Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 153

Chapter 153 Precautionary Steps

His sense of boundaries seemed to have gone as he was becoming more unreasonable by the day. Jean bit her bottom lip and took a deep breath. “Fine, you win.”

She reached out her hand. “Give it to me.” Edgar hadn’t expected her to agree that easily. He quirked an eyebrow as he handed his phone over.

She lowered her eyes and entered a phone number without looking through the contact list. It wasn’t Ben’s number, but Farra’s. “Mrs. Ludwig, it’s me.”

“Jeannie, where are you? We’ve looked everywhere but couldn’t find you. Benny almost went crazy.”

Jean’s eyelids fluttered as she choked up. It had been a while since someone had missed her like so. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Ludwig. I have some things to attend to and can’t go back for some time. Is Ben doing well?”

The man grabbed Jean’s wrist. Farra sighed. “Benny’s operation went well. But he kept worrying about you and refused to rest. He just fell asleep.”

Jean was about to speak when Edgar pulled her. She lost her balance and fell into his lap. He gave her a warning look. She said hesitantly, “Mrs. Ludwig, please tell Ben that I’m… I may not work at MON & Co. anymore. I might go to Royden Group instead.”

Before Farra could respond, the call was ended. When she came to her senses, she noticed that the number that Jean had used was easy to remember. It was a string of nines.

She looked toward Ben, lying in his bed. When she remembered the rumors circulating among the affluent housewives, she furrowed her forehead. “Is that good enough for you?”

Jean raised her hand and pushed him away. Edgar felt reluctant to let her go. With a flick of the wrist, he placed his hands on her waist. “If it wasn’t for Ben, you and I would never have…”

“I would never get anywhere near you for the rest of my life. I wouldn’t have looked at you for even a second if you hadn’t threatened me with Ben.”

She yelled angrily.

She struggled away from him and quickly left the study.

I shouldn’t have gone in!

As she passed by the master bedroom and remembered that Gigi was inside, she went straight down to the guest room.

Early the next morning, Jean hadn’t regained her senses when she heard Gigi yelling from the living room. A video of yoga for pregnant women was playing in the background.
