Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 188

Chapter 188 Engagement?

Jean feigned ignorance and smiled. “Mr. Royden, I don’t quite understand what you mean. However, it seems we can no longer continue our negotiation. You should figure out how you can explain to her.”

While Edgar could easily destroy Jean whenever he wanted, Jean could use the Reece family to ruin his peace. Sam was shocked to hear Edgar had given a lucrative project to the Eyer Group. Thus, he sent Gigi to find out what had happened.

Although Jean may not be as astute as Edgar in business, she understood women much better than him. “Edgar, open the door!” Gigi continued shouting and almost slammed herself against the door.

Jean glanced at Gigi and said, “Ms. Reece, you should watch your mouth. You could be charged with defamation. Furthermore, you have ongoing court cases, so take it easy. Otherwise, who knows when the police would come knocking on your door again.”

“Are you done speaking?” Edgar responded indifferently. He was unbothered by the Reece family’s threat. However, Gigi was pregnant with his child. It was annoying to have to keep hearing her complaining noisily before him.

“Edgar, I don’t wish to argue with you, but you are too close to Jean. Don’t you know what others would say? How can you not consider my feelings?” Gigi lowered her head and shed a few tears.
