Chapter 212

Chapter 212 Cause Trouble from the Inside

Both of Jean’s cheeks were flushed from being slapped. She bore the pain and didn’t make a single noise. She found the scene of Edgar holding Gigi back extremely funny. Didn’t this man want to torture her like Gigi did?

Jean glared fiercely at the man and woman in front of her. Her gaze was stubborn and obstinate. “Edgar!” Gigi stomped her feet in anger. “She almost killed me and the child…”

When Gigi said that, she suddenly thought of how Jean threatened her to not use the child as a bargaining chip. Her face stiffened and she was stumped for words. Edgar let go and said coldly, “Don’t affect the baby because of her.”

Joy once again appeared on Gigi’s face. Like a little bird relying on people, she leaned on the man’s arm and said delicately, “You still care about me. I understand. I won’t hit her anymore. My hand hurts when I hit her anyway.”

Edgar silently pulled his arm away from her hands and looked at Sam once more. He had restored enough of the Reece family’s reputation.

If Sam didn’t appreciate his kindness, that would mean that Sam wanted to go up against Royden Group and was asking for his own death.

“Mr. Royden, let’s discuss this in the study room!” Sam’s face instantly broke into a smile. He ordered the servants to get drinks and told Winnie in a low voice, “Don’t let Gigi touch her. Keep her. She might be of some use.”

From the bottom of her heart, Winnie didn’t dare do anything to Jean. She was afraid that Jean would include her in her revenge. She nodded immediately. “Don’t worry. I’ll look after Gigi.”

Sam patted her shoulder in a satisfied manner before going into the study room with Edgar. The conversation between them ended quickly.

Edgar walked out in less than ten minutes as Sam sent him off with a smile. From the looks of it, they managed to agree on conditions that both parties were satisfied with.

Jean chuckled with disdain. These were the faces of dishonest businessmen.

They could ignore everything and even bury the hatchet with their own enemies.

In that moment, she understood that the child in Gigi’s stomach wasn’t all that important to those two men. It was a shame that Gigi herself still didn’t understand it.

Seeing Edgar come out, Gigi went up to him happily. She hugged his arm coyly. “Edgar, what do you want to eat tonight? Stay for…”

“No, I have things to do at the office.” Edgar’s expression was apathetic as usual. The next moment, his gaze fell on Jean. He turned around and said to Sam, “Mr. Reece, I’ll take her away.”
