Chapter 214

Chapter 214 Malice

“Mr. Royden, will you still be going to the office?” The driver asked in a low voice as he could clearly feel the drop in temperature in the car.

“No,” Edgar said and opened the car door. When the concert ended, Jean wished that it could go on forever.

Her liking of the band used to be because she admired them. After going through so much, it was a different feeling when she listened to those songs again.

Ben was beside her. “Let’s go.”

Jean said, “Mm. There’s a café downstairs. Let’s go there. I have something to say to you.”

“… Okay.”

Jean sat on a seat by the window, and she smiled a little. “During this time, Ludwig Group has developed quite well under your leadership. I saw it on the news.”

Ben felt that she was a stranger when she acted like this.

He pushed a cup of coffee to her. “Reporters like to exaggerate.”

Jean rubbed her fingers against the cup of coffee and said, “Mm. I think that I should take some responsibility for the incident that happened, so I…”

“Jeannie, stop.”

A dark expression swiveled around in Ben’s eyes. He interrupted Jean and said, “No matter what you have to say, I don’t want to hear it today. Just let me be for this one time, alright?”

Jean frowned. “Don’t be so childish. What needs to be said has to be said sooner or later.”

“You haven’t seen how I will become after today. I will make Ludwig Group better. Then, no one will dare to bully or threaten you.”

He had never been so sure of anything before.

Even with racing, Ben had always had a playful attitude. But now, he was serious.

Edgar was just another person.

As long as Ben was willing to learn, before long, he could be a worthy opponent of that man.

Jean’s lips twitched. “There are some things that I don’t want you to get involved in. Edgar and I…”

Before she could finish, her gaze was fixed on a figure behind the door.

There was a coldness coming from him. His black coat was dotted with snow from the night. He looked around the lounge emotionlessly and walked to Jean at a fast pace when he saw her.
