Chapter 276 Unexpected Occurrence

It was natural for Gary to not want his daughter to be aware of Joey’s existence, but the family maids might have noticed something.

Brigid froze for a brief moment before shaking her head. “His priority has always been you; it’s Winnie who kept pestering him, and he never truly liked her.”

From what she could tell, his love for Jean surpassed any father in the world. She was his most precious treasure.

However, after hearing her question, Brigid suddenly remembered something.

“One night, though, he was feeling unwell, and a beautiful young woman sent him back. Yeah, that happened once,” Brigid said, trying hard to recall the past.

“Do you remember what she looked like?” Jean asked.

“It’s been so long. I can’t really remember the details. I only remember having the impression that she’s breath-taking.” Brigid shook her head helplessly.

Jean laughed when she saw her thinking hard. “Brigid, there are many beautiful women in the world. It can’t be–”

Suddenly, a distant memory flooded her mind.

She was very young, and was playing hide and seek with her father, when he told her, “Don’t grow up to be an extremely beautiful lady, Jeannie. It’s enough to be as kind and loving as your mom.”

Right in front of her, Brigid also sank into a vortex of memories.

“Your mother was such a beautiful and kind woman. She’s worth being held closely by Mr. Eyer in his entire lifetime.”

That’s right. The woman he cared about the most was my mom. Perhaps, that’s the answer to the puzzle he left.

The more she thought about it, the higher the possibility. The next morning, she went to Royden Group as soon as she woke up, because she had lost track of the jade bangle and wanted to get it back.

However, she did not get to meet Edgar. Instead, she heard from the employees that he was injured, so had stayed at home.

“Jean?”

Coincidentally, Nathan saw her as soon as he walked out of the elevator.

“Hi.” She nodded at him as a form of greeting before walking out hurriedly.

Nevertheless, he quickly chased up with her. “Are you here for Edgar? I have something to pass to him as well. Should we go together?”
