Chapter 357

Chapter 357 She Isn’t Kind

Jean glanced at him in a clearly disbelieving gaze. “I’ve met Nathan here before, but you’ve never been here?” She didn’t believe him.

It was normal for the business world to have social niceties of drinking alcohol and singing together. Some people would even have special habits.

Edgar could distinctly feel that she was looking at him differently. Coldness streaked across his brows. “So, are you going to go in? Otherwise, let’s leave right now.”

“No.” Jean coughed. “Anyway, it has nothing to do with me. I was just asking casually.” She quickened her steps after she said it. It was as if she didn’t feel the cold gaze of the man next to her.

The frown on the bridge of Edgar’s nose tightened. He should look for an opportunity to talk things over with her. “Mr. Royden, please wait here for a moment. Ms. Campbell will be here shortly.”

Hearing it, Jean was very certain. The boss of the clubhouse was Serena. Whatever Joey had told Jean was a lie. About knowing Jean’s dad and being filled with admiration.

Jean got angrier the more she thought about it. Once the door opened, she stared straight at Serena, who walked in. She sneered. “You’ve hidden quite well, Ms. Campbell.”

But Serena smiled. “I was doing it for the sake of the company’s development. I hope you don’t mind, Ms. Eyer. Come in.”

She directed it at the door, and Joey immediately dragged Julie in, who had gone missing.

Julie was wearing a miniskirt, showing off her figure, and she had exquisite makeup on.

Jean couldn’t understand it at all.

Serena smiled lightly. “It wasn’t easy for you to come all the way, Mr. Royden. You must try some of the drinks here. Pour a drink for Mr. Royden.”

She directed the last sentence at Julie.

Julie bent her head and went to Edgar. She said shyly, “Here, Mr. Royden.”

Someone who just had food poisoning and was in the ICU wasn’t resting in the hospital. Instead, she appeared at such a place to entertain guests.

Jean couldn’t hold back her rage.

She frowned and glared at Serena. “Ranford can just tell me if they don’t want to work with me. There’s no need to resort to such tricks, is there?”

Such tricks were filthy.

Furthermore, Jean screened each and every employee that Eyer Group hired. Julie had a pretty good résumé and a decent work ability. How could she have fallen into such a state in a few short months?

Serena acted like she didn’t understand.

“Ms. Eyer, you must be mistaken. We’re turning down the partnership with Eyer Group because of problems with your company’s reputation. Eyer Group violated the contract first. According to the contract, you should compensate Ranford two times the damages.”

Jean scoffed in a rage.

As it turns out, all the schemes were for the contract violation penalty.

She only had herself to blame. She had been preoccupied with plotting against that old geezer Sam that she had forgotten about this.
