Chapter 370 Opposing Each Other With Equal Harshness

Ellie played happily in the children’s deluxe suite. Not long after, she curled up on the couch and fell asleep. Jean handed her over to the accompanying nanny as she returned to her room.

Only suites were on that floor. She was one floor down. While she was waiting for the elevator, someone pulled her from behind. She was on alert, so she turned and hit the other party’s crucial spot in self-defense.

She heard a dull cry before Edgar held her against the corner of the wall with both hands. The man smiled bitterly. “Did you have to be so vicious?”

If not for his nimble movements as he avoided her attack in time, he would have had to rest in bed for at least a day. “It’s normal to get hit when you stand behind others, Mr. Royden.”

He had been the one to call out from behind her! “Alright, alright. It’s my fault. You didn’t eat much on the plane. Let’s go. I’ll take you around,” he said as he pressed her shoulders and led her into the elevator.

Looking at his hand, Jean pushed it away unwillingly. “Thank you for booking the room for Ellie. I’m sure Hugo will find a way to thank you.” Jean said calmly.

“Are you very close to that child?” Edgar pressed the elevator buttons. His eyes darkened. “That’s none of your concern, is it?” Jean stared at him. “I can choose who I want to spend time with.”

Why does he keep getting involved in her affairs? The man’s biggest problem was not asking for her opinions and ignoring her feelings.

Edgar suppressed the rage that surfaced with some difficulty. “Stay away from Hugo.”

Did she think that Hugo was a simple man if he could stand steadily on his own two feet? No, the man’s tricks were equally matched to Edgar’s.

This was one of the reasons why Edgar felt threatened.

Jean furrowed her brows. “That’s my…”

“Why do you think I booked the room for the child?” He suddenly pulled her wrist and walked to the door quickly.

Everyone could sense that the man was angry, and it was a very serious situation.

“Edgar, are you angry at a child?” Jean couldn’t understand his rage at all. The wrinkle in her brows deepened. “We’ve been divorced for almost two years.”

What she said gently floated into the man’s ears alongside the sea breeze.

His footsteps stopped at that moment.

He looked down, and the corners of his mouth curved as he sneered. “You’re right. I have no right to interfere with your life. Why don’t I understand such a simple concept?”
