Chapter 382 Hurting Each Other

It happened a few times before. Sam took her somewhere while she was asleep and let disgusting older men have their way with her. Gigi clenched her fists. She pulled out her phone and searched for a number.

“Let’s meet. I need to tell you something about Jean.” Edgar spent the whole day with Jean. He accompanied her to have any food she wanted and did anything she liked to do.

“Don’t you have to go to the company?” Jean saw him going to the kitchen to get more food and immediately tried to stop him. “I’ve eaten more than enough. I can’t eat anymore.”

Edgar turned around and looked at her briefly before saying, “You should eat more and gain some weight. That should stop other men from desiring you.”

Although Jean could have changed her mind and decided to be with him, Edgar realized what Nathan said also made sense.

Jean smiled and accepted the apple he pushed to her. “Sure…”

Susan was busy in the kitchen and could not help but smile happily as she listened to their conversation. “This is wonderful. Mr. Royden finally settles down with the right person.”

Who would have known that a disaster would lead to happiness?

Suddenly, Edgar’s phone buzzed. He looked at the screen and frowned.

Jean smiled understandingly. “Don’t mind me. I’ll go and watch TV.”

“All right. I’ll be back soon.”

Edgar headed to the study on the second floor to answer the call. His expression turned cold as he listened to Miles’ report.

“Are you sure?”

His voice turned hoarse, and his eyes became shrouded with conflicting emotions.

“Mr. Royden, I’ve checked it many times. Ms. Eyer met with Mr. Shaw after something happened to you.”

Edgar’s gaze became cold as ice.

He gripped his phone. After a moment, he forced out these words. “No, she would never collaborate with Andy.”
