Chapter 536

It was said that the calm before the storm was the scariest. However, the upheaval in the business circles in the following three days was even more frightening.

Edgar’s various measures throughout the company soon showed results.

The directors and managers close to Edbert did not dare to show up in the company. They also refused to answer any call from George or Edbert.

Despite George pulling strings, he could not get Xena released from the detention center.

At this moment, Edbert sat in a black car and looked ahead coldly.

Hmph, my nephew finally wises up.” He glared at the steel door. “I shouldn’t have let Jean leave that place alive.”

Previously, he planned to keep her as his pawn for future use.

But now, he regretted his decision.

George sat in the front passenger seat and patiently waited for Edbert’s next instruction.

“Make sure her mouth is sealed. This matter shall end here.” Edbert slowly shut his eyes and decided to remove Xena.

George seemed to have expected this.

Sure. I’ll get it done straight away.”

George opened the door and got out of the car.

Once the door closed, Edbert smirked coldly and said, “Tony, I need you to keep an eye on that fellow. Nothing has been going well recently. I don’t want someone to stab me in the back suddenly.” “Yes, sir,” the driver answered and drove the car toward the hospital.

The ward was spacious, so Edbert moved around in his electric wheelchair and arrived outside Gigi’s room. However, bodyguards were keeping watch, so he could not get near.

Please wait a moment. I’ll check on her first.” Andrew came over as soon as he got out of the surgery room.

The nurse paused and watched Andrew enter Gigi’s room before muttering, “Dr. Walterson is so attentive to Gigi. I don’t see him treating the other patients this well.”
