Edgar and His Destined Wife

Edgar And His Destined Wife Chapter 515

It was exactly how he treated Jean — patience alone was not enough.

What she needed was mutual respect.

However, as soon as he finished his sentence, Julia stopped praising him.

“Now that you’ve sent the contract over and finished your food, you should leave.”

She invited Hugo over to let Jean know more about him.

From what she heard, they had a good experience visiting the art gallery the other day.

Hugo even sent Jean home.

Since it was the perfect opportunity to get to know each other better, she didn’t want Edgar to ruin it.

Hence, she made herself clear enough.

Edgar already had a plan in mind.

“I have some business to discuss with Mr.Mason about a golf club project south of the city.I think he might be

interested”

He used business as bait.It was slightly despicable of him to do that, but it was useful.

The crucial point was that Edgar was great at deciphering others’ facial expressions.

His bait was right up Hugo’s alley.

After hearing their business conversation, Julia frowned in annoyance, so she went to play with Ellie.

Jean, on the other hand, was listening to the conversation attentively.

She learned a lot from the conversation between the two seasoned businessmen.

She had the chance to learn the art of negotiation from their conversation, and she wanted to make the most out

of it.

Hence, Julia’s plan turned into a business conversation between the three.

Finally, when Hugo left with Ellie, who had fallen asleep, Julia apologized again.

“I will prepare a nice meal another time and make sure no one interrupts us.” Hugo smiled at her warmly.

“I don’t mind.Thanks to you, I got a business deal tonight”

“Good.” Julia thought highly of Hugo because he wasn’t annoyed at all.

When the father and daughter entered the car, she muttered to herself, “It’s too bad that he has a daughter.

But she is cute and well-mannered.

It might not be bad after all’ Edgar heard her.

Wearing a perfectly-ironed suit, he asked calmly, “Does he know about Jean’s pregnancy?”

Julia looked at him defensively.

“What do you mean?” Edgar smiled warmly.

“Nothing.I’m just thinking that if they are serious about dating each other, they’ll have to face each other

honestly.Otherwise, it’s considered cheating: Julia gritted her teeth silently.

“I shouldn’t have let you in just now”

She would never have given in if it wasn’t related to Eyer Group.

Standing opposite her, Edgar replied politely, “Don’t be mad at me.I’m sure we will see each other again”

It was inappropriate to be mad at him since he didn’t step out of line.

As soon as he finished speaking, he coolly walked back to his car.

Julia sighed.

“He shouldn’t have done it if he was going to regret it now!”

The door was closed shut.

In the car, Edgar called Nathan, who grumbled as soon as he picked up the phone.

“I won’t drink with you tonight”

“I’m not asking for a drink.Come to my office to work”

“What?” Nathan complained.

Doesn’t this guy have a transition period between being romantic and being a workaholic? When Edgar left, Jean

watched him with the contract in front of her.

Julia knocked on the door before sending in some desserts and fruits.

“You need a lot of nutrients at your current stage, but don’t force yourself.Just choose what you like.”

Her hands were slightly wet when she put the plate down.

Just as she was about to leave, Jean asked, “Aunt Julia, do you think I should sell the company to Edgar?”

Julia stopped and mulled it over.

“You’re aware that I know nothing about business, but I understand how a man thinks.Since this is the reason Edgar

is using to see you regularly, I’m sure he has a backup plan.Whether you sell it or not, he is well-prepared”

She’s right.

“So, you should only consider your pros and cons.”

With that, Julia dimmed the lights.

“Take your time to think about it.There’s no rush’ Jean nodded.

Indeed, I’m too impatient.

She went to Louisville without any preparation.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have had that encounter.

At that moment, her phone beeped.

Who would it be at this hour? She picked up the call and heard Sheena’’s voice.

“Ms.Eyer, are you free tomorrow? Can I meet you? I would like to discuss Gigi’s situation.

“Sure.”

Jean put her phone down calmly.

The next morning, she went to meet Sheena after getting ready.

They agreed to meet in a park near the city.

The weather was quite pleasant that day.

When the wind blew past, one could smell the faint scent of flowers.

“Ms.Eyer, thanks for meeting me!” Sheena said wistfully.

“Gigi was very immature in the past and did many harmful things toward you.I’m really sorry about that”

Sheena bowed deeply to her.

Ever since Gigi dissolved the contract with her old agency, Jean had many ways to destroy her to the point where

she couldn’t even survive, but Jean didn’t.

Sheena sighed.

“I’ve quit being a manager.Initially, I thought I would never meet Gigi again, but she appeared at my doorstep one

day with all her luggage…”

Jean listened to her quietly.

After Gigi got out of prison, she had nowhere to go.

The news about the plane crash added more stress on top of her already poor mental health.

Under immense pressure, she found Sheena.

She slept and drank all day for the past few days, barely eating anything.

“The doctor found a tumor in her brain that is putting pressure on her nerves.

They took a scan, and the results will be out tomorrow: With that, Sheena shook her head.

“She is still so young.If it’s malignant, or…”

Her voice trailed off.

Jean felt a heavy feeling in her chest upon hearing that.

On her way back home, she dialed Edgar’s number.

“I’m willing to sell Eyer Group to you.I can sign the contract anytime.”

“We still have to discuss the price” Edgar replied, trying to suppress his emotions.

He was confident that Jean would agree, but he didn’t expect it to be this soon.

“Make it quick.”

On the other end, Edgar frowned, “Do you need the money soon? Jean, if something’s up, we can always talk about

it.Just…don’t disappear again, alright?”

“I’m not going away; Jean replied in exasperation.

He replied morosely, “I won’t disturb you and Hugo anymore”

He sounded hurt and sorry.

Jean massaged her temples.

“Thanks.”

After putting down the phone, Edgar thought about their conversation and concluded that something was off.

Next to him, Nathan was tired after working overtime for no reason.

Just as he was about to take a rest, Edgar sat down next to him.

“Find out one thing for me.”

“What?”

“What?”

Nathan felt as though he was a signing machine.

“It’s about Jean.”
