Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 177 Chapter 177 TWon't Wait Nathan hesitated for a moment. He believed Jean's response was within Edgar's expectations. Therefore, he followed Edgar's instruction and answered, “Garrison Group must not change its nfor a year and shall not compete in any business with Royden Group." Jean sneered and asked, "What about one year later?" "That's up to you, Ms. Eyer." Jean glanced at the transfer document. "Royden Group has already robbed Eyer Group of all its business. Now, Edgar still refuses to letchange the company nor take back what was mine. What use is an empty shell of a company to me?" Edgar is toying with me. Or, he is trying to distractso that I won't disturb Gigi for a year. That way, Gigi can give birth to their child in peace. What meticulous planning.

Unfortunately for him, I'm not as gullible as I was before. While my father made a mistake in trusting Edgar, I won't do the same. "Ms. Eyer, you mustn't think of it this way. It is good news for you. Otherwise, this company will likely..." "Mr. Knox, my grudge with Edgar is not something that can be resolved with him givingthis company." Jean interrupted him and looked at him with eyes cold as a frozen lake. “What I want is to destroy his reputation and wealth and make him disappear from Yorktown forever." Nathan sighed helplessly. "Must you go down this path?" Jean's eyes becshrouded with sadness. She got up and said indifferently. "Alternatively, he can turn back tand bring my father back from the dead." I will never accept a compromise. Everyone who committs wrong must be punished. "Can't you be sensible?" Nathan tried to stop Jean from leaving.

He rushed after Jean as she circled past a neighboring table and accidentally saw Gigi and Director Lewis. Director Lewis even wrapped his arm around Gigi's shoulder like it was the most natural thing. They seemed intimate.

"Jean? Nathan..." Gigi's face turned pale, and she stood up immediately. "Mr. Knox, please don't misunderstand. We are discussing business." "You... Argh." Nathan did not know what to say. By the the looked away from Gigi, Jean had already left. He turned around to leave. At the stime, Gigi quickly put on her coat and followed him.

"Mr. Knox, can you please not tell Edgar about this? I'm here to negotiate a film role." Gigi was so anxious that she nearly cried. She kept promising that she would never attend such a gathering again.

Nathan glanced at Gigi and looked away helplessly. "There is no point tellingthis. Compared to Jean, you are still lacking a lot of things." Before Gigi could react, Nathan had already driven his car away.

"Why did Nathan and Jean meet? Could it be..." Gigi's phone rang as she was thinking. It was a call from Andy.

She glanced at it and rejected the call in frustration.

Meanwhile, Jean smirked as she watched the scene from a distance.

"Mr. Royden, your household is a mess." Then, Jean left and strutted back to the hotel.

She sat at the table opposite Gigi's and ordered a table full of delicacies to treat herself. The food in this restaurant was all costly.

When Jean returned to the restaurant, Gigi explained to Director Lewis that she had just met a friend.

"Is that lady your friend?" Director Lewis could not stop staring at Jean's beautiful face and was instantly attracted to her.

Gigi noticed his longing gaze and thought of a plan.

"Yes, she is a close friend of mine. Do you wish to know her? I'll talk to her now." Gigi cand stood before Jean. She watched Jean enjoying the food and sneered, "Are you gorging yourself on food because you failed to seduce Nathan?" Jean glanced at Gigi before taking a look at Director Lewis. "What about you? You chere and cheated on Edgar. Aren't you scared that someone could see?" "Shut up! I'm here to negotiate business. Don't you know who he is? He is the most popular director in the film industry this year. Moreover, he thinks you look okay and would like to meet you." Gigi seemed excited, as if she had becfamous all over the world.

She spoke to Jean as if she was giving Jean a pittance.

"You should go and greet him now. I'm only introducing him to you for Edgar's sake. You should know ordinary people do not get such a chance." "What kind of chance? Is it a chance to dine or sleep with him?" Jean's voice was clear and loud enough for people at the surrounding table to hear.

The director's face immediately blanched.

"You..." Jean glanced at Gigi indifferently. The coldness in her eyes caused Gigi's expression to falter slightly.

"I'm telling the truth!" "Sure, I'll head over to have a look." Jean put down her cutleries and headed toward the director's table. As she passed by Gigi, she warned, "You have better not regret this.” Gigi panicked. She tried to drag Jean back despite not knowing what Jean would be up to.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Jean cto Director Lewis and smiled at him.

She was far more elegant and noble than Gigi. Furthermore, she had a gorgeous appearance that put Director Lewis in awe.

"Ms. Eyer, have you considered being an actress? I'm still looking for the third female lead. You should consider this opportunity, Ms. Eyer." Gigi's eyes widened in shock.

"Director Lewis, didn't you say there's only the fourth female lead role left?"

She spent a lot of effort and socialized with Director Lewis for a store few days to only get the fourth geXthe T female lead role. Yet, Jean, who was never an actress, easily got a better role than her. Jean chuckled to herself. Gigi is blinded by fand fortune. How can she be this stupid to trust this kind of person? The director cleared his throat unhappily. "That role is more suitable for you. I assign roles based on a person's appearance and suitability to a role." In other words, it meant Gigi had an unremarkable appearance.

However, Gigi refused to give up. "Director Lewis, since the third female lead role is vacant, can't you give it to me?"

Jean listened to Gigi's coy words and took the chance to refuse the offer. "Thank you, Directo Lewis, but I' know nothing about acting. Gigi, on the other hand, is born an actress. She puts up convincing acts." Those words sounded like a veiled mockery.

Gigi glared at Jean furiously.

"Anyway, I'll take my leave and leave co Jean got up you to dine in peace." Jean and swept her hand under the table to grab the recording device she had placed there earlier. The device had been recording everything Gigi and Director Lewis said while Jean was meeting Nathan.

Director Lewis could not stop at Jean even as she walked away. Contents belong to Gigi knew all too well the significance.

Thus, she pretended to recall something suddenly. "Last night, Jean invitedto a hotel for a poker game. I've almost forgotten about it." "A hotel?" Director Lewis becinterested.

"Yes, we have a few friends from outside the city who are visiting. Director Lewis, are you interested?"
