Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 198 Chapter 198 A Cover Nathan gave a dry laugh. "I don't know. You have to ask him." He stammered then, hurriedly took a strawberry and stuffed it into his mouth.

Jean smiled at him. "I thought both of you talk about everything." Nathan started choking, and he patted his chest to soothe the cough. Contents belong to "Slowly, Mr. Knox." Jean's smile grew wider.

Although Nathan did not reveal anything, she was absolutely certain that Edgar had another plan in mind, and Nathan knew about it.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have reacted like this.

Edgar suddenly appeared at the door. He stared at Nathan, who was coughing profusely and frowned. "What's wrong?" "I have to go. I have something else to do!" Nathan shook his head and dashed out.

"What did you do to him?" Edgar's eyes were dark.

Jean ate her strawberry nonchalantly. “Nothing. We only had a casual chat. What can I do to a grown-up man? I've lost my freedom to go anywhere I want. Am I losing my freedom to talk now?" Edgar's temple twitched.

"Do you mean I've taken your freedom away?" Jean casted him a dispassionate look.

Susan tried to hold her chuckle back. “Master, I'm going to prepare lunch now. Why don't you go have a walk in the garden with Ms. Eyer? The weather is good today." Edgar gave Jean a look. A while later, he said, "Forget it." She would never have a walk with him.

He knew too that Jean was dying to leave this place.

But he didn't want to let her leave.

Edgar turned around and entered his study. He closed the door with a bang.

Jean was stunned for a moment. Did he just let her go? Just as she was still thinking about it, Susan had started preparing the ingredients for lunch.

Jean smiled as she walked over, "Susan, can you teacha few dishes?" "Do you wish to learn?" Susan was surprised. She knew that Jean was a pampered lady. She would not do such chores if she wasn't in difficulty.

Jean hummed with a smile. "Well, we must learn how to take care of ourselves." She was used to standing on her own feet as she had to learn everything herself.

Susan felt sorry for Jean.

But soon, she gathered herself and started giving instructions. "Wash the cucumber and radish. Then, shred them. We shall start with cold dishes." "Okay!" Jean happily went to the opposite of Susan.

Susan watched Jean hum while washing the vegetables. She felt a little lost inside. If that didn't happen back then, she wouldn't have...

The distressed feeling Jean had from being imprisoned in this house was converted into enthusiasm to learn cooking.

She was after all very new to this.

Therefore, the food served for lunch and dinner appeared in different sizes.

Edgar looked at the cold dish in front of him. He sighed. "Susan, what's this?" Before Susan could answer Edgar, Jean quickly said, “I pestered Susan to teachhow to cook. Don't blher." Edgar frowned.

He glanced at the band aid on her finger and spoke in a low voice. "A waste of time." Jean hummed in dissatisfaction.

She didn't care if he thought it was a waste of time, she wanted to learn.

Her staying in this villa was the real waste of time, in fact.

It was late at night and Jean was about to sleep.

Suddenly she heard a loud cry outside.

She gently opened the door and looked downstairs.

Gigi was standing in front of Edgar with tears streaming down her face. "Edgar, I was sent overseas by the company for an event. I just learnt about your injury. I rushed here right after I landed. Please don't be upset with me." Edgar merely grunted.

Gigi stretched her hand and touched the wound on his forehead gently. "It must hurt so much! That Tyler Sans is a lunatic!" Jean frowned hard. She had guessed what was going on between them both. It was already so late, yet Gigi had chere...

Sure enough, after a little conversation, Gigi leaned weakly against Edgar's chest.

She drew circles on his chest with her finger. "I was really worried about you. I've postponed all my jobs. I will stay back and look after you these few days." "No..." Before Edgar could speak, Gigi kissed him on the lips.

But because his elbow was injured, he could not move.

Gigi held Edgar's injured arm, and succeeded in kissing him.

Jean witnessed everything under the dim light.

She closed her door and locked it.

She would be free after tonight.

Since there was someone to take care of Edgar, she need not stay back anymore.

Jean lied down on the bed. She closed her eyes and told herself to sleep.

But thoughts kept flooding her head. At the stime, Jean felt frustrated for being upset at Edgar and Gigi's intimacy.

When it was almost dawn, the sound of Gigi's laughter woke Jean up.

"Edgar, why don't I make you breakfast? Would you like to have ssoup?" Jean opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling. She hated Gigi even more.

It had nothing to do with Edgar. It was because Gigi had ruined her dreams.

Jean looked at the ton her phone then she got out of bed.

As soon as she opened the door, she could smell something burning.m Immediately after she saw Gigi frowning and complaining about how Susan did not help her. "Edgar, your maid is so stupid. Look at what she did to my hands!" Edgar kept quiet.

Susan did not know what to do. She apologized profusely, "I'm so sorry, Ms. Reece. I...” As soon as Gigi heard Susan saying her name, she got even more furious.

She tugged onto Edgar's arm and spoke coquettishly.

"Edgar, I will bring my maid over this afternoon to look after you. I don't really like this maid of yours." Gigi said. Then she heard snoise coming from upstairs. She stopped looking at Susan and tuned to look at Jean, who was walking down the stairs. Jealousy was seen in her eyes.

Jean raised her eye and their gazes met.

Her eyes were cold. She wished to tell Gigi off. She could vent her anger toward Edgar on Gigi as well.

However, Gigi's reaction surprised everyone.

She held back the fierce jealousy which was burning her heart.

She got up and smiled as she walked over to Jean. "I'd like to thank you on Edgar's behalf for taking care of him during my absence." Thanks?

"Oh, right. I heard that Eyer Group obtained the right to collaborate with Royden Group today I'm not really good in business, but you can call this person if you need help. She is my father's secretary." Gigi's lips curled upwards with a satisfied smile.

So what if Jean was by Edgar's side? The rightful lady of the house would be the one who can help Edgar in his business!
