Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 308 Chapter 308 Undeniable Truth He had assumed Jean had set aside what had happened and forgiven them. He was surprised that she was still holding a grudge. He headed towards where she was with Paul in tow. "Don't worry about it. She can't have gotten far. She probably hasn't arrived yet." "That place has stayed abandoned ever since the accident. We spread rumors of it being haunted just to prevent anyone from prodding further. It successfully deterred all the other children, except for Jean." "That's life though, isn't it?" The sky darkened as they drove. It didn't take long for darkness to descend upon them. Paul suddenly saw a silhouette on the side of the road.

"There!" They drove over to see that it was Jean sitting on the pavement in a daze. "My child, are you okay?" Paul called out as he hobbled over. "Let's go back." Jean looked up at him with eyes full of grief.

Her fingers were scratched up and stained with blood. As if she had dug with her bare fingers for hours. She gripped half of a jade pendant tightly in her hand. It was the other half of the pendant that Gigi used to trick Edgar with.

It turned out that the pendant always had two pieces. It took coming to that place for Jean to remember that her father had brought her here when she was young and buried that jade pendant himself.

"Jean, you have a sister! You should help your parents to find her." But Jean couldn't believe that Gigi was her sister! What happened in the Reece family? What sort of unspeakable things had Sam done? Jean did not say a word while Paul took her home. She had dinner and went to bed without a sound. Three days had passed when Jean left a note and returned to the city.

Because something had happened to Gigi. Jean arrived at the hospital to find it packed with reporters. "Gigi almost strangled her own son to death! Do you think she's suffering from postpartum depression?" "Impossible! I bet it's because she's afraid that he'll affect her rise to stardom. I heard that she received all sorts of endorsements and movie role offers because of her relationship with Edgar after she gave birth. And she agreed to them!" "She wouldn't have had a chance with the Roydens if it weren't for that son of hers." The reporters huddled together and shared speculations.

Jean pulled the brim of her cap lower to cover her face. She attempted to walk past them into the hospital, but it was so crowded that she couldn't even get through into the foyer. “Jean?" Contents belong to Winnie and the nanny bumped into Jean when they emerged from the side gate. Both of them were avoiding the reporters as well. "Where is Gigi?" She wasn't sure if she could even help Gigi, but she had to try so long as there was a slight chance she could.

Winnie was shocked. She was hesitant. "I'm sure you've seen the news. Everyone's making wild assumptions and saying hurtful things about her. I don't think it's a good idea for you to see her now." Jean frowned as she glanced at the main entrance.

"I'm here to help." Even Gigi's nanny didn't believe her.

Everyone knew the rumors about how Edgar was treating Gigi poorly because he was still in love with his ex- wife. This was probably why Gigi's postpartum depression was left unchecked, and she had even tried to... Winnie stared at Jean and whispered, "Really?" She was filled with questions. Winnie couldn't understand what Jean's motives were.

Jean nodded, "I need to see her to know how I can help her." "Then cwith me." Winnie led her upstairs. She would occasionally turn to glance at Jean. "Where have you been?" "Just around." Jean brushed her off.

There was no need for her to divulge that information.

Winnie chuckled awkwardly. "I'm just worried about you. You're all on your own. You need to look after yourself and stay safe." "Let's pick up the pace." Jean didn't want to spend more tthan necessary with Winnie pretending to care about her.

If Winnie truly cared about her and her father, she wouldn't have left them in the first place.

Winnie led her to the rooms reserved for VIPs. "Those reporters are a menace. Edgar arranged for her to stay here just so she could rest." Winnie wanted to see how Jean would react.

However, as if she hadn't heard a thing she said, Jean pushed open the door and strode in.

Gigi was on the phone with Linda, discussing PR and what their best move would be. She was surprised when the door opened abruptly.

She was so shocked that she almost dropped her phone.

"It's you?" Gigi froze. Jean snatched the phone out of her hand.

Jean hung up the call and stood in front of the window, looking down at the mass of reporters waiting outside. "Stay away from the windows. Don't let them see you." Gigi was about to say something, but she hurriedly took a step back.

Jean knew what she was thinking.

"Don't worry. I'm not here to trick you into confessing the truth." Jean stared at Gigi. She felt as if someone had stabbed her in the heart repeatedly. But she couldn't let her emotions take control of her.

Gigi couldn't find out that they were related, for the tbeing, at least.

Gigi looked down. "Then what are you doing here?" "That child isn't Edgar's." Jean looked Gigi up and down with eyes cold as ice.

Gigi trembled. She shook her head in denial. "He is Edgar's!" Jean rubbed her temples. “Is that how you're planning to answer when a reporter asks you that? Do you really think that after being sued by Royden Group, detained by the police, and sentenced to jail, Andy would give you and Edgar his blessings?" Gigi froze.

"He will drag your ninto the mud with him. His career and future went up in flames. Trustwhen I say that he will not let the woman he was involved with have her happy ever after with Edgar." Andy was the kind of person who even if the child wasn't his, he would stir up false rumors to slander Gigi.

Gigi slumped over on the bed and shook her head in denial. "How did things end up this way..."

Jean stared at her. "The only way you can turn this around is if you turm in yourself in and admit to being an accomplice of Andy's and stealing Royden Group's consultation." "What?!" Gigi shook her head even more fervently. "That's impossible. Get out. I don't want to see you." Jean took out her phone. After typing on it, she showed Gigi what she had written.

Gigi was shocked. "Will you really do that?" She didn't know why Jean was helping her. Or could this be another trap?

"I want to end things with Edgar completely, and you want to protect yourself and your child. Isn't this the En best way to do both?" Gigi was convinced.

She bit her lip and nodded slowly. "Okay." Twenty minutes later.

Winnie held Gigi up as they exited the hospital. She faced the cameras and sobbed, "I did not hurt my child."

"But there's a video of you hurting your child in the hospital. You were even recorded saying that you wanted to kill him!" "Ms. Reece, is that child really yours and Mr. Royden's?" Jean had prepared her for these questions.

Gigi clasped her hands tightly and gritted out, "Whoever slanderswill be talking to my lawyer!" X
