Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 325 Chapter 325 She Must Be Imprisoned Unfortunately, Ben arrived a step too late. When he rushed to Eyer Residence, he realized Jean had never returned. Furthermore, the doors of Eyer Residence were tightly shut, and the place looked dilapidated.

Then, he called the assistant and found out Gigi's lawyer applied to expedite the court case and requested that Jean be detained. Having a sister like Gigi was nothing but torture to Jean.

If Jean had not repeatedly asked Ben to keep the secret, he would have exposed everything to stop Jean's suffering. It was a quiet night.

Jean sat alone in the single cell and looked at the narrow window with a bitter smile. Suddenly, she heard footsteps outside the door. "Jean Eyer, someone's here to see you." She had not been sentenced to prison yet. For now, she was only being detained. She glanced at the night sky. Who would chere to seeat this hour? "Mr. Edbert?" Jean saw sresemblance to Edgar in the face before her. But unlike Edgar, Edbert had a kindly smile. Jean watched him slowly take a seat and asked, "Why are you here?" Edbert must have connections in this place. Otherwise, he would not be able to chere this late at night. Furthermore, he was allowed to meet her alone without being watched by a guard.

It seemed he had taken care of everything. Jean could not help but feel a little anxious about his appearance. "I've told you before. You were my niece-in-law. Even if you and Edgar are divorced, you are still family to me." Then, he placed a lunchbox on the table and pushed it to her.

"Please eat. You'll be in court tomorrow. It will be tiring," Edbert said with a deepening smile.

Jean did not move but looked at him and said softly, "If you have any matters, you can say them now. I'm not hungry, and I don't have an appetite." Jean did not know what Edbert was planning.

However, she knew Edbert and Edgar would not do anything without a good reason. Thus, Edbert would never chere late at night to send her supper.

Jean's expression was calm. She did not say anything else.

She knew the cardinal rule at the negotiating table was never to show impatience.

Meanwhile, Edbert kept observing her and gradually nodded. "You are indeed the most suited to be my niece-in- law. I viewed your marriage to Edgar favorably in the past. However, I didn't realize Edgar wanted to seek revenge against your father." Jean's heart skipped a beat.

"I hope you can forgive Edgar and let go of the past. After the trial ends tomorrow, I will provide you with smoney. It will be enough for you to spend when you leave. What do you think?" "You wantto leave?" Contents belong to Jean's gaze becguarded.

Edbert held his walking stick with both hands. His smile gradually faded as he said, “Your presence will only lead to more strife between the three of you. Thus, having you leave is the best option." After saying that, he stood up.

His tone turned cold. "If you refuse to accept my suggestion, the consequences could be unfavorable to you. After all, a fight between sisters is never a good thing." He knows! "What did you say? Explain yourself." Jean rushed to him, but the automatic steel door blocked her way. All she could do was watch Edbert leave.

Her heart beat faster.

How did Edbert know Gigi and I are sisters? Jean suddenly found an explanation for sof the matters. Edbert could be the one who called her to that village. Furthermore, he probably 'took care' of Gigi during her hospitalization.

The guards brought Jean back to her room, but she could not fall asleep.

The following morning, all the reporters in the city crowded before the court entrance.

"Did you hear? The Reece family will reveal all the evidence today. I think Jean will be sent to prison this time.” "It's her fault for not laying low and insisting on causing a scene at the Reece family's banquet. I heard the Reece family recently searched around for sgood lawyers. They must be planning to get Jean sentenced to prison." "The strife of the wealthy is scary to us commoners." "He's here! That's Edgar's car!" The crowd rushed to the car and surrounded it.

Miles turned to Edgar from the front passenger seat. "Mr. Royden, should we enter through the backdoor?" "No, remember what I told you. Tis of the essence," Edgar instructed and opened the car door.

Miles nodded, "Yes, Mr. Royden." The reporters immediately surrounded Edgar.

"Mr. Royden, Gigi is suing Jean today. Which side are you on?" "There is already evidence for this case; why does it remain unconcluded for so long? Is there a reason for its delay?" "Mr. Royden, please answer our questions." Edgar looked at the reporters coldly. "The court will judge the matter fairly. I have no comments.” Then, he headed toward the steps.

Meanwhile, Ben also arrived in his car.

"Mr. Ludwig, do you think Jean will lose the case today?" A reporter pointed his microphone at Ben.

"No." Ben glanced at the nearby Edgar and said firmly, "I will pick her up from court today." Then, he pushed past the reporters and headed into the court.

Ben was always known to be impulsive. Thus, the reporters turned around and surrounded Edgar.

However, they were unable to get any answer from him.

Jean was brought to court. She saw the reporters pointing their cameras at her and looked away.

Apart from the reporters, she could also sense a cold gaze constantly watching her.

She did not have to look around to know whose it was.

When the officers brought Jean into the court, she seemed pale and weak.

People wondered if she was unwell or acting.

"Plaintiff and defendant. The court has received the evidence you provided previously and has m completed reviewing and deliberating them. Do you have any new evidence to provide to the court?" "Yes." Gigi immediately produced a copy of her child's health report.

"My son's condition keeps weakening. I..." She suddenly burst into tears.

Everyone in the courtroom looked at her with pity.

Even the jury pitied her.

However, Jean's gaze was calmer than anyone in the glanced at Ben, whom. She m sat at the side, and shook her head slightly. Ben was furious. He kept glaring at Gigi.

That prompted Gigi to cower and not dare to cry anymore.

When Ben left, she breathed a soft sigh of relief. Sensing everyone m watching her Gigi suppressed her glee and looked up slowly. "Plaintiff, do you have other evidence to submit to the court?" Gigi shook her head. "During this time, my family and I kept facing disruptions. I hope the court will grant us justice." A reporter whispered in secret, "It seems Gigi insists on sending Jean to prison." "Of course. She needs Jean imprisoned to secure her position as Mrs. Royden." X
