Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 451 Chapter 451 Edgar feigned nonchalance, turning around to look at Jean fondly.

They sat right next to each other, just like an ordinary couple.

Jean shifted to the side and heard the argument between the people in front of her. Search the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

"We can't carry out this case! Why are we always getting the worst?" "I think the law firm takes too much commission." "Shh! What if we are overheard?" Jean recalled everything that had happened in the law firm earlier that day.

Did Edgar plan this out, or am! overthinking? Meanwhile, Edgar looked at her with a ghost of a smile on his handsface.

After those people got off the bus, he didn't explain himself.

At the following stop, Jean also alighted and walked away from the bus stop, ignoring Edgar's tail.

She took a few steps forward before turning around.

"When did you realize?" Edgar's expression beccolder, but he replied warmly, "Since your return. Upon hearing that, Jean's expression immediately changed.I feel like all my plans have been seen through.it's so uncomfortable to be controlled and spied on.She took a deep breath to calm herself down.

"Let's talk' Edgar's gaze darkened.

"Sure." He had never been so compliant with her. He seemed to have beca completely different person at that moment.He matched her pace as he walked alongside her and kept a comfortable distance between them so she wouldn't feel pressured.

As tpassed, the frown on her face eased.

They reached a river.

The breeze ruffled her hair slightly but didn't mess up her thoughts.

Looking at the water, she plucked up her courage and said, "I didn't tell you the truth because I didn't know how to face you" Edgar remained silent, but his expression clearly showed his attitude toward the matter.

Indifference and hesitance were apparent in his eyes, with the former stronger than the latter.

Jean clenched her fists as she explained gently at a slow pace.

"From the furniture you sent back to Eyer Residence, I found Dad's stuff. He knew your intention of marrying me, yet he didn't stop you. Perhaps he was hoping you would put the grudges behind you" Unfortunately, he didn't get to see it happen.

Jean pursed her lips and turned around to face the sun.

"Edgar, I don't hate you, and I mean it" She used to sob and resent her misfortunes.

When daybreak arrived, her rationality would remind her of all the amends he tried to make.

"Even though I'm your enemy's daughter, you still treatedwell. Putting myself in your shoes, I can't hate you any longer." With that, her head drooped.

Finally, she could express the suppressed thought in her mind.

As she slowly unclenched her fists, she added, "Oh, and I looked up the records at the hospital and found out that you weren't responsible for Dad's death. He already had a heart problem, to begin with" He should be unequivocal on that.

Jean waited, but there was no reaction from Edgar.She lifted her head to check and met his conflicted yet gentle gaze.

He slowly raised his hands to lift her chin up.

"Thank you for forgiving me." He pulled her into his embrace.

At that moment, they were finally able to contend with their past and put it behind them.

However, the weather suddenly changed.

In no time, cloudy skies hovered over them.

Edgar quickly brought her to the nearest convenience store to get shelter.

When they arrived, rain poured down from the sky.

Jean stretched her hand out to feel the rain, but Edgar held her hand to stop her.

Her thoughts were in disarray, and she seemed to be ina daze.

"It's cold?" he protested firmly.

Jean's eyes flickered.

She remembered something and quickly retracted her hand, but he didn't let her go.

"Don't blSusan. When you weren't eating, I went over to your place and forced Susan to tell me," he explained.

"Let's do a check-up at the hospital later.I'll accompany you." Jean panicked.

"It's not that. My period came. My appetite hasn't been good for the past few days, that's all." Nôvel(C) content.

He tightened his hold on her hands and frowned.

"Is that so?" Jean seemed to sense a trace of disappointment in his voice.

Is he looking forward to having kids? She gritted her teeth and explained, "I took the morning- after pill.It's impossible." A few months had passed since then.She understood the changes in her body better than anyone else.It was just an excuse not to do a check-up at the hospital.

His searching gaze fell on her face.

"I didn't know you-" "There are plenty of things you don't know about." She smiled and retracted her hand.

"The rain is letting up. Let's go" Their relationship seemed to have cto an end.

No matter how much they tried, they couldn't return to their previous state.

Edgar was still unwilling to let the matter slide.

He caught up with her and said, "I think we should still go to the m hospital. If you have stomach issues, afleast you can get smedications." However, she bought a few candies at the store and ate them.

"Honestly, I'm fine" She chewed on them and took a gulp of water.

"Let's talk about the Reece family" It was an abrupt change of topic.

To avoid her leaving, Edgar followed her lead.

"Let's talk about it at my office.I have something to show you." With that, he opened the car door.

The driver had been following them.

At that instant, Jean felt sorry for him.

After getting into the car, she discovered that Miles was also there.

"I hope he pays you well, Miles. You don't get any vacation, do you?" she asked casually, lightening the atmosphere.

"Mr.Royden does givestoff? Miles lied through his teeth.

In fact, he couldn't remember the last the had a vacation.

Was it two and a half years ago? Due to the fact that Edgar was a om workaholic, everyone in the secretary department barely got any rest. They also didn't dare to ask for a vacation.

As Miles pondered this over, he felt Edgar's gaze and quickly turned to the driver.

"Mr.Hughes, can you go faster?" Once they arrived at his company, they took the elevator.

As soon as the door opened, they met Edbert and his secretary, George Carlson.

Edbert smiled as he said kindly, "You still cto work even though you have dinner with the clients tonight? Edgar, you work too hard. Even though you are young and healthy, you have to take srest.' It sounded as though he genuinely cared about his nephew. "Ms.Eyer, you're here too. It's been a while" Yeah. It's been a while since I almost died in your plan, Jean thought sourly.
