Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 483 Chapter 483 After Hiram was done with the documents, he approached Edgar tentatively with a nervous grin plastered on his face.

"I'll be going to the police station now, Mr.Royden. Thank you for understanding.” Edgar had everything he needed to persecute Hiram if he did not cooperate.

However, Edgar wanted to spare him spain. He decided that if Hiram would turn over a new leaf, he would withhold sevidence, which would reduce Hiram's sentence.

Edgar nodded and watched as Hiram bowed deeply before he left.

"If I were spared, Mr.Royden, I hope I can spend the rest of my life serving you" "You'll get the opportunity" Jean blinked at them.

"Why didn't you tellthat you could do this? I wouldn't have bothered Sherry if you toldbefore this!" She was mildly annoyed that she now had to manage things on her own.She was down by one help now that Hiram had decided to turn himself in.

"Let's go back. You must be hungry..." Edgar smiled at Jean as he passed her hat to her.

Jean raised her brows in surprise - she was hungry! Jean allowed Edgar to escort her out of the Royden Tower.

To her surprise, the noisy screams of the reporters were replaced by a peaceful silence.

"Let's go home." Edgar beckoned to her as he opened the car door.

Jean bit her lips in astonishment as it had been ages since she heard this request.

Once she was safely in the car, Edgar started the car, and they began their journey back hin silence.

"I think we should withdraw the lawsuit against Sherry. You and Sherry have a good relationship. Would you be upset if Sherry were dragged to court, which would ruin her reputation?" Edgar frowned, but before either of them could respond, Edgar's phone rang.

Shimmying his phone out, Edgar saw that the caller was Nathan and quickly picked up the phone.

"I heard that Jean went to your company to help you out.Are you guys closer now?" Nathan's voice boomed out of the car speakers as Edgar's phone was connected to the speakers through Bluetooth.

Edgar coughed once as a signal for Nathan to stop talking, but Nathan was oblivious.

"I told you, didn't I? It does not matter how kind Jean is — she is still a woman. Did you even take her feelings into consideration during your divorce proceed--" "Stop it, Nathan!" Edgar yelled as he pulled onto the shoulder of the road.

"I'm with her." Jean watched as Edgar unbuttoned the top button of his shirt as if he suddenly felt like he was suffocating.

"I know! You're..." Nathan began but immediately caught on to what Edgar was talking about.

Appalled, he could not help but let his jaw drop as the words on his tongue evaporated.

Jean grinned at Edgar's side profile as she savoured Nathan's apparent fear.

After a moment, Nathan's meek voice sliced into the silence.

"I wanted to tell you that I reserved a table for two in Riverside Restaurant. They have a great variety of dishes. Get over there, quickly!" Nathan immediately ended the call.

"Oooo, this is bad..." He whispered to himself as he dabbed sweat from his crown. He intended to use this opportunity to butter Edgar up so that he could get the next project. Content rights by Nôvel.Org.

However, his mistake would cost him.

Edgar sighed when he heard the beep that signified the end of the call.

Turning to Jean, he scratched his head, abashed.

"Please don't take Nathan seriously..." "Let's go to Riverside since he reserved a spot for us - it's on the way too, right? I heard that the place is pretty good and would only admit VIPs" Edgar nodded quickly.

"Let's go now" He was surprised that she did not mind Nathan's comment.

Secretly he was overjoyed to be Jean's chauffeur so much that he assumed that Jean had forgotten about their conversation.

That was why he was surprised when Jean dropped a comment about the lawsuit.

"I'll inform my lawyer to drop the lawsuit.I'm sure that will preserve your relationship with the Summer family." What does she mean? I don't have a relationship with the Summer family! "Wait a minute! No..." But before Edgar could reason with her, the view had fully captured Jean's attention.

Jean stepped closer to the wooden railing along the bridge and spread her arms wide as if embracing the cooling breeze.

Edgar felt like he was witnessing the birth of a new masterpiece as he watched Jean's silhouette framed by the amazing landscape.

Whipping his phone out, he covertly took a few pictures of her.

"Aunty Jean!" A young child runs into view, appearing in Edgar's camera frwith Hugo Mason in tow.

"Hey! What a coincidence!" Jean hugged Ellie from the side.

"Sorry, Ellie.I told your father before, but I'd still like to tell you I'm sorry for not being able to visit you" Ellie grinned at her innocently.

"Don't be sorry! My dad toldthat you were busy at work, but I could cto visit you during the school holidays.I could even cook for you!" "Really? You're such a darling!" Jean lowered herself so that she could talk to Ellie at her eye level.

Meanwhile, Hugo towered over them, which made him look like the patriarch of a family.

Edgar did not feel good watching them.

Edgar approached them, but Ellie beat him to the chase.

"My dad has reserved a spot for me. Would you and the uncle join us for dinner?" "Oh no, Jean and I have a discussion, so we won't be joining you." Edgar promptly replied as he placed his hand on Jean's shoulder.

Ellie looked up at the tall man with cold and stern eyes and took a step back in fright.

Hugo quickly picked his daughter up.

"Let's go.Aunty Jean has things to do." He chose not to force Jean into a relationship, but he was willing to go along with Ellie's shenanigans.

"See you, Mr.Royden." Hugo greeted Edgar before leaving with Ellie in his arms.

The creaking of the wooden bridge sounded ominous as the man left them.

"Did you have to be so stern to a child?" Jean seethed as she watched Hugo walk away.

Edgar felt his heart drop.

"I..."

"Ellie was hurt when she was younger. She found it hard to open up to people. You should've been gentler with her" She sighed as she shook her head before turning to enter the restaurant.

Is she upset withbecause I was stern with Hugo's daughter? Edgar was flabbergasted.

Entering the restaurant behind Jean, Edgar was thankful that their table was a distance away from Hugo's table.

Their table was near the window, overseeing the lake, giving them the illusion of sitting on it.

While Jean observed the menu, Edgar observed her.

Jean identified the dish that she wanted to have and informed the waiter.

Edgar, who was too on edge, informed the waiter that he would have the sdish as well, which made Jean slightly annoyed. It would be a waste of Nathan's intentions if we did not enjoy the dinner here.

However, I don't like how he keeps watching me.

Jean thought to herself. Sa**h the Find ovel. et website on Googl access chapters of early and in the highest quality. "Shall we continue our discussion?" Edgar prompted.

"Do you mean the conversation about you and Sherry?" X
