Chapter 154

Refused from Joining the Royden Group

Jean went to MON & Co. and stumbled upon Monica’s car at the entrance. Monica waved at her,
gesturing Jean into her car as if she knew Jean would come today. Jean uttered half-heartedly,
“Director Weller, I’m actually here to sort out my resignation.”

In fact, she really wanted to stay and carry through her ambition but…

Monica turned the steering wheel before she handed Jean a business card, “You have learned a lot in
MON & Co. It’s not a bad idea for you to be an independent designer, given your talent. You don’t have
to waste time in the corporate.”

Jean’s eyes lit up, and she gladly accepted the business card. Jimmy, jewelry broker. “Contact him. He
can help you in your endeavor.” Monica drove into the parking lot. Jean quizzed, “Why did you help me
during the entire time, Director Weller?”

Monica turned off the car engine. She looked at Jean while leaning over, “Haven’t you heard something
about me? I don’t just like going to parties but also like being with women.”

She purposely misled Jean. Then, she simpered and got off the car upon seeing Jean’s bewildered
face. Jean was caught in a daze until she finally understood Monica’s meaning.

No way! Very soon, everyone in the company were aware of Jean’s resignation.

Sally and Kellan came to send her off. Sally wept like a poor little child, “Will you please stay, Jean? I’m
going to miss you so much. I will be so insecure and lonely without you here.”

Jean smiled as she looked at Sally, who had always been dependent on her, and then she looked at
Kellan beside Sally, “Don’t you have a guardian angel now?”



Sally was stunned, and immediately, her face flushed in crimson.

Kellan immediately remarked, “Don’t worry, I will take good care of her.”

“You… What are you talking about! Did I say I need your protection?” Sally bantered Kellan as she
wiped away her tears, “Then what happens to you after this?”

She overheard that Jean had a colossal debt to pay.

How would she live without a job? She had no income!

Jean shook her head, “We’ll see.”

Join the Royden Group?

No f*cking way!

She would compromise for Ben, but she would never compromise to that extent. She wanted to explore
the option that Monica mentioned just now — to be an independent designer.

But only if that man would stop intervening in her life.

“By the way, Jean, have you heard about Mr. Wilton and Zoe?” Sally moved closer to Jean and
whispered, “Everyone in the company said they are…”

Sally divulged all the gossip surrounding Zoe and Mr. Wilton to Jean.

The information was too sinister for Jean to process.

Sky Wilton broke one of his legs. Zoe attempted suicide by drinking poison the other night, but
fortunately, a neighbor saved her in time. Too bad, she had lost her voice as a result of impaired vocal
cords.



Alas, both of them left Yorktown together two nights ago.

Nobody knew why and what happened.

“Don’t you think it’s strange? Mr. Wilton gave up everything he had accomplished in the jewelry industry
and took Zoe abroad. He doesn’t seem like a hasty person.”

It was indeed unusual of Mr. Wilton to undertake that path.

More like they were forced or threatened, and had no choice but to leave the country at once.

A possibility popped up in Jean’s mind, “I still have something to do. I’ll leave first.”

She got into a taxi and straightaway rushed to the Royden Group. At this time, Edgar should be in the
office. But this time, Jean didn’t barge into his office.

She didn’t wish the same awkward situation as the previous time to happen again.

Instead, she gave Miles a call.

A few minutes later, she got on to Edgar’s designated elevator and went up to his office.

“Miss Eyer, please wait for Mr. Royden here.”

“Here?” Jean knitted her brows. Not a good idea. What if Edgar accused her of stealing his things?

But before she could say anything, Miles had already closed the door and left.

Jean was bored. She glanced at the bookshelves. The rows of collectible books attracted her attention,
and she discovered a group photo in a slit.

At first glance, she could tell that this was a dated photo.



Jean had no idea who were the three people in the photo.

She deduced among the three people, two of them were a couple and a short-haired woman she felt
somewhat familiar.

Had she met her before?

Suddenly, Edgar came through. He stared at her with his piercing eyes, “What are you looking at?”

Jean was shocked and almost dropped the photo.

She recomposed herself and cut the chase, “It must be you who got Sky Wilton and Zoe to leave
Yorktown.”

Edgar paused while removing his jacket, but he didn’t say a word.

Jean pursed her lips. She knew he was behind it.

Jean’s attentive gaze made him uncomfortable, “Don’t ask about anything that has nothing to do with
you.”

He didn’t want her to feel burdened.

Before Jean could say anything, they heard a commotion from outside. The next moment, Ben barged
in with several security guards who were trying to stop him from entering the room.

“Jean!” He finally got out of the hospital.

Jean was taken aback. She rushed over to clutch him up, “Are you allowed to discharge already? You
just had an operation, you…”



“I’m worried about you.” He stared into the woman’s eyes. He was afraid that she would abandon him
again and leave this place. He can’t help but squeeze Jean’s hands anxiously.

His emotions and feelings were clearly manifested on his face.

Edgar looked at their entwined hands and didn’t like what he saw.

The man held back his frustration. He raised his hand to gesture for the security guards to back down.

Miles and the security guards left the room at once.

“Come with me, Jean.” He didn’t ask her about her whereabouts in the past few days. All he wanted to
do was take her away from Edgar immediately.

Plop!

Edgar dropped his pen on the table.

He looked at them with his cold eyes. Jean couldn’t identify the thoughts in his complex gaze, “Mr.
Ludwig, you’ve just had an operation, so you are supposed to stay put for the time being. I assume you
won’t be able to participate in the next race. Will you?”

Her heart sank.

She knew Edgar was hinting at her.

“Ben, let’s go out and talk.” She frantically persuaded Ben to get out of the office to talk.

To their surprise, Edgar got up from his chair, “I’ll go out and give you guys some space. Is five minutes
enough?”



He gave Jean a glance before exiting the room.

Edgar left the room to Jean and Ben.

Ben was still holding Jean anxiously, “Last few days, you…”

“Go back and take a good rest, Ben. I’ve just changed jobs so I’ll be very busy after this. I won’t be
involved in the team’s activity for the time being.”

That psychopath Edgar Royden wouldn’t cause Ben harm as long as she stayed away from Ben.

And then he can resume his racing career.

Ben startled, “Change jobs? My mother told me that you’ll be working for Royden Group. Is that true?”

Jean didn’t know what to say, “Not sure yet.”

She really didn’t want to submit to Edgar’s terms and conditions, but she would have to if she had no
choice.

Looking at her hesitation, Ben clenched his fists and said, ” I know that you want revenge, Jean. But it’s
counterproductive to act recklessly. If you need anything, tell me, and I will help you.”

He still refused to give up.

She didn’t want to see Ben get disappointed by this needless infatuation. She had to sever her ties with
him.

Out of desperation, Jean steeled herself and told him off, “How can you help me? Contrary to Edgar,
you are still living under the wings of your parents.”
