Chapter 189

He Had No Right to Do That

No matter how bad-tempered Edgar was, Jean remained calm. “Mr. Royden, while you can take up my
working hours as a business partner of Eyer Group, you have no right to question my private life.”
Edgar stared at her confident expression and clenched his fist.

“I…” However, before he could speak, Jean stepped out of the elevator and dashed to the meeting
room. Miles stood by the door, holding a stack of documents. He noticed Edgar and Jean’s stern
expressions and did not dare to speak.

“Give her all the documents, and don’t let her leave until she has memorized them all,” Edgar ordered
fiercely and left. He could not resist bursting into fury whenever Jean opposed him.

It angered him to see her treating the Ludwig family members so nicely. Edgar rubbed his temple and
felt he had gone mad. Meanwhile, Nathan heard what happened and rushed to Edgar as soon as he
finished work. “You gave Eyer Group such a lucrative project. Those old geezers in your company must
be furious.”

Edgar looked up indifferently. He knew the different fractions in Royden Group were now at war against
him. Some had received benefits from Ludwig Group, while others were trying to get close to Sans
Group. That was why Edgar could not let them have the project.

“Giving the project to Eyer Group allows me to remain in control. This project shall determine the
financial standing of Royden Group for the coming three years. Thus, there can be no mistake.”

Edgar had always done things thoroughly and would never allow anyone to stand in the way of his
desired outcome. Nathan nodded upon hearing Edgar but could not resist adding, “I’m worried you are
being too merciful to Jean. Once this project succeeds, Eyer Group will receive many benefits too.”



Perhaps Jean might even take advantage of the opportunity to advance Eyer Group. Then, Edgar’s
revenge plan from a year ago will fail miserably. Edgar’s voice turned somber. “Let’s just say I am
compensating her for the wrong I’ve done.”

At this moment, Jean came out of the meeting room with a stack of documents and heard what Edgar
said. His fingers turned pale as she gripped the documents tightly, threatening to crumple them.
Compensation?

Nothing can fully compensate me for the hurt I have gone through. “Ms. Eyer?” Miles came over with
coffee and noticed Jean standing by the door with an unreadable expression.

“Tell Edgar he has given me too many documents that I can’t memorize them. Furthermore, he has no
right to restrict my freedom.” Jean concealed her emotions and continued, “If he dares to rescind the
agreement, I will sue him until he is bankrupt.”

Jean left right after saying that. Is he refusing to let me interact with the Ludwig family because he can’t
stand seeing me with Ben?

Jean pulled out her phone to dial Ben’s number. However, she suddenly hesitated because she did not
wish to take advantage of Ben. If she did, she would be no different from Edgar.

“Jean.” It turned out Ben was already waiting for her outside. He ran to her and asked, “Is the
negotiation done?”

Ben was concerned that Edgar would bully her. Thus, he observed her expression closely. Jean replied
briefly, “Yes, it’s done.” Ben frowned at her response. “Did he do something to you? I won’t let him get
away with it!”

Although Ben was far less influential and powerful than Edgar, he would not hesitate to defend Jean.
“Ben, don’t bother about him. I’m hungry.” Jean tugged his sleeve. She looked tired.



Ben frowned upon seeing how tired she was. “Yes, let’s have dinner.”

Then, they got into the car and left. Unbeknownst to them, someone was staring at them from a
window upstairs.

Nathan could not stand seeing Edgar like this. “You have already took revenge against the Eyer family.
Why are you still watching her every move? You said she could seek revenge against you, but she is
too powerless to do that now.”

Nathan wasn’t trying to undermine Jean. It was the truth. Jean had already paid all her debts. Thus
Nathan felt Edgar should stop going against Jean all the time. After all, Jean could not pose a threat to
him.

Edgar stood by the window with his arms crossed. He looked out coldly for a long time before saying,
“But this is the only way I can think of.”

“What do you mean?” Nathan could not understand what Edgar was saying. At the same time, Nathan
noticed that Edgar seemed lost and downcast. He had never seen Edgar like this in all the years he
had known him.

Edgar rubbed his brow. “Forget it. Let’s go.” It was Nathan’s grandmother’s birthday banquet tonight,
and Edgar would be attending it with Nathan.

However, Edgar suddenly recalled something as they were traveling. “Did your family invite anyone
from the Ludwig family tonight?”

“I guess so.” Nathan checked his phone. When he looked up from it, Edgar’s expression had turned
unreadable. “Why did you ask?”

Edgar stepped on the accelerator and replied indifferently. “It’s nothing.”



“Still, can’t you slow down?” Nathan gulped and gripped the seatbelt tightly. I shouldn’t have said
anything just now. No one can stop him when he gets angry!

Jean also just found out that she was going to Nathan’s grandmother’s birthday banquet as they were
heading there. She considered for a moment and said, “I don’t think it is appropriate for me to go to the
birthday banquet with your family. Can you let me off first over there?”

However, Ben refused to obey her request. “We are nearly there.” Jean frowned and protested, “Ben,
I…”

“I’ve already told my mother. She would pester me with a lot of questions if you don’t go.” Ben focused
on the road ahead. “It’s only dinner anyway. You have attended such events before.”

Despite that, Jean felt her eyelids throbbing and had a bad feeling about the banquet. She finally
understood why as she opened the car door. Edgar is probably attending too!

Jean wanted to escape, but Ben saw through her instantly. “You have to begin living your new life. Are
you going to avoid him all the time?”

Jean sighed softly. “Let’s go in then.”

Ben smiled at her answer and offered her his arm. Jean hesitated for a moment before placing her
hand on his arm. It was only an ordinary social etiquette to her.

Still, they managed to attract a lot of attention as they walked into the banquet. Farra was seated with a
group of upper-class wives and waved at Ben and Jean from afar. Ben immediately brought Jean to
her. “Mom, I’m sorry for being late. We had to go through a traffic jam.”

The women were chatting a moment ago but had all turned silent. They all looked at Jean curiously
and wondered what her relationship with the Ludwig family was.



They have also heard rumors that the Ludwig family accepted Jean and gave up on the marriage
alliance with the Sans family.

Farra knew what the women were thinking. Thus, she held Jean’s hand with a smile and treated Jean
as if she was her daughter. Then, she began to introduce Jean to the women. “Madam Lorey, this is
Jean, my son’s…”

Jean pulled her hand away in a panic. “Mrs. Ludwig, I need to use the washroom for a moment.”

Then, she left quickly as if escaping.

Farra assumed Jean was only trying to protect the Ludwig family’s reputation and shot Ben a glance.

Ben decided to go after Jean, but someone called his name.

“Ben, it’s been a long time.”

It was Ally dressed in an elegant long gown. The gown accentuated her slim figure, and she seemed
demure and adorable with her long curls over her shoulder.

The crowd looked at them.

“Who is Ben’s girlfriend?”
