Chapter 218

You Better Watch Out

Jean had seen through most of Andy’s intentions. She had nothing to be afraid of. The only thing she
was worried about was if Edgar wouldn’t come back as promised.

At that point, Andy’s face was dark. He played with the contracts in his hand and smiled a reckless and
disdainful smile. “Before I came, I never thought that the relationship between Eyer Group and Royden
Group would be so strong. Even at the risk of being charged for breaching the contract, you insist on
waiting for Mr. Royden.”

After being repeatedly pressured by Andy, Jean kept asking herself if what she was doing was worth it.
If she gave in to Andy now…

“Also, you know about Gigi and me?” His eyes narrowed and without waiting for Jean’s reply, he said in
a cold voice, “Then I’m sorry, I definitely cannot allow you to continue working with Royden Group.”

With that conflict of interest, his eyes turned unbelievably cold. The hand under Jean’s sleeve slowly
clenched into a fist.

“Since it has come to this, I’m not afraid to tell you that I have a lot of bone-crushing evidence that will
make others look on you with disdain. It’s just me. I don’t care about anything else. But with your
current status, it would be a shame to see you fall from grace.”

Jean turned around. Her eyes were stubborn and obstinate. Andy’s face turned darker and darker.
“You’re ruthless. You better watch out.”

He stood up nimbly before slamming the door and leaving. Jean was out of breath all of a sudden. She
sat in her chair, paralyzed. She almost hesitated and gave in. She could tell that a vile character like
Andy would eventually take revenge on her.



Jean was thinking about how to protect herself. Her cell phone suddenly rang. She thought it was a call
from Edgar, but she saw an unfamiliar number when she looked at the screen. Jean hesitated for a
moment before answering the call. “Hello?”

“Is this Jean Eyer? This is Jimmy. I have a design draft of a jewelry item for a fashion show happening
in a few days. I’m wondering if you’re interested to join my team?” Jimmy paused. “The commission
would be, of course, based on the market rate.”

“Of course I’m interested, but… I’m occupied and can’t leave at the moment.” An apprehensive
expression appeared on Jean’s face.

“That’s fine. I’ll send the design draft to you by email. We can just talk through the phone.”

Jean quickly received the design draft from Jimmy. Coincidentally, the moment she saw it she thought
the draft looked very familiar, but she couldn’t remember where she had seen it.

After asking Jimmy, she found out that it was a sketch from a buyer. He couldn’t tell her much due to
confidential information from the customer.

Jean could understand that.

But she still felt that she had seen the draft before. She might have even seen the finished product.

She couldn’t recall.

Seeing Jean busy, Susan sighed. “It’s my fault you have to take care of a burden like me.”

Jean looked up and a trace of a smile was seen.

“Susan, I only chanced upon such a good opportunity because I stayed with you at the hospital. You
brought me good luck.” Jean’s smile was calm. There were no overtones of hypocritical show of



affection.

Looking at her, Susan sighed silently and coughed.

Jean immediately went over to pat her back. “Let me get some hot water.”

She took a vacuum flask and walked out. Susan sat on the bed. Her face was getting thinner. She
mumbled to herself, “If that thing didn’t happen in the first place, things would be so much better.”

…

The next morning, Jean dealt with Susan’s discharge procedures.

Edgar sent a driver over, but Edgar himself never appeared.

“When is Mr. Royden coming back?” Jean couldn’t help but ask as she helped Susan out of the car.

The driver was startled. “Mr. Royden is back. He just went to Reece Residence.”

Hearing that, the light in her eyes dulled.

She had hoped for too much. Maybe Edgar would want to terminate the contract with her the moment
he got back.

After all, this was all a game to him.

Jean took a deep breath. She made her way up the steps.

Edgar did not get back until late at night.

Once Susan went to rest, Jean sat in the living room alone. She only raised her head and looked out
when the lights of a car lit up the porch. The man’s figure was solemn and cold as he slowly walked



into the villa.

Jean could smell alcohol fumes as soon as he opened the door.

He couldn’t wait to go to Reece Residence the moment he got back from his business trip, and he even
drank until now?

Jean’s eyes dulled. She gave up the thought of talking to him, and turned to head to her room.

But as soon as she stepped onto the stairs, she heard a crash behind her.

When she turned around, she was pulled firmly into an embrace.

He had just come from the outside so his body was cold. In a split second, it was as if a cold wind had
crept into Jean’s body.

“Let go!”

She struggled with all her might. When she looked up, she saw him looking at her.

But his hands didn’t loosen.

In fact, it became tighter. “You’re hurting me, let go.”

Jean kept struggling without a care.

It seemed like Edgar sighed. He slowly loosened his hands. “Did Andy come look for you?”

He knew about it?

“Mm. He wanted to force me to terminate the contract. I didn’t agree.” Jean’s voice got softer and
softer. A thought suddenly appeared in her head. What if Edgar had been persuaded by the Reece



family, and decided to give up Eyer Group? What would she do?

She didn’t have any confidence.

At least one thing Andy said was right. Eyer Group was destroyed in Edgar’s hands. If Eyer Group
made a comeback, Edgar’s reputation would be gone.

Jean hung her head. She felt like she was tricked by Edgar again.

“If you want to terminate the contract, I have nothing to say.”

She pushed the man in front of her away before turning to head upstairs.

Jean closed the door and made up her mind. She would say her goodbyes to Susan tomorrow and
leave this ice-cold prison.

The light in the corridor was lit the whole night.

Early in the morning, Jean opened the door of her room but saw a mess on the ground. Files, books,
and clothes were recklessly strewn all over the ground.

What was strange was that she didn’t hear any weird noise the night before.

“Edgar?” Jean called out cautiously. There was no response.

Jean went to Susan’s room. She was also baffled. “Is Mr. Royden back?”

“I think he…”

Before Jean could finish speaking, she saw Edgar coming in from outside. He was in sportswear, and
he looked like he had gone to take a walk to cure his hangover.



He was holding breakfast for three in his hands.

“Let’s eat.”

Edgar’s gaze swept past Jean’s startled face as he walked into the kitchen.

Jean wrinkled her brow and helped Susan up.

“You don’t have to care about that. I’ll clean it up later.”

“It’s fine. I can do it,” Jean said. She was even more confused.

Did a burglary happen last night?

After breakfast, Edgar watched as Jean cleaned up the mess in the corridor. Her figure was reflected in
his eyes. His answer about the thing that he was thinking about in his heart became clearer.

“Jean, come here.”

Jean was busy but she stopped what she was doing unwillingly. “What is it?”

She saw Edgar looking at her as soon as she turned around. There were too many emotions hidden in
his eyes. She didn’t understand it.

“Are you going to terminate the contract?”

Jean was worried. She didn’t want to be dangled around by him!

“Who said that I was going to terminate the contract?” The man said coldly and firmly.
