Chapter 273

The Worst of Them All

Her voice trembled as she spoke. Though she was on the verge of tears, she tried to hold it in.

She wanted to protect the last shred of her pride. At the very least, she did not want to walk out of the
room with tears in her eyes.

Edgar looked even more apologetic after hearing that, but he suppressed his emotions. “I wanted to
protect your–”

“My what?” She looked at him with a sarcastic smile. “My reputation?”

He brought me into the room publicly and forced me to stay here for so long. Even if nothing happened
between us, no one would believe that.

She let out a cold snort. “You’d better prepare some money to shut my mouth. Otherwise, brace
yourself for the news tomorrow – everyone will know how you humiliated me today.”

His eyes immediately dimmed upon hearing that.

“By the way, you asked me about Jensen just now – why would I be involved in a rumor with him? Of
course, it’s because his father treats me very well. On top of that, they are influential and rich, and
Jensen helps me out whenever I need.”

“Jean!” Edgar clenched his fists tightly, on the brink of losing his temper.

Though he was angry right now, Jean did not feel as though she had won.

With disdain in her eyes, she added, “Also, I think you need to hear this – out of all the men I’ve slept
with, you are the worst.”



With that, she threw his jacket on the ground and stomped on it furiously with her high heels.

“If you don’t want to give me the money to shut me up, fine! I dare you to wear this jacket in public
later!”

Her firm refusal to back down left an indelible impression on him.

He slammed his hand on the tea table, breaking the porcelain tea set.

The light reflected from the shattered pieces resembled their ambiguous relationship.

She knew that he would lose his temper, but she did not expect him to leave and lock her in the room.

When silence fell in the room, tears finally streamed down her cheeks until they fell on the bruise on
her collarbone.

She lowered her head and muttered to herself, “You did the right thing, Jean. Are you going to let him
trample on you for the rest of your life?”

Meanwhile, the auction had started.

“Ladies and gentlemen, this item comes from a mysterious seller. Here you go!” With that, everyone’s
gazes fell on the display behind him.

The lights focused on the jade bangle that shone in emerald. It was clear at once that this was a high-
quality product.

Jean merely shot a glance at it, but she was instantly surprised by the box that was holding the jade
bangle.

It’s from my family! Just like the designs, Jimmy asked me to work on – it belongs to Mom! This bangle,
along with the jade pendant, has my initials carved on them.



With the puzzle left by her father in the hidden drawer in mind, she immediately pressed on the bell
without a second thought.

“Hold your horses, ladies and gentlemen. I haven’t even announced the base price yet – it’s 200
thousand.”

“500 thousand.” Jean pressed the microphone button.

The host was stunned upon hearing that, but he was quickly reminded through his earpiece that the
request came from Edgar’s room.

He quickly lifted his auction hammer. “Calling once, 500 thousand.”

After three calls, no one else gave another price, because they didn’t dare to challenge Edgar.

Soon, the staff sent the jade bangle to Jean.

“You have a good eye for this. Even though it doesn’t look special, there’s great value in retaining it,”
the manager explained with a wide smile.

“Who is the seller of this bangle?” She looked at him sharply, sending a jolt to him.

“I’m not too sure. The seller didn’t expose their identity, but the base price was quite low. I assume she
needs the money fast.”

“I want to deal with her directly. If I can see her in person, I will give you guys twenty percent
commission.”

Jean was sure that there was a hidden reason behind this. It was likely that the seller was related to the
bankruptcy of Eyer Group, and she was not going to let any chance slip past her.

“That is against the rules.” The manager looked troubled.



At the door, Miles knocked on the door. “Mr. Haffield, Mr. Royden hopes that you will give your full
cooperation in this.”

As soon as Edgar’s name was mentioned, he quickly agreed. “Alright, alright. Since it’s a request from
Mr. Royden, we will definitely try our best. I’ll discuss with her about this, and I’ll leave the bangle here
for you to take a closer look, Ms. Eyer.”

Jean’s eyelids twitched. They already knew that I’m not Melody? It’s probably because of Edgar that
they didn’t expose me and throw me into the sea.

Her face fell in disappointment upon knowing that. In the end, I still had to rely on him.

She bit her lips until she could taste blood in her mouth.

Then, she took the bangle and inspected her initials, ‘J.E.’ on it. She was so intensely focused on it that
she did not hear the incoming footsteps.

Edgar walked into the room and frowned slightly upon seeing her back.

Just as she turned around, he saw the tears in her eyes.

She gritted her teeth in annoyance. “Let me go. And don’t expect me to thank you for this.”

He turned around and said, “When the cruise docks, my driver will send you home.”

Be it out of his generosity, or for her safety, he felt the need to do so.

She smiled contemptuously. “Don’t you think it would be faster to give me the money to shut me up?”

She is not the calculating type, but she puts on such a facade to draw a clear line with me.

“Do you have to do this…”



She took a deep breath. “I don’t even have to think twice if the person is you.”

Finally, his patience was completely drained.

“Sure. Let me see how much you are worth.”

With that, he lifted her up and placed her on the table, but he accidentally turned on the microphone in
the process.

In an instant, a shrill noise rang in the hall, followed by a man’s voice.

“Go on.”

Smack!

A slap was heard right after that.

Everyone looked at Edgar’s room, and Miles was unsure if he should go into the room to let them
know.

“You’re a jerk, Edgar.”

The crowd inhaled sharply, curious about what was happening in the room.

Right at this moment, the cruise ship shook, and all the lights turned off.

The deputy captain rushed into the hall yelling, “We’re having a small mishap. Please return to your
respective rooms!”

“What? Would the electricity supply be cut out if it’s just a small mishap?”

Right after that, the entire ship swayed violently.



“Aah!”

Screams and yells were heard in the crowd.

Meanwhile, in the room, Jean was in Edgar’s arms. When the ship lost balance just now, both of them
had fallen from the table, and he hadn’t let go of her since then.

She elbowed him, making him frown in pain.

“Let go, jerk!”

He sighed in exasperation. “Wait.”

She ignored him and struggled to get out of his embrace.

“The captain just told me that we hit some rocks.” His voice rang in her ears.
