Chapter 318

Nothing to Say

Jean opened the car door and got in. Before she could say anything, the man rushed to speak. “I’ve
been busy the whole day, and I haven’t had time to eat. Have supper with me?”

Jean was about to turn him down. He continued, “I’ll tell you everything you want to know after that.”
Jean’s fingers clenched into a fist as she swallowed what she was about to say.

Half an hour later, the two of them sat in a revolving restaurant. Jean watched as he ordered a table full
of dishes and couldn’t help but wrinkle her brows.

He was just having supper, but he chose a top-grade restaurant and ordered so much food. It was a
little extravagant. Edgar rolled up the sleeves of his shirt and cut into his steak leisurely.

He had an elegant and attractive demeanor. It was more enchanting than a portrait. At that moment, it
was as if Jean suddenly understood something.

“Andy went to your house to look for you.” “Mm,” He answered indifferently as his gaze was directed at
the fork and knife in his hands.

“Sam and Gigi have been taken away to be investigated. If Andy manages to free himself from this,
there won’t be a definite conclusion to this matter!”

“Mm.” Edgar responded before pushing the plate of cut steak to Jean. “I’m not hungry.” She couldn’t
eat anything at that moment either.

Edgar put down his utensils and looked up. His eyes were cold and aloof, and no one could understand
the complicated feelings in it. There was also particularly thick air surrounding the two of them.



“Many people are involved in this. It’s not as simple as you think it is.” That was all Edgar could say.
After all, Jean wasn’t from Royden Group.

She needed time to understand the disputes that had happened. Jean wrung her hands, and after a
long time, she said, “What about Gigi and Sam?”

“I’m not sure.” Edgar’s lips moved. “The board members of Royden Group need to have a meeting to
discuss it.” Jean’s brows furrowed tightly. “Didn’t you say that you wanted to protect Gigi since you’re
married? In such a situation, you…”

The more agitated she was, the calmer Edgar was. After a long time, he said coldly, “Unless you tell
me why you’re protecting Gigi.” He brought up an old matter as his eyes were filled with stubborn
coldness.

He knew full well what type of person Jean was. It was because of this that he was still perplexed even
after much thought.

What is it that is making Jean partial to Gigi in a few short days?

Jean turned her head and didn’t say a word.

For the first time, Edgar was incredibly patient. He leaned forward slightly, and his hands were on the
table. “Didn’t you come looking for me to solve this problem? If you don’t say anything, we have nothing
to talk about.”

“Edgar, there’s no use in forcing me.”

Jean stood up and looked at him. She enunciated each word. “You’ve already registered your
marriage. If you stand by and do nothing while Gigi is in trouble, can you bear the public opinion and
pressure?”



“If Royden Group is still thinking of advancing to the international market, you have to maintain your
reputation. Royden Group has weathered many storms over the past six months. If this goes on, the
share prices are going to drop and crash.” Jean could see through it very well. If it continued, it wouldn’t
be advantageous to Royden Group at all.

To Edgar, Andy was a ticking time bomb.

If it was someone else, they would’ve been swamped at this time and would go around roping in
business partners, but Edgar kept his composure. He still had the heart to ask her about all this.

“Jean, those are my affairs.” The corners of his lips curved, and he had a deep smile. He lifted his wrist
and looked at the time. “Let me send you back.”

“No…”

Before she could complete her sentence, many reporters suddenly burst out and pointed cameras at
the two of them.

“Mr. Royden, you’ve already registered your marriage with Ms. Reece, but you’re having a date with
your ex-wife, Ms. Jean Eyer. Are you having an affair?”

“Have the two of you kept up such an intimate relationship after your divorce?”

“Does Jean have anything to do with Gigi being investigated by the police and being sued by Royden
Group? Did she set up such a plot to seize the position of the mistress of Royden Group?”

Edgar’s brows furrowed tightly. As they walked out, he immediately put his wool coat around Jean’s
head to shield her face and protect her.

The reporters followed them closely.



Jean sighed a breath of relief when they got into the car and left. “Those reporters were waiting outside
the hospital, but they suddenly came here. Who arranged this!”

Edgar didn’t say anything as he drove.

It had to be said that his calm appearance at that moment gave others peace of mind.

“If Royden Group didn’t sue Gigi, those rumors will be directed at you alone. Eyer Group has just made
a comeback, but this will make it collapse completely. Jean, I’m sure you have your reasons for doing
so, but I hope that you think about it properly and don’t do something that you’ll regret.”

Edgar sent her to the entrance of Eyer Residence before driving away.

The car slowly drove out of sight. Jean gripped her collar tightly. He had always known that Eyer Group
and the Eyer family were most important to her.

She took in a breath of cold air before turning and going into the villa.

There was no warmth at all in the empty house. Jean dragged her exhausted feet into the bedroom.

She was also curious about what she had to do before she could break free of her current predicament.

…

At the police station, Gigi was completely ignorant. She told the lawyer firmly, “I’ve never done
anything. I don’t know what shady business my dad or Andy did. If you want to investigate, investigate
them.”

“Ms. Reece, I think…” The lawyer wanted to advise her.

At that moment, the door opened, and a lawyer dressed in a black suit walked in.



“I am Mr. Martin, and I am your humble servant. Mr. Royden sent me over to defend you, Ms. Reece. I
will be fully responsible for everything else. You may leave.” Mr. Martin sat down.

The other lawyer thought that this was a very bothersome matter and stood up immediately to make
space.

Once Mr. Martin had arrived, there was a change in Gigi’s expression, and she looked very pleased.

“I knew that Edgar wouldn’t just ignore me.”

Mr. Martin didn’t respond. He took out a contract instead. “Please sign this, Ms. Reece. Then I can take
you away immediately.”

“Is it so simple?” There was glee on Gigi’s face.

But she never imagined that her face would turn dark once she picked it up.

It was a private contract. The general meaning was for her to admit that their marriage was not legally
binding and that their registration was only for the child to receive medical treatment overseas.

In other words, Edgar wanted to draw a line between them.

It wasn’t only between the both of them. He also wouldn’t be responsible for the child in the future.

Gigi tore the contract into pieces. “Beat it. Get lost right now. Edgar won’t treat me like this. Who sent
you here?”

Mr. Martin was covered in shreds of paper.

After brushing it off a little, he continued speaking to Gigi calmly. “Ms. Reece, you have to sign the
contract before you can leave this place. You should know full well that there is actual evidence for this



case. There is no need for you to delay it any longer. The more time you waste, the more unfavorable it
is for you.”

Gigi’s expression changed in an instant.

Mr. Martin took out an identical contract from his briefcase.

“If you’re feeling unhappy, Ms. Reece, you can feel free to tear it up. I have many copies with me.”
