Chapter 329

Entrapment

While Jean was distracted, Gigi shoved her aside and ran into Edgar’s room in tears. As soon as she
saw Edgar, she flung herself to him and said coyly, “Edgar, you’re finally awake. I was so worried about
you. Are you okay?”

Edgar lay on the bed. He glanced past her face and looked toward the door. Gigi noticed where he was
looking and immediately complained, “You have no idea how mean Jean was just now. Look at my hair
and clothes. It was she who…”

Edgar coughed softly before she could finish speaking. The nurse beside her warned, “The patient has
just woken up and needs to undergo detailed observation. Family members should not make too much
noise and allow the patient to recuperate in peace.”

It was the nurse’s first time seeing such an unruly family member as Gigi. Gigi grumbled before going
to Edgar and asked, “Edgar, what happened to you?”

She kept asking one question after another. Edgar did not even have the chance to say anything. Jean
stood at the door and observed Edgar’s condition.

He looked exhausted and weak as Gigi kept tugging his arm. “Tell her to leave,” Edgar said those
words coldly.

Gigi’s eyes flashed with delight. She immediately went to Jean. “Did you hear that? Edgar wants you to
leave! He doesn’t want to see you. Don’t come here to bother him again.”

Thud.

Gigi closed the door and went to accompany Edgar.



Jean stood on her spot and felt her heart sink. She was alone in the empty corridor. Her thoughts grew
conflicted.

There was something that she wanted to tell Edgar.

However, she hesitated and did not know how to begin.

When Gigi came out to the corridor to talk to the doctor, Jean was nowhere to be found.

Thus, she smirked with satisfaction. “I will take over your place completely one day.”

Then, she walked a few steps and saw Edbert coming over with his assistant.

“Uncle Edbert.” Gigi smiled sweetly. “Edgar had just fallen asleep. He might not be able to talk to you.”

Surprise flashed across Edbert’s face, but his expression soon returned to normal. “That’s good. I’m
relieved to hear that. Anyway, I’ve brought some company documents to give him.”

Edbert glanced at his assistant, and the assistant handed the documents to Gigi.

Gigi recalled how Andy had used her and said hesitantly, “Uncle Edbert, I’m not Royden Group’s
employee. Isn’t it inappropriate to give these to me?”

“That was in the past. But now, you and Edgar are legally married. Moreover, Royden Group shall
eventually belong to you and him.” Edbert smiled meaningfully before turning around and leaving.

However, his expression changed as soon as he walked into the elevator.

“Get rid of everyone who failed the task. Don’t leave any trace.”

“Yes, sir.”



Edbert’s words left Gigi in a good mood the whole night.

She looked at the documents and was curious about them. What’s so important that Edbert had to
send them here personally?

The thought ignited her curiosity again. She felt the urge to flip through the document.

Since Edgar was asleep and no one else was in the room, no one would know if she took a peek.

Jean touched the document with her fingertips.

“What are you doing?”

Edgar was fully awake and looked at her coldly.

Jean’s hand trembled and caused the document to fall to the floor. She was severely frightened and
pursed her lips before stepping forward. “Edgar, you’re awake.”

“What is it?” Edgar looked at her. His eyes filled with emotions too complicated for her to understand,
and his expression was threateningly cold.

Gigi looked away and said softly, “Uncle Edbert came by while you were sleeping. He told me to give
this document to you. I… I didn’t mean to peek. I was…”

She wrecked her brain but could not come up with an excuse.

Most importantly, she did not expect Edgar to suddenly wake up without making a sound.

Edgar gripped her wrist and pulled her to his side.

Gigi gasped in pain. It felt like he was trying to pull off her wrist. She yelped and suddenly found herself
meeting Edgar’s ice-cold gaze.



“Were you planning to steal Royden Group’s document again?”

“No, that’s not true.” Gigi shook her head and tried to explain.

However, Edgar pushed her away forcefully.

“Get out! I don’t want to see you.”

Gig’s eyes welled up with tears. She pursed her lips sadly. “Edgar, I didn’t mean anything. I was just
curious, and I never thought of betraying you. What happened previously was because Andy tricked
me.”

Edgar continued to ignore Gigi no matter what she said.

Gigi also realized her words were pointless, so she got up slowly and said, “I’m going home first. I’ll
come to see you again later.”

Then, she shed a few tears before closing the door and leaving.

Edgar got down from his bed and organized the document. A sudden wave of pain spread through his
arm, prompting him to frown tightly. Still, he flipped through the paper.

It was only an unimportant report, not something Edgar needed to check personally.

How is this document important enough for Uncle Edbert to travel here?

With Andy resigning and Edgar hospitalized after an accident, Edbert would be in charge of all of
Royden Group’s daily matters.

“Uncle Edbert, why?”



Edgar clenched his fingers. His gaze was more chilling than the winter night outside the window.

The following morning, Nathan received Edgar’s call and rushed to the hospital. “Don’t worry. No one
knows I’m here. How are you feeling?”

Edgar answered softly, “I’m fine. They are only minor injuries. Did you find anything concerning the
matter I asked you to investigate?”

He had a moderate-level fracture on half of his right arm.

The doctor said that if the car had crashed further to the side, Edgar might not have survived.

Furthermore, Miles and the driver were still unconscious.

“The site of the accident happened to be a road reconstructed after the earthquake. There should be
various signs indicating that construction is ongoing. Furthermore, the road condition is very
complicated. During the accident, the road was slippery, and the truck’s brake malfunctioned, causing
the truck to crash into your car. The driver of the truck has been detained.”

“Nathan, Keith has been my driver for five years. He has never driven recklessly.” Edgar massaged his
temple. His eyes were cold.

Nathan nodded.

“Furthermore, Keith has the most severe injuries. The doctor has notified his kin to sign the consent
form. Even if he got out of danger, he would still need to stay in the intensive care unit for some time. It
is also hard to determine whether he will make a full recovery. Moreover, Miles’ condition is not
optimistic either.”

Edgar had the least severe injury of the three people in the car.



If Miles or the driver were the traitors, one had to wonder what kind of bargaining chip would make
them willing to risk their lives.

Furthermore, Edgar treated them well and gave them reasonable remuneration and benefits. They had
no reason to take such a risk.

Ethan looked at Edgar. “Do you have a suspect in mind? Is it Andy?”

Edgar looked down and said calmly, “Nathan, can I trust you?”

Nathan was stunned.

“Do you have a plan?”

“We will put on a show.”
