Chapter 370

Opposing Each Other With Equal Harshness

Ellie played happily in the children’s deluxe suite. Not long after, she curled up on the couch and fell
asleep. Jean handed her over to the accompanying nanny as she returned to her room.

Only suites were on that floor. She was one floor down. While she was waiting for the elevator,
someone pulled her from behind. She was on alert, so she turned and hit the other party’s crucial spot
in self-defense.

She heard a dull cry before Edgar held her against the corner of the wall with both hands. The man
smiled bitterly. “Did you have to be so vicious?”

If not for his nimble movements as he avoided her attack in time, he would have had to rest in bed for
at least a day. “It’s normal to get hit when you stand behind others, Mr. Royden.”

He had been the one to call out from behind her! “Alright, alright. It’s my fault. You didn’t eat much on
the plane. Let’s go. I’ll take you around,” he said as he pressed her shoulders and led her into the
elevator.

Looking at his hand, Jean pushed it away unwillingly. “Thank you for booking the room for Ellie. I’m
sure Hugo will find a way to thank you.” Jean said calmly.

“Are you very close to that child?” Edgar pressed the elevator buttons. His eyes darkened. “That’s none
of your concern, is it?” Jean stared at him. “I can choose who I want to spend time with.”

Why does he keep getting involved in her affairs? The man’s biggest problem was not asking for her
opinions and ignoring her feelings.

Edgar suppressed the rage that surfaced with some difficulty. “Stay away from Hugo.”



Did she think that Hugo was a simple man if he could stand steadily on his own two feet? No, the
man’s tricks were equally matched to Edgar’s.

This was one of the reasons why Edgar felt threatened.

Jean furrowed her brows. “That’s my…”

“Why do you think I booked the room for the child?” He suddenly pulled her wrist and walked to the
door quickly.

Everyone could sense that the man was angry, and it was a very serious situation.

“Edgar, are you angry at a child?” Jean couldn’t understand his rage at all. The wrinkle in her brows
deepened. “We’ve been divorced for almost two years.”

What she said gently floated into the man’s ears alongside the sea breeze.

His footsteps stopped at that moment.

He looked down, and the corners of his mouth curved as he sneered. “You’re right. I have no right to
interfere with your life. Why don’t I understand such a simple concept?”

He knew full well that she was looking forward to a new life, and she urgently wanted Eyer Group to
make a comeback. He even knew that she wanted to draw a line between them.

But he couldn’t face it.

He couldn’t control himself at all at the thought of her being in another man’s arms.

He turned around, and the coldness in his brows grew stronger. He didn’t let her get a word in.

“There’s no other way, Jean. No matter how you treat me, I won’t let go.”



The next moment, Jean pushed him away with force.

“You were the one who abandoned me first.”

She didn’t want to argue with him.

He had hurt her so much, but he was now harassing her and saying how much he regretted it.

It was too late, Edgar.

Jean returned to the hotel and informed Rachel before she went to rest.

She didn’t even eat dinner. She didn’t have the appetite after arguing with Edgar.

When Jean thought about it, she thought that he might have had a concussion. Otherwise, he wouldn’t
be so unreasonable.

She had just awoken when she received a call from room service.

“Should we send dinner to your room now, Ms. Eyer?”

Dinner?

She thought that Rachel had ordered dinner for her. “Yes. Thank you.”

The next day, while everyone was gathered in the conference room, Hugo came over and greeted her.
“Did yesterday’s dinner suit your taste?”

Jean was startled and at a loss. It was Hugo, after all.

She nodded and smiled out of courtesy. “It was delicious. Thank you, Mr. Mason.”



He looked down at his wristwatch. “According to the schedule, this should end before noon. Do you
want to walk around after that?”

“I…”

He continued at once, as if afraid that she would turn him down, “Ellie wants to play with you. If it’s
inconvenient, we can meet up another time.”

Jean thought of Ellie’s adorable face and nodded. “Alright. We’ll see how things go later.”

Far away, Edgar stood at the entrance, and his cold eyes gazed at the two as they talked.

Miles could once again feel the cold and threatening pressure from him.

“Why don’t we go in, Mr. Royden?”

Edgar took a few steps forward and ignored everyone.

Coincidentally, he and Hugo were arranged to be seated together.

Miles noticed it and immediately went to look for the organizing staff to adjust the seats, but it was too
late.

His boss had sat down at the same time as Hugo. Both men were big and tall, and their figures were
very conspicuous as they sat side by side. Women around them looked at them admiringly, one after
another.

After all, their looks and identities were displayed. They were remarkably alike in how they were both
insanely good-looking men in the business world.

“Ms. Eyer, take a look,” Rachel said softly. “Mr. Royden and Mr. Mason don’t seem to like each other.”



Both of them?

Jean glanced in that direction.

“I don’t think so.”

Even if Edgar had gone crazy and had strange thoughts, Hugo was calm and mature. He wouldn’t be
petty with Edgar.

“Really? Why do I feel like there’s a strange air surrounding them? It’s almost as if it’s uncomfortable to
even breathe.” Rachel shook her head as she looked at her boss.

Jean focused all her attention on the brochure in her hands, completely ignoring them.

Rachel sighed softly. It was hard to guess what went on in the minds of men.

Soon, an unexpected situation occurred.

“Aren’t Rukh Group and Royden Group working together? Why are both the presidents opposing each
other with equal harshness?”

“Did their partnership break down and fall through?”

There were fervent whispered discussions.

The two people in question were completely unaware.

“Are you interested in this project as well, Mr. Mason?” Edgar narrowed his eyes as he looked over.

Hugo smiled indifferently. “Good projects are worth my special attention.”

“That depends on the opportunity. You’re one step too late, Mr. Mason.”



“Really? I feel like the opportunity I have is just right.”

Miles, who was at the side, kept wiping his cold sweat. This wasn’t a conference room. It was a
battlefield.

More importantly, even the organizer was thrown off track. They discussed that one project for almost
two hours.

Those from other companies started to grumble a little.

In desperation, the staff called the vice president of BK Group, Mr. Brady, to the scene.

After hearing the reasons, Mr. Brady smiled as he came to the two men. “Mr. Royden. Mr. Mason. Our
schedule has to go on. Why don’t the two of you keep your thoughts for later? We can look for a quiet
place after this and talk about it.”

“Both your companies are reliable partners of BK Group. Maybe in the future, there will be an
opportunity for everyone to work together. Let’s not break the peace.”
