Chapter 323 Stop Connecting Them Together

The others also criticized Jean. “You should admit your crimes. What a joke!” “I heard Eyer Group closed down

again. People like her should scram.”

A tall, lean man suddenly walked out of the elevator in a flurry of noise. It was Edgar. He had a solemn expression

as he glanced at Jean with cold eyes. “Edgar!”

Gigi rushed to him. “I’ve been looking for you everywhere. I was so scared.” She began to act coyly while the others

rained accusations on Jean. On the other hand, Winnie stood by the pillar at the back, watching the scene quietly.

She had a feeling that Jean did not do it. Furthermore, looking at Jean’s expression, it seemed she would have

difficulty getting out of this today.

“Are you all right?”

Edgar pursed his lips and asked the question Gigi wanted to hear. Unfortunately, it was not directed at her but at

Jean.

Gigi was frozen to her spot.

“Edgar, I was nearly frightened to death by that thing. Why are you asking her?” Gigi tugged his arm hard and

whispered to remind him, “Everyone’s watching us.”

If Edgar sided with Jean now, it would humiliate Gigi and the Reece family.

Hearing her, Edgar finally looked away from Jean and turned to Gigi.

He asked, “Were you frightened?”

Gigi was delighted. As I thought, Edgar still cared about me. Even if he doesn’t, he must maintain his appearance

before everyone.

Her expression brightened, and she said coyly, “Yes, I was terrified.”

“Get someone to send her home.”

Then, Edgar removed his hand from hers, ignoring her whines in protest. He walked to Jean and said, “This is not a

good place to talk. Since you have caused a huge scene, shouldn’t you explain yourself?”

Ben frowned and whispered, “Jean, let’s go.”

He was worried that Jean would not stand a chance against them.

Furthermore, it seemed Edgar had fully sided with the Reece family.

Sam rushed over with an annoyed expression and shouted, “What happened? Who bullied my daughter?”

“Stop shouting. Edgar has arranged for Gigi to go home.” Winnie found him embarrassing. She grabbed him and

said, “Edgar will deal with this matter. You better not get involved.”

However, her words made Sam even more furious.

He took out his frustration from what happened with Quinn on Winnie. “I had only left for a while. Why couldn’t you

even take care of her properly? You even caused her to be frightened. What’s the use of keeping you around?”

Winnie was stunned. Why is he suddenly scolding me?

The other guests did not expect so many things to happen at a banquet held by the Reece family.

Meanwhile, Edgar had finished speaking and gave Jean ample time to respond. He kept looking at her. It seemed he

only had eyes for her alone.

Jean considered for a moment before saying, “Where to?”

She also did not want others to misunderstand her and curse her name. Moreover, she knew what Ben said was

right. Even if she did not mind, she still needed to consider the Eyer family.

In actuality, she was not asleep at the time. Thus, she heard everything Ben had said in the car.

She also needed to accept that it was pointless for her to persist this way.

Gigi would never be grateful for what Jean did, and nothing would change. Thus, Jean believed she should change

her mindset and the situation as soon as possible.

“There’s a café downstairs.”

Edgar’s expression softened slightly as he said that.

The three of them left together. Since Gigi had been sent home, the whole banquet suddenly quieted down.

Sam frowned and announced, “That’s all. Everyone can leave now.”

After what happened, he did not want to continue with the banquet.

Winnie saw him put on his coat and was about to leave. She rushed to stop him. “Where are you going?”

“Stop bothering me! Make sure this place is cleaned properly.” Then, Sam scolded, “If you mess things up again,

don’t you dare appear before me again!”

He left in a hurry after saying that.

Winnie clenched her teeth as she watched him go. “Hmph, that b*tch must have abandoned you.”

Mona accidentally heard this from the side and glanced at Winnie. But Winnie immediately smiled again. Her smile

gave Mona goosebumps.

It turned out it was not Gigi but Winnie, who was the scariest person in the Reece family.

Meanwhile, in the café, Edgar gave an order, and everyone immediately left the café.

Ben was naturally unwilling to leave Jean. He frowned as he saw Edgar take a seat opposite her.

Edgar took a sip of coffee and said in a cold tone, “Mr. Ludwig, if you wish to listen to other’s private matters, I

won’t stop you.”

Ben hesitated for a moment before saying, “Jean, I’ll wait for you at the side.”

He needed to ensure Jean’s safety. After all, Edgar could be under the influence of the Reece family.

Jean nodded. “Sure.”

Ben moved to a neighboring table.

Jean then looked at Edgar and asked indifferently, “Mr. Royden, how are you planning to deal with this matter?”

“I know you wouldn’t do such a thing.” He would always believe her.

However, Jean could not help but feel suspicious when he replied so casually.

Based on what she knew about him, she believed this matter would be complicated.

Thus, she sat still and seemed unbothered as she waited for him to explain.

She had lost count of the times they had confronted each other and reached stalemates. All she knew was that she

was tired of them.

“Let me show you something.” Edgar took out an agreement Gigi had signed.

Jean read through the agreement and looked at Edgar in disbelief. “She bore you a child. How can you treat her like

this? Edgar, you are much crueler than I thought.”

Before this, she thought his cruelty was only toward the Eyer family.

After all, the Eyer family owed him too much.

He was now treating Gigi the same way. On further thought, Jean realized he was even more heartless toward Gigi.

“Yes,” Edgar answered indifferently. As Jean was about to lash out in a fury, he added, “She refuses to send the

baby for a DNA test. This proves the matter. I was already showing her mercy in not forcing the Reece family to

comply.”

Jean frowned hard as soon as she heard him.

However, Edgar chuckled. “You knew it too.”

Jean clenched her fingers. “Gigi has recently given birth, and you’re treating her this way. How is she to survive in

the future?”

“You keep insisting on me being with Gigi. Does this prove you still have feelings for me? Is that why you insist on

me being with another woman?”

Edgar looked at her. There was a hint of gentleness in his stern gaze.

Jean gripped her coffee cup. “Of course not!”

She would have to be insane to exhaust herself for that reason.

“What’s the reason?”

He was trying to trick her into revealing something again.

Jean pursed her lips and did not speak.

“Furthermore, Sam has been part of my revenge plan. I only keep him around because he is still useful. That’s why

I haven’t done anything to him.”

He seemed more lonely than usual as he revealed this to her.

“From now on, I hope you will stop connecting me to her.”
