Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 516

In that instant, Nathan really hoped that Jean could successfully migrate overseas.

He wouldn't need to listen to their love story when that happened.

"Did you annoy her again?" Nathan guessed boldly.

"No, Edgar replied sternly.

"I'm going to buy over Eyer Group."

As soon as he heard that, Nathan broke his pen.He frowned and muttered, "After you divorced, you made a huge effort to make her lead the company. Now, you want to repurchase it?"

He suddenly realized that his tactics for chasing after girls were too weak.

Compared to Edgar, it was nothing.

To win Jean back, he was willing to sacrifice so much.

I guess he's the only person in Yorktown who could do this.

However, Edgar seemed nonchalant about it.

"This is the best plan to keep in touch with her.Otherwise, I'm kept away from her completely."

On top of that, Julia's defensiveness made it even more difficult for him.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come up with the idea to buy Eyer Group; he even gave Hugo's company such a huge present.

Nathan took a sharp breath.

"Got it.What do you want me to do?"

"Make the acquisition process as complicated as possible.Ideally, I'll like to see her every day.More importantly, use this to bind her so she can't escape overseas again"

Given the right opportunities, that intelligent woman will really move overseas.

It will be a lot more difficult to catch her then.

However, I've suffered a lot of damage and had a close shave while helping her this time.

Jean was not completely unfazed by Edgar's actions.

Her eyes dimmed when she lowered her head to read through the contract.

However, Gigi needed a lot of money.

The profit the company was earning was not enough.

Jean browsed through a lot of related information online.

It was possible to cure her, but very few people managed to fully recover.

The side effects would usually remain for the rest of their lives.

She sent another message to Sheena.

‘I will prepare the medical fees, but don't let her know my involvement for now: Sheena thanked her sincerely.

‘It's her good fortune to have you as a sister: Jean looked at the message for a long time.

The following day, Julia started working out in the garden.

She heard footsteps by the door and turned around.

"Jean, come here and have a look.The view is beautiful."

She stretched before speaking wistfully, "Your dad chose a good location.It was not that expensive when he bought this piece of land."

Jean blinked.

"Aunt Julia, when Dad bought this property, he hadn't married Mom.How did you know this?"

She was deep in her thoughts.

I remember Aunt Julia has no interest in properties and businesses.

Julia turned around and replied, "I heard from them? Jean looked at her in confusion, but her phone rang at that moment; it was from Edgar.

She hung up with a frown, but he called her again.

Julia immediately scoffed, "How is he so clingy?"

Jean picked up the call and walked to her study.

"Hello, what's up?"

"I'd like to check all the accounts and bookkeeping of Eyer Group.I'll be arriving in half an hour."

It was a reasonable request from the buyer, so Jean didn't reject him.

I would never have thought he had so many tricks up his sleeves! It was not enough for him to look through all the records.

He even wanted to check the history and the employees’ backgrounds.

Then, he wanted to look at the companies Eyer Group had partnered with.

Jean agreed to his never-ending requests from day to night until she lost her patience.

"Mr.Royden, if you are dissatisfied with Eyer Group or have other plans, you can just let me know that you want to stop the acquisition.There's no need to give all of us a hard time"

To fulfill his seemingly reasonable requests, all the employees at Eyer Group worked overtime.

They even had to stop their current tasks to reply to his questions.

Jean was utterly speechless.

"Ms.Eyer, it’s quite unfair of you to say that."

Edgar smiled at her.

"I'm doing this for both of us.Have I raised any unreasonable requests?"

He shrugged and looked at her cooperatively, making her blood boil.

Suppressing her anger, Jean stood up.

"Sure.If you have anything else, just ask Rachel.She can represent me"

She had stayed there for the entire day.

It was time for her to get back to rest.

However, Edgar also stood up as soon as she finished her sentence.

"You're right.Why don't I send you home? Next time, I'll pick you up earlier."

Jean frowned at him.

"...There's no need for that."

"We need it.

We can also discuss some details on the acquisition during the ride to save each other's time."

Edgar opened the door and gestured toward the seat.

Jean had an uncanny feeling he was up to something, but she couldn't pinpoint the problem on the surface.

After driving for a while, the car suddenly stopped.

"Mr.Edgar, we might need to ask a mechanic to fix this.I'll call him now; the driver said apologetically.With that, he went out with the key, ‘locking’ Jean and Edgar in the car.

She held her head with her hands exasperatedly.

"Has your driver always been this incapable?"

"I don't have any other choice.We are short on money lately, so we lowered the requirements for our new hires."Edgar looked at his phone.

When he lifted his head, he smiled at her.

"I'm sure you won't mind, seeing you are so considerate’ The more he spoke, the more Jean thought something was wrong.

"You-"

Edgar's phone rang and cut her off.

He shot a glance at the caller before hanging up immediately.

When Jean saw who the caller was, she froze for a second.

It should be from Miles.Isn't he picking it up? Finally, she lost her temper ten minutes later.

"Can't you think of something? Why is your driver taking so long to make a phone call?"

"My phone's battery is flat.I can't contact him."

Edgar shrugged. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

"Use mine!"

Jean spoke through gritted teeth.He blinked at her innocently.

"I can't remember his number.He just joined us."

Jean frowned deeply and stared at him.

"Give Miles a call.He has been working with you for such a long time.You should remember his number."

Edgar's smile widened upon hearing that.

"Of course.Let me call him’ He followed Jean's request obediently, but Miles was unreachable.

"You can't blame me now"

"Are we going to be stuck here the entire time?"

"I guess so."

He took off his suit and placed it on her.

"It's getting cold at night.Here, wear this."

Edgar's smile widened upon hearing that.
