Edgar and His Destined Wife -
Chapter 526
Chapter 526
Mr. Martin was entirely professional and even brought out related legal documents.
As soon as he said it, Xena conceded.
"I'll sign it!"
On the other end, Edbert's face was ice-cold, but Xena was in a hurry and didn't notice it.
Jean smiled.
"Your company should have some kind of integrity, shouldn't you? Don't tell me you'll break your word once I walk out this door" She directed this at Edbert.
In an instant, the corners of Edbert's mouth twitched dryly.
He gripped his wheelchair tightly.
"We used to be a family. What makes you think that?"
Jean smiled indifferently and took the signed agreement out of Xena's hands unconcernedly.
"I have no other way. I've been framed too many times, so I always have to keep an eye out."
She handed the agreement to Mr.Martin.
"Let's have a good working relationship, Mr. Edbert"""
Xena slowly calmed down at that moment. She gritted her teeth and said, "Jean, your company will belong to Royden Group next time. Don't ever be sad"
Is she rubbing salt into the wound? Xena wanted to see Jean's pale appearance.
Although Jean felt it was a pity, her smile didn't falter.
"How would I be sad? We'll still be working together in the future. I'm looking forward to it."
Edbert furrowed his brows tightly.
But Jean wasn't interested in clarifying his doubts. She walked out.
Edgar stood on one side, and his gaze followed Jean.
When he looked back at Edbert, his expression slowly became cold and merciless.
"Uncle Edbert, take care of yourself. You don't have to interfere in company matters and draw fire to yourself' He was tired of saying what he had to. Edgar had no other way if Edbert wanted to go down that path. The man turned coldly and was followed by Mr.Martin and Miles. The group of people came and went.Xena was angry and envious. She wished that she could rush outside to scold them. But at the next moment, Edbert yelled at her.
"What was written on the agreement?!"
At the door, Miles felt exuberant.
"Ms.Eyer, when will you come to work at Royden Group?"
This was what Edgar had wanted to ask as well.
In an instant, Edgar looked at Miles appreciatively.
"I'll see how things go. I've been a bit busy lately. Since the matter is settled, I'll be leaving," she said before she hailed a cab and left.
Edgar didn't even have the opportunity to stop her.
He watched her get into the cab and vanish from sight.
Mr. Martin, who was at the side, coughed lightly.
"Mr.Royden, you'll cross the bridge when you get there, so you don't have to be too hasty.I think the two of you still have a great mutual understanding. It's possible to get together again" But it was complicated.
After all, it is easy for women to pursue men, but for men to date women...
Edgar glanced at him, implying that he shouldn't say anything. He opened the car door and got into the car.
Jean didn't deliberately look for an excuse to leave.
She had something to do.
Since CRK Medical Center accepted Gigi, they discussed treatment plans.
However, a few days passed, and there was still no suitable conclusion.
She had an appointment with Andrew and wanted to ask him about the specifics.
When she arrived outside of his office, she saw a nurse crying as she ran out from the inside.
Jean knocked and saw that Andrew was slightly alarmed.
It seemed as though he had something in his hands.
When he saw Jean standing at the door, he immediately hid it behind him.
"Please have a seat, Ms.Eyer"
There was slight panic in his voice.
Jean didn't overthink it.
"As I said on the phone, I wanted to ask about Gigi's condition.When can she go for surgery?"
Andrew quickly shifted into work mode.
"We've assembled a team of specialists to discuss and analyze your sister's condition, but the results aren't ideal. Besides the concern of psychological issues and voluntary donors, her blood cells are deteriorating beyond usual. Maybe she will soon be classified as a more serious case."
"Under usual circumstances, other patients will be at this stage for three to five years, but she's been deteriorating too quickly.I have reason to believe that she is affected by external circumstances." Jean's brows furrowed tightly.
"What do you mean?"
"You can interpret it as she's using it or has used something to worsen her condition."
Andrew looked at the monitoring report in his hands.
"Although I don't know what it is exactly, I can be sure that the effects vanish after she stops using it."
Jean thought of a distinct possibility.
Andrew looked at her expression and put down the pen in his hands.
"Ms.Eyer, you can trust me. You must communicate with me if there are any problems. Only this way can I replace a suitable treatment for Gigi as soon as possible."
"I can't tell you now.I need time to verify it"
Jean's hands slowly tightened.
"I'll inform you at once when I replace out."
Andrew nodded.
"Alright."
Jean got up to leave, and Andrew's hands loosened.
The pen in his hands fell as a response on the desk.
It rolled along the desk's flat surface and stopped at the photograph on the corner.
It was a dark photograph, but from the back, the great figure of a woman could be seen vaguely.
There was a small signature at the bottom right corner.
It was dated four years ago.
At that time, Gigi had accepted some small advertisements in the advertising circle and had just made her debut.
Andrew looked at the photograph, and the corners of his lips slowly curved.
"I will replace a way to treat you."
Jean was still worried when she left Andrew's office, so she turned and walked toward the ward area.
At the door of Gigi's room, she heard a few people pointing to the inside and discussing it amongst themselves.
"Isn't that her? The man she spent a few years chasing is her biological sister's ex-husband. How interesting."
"How can girls these days be so shameless?"
Jean immediately walked over and looked at them.
"Have you never chased after men when you were young? Do you think you have the moral high ground to judge others just because you spend your days reading tabloids? How dignified do you think you are right now?"
"Who... Who are you? Why do you think you can criticize us?"
One of the ladies snorted rudely.
"She has to own up to what she did. She even sent her child overseas. This woman is heartless."
Jean held back her desire to strike the woman with extreme effort. She took a deep breath in and stared at them.
"I'm her sister"
Those ladies had explicit expressions of surprise.
"It's not up to you to judge if she's at fault. If you disturb her again, I'll come to your rooms every day and dig up everything you've done in the past. Let's see who has the cleanest past!"
Their expressions changed in an instant, and they stepped back while cursing.
"What a lunatic' "These two sisters are..."
"Do you want to continue?"
Jean was about to rush forward.
They ran away at once.
Jean stood at the spot, and her fists slowly tightened.
When she turned around, she saw Gigi sitting in a wheelchair.
Gigi had lost half her weight, and her face was slightly pale.
She smiled bitterly.
"They're right. There is no cure for me" Both her soul and her spirit deserved to be abandoned by the heavens.
