Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 530

Pregnant out of wedlock! Jean wasn't seeing anyone and didn't have a steady boyfriend.

It was unclear who the child's father was.

Even with the reporter's professional etiquette, she couldn't help but reveal a surprised expression.

At this time, Xena's smile seemed panicked.

"Ch no, did I say something that I shouldn't have? Don't spread this outside."

She seemed to have paled in appearance as though she had committed a cardinal sin.

"Jean, I'm sorry.I...was too frank.It seems like I shouldn't have said anything."

Xena blinked and mumbled softly, "But even if I didn't say anything, everyone would have been able to tell sooner or later.There's no way to trick others when you're pregnant."

Trick? Jean's face was cold, and she pulled her hand away.

She answered icily, "This is my private affair.Is this considered a trick?"

And no one had asked her.

Moreover, she didn't need to clarify this to anyone.

Xena had an awkward expression, but she could feel that the air around them was strange.

Everyone didn't look at Jean as admiringly as they had.

Xena was delighted deep in her heart.

"I'm really sorry, Jean.I will contact those from the television station right away.I will never let them report about this at all costs"

Xena was making matters worse.

Xena wanted to bribe the media.

Did she think that the news wasn't explosive enough? And the reporter hadn't said a thing.

She had been planning and executing all by herself as she spoke.

Even the reporter who was interviewing Jean couldn't bear to watch.

She said, "Actually, this is Ms.Eyer's private affairs."

"But so many people have heard it," Xena mumbled softly as she sized up Jean's expression.

She still had tricks up her sleeve.

Just as Xena was about to say something again, the door opened.

Edgar went to Jean's right side and put a vacuum flask in her hands.

"I'm late."

It was as though there was a deeper meaning to what he said.

A visually beautiful scene was naturally formed as the two stood together.

The photographer immediately took a few photographs.

Xena's expression was slightly nasty, but she repressed her envy.

As long as she didn't bring it up, Edgar wouldn't know that she had a ‘slip of the tongue’ and revealed the news.

"The interview hasn't ended, has it?"

Edgar asked as he sat down graciously.

The reporter's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Of course not.It would be great if you could discuss your insight and experience in the business circle."

This was the absolute highlight that could boost the television station's ratings.

It was too petty to report whether Jean was pregnant.It didn't suit the style of the city's television station.

Edgar smiled lightly, and his eyes swept outside the door.

Miles immediately walked in and said, "Ms.Xena, you have a guest."

Before Xena could be astonished, she was pulled out by Miles.

As they walked, Xena came to her senses and said coldly, "No one is looking for me.You're lying"

Miles couldn't be bothered to continue keeping up the act.

"Since you understand, Ms.Xena, please return to your office.Before Mr.Royden gives his instructions, you shouldn't take even a half-step out."

Miles had already been tactful as he passed the message from Edgar.

If he said it like Edgar, he feared that Xena would cry again.

Xena's eyes widened.

"On what grounds? I want to go back, and I need to be interviewed by the reporter."

"You don't have to waste your time, Ms.Xena.Every shot of you will be edited out, and there won't be anything related to you in the final interview."

With a single word from Edgar, such a result could be achieved.

Xena was dumbfounded. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

She grew furious.

"Why is he treating me like this? Is it because I accidentally said that Jean was pregnant?"

Xena was overwhelmed and wanted to turn back immediately to contend with Edgar.

"Mr.Royden is trying to say that you had better not act rashly if you still want to stay in Royden Group."

No matter how dumb Xena was, she understood what it meant.

She slowly turned and gritted her teeth.

"I'm just telling it like it is.Even if Edgar wants to protect Jean's reputation, he can't..."

"Mr.Royden is protecting their child" Miles said lightly.

His gaze was cool.

"Ms.Xena, you may think I'm meddlesome as I remind you that you can't touch the internal disputes in Royden Group.You better get away as soon as possible.Otherwise...you won't even know when you're used as bait."

Miles walked around Xena and left after that.

After he left, two bodyguards dressed in black suits immediately appeared at the other end of the corridor.

They came to Xena, one in front of the other.

"This way, Ms.Xena’ Even though they asked nicely, if Xena dared to be uncooperative, they would show no mercy and use force.Xena was virtually ‘abducted’ to her office.Furthermore, there was a surveillance camera in her office, right on her desk.

"From now on, everything you do will be reported to Mr.Royden at once."

Upon hearing the cold and expressionless directions from the bodyguards, Xena gritted her teeth in a fury.

"He can't treat me like this!"

But no matter how much she fussed around and screamed, the bodyguards ignored her.

Conversely, the reporter became more enthusiastic as she continued the interview because Edgar was very cooperative.

As someone who thought television interviews were beneath him, he was going all out today.

"Lastly, could you please talk about your mental process of starting and going into a business? Or do you have any suggestions for young people who have the opportunity to go into the finance industry?"

Edgar frowned.

"Am I very old?"

"I didn't mean that.It's your position and rich experience in the finance circle."

The reporter immediately smoothened things out.

His deep eyes slowly lifted, and his voice was deep but extremely convincing.

He spoke simply and didn't mention anything wrong about the industry.

Finally, he said, "I hope that no matter where they are, they don't do something that they will regret for the rest of their life."

Upon hearing that, the reporter's curiosity was piqued.

"Mr.Royden, do you mean to say that you've done something that you'll regret for the rest of your life?"

The baton of conversation was passed to him again.

"Yes"

He didn't avoid it at all.

Before the reporter could ask another question, he declared his feelings openly.

"I lost the person I love the most because of my ignorance.It's too late to regret now: The reporter and the photographer were dumbstruck and had curious expressions.Jean wanted to stop him, but it was already too late.

"Although she's next to me, it's like a whole galaxy between us."

It wouldn't have been so damaging if anyone else had said it.

But it came from Edgar, someone who never wasted time on things like relationships.

Today, he seemed like a lovesick fool who was staring at his ex-wife stupidly.

The photographer caught the moment when their eyes met.He clicked the shutter with satisfaction.

The photograph went viral in the next few hours.
