Edgar and His Destined Wife
Chapter 76

Chapter 76 Send That Beggar Away?

Jean waved for a taxi but did not leave directly. She asked the taxi driver to stop nearby. She chuckled when she saw Gigi and Winnie getting into a car together. "Please follow that car."

The taxi driver glanced at the license plate of the car and asked, "Miss, who are they? I don't do illegal business." "She is... my dad's ex-girlfriend."

Jean said while looking down at her phone. Reece Group's share price dropped again. Winnie had been dreaming of marrying into a wealthy family. She must be jumping up and down now. Sam is different from my father.

Sam is a nouveau riche. With the economic downturn, the Reece family will not survive without capital funding. Jean hummed all the way. She watched Gigi and Winnie entering the Reece residence with joy in her heart.

Suddenly, the taxi driver said, "Miss, we can't enter the luxury gated community in front of us without a key." Jean ignored the taxi driver. She took out her mobile phone and called someone. Meanwhile, at the Reece residence...

Gigi rushed into her house, "Dad, what's going on?"

"Shut up!" Sam was on the phone, trying to ask an old friend for help. He turned around and yelled at Gigi. Gigi was shocked. She turned to look at Winnie and remained silent.

On the other hand, Winnie's mobile phone rang. It was an unknown caller. She hesitated for a while, then picked up the call. "Who's speaking?"

"It's me. I'm outside the Reece residence. Can I go in?" Jean looked down at her shoes. She wasn't surprised to hear Winnie's nervous voice.

"I'm coming out now!"

Winnie grabbed her handbag and walked out anxiously.

Tears welled up in Winnie's eyes as soon as she saw Jean. "Jean, you have lost so much weight. Are you suffering? Why didn't you come to me earlier?" Jean frowned.

She never realized that Winnie had such good acting skills.

Jean looked at Winnie emotionlessly, "How can I replace you? You changed all your contact numbers, and you even moved."

"That's... because I'm afraid of those debt collectors. I really have no choice but to leave. I'm sorry that I didn't keep my promise to your father to protect you." Winnie burst into tears. Jean stared hopelessly at Winnie.

Only if Winnie would show that she still had feelings for her father or show a tiny bit of remorse.

But she didn't.

Winnie was carefully observing Jean's expression.

She dragged Jean to the side while crying.

She took out an envelope from her bag and stuffed it into Jean's hand. "This is my savings over the years. I know it's not much, but I hope that I can help you." "Savings?"

"Yes. I didn't have much money and I wasn't your dad's wife when he passed away. That was why I didn't contribute to his funeral. It won't do him any good too, even if I had stayed at the Eyer residence. Do you understand?"

Yes.

She is asking me to seek revenge from someone else, but not her. I should not bother her dream of living a wealthy life.

Jean calmed herself down and tried to act pitiful, "My dad left something for you before he died. He asked me to pass them to you."

"What is it?" Winnie was a little surprised.

She didn't expect the sudden windfall. Her mouth tilted slightly when she looked at the Reece residence, "Jean, go back first. I have things to settle today. I'll visit you tomorrow. Is that okay?" "Go ahead, Winnie. I'll see you tomorrow."

Jean left. When she turned around, Winnie was no longer there.

Just like what she did when the Eyer family was in trouble. She disappeared and never came back.

Jean clenched the envelope in her hand.

She was waiting for the perfect moment to carry out her revenge.

Jean glanced at the time and took a taxi to the hospital.

Sam was scolding Gigi when Winnie went into the house.

"I asked you to win Edgar's heart, but look at what you did! The Royden family has pulled out their investment!" Sam was very angry. "Call Edgar immediately and ask if he still wants to be the son-in-law of the Reece family!"

Sam thought that his daughter was in great demand, but Edgar actually pulled out his investment immediately after the Reece family got into trouble. He wouldn't tolerate anyone who might pose a negative impact on the Royden Group.

Gigi cried after being scolded, "Dad, I can't make this call. Edgar and I have started to grow apart recently. I'm afraid that he would hate me even more if I bother him now."

Winnie tried to help, so she hurried over and said, "Sam, I need to talk to you.”

"Talk about what?"

Sam was really angry.

But Winnie knew him well. Winnie seduced him with her good-looking face and well-maintained body figure.

His anger disappeared in a split second.

Winnie dragged Sam into the room.

A few minutes later, Sam said softly, "Well, since you have a great relationship with Gigi, I'll let you talk to her. If the both of you can change Edgar's mind, I will buy you whatever you want."

"I did all these for our family. I want nothing but the best for both of you." Winnie whined. She then flipped her hair, twisted her waist, and walked out.

Sam lit a cigarette with satisfaction.

I did marry the right person.

Gigi looked at Winnie in astonishment, "Have you calmed my dad down?"

Winnie smiled, "All men are the same. I will teach you the techniques step by step. Call Edgar and ask him out tomorrow. We will go and meet him together." "But..."

"I can change Edgar's mind, and I'm sure that he will marry you in the future."
