Edgar and His Destined Wife
Chapter 91

Chapter 91 I Found You a Sponsor

"Don't worry. I'm not as stupid as Gigi." Jean pulled out a card and waved it before Winnie. "Does this look familiar to you?"

"Isn't this..." Winnie widened her eyes in panic. It was the card she stole from Eyer Residence. The card originally belonged to Jean. Jean said firmly, "You are to return all the money that was originally on this card and not a cent less."

Winnie had no idea what Edgar said to Jean or how Jean managed to recover the card. All Winnie could feel now was panic, and she did not dare to look at Jean."Don't feign ignorance. I checked with the bank. This card originally contained five million."

However, within a month after the Eyer family went bankrupt, someone withdrew that five million through multiple transactions.

My father transferred five million into this card on my birthday. I don't know how Winnie got her hands on this card.

Winnie's face blanched, and she gave a dry laugh. "Jeannie, I didn't know it had so much money. It was your father who insisted on giving it to me."

Jean could not be bothered to expose Winnie's lie.

Instead, she threw the card at Winnie. "You have three days to return the money. Otherwise, I will make the Reece family suffer the same end as the Eyer family."

"Jeannie, don't be so cruel. Gigi and her father didn't do anything wrong."

Jean smirked disdainfully. She stared into Winnie's eyes and threatened. "If you say any more nonsense, I will go in and tell Sam about your past."

Her words scared Winnie into silence and made her let go of her hand.

Winnie did not dare to look at Jean and retreated helplessly.

Then, Jean turned around to leave. She glanced at Winnie and looked away with disgust.

In regards to the VIP card she used to enter Grand Ocean Tower, she borrowed it from Zane. Thus, after the meeting with Winnie, she went to Zane straightaway to return the card.Zane was surprised to see her. He did not expect her to finish using it so soon.

"Ms. Eyer, you can keep using the card a little longer." Zane looked at Jean kindly.

"I don't need it, and I don't have time to spare." Jean frowned before looking at Zane again. "Can you tell me who told you to give me this job?"

She was not sure whether Zane would know if it was Edgar or other bosses who allowed her to work in MON & Co. Jean wanted to know because she considered making a deal with the person who admitted her. She wanted to seize every opportunity she could.

"It was an order from the company's bosses. If you have any questions, I can help send them up." Zane gave the answer he prepared in advance. In fact, he thought she would ask this question much earlier. "Never mind, there is no need to do that."

Jean waved her hand. She was not interested in matters concerning Edgar.

Soon after Jean left, Zane sent an email detailing Jean's whereabouts throughout the week and the people she met. The receiver of the email was someone named 'BOSS'. Ding!

A notification sounded on the computer.

The man seated at the desk moved the mouse and glanced at the content on the screen. His eyes darkened.

At this moment, Miles knocked on the door and walked in. "Mr. Royden, Oprah Group confirmed that they have received the agreement. They have no issues with the conditions, so we can officially start the project next week."

Edgar remained silent.

Then, Miles placed the documents on the table and hesitated before saying, "The negotiation with Ludwig Group is nearly done, but they hope we can raise the price again. They also sent over an invitation to a birthday banquet for Mr. Ludwig's wife."Edgar did not even bother to look at the invitation. "I'm not going."

He would not attend such a pointless banquet.

"Understood, Mr. Royden. I will reply to them." Then, Miles retreated quietly.

Edgar unbuttoned his collar and leaned back in his chair. A beautiful face appeared in his mind.

If Jean acted against Reece Group because of Winnie, is she planning something about Eyer Group next?

He tapped his fingers on the table before picking up the phone receiver and dialing an internal number. "Stop investigating Carl Jackson's car accident and destroy all replaceings."

He did not want anyone else to replace out the truth.

"Yes, Mr. Royden."

Edgar decided to conceal the matter to avoid ruining his relationship with the Jackson family. Jonathan tended to act rashly. Thus, if he found out Jean was the one behind Carl's accident, he would cause an uproar.

I only did this because it is too bothersome to explain. Edgar frowned as he thought.

Jean received a call from Sonny as soon as she got home.

"Jean, if you have time, can you come to the racing team dorm? Ben has shut himself in for a whole day and night. We all knocked on his door, but he wouldn't come out." Sonny sighed and continued, "You are our only hope."

Jean ran her fingers through her hair and was about to reply when another voice sounded. "Is that Jean? Let me talk to her."

Then, Ally grabbed the phone and said, "Jean, Ben hasn't eaten for more than a day. I beg of you. Can you please come and talk to him?"

Jean hung up immediately and left the house.

Ally sobbed and said sadly, "I think I screwed up. Jean hung up on me."

"That can't be." Sonny suddenly realized something and smacked his forehead. What was I thinking? Argh..."

The rest of the racing team members shook their heads.

Half an hour later, Jean brought two burgers and came to the racing team dorm. "You guys should go out. I'll give it a try."

Ally's smile fell when she saw Jean.

"Jean, you hung up on me just now. I thought you wouldn't be coming."

Jean could not be bothered to respond and proceeded to ignore Ally.

"Let me help you." Ally went to help Jean.

Sonny sent the others a glance, and a few people immediately blocked Ally's way.

"Ms. Sans, there's a café downstairs. Let us buy you a cup of coffee."

The men blocking Ally's path were all young and handsome. Since she could not overpower them, she had no choice but to let them take her to the café. Soon, everyone left and closed the door. The place instantly turned silent.

Jean went to Ben's bedroom door and shouted, "There are burgers and beer. I can't finish them alone, so if you are still alive, come out and help me finish them." Then, she sat alone beside the coffee table, turned on the TV, and ate a burger.

She was halfway through her burger when the door opened.

Ben leaned against the door indolently. His eyes were dull. After starving for more than one day, he was famished.

Jean ignored him and kept watching the TV.

Ben walked to the coffee table with his head down, picked up the burger, and began eating.

After a while, Jean said, "You don't have to worry about the racing team expenses. I've found a sponsor for you. All you need to do is race well and don't give up."
