Chapter 487

“Miss Eyer, there must be a misunderstanding.Let’s go in and have a look when the reporter leaves.It must not be the case” said Liam.

The reporter looked at Jean’s expression several times.She sat languidly in the back seat and didn’t show signs of anger.

He refused to drive away, and Jean couldn’t get out of the car either.

If they were to exit, reporters would come swarming to their vehicle.

It would be more trouble than it’s worth.

As time passed by, Miles secretly sent a message to Nathan for help.

The man was proven reliable when a flashy Bugatti drove by the entrance, and reporters followed with haste.

Miles held on to his steering wheel and heaved a sigh of relief.I can keep my job.

Leaning out of the vehicle window, Nathan peered inside the villa before motioning for Miles to enter.

Miles’s eyes became wider.

Do I still enter this scenario? Although he claimed to believe in his own president’s character, they had been by themselves for some time.

Wouldn’t it be an issue to enter now?

“Miles?”

Jean had just woken up from a slumber, and when she opened her eyes again, Miles was slumped in the driver’s seat.

With a hopeless groan, Miles pressed the gas pedal and drove his car through Royden’s front gate.

Jean can only exit the vehicle now that he is here.

Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, he saw a young girl standing next to Edgar.

She was dressed like a student.

For a moment, Jean was in a daze.

She was about this age when she first met Edgar.

Only now, times have changed.

Miles asked with extreme caution, constantly observing Jean’s facial expression.

“Miss Eyer, I think there must be a misunderstanding.It just so happens that Mr.Knox is here too.Let’s go in and have a look?”

“All good”

Jean walked up the steps.She pushed open the door and heard a cello solo playing in the living room.

After taking a shower, Edgar was standing with somewhat damp hair.

The girl never looked away from Edgar’s physique, and her eyes were filled with admiration.

Jean was familiar with the sensation of covert admiration.

That kind of atmosphere made others feel as if they shouldn’t disturb them with their presence.

Standing on one side, Nathan coughed to gather attention in the room.

“Well, let me introduce you to Xena Sparks, a student from Horizon University.This is Jean.”

Hearing Jean’s name, the smile on Xena’s face disappeared.She looked over in shock as her pupils began to tremble.

Jean approached her with a kind grin and a generous stride.She was far too like the girl in front of her.

The same simplicity and demeanor, a carbon copy of her earlier self.

“Hello.”

The moment Jean extended out her hand, the music was just about to reach its peak.

Following some hesitation, Xena timidly stretched out and touched Jean’s fingertips.It was far duller than Nathan had anticipated.He scowled before giving Edgar a wink and spoke, “Jean, don’t misunderstand me.Royden had merely begged Xena to come and briefly shelter in his house because those reporters had blocked the door.Having the reporter divulge her identity is not a smart idea-’ Jean hummed.

Again, the atmosphere became chilly.

Edgar sneezed against the breeze as he looked out the open window in the living room.

“Mr.Royden, go and dry your hair, or you’ll catch a cold”

She immediately ran over and closed the windows.

At that moment, Nathan’s eyes lit up.

This was the desired outcome, but the next instant, he was essentially powerless, and Jean’s attitude remained unchanged.

His heart ached, “If there was anything left from the day before yesterday, do you need to check upstairs Xena?”

Xena blinked but still didn’t understand.

Edgar frowned, “I’ll go up.”

Xena was stunned for a while, and then slowly moved to follow.

“Mr.Royden? I’ll do it.”

Every male ought to desire an attractive, respectful, and reasonable girl.

Jean averted her glance and turned to face Nathan and Miles.

“You may now go because I’m also here.”

After being shocked for two seconds, Miles glanced at Nathan as though he needed assistance.

Nathan scratched his forehead, “Jean, recently our company has a design project.I wonder if you are interested.Would you like to talk about it?”

Knowing that he had other intentions, Jean agreed.

Jean turned around and gave a curt ‘okay’.

Edgar soon took Xena down the stairs.

Although she was only following the other, they were considerably closer together than previously.

It turned out that they were so comfortable in the space that they were able to enter and exit at a whim.

Suddenly, Jean’s eyes began to itch, and she rubbed them.

“Miles, take her back; Edgar said.

He added, “Talk to the reporters, she’s still in school, after all”

“Understood, Mr.Royden.”

Miles was prepared to take Xena away right away because he had long longed to go.

However, she remained completely still and only stared obstinately at Edgar.

“Mr.Royden, think about what I just said, okay? Please.”

After Xena finished speaking, she looked at Jean and Nathan and bowed slightly.

Jean smiled back.

The next second, she and Miles left.

Nathan asked directly, “Jean, what do you think of Xena?”

Despite appearing to be disinterested, Edgar lifted his hand to tighten the watch while keeping his whole focus on Jean’s side. Jean asked knowingly, “What about it?”

She pretended not to understand.

“It’s the first time I’ve met her, so I’m afraid I can’t give any substantive opinions.Besides, I’m not qualified to judge her” Edgar’s eyes darkened.

Nathan fumbled, “It’s not for you to evaluate, but…”

“Mr.Knox has something to say directly.You don’t need to be so devious, and you don’t need to use your company’s project bonus as bait.”

Jean closed the project book he took out and pushed it back to Nathan.

“I can’t take it down at all, and I don’t want to force the company’s employees too much.If Mr.Knox has nothing else to do, then I will leave first.”

When Jean had finished speaking, she stood up, lowered her voice, and murmured sweetly, “I didn’t pay attention to the contents of those gossip news, but now, I am suddenly interested to go back and read more.”

Edgar’s back was stiff, and he hurried over to block her way.

“That night, Nathan and I drank too much.We both couldn’t drive, so we found a replacement driver.Without saying a word, Jean raised her gaze to the side.After their eyes met, she smiled, “You don’t need to over explain yourself because it has nothing to do with me”

Edgar frowned.

Jean moved to the side, “I won’t disturb you.” Content rights by NôvelDrama.Org.

Nathan instantly leaned forward as she left, “Hurry up and chase after her!”

Edgar didn’t move.His demeanor turned cold, “What’s the use of chasing her back.”
