Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 119 I Can’t Hear That Well
Jean Eyer furrowed her brow. “I don’t care too much about things that don’t have anything to do with me.”
Maybe this was why she was never much of a gossipmonger. If it wasn’t for Sally Lance who fed her buzz through the grapevine,
Jean Eyer might not have known today about Sky Wilton being in the hospital.
Sally Lance looked at her and after a while said, “Jean Eyer, I envy you.”
“You envy me?” Jean Eyer frowned and smiled lightly while shaking her head. “Envying Kellan Lincoln is better than envying
me.”
Her cellphone vibrated with a buzz. It was a text message from the debt collection company.
Jean Eyer glanced at it and sent over the money that Winnie Campbell transferred to her. She also added, ‘I’ve discussed this
with your boss. There are changes in the total amount of the debt.’
She wanted to pay this sum back as soon as possible and wipe clean all relationships she had with that man. Her days were
filled with hardship. What was worth envying?
“I’m leaving. You guys go ahead.” Jean Eyer picked up her bag and left quickly. Sally Lance watched the leaving figure, and her
gaze flickered.
Kellan Lincoln came back with food and when he noticed that Jean Eyer had left, he said regretfully, “I thought I could treat you
both to a meal today.”
Sally Lance patted his shoulder. “Don’t worry, there’ll be more opportunities.”
Kellan Lincoln saw her innocent smile and asked her in a low voice, “Don’t you think the distance between us and Jean Eyer is
further apart?”
Sally Lance was startled for a moment before taking the ice cream from his hand. “Eat up, or it’ll melt soon.”
Each mouthful was an icy, frosty feeling. She said while walking, “Jean Eyer has always been someone from a different world
than us.”
Kellan Lincoln heard this, and all of a sudden, he didn’t know what to say.

Sally Lance looked at him and smiled. “Jean Eyer will go back to the world she came from sooner or later. With her abilities, I
believe she can do it.”
She wouldn’t criticize Jean Eyer behind her back like people at the office. The respect and admiration she had for Jean Eyer
were written in her eyes, not hidden at all.
In the afternoon that same day, Jean Eyer received a notification from the company. She would replace Sky Wilton as a
newcomer and join next week’s big show.
“Me?”
“Yes, this instruction came from the company’s senior management. You can report to the venue early tomorrow morning.”
This big show was MON & Co.’s annual show which was the most popular.
A lot of jewelry and big brands were displayed here.
By joining an event of this scale, she easily got an admission ticket to the Jewelry Design Hall.
Jean Eyer was so excited she couldn’t sleep well the whole night. People like Gigi Reece and Sky Wilton slipped her mind.
Early the next day, she rushed to the venue according to the notified time.
One of the staff, Elisa, had been waiting for her at the entrance. “Are you Ms. Eyer? Please come in.”
Jean Eyer nodded lightly and followed her into the elevator.
Immediately after that, her hands were stuffed with the layout flyer of the day and a cup of coffee.
“Some of our other guests have arrived. Please come in.”
When the door opened, Jean Eyer saw an extremely beautiful booth that extended from the entrance to the stage inside.
There was some jewelry displayed. Each one was a high-end item from each season of MON & Co.
Items of significant value were on the exhibition area of the second floor.
Those who were invited to a big show like this were either famous business people or people from the high-end fashion world.
Ordinary people weren’t even qualified to receive the invitation.

Jean Eyer had seen these important people before, but at the moment, after going through those times, she still felt some
emotion standing where she was.
“Jean Eyer.”
Someone called out her name and waved from the second floor. It was Monica Weller.
Jean Eyer nodded her thanks to the staff.
She went up to the second floor, and Monica Weller introduced her to some well-known designers in the industry.
They had slight fame within the jewelry design circle, and some were even more esteemed than Monica Weller. When Jean Eyer
stepped in, they just glanced at her before talking to the people beside them.
Monica Weller also thought little of them and dragged Jean Eyer to the balcony at the side. She held a cigarette and looked at
Jean Eyer.
Jean Eyer smiled. “I’m good.”
Monica Weller lit it up. “Have you been to the hospital?”
“Mm,” replied Jean Eyer.
Monica Weller put her head down and chuckled. “Edgar Royden could’ve done a lot worse. People like Sky Wilton should’ve
gone to hell a long time ago. By staying in this circle, he’d ruin the whole pool of water with his filth.”
Jean Eyer stayed silent.
As if realizing she didn’t want to continue this topic, Monica Weller quietly smoked her cigarette. “This big show is an opportunity
for you. Don’t miss it.”
Someone called her from the outside, so she patted Jean Eyer’s shoulder and left.
Jean Eyer looked down and happened to see a few cars parked at the entrance. She saw many security guards moving safes
full of jewelry.
Holding on to the railing, her eyes were cold.

In the hospital room, Sky Wilton just had his stitches removed by the doctor.
He saw his swollen face in the mirror and shattered the mirror.
“Don’t be angry. The doctor said you will slowly recover.” Zoe Hadly was peeling an apple for him by his side.
Sky Wilton grabbed her over as soon as she finished speaking.
There was dark anger in his eyes. “Recover? How do I recover when I was beaten up like this! You’re so stupid. You can’t even
get a memory card back! Do I really have to give that whore ten million?”
His low voice sounded like it came from hell.
Zoe Hadly subconsciously stepped back to take cover. She was holding a fruit knife in her hands, but she didn’t have the
courage to stab him.
“You shouldn’t have laid a hand on Jean Eyer.” Zoe Hadly held back her tears and said in a low voice.
“Ha...”
Sky Wilton spat on her face. “I’m sick of playing with you, so I wanted something new. Couldn’t I do that?”
Zoe Hadly was pushed back by him. She fell powerlessly to the floor.
Her palm was cut. Bearing the pain, she stood up slowly. “Your medicine is in the thermos cup. I’m going to leave.”
After Zoe Hadly left, the door was opened again.
“What did you leave behind? Can’t you grow a brain!”
“Mr. Wilton, Mr. Royden wants to see you.” Miles pushed, and Sky Wilton fell from the hospital bed and was dragged out.
The big corridor was empty.
Sky Wilton was struggling and swearing, but when he was thrown at Edgar Royden’s feet, it was like someone was choking him.
He couldn’t say a word.
“I think I’ve told those from MON & Co. not to lay a hand on Jean Eyer.”

Sky Wilton clenched his fist and laughed dryly. “I just came back from overseas. I didn’t know about Mr. Royden and your ex-
wife’s...”
Before he could finish, the back of his hand was stomped on.
He ground his teeth in pain.
“So, do you know now?”
Edgar Royden’s voice came from the top of his head.
Sky Wilton’s right hand started to become numb. He couldn’t pull it back no matter what. The pain went straight to his brain and
he immediately shouted, “I’m sorry, Mr. Royden. It’s my fault. Please... please let me go.”
“My hearing isn’t that good, I can’t hear well.” Edgar Royden’s eyes were icy cold, and he increased the pressure of his foot.
