Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 128 Will You Take Responsibility
Jean kept silent. She left the room after listening to Myer’s advice. Farra sighed as the door shut.
“Will Benny be happy if she does this? If he finds out that it’s because of his amputation that Jean only agreed to... He will be
dejected.” Farra seemed to have aged after going through the events.
She had seen Jean’s actions and determination in the past few days. It was undeniable that she had prejudice against Jean
because of the Eyer family’s problems. “Then he mustn’t find out the truth!”
He lowered his voice. “Benny just managed to survive this accident. We should fulfill all that he wants. We can make it up to him
later. The most important thing now is his life.”
Farra mumbled, “You’re right. He is our only son.” Even if the world ends, Ben must survive! ...
At the same time, reporters swarmed around Edgar in a corridor. “Mr. Royden, has your company launched an investigation into
the accident at Thunderbolt Cup?”
“There are rumors that it might be a set-up. What are your opinions?”
“It seems that your former wife, Ms. Eyer, has a close relationship with Ben Ludwig. They might be in a relationship. Is it a
coincidence that the two of them were in the car together?”
They swamped him with questions.
“Besides, Royden Group is the largest sponsor for the Thunderbolt Cup this time around. Your company has suffered great loss
now that there’s such a scandal. Will you still be sponsoring these races in the future?”
Edgar was stony-faced. The reporter’s questions were infuriating. He was about to speak when another person spoke. “They are
not in a relationship. Their problems have nothing to do with the Royden Group. Besides, it was just an accident. Talk to Jean
Eyer if you have questions.”
Gigi stood behind the reporters, frowning.
As the cameras turned to her, she continued, irritated. “There’s nothing for us to explain. Anything may happen in these races.
The investigation is still ongoing. Who knows if the two of them were the ones who had made a mistake!”

With her words, Edgar and Royden Group were clear of any responsibility. Jean exited the elevator with a nurse when she heard
Gigi’s words. She spotted Gigi standing next to Edgar, refuting the reporters.
There wasn’t a problem with their standpoint and explanation. But the investigation wasn’t even concluded yet. How could they
say that they had nothing to do with it?
Jean clenched the bottle of medicine in her hand. Edgar, you are worse than I thought.
Seeing that the reporters were taken aback, Gigi felt smug. She held on to Edgar’s arm. “Edgar has stayed here in the hospital
for a few days out of his sense of responsibility. He has done what should be done. If anyone else says things behind his back,
it’s their problem.”
Is she talking about the Ludwig family and Jean?
Edgar glanced at her. He wasn’t going to say those things. But the reporters would have recorded everything. It was difficult to
take back the words.
He was about to stop Gigi when he caught sight of Jean walking past. He felt a frosty gaze on him. His heart sank. Gigi clung to
him tightly and whispered, “Edgar, I didn’t come alone. Uncle Edbert is here too. Let’s go meet him.” “Uncle Edbert?”
He swallowed his anger. He had instructed that Edbert mustn’t hear about the incident. Edbert had just returned from overseas.
Edgar hoped that he could take some time to rest.
But the news had travelled to him. “Edgar, the reporters are watching us,” Gigi reminded him. She leaned on him, displaying their
intimacy.
He glanced at her. He didn’t push her away and just walked away toward the first floor. In the hospital room, the nurse changed
Ben’s medicine and reminded Jean again. “This has to be changed at eleven tonight. You just need to press the bell to call for
the nurse.”
Jean nodded. She was familiar with things since a few days had passed. Farra was watching them from the other side of the
room. Disregarding Jean’s debts and her failed marriage, even Farra had to admit that she was perfect as a daughter-in-law.
“Mom, don’t stare at Jeannie. She’ll get shy,” Ben joked. He didn’t know what had happened, but his mother could interact
peacefully with Jean after he woke up.

Their family even cut off all relations with the Sans family. The problem he had been worrying over for the past month was
solved.
He felt he was in heaven despite the pains in his body.
“Do you want some apples?” Farra changed the topic with a smile.
When Jean sent the nurse out, she saw the reporters heading in her direction. With the microphones in their hands, they seemed
imposing.
Jean’s face darkened. Ben had just had his first surgery. His body hadn’t healed yet. He needed time to rest.
How could Edgar send the reporters here?
She turned toward the room. “I’ll deal with the reporters. Don’t come out.”
She shut the door behind her.
Ben was worried and wanted Farra to help him out of the room.
“She said, don’t go. You’re not healed yet!” She pressed him down on the bed.
Ben struggled. “Mom, you don’t know that Jean hates reporters. When her family was in trouble, she hadn’t had peace in prison.
How could I let her deal with those people for my sake?”
Farra gradually loosened her grip.
She couldn’t tell Ben that Jean was caring for him out of guilt, not love.
But who else could offer up their life for another person just like so?
Farra approved of Jean at that moment. “Benny, I’ll lift you up.”
On the other side of the door, Jean held on to the doorknob, refusing the reporters’ entry.
“Ms. Eyer, we’re here to interview Mr. Ludwig. Please let us in!”

“You can just interview me then.” Jean observed the reporter. “Are you from the municipal television station? I know that your
director, Ms. Wagner, was sent to jail due to her corruption. I was her cellmate.”
The reporter shut his mouth.
The other reporters directed their microphones and cameras toward Jean.
“Ms. Eyer, can you talk about your current relationship? Are you in a relationship with Mr. Ludwig?”
Jean contemplated. “That’s a private part of my life. I don’t have to reply to you.”
“Then are you...”
“Aren’t you curious about the accident?” Jean asked them. “The investigation by the Racing Association hasn’t been concluded
yet. We are waiting for them as well. But I can tell you, as a participant, that we had done a complete inspection of the car before
the race. There weren’t any problems at the time. As to who was in charge of the car after the inspection, that requires
investigation.”
Jean’s firm words reverberate in the corridor.
“Ms. Eyer, do you mean that someone has tampered with the car? Will you take responsibility for this claim?”
