Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 33 The Answer
Ben Ludwig’s racing outfit was blowing in the wind. He only had the confidence to confess his feelings to Jean Eyer after he won
first place.
Offstage, Sonny Kalzarc tossed his cap excitedly. “Attaboy, I knew you had feelings for her. In the future, our team will be an
unbeatable team with an amazing couple!”
“Go get her, Ben Ludwig!” Everyone else started to chant, “Jean Eyer, say yes.”
Countless cameras were facing them, ready to immortalize the captivating moment. It must be so romantic to have the Goblet of
Flames champion propose on stage. Nonetheless...
Jean Eyer wrinkled her brow. Her answer would humiliate Ben Ludwig. At this moment, the cheers slowly died down. Everyone
realized the main character on the stage was silent. “Is she shy?”
“The Dark Horse is so handsome! I heard he comes from a good family. Why must he choose a divorcee?”
“Proposing right in front of her ex-husband, Mr. Ludwig must be provoking Edgar Royden on purpose!” The whispers grew
louder.
Edgar Royden’s eyes intensified with anger at the commotion. He glared at Jean Eyer fiercely. It was as if he would mercilessly
crush her the moment she accepted.
Onstage, Ben Ludwig held out a diamond ring. Slowly and solemnly, he said, “Jean Eyer, I know the past few years have been
very painful for you, but you need to move forward. I want to be the person you walk out of hard times with!”
There were shouts coming from the audience, “Say yes! Say yes!”
Jean Eyer wavered. The ring was beautiful. As long as she said yes, she didn’t have to worry about the Eyer Group’s debts. She
could safely and peacefully live out the rest of her life.
However...
She unintentionally glanced at the figure by her side. The intense gaze enveloped her. Edgar Royden, who had been staring at
her from the side, felt a strange rush of envy that displeased him.

His face was cold as he tapped his wristwatch behind him.
Miles immediately communicated to the person in charge, “Mr. Royden has other schedules. Please finish the prize-giving
ceremony as soon as possible.”
“Yes, of course, definitely!” Mr. Lane hurriedly gave orders to his subordinates. At this point, Ben Ludwig was so nervous that his
hands were cold. He said softly, “Jean Eyer, give me an answer.”
His eyes brimmed with anticipation. As long as she accepted, he wouldn’t even hesitate to go up against the Royden Group
business empire.
On stage, a gentle breeze swept through Jean Eyer’s texturized hair at the nape of her neck. It revealed a pair of eyes that was
empty on the inside but smiling on the outside. “Stop playing, Ben Ludwig. You bought this at the mall last night, right?”
Jean Eyer’s humorous tone spread into everyone’s ears through the microphone. It can’t be, was this just a joke?
Jean Eyer reached out her hand and pulled Ben Ludwig up with slight force. She conveniently took the diamond ring in and
turned it around in her palm.
She knew that Ben Ludwig was the only child of the Ludwig family. She also knew that although the Ludwig Group was no match
for Edgar Royden, they were still a reputable family in Yorktown.
But some things just can’t be changed. There was no spark between her and Ben Ludwig. “I’m not joking, Jean Eyer...”
Jean Eyer didn’t give him a chance to explain. She smiled and stuffed the diamond ring back into the pocket of Ben Ludwig’s
racing outfit. “Alright, everyone’s time is precious, so let’s carry on with the prize-giving ceremony!”
The fog in Edgar Royden’s eyes started to clear up after what Jean Eyer said. He hooked one hand onto the trophy that wasn’t
exactly light and stuffed it into Ben Ludwig’s hands. “Must you use your private affairs to take up everyone’s time, Mr. Ludwig?”
Even the photographer could feel the icy atmosphere and was stifled with silence. Mr. Royden must’ve gotten angry because he
waited too long.
Jean Eyer couldn’t care less about Edgar Royden’s temperamental moods. She held up the other end of the trophy and
celebrated with others in the team. She nudged the still stunned Ben Ludwig with her elbow.

“This is live!” Ben Ludwig had no choice but to muster up a smile. He put one hand around her shoulder and whistled towards
the camera. “In the next competition, we’ll still be the champion!”
“Champion, Dark Horse!” The atmosphere was lit up once again...
Edgar Royden stared coldly at the both of them. Suppressing the anger in his heart, he turned to leave with Mr. Lane. Jean Eyer
stood on stage while holding the trophy firmly.
As she said, she would win! At this moment, Ben Ludwig’s mom, Farra Emilio, turned pale at the live scene of the prize giving
ceremony. “What kind of spell did she put on my son?”
Recently, Ben Ludwig had been spending a lot of time with the racing team. He had been ignoring matters at the company and at
home, and it turned out to be all because of Jean Eyer?
This woman, who was someone else’s leftovers, had the nerve to let her son get down on one knee in public? Most importantly,
this woman dared to reject her son?
Farra Emilio grit her teeth in anger. “Call Mr. Coleman immediately!” “Yes, Mrs. Ludwig.”
