Chapter 226 Tremendous Change

Edgar’s expression changed at once. Jean couldn’t hear what he said, but could only see all the medical staff in the

emergency room being summoned by him, and they looked terrified.

Thereafter, she was sent to an examination room. She was given the best resources in the hospital. A few directors

waited outside the examination room with anxious looks. Jean cooperated with the medical staff, but she didn’t

understand why they looked fearful.

She caught a glance of Edgar, who was standing outside the room. Anyone would be intimidated by the solemn and

cold aura he emanated.

“Miss Eyer?” A doctor waved his hand in front of Jean and passed her a piece of paper. The examination process

was written on the paper, and her cooperation was required to complete the checkup.

An hour later, Jean was sent back to the VIP ward. She could see the most beautiful river view through the window.

Although the winter scene looked slightly melancholy, Jean’s mood was lifted when she gazed at the wide view.

Meanwhile, Edgar stood behind her and stared at her back.

“Mr. Royden, this is the examination result.” Miles walked in with a few pieces of paper and passed them to Edgar.

Post-traumatic stress disorder. Loss of hearing. Unknown recovery period.

Edgar rubbed his temples, his eyes tinged with weariness.

He shouldn’t have just sent someone to secretly protect Jean. If luck wasn’t on her side, she might not be standing

here and enjoying the view.

“Alright. You may go out.”

Edgar waved his hand, and kept the examination report in his coat pocket.

Jean turned around to see him standing quietly in the room without the intention to leave.

“You…” Just as Edgar was about to speak up, he was reminded that Jean had lost her hearing, so he took out his

phone and typed. Then, he walked over to show her the text.

Jean glanced at the screen, and walked past Edgar with a straight face to lie down on the bed.

Seeing her response, Edgar furrowed his brows. What an ungrateful woman!

Having read Edgar’s expression, Jean blurted, “I knew it. You want me to stay here, and I’m not allowed to go

anywhere without your permission.” She scoffed and continued, “We’re no longer related to each other. You don’t

have to care if I die or live.”

I own my legs. I have the freedom to decide where I want to go. So what if Edgar is extremely powerful? He’s no

one to control me.

The reason Jean hadn’t left was because she could get her hearing treated in the hospital, and meals were

provided freely. After all, she couldn’t hear what Edgar was saying.

Edgar’s eyes darkened. He wanted to say something, but he ended up biting his tongue and leaving with a cold

face.

After covering herself with the blanket, Jean closed her eyes as she reckoned Edgar must have left out of

frustration.

However, the latter returned with a bag of documents a moment, and started working in the ward, disregarding the

others.

Jean supported herself with her elbow and leaned against the bed. “You…”

Edgar did not even spare a glance at her but continued to focus on his work.

Jean felt as if he was nagging her, but all that she could hear was silence.

Oh well, since I can’t hear anything, I’ll just take it as if nothing happened.

At that thought, Jean stopped being bothered by Edgar’s existence and went to sleep.

Little did she know that within the few hours since she had was admitted to the hospital, the world outside was in

disorder.

The drivers of the two trucks were detained because upon the traffic police’s investigation, it turned out that one of

the medium-sized trucks had been tailing Jean, and was suspected of intentional homicide.

Meanwhile, the other truck was loaded with inventories from Royden Group. However, the driver’s name was not

found in Royden Group’s staff list. The driver refused to reveal why he stole Royden Group’s truck.

From the surveillance camera’s footage, it could be seen that the driver had deliberately accelerated to block the

other truck from banging into Jean. Otherwise, Jean would have suffered a much more serious injury.

Nonetheless, the driver refused to cooperate with the police’s investigation, which caused the inspection progress

to be obstructed.

As the person in charge of the company, Edgar was summoned to cooperate with the investigation too.

Once again, he was associated with Jean’s name.

“Let me in!” Ben hurried to the hospital, but was blocked outside the ward by Edgar’s bodyguards.

Hearing the commotion, Edgar lifted his eyes to gaze at Jean, who was sleeping soundly on the bed without being

interrupted by the noise at all.

Narrowing his eyes, Edgar put down the documents and walked out of the ward.

“Edgar Royden, who are you to stop me from seeing her? You guys have already divorced long ago. You have no

right to do so!” Ben was so anxious that his eyes became red-rimmed. He dashed forward to seize Edgar’s collar

the moment he saw him walk out.

However, the bodyguards quickly pulled him away from Edgar.

Edgar straightened his collar and glanced at Ben apathetically. “Mr. Ludwig, why do you think this incident

happened right after she left Ludwig Residence?”

Ben frowned. “The police are still investigating it…”

“If you didn’t bring her to Ludwig Residence, my men could have ensured her safety. Thanks to you, she is lying

inside the ward now.”

Ben’s eyes darkened.

“L-Let me see her!”

“Impossible.” Edgar blurted coldly, and was about to enter the ward.

Ben was so eager to see Jean that he did not care about anything else, and yelled with all his strength, “Jean, please

let me take a look at you!”

However, there was no response from Jean no matter how loud he yelled.

Edgar shot a cold glare at him. “Are you done with yelling? Get lost now.”

Just as Edgar was about to slam the door shut, Ben dashed up and pushed against the door. “Edgar Royden, why do

you approach her again and again?” He asked through the door gap.

Edgar’s eyes turned increasingly frigid and profound. “Why do you think? We’re all men. Is it hard to understand

why I want her?”

Bang!

With that, the door was slammed shut, leaving Ben outside the ward.

Ben remained in a daze for a long time as Edgar’s words lingered in his mind.

“Mr. Ludwig, Madam urged you to go home earlier, lest the reporters or some others catch sight of you and try to

implicate you.” Mr. Coleman said while opening the car door. He had been waiting in the car park for some time.

Ben remained expressionless in the car. As soon as he stepped into the door of Ludwig Residence, he fainted.

Meanwhile, in Reece Residence, Gigi sat on the couch furiously. “Didn’t you say that it would definitely succeed this

time? But it turns out that Jean is still alive!”

Sitting across from Gigi, Winnie could only endure it as Gigi screamed at her. After all, she was the one who

guaranteed that the plan would succeed this time.

Little did she expect that not only was Jean safe and sound, but Edgar was now looking after her carefully, and the

reputation of Royden Group depended on Jean.

If Jean spoke, there could be a tremendous change in the current situation.

It turned out that Winnie had provided Jean with such a great opportunity,

Gigi naturally couldn’t reconcile herself with the situation. She was already displeased with Winnie to begin with,

and she became even more frustrated at the sight of her at that moment. “Dad, don’t we own a villa at Alter

Valley? Please arrange for Winnie to move there. My child is due soon. I don’t want my mood to be affected by the

sight of some annoying people.”
