Chapter 104


    Chapter 104 Follow Her Closely


    Gigi chased Winnie out of her room and locked the door. Now, Winnie was left all alone in the Reece


    Residence’s living room.


    She was fuming as she pulled out her phone to call Jean. She scolded the instant Jean answered the


    call, “I’ve been gathering money as you wanted. Why did you break your promise and send those


    messages? What do you stand to gain from this?”


    Silence followed for a long while before Jean finally replied. “Nothing, but it makes me happy.” Winnie’s


    chest heaved violently. She gritted her teeth and replied, “You’re crazy! No wonder Edgar dumped you.”


    “It doesn’t matter. I don’t want him anyway.” Jean rested her chin on one hand while shelling a peanut


    with her other hand. “Oh, by the way, I’ve another gift for you, which should arrive soon. No need to


    thank me.”


    “What? What have you done?”


    Winnie shouted into the phone, but Jean had already hung up. There was no answer except for the


    beeping noises from the phone line. That night, Winnie was unable to sleep.


    She kept tossing and turning in the bed as she thought about the present Jean mentioned.


    Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.


    What is it? This little b*tch is harder to deal with than her father. Does she know something? Winnie


    grew more anxious as she thought. She felt thirsty in the middle of the night and went to the kitchen to


    get a ss of water.


    However, she had just stepped out of her room when she saw Sam bring home a woman. The woman


    was gorgeous and had an alluring figure. Furthermore, she was young, about Gigi’s age.


    The woman leaned coyly against Sam’s chest and pretended to be afraid as soon as she noticed


    Winnie. “Sam, your wife is staring at me. I’m scared.”


    “Ignore her. She cheated on me. Why can’t I do the same?”


    Sam waved his hand and led the woman into his room.


    He shut the door firmly, making Winnie feel as if she had been chased out.


    The ss slipped from her hands and shattered on the floor. Is this the present Jean talked about?


    Winnie nearly fainted from fury.


    The following morning, Sam behaved as if nothing had happened.


    Winnie wanted to exin the matter to him and readied her emotions. Most men are not like Gary, who


    continued to be loyal to his dead wife for many years.


    So why does it matter that Sam keeps a lover?


    I can bear with it as long as she doesn’t appear before me.


    However, before she could say anything, Sam’s phone lit up with a notification. It was her habit to look


    at it. This time, she grabbed the phone and was horrified to find many notifications of credit card usage.


    Within a short period, the woman maxed out the limit of the supplementary credit card.


    Winnie was shocked. “Sam, you gave the card to her? How can you do this to me?”


    She could not think of anything else to say as her tears dripped onto the table.


    Sam was flipping through the morning papers and remained unconcerned. “I won’t being home


    tonight.”


    He left the Reece Residence right after that.


    Winnie waspletely stumped. She never expected things to turn out like this within a few months of


    her marrying into a wealthy family.


    Meanwhile, Gigi nced at Winnie from the other end of the table and said, “There is no need to feel


    so sad. My father knew that woman even before you showed up. In other words, you are the mistress


    here.”


    Winnie was left speechless by Sam and Gigi’s cruelty.


    After Gigi left the house, Winnie immediately called Jean and scolded, “Didn’t you agree to give me


    more time to pay? How can you break your promise? Don’t expect to get even a single cent from me.


    You have ruined everything, and I don’t care anymore.”


    “Is that so?”


    Winnie wanted to say something, but what Jean said next destroyed all her hope.


    “So, you don’t care even if I send Sam photos of you being intimate with other men?”


    “No!”


    Winnie felt as if someone had choked her. Her face turned pale from panic.


    She had no idea how much dirt Jean had of her. Thus, she could only grit her teeth and say, “You want


    money, right? I’ll pay you.”


    “You still owe me ten million. You have two days left to pay me.”


    Jean could imagine how furious Winnie would look right now.


    Thus, she hung up and was in a good mood.


    Even if Winnie doesn’t have that much money, she will now do everything she can to borrow them.


    Then, she opened the address book on her phone and found Quinn Snow’s phone number.


    Quinn was Sam’s lover.


    Moreover, Quinn was also a friend Jean made in prison. It was by ident that Jean found out about


    Quinn’s rtionship with Sam. She never expected such a coincidence.


    Quinn had long nned to dump Sam, but Jean asked for her favor to remain with Sam a little longer.


    Then, Jean transferred one hundred thousand from her card to Quinn and soon received a reply from


    her. “Happy cooperation.”


    Furthermore, Quinn also sent a few photos she took after sneaking into Sam’s studyst night. They


    showed an auction document.


    A fewpanies werepeting fornd west of Yorktown.


    Coincidentally, Royden Group was nning to enter the real estate market.


    Jean looked at those photos and smirked. Then, she sent Quinn another message before putting down


    her phone to look at the window.


    “Winter ising.”


    Winter shall soone to Royden Group.


    Meanwhile, Edgar walked along thepany’s corridor with Miles. He noticed the employees looking


    at him differently from usual.


    Although they appeared respectful, Edgar sensed something else in their gazes.


    Miles exined frankly, “Mr. Royden, I have dealt with all the articles the reporters wrote on that


    matter.”


    Since dawn, anonymous users posted criticisms about Edgar’s private life on the Web. Most of them


    said he was seeing Jean again and abandoned his pregnant wife.


    Everyone now regarded him as a scoundrel.


    Miles only needed to make a few phone calls to shut up all the reporters and end the matter before it


    could be published.


    Unfortunately, he could not stop business partners from hearing about it.


    They heard rumors in one form or the other. Although they could not be sure that it was true, they did


    not bother to check either.


    Therefore, Royden Group’s reputation suffered a severe blow overnight.


    The employees who heard the rumors were curious. Who does Edgar love? Could it be that he wants


    both women?


    Miles whispered, “I’ve sent staff to exin to our business partners.”


    Based on his many years of observation, Miles could see that Edgar was on the verge of losing his


    temper. His expression had darkened intimidatingly, and his eyes were too scary to look at.


    After the elevator door closed, Edgar clenched his right fist so tightly that his knuckles cracked.


    “Keep a close watch on Jean. Don’t let her out of sight even for a second.”


    Is she nning to ruin my life?


    Edgar’s gaze turned threatening. I can easily get rid of her if I wish to.


    But why haven’t I done anything?


    It was a question even Edgar did not have the answer to.
