Chapter 374


    Chapter 374 Loathing


    “You treated her like your biological daughter and raised her for so many years.” Who? Gigi leaned


    forward.


    Her dad’s voice sounded out. “I had no other way. I wanted her to marry into a rich family so that Reece


    Group could reach a higher level. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have taken the risk and bought her.” “Now that I


    think about it, I should have bought a different child.” Bought…


    Gigi felt cold all over. Her pupils slowly widened. Isn’t she the daughter of the Reece family? Who is


    this person that she has been calling dad for so many years?


    Gigi almost couldn’t restrain herself. She wanted to rush out and question them, but her legs were


    weak. She wanted to go out, but she didn’t have the nerve to move.


    If she asked about it and if they had a falling out, she would no longer be the daughter of this family.


    When the time came, how would her dad, no, how would Sam treat her?


    He had the nerve to send her to others while she was unconscious. If they had a fall out, she was


    afraid that her life would be in danger.


    Gigi bit the corners of her lips hard. She was terrified and didn’t dare make a sound.


    “I’ve instructed people to send things over. She knows that Gigi is her biological younger sister.” Edbert


    chuckled, and he raised his brows as he nced at the door that wasn’t shut tightly on the second


    floor.


    He could see it clearly from his perspective, but Sam was unaware.


    He didn’t n on revealing it, either.


    He continued talking about it. “It’s pretty good to have such a daughter. At least you have something to


    hope for.”


    Gigi stayed in her room, and her heart thumped loudly.


    Who are her biological parents? And who is Edbert referring to?


    Why doesn’t shee and acknowledge her if she knows that Gigi is her younger sister?


    Gigi’s eyes were filled with tears. It was as though her world hade crashing down at this moment.


    Right until she heard something that shocked her more.


    “If I knew, I would have taken away both the daughters of the Eyer family,” Sam said ruthlessly. “then I


    wouldn’t have to feel so apprehensive now. With two daughters, Edgar would have his eye on at least


    one of them.”


    Eyer family?


    How many Eyer families are there?

    Gigi stuffed an article of clothing into her mouth and tried not to shout out loud. Her life was already in


    pieces. Why did the heavens have to y such a cruel joke on her?


    The person she had called her father for the past twenty-something years was only… someone who


    had purchased her.


    It was no wonder that he had always made her get close to Edgar and instilled thoughts of marrying


    into a rich family.


    Everything was a conspiracy.


    She was the only one who was foolish and didn’t know anything.


    The worst part was that Jean already knew everything but didn’t look for her or reveal it to her at all.


    Gigi’s chest felt blocked and stuffy. She gritted her teeth. “I won’t let this go.”


    Edbert left Reece Residence after that.


    Sam didn’t know that there was someone who was already sitting in Edbert’s car waiting for him.


    Melody wore a ck hat that covered half her face. Her voice was hoarse. “You’re amazing. You can


    make Sam run around in circles with just a few words.”


    Edbert was slightly startled. His hand fell on her shoulder.


    In an instant, her body froze. She was rmed and wanted to lean backward and avoid it, but Edbert


    exerted pressure.


    “Really? I’m only considering the Reece family’s future, and he dly epted my suggestion.” As


    Edbert was speaking, his gaze darkened as he looked at Melody. “As for you, why did youe back


    when you had left the country?”


    When his subordinates had heard rumors, they ambushed Melody at the airport and brought her over.


    Otherwise, she would have most likely gone to see Edgar.


    “You know that I hate to be betrayed. If there’s such a hidden danger, I don’t mind being more vicious.”


    Edbert looked at her side profile in disdain. “You’ve always been very obedient.”


    Melody shivered all over. She forced out a smile with some difficulty as her fingers curled inward. She


    trembled as she exined, “You’ve misunderstood. I only came back to move my parents to a new


    graveyard, so I didn’t want to disturb you. I was going to leave when I was done.”


    Her voice grew softer the more she spoke. She was afraid that she would anger him.


    She didn’t know the extent of Edbert’s means. Even going to purgatory would be better than falling into


    the hands of this man.


    Melody coughed violently after that. “Mr. Edbert, I have to go back. I don’t have my medicine with me.”


    She pulled at Edbert’s sleeve in a pleading gesture.


    “Please, let me go. I beg you.”


    Edbert looked at her deeply. After a long time, he lifted his hand from her shoulder.


    “Let’s go,” he instructed the driver.


    Melody’s tightly bound nerves suddenly loosened.


    But before she could rxpletely, Edbert asked casually, “Are you close with Jean?”


    Melody’s pupils trembled violently. “We’re okay.”


    “That’s great. Help me do something.”


    …


    Two dayster, Eyer Grouppleted its prospects nning.


    Rachel received a text message from Jean early in the morning, instructing her to gather all the


    employees for a meeting at thepany.


    Once she got off the ne, she wanted to rush to Eyer Group at once.


    But there was a long queue in front of the airport. She couldn’t get a cab.


    A ck Maybach stopped in front of her. The windows rolled down, and Miles said, “Please get in the


    car, Ms. Sander. You’re on the way.”


    On the way?


    He was right. The Royden Group building was right in front of their office building.


    Rachel opened the car door and got in.


    As the car drove away, Hugo held Ellie’s hand as they walked out of the airport.


    Ellie looked up and said softly, “Daddy, why didn’t Jeane back with us? Ellie misses her. Ellie


    wants to y with her.”


    “Ellie, she has other things to do. Once she’s done, she wille and see you, Ellie.”


    Hugo smiled and stroked his daughter’s hair. “It won’t be too long.”


    His cell phone rang, and Hugo’s brows furrowed tightly when he nced at the caller ID.


    “Ellie, you miss Jean, right?”


    Ellie nodded furiously.


    “Daddy will take you to see her.”


    “Okay!”


    Ellie hugged Hugo of her own ord as she beamed.


    The man patted his daughter’s back lightly as he looked outside the window, and his expression


    darkened.


    Half an hourter, it was exceptionally lively on the ground floor of the Eyer Group building.


    Invited reporters had arrived, along with Edgar and Hugo’s cars.


    Rachel got out of Edgar’s car and thanked him before she ran in hastily.


    Miles immediately asked Edgar for further instructions. “Mr. Royden, are we returning to thepany?”


    He was almost expecting his boss to go in and look for Jean. Then maybe…


    “Yes.”


    Edgar’s face was cold. “Why did you act on your own?”


    Miles swallowed what he had wanted to say. He sighed and instructed the driver to turn back to


    Royden Group.


    Edgar had, of course, seen Hugo’s car.


    But he didn’t intend for the driver to stop.
