Chapter 389


    Chapter 389 Live for Yourself


    Rachel received the message and immediately informed Jean about how Edgar’s side reacted. At this


    moment, Jean was resting on the couch in Royden’s family vi’s living room, reading thetest jewelry


    magazine. As soon as she read the message from Rachel, the tension on her brow gradually


    disappeared.


    Furthermore, her lips slowly curved into a vague smile. From a distance, it looked like a peaceful


    scene. One would see ady in loungewear sitting quietly, giving off the impression of being gentle and


    rxed.


    The maid stood at the kitchen door and secretly observed Jean before reporting to Miles. ‘Ms. Eyer


    seems to bemunicating with someone. She looks happy.’


    After sending the message, the maid put down her phone and continued to prepare dinner.


    Unbeknownst to her, Edgar was bursting with fury when he received the update. However, he had no


    choice but to swallow his anger and go to bed early to prepare for the uing business meeting.


    He resolved to force Jean to reveal all he wanted to know once he returned.


    Meanwhile, Jean replied to Rachel’s message and put down the magazine. She stood up and walked


    around before calling Ben’s number. “Regarding the proposal to invest in a designpany, I want to


    give it a try.”


    Previously, she could not find something she wanted to strive for. Now, Eyer Group was finally on the


    right track. Although its influence was still small, as long as it progressed steadily, it should be able to


    establish itself in the investment field firmly.


    As for Jean, she could finally make ns for her life.


    She had always dreamed of doing jewelry design. No matter how busy she was, she always


    remembered to practice design drawing. She frequently made simple sketches to record her inspiration


    and ideas.


    That habit also became an outlet for her to release stress.


    Meanwhile, Ben considered briefly on the other end before saying, “I’ll talk to an expert about it. Let’s


    arrange a time to meet and discuss this.”


    “Sure, Mr. Ludwig.”


    Jean perked up as soon as they discussed the matter.


    “But will you be able to leave?” Ben’s voice turned solemn.


    He knew Edgar confined Jean in his house and wondered what she would do now that Edgar was


    overseas.


    Although Ben was furious with Edgar’s actions, he knew the present situation was unclear, and


    someone was the mastermind behind all this in secret. Thus, Ben understood Edgar kept her in


    Royden’s family vi to keep her safe.


    Otherwise, she would be in danger not only from the secret mastermind but also Sam.


    “Of course. It’s only a minor problem. That’s easy peasy,” Jean said casually and seemed rxed as


    she walked back to her room. She even hummed a tune.


    The maid immediately messaged Miles. ‘Ms. Eyer is in an even better mood after chatting with her


    friend.’


    Miles broke out in cold sweat upon seeing the message.


    The following morning, Edgar asked about the progress in his home country as soon as he saw Miles.


    Miles understood him well and knew he was not asking about the domestic market situation or Royden


    Group. All he cared about and wanted to hear was Jean.


    However…


    Miles was anxious but did not dare to show it on his face. He had no choice but to say, “Mr. Royden, it’s


    almost time for the meeting.”


    He needed to dy informing Edgar as long as possible.


    It would be best if he could find an excuse tofort his boss.


    Otherwise, Miles, the person closest to Edgar, would be the first to suffer his wrath if he lost his temper.


    At this moment, Jean finished breakfast and expressed her craving for a strawberry cake. She even


    specified that the cake must be from a reputable shop north of a public park.


    The maid had no choice but to rush out to buy it.


    Before another maid arrived to take her position, Jean yawned and returned to her room on the second


    floor.


    She closed the door and took out the clothes she had prepared before walking out of the side door.


    Then, she sneaked into the vacant neighboring vi’s yard and walked out of it quietly.


    The bodyguards were still patrolling the vi’s front yard. They received orders from Miles to keep their


    distance from Jean unless there was any incident.


    It was to prevent strong resistance from Jean.


    However, that also made it easy for her to escape.


    Jean hailed a taxi and rushed to the restaurant Ben told her about.


    When she arrived, she saw Ben chatting with someone.


    Judging from the person’s back, Jean could see that the person was a sophisticateddy.


    “Ben.”


    Jean approached them.


    Ben and thedy turned to her at the same time. Then, Ben waved his hand and called, “Jean, over


    here.”


    Thedy opposite him smiled and said kindly, “It seems there’s some truth to the rumors. Mr. Ludwig,


    you care very much about Ms. Eyer.”


    She took a sip of coffee after saying that.


    Ben’s smile became more apparent. He cared about Jean tremendously. After so many years, taking


    care of her had be an instinct.


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    He ceased to care what anyone thought or said about it.


    Jean looked at Ben, waiting for him to introduce them.


    Ben knew what Jean wanted and said, “Jean, this is Edna Jadot. She is the newly appointed editor-in-


    chief for La Laux fashion magazine. She has just returned from overseas and desires to create a name


    for herself here. Coincidentally, she is looking to coborate with an experienced designer.”


    After learning thedy’s name, Jean smiled and offered her hand. “Ms. Jadot, I’ve heard of your


    outstanding achievements.”


    “You’ve heard of me?” Edna was surprised but did not forget to shake the hand Jean offered.


    “Everyone in the design industry knows of your work, Ms. Jadot. Your Roaring mes and White


    Nights are disyed overseas in an elite art academy’s exhibition hall. I’ve seen your interview on TV.


    It’s an honor to meet you today finally.”


    “You’re too kind, Ms. Eyer. I’ve heard about your work in MON & Co. By the way, I’ve known Monica


    Weller for a long time.”


    Since the twodies had experience in design and had simr tastes and interests, they soon became


    engrossed in their conversation.


    On the other hand, Ben could not keep up with their conversation and could only help them refill their


    cups.


    However, he was happy to see the vitality in Jean’s eyes. It had been a long time since she could live


    for herself.
