Chapter 428


    Jean spoke her confession with great heartbreak.


    After finishing speaking, she walked into the cold wind without looking back.She was not afraid of the


    cold, but she was afraid of having second thoughts.


    For her, Edgar should have disappeared from her life long ago.


    But the contact during this period made her unstable.


    When the phone buzzed, she nced at the name of the caller.


    She opened the door of the taxi and got in.


    The man was still standing on the steps, looking at her from a distance.


    "Drive fast."


    Herwyer''s voice came on the other line, "Ms.Eyer, the investigation of the case has been terminated"


    Jean frowned, "Howe?"


    The matter has not been investigated clearly, and there was no witness or material evidence.


    How was it solved? "La Taylor deres that she will not hold anyone ountable and has already


    terminated the contract with JD Company.She will also withdraw from this designpetition."


    Jean''s heart sank.


    "Mister, I need to head to the hospital."


    When Jean walked into the ward, La Taylor''s family was already helping her pack her things.Her


    mother was still tearfully distressed over her daughter''s injuries.


    La Taylor had a cold face, like her expression during thepetition.


    Jean knocked on the door.


    La red at her defensively.


    La roared, "What are you doing here! I''m not going to hold anyone ountable anymore.You''re off


    the case.Leave me"


    "La, is this your friend? Don''t be so rude to others."


    "She''s not my friend!"


    La spoke coldly, "Get out, I don''t want to see you."


    She had this reaction, and Jean was already mentally prepared.She walked in immediately and put the


    fruit aside, "Madam, can I have a chat with her alone?"


    La''s mother sighed and nodded.


    As the door closed, La sneered, "Don''t think you can see my jokes if youe here now.It''s my own


    choice to quit this business, and it has nothing to do with anyone.Don''t think you can change me!"


    "What about Sean?"


    La was startled; her hands clenched her fingertips tightly.Her emotions began to well up.


    Jean continued, as if she didn''t see through her mind, "JD wanted to sign a contract with me, but I


    declined"


    The woman exined, "I didn''t want to be like you.I''ve seen the design works you''ve coborated


    with over the past few years, and every one of them are not Sean''s design"


    In other words, among JD''s designers, the most influential person in this room was La.


    However, under the banner of Sean Regan, the officials attribute all the credit to Sean Regan.


    "How could you..."


    La nced suspiciously at her immediately and then looked at the door vigntly, "You invited


    someone along, but you still started the recording apparatus! I''ll be honest with you, I know nothing"


    Seeing her nervous appearance, Jean sighed, "I''m not as despicable as them.You want to quit


    because of Sean, correct?"


    La''s eyes darkened.


    Tears rolled down his cheeks.


    "It doesn''t matter if I am stronger than him.The capital behind him is too strong.I can''tpare to him.If


    you want to go on in this journey, talent alone is useless."


    La sounded like she was in pain.


    Jean hesitated for a long time, then said slowly, "What can I do for you?"


    "I don''t need you to pity me!"


    La gritted her teeth and turned away.


    When Jean realized her fighting spirit, she reassured, "You are extremely gifted and intelligent.Even if


    you don''t pursue a career in design, you will excel in any field you choose."


    La was undone by those words.She sobbed and cried while sitting on the hospital bed with her face


    covered.


    Jean left gently after quietly getting up.


    Paparazzi soon hounded them as she left the hospital gates.


    "Ms.Eyer, I heard that La Taylor has withdrawn from thepetition, what do you think about this


    matter?"


    "What happened at that time, La Taylor refused to say, do you know the inside story?"


    "The rtionship between you doesn''t seem to be very good.There was a dispute on the show.You


    came to see her now.Is it hype or gloating?"


    Looking at the microphones piled up in front of him, Jean suddenly sneered.


    A sharp-eyed reporter immediately pointed the camera at her face.


    Jean raised an eyebrow.She made a cold expression.


    "I''ll retire too."


    Under the surprised eyes of the reporters, she walked down the steps.


    After the encounter, she had the notion that there was nothing to do but y along in a sinister game


    that was being controlled.


    If she was urate in her prediction, JD and LKD would continue to coborate, and the design


    draught she created will finally be published under Sean''s name.


    These contest''s winners will be Edna Jadot and Sadie Shephard.


    As for Sadie Shephard''s invitation to sign a contract with JD, it was nothing more than to abandon


    La Taylor and let her continue to be Sean Regan''s stand-in.


    What foul y.


    Of course, she was unable to help La Taylor turn over, but at least she can avoid participating in


    those plots.


    When the news got out, Edgar sat in the car.


    The man frowned, "She still knows."


    Miles sat in the passenger seat and replied in a low voice, "Now the police station has officially ended


    the investigation, and all the evidence collected has also been sealed"


    Because the victim took it all on herself.


    So, this matter was over.


    "It''s just that Ms.Eyer''s retirement now should push the matter to another uncontroble direction"

    The man sneered.


    Although he spected that she would do so, he didn''t anticipate that she would.


    "Miles, contact the police department again.I want to know who else is paying attention to this case."


    Was it his carelessness, the LKD-JD involvement, or his second uncle''s affair?


    "Yes, Mr.Royden."


    Miles immediately wrote down the matter in the memo, but then he raised his head.


    "The investment department is already calcting the loss this time, and the two yers retired one


    after another.Proceeds from the showpetition will also be affected.Mr.Carson''s studio has issued a


    statement saying thepetition will continue."


    They were also worried that the Royden Corporation would withdraw their capital.


    "No problem"


    Miles was surprised and unsure of what his president had meant.


    Given the intensity of thepetition right now, all the money spent will be lost.


    Although the expenditure was minor, it was still a loss.


    For Edgar, the loss had another effect.


    "Go to the hotel."


    "Alright."


    As soon as Edgar walked into the hotel gate, a manager greeted him, "Mr.Royden, Mr.and


    Mrs.Summer are still in the room and have not received any guests."


    Edgar hummed and went straight into the elevator.


    A few minutester, Bernard Summer received him in the room.


    "You came alone?"


    "It''s just a small business discussion with Mr.Summer.Your daughter doesn''t need to be present"
