Chapter 229 How the Mighty Has Fallen

Heather’s brows knitted together, and she explained, “Ms. Eyer, it was Mr. Royden who asked us to interview you. I can’t help you if you do not cooperate.”

Jean continued to not show any response. At this moment, Miles frowned slightly and was about to go forward when Jean slowly turned her head back and saw Heather’s outstretched hand. A look of surprise flashed through her eyes.

“Sorry, I lost my hearing. I can’t hear anything.” She smiled apologetically. Heather was stunned. Jean continued to smile calmly and said, “I’ll do the interview, but could you please write the questions down.” Heather looked at Miles, and when he nodded, she replied, “I understand, let me go get it ready.”

She had not known that this was the extent of Jean’s condition. Very soon after, they started the interview. The questions Heather asked were all that had been pre-approved, and Jean answered them naturally.

“Mr. Royden is the head of Royden Group; he only cares about my condition because it was related to the company’s truck…”

Miles let out a sigh of relief. He was relieved that Jean was sticking to the script. His phone rang, and he left the room to take it. When he came in five minutes later, the atmosphere in the room had changed.

“Was it my fault? Ms. Shanty, you have to tell the world the truth. Otherwise, I don’t think I can live in this world anymore.” Jean said in a quiet voice while wiping at tears.

Miles was dumbfounded.

What did she say? That wasn’t in the script!

Heather also had tears in her eyes as she clutched Jean’s hands tightly. Her face was full of concern as she incessantly nodded her head. Soon after, she left with the photographer.

Miles could feel that things weren’t right. He quickly went over and asked, “Ms. Shanty, are you done with the interview already?”

They still had a few questions left in the script.

“I don’t see the need to continue. Mr. Miller, please let Mr. Royden know that even though we had an understanding, I am still a reporter, and I must let the world know the truth! I’ll let you know though; I hope Mr. Royden will settle things fairly with Ms. Eyer as soon as possible.” Heather said with fervor.

Miles was shell shocked.

What happened in the short time I was away?

Miles immediately took his phone out and reported, “Mr. Royden, something happened at the interview.”

By the time Edgar made his way back to the hospital, the article had already been published on the Internet. His face hardened as he glanced through the article. He made his way to Jean’s room angrily.

“Mr. Royden!” Miles stood up abruptly.

Jean was lost to the world as she sunbathed on the sofa. She was suddenly roughly pulled up by someone. A look of panic came across her pale face before she composed herself and let out a cool smile.

“You don’t look too good, Mr. Royden. Did something happen at the company?”

“You crazy b*tch!” Edgar tightened his grip on her neck and said slowly, “I told you; do not scheme against me.”

How dare she tell the reporter that! Can she not bear to be away from Ben Ludwig? I would never let her leave!

Jean shook her head and quietly reminded him, “Don’t be too angry or agitated. I can’t hear you anyways.”

She delighted in his furious expression.

Since he wanted others to misunderstand their relationship, she would try her best to ruin his plans. To do that, all she had to do was cry and say a couple of ambiguous statements to Ms. Shanty. It was all the truth, but she couldn

‘t control what other people thought of it.

For example, she said that; she had lost a child, ruined both of Edgar’s wedding ceremonies, and gone to his villa multiple times.

“Edgar, I called you so many times. How come you didn’t pick up?” She asked but stood stunned when she saw the scene before her. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

She would have to be an idiot to not know what had gone on in this dimly lit room with clothes strewn over the floor!

“You!” Gigi was filled with anger. She stomped forward, having in mind to slap Jean but was stopped by Edgar.

“Let’s talk outside.”

“What is there to talk about? You are the president of Royden Group. I was fine with you protecting her because the accident was related to Royden Group. But now, can you still say that you’re innocent?” Gigi screeched.

Jean looked at them silently because she couldn’t hear anything.

I think I heard something when Gigi was speaking just now.

In the end, Edgar dragged Gigi out of the room, and the hospital room became quiet again.

Jean slowly got out of bed and went to open the window to breathe some fresh air, but before she could reach her hand out, she felt someone hit the back of her head with something.

She collapsed forward, and her forehead crashed on the windowpane.

By the afternoon, the news of Jean being attacked in her hospital room had spread among the upper circle. Some had even said that Gigi had hired someone to hit her because she was mad at Jean for seducing Edgar. Some even said that she was nude when they carried her out of the room.

“How did the lady of the Eyer family fall to such disgrace?”

The guests in Edbert Royden’s house were furious.

“Edbert, I don’t care about what you advise us this time, I need to help Gary’s daughter!”
