Edgar and His Destined Wife

Edgar And His Destined Wife Chapter 443

The reception was held at the rooftop bar of Majesty Hotel.

The skyscrapers looked stunning under the starry skies.

Sherry wore a bespoke long dress, looking elegant and arrogant like a peacock.Her flamboyance dazzled all the

guests.

“The Summer family is going to hog tonight’s limelight.I heard that their recent scandal had been quelled.Edgar will

also be present tonight.Perhaps he’s going to clarify his relationship with the Summer family.”

“I can’t believe the Reece family and Edgar’s ex-wife lost it to the daughter of Summer family.”

“Mr.Royden has made a smart move.The Royden family is in crisis.He will have a leg-up with Pinnacle Group if he

marries Sherry, the Summer family’s daughter.After this, nobody will have the audacity to contend against Royden

Group.”

Edgar’s decision to marry Sherry might seem like a perfect decision to the public.

Edgar was ushered in by envious gazes as he entered the hotel lobby.

Two influential and leading organizations would join forces tonight.It was an honor to be able to witness such a

memorable moment.

“He’s here! He’s here!”

“Mr.Royden is on his way here.”

Sherry put down her champagne and gracefully waited for Edgar when she was informed of his arrival.

When Edgar emerged from the elevator, she quickly put on her demure and delicate fagade and walked up to the

man.She uttered softly, “Thank you for coming.”

Immediately, the media who were present at the reception rushed up and captured their photos.

Edgar and Sherry stood side by side, looking at each other.

They looked great as a couple.

The way Sherry looked at Edgar was exceptionally loving and tender.

Their photos together would undoubtedly make tomorrow’s news a highlight.

The reporters were busy taking their photos.

Meanwhile, Edgar shifted his gaze away from Sherry and said nonchalantly, “Please don’t overthink,

Ms.Summer.This is just a partnership.”

Edgar’s words caught Sherry off guard.But due to her image and the circumstance, she took the initiative to hold

his arm.

“My parents have been waiting for you for a long time.Let’s go in”

She attempted to alleviate the awkwardness between them with intimacy.

People with keen eyes would be able to tell that Edgar had no feelings for her.So, what? Sherry didn’t care as long

as she could become Mrs.Royden.

Sherry thought she had everything in control.

She ambled gracefully, deliberately leaning towards the man, and whispered to him, “Jean will be here with

Mr.Mason tonight.I believe Mr.Royden will assume your role with great effort tonight”

As expected, Edgar was startled.He looked sullen and threatened, “Do you have any idea about the jail sentence for

abetting illegal immigration?”

“How would I know about that?”

Sherry feigned an innocent look, “She is alive and well right now.There is no evidence to prove that I am the

abettor, no? Because that time, I was lying in the room downstairs and being abused by you”

She looked at Edgar and straightened his collar with a smile on her face, “I know you love Jean, and you are willing

to do anything for her.I believe you’re here to dump me.After that, you’ll pursue her again.”

She smiled indifferently, “You won’t be able to do that to me because I’m not a fool like Gigi”

“Sherry, Mr.Royden, come over and sit here.”

Mrs.Summer hollered them.

The two turned and looked at Mrs.Summer inadvertently.

The man bore a cold face, and the woman wore a wry smile.

“Why are you looking so gloomy? Do you think she will come and crash our reception and elope with you? I am a

woman too.I’ll never forgive you If I knew you were having sex with another woman when I was in danger.So, wait

and see.Jean will be here to give you the final blow.”

As soon as Sherry finished speaking, murmurs were heard from the crowd.

Edgar darted a glance across the venue and saw Jean come with Hugo.

They looked relaxed and beautiful together.

Everyone’s eyes were on them because they were wearing matching couple outfits.

Some guests wondered why Jean and Hugo came to the reception together.

“Is she trying to contend with Sherry Summer?”

“What’s the point? Didn’t she and Edgar already divorce?”

“Wait.Are they here to crash the wedding reception?”

Eventually, the speculations and discussions abated.

Nobody dared to offend Pinnacle Group and Royden Group due to their influence and prestige in the marketplace.

Unless the person wished to be trounced of a promising career in the commerce and finance sector.

Suddenly, there was a babel of voices unfurling among the guests.

Sherry smirked, “As you can see, her relationship with Hugo…”

Edgar walked up to Sherry’s parents before she could finish her sentence.He retracted his arm from Sherry’s arms.

“Thank God it’s not crowded here.”

Hugo looked around and deliberately matched Jean’s pace.

After all, it was a hassle for her to move around in a long dress.

Sherry was staring at them from across the bar.

After that, she sent a message on her phone.

Soon, a female model with a sexy body walked up to them.She clung to Hugo’s arm, “Hi.Can you do me a favor?

I’ve accidentally left my clothes in the room downstairs”

She flashed her room card to him and wanted to slide it into his pocket.

As she spoke, she batted a seductive wink at Hugo, “Could you please help me, sir?”

It would be absurd for any man to resist such a beautiful woman’s invitation.

However, Hugo dodged her advances.

Then, he darted a warning gaze at the model.

“I’m busy”

He didn’t hesitate to reject her.

The model froze in abashment, “Perhaps you didn’t understand my meaning.I mean, I’m alone…”

“I heard you loud and clear, but I’m not interested in you” Hugo said lightly, but his expression was cold and aloof.

Then, he turned and said to Jean, “Let’s go in and away from those harassers””

He was committed to protecting Jean from harm and disturbances tonight.

After all, a drama was about to happen soon, and he didn’t want to miss the fun.

“You…”

The model pouted, scowled, and walked away.

Jean whispered to Hugo, “You can go with that woman if you want to.I can take care of myself.Hugo and Jean had

come to an agreement beforehand, as she had expected an incident like this to happen before coming to this

place.

To her surprise, Hugo flicked her forehead fiercely.

Jean glowered, “Why did you hit me?”

“Please get your head straight.That’s their gimmick trying to steer me away from you.How can you be left alone

here?”
