Chapter 73 The Situation Is Under Jean’s Control
The word ex-husband was really harsh. Jean tried to ignore them, but she could no longer endure their sarcasm. Gigi became more arrogant when more and more people started to gossip about Jean, “For Anna’s sake, I will forgive you this time as long as…”
“Do you want me to kneel and apologize to you, or do you want me to be your assistant for a week and do everything as you said?”
Gigi frowned. So what if you were once the daughter of the Eyer family?
Jean has no choice but to bow before me. No one is going to support her. “Anything will do. I’m an easygoing person.” Gigi smiled coquettishly. “You shouldn’t have talked back at me in the banquet hall just now. Why are you asking for trouble?”
Those who stood by Jean’s side despised Gigi. In this industry, you can have everything if you have the inside track. But if you don’t…
Jean’s mouth tilted slightly while walking toward Gigi. She raised her hand and pressed on Gigi’s shoulder, “I was wearing a dress, so it wasn’t convenient for me to lay a finger on you just now. After all, you will get hurt if I hit you.”
Gigi was startled. She stepped back subconsciously. She was pregnant. What Jean did to her in the bathroom that day flashed through her mind. Jean chuckled, “It’s too late to be scared.”
Gigi was so frightened that she went weak at the knees. Some people went forward to hold her. “Jean, don’t go too far. Miss Reece is pregnant!”
“That’s right. You and Mr. Royden had gone separate ways. You shouldn’t be staring at Gigi like this.” Gigi hid and sneered in the crowd. Jean rubbed her ears impatiently, “Is that all you have to say? This is my room. Please get out.”
“We have taken a step back. Stop acting so ignorant.” Anna grabbed Jean. “Although Gigi is not popular, she is still a celebrity. You are just an intern, how dare you talk back at her?”
Jean blinked helplessly.
She took out her mobile phone, called someone and said, “Send it.”
Jean said only two words.
Anna urged Jean, “Hurry up and apologize to Gigi. Otherwise, no one will support you when you return to the company.”
Jean smiled. “Wait.”
“Wait for what?” Anna was curious.
After a few seconds, Linda’s cell phone rang.
She answered the phone, then looked at Jean in shock. “Okay, I understand. I’ll deal with it immediately.”
“Okay guys, it’s a private affair between them. Everyone, please leave and have a good rest.”
Linda winked at Gigi, hinting at her to leave Jean alone.
Linda held Gigi’s wrist and said, “Jean got some photos of you before your debut. It might cause a great upheaval on your image. She even sent your photos to your company’s email and asked for a five hundred thousand hush money.”
“What?”
Gigi stared murderously at Jean. “What is she thinking?!”
“Have a look at this.”
Linda handed her mobile phone to Gigi, then drove all of MON & Co.’s staff away, leaving only Gigi and Jean in the room.
Jean leaned back and sat on the sofa, “I didn’t plan to confront you so quickly. Since you kept provoking me, don’t blame me for going after you.”
“I still have a lot of interesting photos of you. Although you are not famous, your fiancé is Edgar. If his business partners discover that his fiancé was living a chaotic lifestyle…”
Gigi’s hands were trembling.
I thought I’d paid someone to remove all those photos!
Gigi looked at Jean embarrassingly. “Jean, I’ll give you the five hundred thousand. I’ll transfer it to you now, so you must delete all the photos you have of me.”
“Is this the attitude you show when pleading for help?”
Jean took out her mobile phone and started to record.
Gigi walked over nervously.
“Smile.”
Gigi grinned.
“Too ugly. Try again.”
Gigi almost cried, but Jean still made her sing and dance.
She would continuously remind Gigi to smile.
“How can you be an actress with such acting skills?”
“Look into the camera. I’m still recording.”
Jean’s impatient voice could be heard from the room from time to time.
Linda was listening nervously outside the room. After a while, Edgar and Miles came out of the elevator. Linda quickly ran over, “Mr. Royden, please go and have a look. Jean is bullying Gigi again. She locked Gigi inside, and I don’t know what’s going on now!”
Edgar frowned, “What about Jean?”
“She’s inside too.” Linda reiterated what happened just now. She purposely omitted the fact that Gigi brought a large group of people while entering Jean’s room.
She spread false information about Jean to Edgar.
“I’m really worried, but I don’t dare to ask for help. After all, it’s a private affair between the three of you. I’m afraid that Gigi’s future career would be affected if I make this a bigger deal than it is.”
Miles couldn’t stand Linda, so she interrupted. “Mr. Royden, please let me knock on the door first.”
Edgar didn’t stop Miles.
‘Bang, bang’.
Jean frowned. They’re late. My phone is about to run out of battery.
“Who’s that?”
“Miss Eyer, it’s me, Miles.”
Gigi smiled and cried at the same time. Jean rolled her eyes at Gigi and said softly, “You must be thinking that your Prince Charming has come to save you.”
Gigi chocked.
She dared not answer.
If I say something wrong, Jean would definitely torment me again. I’m so tired, and my ankles are starting to ache.
“Maybe Edgar is looking for me. I’d better go out for a while so that he won’t get suspicious and think that you are bullying me.”
