Edgar and His Destined Wife

Edgar And His Destined Wife Chapter 417

Others may not notice, but Sadie knew that the best part of the fashion show was the jewelry the models wore.

They not only perfectly interpreted the theme but enhanced the model’s beauty.

And Jean was responsible for said jewelry.

That was likely why Sean was unusually kind to her.

However, Layla, who had been with Sean for a long time, wrongly thought Sean would be useless without her.

Those blind to their situation would eventually be kicked out of the industry.

Jean watched the models nervously from below the stage.

Once the final model finished her catwalk, Jean could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Sean gave her a bottle of water.

“You worked hard.”

“Thank you, you too.”

Jean did not think much about it.

Sean’s expression seemed kinder than before.He and Jean appeared close to each other on the camera.

Their smiles were firmly imprinted into the audience’s mind.

The production crew did not even have to hype up the scene.

There were many comments on the Web, hoping the production crew would switch to filming romance variety

shows.

Many even commented that Sean was pursuing Jean.

With Sean’s talent and Jean’s beauty, the audience became interested in their scenes.

Kalel clapped his hands and praised Jean and Sean’s work.

“Wonderful! Perfect!”

Jean was glad to hear such praise from him.

Then, Kalel turned to her.

“Are you responsible for the model’s accessories?”

He did not react when the models from other groups walked on stage.

Now that he spoke, all gazes, whether wishful or envious, fell on Jean.

However, Layla answered before Jean could say anything, “Mr.Cordova, the three of us worked on it together.Jean

is still new, so I hope you can forgive her mistake”

Mistake? What mistake? The other contestants were trying to figure out what the words meant.

They wondered if Layla implied Jean’s part was flawed.

“That’s right.She was accused of plagiarism, and likely doesn’t have much talent”

“She is riding on Sean’s coattails to win’ Layla smirked and was confident that no one would suspect her words due

to her reputation in the industry.

Kalel nodded.

“It’s good enough that a newcomer can do this well.”

However, as he glanced at Sean, his gaze seemed to hint at something.

Sean frowned and looked down.

Then, the judges finalized their assessment, and the two lowest-ranking groups were eliminated from the

competition.

Meanwhile, Edgar’s expression remained stern.

He left before the filming ended.

As everyone expected, Sean’s group obtained the highest score.

When the contestants returned to their rooms, many looked at Jean with hostility.

“Someone is so lucky to have attained such a good spot.She advanced to the next round without doing anything.”

“Who knows? Maybe she bribed the judges? Hmph.”

Jean frowned and looked at Layla walking before her.

Layla sensed her stare and suddenly paused her step.

“What? Do you have something against me?”

“You were lying just now”

Jean did not mince her words.

The contestants nearby all paused to watch them.

Layla laughed.

“Do you have proof? Is there anyone who will testify for you?”

She was talking about Sean.

Layla and Sean worked in the same company and had worked together for a long time.

She knew he would never help someone else.

With that in mind, Layla glanced at Sean, who remained silent.

“You heard her.She is only a newcomer and is already disrespecting her senior.If she joins the company, won’t she

trample on you?”

Jean narrowed her eyes upon hearing Layla’s nonsense.She pointed above her.

“All the workrooms and bedrooms are set up with cameras.They recorded who did work and who slacked off the

whole afternoon.”

They were in a reality show, after all.The filming crew panicked upon seeing the scene.

“Why are they fighting?”

The assistant director appeared worried.

“Director Linton, should we send someone to warn them?”

“It’s not an issue.We need some drama to make the show popular”

“But…”

The assistant director hesitated before whispering, “Jean is Edgar Royden’s ex-wife, and Layla is from Jolie Design

Company”

Both ladies had prominent backgrounds.

The director was stunned.He recalled seeing Edgar’s expression when he left just now and hesitated.

“Let’s observe the situation first.Jean’s words angered Layla, prompting her to raise her voice.

“What do you mean? Are you accusing me of not contributing anything? Are you saying you are the reason we

obtained a high score tonight?”

Her words were full of mockery.

Then, Layla turned to the two nearest contestants.

“Why don’t you ask whether they believe your words or mine?”

Jean had been accused of plagiarism and was a newcomer in fashion design.No one would side with her.

But Jean looked at Layla calmly.

“I know there are many unscrupulous people in this industry.However, I did not expect someone to lie blatantly

without conscience”

“You…Layla wanted to argue, but Sean stopped her.

“That’s enough.Don’t cause a scene.”

His words were directed at Layla.

“Why are you stopping me?”

Layla widened her eyes in shock.How dare he side with Jean? Previously, it was unclear who was telling the truth.

But hearing what Sean said, it seemed like Layla was bullying a newcomer.

Jean frowned.She did not wish to attract attention, but she could not remain silent in the face of bullying.

“Layla, I never wished to be in the same group as you.Don’t mess with me”

Jean headed to the workroom right after saying that.

The other contestants were shocked.

“Wow, she dared to speak like that.Layla is quite influential in the design industry.Now, their group won’t get

along.It’s going to be interesting.”

After Jean left, Layla growled and wrenched her hand from Sean before storming to her room.

Everyone else soon left.

Only Sean remained standing on his spot, staring in the direction Jean went for a long time.

It was late at night when Jean’s phone beeped with a message from Sean.

‘Layla was in a bad mood today.She’s not usually like this.I apologize on her behalf? Jean glanced at the message

and turned it off straight away.

The following morning, Jean heard someone knocking on the door just after she woke up.She went to it and found

Sean holding breakfast in his hands.

“Did I wake you?”

He smiled kindly and seemed like a caring person.

“I brought oatmeal and sandwiches.Is there anything else you would like to have? I’ll get them for you”

“You don’t have to do this.”

Jean looked at him.

Sean froze briefly before explaining, “We are in the same group, so a fight will not benefit anyone.

Furthermore, you will be working in this industry in the future.

You will be seeing her again.”

Is this advice? Or is it another form of threat? Jean frowned slightly.

“Will you also say this to Layla?”

Sean was stunned briefly before whispering, “This is a reality show.The cameras…

“Huh? What did you say? I couldn’t hear”
