Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 514 Chapter 514 Since Edgar's business took off, he had never experienced such a cold treatment.

In the entire Eyer Residence, he was the only outsider.

When Susan saw him standing there in loneliness, she felt sorry for him.

"Mr.Royden, would you like to help out in the kitchen? Perhaps Ms.Eyer would forgive you." This was the best idea Susan had in her mind.

"It's fine." Edgar placed the contract on the top of the wine cellar and walked to them.

In front of the French window, Julia held Ellie in her arms while Hugo and Jean drank tea beside her.It was a blissful family picture.

Edgar was envious, yet he felt helpless.

Jean had noticed his gaze since the beginning, but she didn't understand why he chose to stay.

Miles could have sent the contract over, yet he chere on his own.

Thinking about his words before, Jean frowned.

Julia shot a look at them and brought Ellie to Jean.

"Ellie, do you like Jean?" Ellie nodded with a smile.

"Of course!" "Do you want to see her every day?" Ellie nodded.

"Yes!" She held Jean tightly, refusing to let go.

Meanwhile, Hugo looked at them with a warm smile.

Edgar was the only person in the living room who looked cold.

When he tried to teach Ellie the last time, they had an argument, so he didn't want to repeat his mistakes.

At that moment, the doll Ellie was holding fell to the ground.

Edgar immediately walked over and picked it up for her.

"Lethelp you with this" A gentle expression was shown on his usually indifferent face.

After picking up the doll, he handed it to her and said, "There are strawberry tarts in the kitchen. Would you like some?" In that instant, all three of the adults looked at him.

Even Jean was surprised. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma- Content owner.

Is this man Edgar? He was usually dour and was not good at getting along with kids.

Yet, he was willing to put his pride down and pick up a toy for Ellie.He felt like a stranger to her at that moment.

She even wondered if she was hallucinating.

Julia was the first to return to her senses.

She smiled and spoke before Ellie could reply.

"Susan is great at cooking - do try it out. I'll go first." She got up and went to the kitchen, followed by Ellie.

As soon as Ellie stood up, Hugo followed suit.

When Jean wanted to get up, a warm hand appeared in front of her.

Edgar spoke in a low voice with a smile.

"Be careful" Jean's eyebrows twitched, but she took his hand as support as she stood up.

"Just leave the contract here - I will have a look later. You can leave if you are busy." She never thought he would stay since it would make things awkward for everyone. However, his personality seemed to have changed.

"I haven't had Susan's cooking in a while.I'd like to stay to try it out' Jean was speechless upon hearing that.

Since he had said it aloud, Jean couldn't ask him to leave.

She frowned as she watched Edgar take off his suit and walk into the kitchen to help them out.

Julia brought a strawberry tart to Jean.

"Stop looking at him. He just wants to present his charm and good manners. That's all" Jean returned to her senses upon hearing that.

She retracted her gaze and changed the topic.

"Is it nice?" "Yeah.It's a shyou can't eat it." Ellie was devouring the tart like a kitten, but her head shot up when she heard that.

"This tart is so delicious! Why can't Aunt Jean eat it?" she asked blankly.

Julia lowered her head and looked at her.

"Sometimes, we don't need a reason for things" With that, she crouched and pinched Ellie's face.

"Just like why I want to pinch your face now. Many things in life don't need a reason." At that moment, Jean looked through the kitchen window at Edgar.

That night, everyone seemed to be deep in their thoughts during dinner.

However, Edgar's attitude toward Ellie changed a lot.

Ellie was not scared of him and even started to speak to him.

It was out of Hugo's expectations that Ellie would take a liking to Edgar.

"Uncle Edgar, do you like this?" Ellie showed him the carrots on her plate.

"I don't like it. Can you finish it for me?” she whispered.

"Of course; Edgar replied.

Jean elbowed him, but he didn't notice it.He passed his plate over for Ellie to place her carrot.

"You agreed to eat this. It's not like we are exchanging food." However, a corn pancake appeared on her plate with sdiced carrots.

Ellie pouted and complained, “Uncle Edgar, didn't you promise to eat my carrots?" "I did, and I finished your carrots. But in exchange, you have to finish this corn pancake." Edgar resumed his usual calm and cool self.

Holding her fork tightly, Ellie protested, "But you didn't tellearlier!" She was about to throw a tantrum, but Edgar made her change her mind with just one look.

"Before a transaction, you should ask all the relevant conditions. We cannot O return on our words now that we N haye a deal. This is how you build trust" he explained seriously with a raised eyebrow. While eating, Julia interjected, “Does she understand such a complicated idea?"

Edgar froze upon hearing that. He was focusing on Ellie's attitude, so he m didn't think of anything els€H@ lowered his head and looked at her bright eyes before asking patiently, "Do you want to continue with the transaction?" Hugo turned around with a slightly stern expression.

Just as he was about to say something, Ellie replied, "Yes" Everything proceeded as usual.

At that moment, she behaved like an adult, taking the responsibility that belonged to her without any tantrums.

Hugo was greatly surprised by this.

After Ellie finished her food, Susan took her from the dining table and played with her.

Hugo looked at her plate - she ate more than usual and left no food behind.

Julia smiled gracefully.

"I didn't expect you to be good with kids."

"That's because I don't treat her like a kid.Everyone be treated with respect, Edgar replied coolly. "I was just respecting her right to choose."
