See You Never, Mr. Lamont

Chapter 175

Chapter 175 Unbearable Betrayal Upon hearing these words, a gleam appeared in Everett’s eyes as he looked at Eileen with anticipation. Whose child is Claudia carrying in her belly? Is it about to be revealed now? Eileen glanced at Everett with difficulty and, seeing no objection from Edmond, whispered, “The exact information I found confirms that the child is indeed not yours, but Pedro’s.” The atmosphere was dead silent. “How did you find out? Is the information reliable?” Everett looked at her curiously. “We’ve been searching for days and couldn’t find anything, but you found it with just one search. Who are you, really?” Eileen smiled faintly and said, “Our organization is called Enigma, I don’t know if you have heard of it.” “Enigma? I can’t believe you are part of this organization!” Everett exclaimed in astonishment, then looked sympathetically at Edmond. “Whatever this organization has found, it must be accurate.” “This Claudia, she’s really audacious!” Everett stood up, his face filled with righteous indignation. “You see, no matter how good you are to her, she’s still a backstabber. Da mn it, it makes me want to curse.” The thing that men cannot tolerate the most is being cu ckolded, especially when they almost become a father. “Actually, even if I hadn’t found out, you could have gone to the hospital and found out yourselves. Claudia now accompanies Pedro for 0.00% 17:43 Chapter 175 Unbearable Betrayal 40 Vouchers childbirth, and they even visited the delivery room together and booked a postpartum center…” Eileen paused for a moment. “In the section for family members, Pedro’s name is there.” Edmond’s face turned terribly gloomy. No wonder she said he was being sentimental, he indeed was being sentimental.

Thinking about Claudia’s decisive decision to divorce, a cold smile curled up at the corner of Edmond’s lips. Mom also said that Claudia liked him, but she had a child with someone else while still married. Is this what she called liking him? He did not want to experience this blatant betrayal for a second time. Everett couldn’t find any comforting words as he looked at Edmond’s cold expression. How long after the divorce’ did they have a child? Soon after, the whole world knew that Edmond had been cheated on. “You guys go out first, I want to be alone for a while.” Edmond propped his forehead with one hand, his handsome face filled with exhaustion.

Everett quickly stood up and Eileen walked out briskly. Just then, the secretary entered the room and said to Edmond, “Mr. Lamont, Ms. Lloyd wants to withdraw from the competition. Take a look at this…” “Then let’s retreat.” Edmond didn’t ask, but suddenly spoke with a chilling voice that sounded like it came from an ice cellar, it was terrifyingly cold. 17.43 “Okay… okay.” The secretary stammered, feeling as if walking on cotton, “Then we don’t have any contestants.” “I’ll do it,” Eileen said with a smile. “I must confess, I was the third- place winner in the previous jewelry design competition.” The atmosphere instantly became awkward. The people present stared at each other in surprise, not expecting to find a former seeded contestant here. “I used to enjoy buying jewelry as a hobby, which later developed into a personal interest. If I were to compete on behalf of the Lamont Group, I can’t guarantee achieving the top position, but at least I won’t let you down.” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Upon hearing Eileen’s words, the secretary smiled. He had originally thought that the Lamont Group would have to withdraw from the competition, but he didn’t expect such a talented person to suddenly appear. “Mr. Lamont, I think it’s feasible. What do you think…” Just then, Everett, who was checking his phone, exclaimed, “Eileen, the third-place winner of the previous jewelry competition and the contestant designer hired by the Ferguson family this year, suddenly withdrew from the competition due to personal reasons…” He looked at Eileen, his face full of astonishment, “You stood up the Ferguson family, but represented the Lamont Group in the competition. This… won’t it cause a war between the two families?” When it was spread out, others would definitely think that the Lamont Group had undermined the Ferguson family. “That’s it then, you will represent the Lamont Group in the competition,” Edmond’s deep gaze fell on Eileen, his tone indifferent. 32.84% 17:43 [ 40 iVouchers “Ranking doesn’t matter, just do your best.” If it weren’t for that person, he wouldn’t have let the company participate in this competition. The Lamont Group’s reputation did not need to be established through competition. Eileen’s heart pounded when she looked at Edmond’s handsome face. She represented the Lamont Group in the competition, and she took another step closer to Edmond. “I will definitely work hard and not let you down.” She had to get a ranking! The news of the Lamont Group changing designers spread overnight throughout the country, as this designer was originally supposed to represent the Ferguson family in the competition. Although this kind of competition was niche, it gained popularity in recent years with the rise of live streaming, and television programs also heavily promoted such competitive shows. As a result, this

competition has garnered a considerable fan base. When Claudia received the news, she was packing her luggage. Yvette called her. “Claudia, I heard that you withdrew from the competition due to health reasons. Are you okay?” “What withdrawal?” Claudia was somewhat puzzled. “The Vencumfield design competition, the one you participated in on behalf of the Lamont Group, is being talked about by everyone now, 17:43 40 Vouchers and they are speaking very harshly…” Claudia quickly opened her phone and sure enough, the first trending topic was about this competition. She withdrew from the competition, she didn’t withdraw at all! What happened to Edmond? Is it a personal grudge? Claudia cursed as she opened her phone to confront Edmond, only to discover that the call had been rejected without even ringing. She was blocked… What did she do wrong? How did she wake up and “get” disqualified? She looked through several hot topics and finally came across the news that Eileen represented the Lamont Group in the competition. Originally, Edmond’s intention was here… Regardless of whether he had personal grievances or other reasons, this Eileen indeed seemed more reliable in all aspects than oneself. But when she went to Vencumfield this time to straighten out the internal discipline of Enigma, she would definitely dismiss Eileen. The most reliable person will become unreliable by then. She frowned and ultimately decided to pay a visit to Edmond’s company.

At the entrance of the Lamont Group, Eileen was coming out with Edmond. After Claudia faced the collision, she just wanted to hide next to the big tree, but Eileen caught sight of her. 67.37% 17:44 “Ms. Lloyd…” Claudia’s face stiffened, and she forced a smile, her feet rooted to the ground as she watched two people approaching her. This was the first time the two of them met after their argument last time. The man’s chin slightly tightened, and his face remained as cold as ever. His gaze lightly swept over her, his eyes calm and unaffected, showing no signs of emotion. Eileen kindly said to Edmond, “Mr. Lamont, why don’t I wait over there for you, and you can go with Wen…” “No need,” Edmond interrupted her with a cold face, his voice devoid of any emotion. “Let’s go.” After finishing speaking, without even looking at Claudia, she lifted her slender legs and walked away, as cold as a flower on a high mountain. His handsome face had well-defined contours, his lips were tightly pressed without warmth, his eyes did not glance sideways as he brushed past her. Claudia didn’t say a word, she just watched as he and Eileen got in the same car. The heart suddenly became numb. As she watched the Maybach drive away, she clenched her fist, her fingertips pressing so hard that her palm hurt. She looked up and glanced at the Lamont Edifice where she had 82.33% 17:44

worked for many years, her eyes feeling sore. She had an emotional attachment to this company, and this competition was also her dream. She wanted to participate and also wanted to contribute her own efforts to the company. But now, it seems like she doesn’t have a chance anymore.
