Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 200

Chapter 200 The Wrong Odds

Winnie walked into the hospital quickly. She met Edgar at the door of Gigi’s ward. “Edgar, how is Gigi?”

“She is still unconscious.” Edgar glanced back at the ward, then headed to the dean’s office. Miles followed suit. Winnie shook her head and sighed. Then, she pushed the door and entered.

“Gigi?” She called out to Gigi. Gigi’s eyes were tightly closed and she did not respond to Winnie’s call. Winnie closed the door carefully and locked it. “They have gone to the dean’s office. If you are awake…”

Before she even finished her words, Gigi had opened her eyes. She waved at Winnie. “Hurry, get me some food. I’m starving.” She had not dared to move when Edgar and Miles were here just now. She was afraid that they would see through her deception.

Winnie quickly poured her some water and passed her a banana. Gigi asked as she ate. “Was Edgar worried about me?”

Winnie nodded gently. “I knew it. As long as I try hard enough, Edgar will surely care about me. He has now begun to suspect Jean. It wouldn’t be long before I make her leave Edgar completely.”

The more she spoke, the more excited she got. When Winnie saw her like this, she suddenly understood Jean’s words. Jean did nothing; Gigi had framed her. “Gigi, aren’t you afraid that Edgar would realize?”

Gigi frowned immediately. She threw the banana peel at Winnie. “What do you mean? Who’s acting?”

She had already thought about it long ago. As long as she didn’t admit it, there wouldn’t be any proof. So what if Edgar suspected her?

She would have to stay in bed because of this fall. As long as he still cared for this child, there would be a chance for her. Winnie let out a quiet sigh. Just as she wanted to advise Gigi, a knock on the door was heard.

Gigi immediately lied back under her quilt and pretended that she had just woken up. She faked a painful expression.

Winnie went over to open the door.

Miles stood at the door. He handed some daily necessities over to Winnie. “Mr. Royden told me to get these for Ms. Reece.”

“Where is Edgar?”

Gigi got up and asked.

“Mr. Royden had some urgent matters to deal with. He will be back soon.” Miles replied without looking at Gigi.

Gigi laid on the bed and rolled her eyes.

“Well then. I shouldn’t disturb him.”

She did not cry or make any trouble. She covered herself with her quilt and turned her back to them.

Winnie quickly took a step forward and said, “Gigi is still feeling unwell. Please tell the doctor to come have a look at her again later. She fell really hard this time, so we have to be extra cautious.”

“Yes.”

Miles nodded. He glanced at Gigi before leaving the room.

Winnie closed the door after he left and walked over to the bed. “Your father will come after his meeting. You should sleep first.”

Gigi smiled proudly.

Winnie glanced out of the window.

Jean might still be at the hospital. If she was, Edgar was most likely with her now.

Was Jean more important than Gigi and her child?

Winnie muttered under her breath and looked at Gigi, who was on the bed. She was uncertain if she had chosen the right odds.

But if Jean was really that important to Edgar, the Eyer family would not have gone down then.

What was Edgar thinking?

At this time, in the hospital lobby.

Edgar’s eyes were cold. He saw Jean playing with a stray cat at the hospital entrance.

The smile on her face was so bright and natural; he seldom saw her smile like that.

Jean stretched out her slender wrist and rubbed the kitten’s head gently. Her gentle gestures showed her patience and kindness.

How could a kind person like her push a pregnant woman?

No matter how much she hated them, she should target him instead.

He stopped walking towards Jean abruptly when he thought of this.

Perhaps he shouldn’t force Jean to stay by his side.
