Chapter 203 Please Stay Still
“Please stay still.” There was nothing Miles could do except order his assistants to find a way to open the balcony door. He did not dare to think what would happen if Gigi lost her balance and fell.
At this moment, the words coming from downstairs reminded Gigi.
Thus, she covered her head and wailed, “I don’t want to live anymore. My baby suffered so much before it had a chance to be born. Why should I let it enter this world? I failed as a mother. I might as well jump and end everything!”
Gigi put on a heart-wrenching act. Suddenly, she saw a figure appearing behind Miles. It was not Edgar but Jean. She had decided to return.
Gigi’s heart sank. But she could not stop acting until Edgar showed up. Otherwise, people would laugh at her. Furthermore, she couldn’t get into her room and had no choice but to stay on the cold balcony.
Jean glanced at Gigi and smiled. She deliberately lowered her voice and said something next to Miles. That prompted Gigi to panic and slam her hands against the balcony door.
“Don’t listen to her nonsense. This woman is trying to harm me. She is jealous that I’m pregnant with Edgar’s baby.”
Miles frowned and said helplessly, “Ms. Reece, please calm down.” However, Gigi refused to listen. She kept screaming and raving like a lunatic.
Jean smiled even wider.
Soon, the hospital staff began to take action.
Since Gigi was someone close to Edgar, the whole hospital would be in severe trouble if anything happened to her.
The hospital director shouted, “Quick! Knock down the door!” The hospital staff immediately surrounded the door.
Miles frowned and rushed to stop them. “There’s not enough space on the balcony. Ms. Reece could get hurt if you break down the door. I’ve already called the police to deal with this.”
“Do we have no choice but to watch?” The hospital director broke out in cold sweat. “Where’s the spare key? Go to the security and get it!”
“Mr. Royden is on the way. What we need to do now is to calm Ms. Reece. Don’t agitate her anymore.” Miles looked at Jean with hesitation.
Jean smiled calmly. “I don’t mind leaving, but you should ask her if she allows me to leave.”
Gigi clenched her fists on the balcony. She shook her head and soon started screaming, “Don’t let her leave!”
Jean seemed to have expected this, making Miles even more suspicious of her.
He turned to the bodyguard behind him and said, “Keep looking for a way to open the door.”
“Understood.”
Gigi had been standing outside in the cold wind for more than ten minutes.
Ordinary people would find it unbearable. It was even worse for the pregnant Gigi.
Meanwhile, Jean sat on the couch. No one made her leave.
Gigi kept staring at Jean. She refused to look away even for a second.
Her eyes were full of hatred and fear.
Miles remained tensed as he looked at the two women.
Still, he was thankful Gigi stopped screaming about jumping off the balcony. Furthermore, the hospital staff worked with the police and set up an inflatable mattress below. The paramedics were also on standby.
However, it was still unsafe for a person to fall from such a height.
Moreover, Gigi was pregnant with Edgar’s baby.
Thus, the key personnel of the hospital rushed about under the hospital director’s orders. They waited nervously for updates on the matter, fearing something had happened to Gigi.
At this moment, the deputy hospital director rushed to the hospital director and said, “Dr. Roffe, there’s something…”
Dr. Roffe widened his eyes after listening to him. “Quick! Go and get ready!”
While everyone was sweating nervously, Gigi was nearly frozen in the cold. Throughout all this, Jean never even touched Gigi.
Miles had confirmed that after checking the surveillance footage. It made him even more confused.
What is Gigi afraid of?
Ten minutes later, Edgar walked in. He had a cold and intimidating expression as he glanced around the room. He saw Gigi pale from the cold and Miles was waiting for his instruction at the side.
