Chapter 209 How Much Did the Reece Family Get?

Phoebe was momentarily stunned. “You mean…”

“Gigi is now a patient in the hospital. It’s not like she’s in prison. If I follow visiting procedures and register, it should be fine, right?” Jean asked seriously. “It’s fine, but you need to ask for the patient or their family’s consent.”

Jean smiled. “Take me to see Dr. Wallace. The Reeces will allow me to visit.” Phoebe was baffled but she trusted Jean and decided to take her to Dr. Wallace’s office. In fact, Dr. Wallace was deeply worried at the time.

It was because there was a huge disparity in the results from Gigi’s past few check-ups, although it probably had something to do with their vigorous therapy plan.

But now, what Dr. Wallace was most apprehensive about was that maybe Gigi didn’t have any mental issues from the start!

“At which stage did the problem appear?” Thinking about the pressure from the hospital director and Edgar, he broke out in a cold sweat from the panic.

Knock knock.

“Who’s there?” Dr. Wallace cried out at the top of his voice.

“Dr. Wallace, this lady says she’s a friend of Ms. Reece. She’s gotten the family’s consent and she wants to visit Gigi.” Phoebe brought Jean into the office.

“Who in the Reece family gave their consent?” Dr. Wallace had an annoyed expression.

Why was it about Gigi again!

The corner of Jean’s lips twitched. “Gigi’s mother, Winnie. She gave me consent to come.”

A few minutes later, Jean opened the door of Gigi’s hospital room.

As soon as she went in, she smelt a strong smell of disinfectant.

“Dr. Wallace, hasn’t too much disinfectant been used here?” Jean looked around as though she was looking for something.

Dr. Wallace thought that Jean was worried about how the over usage of disinfectant would affect the patient’s health, so he immediately explained. “Everything is according to the hospital’s standards. If the patient’s family thinks that too much is used, we can…”

“Too much?”

Jean turned her head sideways as she laughed and said, “No, I don’t think it’s enough.”

She looked at the tightly shut hospital room door ahead. “Gigi’s inside, right?”

Looking at her smile, Dr. Wallace felt that there was a deeper meaning.

But Jean was polite, and her actions were graceful, so he didn’t say anything more. “Go ahead, Ms. Eyer.”

The weird thing was that after Jean went in, he felt that he had heard her name before. It was extremely familiar, but he couldn’t recall it at the time.

“Everyone else, go to the office. Phoebe, stay at the door and keep guard. Don’t let Ms. Reece feel agitated.”

“Don’t worry, Dr. Wallace. I will definitely keep watch.” The corner of Phoebe’s lips twitched. The smile beneath her mask was bright and harmless.

In the hospital room, Jean’s footsteps were light.

Seeing Gigi sleeping soundly on the bed, Jean smiled lightly. She took out a small bottle from her bag and placed it on the table.

Perhaps Gigi felt someone’s stare on her, so she woke up shortly.

When she clearly saw who was sitting in front of her, Gigi immediately let out a scream that pierced the skies. “You witch; I will kill you!”

If it wasn’t for Jean threatening and scheming against her, she wouldn’t be suffering in here. Furthermore, she didn’t need to go out to know how those on the outside were talking about her.

Gigi had signed contracts for a few advertisements, but it had all fizzled. She didn’t know if she could catch up to the role Director Lewis had promised to give her.

Jean caught Gigi’s eye and smiled lightly. “Don’t do anything illegal, Ms. Reece. It’s not good for you or the child.”

The child!

Hearing Jean say those two words, Gigi shivered all over and covered her lower abdomen tightly.

“Get away from me… Help! Is there anyone outside?”

But Phoebe was the one keeping guard outside.

Gigi called out to the heavens and the earth, but neither responded.
