Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 330

Chapter 330 Unwilling to Give Up

That afternoon, Gigi was getting ready to see Edgar when she received a call from the hospital. “What? Are you sure? Hasn’t he already regained consciousness? Why would he be suffering from brain damage?”

The nurse explained patiently over the phone, “There is no mistake. The patient has a severe brain injury and needs another surgery. It would be best if you came to the hospital immediately to sign the papers. If you delay any longer, the patient may fall into a coma.”

The nurse hung up immediately after explaining. Gigi turned pale and was too shocked to speak. Susan finally returned to work today and heard Gigi calling her father in the dining room. “Dad, Edgar needs another surgery. What should I do? Will he…”

Susan nearly went into cardiac arrest from shock and immediately called Jean on her phone. “Ms. Eyer, it’s about Mr. Royden.” Jean was stunned after hearing Susan.

Edgar seemed quite well when she last saw him in the hospital. She could not understand how his condition would suddenly become so severe.

“Ms. Eyer, if you have the time, can you please check on Mr. Royden in the hospital? I fear Gigi and her father might not do anything for him if something bad happens to him.”

Jean furrowed her brow. “But nothing will change even if I go there.” Furthermore, she had no right to go there. “Ms. Eyer, I beg of you. Mr. Royden has no one else…”

Jean nodded slowly. “All right, I understand.” She brought a flower basket and headed to the hospital. But this time, the Reece family’s bodyguard stopped her at the entrance.

“Please leave.” Jean wanted to laugh. Only Gigi would come up with something like this. “The Reece family does not own this hospital. So, why can’t I go in? You have no right to stop me. Step aside, or I’ll call the police.”

The bodyguards exchanged glances. They could not deny that what Jean said was right. However, they had to follow orders and refused to budge.

“All right then. Can you help me bring this flower basket to Edgar? This isn’t too much to ask, isn’t it?” Jean put down the flower basket and turned around to leave.

The bodyguards watched her leave before bringing the flower basket upstairs.

Meanwhile, Jean walked to the car on the opposite street and turned on her Bluetooth earpiece.

She had placed a pinhole camera in the flower basket. Before coming here, she gave some thought and knew Gigi would be wary of her and refuse her entry.

However, Jean did not mind and came up with another way.

Furthermore, she had other matters that she wanted to investigate. For example, she wanted to know how the relationship between Sam and Gigi was.

The surveillance footage was transmitted to her in real-time. Thus, it was a little blurry.

Jean adjusted the angle so that the camera pointed at the man lying in bed.

Then, she pressed a button and heard the voices in Edgar’s room.

“Dad, what if Edgar ends up like this for the rest of his life? What am I to do?” Gigi stomped her foot anxiously. “I’m still young. I don’t want to live like a widow.”

“Nonsense!”

Sam stared at Edgar. He stepped forward and slapped Edgar’s shoulder and arm before saying with a frown, “If he becomes bedridden, you can take out that agreement and tell everyone that your marriage is invalid.”

Gigi bit her lower lip.

“That won’t do.”

“What else can you do? Are you going to stay by his side forever?” Sam yelled furiously, “I wanted you to marry him so that you can enjoy a good life. You should wake up a little!”

Gigi muttered, “I had to give up sending Jean to prison to keep Edgar by my side, so I feel indignant having to end the marriage so soon.”

She spent countless efforts to reach this point. Thus, she believed she would regret it if she were to let go now.

Jean frowned as she watched Sam and Gigi.

They treated marriage as nothing more than a business transaction.

Jean looked at Gigi’s expression with conflicting emotions. She felt some regret and sadness for Gigi.

Sam had raised Gigi into such a morally corrupted being. If Jean and Gigi’s father were alive, he would have been heartbroken.

Suddenly, Sam received a call and left in a rush, saying there was some matter in the company.
