Chapter 139 You Never Go Back on Your Promises
Just as he tried to get closer to her, she took a few steps back. “Get away from me.” Her disgusted gaze was not just to create distance between them, but she truly hated this man at this moment.
Her gaze stopped his movements at once. Clutching his shirt, he finally spoke after a long time. “I’ll get you some clothes and send you home.”
She turned her head away from him and stopped looking at him. Feeling unhappy about this, he retracted his gaze. Then, he heard someone knocking on the door, followed by Gigi’s loud voice.
“Open the door, Edgar!” she yelled heartbreakingly. However, the more desperate she was, the more aloof he became. Looking at the torn clothes on the ground, Jean knew that she could no longer wear them. What if she barges into the room?
“Edgar!” Then, Gigi asked the hotel staff to bring a spare key to open the door. In no time, she barged into the room with a few other people and saw Edgar, with his back facing her, hugging a woman in the sheets.
In that instant, she was so furious that she almost passed out. “You guys… who is she? How could you do this to me, Edgar? I’m enduring all the difficulties of pregnancy for you, yet you are fooling around here!”
The torn clothes and the messy sheets proved how intense the activity was the night before. Gigi’s eyes widened with hatred. I shouldn’t have gone to see Andy. When I came back, I couldn’t open the door at all. The hotel staff also received my instructions to not open the door, no matter who arrived.
Just like that, she had waited a whole night. She did not expect Edgar to find another woman to satisfy his desire. With that thought in mind, she trembled in fury.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
I spent so much effort just for others to receive the reward. “Let me see who she is!”
She walked over to them to pull Jean’s hair, but Edgar caught her with his hand. “Enough!” he bellowed sternly. She had never seen such an expression in his eyes. After being momentarily stunned, she sobbed in devastation. “How could you betray me, Edgar?”
“Ask yourself what on earth were you doing yesterday? Gigi, my patience is limited.”
Upon hearing that, Gigi did not dare to throw any more tantrums. After all, she did not expect him to know about her activities from the day before.
“I–” she mumbled, but was unable to defend herself. Throughout their exchange, Edgar’s hand never left Jean’s shoulders, and he covered her body and face with the sheets.
When Miles arrived, he carried Jean in his arms and walked out of the room without sparing Gigi a second glance.
“Edgar…” Sitting on the couch, Gigi sobbed her heart out.
She had no idea how long it had been until she heard a voice above her.
“Would you like to know who that woman was?” Andy lowered his head to look at her before lifting her chin. “It was Jean.”
“What?”
Gigi could not accept this answer.
Even if Jean shamelessly came into the room to seduce him, why would he keep her here, knowing what condition he was in? Based on the few questions he asked just now, I’m sure he was conscious.
Gigi froze on the spot with jealousy raging within her.
…
Meanwhile, Edgar brought Jean to the presidential suite on the top floor.
After placing her on the bed gingerly, he said in a low voice, “Take a good rest. I’ll ask someone to send some clothes over. We can talk after you calm down.”
As he spoke, he noticed that she did not reply at all, not even retaliating toward his words.
“Jean?”
He pulled the blanket away and saw her flushed face. Her eyes were shut tightly, and she seemed to be in pain.
For the first time, he lost his cool and immediately asked Miles to call a doctor.
He also asked a few female caretakers to serve Jean.
He never left the room, even when he received multiple calls from the company.
“Mr. Royden, it’s very likely that Ms. Eyer ate something wrong that caused her blood pressure to increase sharply. Apart from that, her high fever and vertigo is from her overworking herself recently.
Looking at the woman in bed, he asked, “When will she wake up?”
