Chapter 199 Not Everyone Can Be a Mother
Gigi was confident that Jean had gotten the contract by selling her body. She was a woman too. She knew too well how fast such benefits come. Jean could sense provocation in Gigi’s eyes.
“You don’t have to be so polite to me. You are Edgar’s future business partner, so you are my friend as well. I hope we can get along well in future.” Jean almost burst out in laughter. How could the both of them get along with each other?
Moreover, Jean could not be bothered at all! “I don’t think that is necessary, Ms. Reece. I don’t need any help.” Jean walked past Gigi. “I reckon that Mr. Royden need not have my care anymore.”
The man frowned. Just as he was about to refute her, Gigi stepped forward. “Edgar got hurt because of you… Are you going to leave just like that?”
She fluttered her eyelashes and continued, “But you have always been mean. The Ludwig family are in chaos now too because of you.”
Edgar glared at Gigi to stop her from talking. But Jean stepped in front of Gigi and clutched her hand. “What happened to the Ludwig family?”
“Ben had a huge row with his father because of you. His father had a heart attack during the fight. He almost lost his life on the way to the hospital.”
Gigi raised her eyebrows and pretended as if Jean had pulled her close, whispered into Jean’s ear.
“Edgar was hurt because of you. The Ludwig family has no peace because of you. I will be too embarrassed to stay in this city if I were you.”
“Yet you still have the face to collaborate with Edgar as his ex-wife.”
“Jean, wake up.”
Then, Gigi suddenly fell backwards.
“Ah!”
Gigi fell onto the ground as if Jean was the one who pushed her down.
“My child…”
She shouted in panic. She stared at Jean with misty eyes, as if accusing Jean silently.
Susan was shocked. She hurried over to help Gigi up, but she kept screaming, saying that she was in pain.
Cold sweat broke on her forehead. She did not seem like she was acting. Her acting skill was not this good.
Jean stood there in place. She slowly clutched her fists.
Gigi was determined to act this out properly.
She had wanted to keep her child but…
Jean watched Edgar rush to Gigi as fast as lighting. His elbow did not seem to be hurt at all. He could move freely too.
He frowned and ordered Susan solemnly. “Get the car and send her to the hospital.”
“Edgar, I’m scared. Will our child be safe?”
Gigi sweated profusely in pain.
Perhaps it was because she felt helpless, or perhaps it was fear. She gripped onto Edgar’s shirt tightly. It was worrying.
“Oh no! Ms. Reece is bleeding.” Susan saw blood oozing out of Gigi’s dress as soon as she called the driver in.
“Edgar…”
Edgar could not bother about anything else anymore. He ordered fiercely, “Susan, watch over her.”
Then he picked Gigi up in his arms and walked out.
The sound of his car engine was heard. Soon, it was gone in a hurry.
Jean stood in place. Her face was pale. She lowered her head and looked at her fingers, then at the pool of blood on the ground.
Susan thought she was shocked, and quickly comforted Jean. “Ms. Reece had bled before. The doctor told her to have more rest at home. What happened earlier on must had been an accident. Don’t take it to heart.”
Susan believed that Jean would never do such a thing.
Even if she had been a bit more forceful, she must not have meant to push her.
Jean lowered her voice and asked softly, “How can a person like her be a mother?”
Her voice was too soft to be audible for Susan.
