Mr George, Don't Be So Arrogant novel Chapter 32

The arrival of a popular celebrity at the hospital for a pregnancy checkup was already big news that could shake the whole city, not to mention solely with the influence of the name, Lydia Saunders could already dominate the front page of the newspapers.

There was no need to explain more on the sensation and the influence given when the president of the MBK International Corporation, Euan George also kept her company. Although both of them, or maybe including Riley, three of them had stayed low profile by driving the car straight into the underground garage, they did not manage to escape from the journalists’ encircling.

Upon seeing Euan’s luxurious Rolls-Royce car stopping, a bunch of journalists filed in as if they were a bunch of sharks which had discerned the smell of blood. Riley who was in the car slightly wrinkled her eyebrows.

She was just an ordinary citizen and until now, she was absolutely an outsider of the incident. Seeing the looming journalists surrounding the car with microphones and cameras in their hands tightly, she felt amused and frustrated at the same time. Euan also frowned. He turned back and glanced at Lydia. “We can’t go out now. There’re too many people. It’s dangerous.”

His care was certainly useful against her and she nodded with a warm, gentle smile. “I’ll listen to you and wait for a while in the car.” Riley pouted with a carefree attitude. “From their look, I think they won’t give up in such a short time. Could popular celebrities not know how horrifying the professionalism of the journalists working in entertainment is?

They could stay here for the whole day without eating or drinking. Therefore just staying in the car won’t solve the problem.” Euan then only glimpsed at her listlessly and his cold voice did not show any emotion. “You sound like you have a way to solve the problem?”

Riley frowned and as she just opened her mouth, Lydia chimed in, “Maybe you don’t know, but she’s good at dealing with these matters. She was the one who chased the journalists blocking the corridor away when I visited you in the hospital last time.”

Riley let out a grim smile. So she would not give up until she seized an opportunity to betray her? How good memory she had! “Euan, I think we should let Doctor Watson handle the matter this time. She’s the doctor here, and she’s very experienced.” Lydia always spoke with a soft and gentle voice. Her sweet and pretentious voice nearly made Riley vomited due to disgust when she heard it.

As Riley had not calmed down her stomach yet, she heard Euan’s deep voice slowly coming from the side. “Since you’re that experienced, I’ll let you take care of the journalists outside.” She slowly opened her eyes and replied, “Me?”

“Why? It’s your place, could you possibly want me to deal with it myself?” he spoke with authority and had rejected her chance to explain. Riley gently bit her lip. He wanted her to stay safely in the car but her to deal with those predators outside? She let out a grim smile and loosened her seat belt.

“Sure, I’ll go.” As she opened the car door, her skinny figure was drowned amidst the sea of journalists who were pushing against each other madly. She who was not short was banged and pushed in the middle of the journalists who composed of both men and women, and there were several times which her legs were not on the ground!

“Miss Saunders! With Mr. George sends you here for pregnancy checkup, does that mean the good news is just around the corner?”

“Mr. George, Miss Saunders has mentioned wanting to endorse the jewellery products of MBK lately, would that be suspended because of this?”

“Mr. George, would the production of Miss Saunders’ new movie cease too? Rumors say you’ll compensate for every loss of the movie crew, is it true?”

Barrage of questions from the journalists stormed into the car through the door which was not yet closed. Euan held the door handle with his long hand and his fierce look was shot across the crowd. The white shadow was staggering amidst the mad, zombie-like journalists.

Suddenly, Riley let out a scream. Her scream was not loud compared to the mix of questioning sounds, yet Euan still wrinkled his eyebrows. He slammed the door next to the front passenger’s seat shut and gripped the door handle at the left subconsciously.

“Euan, those journalists are too scary. I’m slightly worried of the baby…” A soft voice came from behind. The helplessness and grievance arouse one’s sympathy. “Don’t worry, she’ll handle it well.” Euan once again glanced at the crowd, but Riley was nowhere to be found anymore.

Riley gasped when she felt the pain from her knee. The wound on her knee which was going to form scar was abraded once more from the banging just now and the sharp pain spread through her whole body from the knee.

Luckily she had finally made her way out of the crowd! She endured the pain and straightened her back, moving her legs which were covered by long pants and looked for the security guards. A dark shadow dashed before her and she felt a moment of blackout. As she looked up once again, she saw the flawless face with a gentle look above her at the side. “Why are you here?”

William held her who was going to fall with one hand. “Me? I was late, and I didn’t expect to witness such a scene. What about you?”

“I’m fine. I have to look for the security guards to chase the journalists away first. Lydia Saunders is in the car.”

William looked down and lifted his eyebrow when he saw her long pants drenched with blood. “Your knee needs to be treated now, I’ll help you upstairs.”

“It’s okay, go find the security guards first. Lydia Saunders is coming for a pregnancy checkup today, if anything happens to her, it would be a bad influence to the hospital.” Riley refused and she wanted to remove his arm.

William frowned more. “I don’t know Lydia Saunders, but your knee needs to be treated immediately. From the color of the blood, the wound must have lasted more than two days. Come with me.” Facing Riley’s stubbornness, Doctor Hardesty could only apply the basic principle a doctor should have to force her to get treatment.
