30 Days Until He Loses Me by Aaren Collins novel Chapter 20

Chapter 20

One day, after work, Felicia saw a striking luxury car parked at the entrance of the hospital.

“Wow, whose car from the rich list is this?”

“Can our hospital even accommodate such wealthy people? I thought they all had private doctors or even their own hospitals?”

Amidst her colleagues‘ discussions, Felicia watched as Jacques got out of the car, opened the door for her, and respectfully called out, “Madam.”

“Oh God, it’s Felicia!”

Felicia felt very embarrassed, as her persona at the hospital was still that of a single woman…

After getting in the car, Felicia tactfully suggested that in the future, if there was something, he didn’t need to pick her up directly at the hospital, as it would not look good in front of her colleagues.

Jacques agreed readily, but Felicia did not know that all of this was Gideon’s idea.

From then on, everyone at the hospital knew that Felicia was taken.

Gideon’s favorite thing was to solve problems at the root.

He said solemnly, “Feli, move in with me.”

“Huh? What? Move in and live with you?”

Felicia thought she had misheard and raised her voice all of a sudden.

Seeing the surprise and doubt in Felicia’s eyes, Gideon naturally gave the excuse he had long prepared: “Welfare agencies make unannounced visits to adoptive families, and since I am considered a public figure, there may be even more attention from the outside world. If they find out that you and I are living apart, perhaps…”

Gideon did not finish his sentence, but he knew Felicia would understand the implication.

After a long while, he looked on with satisfaction as Felicia nodded in hesitation, “Then I’ll trouble you, Mr. Logan.”

“If a reporter hears you call me Mr. Logan, I’m afraid they won’t even need to investigate to see what our relationship is,” Gideon joked, half–seriously.

“Then in public I’ll call you Gideon, and in private I’ll still call you Mr. Logan.”

Gideon did not respond, but simply took Abigail from Felicia’s arms.

The little one, after careful care, looked much healthier now.

Perhaps because she was cared for by Felicia so much, she even started to resemble Felicia a little.

His expression unconsciously softened as he pinched Abigail’s little cheeks and teased, “Say Daddy.”

Felicia’s face instantly turned as red as fire.

Gideon only smiled without saying a word.

From then on, the two of them began to “co–rent” and “cohabit” under the same roof.

That being said, the huge villa had five floors, and although they both lived on the same floor, Gideon left early and returned late, and sometimes went on business trips for several days, so they saw each other even less.

Indeed, welfare agencies did come to check on Abigail’s condition.

Whenever that happened, Gideon would cancel all his appointments for the next day in advance and spend the whole day with the mother and daughter.

With Gideon’s financial resources, Abigail’s health was also well maintained.

In this way, four years passed, and it was almost five.

Felicia had managed to save a small sum, and on Gideon’s birthday, she spent a fortune to buy him a tie as a gift.

In previous years, she had never made much of a gesture, but this year was different–she had received a big bonus.

That night, Gideon only returned after two rounds of drinks outside.

When he saw Felicia’s gift, he was a little touched: “Feli, thank you.”

Felicia, on the other hand, felt a bit embarrassed.

Gideon’s wealth almost accounted for a quarter of France’s economy, so the money she spent really seemed insignificant.

But this was already the most generous she had ever been.

She had never chosen such an expensive gift for anyone before.

It was truly painful to spend that much.

However, looking at Abigail’s increasingly chubby little body, she felt full of gratitude toward Gideon again.

If it weren’t for him, she still wouldn’t have saved enough money to adopt Abigail by now.

Perhaps by now, Abigail might have already been adopted by another family.
