Pregnant With Twins: My CEO’s Tricky Love novel Chapter 509

“From Robert having his incident to the point where you had me take care of the children, you never told me what was up with Robert’s body. We’re mother and daughter, Georgia, and I’ve been through a lot in this life. No need to hide it from me. You might not be as stressed having your mother bear it with you. Anything that pains you, just tell me. I don’t want you to keep frowning unhappily like that.”

When they spoke, the children had left, and Robert wasn’t in the shot as well. Georgia was the only person there, and her eyes reddened.

“I can take it, Mom, but there’s a lot of unknown factors I’m afraid of. Now that he’s woken up, I’m happy enough having him stay healthily by my side and hold me.

“As for Robert’s body, it goes back to a year ago, when you saved me on that island. Then too much has happened. He went missing for a year and actually got taken by Jayson and Sierra’s people. Then they shut him in a lab to do all sorts of live experiments, damaging his body.

“Do you still remember how, a year ago, he couldn’t even stand? All sorts of nerve stimulating drugs and other experiments allowed him to stand again, which caused an abnormal condition to develop in his body as well.

“I really should thank fate, because a lot of people didn’t make it through the lab and died after a while, some in agony. But Robert had a strong body, and now it’s generating substances that can protect it…”

Georgia explained Robert’s situation in brief. Her mother didn’t have professional knowledge, and Georgia could only explain from other angles.

After about a quarter of an hour, Casey mostly understood, and she looked worriedly at her daughter.

“You were really scared with his fever, weren’t you?”

Georgia nodded quietly.

“I was terrified. I couldn’t save him and nobody else had had a condition like this. Thankfully, the Riley fellow contacted me, and his lover had a similar case. But I really not solve this crisis this time…

“I and the friends I know don’t have cases to trace, and whatever methods I come up with could harm his body. I was really afraid then.”

“Have you thought about what to do in the future?”

Casey was just an ordinary person. She wanted to help but knew she had no way of doing so.

She just wanted her daughter and son-in-law to live happily ever after.

She really hoped that there was a solution to Robert’s situation.

“I’ll do my best. In the beginning, I was in despair when I heard about this. But thinking of it now, I’ve already faced down all sorts of danger with him, but we both made it through. So long as I don’t give up hope, we’ll always find a solution.

“I told you about Riley. His lover was in a coma for five years, but he lasted for five years without even giving up now. And Robert’s condition isn’t even as serious as that person’s. All the more reason for me to stick it through, and even thank the stars for it. If Robert had been unconscious for that long, that’s the real cruelty to me. Right now, what I have to do is to work together with other teams to find a way to cure him.”

“Then you have to look after yourself. Your eyes look all tired, and it’s past ten. Hurry up and rest. Don’t pull all-nighters on research. If you collapse, Robert won’t be able to take it either.”

Georgia nodded, and hung up with her mother.

She stood there in silence for a while when a pair of hands hugged her from behind.

Georgia leant back into the man’s embrace comfortably.

“Why did you come over? Aren’t you lying in bed?”

“It’s hard to sleep alone. I want my wife to hold in bed.”

Georgia chuckled, then turned around and hugged her husband.

“It’s such a cold winter, but you’re not warming the bed for me and actually waking up now, eh! You want me to sleep in icy sheets, is that it? No concern for you wife now?”

“It’s too cold for me to sleep alone. We could warm each other in there. Come sleep with me already. I can’t fall asleep without you.”

Georgia giggled, taking Robert’s hand and tiptoeing up to kiss him.

“Come on. Let’s go to bed. I have to wake up early in the morning to work in the lab. I’ll only be energetic enough with good rest. I can’t waste any time now.”

At that, Robert smiled, relieved.

While lying down with her, Robert was all happy when he heard a dangerous question.

“Leda asked me a question today. Know what it was?”
