Pregnant With Twins: My CEO’s Tricky Love novel Chapter 526

Professor Lee sounded overjoyed.

“You went overseas for quite a while this time. I even heard rumors that you’d started a slugfest with the Albertson Group, even put it all on high stakes. Everyone’s admiring you.”

Georgia recalled what Randy had said. Some people were already thinking of her as a goddess of the stock market. She had to laugh.

“The rumors are just rumors. Something did happen, but it’s been resolved. I’ve got some projects I need help researching. It’s hard to speak clearly about it over the phone. If you’re free the day after tomorrow, Professor, I’d like to come meet up, then show you the information. I’d also like to invite you into the project, Professor.”

“I’ll be in the labs that day, and I’m not busy with much these days. Just staying in the lab and experimenting with those folks.”

Georgia smiled, relieved. Then she thought of Aston.

“Professor, has Aston gone back to MU to work yet? Something happened yesterday and he’s a bit angry with me, so he came back early. I’ve been too busy to ask after him. Do you know what’s up with him, Professor?”

“That guy did come back, but he hasn’t come in to work yet. I went to see him once. He’s getting blackout drunk in his apartment every day. Refuses to see anyone. If he hadn’t still an ounce of respect for me, I probably wouldn’t have managed to see him either.

“I told him to work properly and get it together, but he couldn’t. He just told me to leave him alone and let him go wild for a while. Seems like there’s a lot of pent up resentment and sadness in him. I just let him do it, so he wouldn’t develop ulcers from working madly in the lab like last time.”

Was he still not getting it together? Georgia didn’t know if her decision back then had been the right one.

But Kayden had requested it, and Kayden was in a safe location now. There was news of her coming out.

Kayden was going through her attacks, and she was in great pain.

But her body was well maintained, and aside from her spirit being tormented, her flesh could still take it for now.

Maybe she should meet with Aston and talk about it.

“I’ll go see Aston and see if I can persuade him, Professor. Don’t worry.”

“Then I’ll leave it to you. This kid is really just too invested in emotions. All those years I’ve known him, he’s been cold to people and things outside of himself. He managed to fall in love through so much difficulty, but then he just ended up hurt again and again. The path of love is truly a treacherous one.”

Georgia thought about it and felt the Professor’s words made sense.

That was the sort of person Aston was. He didn’t have much he cared about. He had his dreams, so he could work seriously every day, and devote himself to the lab.

With love, he loved and protected that person with complete pureness.

But unfortunately, that love was based on lies and deceit from the very beginning.

Even now, he couldn’t recover.

After calling Professor Lee, Robert had come back.

“Hurry up and shower, then come to bed. I’m nodding off already.”

Robert complied, while Georgia laid in bed, drifting off drowsily.

A few minutes later, she felt a weight by her. Robert had already finished showering, put his pajamas on, and laid down in bed.

“I’m feeling a bit sleepy. If there’s anything, we can talk about it tomorrow. Let me rest for a while.”

Georgia mumbled and closed her eyes, falling asleep completely.

She slept all the way through to when it was almost noon the following day. She was probably just that tired and secure in her own home, but Georgia slept particularly comfortably this night. No dreams at all, just restful sleep.
