In the ward, Daisy got Bridget settled in. Not seeing Jasper, she said to Madam Clinton in anger, "Where's your son? His wife is lying on the bed bearing his child. Isn't he going to take a look?"
Daisy sensed that Jasper might have quarreled with Bridget. On their wedding day, Jasper put a straight face all day.
Now that something happened to Bridget, she became even angrier.
Knowing that it was Jasper's fault, Madam Clinton apologized to Daisy, "Jasper is bad-tempered. Don't take it to heart. I'll teach him a lesson."
Then Jasper came in.
As soon as he entered, Daisy immediately asked, "What's wrong with you? Don't you feel sorry for your wife?"
Jasper just stood there, without answering Daisy's words. Daisy got angry and snapped, "Jasper, what do you mean? Bridget is being nice to you. How can you show us that attitude?"
"Mom, forget it." Bridget struggled to get up from the bed.
Mad as Daisy was, she quickly went to help her. Madam Clinton repeatedly apologized to Daisy for her son.
Jasper felt terrible and said, "Mom, I'll take responsibility for what I did. I don't need you to apologize to me."
Daisy snorted coldly. 'How filial you are!'
"Tell me, what's going on?" Daisy sat at the head of the bed and looked at Jasper.
Jasper remained silent for a long time before he was about to speak.
Bridget, who was leaning against Daisy's arms, looked at Jasper and said, "It's all my fault today. Don't be angry. For the sake of the baby."
Bridget felt wronged, but she didn't want to leave Jasper. Now that she was pregnant, she wanted to use the baby to keep him be with her.
Daisy frowned, not expecting Bridget to speak first. And what she said embarrassed her slightly.
It was as if she had wronged Jasper.
Jasper looked at Bridget and said, "You did make a mistake today, scolding, cursing like a lunatic. What you said today really degraded yourself."
Daisy's face darkened completely. As Bridget was fine, she decided to let it go. She looked at Madam Clinton and said, "Bridget is now your daughter-in-law. She's pregnant with your grandson. You should take good care of her. If something happens, you will suffer."
"We will take good care of her. Please be assured." Madam Clinton promised, "We'll make sure nothing happens to her."
Madam Clinton rolled her eyes at Jasper. What he said just now embarrassed Daisy.
Daisy couldn't do anything about Bridget. She was helpless and angry. She couldn't scold Bridget as she was pregnant.
She sighed slightly. She could tell that Bridget was obsessed with Jasper and he didn't care much about Bridget. She was worried about her.
Daisy was uncertain.
Now she regretted not listening to Xavier.
From the beginning, Xavier had opposed Bridget to marrying Jasper. He probably could tell that Jasper didn't care about Bridget.
Given that they were married, Daisy didn't want to interfere.
Besides, now that Bridget was pregnant, she left the hospital with Henry in anger.
It was almost dawn, and Jasper asked his parents to go back to rest. He stayed in the hospital.
Madam Clinton was worried and said, "Jasper, Bridget is pregnant now. Don't displease her."
She didn't understand why Jasper didn't like Bridget since they were married.
Jasper pressed his temples hard and said, trying to control his temper, "Okay."
Madam Clinton left the hospital with her husband, thinking that they could spend some time alone.
When everyone left, there were only Bridget and Jasper left in the ward.
