Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 227 Hypocrite

Winnie panicked at once. “Please don’t, Gigi. I… I have another plan.” Winnie quickly drew close to Sam and said,

“Besides Edgar, I’m the closest person to Jean. As long as I rack my brain, I can surely think of a way to control

her.”

“Rack your brain? What else are you going to rack out of your brain?! My child is going to be born soon. Only now

do I realize that you’re siding with Jean. You must be deliberately helping her to buy time, aren’t you?”

Gigi snorted arrogantly and pointed at Winnie’s nose. “I don’t care. I want you to disappear from my sight right

away. Only one of us can stay in this family!”

After all, she was Sam’s biological daughter, and was pregnant with Edgar’s child. Since she had said so, Sam

couldn’t possibly brush her aside.

“Get the car ready, Louis.”

No matter how Winnie cried and begged, Sam did not change his mind.

Before getting into the car, Winnie scurried to Sam’s study room to beg for his mercy again, but she accidentally

overheard Sam calling Quinn, and that he intended to bring her back to Reece Residence!

Before Winnie could storm into the room to argue with Sam, she was dragged into the car by the servants. She

sobbed non-stop in the car as the driver sent her to Alter Valley.

However, Gigi was still sulky. Moments later, she changed and headed to Andy’s condominium.

The moment she stepped into the house, the two of them hugged each other fervently.

Andy was able to satisfy Gigi with all that she failed to obtain from Edgar.

They were intimate with each other, but Gigi remained prudent for the sake of the child she was pregnant with.

“If only Edgar was half as gentle as you,” Gigi complained in an affectionate manner.

Andy’s eyes darkened as he asked sulkily, “What on earth do you like about Edgar? He knows nothing about

women, and he has never willingly accompanied you. The gifts I gave you are ten times more than his. Why do you

still choose him over me?”

Andy reached out his hand and seized Gigi’s chin. “He has never touched you at all.”

Pressing her lips, Gigi turned her face away. “Edgar is one of a kind. No one can compare with him.”

Andy became dejected upon hearing her response. So, he pushed Gigi to the side with a cold expression.

“Come on, don’t be angry.”

Gigi knew she couldn’t lose him as her support, so she reached out her arms to encircle his waist and leaned her

head against his back. “This incident made me realize that besides my dad, you’re the man who treats me the

nicest.”

Andy cast a glance at Gigi before the coldness on his face faded.

He lay down on the bed and placed his hand on Gigi’s shoulder. “Although the plan failed this time, you should be

able to tell that Edgar still hasn’t gotten over that woman.”

Gigi cast her eyes down and remained silent.

In fact, she had had a bad hunch about this for some time. Back then, although she had caused Jean to lose her

child, it intensified Edgar’s guilt toward Jean.

“Edgar would never give up as long as Jean is single. My poor child is going to be born into a broken family…” Gigi

mumbled with a frown.

Andy’s eyes looked as deep as the ocean. “Gigi Reece, as long as you agree, I can promise you a carefree solution.”

“Really?”

Gigi lifted her head and gazed at Andy hopefully.

“As long as you follow my instructions…”

After hearing Andy’s plan, Gigi shook her head. “I’m a bad actor. I won’t be able to deceive Edgar. It might even

ruin the plan between you and my dad.”

“It won’t. Edgar has never guarded against you. You just need to reveal some business information that I ought to

know. I’m not asking you to betray him. Besides, I’m a director of Royden Group too, so I have the right to know

about everything that is going on in the company.”

Gigi furrowed her brows and remained silent.

“You’re a smart girl. I’m sure you’re able to sneak out the document without anyone noticing.” Andy kissed Gigi’s

forehead and continued, “I’ll help your dad earn a fortune too after I obtain the information. We can kill two birds

with one stone.”

“Do you really think I can do it?” Gigi had encountered failure countless times in her career and her relationship

with Edgar. She was often scolded at home, and she only had a few fans.

Only Andy could make her feel appreciated.

“Of course. Besides, you’re doing this for our child.” With that, Andy pressed his body against Gigi’s again.

“Please don’t. I’m too tired.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll be gentle.”

The next morning, Jean opened her eyes to see a nurse standing beside her bed.

Noticing that Jean had awakened, the nurse came up to her, but Jean shook her head and pointed at her ear.

The nurse sighed and quickly went out to report to the director.

“Dr. Roffe, Ms. Eyer’s hearing has not recovered yet.”

Dr. Roffe, who was sipping a cup of tea in his office, nearly lost grip of the cup when he heard it. “That’s terrible.

Another day has passed. Mr. Royden is surely going to throw a fit again.”

Dr. Wallace sighed and said, “Dr. Roffe, this is an accidental injury, and there’s no estimated time of recovery. Ms.

Eyer might not recover her hearing this lifetime. We can’t be blamed for this.”

Looking devastated, Dr. Roffe said, “If we fail to heal her hearing, not only will you guys be fired, even I will lose my

job.”

Suddenly, Dr. Wallace slapped his lap and proposed, “Dr. Roffe, we still have a last resort – to send Ms. Eyer to the

main hospital overseas. The specialists there might have a way.”

“That works too. Let’s delay it as long as we can.”

Dr. Roffe immediately informed Edgar about the proposal.

Edgar pondered for a moment and asked, “Are you sure it’ll work?”

“Mr. Royden, we can only try every method possible. It might be helpful to Ms. Eyer.” Dr. Roffe said with a smile. I

can only put it that way. It’s better to send the patient away than to face Mr. Royden’s cold face every day.

“Alright. Proceed with the plan then.”

After saying that, Edgar walked toward Jean’s ward.

Upon arriving at the ward, he saw the Ludwig family gathered around the door. Farra was sobbing and yelling,

“Jean, please let us see you. We are very worried about you.”

“She’s deaf.”

Edgar strode over and blurted.

“That’s impossible!” Ben was not as agitated as before, but his expression was complicated when he saw Edgar.

Edgar sneered. “Otherwise, why won’t she respond despite you guys yelling like this?”

“No way…” Farra heaved a long sigh. “It’s okay. We’ll hire the best doctor to heal her.”

“Do you think you’ll be able to hire a doctor who’s more skillful than the ones I hired?” Edgar asked with eyes filled

with frigidity. “Her hearing is lost forever. Besides, the doctor said that it’s a hereditary disease.”

“What?!”

Ben clenched his fist as he staggered toward Edgar. He had a hunch that something was off.

“Your family can accept a divorced woman as your daughter-in-law, but can you accept her giving birth to a

disabled child?” Edgar blurted coldly.

Then, he grinned when he saw Farra’s startled expression. “Stop being a hypocrite if you don’t dare to bear the

consequences. Get out of my way.”
