Chapter 596 Holding Gregory's hand, I began to devour the deliciously aromatic dumplings he had made just for me.

As he fed me, Gregory laid down the law, "The doctor said you need to rest up properly. Once you're out of here, you're staying hwith Ramona. If you can't reach me, don't go wandering off anywhere." I nodded.

The storm was far from over.

For now, there was nothing I could do except try not to be a burden on Gregory.

I looked up into his red-rimmed eyes, "Why haven't you been answering my calls today?" "Been so busy, I didn't even have a moment to call you back." Hearing this, Gregory instinctively started to explain, but I sighed, "So, you've been too swamped to even grab a bite?" A smile played at the corners of Gregory's mouth. "Here I thought you were gearing up to givea hard time. Turns out you're just worried about me?" I snatched the soup spoon from him and fed him a dumpling before responding, "Why would I start a fight?" "I care more about your health than anything else." Gregory swallowed the dumpling and raised an eyebrow suggestively, "Don't worry, this body of mine will keep you happy for a long time." Somehow, the word 'happy' sounded so odd coming from him.

gave him a sideways glance, unable to help myself, "What's going on with the Ford Group? What's Klein thrown your way this time?" Gregory put down the dumpling, took a napkin, and gently wiped the corner of my mouth, "You don't need to worry about that right now. Just trust me, as always." "If he really pushestoo far, then..." I quickly covered Gregory's mouth, "Don't talk nonsense." Given the escalating tension and rift between him and Klein, whatever he was about to say couldn't be good.

His inability to answer the phone today was likely Klein's doing as well.

"You know we need to be mindful of prenatal influences, right?" "I know." Gregory, resigned, continued to feeddumplings, but I stopped him, "I can eat by myself, you should eat too." But Gregory insisted.

I smiled at him, "Thanks to this little one, even Klein has stooped to serve." Gregory gavea sidelong glance and chuckled, "When have I not looked after you?" It was hard to ignore the double entendre.

My cheeks heated up, and I quickly changed the subject, "I might not be worrying, but you could at least tellwhat's happened?" A shadow passed over Gregory's eyes, "Just dealing with a mole, that's all." "Why does it always seem like whenever there's trouble on my end, the Ford Group is also..." "Smart girl." Gregory praised me, though his eyes darkened.

I suddenly understood, "Does this have something to do with Klein and Pearl kidnapping Ramona?" Gregory nodded, "The head of the city hospital is an acquaintance of his." After finishing our meal, Gregory stepped out to take a call, givingthe chance to check on Ramona. Knowing I'd be anxious about her, Gregory had arranged for Ramona's room to be next to mine.

Ramona was still asleep when I approached, intending to tuck her in more comfortably, but then she grabbed my hand, murmuring something under her breath.

I leaned in closer.
