Edgar and His Destined Wife
Chapter 204

Chapter 204 Unknown

Dr. Roffe glanced at the doctors behind him. Then, he lowered his voice and explained to Edgar, "Ms. Reece contacted the hospital with her phone to ask for help. She found her consciousness wavering recently. It was as if someone had taken over her body. Thus, we suspect she was under a lot of pressure during her pregnancy, causing her to hallucinate."

Edgar's expression darkened considerably. On the other hand, Gigi widened her eyes and glared at Jean. No one was aware that Jean was holding Gigi's phone. Moreover, Gigi did not dare to say anything and could only watch as Jean put the phone into her bag.

The nurse helped Gigi onto a wheelchair. "Ms. Reece, don't worry. We will provide you with the best specialist to treat your condition." "Also, it is not unusual to experience this during your pregnancy, so don't worry. Please relax."

Gigi bit her lower lip. She could not say anything. Meanwhile, Jean stood up, went to Gigi's side, and commented, "What a pity. Ms. Reece is young and afflicted with such a condition. It seems one really needs to be careful during pregnancy. Otherwise..."

"Two lives are at risk, right?"

Jean was probably the one person who dared to curse Edgar child's life right before Edgar.

The hospital director saw the fury on Edgar's face. He gathered the courage to step forward and said, "It's only a small probability. Our hospital's psychiatric department has skilled specialists. One of them is standing by in the consultation room, waiting for your orders."

Edgar's expression darkened, and he raised his hand to silence the hospital director. "I want the result as soon as possible."

"Yes, Mr. Royden. Quick! Bring her to elevator number two."

The hospital director breathed a sigh of relief and rushed out of the room with most of the people in the room. Gigi continued to glare at Jean as they pushed her away. She grabbed onto the door and shouted, "I'm not insane! I don't need to see a psychiatrist!"

"Ms. Reece, those with psychiatric issues are always in denial in the beginning. You must have been under too much stress. Otherwise, why would you want to jump and kill yourself?" Dr. Roffe advised Gigi patiently. "You should cooperate with us for the sake of your unborn baby."

Then, he instructed the nurse to pry Gigi's hands from the door before forcing her into the elevator.

Jean smiled and looked at the sullen Edgar. "Mr. Royden, life is so unpredictable."

She had a look of pity, but her unconcealed glee annoyed Edgar.

Edgar forced down his anger and said, "Leave us."

Miles left the room immediately. Soon, Jean and Edgar were the only ones left.

"What did you do to her?"

Concerning what happened in the villa that day, Edgar witnessed it in person, so he believed Jean did not do it.

However, this time, he saw Gigi trapped on the balcony with her face pale from the cold. She seemed fearful and did not dare to speak.

Thus, he firmly believed Jean had done something to threaten Gigi while no one was watching.

However, he could not figure out what it was.

"Mr. Royden, I don't understand what you mean." Jean had a helpless expression. "I came here to visit her. What could I do? Perhaps Dr. Roffe was right. Your fiancée has mental issues." Edgar's expression darkened. "That's impossible."

"How can you be certain? I was married to a man who was a wolf in sheep's clothing."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Edgar pulled her arm forcefully.

The force made Jean bend into an uncomfortable position. However, she looked up, raised her chin, and smiled charmingly.

"Edgar, did I touch a sore spot?"

She did not fear him at all.

In fact, she did not even feel pain.

She tilted her slender neck as if she was a sacrificial lamb.

Edgar looked down and saw the disdain and coldness in her eyes. He slowly tightened his grip. With Jean being trapped in an uncomfortable posture, he only had to use a little more force to make her cry in pain.

He was determined to make her beg for mercy.

However, Jean remained fearless. She refused to back down or apologize.

"Edgar, you should kill me. Otherwise, get ready to watch as I make the people closest to you leave you one by one."

Jean was in pain, but she forced herself to bear with it and refused to surrender.

She did not care if she would lose everything and had to bear a mountain load of debt.

Since Edgar and Gigi wanted to see her beg, she was determined not to submit to them. Furthermore, she wanted to get Gigi confined in a mental institution.

She can stay there for the rest of her pregnancy period.

"Sure. You wish to die, right?"

Edgar forced back his fury and wrapped his hand around Jean's neck.

Jean could not help but frown. She bore with the discomfort and found it difficult to breathe. It felt like she was about to die.

Slam!

Someone opened the door from outside.

Miles rushed in anxiously and said, "Mr. Royden, Ms. Reece has fainted."

If not for the urgency of the matter, Miles would never dare to barge in.

Edgar let go of Jean's neck.

Jean choked violently and lay on the side of the bed, coughing hard. She gripped the bed sheet and felt as if she had narrowly escaped death.

Edgar looked at her pale face indifferently. "Bring her to the villa and make sure she stays there."

Miles bowed. "Yes, sir."

Then, Edgar left hurriedly. He glanced at her one more time before stepping out of the door. His gaze was cold and piercing.

Jean took a deep breath before standing up slowly, supporting herself by holding onto the bed. She had lost count of the number of times he nearly killed her. However, he never got through with it each time.

Jean limped to the washroom and splashed cold water on her face.

Her face reflected back in the mirror and looked haggard and pale. There was only a hint of redness on her lips.

Jean could no longer remember what she used to look like.

She bit the corner of her lip and took out Gigi's phone from her bag. She had taken out and saved the contents she needed.

The contents are interesting. Of course, I should keep it and use it slowly.

As for the phone...

She tossed it into the bathtub.

Then, Jean walked out casually and said to Miles, "Let's go."

She would not let another person get into trouble because of her.

Furthermore, Edgar was powerful enough to replace her no matter where she escaped. Thus, she might as well do what he wanted.

Moreover, she was in for a good show later.

Miles thought he would face opposition from her. Seeing that she was cooperating, he replied immediately, "The car is already at the door." "Thank you."

Jean walked out of the room without hesitation. She did not seem nervous at all.

Before entering the elevator, she heard nurses discussing Gigi's attempted suicide along the corridor.

"Could she be having depression due to her pregnancy? I heard Dr. Roffe even brought Dr. Wallace from the psychiatry department."

"The examination report should be out soon. I wonder what it would say."
