Chapter 306 No Way to Say Goodbye

The man's eyes darkened, "Did you change your mind?" Gigi squeezed out more tears, "I didn't know that it was Jean who saved me when I needed blood. I must return the favor. I was too overwhelmed and scared just now.

I just gave birth, so I need the care more than anyone else." Gigi wanted to use the baby as an excuse, but when she thought about the baby's features, she swallowed her words. She didn't want to bring up something that would upset Edgar.

"Mr. Royden, I'll give you time to consider the surgery." The doctor said this and left with the nurse. Gigi blinked and asked in a soft voice, "Is Jean's condition serious?"

I hope it is. Edgar only looked at her without saying anything. "Mr. Royden, I got the news." Miles hurried over and was about to report to Edgar but stopped when he saw Gigi at the scene. "Speak." Edgar ordered in a cold tone as he had a guess what it was about. Gigi pretended she didn't care, but her heart was jumping wildly.

"Andy was poisoned after being questioned by the police. He was sent to the hospital to get his stomach pumped just now. If that is indeed the case, he can apply for bail when he awakens." Miles stated. If that was the case, the investigation would go on longer, and it would be harder for them to get evidence. Most importantly, Andy might use this opportunity to flee the country. By then, it would be hard for them to use the law to prosecute him.

Also...

Edgar immediately replied, "Get the car. We're going to meet the lawyers."

Gigi stood where she was, not saying anything.

Edgar took two steps forward and then turned back to look at her, "Stay away from Jean."

He had given Gigi a chance when he went to ask her for help, but since she did not take that chance, she couldn't blame him for acting like this.

"...No, Edgar!"

By the time Gigi could react, it was already too late. Edgar had already entered the elevator.

Gigi slowly fell into a chair, and her pupils trembled, "What should I do now? It's all because of that sh*tty excuse of a man, Andy Shaw, that I'm like this now." She had posted a picture of her baby on the Internet and even got Linda to get her a new makeup artist.

But it was all for naught.

Ben was watching over Jean when he heard some sounds. He went to open the door and saw Gigi sitting outside. His face immediately fell.

"Mr. Ludwig, please let me see Jean. I beg you! I really just want to see her. I need to see her." Gigi begged.

Winnie was right. The only person that can save me now is Jean. No one else but Jean can change Edgar's mind.

Ben blocked the entrance and sneered at her, "Ms. Reece, why would Jean want to see you? Who are you to her?"

"I'm..."

"Jean had to be admitted to the hospital after donating her blood to you. But you did not even want to help her out a little. Now that she is out of danger, you come and say that you will donate your blood. Do you think you're doing her a great service?"

I can't believe she wants to take credit for other people's actions. She really wishes.

Gigi bit her lip and awkwardly said, "That's not it. I was taking care of my baby upstairs, so I couldn't leave. Let me in, I want to personally thank Jean. She is my life savior. If it wasn't for her, my baby wouldn't have a mother."

Gigi's words sounded very touching and heartfelt. Unfortunately, Ben wasn't someone that would fall for these kinds of tricks. He was only kind towards Jean.

"Leave. She doesn't want to see you." He said and then shut the door.

"I'm doomed. I'm so doomed." Gigi mumbled to herself.

Ben turned around and saw that Jean had regained consciousness and was staring at him.

Ben frowned and walked over.

"Did you hear all that? You shouldn't have helped her. She is such a heartless b*tch. She is even worse than her father."

Jean lowered her eyes and said softly, "I didn't do it for her."

She had gone to the blood donation center to say goodbye. She didn't know that the heavens would play a joke on her.

She chewed on her lower lip and asked in a quiet voice, "Has she left?"

"I don't know." Ben replied without thinking. He did not want to waste time thinking about someone like Gigi.

Jean slowly clenched her hands, "Let her in. I want to see her."

"See her? Why would you want to see her? Even I can guess why she came here. She obviously wants to play the pity card and get you to let her have Edgar. But you guys aren't even involved anymore." Ben did not understand what Jean was thinking.

It might have been like that in the past. But now, things were different.

Jean slowly closed her eyes and pleaded, "Ben, help me out."

A few minutes later, the door opened.

"Go in." Ben moved aside, but he wouldn't leave the room. He fixed his eyes on Gigi, scared that she would hurt Jean.

"Jean, thank you for saving me." Gigi took a few steps forward. She looked her Jean with eyes that she had rubbed red.

Jean merely stared back at her. Her eyes were so dry; it was like there was no soul in them.

She had asked the nurse after her donation because the compatibility between their blood was too high. She and Gigi were blood-related, but she did not know which parent of hers cheated on the other.

Or...

Jean frowned slightly. She spent a long time thinking and then finally asked, "Is the baby healthy?"

"Yeah." Gigi nodded her head sadly.

Perceiving her unhappiness, Jean pursed her lips and then directed her next words at Ben, "I want to drink some water."

Ben knew she wanted him to leave, so he sighed and said, "Okay, I got it."

He left the two in the hospital room alone.

Jean clutched her blankets tightly. She wanted to reach out to touch Gigi, but she didn't dare to do so.

"You..."

Gigi interrupted her and cried out, "Jean, I beg you. Please leave Edgar to me. I've even given him a child. Even if there is no place for me in his heart, he has to stay with me because of the child. But if you keep appearing in front of him, he will never look at me."

The blood flowing through Jean's body froze. The last bit of warmth in her eyes fizzled out.

"Did you come to look for me to ask me of this?"

Gigi couldn't contemplate the look in Jean's eyes. She slowly nodded her head, "I can only come to beg you. I beg you, please. I will listen to any condition you have."

Jean turned more emotionless as she watched Gigi begging earnestly.

Gigi's head was lowered to portray a pitiful character. She did not dare to look up at Jean. She kept crying.

"Jean, please help me out. I must have Edgar. Even if I can handle it, my child is innocent. He's so young and so adorable. I can't let him grow up without a father. That wouldn't be fair to him!"
