Chapter 144

Who Are You to Intervene?

Coincidentally, Gigi’s prenatal checkup was also at the same hospital. Just as Edgar reached the
gynecology department, he saw many members of the Reece family there. It looked rather serious, as
though she had a miscarriage.

Following the sound of the sobs, he saw Winnie supporting Gigi, whose tears flowed down her cheeks
continuously. “I can’t live without my baby! He’s our child! I must protect him!”

The doctor shook his head exasperated. “Please calm down, Ms. Reece. The prenatal check is still
ongoing. Please enter the room first.”

Unexpectedly, Gigi behaved as though she had lost her mind. “I shan’t! You’re going to kill my baby,
aren’t you? I bet you are bribed by that b*tch Jean!”

Edgar’s heart skipped a beat when he heard Jean’s name from her again.

He walked over to her and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Edgar!” Gigi’s temperament immediately changed when she heard his voice. Tugging on his sleeves
gently, she sniffed. “I was feeling unwell when I woke up this morning, so I came over to have a check,
but they insisted that something’s wrong. Edgar, our baby is so healthy! How could there be any
problems? They must have hooked up with someone on such a scheme!”

Winnie explained in a low voice, “She’s not been in a good mood over the past few days. It seems like
she’s triggered by something.”

Edgar frowned and informed the doctor, “Continue with the checkup. We’ll speak after the results are
out.” The more chaotic the situation is, the more I must keep calm.



Amidst yells and screams, Gigi was brought into the checkup room, while Edgar felt frustrated when he
turned around and looked at the Reece family.

Then, he walked away.

Behind him, Winnie tried to convince him to stay. “Edg– Mr. Royden, where are you going? Gigi is
going to be so heartbroken if she doesn’t see you later.”

His frown deepened upon hearing that, but he still walked to the elevator.

Gigi is pregnant with my child, so of course I will pay attention to her. But if her family keeps pressuring
in such a way, I can’t be rational toward them anymore. In fact, I can’t even recall how she got
pregnant. Was it during that night when both of us were drunk?

The more he thought into this, the more troubled he felt. In the end, he walked to a garden behind the
hospital to take a stroll.

However, upon reaching there, he saw several people decorating the garden with flowers and balloons.

“Ms. Eyer is such a fortunate woman; her boyfriend is so sweet and enchanting. I heard that after Mr.
Ludwig’s operation is over, he’s going to propose to her here. Oh, I’m so envious of their true love.
Neither of them even thought of deserting the other!”

“We need more red roses there.”

Proposal? After the operation, Ben is going to propose to Jean?

Unknowingly, fury surged through his veins as his Adam’s apple bobbed. Unable to help himself, he
took out his phone and called Jean.



Soon, she picked it up, but her tone was not pleasing. “Why can’t you just stay away from me? What is
wrong now?”

His gaze became colder upon hearing that. “You listen to me – don’t you dare to continue dating Ben.
Or else I’ll make the Ludwig family suffer the same consequences as the Eyers. Mark my words.”

“You are nuts, Edgar!”

She was buying something nearby, so she was about to walk past the garden to the hospital. From
afar, she saw his tall and slender figure at the staircases.

Gritting her teeth, she walked over and glared at him. “I can date whoever I want – that’s my freedom,
and you have no right to interfere.”

“I do.” He walked to her with a hostile, cold expression on his face. “I am–”

“Yes? What are you?” Jean could not hold back a snort. We are not related anymore. Who is he to give
me commands?

Sunlight fell on Edgar’s shoulders, but a gentle expression that Jean had never seen appeared on his
face. “I want to compete fairly with Ben,” he said slowly.

Jean frowned instinctively and took half a step back, shocked by his words.

“You are out of your mind.”

“Jean, don’t try to avoid my question. If Ben and I court you simultaneously, who would you choose?”
Even though Edgar was a person of an aloof nature, he had absolute confidence in himself when he
wanted for something.

Since such thoughts had already started brewing in his mind, he would achieve it.



Stubbornness was clearly revealed in his eyes at this moment.

Jean merely stared at him coldly. She had no idea where the courage came from, but she sneered,
“Ben, of course. I don’t usually take back the men I’ve ditched. On top of that, you cheated in our
marriage.”

“I didn’t,” he denied coldly.

Jean’s smile widened upon hearing that. “Edgar Royden, before my father could even rest in peace,
you brought Gigi to the funeral and made a scene there. Back then, both of you were already lovey
dovey. Yet you are telling me now that what you did wasn’t considered as infidelity?”

Edgar opened his mouth to retaliate, but a nurse ran to them from a distance.

“Bad news, Mr. Royden! Ms. Reece fainted in the room!”

Immediately, Jean acted as though nothing had come across between them and left decisively after
shooting a look of utmost indifference at Edgar, making the frustration within him rage on. Yet, at this
moment, he had to go to the gynecology department.

Both of them were already set in different directions, returning to a different partner.

Unbeknownst to Edgar, Jean walked up the stairs and came down again. Then, she asked for
directions to the gynecology department and went over.

I need to get some useful information as my bargaining chips.

Just as the doctor predicted, the results of Gigi’s prenatal check were not looking good. The baby was
not having a healthy development.



Looking at the report, she gently reminded, “If you decide to be intimate during the pregnancy, you
have to be very careful. It’s the best if you can try to reign in your desires. If you continue, the baby will
definitely be affected.”

Gigi’s face turned red instantly, but Edgar frowned. I’ve never even touched her ever since she got
pregnant. We only slept with each other once, and that was the time we got drunk.

His lips parted, but just as he was about to say something, she held his hand and caressed his fingers.

In a small voice, she said, “Let’s go back, Edgar.”

Initially, she only wanted him to care about her; it was out of her expectations that the doctor would
reveal this. At that moment, she was so embarrassed that she wished to duck under a hole.

Worried that her behavior might be exposed, she quickly pulled him out of the room.

Nonetheless, he slowed down his steps. “Did you hear what the doctor said just now?”

A chill ran down her spine as she felt his cold stare at her. Worried that he might be mad at her, she
explained in a low voice, “Edgar, sometimes I have some desires too, so I–”

With that, she looked at him lustfully and winked, thinking that he was unable to resist her temptation,
just like Andy.

Unexpectedly, he only did this out of responsibility. Without the pregnancy, he would not even cast a
second glance at her.

“You lied to me about the pendant, and now about the baby.” He gave her a cold appraisal. “Do you
really like me, Gigi?”
