Stop the Surgery
Jean was startled. The next second, she turned around immediately and wanted to push Edgar away.
However, Edgar’s body was above her; when she attempted to push him away, he drew closer to her.
Then, Edgar turned swiftly and put Jean on the operating table together with him. Jean squirted her
eyes as the light was blinding. Edgar pulled himself closer to Jean and blocked the light with his head.
Jean gritted her teeth. “Let go of me!” “No way.” Edgar’s eyes were glistening as he stared fixedly at
her face. “I’m afraid that I won’t have the chance anymore if I let go.”
Jean’s frown deepened. She was here to negotiate with Edgar, but the latter hoaxed her. “Mr. Royden, I
never thought you were this childish. Let go of me now. Otherwise, I’ll ask the others, so they know
you’re completely fine.”
Edgar hummed in response but did not let go of Jean. “Go ahead and yell.” At that moment, their
posture was intimate, so Edgar bet Jean wouldn’t dare to alarm the others.
“Let go of me first!” While struggling, Jean accidentally hit Edgar’s arm with her elbow.
Edgar winced as a sharp pain traveled across his body. He couldn’t hold this posture for too long, so he
had no choice but to release Jean and step aside with a pale look.
Only then did Jean realize that Edgar was indeed injured. Although his condition was not as serious as
what was announced to the public, he indeed went into a coma for one day due to the accident.
Edgar walked to the other end of the operating room and rummaged through the surface of the table.
“You know how to bandage, don’t you?” He passed a roll of gauze pad and a pair of scissors to Jean.
“We have to put on an act.”
After all, Edgar was supposed to undergo brain surgery. The others would definitely suspect something
if he left the room without any wounds.
Jean retracted her gaze and uttered coldly, “Do you agree with my condition?” Edgar smiled and
hummed in a deep, magnetic voice, “Sure.” Only then did Jean go forward to put a bandage on him.
Jean’s skill was blunt, and she would accidentally hurt Edgar throughout the process. Edgar had to
adjust the position of his head accordingly so that Jean could wrap the gauze around it properly.
Nonetheless, not only did Edgar not lose his temper, but he also seemed to enjoy the process. After
putting on the last piece of bandage, Jean stared at Edgar in a serious manner, “Don’t tell me your
brain is really damaged.”
Edgar supported his head with his hand and muttered, “Maybe. I’m still having a severe headache.”
“Stop pretending. I won’t be fooled by the same act twice.” After putting the gauze pad and scissors
back in their original place, Jean looked at the time and said, “A brain surgery should last at least two
hours. Wait here until it’s time.”
Just as she was about to leave, Edgar blocked her way.
“Excuse me.”
“Our business is not done yet. Aren’t you worried that you’ll lose out if you leave now?”
Jean gazed at him in confusion. “What do you mean?”
“You secretly put a camera in the floral basket you gave me. How should we settle that?”
Jean’s heart jolted. I should’ve known this guy is not a pushover.
…
Outside the operating room, Gigi was pacing back and forth and rattling in a fluster, “Oh my goodness,
why is it taking so long!”
From afar, a figure approached – it was none other than Andy.
“What brings you here?” Sam rebuked, “You’re not welcome here!”
Andy sneered. “Mr. Royden is undergoing brain surgery. Of course, I have to be here. What if his
surgery fails and he can’t pull it through this time? I have to get ready to take over the company.”
“You…” Gigi was ashen-faced, but Andy had a point – If anything went wrong with the surgery or Edgar
became in a vegetative state, the rest of her life would be disastrous.
I should have listened to dad and distanced myself from Edgar. Given the current situation, no other
men will accept me.
Gigi’s eyes fluttered as she averted her focus to Andy. The child is Andy’s, so is Royden Group in the
future…
She wiped away her tears and mumbled, “I’m going to the washroom.”
While walking past Andy, she cast a subtle glance at him.
Perceiving her intention, Andy grinned and caught up with her after a while. The two made out at the
narrow corridor for a while before Gigi fell into Andy’s arms; her forehead was covered with a layer of
perspiration.
Andy caressed her hair and bit her ear gently. “Why are you so dry? Didn’t Edgar satisfy you?”
Gigi sobbed pitifully. “He doesn’t care about me at all. Andy, I-I regret it now.”
Any man would be enchanted by her sweet and pitiful look except Edgar.
Andy cupped her face with his hands as his eyes glistened. “You finally think of me now that Edgar is
going to die?”
“He’s going to die?” Gigi was stunned. “What do you mean?”
I know brain surgery is risky, but what does he mean?!
At that moment, Andy’s menacing expression was frightening.
“Literally.” Suddenly, Andy leaned forward and kissed Gigi forcefully on her lips. “I’ve told you that I will
become the future owner of Royden Group. You didn’t trust me and insisted on clinging to Edgar. You
only come back to me now that you’re placed at a disadvantage. Gigi Reece, what else do you have
besides your body?”
“I…”
Before Gigi could say anything, Andy shoved her away emphatically.
“I’m not keen on someone Edgar is not interested in.” Andy snorted and wiped his hands in disgust.
“Please don’t go!” I’ll be doomed if Andy abandons me too. Thinking of her young child, Gigi pulled
Andy with all her might.
“I was wrong. Please give me a second chance, will you?”
Moments later, Andy’s voice which resembled that of a devil, came forth. “It depends on your
performance, then.”
Half an hour later, Gigi went back to the entrance of the operating room. Looking at the red signal
board, she bit her lips.
“Where did you go? The doctor came out just now and said his condition is not optimistic.” Sam sighed.
“If I’d known it, I wouldn’t have agreed on the marriage. You’re in deep water now.”
Truth be told, Sam was more concerned that Gigi had gone to a dead end. She had wasted all her
youth on Edgar and even bore him a child. Even if she wanted to cut ties with the Royden family and
marry another wealthy family for the benefit of Reece Group, it would be impossible.
Sam slapped his thighs in frustration. I’ve wasted my energy and money raising a good-for-nothing all
these years!
Perceiving Sam’s expression, Gigi was more affirmed of her thoughts. Andy was right. I have to think
about my own future. Sorry, Edgar. Please don’t blame me.
“Dad, I request to stop the surgery.”
