When Heidy arrived at the hospital, she took the flowers in her hands and came to check on Gavin.
She hadn't come to visit him again since he woke up. Thinking of her conversation with Hearst this
morning, she lowered her eyes. Eventually, she decided not to forgive him easily and started over
again. She was a little restless about something.
In the ward, Gavin was sitting on the bed and setting his eyes on the beautiful scene outside the
window. Taking a step forward, Heidy put the flowers in front of him and said, "Gavin, I come to see
you."
When Gavin heard the voice, he looked up at her in surprise. Then, as if remembering something, he
pretended to be calm and said, "You are here."
Heidy put the flowers in a vase. Then she sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "Gavin, how are you
feeling today?"
Gavin raised his chin in an arrogant manner, and said, "Of course, I won't be defeated by the
diseases."
Hearing his words, Heidy touched his hair and said in a spoiled tone, "Our Gavin is the best. After you
leave the hospital, I will take you to have a big meal."
Fixing his eyes on Heidy, who spoke excitedly in the bottom of her heart, Gavin felt warmth when he
heard that she said "Our Gavin". "Do you want to thank me for not wronging you? Although I hate you, I
am a good child. A good child doesn't lie," Gavin said, as if he just wanted to tell the truth and he didn't
try to help her.
Caressing his head, Heidy smiled lovingly, "I always know that you are a good child."
Feeling the warmth of her palm, Gavin's face turned red. He said arrogantly, "Don't touch my head. Or
else, I will not be able grow taller."
With a bright smile, Heidy said happily, "Your genes are very good. You will become a tall and
handsome man in the future. Gavin, I feel satisfied to see that you are healthy and strong. A few days
ago, I was really worried that you would not wake up. Now, nightmares are finally over."
When Gavin looked at her, he said, "Daddy said that Aunt Annie had used me. In this way, daddy
would think that you were a bad person. Well, I'm sorry..." Although he didn't want to call her aunt, he
couldn't call her as his mother.
Shaking her head, she replied calmly, "Nothing. It's all over. The most important thing is that you are
safe and sound. It was Annie who took advantage of your trust in her."
When Gavin thought of Annie, he lowered his head, looking extremely sad. Until now, it was still difficult
for him to believe that Annie wanted to kill him. Every time he thought of it, he felt a little sad. All of a
sudden, something came to her mind. Turning to her, he asked hesitantly, "Will you leave daddy?"
She looked at him in surprise. She didn't expect such an answer from him. Being stunned for a few
seconds, Heidy replied in a low voice, "Yes."
When he heard the answer, the smile on his face slowly faded away. He lowered her eyes and
entwined his fingers more tightly, with obvious loneliness.
Having noticed the change of his mood, Heidy put her hand on his shoulder and asked in a low voice,
"Gavin, what's wrong?"
Lifting his hand, Gavin pushed her hand away. Turning around, he said sulkily, "Leave me alone."
With her in the air, Heidy looked at him in surprise. Feeling his depression, Heidy said in hesitation,
"Gavin, don't you want me to separate from your father?"
Hearing this, Gavin raised his head and looked at her with his eyes turning red. "I didn't have my
mother before. Now I have my mother, but she abandoned me. You are bad. I hate you."
Looking at his red and obstinate eyes, she suddenly felt sorry for him. This child grew up without
mother's love, but now he still had to be abandoned. He didn't have a good childhood, did he? She
looked down at her belly and felt a heartache.
Heidy hesitated for a while. She took his hand and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Gavin. I was too
selfish. I never thought about your feelings."
Sulkily, Gavin turned his head away. Without turning to her, he puckered his lips in order to reveal his
inner feeling. Seeing that he didn't say anything, Heidy didn't force him and just held his hand.
The next day, Heidy was heading to the development area of Jing City. The construction of the
development area of the city would be completed in half a month. Today, Heidy went to make a routine
inspection of the project. She looked out of the window. In silence, she reminded what had happened
yesterday in the hospital.
The baby in her belly didn't seem to exist, but it was really alive. Imagining that after her child was born,
somehow, she felt sad. She thought of herself. Her mother passed away when she was little. In her
eyes, the word "mother" was strange.
Sometimes, there would be children laughing at her and saying that she had no mother. Therefore, she
fought with others. But she was too weak to fight against them. Every time they came home, she was
beaten black and blue. At that time, her father always told her that he would give her love more than
anyone could do. Then she met Jessica, who had studied judo since primary school. She always
protected Heidy from being bullied.
As she walked out of her memory, Heidy felt bitter in her heart. She asked herself, "Do you want both of
your children to go through what you had experienced when you were young?"
The car slowly pulled over. Assistant Chen tilted his head and said, "Boss, we're here."
The words brought her back to earth. She smiled and opened the door to get off. When she got out of
the car, she happened to see Hearst standing not far away and looking at her with one of his hands in
his trouser pocket. Astonishment was written all over her face.
Walking forward, Heidy looked at him coldly, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm going to inspect the Jing City project and see if I can earn my money back," said Hearst in a calm
tone.
On hearing this, Heidy said jealously, "It's a fair deal."
Knowing what she meant, he put his arms around her slim waist and said with a smile on his cold face,
"Of course, I have my wife and a baby." As he spoke, he walked inside with her in his arms.
Seeing this, Heidy was about to slap away his hand. But then, Hearst lower his head, squint at her and
slowly said, "Honey, I heard that some reporters came here today. Do you want people to feel that we
are having an quarrel? If they use it to make a scene..."
Heidy said nothing and stopped what she was doing. Seeing her with satisfaction, Hearst walked
forward with her side by side.
Half an hour later, after they finished the inspection of the Jing City project, they headed towards the
exit. "After the project is completed, the cooperation between the Hua Group and the J.Y Group will
come to an end," said Heidy quietly.
With his eyebrows raised, Hearst answered slowly, "No, we will see."
When they arrived at the entrance of the project, they saw two reporters waiting there. At the sight of
them, the reporter stepped forward and said with a smile, "Mr. Hearst and Mrs. Heidy, can we give you
a simple interview?"
Hearing him call her that way, Heidy was stunned for a few seconds and then replied politely, "Of
course." The Hua Group needed the support of the public opinion now, and she didn't want to offend
the media.
A reporter held a microphone. As soon as the cameramen were in position, the reporters began to ask
them some usual questions. Heidy responded with a big smile on her face, while Hearst just answered
some of his questions. Ten minutes later, the reporter put the microphone in front of Hearst and asked,
"Mr. Hearst, I heard that you invested the Jing City in the Hua Group when it was in a crisis. Does this
have anything to do with Mrs. Heidy?"
Hearst turned around to look at the woman standing next to him. With a smile on his cold face, he said,
"Jing City is a very promising project for our company. We believe that it has a bright future ahead. And
my feelings for my wife have nothing to do with the project."
"You've fallen in love with Mrs. Heidy at that time? Mrs. Heidy was Mr. Jack's ex-wife. Do you have a
relationship with Mrs. Heidy at that time?" the reporter asked pointedly.
Hearst laughed heartily and replied in a calm voice, "My wife is a principled person, unlike someone
who had an affair with others. Our relationship was established after my wife divorced."
The reporter took notes quickly and said with a smile, "Thank you for accepting our interview, Mr.
Hearst and Mrs. Heidy..."
Before the reporter could finish his words, Hearst reached out his hand to stop him. The reporter
looked at him doubtfully. Then, he saw only Hearst face to the camera and calmly said, "Today, I want
to announce something as well. We hoped to sign a ten-year cooperation agreement with the Hua
Group. All the project we take part in, the Hua Group will have privileges."
Heidy looked at him in surprise. A ten-year cooperation agreement? After a quick recording of the
news, the reporter said with a smile, "The union of the J.Y Group and the Hua Group will definitely
make a better development."
"Of course, my father-in-law had devoted all his life to the Hua Group. As the son-in-law, I will work with
my wife and maintain it well," said Hearst.
Heidy looked at him in a daze after the journalists left. After a long while, she said, "You shouldn't say
something about the ten-year cooperation agreement. The news will be widely reported by the press.
You won't have a chance to regret it at that time."
Holding her hand, he said with a smile, "What I said is a promise and I never regret it."
Hearing what he said, Heidy looked at him in astonishment, "Didn't you say that there would be no
husband and wife in the business? We'll have a ten-year cooperation. What do you know it will bring
great benefit to the Hua Group."
"Before I met you, I stick to that rules. After I met you, I wanted to change. However, what happened
when Gavin was in a coma was an exception." replied Hearst.
Heidy watched him silently. After a long while, she raised his head and said proudly, "Don't think I'll
forgive you for doing this. Only in your dreams." With that, she trotted away. She was wavering by his
words.
