Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 547

Reluctantly, Gigi Eyer rose from her hospital bed and continued to grumble, “You didn’t come to see me at all. You’re just here to aggravate me.”

She looked dissatisfied, but her hands were honest to grab the fried chicken on the table.

Jean observed her hand.

“Dr. Walterson said I can eat it!” Gigi Eyer directly stuffed the fried chicken into his mouth.

Julia forced a sideways smile. “Just leave her alone. She wants to die and has no desire to live. It would relieve us of stress and effort, as well as save us money, to no longer be responsible for covering her medical costs.”

Gigi Eyer had the odd impression that the fried chicken she was chewing wasn’t all that tasty.

Her face lowered.

Jean chuckled, “Don’t make fun of her, everything will be alright. Eat now, I’ll question Dr. Andrew about your ailment later.”

“There should be alternatives to transplantation.”

For a while, Gigi Eyer didn’t say a word and listened.

Her wrist scar had only recently healed, and even a small amount of forceful movement would rip the incision, giving her a faint tingling sensation.

She was constantly reminded of how tough it was to survive.

Just when Jean was about to summon Dr. Andrew over, a patient came from a different unit on the same level. He sprayed urine-filled water across Gigi’s door.

“A lady with such a heart belongs in the lowest parts of h*ll. She shouldn’t be admitted to this hospital at all!”

“Nobody wants to do a transplant on her. Even then, I’ll make sure to stop anyone who would do so.” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Awful words. One after another.

Julia covered Gigi Eyer’s ears. She cursed, “Have some sense and read the news! If you come here to make trouble, I’ll call the cops and arrest you.”

The desperate man took off running.

On weekdays, no one would stand up for Gigi Eyer.

It was also impossible for Andrew Walterson to stay outside her ward twenty-four hours a day. He frequently traveled to other wards, where individuals occasionally come to cause havoc without understanding what is going on.

Every time, Gigi Eyer’s mood would be affected.

She averted her eyes, “It’s useless, Auntie, they always…”

Dr. Andrew entered with a stern expression, “I have already reported to the hospital. He will be removed from the hospital tonight.”

“I, the attending doctor, still have this bit of power.”

Gigi was taken aback when she heard those words. She then smiled wryly, “What’s the use of driving one away?”

She is the best person to understand that Edbert used this as a tiny ruse to get the better of her.

They come to her one by one, and too many had been brought low by Sam’s company. For the rest of her life, she was free from any obligations.

She frequently had the thought of wanting to bury herself because of this sort of psychological strain.

“Dr. Walterson, let’s focus on matters at hand.”

Jean quickly recovered her thoughts, “I want to know if the previous donor was bought by Edbert?”

“This…” Andrew Walterson looked in Gigi Eyer’s direction. Originally, he didn’t want to talk about it face to face to avoid putting more pressure on her. Not clearing things would make the situation complicated.

“This scenario is quite likely. They made considerable promises on the phone but subsequently canceled the meeting and refused to return my calls.”

Being made in such a vile manner is just irritating.

Gigi Eyer has a chance to live!

Gigi turned her head to the side and looked at the fallen leaves outside the window, “You really don’t have to worry about my affairs anymore, I…”

“Edbert will be more pleased with himself the more you consider it. Is it acceptable to allow him to live blissfully and evade the law for the rest of his life?”

Jean regarded her face as she questioned her word by word: “You are now eligible for hospital discharge.

I can also offer you enough funds to let you purchase a sizable house in the countryside.”

“But are you truly ready to live there the rest of your days?”

No!

She had obviously not forgiven.

They wouldn’t have fought with Jean in the manner they did if Sam hadn’t passed away.

Gigi tried to contain her emotions as she asked, “I haven’t reconciled, so what can I do?” The patient cried, trying to keep her feelings inside.

Edbert had a solid background in Yorktown’s business community because of his long tenure there. Even after engaging him several times, Edgar was unable to stop him entirely from fleeing.

Gigi was aware of her limited time, but she didn’t want to burden Jean.

After all, she was expecting a child and had a chance to get back together with Edgar.

Gigi intended to draw Edbert into the ocean using Xena, but she had no idea that Edbert would be more brutal than she had anticipated. Even his own daughter could be mercilessly left behind.

“There will be a way.”

“At least, I won’t let you die like this, and I won’t allow Edbert to rest in peace,” Jean said, turning to face the person on the bed.

She turned on the wall-mounted TV after confirming the time.

Just in time for tonight’s business news.

“Everyone, there is word that Xena, the former vice president of the Royden Group, has psychological issues. Her father, Mr. Edbert, is avoiding reporters,” the reporter announced as she waited outside Edbert’s door with a microphone.

“Our reporter will continue to follow up…”

“He did it all by himself.” Gigi Eyer stared at the TV screen, “I’m sure!”

Jean and Julia exchanged glances.

“I agree, but none of the attorneys are interested in taking the case. They do not wish to interact with the Royden family or the Group. Through an earlier personal connection, Edbert was able to persuade the police to put the inquiry on hold.”

“We’ll just have to explore… other creative approaches.”

Gigi, Julia, and Andrew Walterson looked at Jean at the same time.

“How do you want to do?”

“Let him also taste the cost of betrayal.”

That night.

Edbert Royden was sitting at home and George rushed over to report. “The police are getting nervous. It is said that Xena confessed everything to them.”

“Impossible. She is ruled out as insane. The police and the court would not accept what she claimed, even if it were true.”

Edbert played with the rosary in his hand.

George said with a frown, “However, Jean brought a defense attorney with her.”

Of course, Edbert could not remain still and took George to the hospital overnight.

At the side door of the hospital, he was worried that this was a trap. The sly man ordered, “Head to the company with the driver, and I will go myself.”

George hesitated a bit, “But sir… You will be alone.”

“What are you worried about? I am miserable enough to act like a loving father.”

Edbert believed he was unassailable, even if a reporter arrived.

After all, Jean was the reason why his legs were paralyzed. He had that as collateral.

If you really wanted to pursue it, he would let them know that it would be the end of the fight with him.
