Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 385 A Stalemate

Sam only showed up the second day Gigi was admitted to the hospital. Neither Gigi nor Sam was happy to see each other, especially when Sam noticed Jean was also in the room.

“Why are you…” Sam had just begun to ask when reporters swarmed in from the corridor. “Ms. Reece, can you answer a few questions? We are all curious about your condition!”

“Why did you faint in Mr. Royden’s home? Were you alone with him then?” “Did you see him because he got back together with his ex-wife? Did you faint from anger?”

The reporters kept firing questions without shame. What happened between the three of them recently was trending news. Thus, everyone wanted to dig up explosive news materials.

“Ms. Reece, did you suddenly faint because of Ms. Eyer?”

Sam had no choice but to hide his fury and put on a worried expression before facing the reporters. “Everyone, my daughter needs a peaceful environment to recuperate. She is still unwell, so please don’t ask her any more questions. Once the time is right, we will reveal everything to the public.”

“Mr. Reece, are you trying to hide something?” “Ms. Reece will lose the most once Mr. Royden gets back together with his ex-wife!”

“Are they as intimate as before? After all, Ms. Reece is his only publicly recognized girlfriend after his divorce.”

The reporters pushed one question after another and would not stop.

Sam said nothing but sighed. That was enough to piquet the reporters’ interest.

“We really can’t accept any interview now. I’m sorry.”

He acted the role of a loving father before the reporters. However, his expression changed immediately as soon as the door closed. He looked at Gigi lying in bed and ordered coldly, “Get dressed now and come home with me! Do you know everyone was waiting for you last night? How dare you run to Edgar’s house instead?”

Sam had organized a drinking party to introduce Gigi to a few older presidents of various companies. That way, he could negotiate a few business contracts and improve Reece Group’s financial situation. Then, he would no longer worry about the bank chasing him for debt payments.

How dare that b*tch disobey me?

Having suffered humiliation, Sam did not care that Jean was in the room and dragged Gigi off the bed.
