Pregnant With Twins: My CEO’s Tricky Love

Chapter 435 Fake Ex-Girlfriend

Georgia found that line especially warming.

Children were always so pure. Their eyes told the whole story.

She could feel that Wesley really did care for her.

Even though she hadn’t put too much care into Wesley after just interacting for these few days, but the child already had her in his heart. That really did move her.

Georgia reached out and took Wesley’s hand

“I’ve got it, Wesley. I’ll do my best to reach a hundred and watch you grow up healthily. Don’t worry too much either, you two. It’s really just a mild concussion. When you get a bit more knowledgeable, you’ll know that it’s really not that serious for me right now.”

As Georgia smiled, the two children’s expressions also slowly relaxed.

Elsie started complaining on the side.

“It’s really your luck today that that reporter only smashed you with the microphone. If he’d really been coming for your life with a billy club or a crowbar, how would you still be alive? The way I see it you need a few more bodyguards.

“Not only that, but you were too tolerant of those reporters today. I know you don’t want to do anything too impulsive in front of the reporters, but if it were me, I’d be like Miranda and I’d just up and tell those bodyguards to beat that reporter up. See if they have the nerve to approach you afterwards.”

Georgia laughed. She really had misjudged the situation.

She thought that having her bodyguards get violent in front of so many reporters – live – would have pretty huge impacts.

After all, acting first wasn’t setting a good image in plenty of situations.

She really hadn’t thought that a reporters would actually strike at her head. One thing Elsie said had been right.

If that had been a metal club, she might have died right there.

Or if they’d taken out a gun, she could have been killed as well.

“I was just thinking that I’ve been discussed too much on the internet. With so many reporters rushing at me today, it has to be malicious interviews, which is why I was careless. It’s not that I care that people are flaming me online. It’s that I think it’s a trap. My opponents are deliberately trying to make me look bad or to create chaos so they can write about more subjects. That’s why I held it in.

“Now, though, looks like I really might die next time if somebody tries this on me again. You’re right. I should be tougher, or maybe bring a few more bodyguards with me so they can’t approach, and today’s incident wouldn’t happen.”

Seemed like Georgia really was reflecting on what she’d done today. Elsie started soothing her.

“Don’t hang your head like a child. You just didn’t consider enough things on this. Just be tougher on them next time. But the people behind the scenes are the real villains. If we catch them, you have to have your people teach them a lesson. Don’t grow soft on them. Conniving bastards who do this won’t feel it unless you give them a few good beatdowns.”

“This hasn’t been cleared yet and Robert is definitely still investigating. I hope they show a trace. Otherwise, getting targeted from the rear is really unsettling.”

As Georgia said that, Wilson, standing close by, spoke.

“Normally, consider you’re out alone, several bodyguards would be enough to protect you. I hadn’t expected such a situation today. If they’re targeting you and sending a dozen, two dozen or more people to crowd around you, several bodyguards isn’t nearly enough. Miss Lane, I might need to adjust the bodyguard itinerary for each day. By then, I’ll show you the adjusted itinerary so you can take a look. If you don’t have any opinions on it, we’ll go with that arrangement from now on.”

Naturally, Georgia didn’t disagree. She really couldn’t let anything happen to her.

She had two children she needed to take care of, and Robert’s condition was still an unknown. She had to bear it. She couldn’t be the first to fall.

As the conversation went on, Ivan opened the door, and Georgia saw Robert come in.

Annie and Wesley spoke happily.

“You’re finally back, Daddy. We’ve been waiting for you forever.”

Robert walked over and picked the two children up, smiling, then kissed both of them on the cheek.

Afterwards, he sat down next to Georgia, holding her hand.

“Have you eaten yet? Feel sick anywhere? Has the doctor come in to check yet?”

Georgia answered each question one by one. She’d had porridge already, of course, or she couldn’t be up talking to the children right now.

“After I woke, the doctors came in and ran a simple check. I’m fine now. I’ll go through a full checkup tomorrow. If nothing’s off, I’ll be out tomorrow.” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Robert relaxed, while Georgia grew concerned.

“Is your mother awake yet? She’s fine, right?”

Robert’s expression sank. Georgia guessed instantly that she wasn’t.

“She’s not threatening you with death again, is she? If she lets off on that for a while, at least everyone can relax a bit. I don’t want to see you bear the burden of hurting your Mom. If you really can’t stay with us for this while, just spend some more time with your mother. I’ve got the kids and Elsie. I’ll be fine.”

“No, she didn’t. She’s awake a lot these few days, but lost in her fantasies most of the time and rarely sober. She’s in a daze again. In a situation like that, she won’t threaten me with dying. Don’t be so concerned about it. This time, it wasn’t that she threatened to die, but just that she was in such pain over my Dad. It doesn’t have too much to do with you. Don’t feel responsible.”

Georgia grudgingly relaxed.

For the next few hours, the kids stayed with her and chatted.

With Robert, Elsie and Wilson inside, Ivan went to go see his patients.

At a time in the middle, Jason and Miranda stopped by to look on Georgia and spoke with her too.

Knowing that Miranda was fine, Georgia loosened up and thanked her personally.

Time passed quickly tonight, and at eight or so, Georgia shooed them away.

“Annie, Wesley, you can’t stay in a hospital too long. There’s a lot of germs here. Hurry up and go back and rest. Stay with Auntie Elsie tonight, okay?”

The two children nodded obediently. Robert, on the other hand, was planning on staying with her in the hospital.

Finally, Elsie and Wilson brought those two kids back to the mansion under her name to stay.

That place was entirely for Elsie and Wilson now.

But she and Elsie did discuss something else. She wanted Elsie and Wilson to buy property in Robert’s district so they could all live in the same area.

It’d be easier to meet and take care of the kids.

After Elsie and Wilson left the hospital with the kids, there was just Georgia and Robert left in the room.

Robert told Georgia everything about what he’d found today, and also introduced Barney.

“You told me before that Travis’ investigation turned up a relation with the Warner family. This Barney fellow, Eliana and I were classmates before and had been linked closely. So I suspect it might really have something to do with Eliana. But there’s no direct evidence right now, and I can’t just pin something on the Warner family. Let’s wait and see if any new evidence turns up.”

Georgia’s instincts told her that it really did have something to do with Eliana. She couldn’t help put ask.

“Do you still remember what it was between you and Eliana? Outsiders think you’re exes.”

Robert turned serious and hurriedly denied it.

“Don’t misunderstand, Georgia. I asked Jason about it today. I’ve never been together with Eliana. I just don’t know what the reason was at the time for me not to dispel those rumors, but I was definitely never together with her. She’s not my ex-girlfriend.”

Robert’s nervous denial had Georgia chuckling.

She felt like Robert was really nervous about all this. Without any knowledge of the truth, outsiders might have mistaken Robert for being guilty and believed Eliana to be a really important woman.

But Robert had explained it to her before. Now she knew the truth, while he himself didn’t.

Georgia found that particularly funny, and couldn’t help but comfort him.

“Don’t be nervous. I know about you and Eliana. You explain it to me before.”

Seemed like Georgia knew more than he did about this fake ex-girlfriend.

Robert finally relaxed, but he was still curious.

“How did I explain it to you before? If Barney is doing these things because of Eliana, they’re targeting you. How could I have tolerated a woman like Eliana before, and let other people spread rumors that we were dating? There had to have been a reason.”
