Chapter 356 – Sudden News

Book:The Selfish CEO Published:2024-6-2

Since knowing 5% of the stock, by Jerry Xiao got his hands on it, he began to worry about her, frantically calling her phone, but delayed to contact her people. Unexpectedly, in the end, waiting for the news that she was hospitalized in a car accident …
“I might …” Her fingers, tightly hooked around Sea Gu’s. “Can’t get to work …”
“Don’t be silly, now you are still talking about going to work or not! Don’t worry, in the future, when you’ve recovered, you can go to work whenever you want. I’ll let you sit in whichever position you want!” He gently ruffled her messy hair on her forehead. Fingers, vaguely trembling.
She smiled, a tear slipping from the corner of her eye.
Owen Baker turned his eyes sideways, unable to look. Instead, he heard her, huskily, speak softly, “Brother, where are KK and Nini? They didn’t come?”
“Uh-huh. I don’t dare to tell them, I’m afraid they’ll worry. Don’t worry, there’s Li Ma and the others looking after the house, there’s absolutely no problem.”
“Hmm.” She grinned, “Thought I’d give them another sibling, looks like … I’ll never get the chance again …”
Sea Gu and Owen Baker, both speechless for a moment, could only hold her hand tighter and encourage her with their eyes.
She smiled away and looked at them very calmly and serenely, “Don’t worry about me guys, I’m really fine. I’m not in pain …”
Because, it hurts too much to know what pain is anymore …
The more she did so, the more difficult it became in their hearts. Sea Gu didn’t hold back in the end and raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corner of her eyes, scolding her with a smile, “Fool. Still comforting us!”

“Zoey!” Jerry Xiao exclaimed, waking up abruptly from the nightmare. On his forehead, cold sweat beaded … “President!” Ah Feng hurriedly stood up.
“Where is she, where is Zoey?” Jerry Xiao caught him and asked immediately.
“President, take it easy and lie down first. You are in poor health now!” Feng tried to hold him back down on the hospital bed, but he just held on to him stolidly.
“Zoey, what’s going on? You tell me where the hell she is now!” He couldn’t calm down at all …
“I heard that Secretary Baker’s life is no longer in danger, but the condition is not very good either.” Ah Feng pursed his lips, a face of regret, “The child is gone, and … according to me to ask the doctor, it is a broken fallopian tube, in the future, if you want to have another child, it is difficult.”
Ah Feng’s words caused Jerry Xiao to take a step back in shock and fall into the hospital bed behind him in a state of disarray. The look of an overly stricken face made it almost unbearable to see.
It was like a hole in his chest, expanding little by little, and the pain was so intense that he could barely stand to fall back down again.
He and Zoey lost their baby … just like that …
And, never again …
Is it possible that the heavens did this to him in order to punish him for once trying to kill his own flesh and blood with his own hands? Let him hurt like this, let him regret so much that he can’t kill himself …
But …
Why do you want all this pain to fall on Zoey?
He couldn’t bear it, so how could she? How could she bear this cruel truth?
The thought of her caused a huge pain in his heart. He suddenly stood up and walked out. A pain in his arm, only then realized that he actually still hanged the drip, there, because of the previous force of the needle deflection, has already bruised a piece, shocking.
But he was oblivious, and with a pursing of his lips, he pulled the needle out almost without hesitation.
“Mr. Xiao, you’re not completely well yet!” Ah Feng was startled by his movements and hurriedly stopped him. If he went out like this, he could aggravate his condition at any time.
“Fuck off!” He made a move to paw away from Fung, his fingers stiffening.
“President. You won’t be able to see Secretary Bakereven if you go now!” Afon tried his best to persuade him, “They stopped me even when I went!”
He couldn’t hear it and didn’t want to hear it. Right now, he just wanted to go see her … even for a second …
“Secretary Baker is upstairs in room 5302.” Feng couldn’t bear to stop him again after all.
Zoey closes her eyes and falls back asleep. Out of the corner of her eye, a teardrop hangs, falling slowly as she closes her eyes, shattering on the pillow.
Owen Baker brought a glass of lukewarm water and dabbed it on a cotton swab, gently pressing it against her pale and chapped lips. Sea Gu was talking to Sam Baker and Yami Hu outside the door.
“Thank goodness you guys are here, otherwise, I really don’t know how to comfort my daughter here.” Yami Hu reddened, “What a bitter child …”
Sea Gu didn’t utter a word of comfort, just drew tissues and handed them over silently.
Yami Hu thanked her and glanced at her husband, thinking about the sold shares, tears fell more momentarily, “Zhen Guo, you’d better go back to the company first.” The board of directors would convene at any time, and by then, the river and mountain would have changed hands, and everything would have changed.
Sam Baker’s fists clenched tightly as he glanced at his wife and then at his daughter in the hospital room before nodding slightly.
Jerry Xiao’s tactics are undoubtedly despicable, but this is the business world. The struggle in the business world is never full of smoke and blood. Just, everyone will one day, for their own sins, pay the price! As, he.
“You should come back with me and try to calm the children. If you sit here and cry all the time, you’ll only make Zoey panic. Owen and Morninghaven will have to come out and comfort you later.” Sam Baker looked at his wife.
Yami Hu knew her husband had a point, but she didn’t feel comfortable leaving, Sea Gu hurriedly assured her, “Auntie, Uncle, don’t worry, Owen and I will take good care of her, we will keep you informed if anything happens. We will keep you informed if anything happens. You’ve been here for dozens of hours, don’t let your bodies get worn out.”
Yami Hu nodded, “I’m relieved to have you guys around after all.”
Sea Gu sent the two elders away and came back again when he saw a familiar figure appear on the promenade from a distance. He was anxiously looking for the ward number. At this moment, Jerry Xiao, not the slightest bit of the previous day’s vigor, hair slightly disheveled; body of the white hospital gown, lined with his face more and more pale; feet and even just a pair of slippers. Lost soul appearance, very some woeful.
His footsteps, outside the door of No. 5302, paused. And then, the hand slowly raised, seems to knock down, but, then paused, dead squeeze.
On his face, a flash of sharp pain, as well as, endless chagrin, assailed him.
Looking at that figure, Sea Gu only felt that the fire that had been held in his chest for a long time sprang up at once. He took one step and two steps to cross up, from the back, all of a sudden twisted Jerry Xiao’s back collar. Obviously, he was unprepared and was twisted by this and turned around unawares.
“Bang–” a heavy punch swung on that face. jerry Xiao’s face was turned away, and a thick taste of blood immediately welled up in his throat.
“That’s for punching you for Zoey’s five percent share!” Sea Gu gritted his teeth.
Jerry Xiao, still standing straight and too calm to look at Sea Gu, spoke, “I’m going in to see her.”
“And you deserve to go in and see her?!” Sea Gu swung his fist, angry to the extreme. Another punch, ferociously swung on the other side of the face. Jerry Xiao could have dodged, but, he didn’t, not even, not even a muffled grunt …
“This punch is for uncle and auntie to beat you up!” Sea Gu clenched his teeth and squeezed his fists to the point of ‘clicking’.
Jerry Xiao’s body was all tense and taut, only standing there stolidly, halfway, opening his lips, “I want to see her.”
Voice, dry and astringent, as if mixed with thick and repressed emotions. Yet it was so insistent and firm.
Sea Gu’s anger was provoked to the extreme, picking up Jerry Xiao’s collar and throwing his entire body heavily against the wall. Raising his hand, he slammed another fist over.
The corner of Jerry Xiao’s lip, oozing blood, he did not move to wipe it off.
Sea Gu took a step back and spoke again, his voice as dark as Jerry Xiao’s, “This is a fucking punch for your child that will never come back! Jerry Xiao, remember, you’re the one who denied her the right to be a mother!”
His face, whether it was pain or not, he couldn’t feel it at all. All he knew was that the sharp pain in his chest made it almost impossible for him to straighten up.
“Enough? Get out of the way if that’s enough!” He looked at Sea Gu coldly, barely standing up, about to walk into the hospital room.
The door to the hospital room was pushed open from the inside, and Owen Baker stood in the doorway with a hostile aura. Not waiting for Jerry Xiao to approach, he twisted his collar with one hand and pushed him down on the cold wall.
Jerry Xiao didn’t put up a fight. All of this, he owed Zoey …
“Jerry Xiao, you are despicable!” Owen Baker gritted his teeth in pain, his violent aura seemed as if he wanted to kill Jerry Xiao. But he could only suppress that hatred, “You don’t deserve to be the father of a child at all! Not worthy to let KK and Nini call you daddy!”
Jerry Xiao was shaken. His eyes were deep and locked tightly on Owen Baker, “What do you … mean?”
“Beaten silly, aren’t you? Listening to Zoey, you actually suspected that the kids were mine. I’m telling you right now that nothing ever happened between me and Zoey! I’m not nasty and mean like you, and I can take advantage of people!”
That night, when Zoeylike that appeared in front of his eyes, he admitted that he really could hardly hold on. Even when Zoey’s lips came to him, he really did think, “That’s it! Just go with the flow and let things happen. But …
He simply couldn’t do it! Just the thought of her waking up early the next morning in pain, sadness, and having an emotional breakdown made him feel panicked. What scared him the most was that he was afraid that they could neither be lovers nor retreat back to the position of brother and sister, and that each other would be reduced to awkward strangers in the end.
Therefore, he endured, desperately pushed her away. Just for the sake of not regretting it in the future; just for the sake of being able to keep protecting her peacefully in such a rightful manner.
Jerry Xiao was like violently come to life, the next moment he grabbed Owen Baker’s collar in reverse, the force was so strong that it was scary, “I’m asking you, just now when you said that, what did you mean? What do you mean KK and Nini don’t deserve to call me daddy!”
His heart, was trembling uncontrollably. It was as if, something that had been kept hidden was about to cry out.
Owen Baker looked at him mockingly, as if he were looking at a big joke. “That’s right, it’s what you think! Those two kids are yours! Zoey had them for you! You’re lucky to have met my stupid sister, the only one who would sneak in a baby for a scumbag like you and sneak in a baby this big!!!”
Jerry Xiao was shocked on the spot by this sudden news.
Before he had time to sort out how the two children came to be, he was wrapped up in that heart by a great surprise. It was unimaginable that those two adorable children were actually his! Zoey had given birth to them for him!
