“Isn’t it puzzling why I wasn’t hurt? I was clearly shot in front of so many people.” Seeing Jane Gardner looking at herself in surprise, Yi Ren Gu took off her hospital gown.
Only to see that underneath the clothes, Gu Yi Ren’s skin was smooth and neat without a single scratch, not to mention the robbing wound, was even less.
“You’ve calculated well, long before you called the kidnappers over, you should have put your bulletproof vest on!” Jane Gardner remembered that when Gu Yi Ren was “shot”, she didn’t show any obvious expression of pain, and she guessed that this should be the only explanation.
“I thought how deep your feelings for Zhong Jinghao were, but now it seems that it’s nothing more than that.”
“Who says I don’t have deep feelings for her? I’m willing to take a bullet or a knife for him, but if it’s for you, even if it’s just an act, I’m not willing to shed a single drop of blood for you.
In this world, there are only two people who can make me bleed for him, one is my father, and the other is brother Jinghao.” Gu Yi Ren took Jane Gardner’s mockery in her eyes as she sneered and put her clothes back on, walking towards her with a smile.
“I don’t need to prove to you what I can do for brother Jing Hao, what about you, since the person you love is Zachary Irwin, what can you do for him? You don’t know it yet, right, just a while ago, Zachary Irwin also checked into this hospital.
Do you think, if I ask my father to do something for me, will Zachary Irwin leave his life in Y?”
Jane Gardner naturally knew that just a moment ago, Rudolf Bartley had sent the fainted Zachary Irwin away, but she didn’t know that Rudolf Bartley had actually sent him to this hospital.
“What? Know you’re nervous? Trying to talk Zachary Irwin into transferring to a hospital? But in what capacity are you going to tell him? It’s pathetic, I don’t think you know yet, today, apart from the two men who were admitted to the hospital together with Zachary Irwin, there is also a woman, coincidentally, that woman is also known to you.”
Before Yi Ren Gu met Jane Gardner, she had never deliberately targeted anyone because, no one could take away what she wanted.
Jane Gardner was the first person who made her want to make a move, and she spared no effort in doing so.
“Are you done with your words? If you’re done, I’m going back.” Jane Gardner didn’t dare to guess who else had gotten close to Zachary Irwin’s body in the months she’d been gone as she stumbled out of Gu Yi Ren’s hospital room.
“Seeing as you’re no longer a threat to me, I’ll give you one last chance, as long as you’re willing to die in front of brother Jinghao, I can promise you that I won’t make a move on Zachary Irwin, much less come after you guys again.
Otherwise, even if you’re terminally ill, you shouldn’t blame me for being aggressive.” When Yi Ren Gu said the last four words, she was clenching her teeth.
Jane Gardner rushed out of the hospital room in one breath and sat directly into Windsor Castle’s car.
When the driver saw Jane Gardner come over, he looked at her in the backseat, “Second Young Lady, when you came out, you said that when you came out of the hospital, you still had to go to a place to deliver the dumplings, are the dumplings still being delivered now?”
Jane Gardner heard the driver’s words, and then looked at the maid rushing over to sit in the passenger seat of the car, she shook her head in the middle of the day, “No more deliveries!”
Originally, she was going to deliver some dumplings to Zachary Irwin, even though she had hurt him, she still wanted to do something for him.
Since he already had girls around him to take care of him, he shouldn’t have trouble eating.
Jane Gardner asked the driver to drive back to Windsor Castle, she looked at the pounding rain outside the car, and inside her mind, all she could think about was what Gu Yi Ren said in the hospital room.
“Miss, I’m Xiao Qing, congratulations, I saw the news in the newspaper, and I know that you’ve married your baron sir!” Jane Gardner returned to Windsor Castle when Xiao Qing’s number rang.
Jane Gardner looked at this familiar and unfamiliar number and answered the phone, only to hear on the other end of the phone, Xiao Qing’s voice was crisp and nice.
“Xiao Qing …” Jane Gardner also thought of Xiao Qing during this time, but she always thought she went home, not to mention that she would contact herself later.
After all, Mysterious Island was in the country, while she was in Y at the moment.
“It’s me, miss, do you know where I am now? I’m also in Country Y, and I’m relatively close to you, I’m currently taking care of a patient in the hospital, when I’m free later, I’ll come visit you.” Xiao Qing’s voice didn’t show a trace of dissatisfaction or emotion, but Jane Gardner just heard that Xiao Qing was blaming herself.
“How have you been doing all this time? Do you blame me for not visiting you after we parted from Mysterious Island?” Jane Gardner admitted that when she had just separated from Xiao Qing, she had been so self-conscious that she hadn’t bothered to ask Zhong Jinghao much about her news.
She truly thought that Xiao Qing was originally from H City, and after leaving her and Mysterious Island, she must have gone home.
“Miss is Miss, Xiao Qing is just a servant, how can she dare to make Miss miss? However, the reason why Xiao Qing is now able to come to Country Y is also all thanks to Miss’s blessings.” Xiao Qing’s voice was tinted with a smile, but it was a sneer and ridicule.
“Because of me? Who brought you to Country Y? Was it Zhong Jinghao?” Jane Gardner this time was completely heard that Xiao Qing was having a problem with herself, she still wanted to explain something, but Xiao Qing had already hung up the phone.
This night, Zhong Jinghao did not come back.
Jane Gardner received a message from Gu Yiren before she went to sleep, it was a picture of Zhong Jinghao sleeping on the sofa in her hospital room.
She didn’t know why Gu Yiren always came to show off in front of her, she turned her cell phone off and was ready to go to sleep, but remembering Zachary Irwin, she still took out her cell phone.
She wanted to give Rudolf Bartley a call and ask about Zachary Irwin.
But when she called, she was sure to give away the fact that she had remembered everything.
That night, Jane Gardner slept poorly, and in her dreams, it was all about everything that had happened today in the rain.
Zachary Irwin’s words seemed to echo clearly in her ears.
The next day, Jane Gardner woke up with a sweaty forehead, and her nightgown was soaked with sweat.
She lifted her legs and got out of bed, ready to take a shower, but before her legs hit the ground, her whole body unexpectedly spread towards the ground.
Didn’t Gu Yi Ren say that the first thing to go wrong with her body was her heart, followed by her limbs? Why was she starting to lose more and more strength in her legs?
“Second Young Lady, are you alright?” The maid happened to be outside sweeping to the hygiene, hearing the movement in Jane Gardner’s room, she pushed the door of the room open and helped her up.
Jane Gardner put away all the surprised emotions on her face, “I’m fine, I accidentally slipped just now.”
“But the room is carpeted, the second young lady …” the maid was puzzled.
“Can’t you slip if you’ve laid a carpet? I know you have a great relationship with Gu Yi Ren, but I’m only the wife of the heir of Windsor Castle nowadays, if I were to kick you out, do you think Gu Yi Ren would still want you?”
Jane Gardner knew that the maid was Gu Yiren’s person, and she didn’t want her to tell her about it.
Her voice was ghostly cold, clearly telling her to keep quiet about the matter.
“Second Young Lady, I know I’m wrong, please don’t kick me out!” The maid immediately begged for mercy, and Jane Gardner told her to back off, telling her not to tell anyone about this.
