Chapter 71
Three days later, I set out again. It’s different from the last time. This time, I’m full of worry.
I’m not only worried that it won’t be as easy as last time for Edmund to fall into the trap, but also worried that it will be as useless as last time.
In fact, I have a lot of doubts about my infertility this time. The worst is, did Edmund get any hidden disease that would lead to infertility after I left?
Cedric saw me off at the door of the ward. He blinked his big eyes, looked at me and asked curiously, “Mommy, what are you going to do this time?”
“I’ll go and find some medicine for you. Once I find it, I can cure your disease. Stay here and listen to the doctor and nurse of Aida.” I caressed his little head lovingly and reminded him.
“Well, the new nurse is pretty and she doesn’t have a boyfriend yet. Mommy, don’t worry. I will listen to her.” Cedric’s eyes lit up as he said. He waved his chubby little hand vigorously and said, “Mommy, go home early. If you meet a gentleman as good as me, take him home early and let me have a look.”
“Umm…” looking at him, the corners of my mouth twitched. ‘is he really the son of Edmund and me?’? Why did he think about these things all day long? It’s not like us at all.
Lying in the City Y four star club, I tossed and turned in bed, thinking about how to carry out this plan.
I know Edmund is a cautious man. He won’t fall into my trap so easily.
The TV in the room was playing financial news. I was not interested in these things all the time and was bored to change channels with the remote control. At this time, a news caught my attention.
“It’s said that the King group and The Fisher group have joined hands to purchase the Jumper Hotel, a chain hotel…”
The background of this report was a picture of Edmund’s high spirited appearance at the financial meetings. He looked so energetic on the TV. It seemed that he really lived a good life without me.
just as I was thinking about what happened seven years ago, the door bell rang.
Thinking that the breakfast must have been sent by myself, I immediately jumped off the bed, put on my slippers and ran to the door.
Whe I opened the door, i saw a waiter bringing her food.
“Good morning, miss. This is your breakfast.” The waiter pushed the dining car into the room, and then took the plate out of the car and put it on the table beside. Then he picked up another plate placed by today’s morning newspaper and said, “have a good meal.”
Looking at the big picture of Edmund on the front page of the morning newspaper, which was about the King group and The Fisher group cooperating to acquire the Fisher group, The girl suddenly turned around and said to the waiter who was about to leave, “wait a minute…”
I was surprised to hear that Edmund had divorced three years ago and was not married yet. I didn’t expect that he had been talking about his dissipation in the past three years and he didn’t refuse any woman who was sent to him.
After dismissing the waiter, a bold plan suddenly appeared in my mind. I paid a detective to inquire about Edmund’s schedule.
At noon, I received a call from the president of the private detective. I knew that the investigation must have been conducted, so I immediately slid the answer button.
“Have you found out the truth?” I asked anxiously.
“Yes, as you expected, in addition to the content on the surface, there is also a secret transaction. I found that The Fisher group has prepared a model for Edmund in The Manche Club. The time is eight o’clock in the evening, in the presidential suite.”
“Well, you will be paid. But I still want to know the specific information of that model and her phone number.” I’m already planning for tonight’s action.
“Well… Miss Leanna, as you know, although we are private detectives, there are many things that are not so easy to do. You see…” he said hesitantly.
“I’ll give you another sum of money as a reward. I believe that it’s not a big problem for you, a private detective, to find a model. An hour. If you really can’t do it, I can ask someone else to help you investigate.” I don’t want to talk to him anymore. Now for me, time is money. I don’t have much time to waste.
“Miss Leanna, what are you talking about? Don’t worry. The information you want will be found in an hour.” He promised.
After hanging up the phone, I immediately changed my clothes, packed my luggage and walked out with it.
After checking out in The hall, I got on a taxi heading to the Manche Club.
The Manche Club was the most luxurious super five-star club in City Y. It was said that at the early stage of its construction, it was ready to apply for a six star club. But for some unknown reason, it was only evaluated as a five-star club in the end. Even so, it was still one of the best clubs in City Y, not one of them.
Because The Manche Club has nothing to do with the King group, I didn’t worry too much when I came here. At least here, I don’t need to worry that someone will recognize me.
I booked The room on the same floor as the presidential suite in the Manche Club. Led by a waiter, I walked into the elevator and went upstairs.
When I arrived at my room, the director of the detective agency called me again and told me the detailed information and contact information about that model. I took notes and hung up the phone.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
In the following days, I began to think about an excuse to persuade the model to give up the date with Edmund tonight.
As long as I can persuade that model not to come to the Manche Club, I will have a chance to replace her to complete this “deal”. I have even thought about it. After Edmund enters the room, I will wait for him on the bed and turn off the light of the room
This plan is flawless in my mind. I think as long as I have sex with him successfully, I will run away like last time and never appear in front of him again.
As long as I think that Cedric will be saved and live a happy life like an ordinary child, I feel that I have high morale at the moment.
After making up several reasons in my mind, I still can’t find a better way.
A model could sell herself, which meant she needed money, or rather, she loved money very much.
Besides, I’m not familiar with this model’s name, , which means that this model is not popular, and her current position in the circle should be half popular.
If I pretended to be a paparazzo to threaten her, she might not be afraid, and might even hype it in the name of Edmund, which would make things worse. It seems that I have to use my last resort.
Since she could sell her body for money, she must give up on selling herself for money.
Thinking of this, I didn’t hesitate anymore. I immediately took out my phone and dialed the model’s number.
It was a man who answered the phone.
“Who is it?” Her voice was unfriendly.
Hearing this voice, my heart trembled. Is this the agent of the model? Thinking of this, I immediately asked, “Hello, I’m looking for Iris. Is she there?”
“She is taking a shower. Who are you?” She restrained her unfriendly tone a little and became polite.
“Then you are her…” I felt that her tone softened a little, so I asked tentatively.
“I’m her boyfriend. What do you want from her? Who are you?” He seemed to be very curious about my identity and continued to ask.
As soon as I heard the man’s identity, my eyes lit up. I stopped thinking about buying Iris off at double the price, Then I cleared her throat and said to the other party: “Really? Iris has a boyfriend? Why haven’t I heard from her? I thought she was single. She used to ask me to introduce rich men to her. It seems that she must be kidding me. I had made an appointment to introduce a young man to her tonight, but it seems that she won’t come. Please tell her that the appointment with Mr. Edmund tonight is cancelled and she doesn’t have to come. Goodbye. ”
After that, I hung up the phone without waiting for his response.
I thought everything was over and I began to plan for tonight’s event. But not long after I put down my phone, it rang happily again.
“Hello.” After greeting the other end of the line, I immediately heard the voice of the other end of the line. “I’m Iris. Who are you? Just now, it was you who called me not to go to The Manche Club tonight?”
When I heard this, my heart skipped a beat. Was my plan seen through?
I have to bite the bullet and say: “Yes, I’m The Secretary of Mr. Edmund. The man who answered the phone just now is your boyfriend. In order not to make your boyfriend misunderstand anything, I asked you not to go to the appointment tonight. In fact, our CEO has another appointment tonight, but you can continue to ask The Fisher group for the reward he promised you. Our CEO doesn’t want you to let the Fisher group know that you are not together tonight. Do you understand?”
“Oh, I see. Well, I know what to do. Tell your CEO that I will keep it a secret for him.” Then he hung up the phone.
Everything went well. After I pretended to be Iris and Edmund for a one night stand that night, I immediately rushed back to Barcelona.
Seven days later
“Really? Are you sure? I… pregnant? Is there any test wrong?” With the laboratory sheet in my hand, I looked at the intern in front of me in surprise and asked.
“Yes, you are indeed pregnant for a week. At present, your physical condition is normal. Be careful, your baby will be born next spring.” The intern said to me with a smile.
I nodded hard and went upstairs to the Department of Hematology with the test report.
When I handed the test report to Aida, the attending doctor of Cedric, Aida also smiled with relief. “Congratulations! You are a great mother. Cedric can be saved.”
“Aida, I’m very happy. You don’t know how much I’m looking forward to the birth of this child.” I laughed so hard that tears streamed down my face. Since Cedric was diagnosed with leukemia, I have been looking for a way to cure him. Once upon a time, I was so desperate that I even hoped to trade my life for his life. Now, I finally find the “medicine” to treat Cedric. How can I be unhappy?
“God bless you and your child.” Aida said as he drew a cross on his chest.
“I’m going to see Cedric.” I can’t wait to share the news that Cedric is saved with him. Then I left the doctor’s office and walked towards the ward.
As soon as I arrived at the ward, I heard a loud cry, which almost made the whole hospital tremble.
The nurse was giving Cedric an injection. After she left, there were only sobs in the quilt. I comforted him immediately.
“Baby, don’t cry. It’s not painful now, right? You need an injection to recover, right? Don’t cry…”
As a result, my comfort was useless. Moreover, he was crying for father.
“baby, don’t be so noisy. Let me tell you something happy, okay?” I immediately changed the topic.
“What’s the matter?” He sniffed and stopped crying.
“Mommy is pregnant. your disease will be cured. Is this good news? Are you happy?” I looked at Cedric with a big smile, hoping he could give me a big smile.
However, when he heard this, he only stared at my belly with his eyes wide open. Then he poked my belly with his fat finger and said, “is there really a little baby inside? Ask him to come out to play with me. Call him out.”
“Well… Well… The baby hasn’t grown up yet. He can’t play with you now.”
