Chapter 22
Chapter 22: This Is Edward's Baby
They're getting married. Isn't it normal to be pregnant?
Besides, she has long been divorced Edward Smith and that has nothing to do with her.
Alice Roberts, who squats on the ground, is lost in thought, so she doesn't notice that Joanna Hale turns white after seeing she hold that report. With a flash of panic, confusion and hatred moves in Joanna’s eyes.
Why does Alice Roberts wear a doctor's white coat? Is she a doctor in this hospital? She is holding up the report now, and she knows she is pregnant.
Once she tells Edward Smith about it, then...It will ruin everything
No, she can't let Alice Roberts tell Edward about it, and she can't give her any chance to meet Edward Smith.
Joanna Hale walks over Alice Roberts, bending down, and grabs the report from her with one hand which has beautiful red nails, saying condescendingly, "Excuse me, it's mine."
There is a pain in Alice Roberts' eyes, but she gets up and smiles, "I know."
For no reason, Joanna Hale feels uncomfortable when she sees Alice Roberts is calm, so she deliberately says, "This is Edward's baby!"
"Well."
Joanna Hale suddenly doesn't know what to say and stares at Alice Roberts with her arrogant eyes. "I didn't expect to see you here. Do you come back because Edward and I are going to marry?"
If it's so, then don't blame her for being cruel.
"You get me wrong. I don't care with whom he's going to marry, and I didn't come back for your wedding. And if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now." Faced with Joanna Hale's sarcastic face, Alice Roberts is afraid that if she continues to stay here, she would not be able to suppress her anger.
She will never forget that Joanna Hale and Janet Louis forced her to abort the child and to leave in that vicious way.
However, Joanna Hale stands in front of Alice and says coldly, "I warn you, don't approach Edward. He is mine, and I am carrying his child. Don't think he'll love you as before. Now I'm the only one in his heart, and I'm his wife! '
"Miss Hale, I think you make me wrong. Mr. Smith and I are strangers now. I don't want to approach him at all and just want to lead a normal life. Could you please get out of my way?"
The more Alice Roberts acts like this, the more uneasy Joanna Hale feels.
No one is clearer than her that how Edward Smith loved Alice Roberts before. Regardless of the opposition of the family, he established the SA Group on his own, which was the best proof of his love.
It takes her five years to make Edward Smith agree to marry her. She can't let Alice Roberts ruin it.
"My pregnancy is a surprise for Edward. I will teach you a lesson if you dare to blurt it out."
“Don't worry, I'm not interested in your business at all!" Alice Roberts says, word by word, and then walks away from Joanna Hale's side.
Joanna Hale looks at her back and frowns slightly. Alice Roberts looks very different from five years ago. She used to cry and plead weakly, but now she is cold and indifferent, as if she doesn't care about anything.
Well, she better not cares.
Joanna Hale puts the report into the bag and frowns, this matter must be dealt with as soon as possible.
When Julie Swift comes back, she finds that there is something wrong with the look on Alice's face. She sits closer to her with her lunch box and asks, "What happened? Are you tired?"
"No."
Alice Roberts shakes her head, looks at Julie Swift and asks with a faint smile, "How about you? What did the head nurse say?"
Listen to that, Julie smiles, "Nothing, the head nurse can't do anything to me except lecturing me.
Alice Roberts is relieved and nods.
"By the way, I've just heard that a powerful patient wants you to examine him. Are you ready?" Julie Swift asks worriedly.
"No problem." Alice Roberts replies with an easy smile.
Perhaps in some people's eyes it's strange for a woman to engage in urology, but actually it is a very common thing in foreign countries.
There are not too many female doctors in urology in domestic hospitals. So, she is very popular here as an urologist with her overseas experience.
It is a pleasure for her to have someone come by and want her to do the check.
They chat for a while, and then Julie Swift takes Alice to a VIP ward. The patient is the general manager of a big company, who is about 40 years old, well-maintained, and looks mature with majesty.
The patient is a little surprised when he sees Alice Roberts. The picture on the wall of the hospital is not very good, so he thought she was a woman over 30. But when he meets her, he finds she is a young and beautiful lady. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
"Hello, my name is Alice Roberts. I just came back from London. May I see your medical records?" Dressed in a white coat, Alice Roberts looks at the patient with calm eyes, she takes the notes handed by a nearby nurse, and studies them carefully.
The middle-aged man in the bed takes a relief because Alice is very professional,
At the same time, Edward Smith pulls the car over in the parking lot, he strides into Susie Sullivan's room directly but doesn't find Alice Roberts。
"Where is Alice?"
Looking at Edward Smith and thinking of Joanna Hale who just left, Susie says, "Mr. Smith, I am begging as a senior that I hope you can keep away from us. Leave my daughter since you will marry Miss Hale."
"Did Alice Roberts ask you to say that?"
Feeling the anger in Edward’s voice, Susie Sullivan quivers slightly, "No, it's my own wish."
"Auntie, this is between me and Alice, and I hope you can stay out of it."
Edward Smith turns around and leaves the ward, leaving Susie panting in the bed. She is upset with herself. If not for her health, Alice won't come back.
Edward Smith does not leave the hospital. It makes him angry that Alice Roberts dared to leave him early in the morning.
She could not leave him without his permission!
Besides, Alice Roberts won't leave as long as Susie Sullivan is here.
Edward Smith firmly believes and goes to the toilet. He glances at the doctor introduction on the wall when he comes out to the corridor, and then his face completely gets gloomy.
Alice Roberts is a well-known doctor who worked overseas and specializes in urology!!
She specializes in urology!
Damn it, is this what she did abroad for the last few years?
