章節 5: Chapter 5 Bankrupt
Pay for her loss with a child?
How to do that?
Jazmine suddenly felt the idea absurd and pathetic.
"Giancarlo!" Jazmine's voice was choked with sobs and disbelief, and her arm was bleeding. "Do you want me to give birth to a child for her?"
Before this, Jazmine had thought it was just Yoselin's sarcasm.
But today, when Jazmine heard it from Giancarlo, she felt her heart was ruthlessly stabbed by a knife.
Giancarlo actually thought so.
He really wanted Jazmine to give birth to his and Yoselin's child.
But why should Jazmine do that?
"I already agreed to divorce. Now, you don't have the right to curtail my freedom!" she snapped as she looked at his back.
But the back froze as he coldly sneered, "You want the Gardner family to pay for your debt?"
After saying that, he left without any hesitation or reluctance.
The room was a mess, and the bodyguards with stiff and ugly faces were left. Those people whispered, "Ms. Gardner, please excuse us."
They went forward and held her like a prisoner, taking her directly back to the villa.
The wound made her arm numb. As if having lost her soul, she was at the mercy of the bodyguards.
The villa sent back was her wedding room, the place where she had enjoyed living with Giancarlo for a long time, but now it had become a cage.
"Ms. Gardner." A bodyguard opened the car door respectfully and looked at her arm with pity. "Why don't you get your wound dressed first?"
Some minor wounds had long dried up, but her deep wound was still bleeding. It dyed her clothes red and made her look a bit creepy.
Jazmine numbly averted her gaze and laughed at herself. Even if she had been dead, Giancarlo would only have found her troublesome.
He wouldn't shed a drop of tear for her.
In the corridor, Owen reported his work in a low voice.
After that, he looked at his boss hesitantly and said after a pause, "Mr. Tapia, Ms. Gardner has been sent back."
Noticing Giancarlo was emotionless, Owen didn't know what he was thinking but still said, "Ms. Gardner is injured, and she was sent to the hospital last night because of an emergency. It seems she is not in good health."
When Owen said that, he kept observing Giancarlo's mood.
Unfortunately, no other emotions could be found on his handsome face. He seemed to be calm and cold.
Giancarlo acknowledged. His eyes were indifferent. His hanging hands were slightly clenched, his Adam's apple was bobbing, and his voice was hoarse. "Keep a close eye on her and don't let her go out."
Owen froze and wanted to say something, but in the end, he had no choice but to endure it.
In the past four years, he had witnessed how Jazmine sacrificed her dignity and followed Giancarlo all day long. However, she got nothing in the end. What a pity!
"Giancarlo?"
A soft voice suddenly came from inside the room.
Giancarlo turned around and went in. His sharp eyes once again carried a bit of warmth and patience. He was a completely different person from before.
Only Owen was left standing in the same place. Looking at the couple in the room, he suddenly felt sorry for Jazmine. Yoselin, who was in the room, had only scratched her knee a little, but Giancarlo went through a lot of trouble to treat her wound.
But the woman who was seriously injured...
Inside the room, Yoselin gripped the sheets. Looking at the person who came in, the smile on her lips was perfect. "Giancarlo, what were you talking about just now?"
Her soft voice was like a question or a test, and she sounded like a spoiled child.
"It's nothing. It's just a small problem at the company." Giancarlo reached out and rubbed her head lovingly.
However, Yoselin's lowered eyes flashed with a bit of viciousness. Her grip on the sheets tightened. "Then... what about Ms. Gardner? Actually, there's no need to insist on having a child. I'm not..."
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted.
His voice was deep, as if he had made up his mind. "Don't worry about this. When she gives birth to a child, I will kick her out. You will take care of the child."
His gaze was deep, like a bottomless abyss, even darker than the night sky.
But Yoselin felt insecure about his inscrutable nature.
His attitude seemed a bit different.
As long as Jazmine existed, Yoselin would feel threatened. Only if... Jazmine was dead!
The idea was too powerful.
"Giancarlo, you are so good to me." She gently grabbed his clothes, raised her head to hide her dark emotions, and gave a pure smile.
"It's what I should do." He bent down and reached out to rub her head, his voice deep and warm. "After all, you saved me. If not for you, I would have died a long time ago."
Back then...
Everyone knew the famous CEO of the Tapia Group had a hard time when he was young. He almost died in an accident. If he had not been saved by a girl, he would not have been the same as he was today.
"Yes, yes." Yoselin's smile was forced. Her fingers tightened and became even paler. She suppressed her strong emotions.
She told herself over and over again that she was the one who saved Giancarlo!
"Will she really be sent away when she gives birth to the child?" Yoselin felt a little uneasy, but she could not tell why.
"Yes." Giancarlo was always patient. His voice was hoarse, and his eyes were deep. "I will send her away."
The sound of knocking suddenly came from the door. Owen came in and said hesitantly, "Mr. Tapia, you have a call."
Jazmine had called dozens of times.
Giancarlo's eyes were cold. He glanced indifferently and hung up the phone with a cold sneer. "If she doesn't die, ignore her."
"Then today's contract..." Owen asked hesitantly, "Do you still want it to continue?"
Suddenly, Owen could not bear it. He was afraid Jazmine would not know that if the contract was signed today, the Gardner family would be completely broken.
However, Giancarlo's expression did not change. Instead, he raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Continue."
"The Gardner Group is illegally financing. It is a disaster to keep such a company." There was no warmth in Giancarlo's eyes. Instead, he said coldly.
"If she called again..." His dark eyes swept over the phone screen. The name "Jazmine" was still flashing on it. He averted his gaze and said coldly.
"Just tell her that if she doesn't want the Gardner Group to go bankrupt so quickly, she should realize what her duty is."
Every word was cold and harsh.
