Instead, he directly pushed them aside and quickly walked to the operating table.
Seeing my state, his eyes were filled with pain.
“Where’s the director? Get out here.”
The director, who had been outside, quickly ran in at Gideon’s call.
“Boss, what’s wrong?”
Gideon looked at the director with bloodshot eyes and said slowly,
“She’s my wife, your lady boss. Now, give her the best care possible.”
“If anything happens to her, I’m sure you’ve heard of my methods.”
After saying this, Gideon glared harshly at Jackson and Phoebe.
“I don’t have time to deal with you now.”
Gideon instructed the bodyguard to take them to the Gideon Family Ancestral Hall and lock them up.
The Gideon Family Ancestral Hall was used to discipline family members who made mistakes, a tradition spanning hundreds of years.
Jackson and Phoebe were terrified when they realized the child was Gideon’s.
“How is that possible?”
“The child is actually Gideon’s!”
Phoebe’s tone was filled with resentment and regret,
“Why didn’t she say earlier that the child was Gideon’s?”
“This is practically a death sentence for us!”
Phoebe’s Family had once helped the Gideon Family, leading to a five–year marriage of convenience between Phoebe and Gideon.
If Phoebe couldn’t make Gideon fall in love with her within five years, they would amicably divorce.
In those five years, Phoebe had witnessed Gideon’s ruthless nature
She was initially attracted to his decisiveness and lack of emotion, but now she only felt fear.
Jackson and Gideon weren’t born to the same mother.
Gideon was born to the first wife and was favored from birth.
Jackson was born to the second wife, whose mother was just a socialite.
Jackson knew from a young age that the gap between him and Gideon was immense.
Most importantly, the Gideon Family had connections in both legal and underworld circles.

Jackson was born to the second wife, whose mother was just a socialite.
Jackson knew from a young age that the gap between him and Gideon was immense.
Most importantly, the Gideon Family had connections in both legal and underworld circles.
And Gideon was a very intimidating figure, known for being ruthless and merciless.
Rumor had it that he killed his own father to get his current position, and those who offended him would end up dead.
Jackson had only met Gideon a handful of times in over twenty years.
So both he and Phoebe were both respectful and fearful of him.
Gideon stood outside the operating room, quietly waiting for fate’s judgment.
He hoped Avery and the child would be okay.
At the same time, he regretted agreeing not to make their marriage public.
The divorce certificate between Avery and Jackson was arranged through connections.
Jackson didn’t need to be present, nor was he informed.
Grandma Nora had been taken home to rest due to her age.
A few hours later, several doctors and nurses emerged, looking exhausted.
A nurse held a piece of cloth in her arms, with blood soaking through.
The doctor, with a look of fear, spoke with a trembling voice,
“Boss, the lady boss’s life is secured now.”
“But due to severe injuries and excessive stress, whether she wakes up depends on the next two days.
“The child couldn’t be saved.”
After the doctor finished speaking, the nurse showed Gideon the baby’s body wrapped in the cloth.
Gideon gently took the child’s body with his hand.
So small, not even the size of a palm, but clearly a boy.
“My son is gone just like that?”
Gideon’s voice was filled with pain and regret.
He was approaching forty.
Though he appeared young, he was actually not.
He had many lovers before, even a wife.
But without exception, none succeeded in getting pregnant.
He always thought it was because of the bad things he did, a punishment from heaven.
Until he met Avery, fell in love with her, and they conceived a child together.
The butler, seeing this, quickly comforted,
“Sir, please accept my condolences. There will be more children in the future.”
The most is
