After dealing with these matters, Henry didn't dare to delay any longer. He immediately asked David to
drive to the airport. It only took less than ten minutes for the negotiation to be settled. At the beginning,
Henry planned to stay here for one more week. It seemed that his plan was ruined because of Claire...
In less than an hour, Henry directly boarded the plane and went back to A City. His action was so fast
that everyone was stunned when he returned to the Gu Family. No one had expected that Claire would
occupy such an important position in Henry's heart.
When James entered Claire's room, he was shocked. The house of Henry was always decorated in
black and white, and after Claire moved in, there was a trace of pink. This woman was really
something!
James didn't walk into the room directly. He asked the maid to check on her first to make sure that she
was not seriously injured. Then he slowly walked in and asked with concern, "Claire, how are you
feeling now? Why didn't you tell us that you had a fever? I'll ask the servant to get you some
antipyretics right now! "
What he said was beautiful. If it weren't for the fact that Claire was pregnant, James wouldn't have
cared so much, would he? After all, the Gu Family couldn't have no descendants, and the attitude
shown by Henry made him most concerned.
Claire was in a daze and didn't know much. She just frowned and couldn't say a word for a long time.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Shelly endured the pain and came up to him eagerly. "Dad, let me
take care of her. I did something wrong to this child before, and now I must do a good job!"
Although what she said was true, no one knew what Shelly was thinking about. And this time, James
dared not be careless. He still remembered that Shelly almost killed Claire before. If the servant hadn't
told him that, Claire would have suffered more.
After casting a glance at Shelly, James cast an order of expelling her and said, "It's all right. It's up to
me. You have broken the family law today, so your body must not be flexible. You'd better go back to
your room early."
If Shelly stayed here, Henry would probably not be able to see Claire open her eyes when he came
back. He was not stupid! He reached out his hand and wiped the sweat off Claire's forehead
subconsciously. Then he found that Claire's pillow was all wet with tears.
It seemed that this child's life was not as good as others thought. Only she herself knew how much
pain she had suffered? This rich and powerful clan seemed to be yearning for, but in fact, it was an
invisible birdcage, binding everyone's body and heart here. They would never come out to see the sun!
At five o'clock in the morning, Henry successfully returned to A City. After asking David to do something
else, he drove his car alone to the Gu Family's mansion that night. In order to make sure if Claire was
getting better, he came back overnight and didn't dare to stay for a moment, fearing that something bad
would happen.
James was exhausted this time. He not only served Claire in person, but also took the initiative to serve
her with tea, water and cold towel, as if he was afraid of neglect her. Although Claire was in a daze, he
still replied "thank you", which somewhat moved James.
He wiped the sweat on Claire's forehead and said, "Claire, I've asked a servant to decoct medicine.
Remember to take some medicine later. You have a fever now. If you don't quickly bring down your
fever, you'll burn your brain! If Henry comes back, I'll be screwed! "
At the same time, doctors came in one after another, intending to give Claire an injection. Hearing a
faint voice, Claire's hair stood up unconsciously. Was he going to treat her? No, as long as it was
related to all kinds of drugs, she would resist it!
Not knowing where her spirit came from, Claire stretched out her hand and pushed away the doctor
who was about to approach her. Then she trembled and tried to retreat. All drugs have a certain
toxicity, she is most aware of this truth, now direct intravenous infusion is to kill her!
"Well..."
The doctor looked at the direction of James with some embarrassment, as if asking for his opinion. If
the patient did not cooperate, it would be difficult for them even if their technology was good!
Seeing that, James was also anxious. His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and then he persuaded kindly,
"Claire, stop it. If you go on like this, something big will happen!"
If Henry knew it, he would definitely have a headache. He knew his grandson's more serious character
than anyone else. Anyway, he had watched him grow up. His character was not something ordinary
people could bear!
Just as James was trying to ask the doctor to get close to her and force her to give the injection, Claire
suddenly shook her head as if she was crazy, and then screamed sadly, "don't come over, go away,
don't get close to me! Damn it! Run away! Don't come over... Don't touch me... "
Claire's voice sounded like she was talking in her sleep, and her sobbing tone made the heart of Henry,
who had just walked downstairs, tighten in an instant. What on earth happened! Didn't he say that
Claire was sick? Why was she cry like that? Did someone bully her!
While thinking, Henry quickened his pace. When he pushed the door open, he saw that Claire was
pressed on the head of the bed by force. Without any hesitation, Henry rushed up and pulled the
doctors away. His face was full of anger.
Claire was his woman. How could he allow others to do such a thing to her! At the sight of Henry's
familiar face, Claire burst into tears. In order to protect the child of the two, she had tried her best.
Her body, which was supported by her spirit power, broke down at the sight of Henry. She felt relieved
and naturally had no strength to move. Looking at Claire who was lying on the bed limply, the heart of
Henry inexplicably became complicated.
He has never been rude to this woman. How could he allow others to fiddle with her like this? If they
hurt his sleeping artifact, who could afford to compensate! And seeing such ambiguous gestures, how
could he be so calm as to assume nothing had happened?
James came to his senses first. He stood up and asked in surprise, "Henry? Why are you back at this
time? Didn't you go to B City to talk about business? "
Didn't he call him just now? Why did he come back so soon? Was it because of Claire? At the thought
of this possibility, James's face darkened. Shelly, who had been eavesdropping outside the door, was
even more shocked.
She didn't expect that Claire would alert Henry to come back in person. After all, Henry was always
meticulous about his work. How could he rush back and forth for a woman he had only known for two
months? But now the fact was clear, she had no choice but to accept it.
If the family rules in the ancestral temple were to be investigated, she would be... While thinking, Shelly
subconsciously tightened her body and pulled the wound on her back. She couldn't help but scream in
pain, but this weak voice was keenly captured by Henry.
Looking at Claire's frown, Henry's heart contracted violently. He glanced at the door with a cold face,
and then asked deliberately, "Grandpa, what's the family law you said on the phone?"
This was what he couldn't bear most in his daily life. Claire was just an ordinary pregnant woman, and
she was weak. How could she withstand such torture? If the Gu Family had no heir, James would be in
a hurry.
James smiled awkwardly, and then told the whole story briefly. Outside the door, Shelly was shocked
by his words. After all, if Henry got angry, the Gu Family would tremble three times.
In fact, this question was specially asked by Henry. Although he was powerful in the Gu Family, he still
had to pay attention to his own image. That was why he wanted James to say it first and let the people
here hear it clearly before going out.
After clearing his throat, Henry glanced at the door and said, "Get out! No one is allowed to come in
without my permission! By the way, call Shelly in. I have something to deal with alone with her. "
James knew everything in Henry's mind. If he didn't let him go, things would not be so simple! James
stepped forward and tried to persuade him, "It's too early. They must haven't gotten up yet. Just let
Shelly have a good rest. I've punished her according to the family law today. She may not feel well this
time!"
While speaking, he winked at Henry, as if implying something. But outside the door, Shelly didn't know
the real intention of James. She was just grateful and simply thought that James was a fair person.
