Fled With CEO’s Twin Babies

With a bang, Jeffrey, who hadn’t gripped it firmly, watched them as the coffee cup slipped from his hands and fell to the ground.
He looked at Gideon in disbelief. “What did you say?”
“She’s pregnant,” Gideon repeated while Lena glanced at him suspiciously.
Jeffrey had originally thought that Lena was just Gideon’s girlfriend, and he was overjoyed about Gideon bringing someone home
for the first time. He was utterly unprepared to be hit by such a bombshell, and it seemed to rattle him.
“Are you out of your mind?” Jeffrey stared at Gideon in panic. “Or have you already got married and just haven’t informed us?”
Gideon shook his head. “Not yet.”
Jeffrey grew more serious and patted Gideon’s shoulder solemnly. “I’ll get an ICU ready for you.”
His gaze then fell on Lena. “It seems Gideon really has deep feelings for you.”
Gideon frowned and glared at him, prompting Jeffrey to drop the subject and stand up. “There are a few more dishes that haven’t
been served. I’ll go hurry them up.”
After Jeffrey left, Lena looked at Gideon curiously. “Why did your uncle react so strongly?”
Noticing her curiosity, Gideon spoke helplessly. “There’s an aunt of mine who suffered a broken relationship because she got
pregnant before marriage, so the elders in my family don’t really support these things.”
Gideon spoke vaguely, but Lena sensed that the reality would be more complicated. If it was just the elders not being very
supportive, why would Jeffrey have such a strong reaction? No matter how much she pressed for answers, Gideon was unwilling
to continue speaking. “I can handle these matters. I don’t want them to affect your judgment.” Lena immediately realized that the
issue was probably not as trivial as he made it sound. Since Gideon was unwilling to talk about it, she did not continue to press
him.

When Jeffrey came back with the servers bringing the food, he saw Lena sitting there eating while Gideon watched her with a
smile.
The atmosphere between the two was very affectionate and seemed different from what he had imagined.
He had thought that during his absence, Gideon would tell her the truth and that she might be touched to tears or at least show
some different emotions atthis time.
But now, it appeared that things had not developed as he had expected.
When Lena went to the restroom, Jeffrey frowned and asked Gideon, “Didn’t you tell her?”
Gideon softened a bit. “It was my fault at first, and I don’t want her to force herself because of family matters.”
Jeffrey stared at him for a moment and then suddenly laughed. “It seems that the romantic genes really do run in our family.”
He patted Gideon on the shoulder and said briskly, “Then, it’s up to you. But since you’ve brought someone here, you should
know that even if I don’t say a word, your parents will find out sooner or later.”
Gideon looked back at him meaningfully. “How do you know I didn’t bring her here on purpose?”
Jeffrey was taken aback for a moment, then he smiled more brightly, “Well done! Planning a scheme against your uncle, huh?”
It was at this point that Lena happened to return, and the two men stopped their conversation.
Distracted by Jeffrey’s interjection, Lena, who had been somewhat frightened earlier, completely forgot about Debra, who had
been taken away by the police. Her mind was now entirely preoccupied with the thought of meeting
Gideon’s parents, no longer remembering Debra.
This was also Gideon’s intention, and seeing her slightly frowning, he quietly smiled.
