Chapter 1169 Jealousy From An Ex
The smile on Kailee''s face immediately became crooked.
She looked at Laney up and down in disbelief, with jealousy and disdain burning in her eyes.
Initially, she was only shocked that Garrett was married. She didn''t expect that in addition to being
married, his wife would be pregnant.
It also seemed like the baby was going to be delivered in a matter of days.
Kailee found the fact unptable.
What kind of person was Garrett? He was a wild and notorious yboy. How could he ever stay
with one woman?
Laney, however, didn''t notice anything different with Kailee. She simply nodded politely and said,
"Hello, Miss Gibson."
With a forced smile, Kailee responded, "Hello."
Garrett''s attention waspletely taken off Kailee. Instead, he carefully held Laney''s arm and
asked gently, "How are you feeling? Do you feel any difort today? Is the baby being naughty?"
Garrett''s affection was so sweet that the restlessness Laney had been feeling disappeared in an
instant. She rubbed her belly gently and smiled. "It hasn''t even been born yet. How can it be
naughty?" "That''s good." Garrett cracked a goofy smile - very much unlike his wild and unruly
former self. "Have you decided which hospital you want to go to?"
Laney nodded. "This one''s okay. I just had a look around it with J. It''s not bad at all."
Upon hearing this, Garrett felt a bit helpless. He hadn''t expected Laney to finally settle on the
hospital that his father had picked, but he decided not to debate it with her since her mind was
already made up.
He resolved to keep a close eye on things and not allow the Harding family to bother Laney.

Witnessing the romantic bond between Garrett and Laney made Kailee feel even more
ufortable.
In the past, Garrett was a big shot in school. A simple smile from him was enough to charm
hundreds of girls. It had taken Kailee a lot of effort to be his girlfriend.
At that time, they were the dream couple of the school. So many girls were jealous of her. If she
didn''t have to travel abroad for further studies, she wouldn''t have broken up with him.
The thing that puzzled Kailee the most was how gentle Garrett was with Laney. She''d never seen
him like this.
This kind of tenderness unexpectedly belonged to an ordinary woman now.
Kailee almost became engulfed with jealousy.
"Kailee? Kailee?" Noticing the absent-minded look on Kailee''s face, Garrett waved his hand in front
of her and asked, "What''s on your mind?"
Kailee snapped back to her senses. Upon noticing the confused look on Garrett''s face, she quickly
made up an excuse. "Oh, I was just thinking about work. What''s up?"
Garrett didn''t think too much of it. He smiled at Laney and said, "The Gibson family owns this
hospital, right? My wife will go to your hospital soon. Promise me to take good care of her. Alright?"
The level of care that Garrett was showing Laney made Kailee even more jealous. In order to
maintain herposure, however, Kailee took a deep breath to try and calm down. "Of course. I''ll
ask the staff to
take very good care of her. You have nothing to worry about."
"Thank you. I really appreciate it," Garrett thanked her sincerely.
But the distance between them deeply hurt Kailee. The contrast between Garrett''s attitude towards
his wife and his attitude towards her was so striking that she couldn''t stay another second. She
made up an excuse and got ready to leave.
Garrett, however, didn''t think much of it. After saying goodbye to Kailee, his attention went right
back to Laney.
Upon seeing the couple''s affectionate interaction with each other, J felt relieved. "Well, if there''s
nothing else, I''ll get going. Brandon''s waiting for me at home."
Garrett was grateful to J for apanying Laney to the hospital. "Thank you for taking care of
my wife today, Laney. I''ll make sure to treat you to dinner one of these days."
