    Chapter 781 An Unexpected Discovery


    During the conversation, Gideon casually mentioned a term rted to


    architectural design. After saying it, he realized that Charlotte might not


    understand it. Just as he was about to exin, Charlotte naturally continued


    the conversation, showing no signs of confusion.


    Not only Gideon, but Lena and Joe also noticed this and looked at her.


    Charlotte looked at them puzzled, “What’s wrong? Why are you looking at me


    like that?”


    Lena hugged her excitedly, “You understood what we were talking about!”


    Only then did Charlotte realize that she had effortlessly understood every


    technical term they had mentioned, without any difficulty!


    “Maybe this could stimte you and help you regain your memory!” Lena said


    excitedly, pulling Charlotte’s hand, “From today on, I’lle here every day to


    be with you! We can help you recover!”


    Before Charlotte could say anything, Gideon frowned, “You can’t! I’lle


    every day!”


    “Why can’t I?” Lena frowned.


    “You just got out of the hospital, remember?” Gideon’s face turned gloomy.


    When a person who usually wore a warm smile suddenly turned stern, it was


    quite surprising; not only Lena but even Charlotte was taken aback.


    “Hospital?” Charlotte looked worriedly at Lena. Although she had just met


    Lena, she had an instinctive liking for her. Hearing that she had been to the


    hospital, Charlotte immediately became concerned.


    Lena blushed and gave Gideon an annoyed look but didn’t insist oning to


    apany Charlotte anymore.


    “She’s pregnant. She fainted when she heard that you went missing andter


    found out,” Gideon said candidly, “She wanted to see you as soon as she


    heard you were back but couldn’te until now because the doctor wouldn’t


    discharge her.”


    Pregnant?


    Not to mention Charlotte, even Joe looked surprised at Lena’s t stomach.


    Lena was first embarrassed for a moment, then she openly showed her belly


    to Charlotte, “It’s just a little bean; you can’t even tell.”


    “Is it your child?” Joe gave Gideon a meaningful look. No wonder he had


    been so cautious, following Lena all along. It turned out he was worried she


    might fall.


    Gideon pursed his lips, and his eyes carried a hint of disappointment as he looked at Lena, “But she


    rejected my marriage proposal.”

    “Enough,” Lena quickly stopped him, even rolling her eyes at him.


    Charlotte then spoke up, “Proposal? Is it because of the child in her belly?”


    Gideon was stumped by her question, unable to speak immediately.


    Watching his reaction, Lena dispelled her disappointment and said to


    Charlotte, “Don’t worry about him; the child is mine alone, and he has nothing


    to do with it.”


    Charlotte’s clear eyes carried a prating gaze, “But you obviously care.”


    Lena flushed and quickly changed the subject.


    At this moment, Gideon looked thoughtful as he stared at Lena.


    Was that the reason she had been refusing to ept his proposal?


    He thought about his own feelings and realized that he didn’t want to marry


    Lena just for the child. In fact, he didn’t care whether Lena had the child or


    not.


    What he really wanted was Lena herself, not just the mother of his future


    child.
