?<strong>Chapter 579:</strong>


    Irving’s mind suddenly went nk. He heard her very well but just couldn’tprehend how a pregnancy that was never threatened was suddenly gone.


    Gavin epted the recent reality faster than Irving did. With a somber expression, he held Elyse, who was very sad at the moment, to give her emotional support. “Elyse, put yourself together. Can you give me the details of how this happened? I may be able to help.”


    He remembered the prints of guilt and anxiety that were all over Fiona previously.


    Should Fiona be involved, he would need to reevaluate her integrity.


    Elyse narrated, as she recalled, how the afternoon had gone.


    Irving and Gavin grew evidently furious when they learned that Fiona did nothing but stand by at the time.


    At that point, Gavin’s eyes were red with rage. Fiona should have done better than keep silent during and even after the whole operation. Though she wouldn’t have been able to stop those people from taking Elyse away, the least she could have done was scream for help.


    Fiona didn’t handle the situation in a proper way.


    In a bid to quell the rage that surged within him, Irving punched the white wall close to where he stood.


    “Where’s Jayden now?” he asked, trying to dissipate the anger he felt.


    “He hasn’t regained consciousness. He sustained more severe injuries than I did.” Elyse cupped her hands over her face. She looked pitiful as her shoulders trembled in so much pain.


    The sight of her in so much pain was unbearable for Irving. He suddenly turned to leave.


    Gavin took hold of his shirt to stop him and asked sternly, “Where are you going?”


    Irving gritted his teeth. “To the studio, of course. I must find Fiona to ask her what exactly her intentions were for keeping silent.”


    Pulling him back forcefully, Gavin was surprised by his action. “Really? And you think she’ll give you a reply? What makes you think that she would open up to you when she doesn’t even like you?”


    Gavin heaved a sigh and continued, “Don’t worry, I’ll talk to herter.”


    Irving paused for a while, then he proceeded to the door again.


    With a frown, Gavin asked, “Where are you headed now?”


    “To see if Jayden is awake,” Irving said without looking back and left the room.


    Gavin noticed that Elyse was lost in thought judging by the way she gazed into the air. He waved his hand before her to bring her back to reality.


    Her response to his wave was slow. She was overwhelmed with helplessness and the pain she felt.


    Sitting by her bedside, he tried to hide his emotions. He said calmly, “Are you aware that Mr. Tucker would soon be back? His flight for Watscar is in two days.”


    He paused for a while before he continued, “He said he misses you a lot. He got so many gifts for you and the baby when we were informed of your pregnancy. He would like to give you a special treat to celebrate your top score too.”


    Elyse smiled sorrowfully. “The baby is gone. The gifts won’t be necessary now.”


    Gavin gently patted her head and said, “Beyond the baby, he cares about and loves you so much. Irving and I too. We’ll be there for you anytime you need our support.”


    Elyse’s stare made him a bit ufortable. Then she said, “I really appreciate you a lot. You are so kind and gentle.”


    Gavin didn’t expect to be given such apliment. He coughed lightly before he said, “We know this is a tough season for you, but we will get through it together.”


    Elyse gave a taut smile, “Thank you, Gavin.”


    Irving suddenly rushed in, gasping for breath. “Elyse, he’s awake! Jayden is awake! The doctors are examining him and running some tests!”


    Surprised, Elyse couldn’t keep it together. She nervously asked, “Are you sure? Is he really awake?”


    Irving nodded excitedly. “I am certain. His friends were gathered around his bed. Would you like to see him?”


    She stared into the air for a few seconds, after which she yanked off the sheets and stepped out of the bed barefooted.


    Gavin gently scolded, “Why the rush? At least put on your shoes. We already know that Jayden is fine now.”


    “Rush? No, I’m not. I just can’t find my slippers.”


    Gavin giggled. “Oh, I see. You are not in a hurry, we are. Put on something before you leave.”
