The CEO’s Unkown Wife
Chapter 212 - 212 212 Exposed_1

Chapter 212: Chapter 212 Exposed_1 Chapter 212: Chapter 212 Exposed_1 As Bo Jingyan received the express delivery, he took out the item inside.

Even before he saw what it was, he noticed spots of bright red blood smeared on it. He recognized it to be from Mr. Bo immediately.

Bo Jingyan’s gaze darkened further.

He tried to avert his focus from the bloodstains, then began to discern what was inside – what could possibly have angered Mr. Bo, the man who had weathered countless storms, to the extent of coughing up blood and triggering his heart condition.

When he finally saw the content of the parcel, his facial expression was stuck momentarily.

As Xia Qingtian was waiting for the result, she saw Bo Jingyan holding the item from the delivery, completely still, as if he had turned into a statue.

She found it odd and quickly asked in worry, “Master Bo, what exactly is in the delivery? Who upset grandfather to the point of spitting blood and triggering his illness?”

Bo Jingyan didn’t answer her question.

Instead, he slowly raised his head and looked at her emotionlessly. His deep-set eyes held a certain emotion that was hard to decipher.

Seeing him like this, Xia Qingtian couldn’t understand why her heart started beating faster. She subconsciously took a step back, not daring to meet his gaze.

She stepped back again, maintaining a safe distance from Bo Jingyan, finally feeling a sense of security.

“Master Bo…” Her voice trembled, filled with unease. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

Bo Jingyan handed the item to her straight away, his tone icy cold, “See for yourself.”

Xia Qingtian took the item with a sense of dread and looked at it in puzzlement.

When she realized what she was holding, her pupils contracted, and her facial expression instantly froze.

The item that had enraged Mr. Bo to the point of coughing blood was, to her disbelief—

The photocopy of a DNA parentage test results she had done a while back.

Although Bo Jingyan’s name wasn’t mentioned on it, Mr. Bo would have certainly guessed that it was the parentage test she had for the child in her belly and Bo Jingyan!

So, the grandfather had come to know that the child she was carrying did not share the Bo family’s bloodline.

And that was why he had become so worked up that his heart condition flared up.

Xia Qingtian instantly felt a pang in her heart. So, she was the very cause of Mr. Bo’s heart attack.

Instantaneously, the overwhelming feelings of pain, guilt, and regret almost crushed her.

“I’m… I’m sorry…” Tears started to fall from her eyes like pearls falling from a broken string.

On seeing her cry, Bo Jingyan usually couldn’t bear it. He would want to comfort her, want to wipe away her tears.

But not this time.

Thinking about Mr. Bo who was still lying in the hospital’s ICU, even though he felt heartache, he made no gesture to comfort her and his facial expression remained unchanged.

“Those words should be said to grandfather, who you harmed to the extent of sending him to ICU and leaving him in mortal danger.” His icy tone mocked her.

Xia Qingtian couldn’t say another word due to the guilt.

Anything she said now would be meaningless.

Bo Jingyan didn’t want to see the pitiful Xia Qingtian anymore. He turned and walked briskly away, heading for the hospital’s rooftop.

He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one, and slowly started smoking.

Left behind, Xia Qingtian couldn’t help crying uncontrollably.

If she could have it her way, she’d rather be the one in the ICU than Mr. Bo.

Zhang Bo saw her crying so hard and felt a sense of sympathy.

He stepped forward, took out a pack of tissues from his pocket and handed it to her, comforting her, “Young mistress, please stop crying.”

“If Grandfather saw you crying like this, it would definitely break his heart.”

On hearing these words, Xia Qingtian felt as if she had been pierced with a thousand arrows.

“No more!” She shook her head in pain, “Grandfather will never care about me or be kind to me anymore.”

Xia Qingtian was sure of it.

Even if Mr. Bo wakes up safely, he would no longer love her, and might even loathe her.

Knowing that the child in her belly did not share the Bo family’s bloodline, he will surely see her as a loose, flirty woman.

He would definitely regret having loved her so much before.

She then realized that she had lost the elder who loved her the most.

Following this.

Xia Qingtian had been vigilantly standing watch outside the ICU day and night, praying with all her heart every day for Master Bo to wake up.

Even if Master Bo woke up and abused her, or slapped her, it would be acceptable.

She just wished for him to be safe and sound.

Master Bo kept his eyes shut every day. His condition didn’t worsen, but he also did not wake up.

With the passage of time, the pressure in everyone’s hearts increased.

Xia Qingtian’s complexion gradually became paler.

Seeing her colorless and gaunt face, looking as if it would wither at any moment, Bo Jingyan felt a surge of anger.

Angry that she wasn’t taking care of herself.

He approached Xia Qingtian expressionlessly, and coldly said, “You should go home.”

Xia Qingtian felt somewhat groggy.

It was a while before she understood what Bo Jingyan had said.

She slowly shook her head, speaking in a feeble voice, “As long as grandpa doesn’t wake up, I won’t rest.”

She wouldn’t rest until she saw Master Bo wake up and open his eyes.

Seeing her appearing ready to faint at any moment, yet still stubborn, Bo Jingyan was filled with more anger.

Bluntly, he said, “Do you think grandpa would want to see you upon awakening?”

Xia Qingtian’s already pale face turned even paler.

Correct.

What was the point of her staying here to watch over Master Bo?

When grandpa did see her, he could be triggered again.

Staying here, she couldn’t do anything, and would instead cause harm.

“Alright, I’ll leave…” Xia Qingtian nodded heavily.

After saying those words, Bo Jingyan regretted it a bit, afraid she had read too much into them.

But seeing that she was prepared to leave the hospital and rest, he didn’t say anything else.

Standing up like a puppet, in a voice that revealed a hint of pleading, she said, “Mr. Bo, I know I don’t have the right, but I beg you, if grandpa wakes up, you must notify me.”

“Hmm!” Bo Jingyan coldly hummed in reply.

Seeing that he had agreed, Xia Qingtian wanted to give him a grateful smile, but she couldn’t muster one up.

In the end.

All she could manage was to weakly utter two words, “Thank you.”

Then, she turned around and left.

In her current state, Bo Jingyan naturally couldn’t rest easy letting her leave alone. He was about to call Zhang Bo to send her off when suddenly…

Xia Qingtian’s body softened, and she collapsed.

Seeing this scene, Bo Jingyan’s heart skipped a beat, and a wave of fear washed over him.

He rushed over immediately, picked Xia Qingtian up, and sent her to the emergency room.

The doctor checked her over.

She was alright, just extremely fatigued from the past couple of days, coupled with emotional strain, which led to her fainting.

Only then did Bo Jingyan breathe a sigh of relief.

He sent Xia Qingtian to the general ward.

…

When Xia Qingtian woke up again, it was deep into the night of the second day.

She was startled for a moment before she remembered what had happened.

She checked the time on her phone and realized that today was the last day of the three-day deadline the doctor had given Master Bo. If Master Bo didn’t wake up, then…
