Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 118 So I Can Have The Baby

"So, I can have the baby?" Jessica's future looked brighter and happier. She was elated.

"Sure. If that's what you want." Edward teased and said coldly as if he were talking about the weather.

"Then will you marry me?" Jessica spat out the question she wanted to ask most.

"Marry you? So that's what you want. But Jessica, you? How dare you think you're good enough for

me?" The cruel words jumped out of Edward's mouth, a look of arrogance and disgust contorted his

face.

He wouldn't let anyone he disliked have any fantasies about him. He wouldn't even flirt with them.

People might think he's cruel, but he never cared about what others thought.

"But shouldn't our child have both father and mother?" Jessica panicked. If he didn't marry her, how

could she trust that he'd support her, and how to deal with the baby inside her? She didn't want to be a

single mom.

"That's not my concern." Edward looked sideways while he spun the pen in his hand. He was teasing

her, but his face was full of amused contempt.

"Edward, you can't do this to me. You know how much I love you. What am I supposed to do without

you? What about your kid?" Then Jessica pounced forward and grasped his arm, her tears dripping

into Edward's big hand.

"Jessica, get off me. Any feelings I had for you are fading away fast." Edward squinted his eagle eyes

and looked coldly at Jessica's hands. His distaste was growing more and more obvious.

"I..." Jessica released him. Her heart was torn apart. He couldn't let her stay even though she had his

baby? He never liked her? Then what should she do with herself? She loved him so much.

She had always known what a fickle lover he was. He never wasted his time or had feelings for any

woman, let alone love them.

In the past, he'd never dated a woman longer than a month. She hung around him for several years, so

she thought she was different. But in the end she was just another woman to him, who could be ditched

at any time.

When he first told her to end their relationship, she thought it was merely a joke. But it was not. She

waited so long, but he never came back to her. She figured out that she had been stupid -- and wrong.

"Do you still think the child is mine? You don't think someone else could be the father?" Edward stared This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

coldly at her tear-soaked face. Her pitiful look didn't soften his heart, not at all.

"You don't believe me?" Jessica's lips shivered. She could hardly believe that Edward could be so cruel

and thought her as such a slut.

"Believe you? No need for that." Edward said coolly. He was not moved by any of her words. If

anything, he was more impatient.

Jessica stepped back, and collapsed on the sofa, her face pale.

Edward was never kind. He had no remorse or pity for others. Jessica meant nothing to him. He hated

it when women bothered him, especially with an unwanted pregnancy.

Edward dialed the phone. "Anna, see her out." he ordered coldly. She should have seen this coming.

She was not good enough to become his wife, or the mother of his child.

Anna soon walked in. Bewildered, she looked at the sorrowful Jessica -- her ashen face made her look

so helpless, yet it couldn't melt Edward's icy heart. "Miss Jessica, this way." she said.

"Edward, do you have to be so cruel to me? You care nothing about our baby?" Jessica struggled to

the last, trying to win the slightest bit of pity from Edward.

Anna looked at Jessica in surprise, then glanced at Edward. Jessica was pregnant? Daisy wouldn't

take that well.

"Miss Jessica, please don't call me Edward any more. We are strangers to each other. I will say this

one more time: the baby inside you has nothing to do with me. You can do whatever you want with it."

Edward looked at her in a mocking way. She could see that she wasn't getting anywhere, he was just

as cold as usual.

"Edward, you will regret this. You're raising the bastard Justin, but you can't accept your own baby?

Okay, I'll raise the child myself and come back on you!" Jessica wiped her tears. Her clear eyes turned

hateful.

Edward crossed the room to her quickly, deliberately. He encircled her fragile neck with his hands,

squeezing tighter and tighter. He stared at her viciously. His evil eyes made her tremble. She saw his

gentle demeanor, but forgot the demon inside. Now she tasted the bitter fruit of that mistake. "Justin is

no bastard. Get that through your thick skull."

"I..." Jessica tried to remove his hands, but he only tightened his grip. Terror overwhelmed her. If she

could start all over again, she hoped never to meet Edward. He was demon. He could love no one, only

himself.

"Mr. Edward..." Anna said, hesitantly. Anna was quite worried to see him choking Jessica. She had to

remind Edward of what was going on, stopping him from doing something he might regret.

"Jessica, you're lucky you're pregnant, or you'd pay the price for what you just said."

Everyone knew that Justin was his favorite, his son. And Jessica was stupid enough to call him a

"bastard." That mistake could have cost her. She would have thrown away her life.
