Chapter 30
Jessica had not slept much all night. She sat in her office, feeling sulky.
Soon, she remembered the doctor's words yesterday and began to feel worried.
'What should I do?'
If she decided to abort the child, and there was a big hemorrhage or other uncontrollable conditions in
the process, she might die. Then what about her grandma?
But if she didn't, Oliver would have killed her if he knew. No man could accept that his wife was
pregnant with another man's child.
Jessica somehow admitted her identity as Mrs. Williams. She seemed to have trapped herself in a
dead-end. It was wrong to think so. She was indeed not his legal wife, but just a temporary
replacement.
Jessica still didn't want to give up. The private hospital she went to was a small one. It was possible
that the doctor could not handle such a situation. She decided to take an afternoon off and go to other
hospitals to ask.
She used a fake identity when she went to the private hospital so that she wouldn't be identified. But
after she went to several large private hospitals, she got the same bad news.
Then she took the risk and went to the best public hospital, however, the doctors didn't have a good
way either.
After going out of the public hospital, Jessica went straight to Williams Hospital to see her grandma.
Grandma saw the worried look on her face and asked with concern, "Jessica, is there anything wrong?"
Jessica immediately smiled and grabbed grandma's wrinkled hand. "Nothing, grandma. I just started
working, and I haven't fully adapted yet."
"I'll be fine soon. You don't have to come to see me every day. Since you're married, you have to put
your family first."
"Grandma, don't worry. He's good to me. I'll bring him to see you when he is free."
Jessica had told her about the breakup with Vincent and she married a man she fell in love with at first
sight. That man often went abroad on business, so he couldn't come to see grandma.
"You should go."
Her grandma was probably afraid that it would be not good for her for going home late and urged her to
leave.
"Okay, grandma."
Jessica tucked grandma in and left.
She walked to the registration office on the first floor and had an impulse to check in Williams Hospital.
This was the top hospital in Birmingham. Perhaps the doctors here had a way.
However, if the hospital leaked the news that Mrs. Williams had an abortion operation, it would
seriously affect Oliver.
Jessica finally suppressed the urge and went straight back to GrandVille Apartments.
Oliver was in GrandVille Apartments now.
"Mr. Williams, madam went to a private hospital after seeing Vincent yesterday. She asked for leave
today and went to several hospitals."
"Why did she go to the hospital? Didn't her grandmother be treated well in Williams Hospital?"
Oliver thought that Jessica went to the hospital because of her grandmother's illness.
Simon began to sweat out of nervousness. "We found out that madam is pregnant through her medical
records."
'Pregnant?'
Oliver was stunned. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
He used condoms every time they slept, not to mention that they had only done it twice. So she
couldn't get pregnant so soon. He became suspicious.
Simon handed over the test results.
When Oliver saw the word "Eight weeks plus," he was angry.
"Is that woman back?"
"Yes."
"Don't let the housekeeper clean up the study. Also, find a chance to fire Catherine."
Simon replied reverently, "I'll do it right away."
Oliver stayed alone in the study for half an hour before returning to the bedroom.
Jessica was sitting on the sofa in a daze. When she saw Oliver coming back, she felt a little bit guilty.
When she saw Oliver's eyes, she could feel the coldness in his eyes, like a sword aiming straightly at
her. She subconsciously shivered.
'Does he know?' She knew this man was alert and suspicious.
"Don't you have anything to tell me?" He said in a cold and frightening tone.
"I..."
Jessica's mind was in a whirl. She didn't know where to start. But since he asked, he had to be honest
and talk to him frankly. After all, they were partners.
"Let's talk about it."
"About what? About you being pregnant with another man's child and marrying into the Williams
Family?"
Jessica stared at the man. As she expected, he knew.
"I didn't mean to. I didn't know I'm pregnant at all. Besides, we're not a real couple."
"You have already married me and still see other men. Who do you think I am, some generous saint?"
"I have no other man since I married you. I've never betrayed you."
"I'm done with your lies."
"Who was the man you met at the coffee shop yesterday?"
"You followed me?"
"So what?"
Jessica felt that there was no point in arguing with this now. What was important was the baby in her
belly. "I beg you to believe me once. I didn't betray you."
"Then prove it to me. Abort the baby."
"I can't."
"What? Do I give you too much freedom and give you the illusion that you can do whatever you want?"
Jessica was so scared that her face turned pale.
"It's not that I don't want to abort the baby. I've been to many hospitals today. The doctors said that
because of my health condition, I can't have an abortion."
"Do you think I am a fool?"
"It's true..."
"Shut up."
Before Jessica could finish her sentence, Oliver interrupted her.
He was raged. The more she explained, the angrier he became. They could only talk about it tomorrow.
She just walked to the bed and wanted to sleep, Oliver grabbed her and said, "What? Do you still want
to sleep on the bed? You are not allowed to sleep in my bed from now on."
"Alright, I'll go to the guest room."
"No way. Why do you sleep in a guest room? Are you a guest? You are nothing."
Jessica no longer wanted to argue with Oliver. It was her own fault about the pregnancy. She was
willing to bear the consequences. She could totally understand Oliver's feeling, after all, she was once
betrayed by Vincent.
"Then I'll sleep on the sofa."
"No."
"What do you mean?"
"The floor is the only place you can sleep on."
