Reborn Before The Divorce

Jesse looked instantly dejected and let out a sigh. “Tonics won’t help me. I’m beyond that.”

“Cough… cough…” Nydia was choking on water and coughing uncontrollably, her face turning red.

“Nydia, are you okay? You’re coughing so hard!” Willette was on the other side and couldn’t pat Nydia’s back in time.

To avoid disturbing others with her coughing, Nydia pressed herself against Jesse’s arm and coughed while holding onto his clothes. He didn’t move and let her hold onto him, but his body tensed up slightly.

After coughing for a while, Nydia calmed down and leaned against him, breathing evenly. She also hugged his arm and pressed her body against his. Jesse’s ears turned red instantly and he dared not move, afraid of accidentally brushing against her.

“Sorry, I choked just now.” She sat back up, straightened her clothes and hair. Her face was still red, like a ripe peach with a blush. She looked tender and fresh, like a bite would yield juice.

Barclay occasionally glanced at Nydia, sweeping over her collarbone, neck, and finally her face.

Technically, the conversation was interrupted by her coughing just now, and any person with normal emotional intelligence would know not to continue the topic. But Barclay couldn’t pass up this opportunity and brought it up again.

“Mr. Pascall, you just said… you’re beyond help? Are you joking?” Instead of answering immediately, Jesse took off his coat and handed it to Nydia. “Here, hold this.”

Nydia was confused and wondered why he gave her his coat.

The waiter walked over when he saw them and said, “Ma’am, give me the coat and I’ll hang it up for you.”

“No need.” Jesse spoke up.

Nydia could not understand what he meant, but heard him answering Barclay’s question.

“No, I’m not joking. I hurt my body in a car accident before and it’s been getting worse ever since.” Jesse’s tone was calm and made people doubt if he was telling the truth. After all, what man would bring that up?Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

He sounded serious and it seemed like he was really in bad shape. The car accident was severe and he had been in a wheelchair for a long time. It was not surprising that his body was not doing well.

At that moment, Barclay’s gaze turned towards her, looking at the position of her collarbone. She was taken aback and then looked towards the suit jacket she was holding, seeming to understand Jesse’s intention.

Could it be… jealousy?

The restaurant’s air conditioning was a bit cold, so she put on Jesse’s suit jacket. As soon as she put it on, her beautiful collarbone and rounded shoulders were hidden, revealing only her slender neck.

Willette and Barclay were now confused. First, they were surprised by Jesse’s words, and then they saw Jesse insisting that Nydia take his jacket, and now Nydia had put it on. They felt their heads buzzing and couldn’t keep up with the couple’s mind.

“What’s wrong? Do you sympathize with me? No need, I already have two children.” Jesse raised his glass. “Mr. Evans, I wish you a full house of children.”

The first sentence of this doesn’t sound like a good thing, does it?

Infertility, a full house of children?!

“As a man, of course, I feel sorry for you, Mr. Pascall, you’re still so young,” Barclay said after drinking, his gaze drifting towards Nydia. “Mainly because Nydia is so young and beautiful, isn’t it that in the future…”

No need to say what he said next, everyone understood.

“If she finds someone more suitable in the future, I will let her go.”

Nydia looked at Jesse in shock.

What’s going on? Is he playing with fire? How will this end in the future?

But she and Jesse had been together for so many years without ever doing it, she really didn’t know if Jesse was capable, could it be…

No, no, his reaction to the leg injury was so intense, if it really wasn’t possible, he wouldn’t even let it be mentioned, how could he casually say this? But a voice still echoed in her heart: What if it really isn’t possible?
