My Domineering CEO Husband

York had no choice but to give in.

Along the way, the doctor gave him a long lesson about philosophies in life, such as why one should cherish the one he loved.

York couldn’t refute and listen to his advice obediently and helplessly.

Richeal was asked by Ralph to come over and listen to the doctor’s instructions. When she saw York’s expression, she was secretly pleased.

When they were aware of all the things to do and returned to the ward, they found that Jessica had woken up.

Lottie solemnly apologized to her with her three children.

Jessica sat on the bed with a pale face. The injury on her back made it difficult for her to even lean against the bed. Even when she wanted to sleep, she could only lie with her face down.

She didn’t care at all when she heard Lottie’s apology.

“I made my own choice. Fortunately, nothing happened to Stella. Otherwise, I would have regretted it!”

Jessica said that it was her suggestion to come out for dinner. She was also afraid that something bad would happen to Stella.

She had never felt that this was Lottie’s fault. She could only blame herself for being unlucky.

“Aunt Jessica, thank you so much!”

Stella handed over a bunch of flowers. Just now, when Jessica was still sleeping, as a gift to say sorry, she had made these flowers with her brother. Daddy and Mommy had also helped.

“We did it ourselves. I hope you don’t mind. I hope you can recover as soon as possible and give birth to a baby safely.”

As a child, Stella remembered the doctor’s words in mind and showed her concern. She wanted to give Jessica the best blessing as she thought.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Jessica was frozen.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She stared straight at Stella with sharp eyes.

“What did you just say?”

Stella was shocked by the sharp look in her eyes and subconsciously hid behind Lottie.

Lottie quickly protected her daughter, and then looked at Jessica with an embarrassed expression.

After thinking for a while, she finally chose to tell the truth. “Jessica, you have been pregnant for more than two months. The doctor just checked it out. Do you know it yourself?”

At that moment, Jessica’s face turned pale.

She tightened her grip on the sheet, and the infusion noodle almost dropped.

Seeing this, Lottie hurried forward and pushed away Jessica’s hand. “The blood is about to flow back. Relax.”

Jessica looked at Lottie and obediently loosen her tightly clenched fist.

However, she still looked pale.

“About this child… do you want to talk to me?”

Jessica looked at Lottie and then at the others in the ward, still silent.

Lottie said, “Ralph, could you please take the children and Connie out first? I’ll talk to her alone, okay?”

Ralph frowned slightly. He was a little worried.

At this moment, he couldn’t rest assured as long as Lottie was out of his sight.

Lottie pushed Ralph away and said softly, “Stay at the door. I’ll be fine.”

Ralph reluctantly agreed.

The group of people was about to leave. Violet hesitated for a moment, then looked back at Jessica and asked softly, “Can I stay?”

Lottie looked at Jessica and asked for her opinion.

Jessica gave a wry smile and said, “OK.”

Violet nodded and the others left. Only the three of them were left in the ward.

Lottie came over and closed the ward door. She did not forget to remind Elijah and Ralph, “Don’t eavesdrop.”

Elijah and Fabian exchanged glances. The latter nodded unwillingly.

In fact, they were quite curious about what was going on with Aunt Jessica’s baby.

Ralph also agreed, indicating that he would not eavesdrop.

Only then did Lottie feel satisfied. She closed the door and walked toward Jessica.

“What the hell is going on? Jessica, aren’t you single?”

Jessica didn’t speak for a long time.

Lottie turned around and poured a glass of hot water for Jessica, gently placing it on the table next to her.

Jessica thanked her. When her fingers touched the warm glass, she felt much warmer than before.

Finally, she plucked up her courage and said, “I don’t know who the father of the child is.”

Violet and Lottie looked at her in surprise.

Jessica looked at their surprised eyes and smiled wryly.

“You must think it’s incredible,” said Jessica. “But I had no choice at that time.”

“What do you mean by that? Have you been bullied?” Lottie said seriously.

Jessica tightened her grip on the cup, and blue veins stood up on the back of her hand.

“Violet, sometimes I really envy you.”

Because of her past experiences, Violet was very sensitive and immediately looked up to Jessica.

She couldn’t help but hold her arm. “Did something bad happen to you? Like my sister.”

Jessica smiled wanly. “No, I’m much more despicable than your sister.”

Her words made the ward suddenly be so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.

“I did it voluntarily.”

Helen had been deceived by Bridge, but Helen herself was unwilling.

But she was willing to do something like this and wanted to take revenge on her family with her own destruction.

However, in the end, the only person she could take revenge on was herself.

Except for herself, no one cared what happened to her in the end.

Lottie looked at Jessica’s expression and felt that there was something else behind it.

“What happened to you at that time?” Lottie looked at her sternly. “Jessica, if you still think we are friends, then tell us everything that happened to you, so that we can help you.”

“That’s really embarrassing.” Jessica looked at Lottie. “You know, not everyone is as pure and selfless as you are.”

There were complicated emotions in Jessica’s eyes.

“Sometimes, I really envy you.”

They were clearly the same kind of person, so how could Lottie live so happily?

She had her husband who doted on her, well-behaved and lovely children, and so many sincere friends around her.

She had money, power, and status. Most importantly, she had so many families who really loved her.

This Lottie was practically the winner of her life.

But Jessica had nothing.

No future, no family, no love, and no friends.

What she had was only a piece of miserable past which was like trash that no one cared about, releasing an astonishing stench.

Lottie wasn’t unfamiliar with this kind of gaze at all.

Everyone was envious of her current life, but they didn’t know how she had suffered.

If the one who looked at her with such a look was a stranger who didn’t know her well, she would absolutely ignore her.

But now, the person who looked at her like this was her good friend who had just saved her daughter.

Lottie took a deep breath and asked Jessica, “Do you find it difficult to calm down?”

Jessica was stunned for a moment. She lowered her head to deliberate her words and suddenly nodded.

“It’s indeed hard for me to calm down,” said Jessica. “Because I should have had a life like yours.”
