Chapter 392 Taking Her as a Student (2)
I thought that this year, James would be taken away by that little bitch Jessica, but unexpectedly, after all the twists and turns, I ended up spending this birthday with James.
Rose was overjoyed but pretended to be worried, saying, "Miss Evans seems to have misunderstood."
James said coldly, "A misunderstanding is a misunderstanding. What does it have to do with me?"
"Yeah, you two don't have any relationship anymore."
Rose deliberately reminded him.
James tightened his grip on the steering wheel, sped up the car, and drove Rose home.
He even took off his jacket and went straight to the bathroom to run a bath.
Rose asked in surprise and delight, "James, are you staying tonight to be with me and the baby?"
"Yes." He responded deeply, "Don't you have a prenatal checkup tomorrow? I happen to have time to go with you."
Rose said emotionally, "You still remember my checkup date?"
James said apologetically, "I'm sorry for neglecting you lately and making you feel wronged. But I won't shirk or forget the responsibilities I should bear."
Whether or not he marries Rose, this child is his future responsibility.
Rose felt increasingly fortunate that the car accident she had caused back then didn't harm the baby in her womb.
Otherwise, wouldn't she have no connection with James at all?
Rose secretly decided that now that James's heart was finally leaning towards her, she had to take this opportunity to win over Gerald's heart as well.
She couldn't believe that Gerald, on his deathbed, wouldn't want a great-grandson and wouldn't want his descendants to prosper!
Moreover, when Gerald passes away, the person appearing at the funeral must not be Jessica!
Otherwise, it would be like announcing to everyone that Jessica is the legitimate Mrs. Kelly, and she is still the one without a title.
Rose thought that if she could win Gerald's favor and appear at the funeral rightfully, it would be equivalent to The Kelly Family acknowledging her existence in another way.
But she had already tested James several times, and he wouldn't let her see Gerald, nor let Gerald know about her pregnancy.
To avoid arousing James's resentment, Rose had to think of other ways and dared not show any sign of it in front of James.
Jessica returned to the duty room feeling desolate.
Even though she deliberately lightened her steps, Nathan still knew she had been out for a long time.
So, did she go after that man?
Nathan closed his eyes, his brows furrowed.
What was wrong with him?
Why was he paying attention to a student's private life for no reason?
He had so many students, why did he care about Jessica in particular?
Night shifts in the cardiothoracic department were often very busy, staying up all night.
But for some reason, this night shift was particularly quiet, so quiet it was frightening.
Unfortunately, none of them slept, each lost in their own thoughts.
Finally, dawn arrived. Jessica got up early, washed up quickly, and went to the office.
She prepared the materials needed for today's surgeries in advance and waited for Nathan to wake up to get his signature.
"Professor Howard, these two patients need surgery today."
Jessica noticed that Nathan didn't look well and cautiously asked, "Did you not rest well last night?"
Nathan indeed hadn't slept all night and now had a severe headache.
He said lightly, "Cancel both surgeries today. Notify the operating room and reschedule them for tomorrow."
