Chapter 450 The One Who Should Leave Is You! (2)
"Here are the egg tarts you wanted."
He placed the food container on the table and patiently fed her, "Be careful, it's hot."
Jessica was somewhat lost in this happiness and said, "Did you wait in line for a long time? Your ears are all red from the cold."
James smiled and said, "You're so considerate. As long as you love it, I'll wait as long as it takes."
Jessica took a bite and indeed, it was as fresh as before.
After a while, she bit her lip in hesitation, as if she had something to say.
She spoke softly, "Just now, Professor Howard came by."
James was a bit surprised because he didn't expect her to tell him voluntarily.
Jessica took out the ointment he had given her and explained, "He heard from the ER doctors that I was injured, so he came to see me and brought me some scar removal ointment."
Her honesty made the anger in James's heart dissipate.
He glanced at the ointment and said to her, "I'll buy you a better one, okay?"
Jessica couldn't help but laugh, "This ointment is already very good, probably imported. But you are really petty."
James pretended to be angry and said, "Say that again! Are you trying to provoke me on purpose?"
As he spoke, he started to tickle her.
"Ah! James."
Jessica dodged and laughed, "You are petty!"
Later, it was unclear who made the first move, but the laughter gradually stopped, and James was already on top of her.
The warm yellow light outlined Jessica's figure, making her look warm and captivating.
James gazed at Jessica beneath him, mesmerized, and slowly kissed her lips.
Jessica gently closed her eyes, feeling his warmth.
He pressed closer and closer.
Until his warm hands slipped under her clothes, Jessica suddenly woke up and pushed him away.
The doctor had already said that they must not do such things in the first three months, as it could harm the baby.
James felt a sudden chill and asked, somewhat disappointed, "What's wrong?"
Jessica immediately pouted and said, "You're pressing on my wound, it hurts."
James's Adam's apple moved slightly, and he restrained his desire, saying, "Sorry."
Then, he gently stroked the white bandage, his eyes filled with pain and guilt.
Jessica finally breathed a sigh of relief.
There was always a string in her heart. She could do anything for James, even die for him.
But she couldn't be the other woman, couldn't share a man with someone else.
This was her bottom line!
Even though Jessica cherished the warmth and his gentle care now.
But she knew everything, she knew that all of this would end one day.
She turned around, with her back to him, not wanting him to see her sadness.
James hugged her from behind and said, "Are you mad? Sorry Jessica, I said I would respect you, and I won't force you."
Jessica shook her head and said softly, "No, I'm just a bit tired."
"Okay, then you sleep. I'll stay here and watch over you."
James turned off the light and sat on the sofa, watching the sleeping Jessica, feeling particularly at ease.
Thinking about what Jack did to her today, James's gaze grew colder and darker, like a demon from hell.
The next day, Kelly Corporation was in an uproar.
