Chapter 470 Well Done! (4)
"No, you're injured and need to rest. Besides, don't you find it boring watching me work?"
James didn't want her to stay up late with him.
But Jessica took out her phone and said with a smile, "Seeing myself turned into a novel heroine online is really interesting. Look, these people have such vivid imaginations."
James took a look and saw various speculations about how Jessica and he met, why they divorced, and how he won her back.
Some even turned Jessica's story into a motivational tale about a housewife abandoned by her husband, who then got into a prestigious medical school and was pursued by her ex-husband again.
There were all sorts of stories.
Jessica was engrossed and urged him, "You go ahead and work. I find these quite interesting and haven't had enough yet!"
James chuckled helplessly, then turned serious and asked, "Jessica, do you think what I said to the reporters earlier was just an act?"
Jessica was slightly taken aback and said uncertainly, "I don't know. Even if it was an act, I wouldn't blame you. I promised grandpa I would protect you, so I will cooperate."
James's deep eyes were filled with sincerity as he firmly said, "Listen to me, I wasn't acting, and I wasn't joking. I'm serious. Jessica, please trust me one more time, okay?"
Jessica's eyes reddened slightly, and she choked up, "Okay, I trust you."
James ruffled her hair gently and said softly, "Alright, keep looking at your phone. If you get tired, go sleep in my resting room."
While James handled his work, Jessica curled up on the sofa, continuing to read the stories people had made up about her and James, finding it somewhat addictive.
Just then, Lily called, excitedly saying, "Jessica, what's going on? I used to find James so annoying! My God, I never thought he would publicly clarify your relationship like that! He did a good job!"
Jessica, feeling a bit shy, whispered, "Let's chat on Facebook. He's working overtime now, and I don't want to disturb him."
"Staying up late to keep him company? And chatting on Facebook? Afraid my call will disturb someone, huh?"
Lily couldn't help but tease, "You're really good at keeping secrets. When did you get back together with James without letting a word slip?"
Jessica felt embarrassed and mumbled, "Stop teasing me. I'll tell you everything later. There are still a lot of things to sort out."
Lily, full of enthusiasm, said, "By the way, isn't Jacob coming back soon? I think our parents will discuss our wedding plans this time. Tell James that if he wants to remarry you, he must have a wedding! We can have a joint wedding; it'll be so lively!"
Jessica wasn't thinking as far ahead as Lily. Whenever she thought about the future, Rose and that child were always a thorn in her heart.
No matter how good James was to her, some things had already happened and couldn't be erased.
She was very clear about that.
