Chapter 507 When Will You Finally Accept Me? (1)
One sentence shattered the sweet atmosphere in the car.
James tightened his grip on the steering wheel and repeated, "I've already told you, she and the child will stay abroad. I won't let her come back and disrupt your life. Jessica, you are my only wife."
Jessica's lips curved bitterly.
What was she still hoping for?
Rose's child was already so big; how could he not want it?
After all, it was a living, breathing little life.
She swallowed all her words.
James sighed in disappointment and didn't bring up the topic of getting back together again.
Rose remained an insurmountable chasm between them.
He wished so much that Jessica could let go and accept this already established fact.
But for now, it seemed she was still very resistant.
Perhaps, it could only be left to time.
Jessica changed the subject, saying, "By the way, I'm going back to the hospital for my internship tomorrow. I need to apply for graduate school next month, so I have to prepare and learn more in clinical practice."
James asked, "Have you decided on a major?"
Jessica cautiously glanced at his expression and said, "Cardiothoracic surgery."
James's handsome brows furrowed instinctively, and he asked, "You want to be Nathan's graduate student?"
Jessica hesitated for a moment, fearing he might interfere, and said, "Professor Howard's graduate program is very hard to get into. Many people are competing, and those from top schools in Auroravale are much better than me. I definitely won't get in."
James coldly said, "You should apply to other professors. Nathan, I can't accept you being his student."
Jessica knew he was naturally domineering and possessive, but she didn't want to be a puppet in his hands, controlled by him.
However, after being with James for a long time, she had learned some tricks. Confronting James would never yield any benefits.
So, she agreed for now, not wanting to upset him.
Seeing her agree so readily, James's mood improved significantly.
That night.
While taking a shower, Jessica noticed her lower abdomen had become noticeably more pronounced compared to before.
She was startled. At this rate, James would find out in less than a month.
After her shower, Jessica deliberately put on a very loose nightgown to cover her slightly protruding belly.
Fortunately, James didn't think much of it and enthusiastically called her over to choose wedding photos.
She sat on the bed, flipping through their wedding photos with James.
In the end, she chose more than twenty photos that she particularly liked.
Looking at the sacred wedding dress on Jessica, James couldn't help but exclaim, "Jessica, you look so beautiful."
Jessica blushed shyly and said, "You look very handsome too."
James suddenly felt a surge of emotion and was about to kiss her when Jessica warily dodged.
James's eyes darkened, and he suddenly pulled her into his arms, his deep gaze fixed on her. "Jessica, when will you finally accept me?"
"Give me some time."
Jessica looked at him pitifully and said, "You're hurting me."
James immediately lightened his grip but didn't let go.
His eyes revealed an undeniable desire as he said, "I've already given you a lot of time, but we can't go on like this forever. Jessica, I'm a man. I respect you and give you time because I love you. But no man can always remain calm and abstinent with the one he loves!"
