Chapter 511 Telling Him About the Pregnancy (1)
Nathan's face looked a bit grim. After all, James was Jessica's ex-husband.
Even though Jessica said she was divorced, such a young and beautiful Jessica still had a deeply memorable past with James in front of him.
Nathan's gaze was not as calm and gentle as usual; instead, it hinted at coldness. He said indifferently, "Jessica is my student. How I teach my students doesn't seem to require your opinion, Mr. Kelly."
James's eyes were burning with sparks, and an invisible tension was brewing between the two men.
Jessica quickly ran to James and whispered, "What are you talking about? I chose to work overtime myself. Mr. Howard didn't ask me to."
James glanced coldly at Nathan and said, "Well then, Professor Howard, please teach my wife during work hours and don't delay our time together."
With that, he grabbed Jessica's hand and was about to leave.
Nathan knew that in his current position, he could only watch as James took her away. He didn't even have the right to stop them.
But Nathan couldn't stand James's arrogant attitude. After all, he had never been treated like this before.
So, before they left, Nathan said meaningfully, "Mr. Kelly, Jessica has been having stomach issues and vomiting frequently. I know you're a business elite, busy making money, but sometimes you need to care for your wife. It's best to take her to see a doctor before it gets worse."
One sentence left James utterly humiliated.
He glared at Nathan with hatred and left the cardiology department with Jessica.
Outside the office, Jessica struggled to free her hand and looked at him angrily.
James thought of Nathan's words and asked, "What's wrong with you? Is it true that you've been vomiting frequently?"
He felt a bit guilty. Nathan had only been with Jessica for a short time and already knew she was often vomiting.
But what about him?
He had never cared about these things.
Jessica didn't dare to look at James's sharp gaze, afraid that he would see through her guilt.
She said nervously, "I'm fine. It's just that the weather has been cold lately, and I caught a chill."
Although James disliked Nathan, he was at least a medical expert. Since he said that, Jessica's condition definitely needed further examination.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be at ease.
So, he held Jessica's hand and said as they walked, "Let's go home first. I'll take you for a check-up tomorrow morning."
Jessica felt very nervous.
She resisted and said, "I know my own body. There's nothing wrong. I don't need a check-up. I'll just take some stomach medicine when I get home."
James looked at her suspiciously and said, "It's just a check-up. Why are you so nervous?"
"I'm not nervous."
Jessica swallowed hard, trying to suppress her anxiety.
To avoid arousing James's suspicion, she didn't dare to argue with him anymore.
On the way.
Jessica looked at the road outside and said, "This isn't the way home."
James drove and said, "Yeah, we're going to your place."
Jessica was even more puzzled and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to go to my place?"
