Chapter 318 Full of Him
"Get over here!" Jackson glanced at Lillian and said coldly.
It wasn't until Jackson's cold voice rang out that Lillian was convinced it was true.
'Does this count as Jackson giving in to me?' Lillian thought.
Her recent annoyance and discomfort dissipated significantly.
She felt a mix of sourness and sweetness in her heart.
Lillian walked over, raised her hand to take the cigarette from Jackson's fingers, and said, "Jackson, this is a no-smoking area in the hospital. Besides, smoking is bad for your injuries!"
Jackson raised his hand and said, "Pregnant women like you should avoid smoke, too!"
"Then why are you still smoking?" Lillian huffed.
Jackson broke the cigarette and crushed it in his palm.
He walked a few steps to the trash can and threw the cigarette butt in, then said coldly, "It's all because you make me upset!"
Lillian walked up to him with her hands behind her back, looked up at him, and asked, "Jackson, were you just jealous?"
She held her breath, hope gleaming in her eyes.
Jackson's lips twitched slightly as he replied, "Yes!"
His admission was so straightforward and firm.
Lillian's heart felt like it was illuminated by a thousand rays of light, so bright and cheerful.
She smiled joyfully, her face a bit flushed and her heart racing.
At that moment, Jackson suddenly pulled Lillian into his arms, looking down at her. "You are my wife. If you hug and cuddle with other men, shouldn't I, as your husband, be jealous?"
His tone gradually turned cold as he added, "Lillian, this is the last time!"
She thought, 'So, it is just because I am his wife, not because of who I am.'
Lillian hid her disappointment, nodded, and explained, "Jackson, I accidentally fell asleep just now and thought the person next to me was you."
Jackson thought of the scene earlier and was still very angry. He lifted Lillian's chin and asked, "Do you like him?"
Lillian was stunned, then shook her head frantically in shock. "How could that be! There's nothing between Barry and me, and I don't like him. How could you think I like Barry?"
Jackson sneered. "Barry coveted you back then and even dared to come to the Frane Family to propose. In the past two years, he has been working at the Frane Family's private hospital, trying to get close to you. You even kissed in the car before. You hid your pregnancy from me, wanted a divorce, and planned to go abroad with Barry. Just now, you even leaned into his arms. With all this, what am I supposed to think?"
Jackson's fingers tightened on Lillian's chin, pulling her slender neck into a nearly breaking arc.
Lillian looked at the conflicted Jackson in a daze, listening to what he said, and felt that his reasoning made some sense.
She felt guilty and asked, "When did I kiss Barry?"
"Do you need me to remind you? In the car downstairs at Shirley's apartment." Jackson sneered. He had seen it from the shadows that night.
Barry leaned in to kiss Lillian, who was sitting in the passenger seat, and she didn't push him away.
Although it was just a brief kiss, at that moment, he felt consumed by jealousy!
At that time, he hadn't even properly kissed her.
Lillian thought carefully and remembered that it did happen. Later, Jackson had pinned her in the dark hallway, and she had slapped him.
At that time, she thought he had cheated on her with Wendy during their marriage and wanted a divorce, and he had humiliated her with his words, so she didn't explain.
Now, Lillian found it both funny and exasperating. She explained, "I didn't kiss him. That day, my clothes got caught in the seatbelt buckle, and Barry was helping me unbuckle it!"
When Jackson heard Lillian's explanation, the coldness and gloom in his eyes gradually dissipated.
However, Jackson's expression remained tense. He suddenly tightened his embrace and said, "Mrs. Frane, from now on, you can't like anyone but me!"
He could let go of whoever Lillian loved before, no longer care.
But now, since she was carrying his child and had decided to stay by his side, he wouldn't allow her to have any other thoughts!
Lillian found Jackson's words strange.
She loved him so much, and her heart and mind were full of him.
