Accidentally Pregnant After Divorcing The Billionaire (Jonathan and Teresa) novel Chapter 244

44.Chapter 244

Cathy was startled and quickly asked Donald, “What do you mean by that? Don’t tell me you’ve gotten her pregnant.” “Mom, no way! I’m not that kind of guy, Donald replied.

“Listen, I just want to remind you, we don’t do the whole unwed pregnancy thing in this family. If Jennifer ends up pregnant, you have to take responsibility for her. Our family has always been about doing the right thing, Cathy said.

Donald said, “I know, Mom. Jennifer and I aren’t at that stage yet. I just like her souch that I can’t help but imagine marrying her and having kids with her.”

Cathy couldn’t help but laugh a little, both amused and touched by his enthusiasm. She held his hand and said, “I’ve never seen you so crazy about someone before.”

Donald said, “Yeah, I like her so much that I am determined to marry her.”

Cathy said with a smile, “If you get married, I’ll finally be able to cross one thing off my list. Then it’ll be Cheryl’s turn to settle down. Once you both have your own families, I can finally retire and enjoy spoiling my grandkids.”

Donald smiled warmly and said, “Mom, that day will come sooner than you think.”

“Alright, I’ll be waiting for it,” Cathy replied, her eyes filled with anticipation.

A nurse from another bed rushed over, her voice urgent as she called for Heidi and Irene, “Something’s wrong!”

Gordon, who had just woken up, clung tightly to Jennifer’s sleeve. His eyes locked onto the “Nelson” on Jennifer’s name badge, and his emotions spiraled out of control. He muttered, “Fiona. Where is she? Why is her name on you?”

Jennifer said, “Sir, please calm down. I don’t know anyone named Fiona. Let go of me.”

Gordon insisted, “Give Fiona back to me! I need her! My Fiona!”

Just then, Irene and Heidi walked over. They pried Gordon’s hands off and guided him to the bed. Irene explained to Jennifer, “I’m so sorry. This is my dad. He’s been battling Alzheimer’s for years.”

Heidi grabbed Gordon’s arm firmly. She glanced at Jennifer and said, “You’d better stay away from my dad. He’s unpredictable. He might hit or even bite.”

“It’s fine,” Jennifer replied calmly, brushing off her sleeve. Though startled, she remained composed. This was nothing compared to what she had endured as a child.

Gordon, however, was far from calm. His eyes were wild, and his agitation grew by the second. Irene and Heidi struggled to restrain him. Just then, Jonathan walked in.

Jonathan pulled out a photo of Fiona that Irene had given him and handed it to Gordon. He said, “Grandpa, look, here’s Grandma.”

Gordon snatched the photo, his trembling hands clutching it tightly. His frantic expression softened as he stared at the image. At last, he quieted down.

From where Jennifer stood, all she could see was Gordon holding the photo, grinning. The picture itself was obscured, save for a yellowed corner peeking out. Jennifer turned and left the room. She thought, ‘Whoever Fiona is, it has nothing to do with me.’

After calming down the restless Gordon, Irene stopped Jonathan just as he was about to leave. She said, “Come with me, I need to talk to you.”

Jonathan didn’t reply and just followed Irene out.
