Ex-Husband’s Regret: Barren Mommy Has Quadruplets novel Chapter 420

Chapter 420 Captivating and Neglecting

Upon hearing Aletta’s request, Lewis’s face immediately turned serious.

Without hesitation, he firmly rejected it. “It’s best not to for now. One injection was already the limit. The previous injection was necessary, but you have no idea what kind of suffering you might endure if you have another one. I can’t guarantee what might happen with a second injection!”

Jock, who was standing nearby, also advised, “Aletta, Lewis is right. You shouldn’t act recklessly.”

Kirk expressed her concern; her expression was filled with worry. “No matter what, we should put your health as a priority.”

Even Gene nodded in agreement.

They formed a united front, opposing Aletta’s request for another injection.

In truth, Aletta understood their concerns.

After hearing their words, she gave up on the idea.

It seemed that it was not feasible.

Jock couldn’t help but blurt out what she was thinking, “You should just tell Jason! Jason has experienced countless storms and hardships; how could he be unable to bear this?”

“I also think you’re underestimating him!” Kirk unexpectedly chimed in.

“I didn’t think that way! I concealed it from him before because I

thought we still had a chance, that maybe we could find a solution. But now…”

Aletta sighed. “I intended to tell him last night, but we were interrupted by someone.”

The courage she had mustered was shattered with the arrival of Eaton.

The others didn’t know what else to say.

Continuing the conversation on this topic would only make it heavier, so Aletta changed the subject. “How is the progress?”

Lewis composed himself and said, “The development of the antidote is ongoing, but progress is slow. Therefore, we have decided to focus on improving the suppressant drug and minimize its side effects and buy you more time.”

He paused for a moment before adding, “If you’re worried about Jason, find a way to make him return to France first.”

After the drug was developed, there would be an experimental stage.

Since there were no other patients with a similar condition like Aletta, the drug would be directly used on her.

No one would know what might happen during this process.

Aletta listened and felt that Lewis’s words made sense, so she nodded in agreement.

After leaving the lab, Aletta returned to her office to meet Jason.

As she entered, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of reluctance.

He had just arrived, and now he had to leave again.

She pushed the door open, and Jason, upon hearing the sound, immediately noticed the expression on her face.

“What’s wrong?” he asked, unable to contain his curiosity. “Did something happen?”

Aletta walked up to him and said, “Lewis just told me that we have to accelerate the research progress, and I can’t just laze around anymore. So, I won’t be able to spend time with you and the children as much.”

“Is that why you’re feeling down?” Jason couldn’t help but laugh after hearing her explanation.

He pinched Aletta’s finger and said, “It’s okay, you focus on your work, don’t worry about us. We don’t need you to be with us all the time.”

“But I always want to be with you every moment… When you’re here, I get distracted,” Aletta replied, hooking her slender finger with his and swaying it.

After hearing this, Jason’s eyes deepened, and he pulled her hand with force.

In the next second, Aletta fell onto his lap.

She didn’t resist.

“I didn’t expect you to be so clingy,” Jason teased her with a smile, pinching her face gently. His actions carried an indescribable affection and indulgence.

Aletta nodded, leaning in and hugging his neck, burying her head in the crook of his neck, muttering, “Am I not allowed to be clingy?”

Jason held her in his arms in a pleasant mood and said in a deep voice, “Of course, it’s allowed!”

He couldn’t ask for more…
