His Precious Love novel Chapter 600

Chapter 600

Seeing Kristie gaping at him, James said, “Why don't I get the medicine from Jeremy again and consume it before you? Then, you'll be able to see Samson again a few hours later.”

Kristie didn't respond.

She finally understood what he was saying around ten minutes later.

She followed him from the bedroom to the kitchen and looked at him as he cooked. Kristie couldn't help but feel surreal, staring at his muscular arms and chiseled facial features.

Sprawling on the table, she asked him again, “So, this is your original appearance?”

“Yes.”

“Why did you have to change into that look, then? Why didn't you tell me? I thought you were two different people!”

“Jeremy forbade me from divulging that information.”

“Is Jeremy your god? I'm your girlfriend. How could you keep me in the dark?” Kristie felt depressed for a short while. Suddenly, she stuck her hand into his shirt and groped his body, thinking how great the sensation was.

Her eyes shone. “Wow. Your muscles are more well-defined. This is awesome!”

“Stop touching me.” James couldn't endure such temptation so early in the morning, so he brushed her hand aside.

However, less than two seconds later, she approached him again and touched him all over.

“You're better looking in this form, after all.” Kristie no longer felt guilty after knowing the two men she fancied were the same person. She whispered, “Now that you've become younger, are there any other aspects of you that improved too?”

After being with her for so long, James could fathom the meaning behind her peculiar questions almost instantaneously.

He turned around and regarded her with a cynical smile. “Are you saying that I haven't been satisfying you previously?”

“That's not what I meant...”

He swept her up in his arms and strode toward the bedroom. “We don't have to go anywhere today anyway, so we'll have dinner instead when we're done.”

Kristie was rendered speechless.

Upon returning to the country, Rayna was swamped as before.

Curtis was in charge of handling Faymon Group and its subsidiaries while she managed Glory and Sanders Group. Her schedule was jam-packed almost every day as she had to attend endless meetings while monitoring the progress of a few projects.

Fortunately, the situation at Yartran had stabilized, and Ringo's presence at Terblanc Group reassured her.

Rayna didn't have to worry about her three children either, as their nanny and housekeeper took care of them.

Whenever Curtis and Rayna could take a break, they would personally care for their kids and bring them out for an excursion.

Curtis' heart ached whenever he saw how tired she was. He wanted to bring her on vacation, but she wasn't in the mood to go on holiday.

One day, Jasmine called Rayna and asked the latter to visit her at the hospital.

When Rayna arrived at the hospital and entered the ward, she noticed a woman sitting beside the bed with her back facing the door. That woman had long hair, and her huge pregnancy bump bulged beneath her clothes. It was apparent that she was close to her due date.

“Rayna.” Jasmine flashed a mysterious smile at Rayna. “Look who's here.”

Still oblivious to that woman's identity, Rayna placed the fruit basket on the cabinet and asked cheerily, “Is this your friend?”

Jasmine grinned without saying a word.

The pregnant woman sitting in the chair stood up and turned around to face Rayna. Her facial features were arranged into a warm and gentle smile. “Nana.”

Rayna stared at her in a daze and remained stunned for a long while.

A few minutes later, she finally blinked and reached out to hug the pregnant woman while choking out her words, “You didn't even call me once in the past few months. How could you be so mean!”

“That's enough. What's there to cry about?” Rayna's reaction prompted Jessica to be on the verge of tears as well. Jessica patted Rayna's back and said, “I know you're very busy, so I didn't want to disturb you. Besides, I'm fine.”

“Still, that is not an excuse for you to keep me worrying.” Rayna helped her to get seated.

Rayna could finally relax and rest assured after feeling worried and losing sleep for a few months.

She crouched down to stroke Jessica's stomach while smiling dazzlingly. “Are you carrying a boy or a girl?”

“He's a boy.” Jessica tucked her hair behind her ear and uttered in resignation, “He was so annoying for always kicking me a few months ago and making a ruckus inside my stomach.”

A disappointed look spread across Rayna's face. “If you were pregnant with a baby girl, I planned to arrange a childhood marriage between my son, Yosef, and your daughter. But that's all right. He can spend more time playing with Reni in the future.”

Jasmine couldn't help but pipe up, “You should forget that idea. Judging by Wyatt's personality, I think...”

The three women fell silent at the same time, then burst out laughing simultaneously.

Jessica caressed her stomach and said helplessly, “I can only try my best, but there's nothing much I can do if the boy's character doesn't resemble mine.”

Jasmine teased, “In that case, there's really nothing you can do. A child's personality usually takes after their father.”

Rayna glanced at her and smirked. “That's enough from you. I don't think Carl is much better. He's always staring at Yellie. Has he never seen a girl before?”

Jasmine admitted defeat by raising her hands. “Let's not speak further of this and change to another topic of discussion. I'm still quite fond of acquiring this daughter-in-law.”

Jessica giggled while covering her mouth.

They chatted inside the ward for the entire morning. Rayna also spared some time to contact Jeremy and asked him to come over.

Jeremy was shocked when he arrived at the hospital and saw Jessica. However, he quickly recollected himself and recommended one of his friends in the obstetrics and gynecology department to examine Jessica's condition. Rayna waited for her outside the consultation room.

Staring at the consultation room with his arms crossed, Jeremy sighed. “All these guys are getting married and having kids. Even Wyatt is lucky enough to be blessed with a new family. Why am I still single?”

“You're so busy, so I'm certain you don't have time to look for a girlfriend.” Rayna was reminded of someone as she smiled. “I have a friend with a work-life balance that may be compatible with yours. Why don't you try to hit her up?”

Jeremy was momentarily dazed before chirping, “Since when did you establish a matchmaking business?”

“I just don't want you to still be single when we get married. That'll be too pathetic.” Rayna took out her phone. “I've already sent her contact details to you, but I think she'll be quite occupied lately.”

Jeremy trusted Rayna's judgment. He knew he couldn't be focused on his work all the time, so he accepted her kind gesture.

She kept her phone and asked casually, “How's Stella?”

Realizing Rayna was informed of that matter, Jeremy decided to come clean. “She's restless and always thinking of ways to escape, so she's being kept under watch. She's pregnant with a baby girl, and the fetal development is well.”

“Mr. Tylinski should be delighted.” Rayna sighed. “Let me know when she's delivering the baby.”

Jeremy nodded.

It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon when Jessica was done undergoing the thorough prenatal care checkup.

The obstetrician said Jessica's due date had arrived and hoped she could be hospitalized immediately. As her pelvis was sufficiently wide, and she was in good physical condition, Jessica could just wait for the right time to deliver the baby in the hospital.

Rayna arranged for Jessica to be admitted to the hospital, but the latter didn't stay. “My due date is here, but that doesn't mean I'll be giving birth in these two days. I want to meet with Wyatt.”

“Why do you need to meet with him? I reckon he's fooling around somewhere!” Rayna had yet to forgive Wyatt for what he did. She uttered coldly, “You should stay in the hospital and wait for the baby to be born!”

Jessica held Rayna's hand and smiled. “Nana! Let bygones be bygones. I'm fine, aren't I? Even if I don't go there, he'll come here eventually.”

Rayna kept quiet.

Jessica promised her, “After meeting with him, I'll ask him to send me back to the hospital tomorrow and wait for the baby to be born. Don't worry.”

Rayna was still furious, but she couldn't convince Jessica otherwise. In the end, she sent the latter to the club.

The time was around six o'clock in the evening, and the day had yet to turn dark, so there weren't many customers at the club. Jessica asked the manager about Wyatt's whereabouts, and after she was informed that he wasn't there, she told the manager to book a private room for her.

Jessica had been traveling the whole day and had just returned to Norwal City, so she felt exhausted as her body couldn't handle that much strenuous activity.
