It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 198

Jessica was flustered. She knew the look on Edward's face meant that he was aggravated. She knew that it would be difficult for her to reach her purpose now. She felt the need to break the ice.

"Edward, I propose a toast to you. This is the Hennessy, your favorite drink." Jessica smiled in embarrassment and raised her trembling hand to propose a toast. But the glass of wine accidentally spilled because of Edward's sudden movement. The wine spilled over Edward, he cursed bitterly.

"Shit! Damn! What are you doing?" Edward placed his phone on the table and hurriedly retrieved some tissues to wipe his clothes. He frowned with disgust.

"Sorry. I didn't do it on purpose. Why don't you go to the washroom to clean it up?" said Jessica. She looked at the phone kept on the table by Edward. A cunning smile flashed over her face. Her trick worked. She noticed that Edward had been staring at his phone all the while. So she wondered what was up with his phone.

Edward frowned and walked away. As soon as he disappeared from Jessica's sight, she quickly picked up his phone and unlocked the screen. A graceful woman with a calm demeanor appeared on the screen. She looked gorgeous and divine, a rare beauty indeed.

The woman in the photo wore a long white dress. Her hair was radiantly black and thick, like a waterfall pouring down her shoulders. Her crystal eyes revealed her superior and domineering manner, yet not making people feel offended. 'She looks special. No wonder Edward is attracted to her. But she is nobody. I will wait and see how long their relationship will last.' Jessica thought.

She sneered with ridicule and flipped through his phone records. When she saw that the most frequently dialed number was saved as 'Darling wife', she tightened her grip on the phone and wondered, 'When did the handsome and flirtatious Edward begin to call someone 'Darling wife'? I'm surprised to see such sweet words of endearment on his phone.'

She smiled slyly and saved the number in her phone. She bit her lip and decided to put Edward's phone back on the table. A part of her heart was falling apart now. She patted on her stomach and resumed her spirit. 'No matter what happened, I am determined to win him back. For my unborn child, I won't cave in.' She thought in her heart.

"Coco, don't be so rude when you speak to him. He detests hostile behavior." Jessica walked to Coco and sat down beside her. She didn't want to see her efforts go wasted. She had already made such a fuss about it.

"Jessica, look at his attitude towards you. Are you still determined to marry him?" said Coco, while pouting. She had always behaved like an arrogant queen. She wasn't inclined to undermine herself to flatter anyone, even if it was an extraordinary man like Edward. She would never bow down.

"Yes! I believe Edward is momentarily spellbound by that woman. He will finally come back to me. I know he still loves me. I have been with him for so long. Coco, you must help me." Jessica held Coco's tender hands, pleading.
