The Rose He Showed Off Is Putting Down Roots in a Garden of Her Own novel Chapter 311

Whatever dirty tricks she'd tried pulling afterward had clearly failed, but she mistakenly believed she'd successfully covered her tracks.

That meant her final encounter with Julian Sterling—using the contents of that condom—had actually gotten her pregnant.

Yet she'd been foolish enough to believe she was carrying someone else's child.

Vanessa Quinn couldn't handle the truth. Devastated by regret, she completely shattered, trashing everything in her hospital room.

Meanwhile, Julian had paid her off and simply vanished, never to be seen again.

Seeing her son's dark mood, Sienna Carter tried to comfort him. "Since it's God's will, you just weren't meant to have that child. You need to cut ties with that Quinn woman immediately. If you ask me, she's definitely entertaining other men on the side."

Julian offered a muffled sound of agreement, keeping his thoughts to himself.

Sienna's heart ached for him. After discussing it with her husband, they decided to give Julian a few days off to clear his head abroad.

Still worried he might do something reckless, she warned him, "The women over there aren't like the ones back home. Don't go doing anything foolish while you're away."

As fate would have it, Julian bumped into Jocelyn Yale on his flight.

Noticing his haggard appearance, Jocelyn asked what was wrong.

Julian admitted that he had lost the baby.

Jocelyn's heart skipped a beat. Everything had been fine just a few days ago. Had her meddling advice caused a disaster?

"What happened?" she asked.

Julian let out a heavy sigh, his eyes clouded with regret. "It was an accident. She tumbled down a flight of stairs."

Jocelyn figured he probably blamed his mother, and perhaps even harbored some resentment toward her as well.

It was true what they said—when you offered advice, you had to be prepared for the fallout.

Julian was undeniably heartbroken, but he was far from losing his composure entirely. "What brings you out here?" he asked. "Taking a vacation?"

"There's an international industry summit going on. I'm just here to check it out," Jocelyn replied.

When Julian asked where she was staying, they realized they had booked the exact same resort.

Then again, there were only a handful of truly elite options in the area.
