Chapter 10

She turned around and looked at Blake’s handsome face as he was still asleep. She smirked ironically and then turned back to the moonlight, enjoying it until it disappeared at dawn.

At daybreak, Jessica finally felt sleepy, so she succumbed to slumber but woke up soon after that.

The sun was already up, and the first light shed its brilliance over the floor while the dust danced in its rays.

Jessica took a while to wake up from the dizziness. She was not used to sleeping with Blake. Every time she was in bed with him, she would sleep late and wake up early.

Blake was still asleep, but his arm around her had softened.

Jessica looked at his sleeping face again. Blake’s features were flawless. His brows were thick, his nose was high, and his facial features were pronounced. Everyone in the Fergusons had good looks, but as the son of the first beauty of Beijing, Lady Cecilia, Blake stood out. Be it when he was asleep or when he was awake, he was the perfect man.

Jessica focused her attention on his Adam’s Apple. She found the slight curve in his throat sexy and masculine while his voice was also charming and melodious to the ears. However, his charming voice also widened the distance between them.

Everytime Jessica woke up from his arm, it felt surreal to her.

Maybe it was the surreal feeling that woke her up early. Whenever they curled together after sex, Jessica could never sleep soundly.

She quietly shifted Blake’s arm away from her and softly landed her feet on the floor. Then, she picked up her pajamas and went to the bathroom.

After sex, Jessica would always worry about getting pregnant again because she was afraid of having a second child, but judging from the frequent sex in the past three years, she did not show any signs of pregnancy, so it should be fine.

She looked down and stroked her flat belly. There were no stretch marks or scars on it as if she had never given birth. She had a smooth delivery when she gave birth to Winson.

That day, Old Master Ferguson was sent to the hospital for an emergency operation because his condition had worsened. Everyone in the family waited outside the operation room, except Jessica. She had waited alone in the old Ferguson manor.

For some reason, she gave birth to Winson half a month earlier than the expected delivery date. Maybe Winson was anxious to meet his mother.

Her stomach had been huge back then, so she could not even see her legs when she walked. When she accidentally slipped on a puddle of water, she fell down and the pain prevented her from standing up. Therefore, she was forced to give birth there and then naturally.

Coincidentally, Ms. Susan came back to the old manor to grab some things, and it was then that she saw Jessica lying down in a pool of blood. The scene shocked her badly and she almost passed out, but she managed to quickly call the hospital.

However, it was already too late when the medical personnel arrived. Winson’s legs were already out, so the medical personnel were forced to build a temporary delivery room in the living room.

Furthermore, a Caesarean section was not an option because it would risk the mother’s life. After going through labor for a whole night, Jessica finally delivered the child at dawn. At the same time, Old Master Ferguson’s emergency operation ended, and he came out from the operation room alive.

Therefore, the Fergusons loved Winson for a special reason. Even though the family might welcome another child in the future, the moment Winson was born, he was already selected as the heir of the family.

The Fergusons held Winson in special regard, and so did his mother, Jessica. The excruciating pain during her labor had almost killed her, and right as she wandered at death’s door, the child’s cry had entered her ears, pulling her back from the face of death.

How could she simply abandon her own flesh and blood after such a traumatic delivery?

Jessica’s heart stung. Maybe because she had damaged her body during the first delivery, Blake had no worries about having sex with her.
