Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Jessica felt a sense of deja vu when she slowly opened her eyes and was immediately greeted by a white ceiling.
“Am I in a hospital again?” She muttered to herself as she remembered that she also saw a similar ceiling not long ago.At that time, she suddenly fainted in her office, and Tammy immediately took her to a hospital. That day, she finally discovered the truth about her condition, and she was so shocked that she even took a week off just to reorganize her jumbled thoughts. Unfortunately, even after a week had passed, her mind was still chaotic, and it got worse when she was suddenly invited to dinner at Noah's mother's house tonight."Right. I should be at his mother's house, right? Why am I at the hospital instead?"“You're here because you passed out again, you idiot!”Jessica's body jolted when she heard a familiar voice. Previously, she only saw a white ceiling because she was lying in a hospital bed, but then she turnedRelated chapters
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 140. Who Is The Father?
Their parents probably thought that Noah was too shocked and needed to process everything before he could truly feel the overflowing happiness in his heart because of the good news. They probably also thought that Noah wanted to be alone with his wife so that the two of them could celebrate the good news in private, and that was why they left the ward without hesitation after hearing the man's request. Currently, there were only Jessica who was still lying on the hospital bed, and Noah who was still standing next to the bed in the ward. The air between them felt tight and oppressive, and Jessica even felt fear in her heart when the man didn't say anything. "Who is the father?" Noah's deep voice finally broke the silence in the room. Jessica didn't look surprised by the question. After all, she already suspected that the man chose to stay with her alone in the room not because he wanted to celebrate the good news, but instead, he surely wanted
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 141. The Antagonist
She felt like the antagonist in this cheap drama. First, she played with another man behind her husband's back until she became pregnant, and second, she even deliberately forced her husband to play with her in order to protect her father's health. She even used the land in Wisconsin as a bargaining chip, knowing that Noah was tempted by it from the start. She was even willing to give up everything as long as her father didn't suddenly have a heart attack and leave the world forever, and her strategy worked because Noah agreed to cooperate with her this time. However, before she could get a “yes” from him, she needed to convince him first. Noah kept asking her about the father of her child, and she just answered that the man who got her pregnant was just a one-night stand, and that man definitely wouldn't care even if she ended up getting pregnant because of him. When Jessica stated that answer, she looked so confident and didn't even try to avoid Noah'
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 142. Should I Move Out Now?
"What? Why does your wife have to live here again, Noh? Doesn't she already have her own place?" Finally, Tyler couldn't hide his surprised expression when he asked the questions. Jessica thought the black-haired man had managed to hide his emotions well since he noticed her presence in the apartment. Tyler could focus on Noah without glancing at her, and that was enough to prove that the man was a good actor who managed to hide everything behind the thick curtain of his heart. However, after hearing Noah say that she would live in his apartment again starting today, Tyler could no longer hide his surprised expression. "That's because her parents told me to look after her. I hope you can understand, Tyle," Noah answered. “That's nothing new, right?" Tyler asked again, didn't seem to be satisfied with his boyfriend's answer. "You're her husband, and this definitely isn't the first time her parents have asked you to do something like that, right
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 143. Can You Pretend?
Noah was forced to leave his apartment after he received a call from work, reminding him that there would be an important meeting that he shouldn't miss today, and that's why he hurriedly changed his clothes before leaving the apartment. However, before he left, he answered Tyler's question, "As I said before, nothing will change even if Jessica gets pregnant, and nothing will change even if she starts living here again. You will still sleep with me in the master bedroom, and she will use the guest room.” That was Noah's firm decision before he pressed his lips to Tyler's forehead and immediately left the apartment. Everything happened so quickly right before Jessica's eyes, but Jessica didn't say anything because she had expected everything. When she agreed to go back to Noah's apartment again, she suspected that Noah wouldn't kick Tyler out of his place for various reasons. One reason was the fact that Noah loved Tyler with all his heart and didn't wa
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 144. Jessica and Her Puppets
Jessica and Tyler had made a deal, and she could breathe a sigh of relief because that man was willing to pretend like he had nothing to do with her pregnancy, and that meant her father's condition wouldn't be in danger for the time being. People would only know that the father of her child was Noah, and everything would go smoothly at least until the time came for her to give birth to the child. It seemed the agreement was a good thing for Tyler as well, and perhaps that was the reason why the raven-haired man looked like he was in a good mood tonight while preparing dinner. Noah had returned home, and the three of them were at the dining table which was full of various dishes cooked by Tyler. “I don't know what you like, so I cook various dishes. I hope you like any of them,” humbly, Tyler spoke to Jessica while placing himself next to Noah at the dining table. Sitting across from him was Jessica, and she was busy letting her blue eyes obser
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 145. Why Did She Lie?
The news of Jessica's pregnancy spread like wildfire in her company. Her mother personally knew her boss, and she contacted her boss to tell him about her pregnancy and asked him not to work her too hard so she wouldn't burn out. Jessica actually felt embarrassed when her mother treated her as if she was a kindergarten student who needed protection from her teacher when she was at school, but she also couldn't stop her mother. In the end, Karl finally found out that she fainted at the company two weeks ago not because of exhaustion but because she was pregnant, and he immediately made a big announcement at the company today. The whole company cheered happily after hearing the news, and her coworkers immediately congratulated her. Some of her older coworkers even gave her advice here and there regarding early pregnancy, and Jessica felt her ears go numb from listening to too many words today. In fact, she didn't really work at the office today, but she w
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 146. A Servant
Several weeks had passed since everyone found out she was pregnant, and Jessica's life had actually been going smoothly since that day. She worked as usual at the magazine company, but Karl limited her work outside the company. She still took photos of models for the magazine, but she only did indoor photo shoots in the company building. Of course, this was actually boring for her adventurous spirit. Before she was pregnant, she enjoyed the most when she could do outdoor photo shoots, but her boss suddenly became so nice to her and only gave her indoor work. She was very sure it was because her mother contacted her boss privately a few weeks ago. Even if Karl was the number one person in the company, he was nothing more than a baby when he had to face her mother, and that was why it was understandable that the man listened to her mother so well. Actually, Jessica needed to thank her boss because her body was indeed weaker since she became pregnant. She
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 147. I Think I Saw You Somewhere
Jessica's parents' sudden visit actually wasn't that surprising because they had done that many times before, and they were also expected to meet Tyler someday. After all, Tyler lived under the same roof as Jessica and Noah, and his body was too big to be hidden somewhere in the apartment forever. However, there was something different about the explanation they prepared when Tyler came forward to introduce himself in front of the parents. ‘Why does he have to lower himself by saying that he is a servant in this house?’ Jessica gritted her teeth as she openly looked at the man sitting next to her this time. Her eyes were full of scolding, but Tyler didn't even look at her and continued to look at her parents. The living room was enveloped in silence for a moment, but it was suddenly broken by Luke's laughter. “You sure know how to joke, young man! You are Noah's best friend, and I'm sure neither Noah nor Jessica see you as a servant here. You

Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 240. EPILOGUE
“Mom, are we really going to stay overnight at Grandma's house today?” Glancing in the rearview mirror to look into the back seat, Jessica could see how her son kept swinging his legs while asking the question. His cute movements only showed that the blonde boy was very excited to hear his mother's answer. But, this wasn't even the first time Shane had asked that question, and Jessica actually had answered the same question before. Thankfully, Jessica didn't get tired of hearing her son's excitement, and she smiled while shaking her head helplessly before answering, "We're going to have a sleepover at Grandma's house for real, but why are you so excited about that, Shane?" Jessica could keep glancing at the boy because she didn't need to focus on driving. But, the answer to her question came not from her son but from her daughter, "That's because Grandma promised us that she would tell us more stories about Grandpa, Mommy! We wonder if Grandpa is more like me or Shane!" "Of cou

“What is 'proposing,' Mommy? Why do you keep saying that word?” Impatiently, Shane continued to pull the side of Jessica's shirt while asking the question. It was indeed the little boy who responded to Jessica even though the question was directed at Noah. But, that didn't upset the woman, and instead, she looked satisfied as she smiled at the boy before answering, “You'll have to ask your favorite Daddy about that word, Shane. He would know more than me about that word.” Jessica did direct her answer to her son, but her eyes glanced at Noah when she said her last sentence. Noah looked cornered, he even tried to look away from the mother and son pair. The artificial light around the area reflected on the man's forehead after he took off the cat head, and it looked glistening with sweat, either because of his cat costume or because of his nervousness. Jessica didn't know the reason, but that didn't stop her from staring intently at the man while waiting for his answer. "Proposin

“So, where is your Daddy now? Did he run away after giving my son a stup—a funny task?” Gritting her teeth to suppress her annoyance, Jessica questioned her son, almost failing to restrain herself from uttering the word "stupid." However, it was not her son who responded. Instead, it was her daughter who suddenly tugged on her sleeve, causing her to turn towards the little girl. “Daddy didn't run away, Mom,” the little girl said, and Jessica thought she would continue to say something. That's why Jessica remained silent waiting for her daughter to explain what she had just said, but the little girl didn't say anything and just moved her little hands towards the pink backpack hanging on her back. Jessica didn't know what the girl was doing, but she could see how the girl unzipped her backpack before taking something out of it. To Jessica's surprise, the thing the girl had just taken out of her backpack was a camera. To be pr

In the end, Jessica decided to give Noah a second chance. Yes, a second chance to be closer to her children.The reason behind her decision was that her children really liked Noah since the first time they met at the mall ice cream shop when she accompanied Tammy to buy a birthday present for her husband. It could be said that the ice cream succeeded in buying the kids' love, and they really liked spending time with the person who bought them the ice cream.Actually, that was not a bad thing, but Jessica was quite annoyed by the stubbornness of her children who kept calling Noah "daddy." It was clearly Noah's fault for casually confirming that he was indeed the twins' father, and Jessica continued to curse the man in her heart from that day on.She didn't even realize that a week had passed since her mother left the hospital and started living again in Noah's old apartment. Due to her mother's pleading, she ended up staying in that apartment as well rather

“That… that's too cheesy! Aren't we going to buy food for my mother and children? We better leave now or they will eat us alive if they get too hungry," Jessica tried to change the topic of their conversation when she started to feel nervous because of what Noah had just said to her. She even averted her gaze to look at anything as long as it wasn't Noah's face, and that was why she didn't notice the hopeful expression on the man's face. "You just said that what I said was too cheesy, but you didn't say that you didn't believe what I said," Noah replied, ignoring the fact that Jessica was trying to change the topic of their conversation. Finally, Jessica could no longer avoid the man's face, and she once again looked at him with her pair of blue eyes. At this moment, she could finally see a glimmer of hope in the man's eyes. "To be honest, Tammy has told me everything related to you," Jessica finally said the truth.
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 235. Her Confidence
“Why didn't you remarry after we divorced five years ago?” Jessica's voice was finally heard in the car. "Is it because you still can't get over Tyler?"Suddenly, Noah sneered before replying, “Do you think I love that man so much that I can't replace him with someone else? I don't know if this information is useful for you or not, but the truth is that I didn't really love him when we were together.""You didn't really love him but you still wanted to be with him even though it meant betraying our marriage," Jessica answered sarcastically, and Noah looked stunned by her answer.For a moment, Noah could only stare at the blonde without being able to utter a word with his mouth, but then he took a deep breath before saying, “I believe love and guilt are two different things, and I differentiated them clearly when I was still with him. I betrayed our marriage because of my feelings of guilt, not because of my love for him.”Jessica was the one who d
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 234. The Similar Situation
Jessica didn't know what to say after hearing Noah just say what was on his mind and heart, but for some reason, she felt familiar with the situation. The familiar feeling she felt in her heart made her anxious, her hands even moved to grip her jeans tightly as if asking for support from the blue fabric.“You probably think that my situation is similar to your children's situation, right?”Jessica felt her heart stop beating for a moment after hearing what Noah had just asked. It was actually impossible for her heart to stop beating while she was still alive, but she was truly surprised by the question. She finally understood why she felt anxious about Noah's story. That was because the story reminded her of her children.“I am the illegitimate child of that billionaire, and your children are the same even if their father is not a billionaire. They are very young now, but their lives are probably as full of drama as mine. Their lives will be full of lies a
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 233. Noah's Dramatic Life
After everything that happened to her five years ago, Jessica really didn't like surprises. Back then, many unexpected things happened to her, and none of them were pleasant surprises. That was why she felt traumatized by unexpected things, but today, she kept getting unexpected things since she came to the hospital to see her mother.First, a surprise came in the form of Noah, and second, it was in the form of the fact that her mother ended up living in Noah's old apartment. As if that wasn't enough, Noah then told her that he wanted to discuss a matter with her alone, and in the end, Jessica could only follow the man's lead.They were once again in Noah's car, and Jessica had fastened her seat belt. She prepared to look for something for her mother and her children's lunch, but she was puzzled because Noah did not start the car immediately.“Did you forget your wallet?” Confused, Jessica asked the man while looking at him.Her thinking was indee

In fact, Jessica had no plans at all to get into her ex-husband's car. Even her ex-husband's appearance at the hospital was not her plan at all, but in the end, she could only surrender and agree to get into the vehicle.Her mother first sat in the second row of seats with the twins, and she had no choice but to take the passenger seat next to the driver's seat. On the way to her mother's house, Noah, her mother, and the twins continued to chat happily about everything, but Jessica remained silent. None of those people seemed to notice her, and that was why she was lost in thought during the journey.She was actually drowned by the fact that she was passing through a route that she used to travel in the past. She didn't know her mother's new address, but she was sure that every street the car took was familiar to her eyes. It brought a feeling of nostalgia that both warmed and chilled her heart.At first, she ignored the familiarity she felt, assuming that
