Tyler acted like an outsider when he expressed his opinion, and it surprised Jessica. Suddenly, the man looked as if he was just an ordinary friend of Noah's, nothing more than that. As a good friend, Tyler only wished for his friend's happiness, and that made Jessica confused.

'Maybe he's just acting, right? Two months ago, Noah felt suspicious about our relationship, and we both tried to limit our interactions to dispel those suspicions. So, what he did today was probably the same, right? He just doesn't want Noah to feel suspicious of us, right?' Jessica could only make guesses in her head without being able to voice them.

Her head was full of unanswered questions, and she failed to notice it when someone suddenly moved his body closer to her, she could even smell the person's shampoo because the distance was so close. When she woke up from her reverie, she could hear a “click” sound, and she finally realized that Noah was just helping her fasten her seat belt

    It was still the same doctor who managed to trick Jessica with her youthful appearance even though she was the same age as her. It was still the doctor named Helena Smith who welcomed her, and the obstetrician-gynecologist managed to surprise her with her question. Stiffly, Jessica turned to look at Noah, and she could see how shocked he was. "I'm her husband," Noah said, and the doctor looked even more confused after hearing what he said. “I'm sorry, but I think there's something I don't understand here,” the doctor answered. “Mrs. Brooks has been visiting me for over three months, and on every visit, she was always with a black-haired man. Sorry, I don't mean to pry into your personal affairs, but I'm just confused here.” Even before the doctor expressed her true feelings, Jessica already knew that she was confused. At this moment, she just realized that she was too careless when she agreed to take Noah to come to the hospital with her today

    Unfortunately, the male sonographer was not as friendly as Helena, and his face became flat after hearing Noah's unexpected words. "Oh," he answered flatly. “If that's the case, you can look for another sonographer now. Unfortunately, this hospital only has male sonographers, so you may need to look for another hospital to find the sonographer you want, sir.” Not that the sonographer sounded offended by Noah's words. On the contrary, he sounded lazy when he said his answer, and he would have even casually left the room if Jessica hadn't tried to stop him. “Please continue with the procedure!” Jessica said, and the sonographer turned to her. "But your husband won't let me do that, ma'am," answered the sonographer lazily. "It's okay," Jessica answered, glancing at her husband. “The skin you will touch is mine, not his. I am the one who can decide whether someone can touch what is mine or not.” Even though her relationship wit

    Jessica was surprised by Noah's answer, and for a moment, she didn't know what to do or say after hearing his answer. However, she chose to ignore what he said in the end, thinking that Noah might be confused by some things, but he would soon return to himself. Jessica kept telling herself not to fall twice. This time, they once again sat across from Helena with only a rectangular table separating them. The results were in the doctor's hands, and she looked serious about reading them until her brows furrowed. “Is everything okay, doc?” Anxious, Jessica asked the doctor. Hearing the question, the doctor then looked up from the report in her hand before answering, "There's nothing wrong here." She smiled, then continued, “During the examination, did you see the image displayed on the computer, Mrs. Brooks?” "Yes," answered Jessica. “Is there something wrong with the image, doc?” “No, no. It's nothing like that,” the doctor answered imm

    The husband and wife walked side by side in the hospital corridor. It was quite a busy day at the hospital, and many people were walking in the corridors. Noah even accidentally bumped into some people several times and needed to apologize for it. “Can you focus on walking instead of continuing to look at that picture?” Walking beside him, Jessica scolded the tall man. The reason was that it was completely Noah's fault that he ended up bumping into those people. He was holding a piece of paper, and a picture was displayed on the paper. It was none other than the ultrasound image they got from the doctor, and his eyes were glued to the image after they left the doctor's room. "There are two babies in your stomach," he muttered, but it seemed like he had no intention of answering his wife's question. "I know!" Jessica answered while rolling her eyes. “The doctor has already explained everything to me, and you don't need to repeat it. Save your e

    The next day, when she was about to tell her mother about the results of the previous day's examination, her mother surprised her with her answer. [“NO! Don't say anything about the gender of the baby now!” Jessica even had to move her cell phone away from her ear when her mother uttered a response while raising the volume of her voice. Jessica only called her mother, instead of coming directly to her parents' house to tell them. It was Sunday, but she was too lazy to get out of bed, and that was why she just grabbed her cell phone before calling the older woman. "Why did you suddenly change your mind, Mom?" While lying on her bed, Jessica tried to be patient while asking her mother. "Before I went to the hospital yesterday, you always told me to immediately do an ultrasound examination so that you could immediately find out the gender of your grandchild. Why don’t you want to know the gender now?” “It's not that I don't want to know

    “So… it will be two babies instead of one? There are twins in Jessica's stomach?” Noah's mother asked the questions in disbelief. How Noah blew up two balloons instead of just one could mean there were two babies in Jessica's belly. "Yes, twins," Noah answered his mother. “I read some articles online that women over 30 have a greater chance of multiple conception, and as a result, they often have twins. I think that’s the reason why Jessica ends up having twins in her womb.” Jessica secretly glanced at her husband. These past few days, her husband had been busy when he wasn't working at the company. Sometimes, he read articles about babies, and he also tried to know more about pregnancy. It was actually surprising since he seemed to be interested in that stuff lately. Even when Jessica didn't think much about her pregnancy, Noah still acted as if he were the father of the babies in her womb. Of course, Jessica was confused by her husband's cha

    Noah and Tyler. These were the names that had confused her lately. Nearly half a year ago, she had been so confident when she said that those two men were her puppets, and she was the one who could control them as she pleased. But, when she couldn't even control herself, how was she supposed to control those two puppets? Luckily, the gender reveal party had ended, and all the guests had left the apartment. Jessica was already in her room, and she was about to go to sleep when she noticed how her cell phone, which had previously been lying on the bedside table, suddenly vibrated. She said irritably, “I should have turned it off so it wouldn't bother me when I'm in a bad mood!” She scolded herself, but she still brought her feet towards the small table by the bed. She then grabbed the device before reading the caller ID displayed on the screen. Her body froze when she saw Tyler's name on it. “Speak of the devil, and the devil will come

    “Noah will not know the truth about Tyler being the father of my child. Even when we finally divorce, I won't tell him that this child is Tyler's," Jessica muttered to herself after the phone call with Tyler ended. She looked anxious, and her hand subconsciously moved to caress the lump on her stomach. She actually used those two sentences to respond to Tyler's statement. She told Tyler that neither of them should say anything about the child's father even after she and Noah divorced. Instead, she and Noah would pretend they couldn't be together anymore and had no choice but to separate, but no one would know the truth about the child. Everyone would still think that the child was Noah's after separating. That was what Jessica said on the phone, and luckily, Tyler agreed to listen to her. He only said that Jessica also needed to keep her promise to marry him after the divorce. In the end, Jessica could only agree to that condition. Talking to

    “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

  • Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend    237. Are You Going to Propose?

    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.

    “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

    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

    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
