Pregnant on the Cusp of Divorce Chapter 1
In the silent night, Jessamine Patton tossed and turned in bed. She had gone to sleep in a bad mood, and it reflected in her chaotic dreams.When she felt a hand on her waist, she scooted a few inches away. But when she was almost asleep, whoever was behind her dragged her back.Jessamine stubbornly moved away again, only to be tugged back. This went on for a while more. Her actions well and truly awakened the man's desire to conquer. Instead of placing a hand on her waist, he started trailing it over her body.Jessamine was awake now. She held his hand on her and tried to push him away, pleading, "I'm not in the mood for it tonight."Throughout their three years of marriage, Jessamine had been obedient and submissive. This was her first time rejecting him.Thaddeus Holt ignored her protests and pinned her to the bed. He undid the buttons of her pajama top and planted kisses on her, starting from her shoulder.Jessamine's struggles meant nothing. Her eyes were dull as she numbly

Jessamine couldn't help trembling underneath Thaddeus. She tried her best to keep her voice steady so he wouldn't realize she was crying. "I suppose congratulations are in order, then. I'm glad you're finally gonna end up with the woman you love."In the dark, she gave Thaddeus blessings that didn't come from the heart. Sure enough, loving someone would humble one and make one set their dignity aside."Are you crying?""No," Jessamine said stubbornly.Thaddeus didn't seem to be too happy with her blessing. He thrust harder into her, making her mind go blank.When they finished, he lay atop her. Then, he whispered into her ear, "I hope you'll soon be reunited with your precious Malcolm, too. Seeing as we used to be married, you can always come to me if you need help."Meanwhile, Jessamine was exhausted. She lay there limply and eventually fell into a deep sleep.When she woke up the next morning, Thaddeus was long gone. He had more self-discipline than anyone she knew. No matter

Jessamine smiled bitterly. Thaddeus could think whatever he wanted. Since things had already turned out like this, there was no need for her to explain herself.Thaddeus took one of the divorce agreements, leaving one for Jessamine. He said slowly, "We can't finalize the divorce yet, and I've to ask you to keep this a secret for now."The company's having a new product launch soon, and I won't allow anything to go wrong, especially with Grandpa—"Before he could finish, Jessamine said, "Don't worry. I'll keep this a secret from Grandpa. If necessary, I can also explain things to Ms. Quilton for you. After all, you're paying me for this. It's only right for me to do these things."Thaddeus' eyes darkened. He said somewhat sarcastically, "Thanks a lot, then. I might actually need it."Jessamine's throat constricted as her stomach roiled nauseously. She ran to the bathroom and vomited everything she had just eaten.Breakfast ended unpleasantly. Thaddeus left a half-eaten sandwich be

Thaddeus corrected himself. "No, not my wife. Jessamine Patton. Ms. Patton."Jordan looked surprised. He didn't know why Thaddeus was in a bad mood today, but he figured it had something to do with Jessamine.The last time Thaddeus had come to work after having an argument with Jessamine, he'd looked as scary as he was right now."Do I need to check her phone records too, Mr. Holt?""Yeah. Look into anyone with the name Malcolm.""Yes, sir." Jordan hurried off to carry out Thaddeus' instructions.After giving his orders, Thaddeus checked the message Lana had sent to him. His jaw tensed.Lana's message read, "Mrs. Holt left this behind."Attached was a photo of Thaddeus' supplementary card. He hadn't mentioned anything about taking it back. Jessamine had taken the initiative to return it.So, she was taking the "leaving without a word" route, huh? In a fit of rage, Thaddeus froze all of Jessamine's cards. Once she was out of money, she would return.Jessamine arrived at a ho

Thaddeus had only frozen Jessamine's card to force her to return to the villa. She was usually so demure and timid that she wouldn't even talk to him loudly, yet she'd done something like this. It was out of his expectations.Not even a day had passed since he'd asked for a divorce, and she was already changing his impression of her.She actually had the nerve to ask for 100 million dollars!Thaddeus stood up and buttoned his suit jacket as he strode out of the office. Jordan hurried ahead of him to press the button for the elevator.When they arrived at the bank, Jessamine and Shane were just leaving. They were complaining because they hadn't gotten the money.Before they could get into the car, Thaddeus got out of his car and strode over to them. "I can't believe you're asking for such a massive alimony! 100 million dollars? Seriously? It feels like you're trying to take advantage of me and drain me financially!"His domineering air made Jessamine back up until she was pressed

Thaddeus was pleased by Jessamine's reaction. "Amy's the one who designed it. Holt Jewelry officially signed a contract with her yesterday. She's now the chief designer."This necklace is the first masterpiece she designed since her return to the country. I'm sure it'll be well-received."After singing Amy's praises, Thaddeus didn't forget to insult Jessamine. "Take a look at it. It's much better than those scribbles you're always drawing."Whenever Thaddeus talked about Amy, he would look smug and proud. Perhaps he didn't realize how boastful he sounded when talking about her. It was as if he were introducing some precious treasure to the world.Jessamine's scalp tingled. There was a voice in her mind that told her her design had been stolen. She just couldn't understand how her incomplete draft had ended up in Amy's hands.Thaddeus was so arrogant and proud that he wouldn't stoop low enough to steal someone's designs. Besides, he didn't think there was anything special about her

Thaddeus didn't wait for Jessamine to say anything. He lifted her up and placed her on his lap. It took Jessamine a few seconds to react, but by the time she did, she was already perched on his lap with her head pressed against his chest.She could hear the sound of his strong heartbeat. For a second, it made her feel like she was someone Thaddeus wanted to protect with his life. She knew they were about to divorce, yet she still couldn't help savoring the feeling of him holding her.It was different from when they slept together. Jessamine's heart was racing so quickly that it seemed it would jump out of her chest soon.Jessamine told herself that this would be her last moment of unbridled enjoyment.Jordan tried his best to drive as steadily as he could, but Jessamine couldn't help dry heaving a few more times. Her stomach felt like it was burning. She couldn't tell whether it was from the hunger or the vomiting.When they arrived at Islington Apartments, Thaddeus got out of the

"Ted, can you stay with me for a few more minutes? I have something to show you." Amy went to the study to get a design she'd worked on for ages. She showed it to Thaddeus."Look at these rings I've designed. They're supposed to symbolize vows of loyalty. What do you think of us using these as our wedding rings?"Thaddeus' patience was running short today, perhaps because of Jessamine's dry heaving. He said flippantly, "You decide. I'll have someone produce them in the future."Amy was delighted. Since he had no objection to the rings, that meant he would marry her. She was only one step away from marrying him. At least all her waiting finally paid off.Now, she only had one more step … She had to speed things up a little."Why don't you have a meatball, Ted? I spent the whole afternoon cooking them, you know. I learned how to make them just for you. I even burned my hand!" Amy said coquettishly.She dragged Thaddeus to the kitchen. Thaddeus had no choice but to eat a meatball.
