All Chapters of Pregnant on the Cusp of Divorce: Chapter 461 - Chapter 470

Gwen was shell-shocked. It was true that she had stolen the design sketch. However, she thought that a low-profile and unknown designer like Jacinda wouldn't know a big shot like Thaddeus, let alone have any connection with the famous designer Lolly. If Jacinda had such connections, why would she start her own studio and work on those designs herself?Plagiarism was the most detestable action in the design industry, and Gwen had been caught red-handed using another person's designs for an interview.Gwen lowered her head and said, "The sketch isn't mine, but it isn't Lolly's either. It belongs to Jacinda Patton."She immediately told him the truth.Thaddeus narrowed his eyes. This was big news!That explained why he found that the studio's designs were similar to Jessamine's. Jacinda had stolen Jessamine's design and started a design studio with them. She even developed her studio so much in the past four years that she needed to switch locations.Did Jacinda have that much m

Jessamine ignored the couple's accusations and prioritized comforting her children. "Lucas, Layla, don't be afraid. Can you tell Mommy what happened?" she asked. But before Lucas and Layla could say anything, Gemma spoke first, "I can't believe you still have the gall to ask that! Your children bullied another kid! Look at how they hurt my daughter! Kindergartens have now traumatized all of us."Jessamine didn't simply believe other people's claims and scolded the children because of that. Instead, she asked her children for their side of the story. "Lucas, Layla, tell Mommy what happened."Lucas and Layla were frightened, especially when Kiara's parents had first arrived. They looked like they wanted to beat them up for hurting their daughter.Upon seeing Jessamine, Layla immediately cried, "Mommy, Kiara said that Lucas and I were feral children without a father and that we're aliens! I told her that we weren't. Kiara attacked me first, and that's why Lucas attacked her back."L

In the car, Jessamine recalled the day's events, feeling horrified. She had no idea how long Kiara had verbally bullied Lucas and Layla. She wasn't even sure if there were other children in the class who had insulted them, calling them feral children who didn't have a father. She was lost in her thoughts throughout the journey.Meanwhile, Lucas and Layla were happy. Lucas kept boasting that he wanted to learn martial arts from Jerome so he could fight bad guys and protect his mommy.After what happened, Jessamine had lost her appetite. Jerome had injured himself because he protected her from being splashed with boiling water. His playful and joyous personality was his best trait, and he only showed her the best parts of himself.Jessamine wasn't ungrateful. She wanted Jerome to go to the hospital and get his burns checked. When the hot water hit his back, she could see him enduring the pain. He was clearly hurt, but he still pretended to be okay.However, Jerome kept refusi

Time passed, and when the hearing time arrived, the plaintiff walked into court and sat in his seat.Jessamine glanced at the plaintiff. He wasn't someone she knew.The judge looked through the documents for a few minutes. Then, he asked, "Ms. Jessamine Patton, are you and Jacinda Patton the same person?"Jessamine nodded in affirmation. She had changed her name but still had her original name on her ID card. She couldn't hide it in this situation.The judge asked again, "Ms. Jessamine Patton, the plaintiff's representative, Lolly, is suing you for plagiarizing her designs. What do you have to say for yourself?"Jessamine froze in place at his words. She had considered countless possibilities about who was suing her, but she hadn't expected the plaintiff to be suing her on behalf of Lolly.The prosecutor had begun to submit the evidence, including some of her previous design drafts, the missing design draft she had spent a lot of time looking for, and a professional appraisal cer

Jessamine wanted to pull her hand away, but Thaddeus tightened his grip so much that she felt a jolt of pain. As they pushed and pulled, they heard the sound of something ripping. The sleeves of Jessamine's clothes were torn.Thaddeus was stunned to see the tattoo on her shoulder. It was a picture of a Red Spider Lily. If he looked closely, he could see the indents of a horrifying scar hidden in the petals. The red spider lily was a flower that symbolized death and rebirth, a fitting symbol of Jessamine's situation.He smiled wryly. For the four years she was gone, Jessamine had changed her name and cut off contact with everyone. She really planned to never see him again.Thaddeus was heartbroken to see that hideous scar. He was familiar with every inch of her body, but that scar was a new addition to that canvas. It must have been from that car accident. He knew Jessamine feared pain the most."Jessie…" He called her name with reddened eyes, his voice laced with regret.Jes
