| kindly pointed her in the right direction. "If you hope your child isn't illegitimate, go find Ryan and ask him to
hurry up with the divorce, understood? Don't make a scene here. If you end up having a miscarriage, you'll lose
one more bargaining chip to marry into the Frost family. See her out."
Finally, I instructed her assistant.
Jessica was furious and probably thought | had a point, so she just left.
And the direction | pointed her in worked quite
effectively.
As for how | knew, in the afternoon, | received a call from Ryan.
"What did you say to her?" he asked as soon as | answered the call.
| paused and said, "I didn't say much, just that she urgedto divorce you and | told her to talk to you."
His tone beccolder. "You didn't tell her to go die?!

| In't surprised that Jessica would do this. Softening my voice, | said, "I only said that because | was provoked.
She calleda prostitute pretending to be virtuous, a disaster for my step-parents, and said I'm shameless for
clinging to other men and threatened to have someone beatto death..."
After finishing, | recalled Jessica's words earlier.
| felt like | was stating the facts.
Compared to fabricating lies, | was just adding scolor.
Ryan was momentarily stunned, his voice was as cold as ice.
I said, "You should know her better than me."
Did she tally rau that to you?"
There was silence on the other end of the line for a moment before he sighed. "She's been spoiled by my dad
since childhood. Just don't argue with her."
I smirked. "Sure."
It was typical for men to have two standards.
On the one hand, he questionedbecause of Jessica's words, and on the other, he could asknot to argue
with her.
Why didn't he say that to Jessica?
Jane heard about this and was so angry in bed that her curses were like a string of firecrackers exploding
"Both of them are crazy. They're out of their goddamn minds!"
"Alright, alright. You're almost fainting, and you still have the spirit to curse?" | quickly handed her a cup of water

When | arrived, she was lying alone in the hospital bed, receiving an 1V, looking pitiful. | almost pitied her if it

"I'm not actually upset."
After what happened during the past couple of days, | had gotten used to it.

Jane peeled an orange to toss into her mouth, which | snatched away. "The doctor said you that you can't eat too
much cold food."
She watched helplessly as | ate the orange. "Whose seed is Jessica carrying in her belly?"
"Not Ryan's."
What Ryan said toin the car last night didn't sound like a lie.
And if Jessica really was pregnant with the Frost family's child, she wouldn't just cause trouble forShe would

fight for her status, even if it meant angering Grandpa.
| heard that my father-in-law only cared about Jessica,
Compared to Jessica, Ryan seemed more like a burden.
His mother was gone and his father didn't love him at all.
"That's good." Jane lay back in bed, holding her stomach. "I suppose so. Even if Ryan loves her dearly, he
