Chapter 360
Wyatt got up from the floor a little clumsily and walked out, his fingers tapping away frantically on
his phone. When he found Jessica’s location, his eyes darkened.
She’s at the hospital!
Wyatt got into his car and immediately rushed over to the hospital.
Shutting
his eyes briefly and opening them again, Wyatt silently decided that no matter what, as long as Jessica came clean and apologiz
ed to him, he would forgive everything she had done. They would go back and celebrate his birthday together–
him, Jessica, and their baby.
The moment Wyatt reached the hospital, he hurried over to the receptionist in long strides and asked, “Can you please tell me w
here Jessica Marsh is? I’m her boyfriend.”
The receptionist swiftly looked up and gave him a furtive glance. “According to the ID card number that you gave me, this lady na
med Jessica Marsh is at the obstetrics and gynecology department now. It seems she has a uterus scraping procedure schedule
d.”
Uterus scraping?
Wyatt knew very well what the procedure entailed. Feeling exasperated and enraged, he fervently prayed that the worst had not
happened yet as he dashed toward the stairs.
The moment he reached the floor where the obstetrics and gynecology department was located, he grabbed a nurse and asked i
mpatiently, “Where’s the operating room?”
“That way.”
Taking quick steps, Wyatt entered the corridor leading to the operating room. He saw a woman, whose face was sickly pallid, co
me out from inside. She placed one hand on her stomach, and it looked like she had difficulty walking.
Wyatt’s heart palpitated. He quickly grabbed hold of the nurse who was about to walk away. “Where’s Jessica? Has she done he
r surgery?”
The nurse looked at him with disdain. “You’re her boyfriend? Don’t you know that a pregnant lady is very fragile? She-”
“I’m asking you, has she done her surgery?” interrupted Wyatt as his eyes became increasingly bloodshot.
Startled by Wyatt, the nurse stuttered, “S–
She was in such a state... We had no choice but to go through with the procedure. It was such a pity. The embryos had already
become fetuses. They were a pair of twins.”
Wyatt was deeply crushed upon hearing that, so much so that he could no longer think.
In such a state? What kind of state? Was she so determined to get rid of the
babies that she insisted the doctor carry on with the procedure?
After Wyatt got Jessica’s ward number from the nurse, he wasted no time getting there.
Anger arose like a burning fire in his heart. The flames of fury blazed and burned within Wyatt, nearly consuming and reducing hi
m to ashes.
He pushed open the door to the ward quite roughly and saw Jessica sitting on the hospital bed. Jessica looked in his direction be
cause of the sudden commotion. Her delicate face was devoid of any color.
Wyatt strode over and glared at her with reddened eyes. “Did you enjoy taking revenge? Are you satiated? Or do you want to kill
me as well?”
Chapter 360
Jessica’s lips moved, but she did not get even one word out as Wyatt clamped a hand over her
jaw. He did it so forcefully that her brows furrowed from the pain.
He leaned over and stared into her eyes.
“Jessica, I can’t believe you can be so cruel! How could you use our children as a means to take revenge against me? Aren’t you
afraid of retribution?” asked Wyatt through gritted teeth. His completely bloodshot eyes could make one’s skin crawl.
In a weak and hoarse voice, Jessica explained, “I did think of doing that, but...”
After she found out she was really pregnant, she had given up on that idea.
Since Gerald was already dead, the Lopez family no longer owed her anything. Jessica had intended to settle down with Wyatt a
nd give birth to their children peacefully.
Sadly, Wyatt was so furious that he refused to listen to anything Jessica had to say. He wrapped his hand around her throat tightl
y and pinned her down on the bed.
He glared at Jessica menacingly and was on the verge of strangling her to death.
“I knew early on why you approached me. I also knew that you were the one who masterminded my father’s death. Of course, I h
ated you, but I felt sorry for you at the same time. So I told myself that if you said you loved me, I would pretend
not to know about any of that. How could you do this to me, Jessica? You said you loved me, but
you spent every minute and second exacting revenge upon me! You can come at me all you like, but why did you have to harm
my children?” shouted Wyatt indignantly.
He was like a kid throwing a temper
tantrum. It seemed as if he was going to snap Jessica’s neck with the amount of force he was applying.
Suffocating from the lack of oxygen, Jessica knew that Wyatt would not listen to anything she had to say.
He’s right. I planned
everything, and I just changed parts of the plan halfway through. I have indeed been constantly plotting revenge against him.
The moment she lost their children, she knew that there would be nothing left between them. If Pamela found out what Jessica
had done, she would not forgive the latter as well.
I might as well cut all ties with Wyatt completely.
With that thought in her mind, Jessica stared back at the angry man and gave him a half–
smile. Her face was purple, and her breaths became more
and more labored. She uttered with difficulty, “That’s right. I’ve been toying with you... and taking revenge against
you. Staying by your side... It was all for revenge. You’re such a gullible man... I merely lifted a finger, and you fell for it complete
ly.”
As Jessica’s gaze swept across the small box on her bedside, her heart ached immensely. She stretched out her hand and took
hold of the box with much effort. Holding it out in front of Wyatt, she asked, “Do you... want to have a look?”
Before Wyatt could move away, Jessica opened the box.
One glance at its contents was all it took for Wyatt to break down. He slapped Jessica hard.
The slap was so strong that Jessica’s head turned to one side from the force. There was a tingling sensation of numbness at one
corner of her mouth, followed by a trickle of blood.
“Why did you do that? Why? They were twins... How could you?” Wyatt choked out. He grabbed Jessica’s hair roughly, forcing h
er to look at him.
Chapter 360
“I feel disgusted when I think of giving birth to the children of a man like you, responded Jessica with an impassive glance.
Wyatt’s rage was intense that he had the urge to end Jessica there and then. He raised his hand again, but upon seeing Jessica’s
She can go to the extent of aborting my children just for revenge. What else would she care about? What is the point of
getting angry with her?
“What good would
it do to hit you?” mumbled Wyatt to himself. Suddenly, he slapped himself hard twice. “I should hit myself instead for being so blin
Jessica’s heart ached. She wanted to stop him from hitting himself but she steeled herself and remained stoic.
I guess it’s better to let things end this way.
Wyatt gave Jessica a glance full of hatred, then he held the box and stumbled out of the ward.
He seemed to have exhausted all of his energy in that
confrontation. Staggering around in unsteady steps, he looked around helplessly, not knowing where to go.
He looked at the various patients walking past him. Some were old, and some were young. There was a woman holding her baby
way. It was as if he was afraid that either one of them might fall and hurt themselves.
The baby bundled up in the blanket had translucent, pinkish skin. It was staring intensely at its mother, its eyes opened wide, and
Wyatt’s wobbly steps quickened as he was saddened by the scene.
When his body came into contact with a wall, he finally regained his senses. His body crumpled, and he started wailing out loud a
He had never cried from when he was young. Even when Gerald died, he did not shed a tear. Now, however, he was mindlessly s
Wyatt had always thought that men tend to be more heartless, but that day, he had learned firsthand how devastating a woman’s
be.
He was utterly shattered by Jessica and hurt beyond belief.
Holding the box tightly against his chest, Wyatt sat numbly on the cool floor tiles for a long time. Finally, he slowly stood up using t
his phone.
After he made a call, he went back to Jessica’s ward with a cold expression.
Rayna had finally picked up Jessica’s call, but before the latter could say anything, her phone was snatched away by Wyatt. He th
Jessica looked at him helplessly and asked weakly, “Wyatt, what are you doing?“
