Chapter 72
Jane held back at first but then snatched the phone from me in one swift move, her illness didnât weaken her fighting spirit in the slightest.
âJessica, donât you have a mirror? Or are you just blind? You canât even hide the words âmistressâ on your face, can you? And you, Ryan, who the hell do you think you areâ¦â
I shivered after hearing those words, not waiting for them to escalate the conversation, I lunged forward and hung up the phone!
Jane wasnât done venting her anger. âWhy did you hang up? I was about to give those two a piece of my
mind!â
âCalm down,â I said.
I originally felt extremely aggrieved, but now I calmed down. I poured a glass of water for Jane. âActually, if Ryan really listens to her, it might be better for everyone if we got divorced.â
Given the current situation between Ryan and me, letting each other go might be the best choice.
âAre you really okay with that?â Jane took a big gulp of hot water, getting more and more worked up. âI support you getting divorced, but I donât want you to be so spineless about it. How dare the mistress think sheâs better than the wife? Who does she think she is?â
âThatâs not the problem here.â Leaning against the edge of the sofa, I placed my hand on my belly, as if drawing strength from it, and said quietly. âAs long as the child is healthy, I think everything is worthwhile, and there is hope for the future.â
I just wanted to get divorced soon and leave the Frost family.
Jelaston was so big, that as long as it wasnât intentional, Ryan and I probably wouldnât meet again.
That way, I could focus on taking care of my child and keeping my child company.
In the near future, he would start calling me âmomâ softly and sweetly.
With that thought in mind, my heart softened.
Nothing really mattered now as long as my child could grow up healthily and happily.
As long as they didnât harm my child, I wouldnât mind anything they did.
Janeâs anger also subsided. âYou have a point. Only people like me who have nothing to lose arenât scared of them. Youâre pregnant now, and the child should come first.â
âDoes Ryan really listen to her?â
âNot fornow.â I shook my head. âAt least heâll have to wait until after Grandpaâs birthday party.â
Both he and Jessica feared Grandpa.
And I was worried that Grandpaâs health wouldnât withstand the shocking news.
Thatâs coming soon.â Jane nodded. âTell me, does Ryan really like her, or is he morally bound by her motherâs lifesaving grace?â

âWho knows.â I had no interest in guessing.
The cause didnât matter. What was important was the result.
Every time, he chose Jessica.
Jane pondered, âWith Jessicaâs personality, Ryan must be blind to like her⦠It must be the lifesaving
grace.
âLetâs sayâ¦â I suddenly became curious. âIf one day you found out that the person youâve always trusted actually killed your closest relative, what would you do?â
âI donât have any close relatives.â Jane didnât hesitate. There was a hint of loneliness in her eyes, and I couldnât help but feel sorry for her. Just as I was about to comfort her, she curved her lips and said, âBut if someone tried to harm you, I would definitely fight them with everything I have.â
I was touched and amused at the same time. âIf you were a man, Iâd marry you as soon as I get divorced.â
Jane cocked her brows âReally?â
Knock! Knock!
Just as I was about to respond, someone knocked on the door, and the doorbell rang.
Janeâs stomach had been hurting a bit, so I told her to stay where she was. I got up to open the door.
âQuick, give me a kiss!â
As soon as the door opened, I saw Tom, leaning on the door frame with one hand, striking a pose he thought was handsome. His eyes were closed as he was puckering his lips.
âWhat the hell?â I wondered.
I almost burst out laughing and Jane immediately threw a cushion that hit Tom accurately.
