Gossip Girl Reborn

Gossip 81





Chapter 81 Turning On Each Other

William had never in his wildest dreams thought that they could have actually had a child together.

His parents, too, couldn't bear it. Allya nearly fainted but Keanu caught her in time.

The child they had longed for would have been four years old now had it not been lost.

The Quirks were also stunned.

Isabella could hardly believe she had missed such a juicy piece of gossip. After all, her system only provided answers when she actively searched for them; it wouldn't just pop up on its own.

Did this really happen? Let me see... Oh my, it's true! In reality, the reason they didn't have children for many years was because they were both too exhausted, with no time to prepare for pregnancy. That they managed to conceive was quite unexpected.

However, given Jessica's nature, she would never have a child if she wasn't certain about their love. She isn't the type to tragically use a child as a pawn to tie down a man. Instead, she would only feel that the child was a chain that bound her.

"Why... why didn't you keep it? Why didn't you tell me? If I had known, I would have... I just made a small mistake. You should have given me the chance to correct it!"

William was holding his head as if he was about to lose his mind.

Jessica was somewhat speechless as she said, "Back then, I didn't divorce you - wasn't that giving you a chance? But it seems the outcome has proven that my initial decision was right. You still let me down."

In marriage, one might stray because of moments of distraction, but perhaps due to deep affection or fear of change, the other partner would usually compromise. However, there was bound to be a limit to this.

She was once a strong woman who stood by William during his entrepreneurial journey. If it weren't for the successive blows of her husband's betrayal and the passing of her parents, she would have had a clearer understanding of what she wanted, instead of dragging things on for so long.

In her mind, Isabella couldn't help but lament, while the other three found themselves involuntarily nodding in agreement.

Moreover, everyone knew that Jessica's revelation of such a deeply hidden secret was not only due to her amnesia but also her firm determination to avoid any further entanglement.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Naturally, the thought crossed William's mind as well, causing his entire body to tremble. The look of agony on his face was so intense that the veins on his forehead were visibly throbbing.

"Jessica, I won't give up on you. I know it's you whom I love. I apologize for my past mistakes. I intend to pursue you anew, and I will patiently wait for you to turn back..." he asserted.

This line sounds so familiar, Isabella thought.

The Quirks were inexplicably reminded of a certain unfortunate person.

Christopher, who was discussing matters with Hayden in the studio, let out a hefty sneeze.

"Stop right there!" Jessica frowned. "I don't care what you're thinking, but I've said all I needed to. If you don't leave now, I'm really going to call the police and accuse you of harassment."

At this point, Jessica added with a stern face, "I'm not joking."

The chill emanating from her struck William dumb.

Keanu could hardly contain his anxiety and was about to say something when Jessica cut him off. "I respect my elders, but if they attempt to manipulate my feelings to their advantage, causing me discomfort and unhappiness just to satisfy others, then my respect ceases. I've experienced death once before, and my parents are no longer with me. So now, I only cater to my own emotions."

This statement was almost identical to the main theme of Isabella's performance.

In the end, Keanu couldn't utter a single word. He could only support Aliya as they departed sorrowfully.

William didn't want to leave, intent on being a persistent nuisance. However, there was no need to call the police. They were already divorced, so Evian had every right to have the security escort them out.

Even when being driven away, William still had to utter what he deemed as touching words.

Jessica disgustedly dug at her ear, not saying a word. The Quirk family members, however, looked at her with a hint of worry. They were concerned that Jessica might become soft- hearted. After all, even the strongest women could fall prey to persistent men.

How hilarious. This didn't work even for someone like Christopher, so if it had for William, I'd wash my hair upside down.

The Quirks choked on their saliva when they heard that.

Elsewhere, Christopher's ears were itching.

Before we arrived, Jessica had already reached out to her former network of freelance photographers via her phone. With no ties and only regret for the wasted years, she's now single- mindedly pursuing her dream, and nothing will stop her. I think she'll likely leave the country once she's out of the hospital.

Even if William wants to pester her, he'll still need to find her first. One thing to be thankful for is his past indifference toward Jessica. He was focused only on his own career, to the point he never stepped foot into her professional circle. Once she leaves, he wouldn't even have anyone to ask about her whereabouts. Hahaha!

For now, he's still holding on to hope, believing he can win her back. However, he'll soon be left with nothing but despair.

Once the bothersome fellow had left, everyone turned their attention to Jessica for a while. They realized that Jessica was truly fine on her own. She seemed exhilarated, as if she had been given a new lease on life, and was eagerly looking forward to recovering soon so she could start pursuing her dreams.

Everyone felt at ease and left, allowing Jessica to focus on her recovery.

Just after stepping out, an excited Rosalie suggested that they should all go for a stroll and have some fun. She had missed the last opportunity to spend time with her entire family, and it was a rare chance for her to be out today.

Seeing as this was the last day of her vacation, Isabella naturally wanted to make the most of it. She was in high spirits after watching that fantastic show and felt it was a cause for celebration.

Evian wasn't particularly busy right now, so naturally, she joined in.

As soon as they reached the entrance of the hospital, they saw the nuisance hadn't left yet.

Moreover, there were two more pieces of filth beside him.

Connor and Jennie.

After Jennie returned to the country, she relied heavily on the support of William. Now, her reputation in the entertainment industry had completely soured. She had nowhere else to turn and could only desperately cling to him.

However, the present William appeared as if he had woken up from a dream, ruthlessly pushing away Jennie, even going as far as to slap her hard. He then spoke with a menacing tone.

"It's all because of you, you wretch! You've ruined my family and my career. If you hadn't shown up, if you hadn't come back, Jessica and I would never have ended up like this. It's all your fault. How dare you show up in front of me now? I wish I could strangle you!"

Being hit by William was apparently Jennie's breaking point. After a momentary stunned silence, she went berserk. She fiercely reached out, clawing at William.

"Do you think by blaming everything on me, you can alleviate your own guilt? If it wasn't for the signals you gave me initially, making me believe I had a chance, I wouldn't have ended up here. It was you who gave me hope, and later, it was you who gave me the right to hurt Jessica. You silently approved everything, and now you want to wash your hands of it? Dream on. You are nothing but a fickle, unfaithful jerk! Jessica must be blind to have fallen for you. She's such a foolish woman!"

The woman he had once cherished as the most delicate flower was now pointing her finger and cursing at him, driving William to lose all rationality. The two of them started fighting outright, with William's parents coldly observing from the sidelines. Seeing this, Connor could only hurriedly step in to break up the fight.

The Quirks kept their distance, careful to avoid getting splattered with blood.

So, they turned on each other. Hmm, it seems like some passerby outside the fence has noticed this scene and is recording it on their phone. Looks like there'll be a new trending topic.

No sooner had Isabella finished her internal commentary when she turned around, only to find all three ladies of the Quirk family eagerly recording with their phones.
