Chapter 195
In Birmingham.
In the evening, Jessica returned to the familiar place.
The plan that she had prepared for a long time failed.
She was right back where she'd started.
When Jessica arrived at the airport, the first sentence she said was, "I want to stay with my grandma at
the hospital tonight."
"Sure." Lambert agreed without saying anything more and asked the driver to send them directly to
Williams Hospital.
When Jessica arrived at grandma's ward, the nurse was giving her an IV.
She walked over and said in a choking voice, "Grandma, what's wrong?"
Jessica knew that her departure must have been a huge blow to her grandma, but her grandma should
know that she would come back to visit her after a while.
Her grandma held Jessica tightly with her wrinkled hands. "Why are you back? I'm fine. I just have a
relapse."
Her grandma's voice was weak. Jessica was very regretful. Perhaps it was a wrong choice to leave.
If she had stayed in Birmingham, her grandma might not have relapsed.
"Grandma, have a good rest. I'll talk to the doctor and stay here with you tonight."
Then Jessica went to meet her grandma's attending doctor.
Lambert followed her and advised, "It's late now. The doctor may have left. I'll ask him to see you
tomorrow."
At this moment, Jessica couldn't help but feel the blood rushing into her head. Seeing her grandma
lying there weakly made her mind whirl.
"Lambert, be honest with me. Why did my grandma suddenly get sick?" She asked, glaring at Lambert.
"Grandma wanted to see you but you were not around, so she got anxious. You know that she can't
bear any mood swings now," Lambert explained, "I dropped by this morning and found her in bad
condition, so I immediately called the doctor. Fortunately, she got treated in time or it would be
catastrophic."
Without getting a satisfying answer, Jessica strode straight to the doctor's office.
Sure enough, the doctor had already left.
Jessica looked back at Lambert and said sarcastically, "You can go home. You don't have to follow me.
I'm not able to run away from you anyway. Actually, you are much better than Oliver, you're much better
at controlling people than Oliver."
Lambert didn't take her sarcasm seriously and said serenely, "I'm doing this for your own sake. You're
in no condition to stay in that place. The medical conditions are appalling there. If anything happens,
both you and the baby will suffer."
Jessica sneered. "Are you more concerned about me or the baby?"
She found that Lambert seemed to care about the baby more than she did.
Lambert actually knew that Jessica was in a bad mood and might collapse at any time, but he'd still
forced her back.
"It's our baby. Of course, I'm concerned about the baby, but I'm more worried about your health,"
Lambert lied effortlessly.
Jessica didn't buy it and returned back to her grandma's ward.
Afraid that any accident would happen again, Lambert left several bodyguards outside the ward.
When Jessica came out to take a walk in the middle of the night, she realized that she was closely
guarded and it was impossible to escape.
Her grandma fell asleep after the IV was removed and didn't wake up until midnight.
"Jessica," she called.
Jessica was dozing off at her bedside.
"Yes, what's wrong? What happened?" Hearing grandma calling her name, Jessica jumped up from the
sofa.
"You're sleepy. Go to bed. Staying up late is bad for you and the baby," grandma said worriedly.
"I'm fine. I slept all day. I didn't know why I fell asleep just now." Jessica rubbed her eyes. "Grandma,
are you feeling better?"
"Yes, I told you I was fine."
"Grandma, I won't leave you again. No matter where I go, I'll take you with me."
Jessica was so regretful.
"Kid, I just want you to live an easier life. I don't want to be a burden to you and I'm so sorry that I was.
I can't live with myself if I drag you down again, so just go the way you want in the future."
In the ward, they censored themselves with each other.
Jessica ended the conversation before her grandma got exhausted and lay down on the bed beside
her to rest.
The next day, Amy and Annie came to pick Jessica up and drove her back to that disgusting
Jessica&Lambert's House.
As soon as she stepped into the yard, Jessica felt breathless.
Lambert had been waiting for her and asked why she looked pale with apprehension.
Jessica replied without enthusiasm, "I'm a little tired. I want to have a rest in my room."
"Go ahead. French wedding designers will come in the afternoon to discuss the style of the wedding Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
dress with you. Just tell them what you like."
Jessica stopped in her tracks. After a few seconds, she answered, "I see."
Vicky eavesdropped on their conversation outside the door.
After Jessica left the living room, she heard Vicky persuade Lambert to think twice and assert that
Jessica was just playing hard to get.
Lambert looked at his mother coldly. "Mother, if you're tired, go take a rest."
Jessica went back to her room which was kept just as she'd left it.
Maybe Lambert knew that she would come back eventually.
After Jessica climbed onto the bed, someone knocked on the door. She knew it must be Vicky.
There was no one she could count on now. Vicky had no say in front of Lambert, so Jessica didn't want
to talk to her.
She said, "I'm sleepy. We can have a word after I wake up."
Vicky knew that the wedding was on the agenda given that they were to discuss the wedding dress this
afternoon.
She'd thought the wedding would be held after Jessica gave birth.
No big families in Birmingham had ever had a shotgun wedding and she deemed it too disgraceful for a
prestigious family like the Williams family.
Lambert had become crazier.
Vicky couldn't bring herself to see her son go nuts and lose his mind, so she wouldn't give up stopping
their wedding.
"Jessica, I know you're awake. I need to talk to you."
Jessica was irritated by the relentless knocking on the door and said, "Come in."
Vicky got angrier because Jessica lay on the bed and didn't even look at her. Lambert had been
neglecting her and now even Jessica, an outsider, dared to shrug her off.
