Plus, with their second child on the way, they had even more reason to stick together! Albert lingered, unable to tear his gaze from the envy evident in Jessies eyes, a twinge of sorrow tugging at his heartstrings.
As Jessie left, Albert trailed behind her. Along the lengthy corridor, he observed her slender form and softly called out her name, Jessie.
Jessie shuddered.
Ignoring him, she continued towards the elevator, jabbing the down button.
Albert quickened his pace.
