Chapter 499
Esther couldn’t hear the rest of Jasper’s words. She was completely absorbed by the pregnancy test
report in her hand. She kept checking the numbers, fully aware that Jasper wouldn’t make a joke about
something like this.
She was pregnant. She never thought she could conceive again after the triplets’ traumatic birth. It was
beyond her imagination that she would be pregnant once more.
Esther gently touched her flat abdomen with her right hand, her face turning pale with disbelief.
“Esther, are you okay?” Jasper asked.
Esther’s lips quivered, and she whispered, “Jasper, am I really pregnant?”
“Esther, if you’re not sure. We can take another test,” Jasper offered, carefully helping Esther sit on a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtnearby wooden bench. The breeze played with her hair, revealing her beautiful face.
Esther shook her head. “I can’t do the test here.”
Jasper looked puzzled. “Esther, based on your current HCG levels, you need an ultrasound.”
“Jasper, I can’t do it here. If news of my pregnancy gets out, I won’t be able to finalize my divorce with
Bradley.”
Esther’s words left Jasper bewildered. He asked cautiously, “Why can’t you finalize it? Bradley treated
you poorly before because he believed you harmed Mr. Thomas. Now that the video. has been
exposed, it’s clear you didn’t hurt him. He doesn’t love you either. Divorcing seems like the logical
choice, doesn’t it?”
“Jasper, you don’t understand him.” Esther clutched the roses in her hand, her eyes welling up with
tears as she looked at Jasper. “Bradley is a proud man. My request for a divorce is a blow to his self-
esteem. He can’t love me, he can discard me, but I can’t be the one to leave him first.
“If he finds out I’m pregnant, he’ll definitely go to court, claiming I hid my pregnancy to seek a divorce.
Jasper, sometimes it’s better to keep things simple. I won’t undergo any tests here.”
Jasper knelt before Esther and said softly, “Esther, if you’re worried that Bradley might mistreat you
after learning about your pregnancy, how about marrying me…
Esther was about to refuse, but Jasper continued. “Esther, don’t reject me right away. Listen to me first.
“I know you don’t love me now, that’s fine. I can wait.
“I’m willing to spend my whole life waiting for you. Even if you never love me in this lifetime, that’s okay.
“As long as you allow me to be by your side, I will be content.”
The physically and emotionally exhausted Esther was moved hearing Jasper’s heartfelt confession.
She gently bit her lip and shook her head. “Jasper, I’m sorry, I can’t do that. It’s not because you’re not
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgood enough, but because I no longer have the capacity to love someone.”
In her youth, she had fallen in love with Bradley, who consumed her entire adolescence. She had been
drawn to him like a moth to a flame, immersing herself in the fiery love that was
Bradley.
In the end, all she got were wounds and pain. She became scared and weary, longing to spend her
remaining years watching Felix grow up. If she could find her daughter, her life would have no regrets.
“Esther, I understand Bradley hurt you deeply, but I’m here to help you out of that tough. situation,”
Jasper said affectionately and earnestly. “You don’t have to feel guilty or worry about using me, Esther.
Even if you use me, I’d be happy to be the man you lean on.”
Jasper understood Esther’s nature better than anyone else. She wasn’t like other women who basked
in the attention of many admirers. When she chose Bradley, she had already dismissed. all other
potential romantic interests
