They Want Me Back 63

Chapter 63 

When people were at a loss for words, they would often laugh instead. Jessica’s lips curled into a mocking smile, and she said. Oh? Then I won’t resign

The moment the words left her lips Madeline’s expression frore slightly. Forcing a smile, she said, That’s really great news, Jessi.” 

Your smile doesn’t seem sincere,Jessica joked

Madeline insisted. Jessi, I genuinely hope you’ll stay. If you’re resigning because of me, my conscience won’t be at peace

Madeline, drop that act. No matter what kind of relationship you have with Jacob or Brian, you had better not offend me.Jessica issued her final warning 

The blame for the affair was not on one person alone. She would not place all the fault on Madeline while turning a blind eye to Brian’s betrayal

With that, she picked up her phone from the conference table and announced. Tm leaving. You have Brian and Jacob now.” 

She walked away decisively, not sparing even a glance at Brian

Just as she said. Brian and Jacob were no longer her family, so she would never look back

At that moment, Madeline was sure that Jessica had completely let go of Brian and Jacob

She had spent years carefully imitating Jessica, striving to match her in every way, even losing herself in the process, just to secure her place by Brian’s side

In the end, the very things she had longed for and fought so hard to obtain were things Jessica discarded without hesitation

Madeline felt like she was a clown. What she thought Jessica cared about most, and what she thought she stole from Jessica, turned out to be something Jessica didn’t even want

Unaware of Madeline’s inner turmoil, Jessica returned to her office. She gathered her belongings in preparation to leave

Suddenly, the door was pushed open. Brian entered and locked it

He demanded. Jessica, are you really determined to divorce me, huh? Are you really prepared to give up on Jake?” 

His eyes were slightly red. Whether from anger or something else was unclear

You should’ve received the court summons by now. Mr. Atkinson, we are both adults. I don’t have time to waste on you.” Jessica glanced at Brian once, then lowered her head to continue packing the small items on her desk

In the storage box were a scattering of little things and a few planners she had made herself

Without warning, Brian swept the box to the floor, scattering its contents. He shouted, I won’t let you leave.” 

Jessica’s eyes, normally calm and bright, now took on a chill that made them appear faintly cold

When she looked at him with her chill eyes, Brian’s rage suddenly had nowhere to go

Even if we get divorced...He paused, his voice deeper. You don’t have to resign.” 

As soon as he finished speaking, his emotions flared again. He stepped forward and grabbed Jessica’s arm. You’re trying to draw a clean line between us. You want to cut ties completely, don’t you?” 

Brian thought, She said divorce without giving me a chance. She said she doesn’t want Jacob, and she just refuses to check on him. Now she even wants to quit

Panic rose in his chest. He feared that after this, there would be nothing left linking them

Let go of me.Jessica snapped

Brian insisted. No way.” 

Jessica grew impatient and tried to break free, but Brian’s grip only tightened

As they struggled, nausea suddenly welled up. Jessica turned her head and retched

Brian froze, staring at Jessica’s tightly furrowed brows in disbelief

Jessica reacted quickly. She covered her mouth and stepped a few paces back. She looked at him coldly but said nothing

Jessica thought in terror, Could it be I won’t be able to hide the pregnancy much longer

Brian’s expression turned grim. His lips trembled as though he wanted to speak, but in the end, no words came. He realized that even his touch now made her sick. He hadn’t expected her to be so disgusted by him

Brian said nothing more. He glanced at Jessica’s pale face and finally left
