My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1712

Chapter 1712 Because I Like You

“It must be Jessie! Why can she stay with him, but I can’t?” Lisa scoffed, feeling a sense of injustice.

“Well…” Bethany was at a loss for words.

Just then, Vincent arrived. He happened to turn a corner and hear Lisa making a scene, so he

answered, “Jessie is Julian’s girlfriend, so of course, she has to stay with him.”

Lisa’s eyes instantly filled with jealousy. What? Jessie is Julian’s girlfriend? How cunning! Besides,

Vincent is the one to say this, so it must be true. In that case, Jessie will be a part of the Gilmore

Family in the future! Now that she has Julian, all of her future resources will be at her disposal!

“It seems Miss Silverstein is quite the charmer if she managed to win Julian’s heart so quickly!” Lisa

commented snidely.

Vincent had intended to visit Julian, but since he was asleep, he could only leave. “Bethany, I’ll visit

again tomorrow.”

Seeing that he was about to leave, Lisa immediately seized the opportunity and said, “Director Cooper,

I’ll go with you.”

At one in the morning, Jessie was asleep when she felt someone putting a blanket over her. When she

opened her eyes, she saw Julian crouching by the edge of her bed, looking at her tenderly.

“You’re awake.” Jessie quickly sat up. She reached over to touch his forehead and felt that his fever

had subsided while his body temperature was back to normal.

Julian reached out and took her hand in his, his eyes filled with an emotion she could not decipher.

“I’ll take you back to the hotel to rest.”

“No, you can’t leave the hospital yet,” Jessie refused. She was worried that his fever would recur and

wanted him to be hospitalized and monitored.

“I’m already fine, but you can’t be mistreated.” Julian looked at her sleeping in the small bed in distress.

Not only was the mattress hard, but she also didn’t have any room to roll over.

“How is this being mistreated? This is good enough. I’ll have you know, I once slept on the floor for two

years!” Jessie smiled. She wasn’t that spoiled of a child.

At her words, the pain in Julian’s eyes intensified, and he held her hand. “You suffered too much in the

past. You must not suffer any more in the future.”

Jessie blinked. “I’m fine; a little hardship is nothing. Being mistreated isn’t a big deal either. I—”

“But some people will be worried,” Julian interrupted.

Jessie wasn’t playing dumb, but she wasn’t sure if he was the one who would be worried about her, so

she could only ask, “Whom are you talking about?”

Julian sighed. “It’s me, of course.”

Instantly, Jessie’s heart warmed. She pursed her lips, but the joy she felt overflowed from her eyes,

and she bashfully averted her gaze. “Why would you be worried about me?”

“What do you think?” Julian countered.

“I don’t know.” How could she have the nerve to yearn for his affection?

Julian didn’t want to confess his feelings like this, but this girl was just too dense, so he could only

explain everything thoroughly. He reached out and nudged the tip of her nose. “Of course, I’m worried

about you because I like you. Don’t you understand?”

Jessie felt her heart stop at his words. She had never expected to be able to receive a confession from

Julian at a time like this. Did I save humanity in my previous life?

“Really? Then, thank you for being so worried about me,” Jessie said thankfully, feeling warm on the

inside.

“Pack your things. Let’s go back to the hotel.” Still, Julian didn’t want her to sleep in the hospital bed

and wanted to take her back to the hotel.

As Jessie had woken up, she wouldn’t be able to fall asleep again for some time, so she got up and

packed her bag, then opened the door, only to see Bethany and Harper were sleeping on each side of

the bench opposite them. Upon hearing the noise, they both woke up at the same time.

“Young Master Julian, are we going back?”

“Yeah! We’re going back to the hotel.” After speaking, Julian reached out and held Jessie’s hand.

Bethany and Harper exchanged glances. It seems that Young Master Julian’s hospitalization helped

develop their relationship relatively quickly.
