    Chapter 182


    After arriving at the house, Jessica took the medicine andy down to sleep.


    When she woke up, she felt nothing.


    She didn''t expect that she had to go through so many hardships to have a child. It turned out to be


    extremely difficult for her to have a baby of her own.


    Perhaps God had deliberately punished her because her purpose of wanting the child was not pure.


    She was not loving the child wholeheartedly. It was that she had to keep it because of her own


    conditions: there was no other way.


    She also thought that the road to happiness was full of hardships. Since there were so many hardships


    when she was pregnant, she thought that after the child was born, her life would be all smooth and


    happy.


    Jessica had been in bed for a long time and felt very ufortable, so she went out of bed for a walk.


    When she passed Lambert''s study, she heard someone talking inside. It turned out that Lambert didn''t


    go back to work after he sent her back.


    Jessica fell asleep after taking the medicine and thought he had left.


    Thest time she eavesdropped on Lambert''s phone call, she heard nothing. Fortunately, Lambert


    didn''t find out about it. Otherwise, she would be more restricted by him.


    This time, she only passed by study. Although the door was closed, the door of Jessica''s studio was


    open, and the sound naturally drifted from the study. It was hard for Jessica not to hear it.


    Lambert probably thought that Jessica would sleep for a long time after taking the medicine, so when


    he spoke, he had no scruples at all. He sounded loud and excited.


    "This time, we must destroy him. Otherwise, when he turns over in the future, all of us will not end well.


    You should know this better than I do." Lambert raised his voice and said so.


    Jessica''s heart thumped.


    The person Lambert said was probably Oliver.


    Although in the past, Oliver was indeed disrespectful to him verbally and never took him seriously, he


    had never harmed Lambert.


    Jessica knew that Oliver also knew that the grudges of the previous generation were a matter that


    belonged to them. He just chose not to care nor worry about it, and he would not deliberately stir up


    trouble.


    Jessica wanted to leave quickly. She was an outsider and could do nothing about the grudges between


    the two brothers.


    However, when Lambert clearly said Oliver''s name, Jessica couldn''t take even one step and she felt so


    heavy in her legs as if she was dragging cinder blocks around.


    She was eager to know what Lambert wanted to do to Oliver. Last time, David told her that Oliver was


    in trouble, and couldn''t take care of her. But he was still worried about her.


    Jessica stood outside the door and listened, but at the critical moment, Lambert''s voice became


    smaller. She did not dare to enter the studio, which would be eye-catching and would easily arouse


    Lambert''s suspicion. She did not want to rm him.


    She quietly left and went to the yard.


    The sun was bright outside, and she sat on a chair by theke.


    She was looking at ripples on the water of theke and a piece of green duckweed was blown away by


    the spring breeze.


    She felt like her fate, like this humble duckweed, was heading nowhere.


    Jessica inadvertently recalled her previous days with Oliver since she lost her memory.


    It was probably the happiest day of her life after her mother died.


    At that time, she felt how lucky she was to be able to have Oliver. Although she had doubts, they were


    soon erased by a great sense of happiness. It was probably because she didn''t want to think about


    those things. She just wanted to live in the present.


    Jessica sometimes didn''t know if she should never recover her memory so that she could be willing to


    be with Oliver and never be separated from him. That way, she would have reliance and home, which


    was the kind of warmth she had always longed for.


    However, it often backfired and she remembered everything.


    Jessica was so preupied with her thoughts that she didn''t notice Lambert was approaching her.


    Lambert went to the room to see if Jessica was awake.


    When he went in and saw that she was no longer in the room, he came out to look for her, only to find


    that she was sitting alone by theke and feeling the breeze.


    It was not until Lambert put his hand on Jessica''s shoulder that she felt he was here. She suddenly


    stood up and asked, "Why are you here?"


    Obviously, Jessica''s reaction was too much, and her face was filled with panic as if she had done


    something wrong and was discovered.


    "I went to your room to see if you were feeling better. When I found out you weren''t there, I came out to


    look for you."


    "Thank you for caring about me. I''m fine. You know I''ve always been like this. I can get through it."


    Jessica used the word "get through", which made Lambert''s heart hurt.


    He didn''t want her to suffer so much.


    But he was also human and had his own dignity. He couldn''t just watch Oliver''s child be born safely in


    front of him.


    Ever since Jessica moved in, Lambert had especially arranged her meals.


    She probably didn''t know that in her each meal, a colorless and tasteless white powder was added


    there. In a small amount, it could hurt the baby in her stomach, and if in arge amount, it could even


    kill the baby.


    Lambert got the powder from Toby.


    Toby had sent someone to investigate Marina''s background, and he knew that she had been looking


    for a kind of powder, which was to harm the unborn child.


    Later, Toby found the supplier of the powder.


    Toby didn''t want Oliver''s child to be born, but it was always difficult for him to do something.


    When Jessica was in the GrandVille Apartment, he could do it through Tina, because she was the


    closest person to the GrandVille Apartment. Ever since she entered the GrandVille Apartment, she


    began to bribe the servants inside.


    However, he knew that Tina just didn''t want Jessica to have the child too smoothly and she would


    make some trouble for her.


    But Tina definitely didn''t want to kill the child in Jessica''s womb, because she was thinking that when


    the time came, she would be the mother of the child and that she would be cherished because of


    the child.


    Toby thought that the one who had the same goal as him could only be Lambert.


    Then Lambert took Jessica to his ce. God was even helping him.


    At first, Lambert felt guilty when he saw how Jessica had no doubts at all when she was eating and


    was trusting him wholeheartedly.


    Later, he gradually convinced himself that this was also for Jessica to end the past.


    Moreover, ever since he became the president of the Williams Group, he often had nightmares. In the


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    dreams, all the people in Birmingham were scolding him, saying that such a child of a mistress even


    had the face to sit in the position of a president so shamelessly.


    He also dreamed that after Jessica knew all the truth, she would look at him with indifference and


    disgust, which would suddenly wake him up.


    Yes, he was, a disgusting and mean bastard.
