He pretended to be busy, but Jessica wasn’t idle.

First, she gave instructions to the nurse on how to take care of the child, then mentioned several things to watch out for regarding the baby.
Michael heard all of this as soon as he came in.
“Jessica, I really owe you. The nurse said if you hadn’t come in time to sign for the child, things might have been dangerous.”
Michael looked at Jessica with a fragile, helpless look on his face.
“Sorry for bothering you. I’m here now, so you can head home for now.”
After Jessica finished speaking to the nurse, she turned to look at Michael.
“It’s nothing. If something happened to the child, I wouldn’t just stand by. Don’t worry.”
Before they knew it, it was the evening.
Michael saw Jessica out and noticed a familiar figure nearby with his peripheral vision.
Actually, he wanted Jessica to stay a little longer.
Jordan was still asleep, and as soon as Jordan woke up and started crying, Jessica would definitely choose to stay with the child
But since that person had come, he absolutely couldn’t let Jessica see her.
“Be careful on your way back. If you’re busy tomorrow, you don’t have to come visit Jordan. Work is the most important.”
“What are you talking about? You and the child are the most important,” replied Jessica before getting into the car.
Shannon had long gone back to the company to handle things, leaving her alone at the hospital.
Recently, the shareholders were unhappy with her frequent absences from the company.
If they found out she came out again because of Michael’s child, they would definitely cause trouble.
Fortunately, several projects had already started progressing, so those old–fashioned people had no time to watch her closely.
Money was more important to them than her.
The car stopped at a corner, and Jessica leaned forward, almost lying over the steering wheel.
Sure enough, she saw that Michael hadn’t gone back.
The hospital entrance was blocked by a lot of greenery.
From behind the tall and lush plants, a woman appeared.
It was Helen, still wearing the same clothes as in the morning, probably hadn’t left at all.
“Why are you still here?”
Michael saw Helen and looked impatient.
He grabbed her hand and pulled her to a corner with no one around
“You were the one making a fuss to see the child. Now look at what you’ve done. You were supposed to take care of Jordan not to hospitalize her!”
Helen felt a bit guilty and said softly, “Jordan was the one who insisted on finding you. Didn’t you have something to do today? I didn’t want Jordan to disturb you, but she broke free from me and ran into the street, then got hit by a car. Has Jordan woken up

yet?”
Not yet,” Michael said impatiently.
“Don’t come here again recently.”
Helen sneered. “You don’t want me here because your first love wants to see Jordan, right? I know, Jordan keeps calling her Ms. Wilder‘ and feels that she’s better than me. Today, I finally met the so–called CEO of the Wilder Group. The rumors are true, but now, you don’t deserve her.”
Michael’s pride was trampled on the ground, and of course, he couldn’t take it.
He pushed Helen.
“What do you mean by ‘don’t deserve‘? We grew up together and were meant to be!”
Helen still looked down on him, scrutinizing him from head to toe.
“You? She is CEO of the Wilder Group now. What are you? Besides, Jessica is already married. You’re delusional if you think you can get back together with her.”
“Go back to the hotel. Don’t come out again.”
Michael couldn’t stand it anymore and drove Helen away.
Before leaving, Helen pointed at Michael and said, “Don’t forget your promise to me. I’m waiting for your news at the hotel.”
After saying that, she walked toward the road.
Jessica, who had been watching them from the corner, didn’t miss the malicious and murderous look in Michael’s eyes.
It seemed that Michael had wanted to get rid of Helen for a long time but was currently unable to act.
