Chapter 791
But now, Casper's confidence was shaken. Jessica had found her own strengths
and could make her own money. She didn't need his or Steven's wealth anymore. A wave of panic hit Casper. If that was true, how was he supposed to hold onto her? Grasping at straws, he brought up their child.
"Have you considered that the baby you're carrying is mine? What's going to
happen to you and the baby once I'm gone?" he asked.
"I'll raise our child with Steven," Jessica said.
These days, love didn't mean much to her. If anything, life had only gotten better
without it.
Casper stressed every word as he asked, "What happens if Steven finds out the
baby isn't his? How are you going to handle it if you end up alone?"
He was desperate, as if this was the only way he could prove that he still
mattered.
"That's why I'm asking you not to tell him. No one will ever know as long as you
keep quiet," Jessica said.
Casper said nothing. Jessica added, "And even if he does find out one day, it
won't change anything."
She had stopped feeling like she needed a man in her life.
Jessica chuckled. "Now that I can make my own money, I can handle everything
myself. So there's no need for you to worry.
"Besides, your parents have been reaching out a lot lately. I'm guessing
something's wrong with the company again."
She stayed calm as she continued, "As their son, you'll keep worrying about them
if you stay here. But Casper, there's nothing you can do for them from here. "You'd be better off going back. At least then, you'd still have your family."
Her words hit Casper like a sledgehammer. Tears slipped down his face as he
looked at Jessica, his eyes full of sorrow.
She'd been talking this whole time—about her journey, struggles, how she had grown. And in her words, he could feel just how much she had changed. Jessica had been pretty naive when they got divorced. It was his incapabilities that pushed her to become so strong. She didn't count on anyone anymore.
Casper felt a sharp pain in his chest, but he couldn't find the words to respond. All
he could do was put on a tough front and say, "Don't regret this!"
Jessica had gone over this moment
in her head more than she could
count, convinced she'd stay
perfectly calm when it finally
happened. But there was still a dull
ache in her chest.
After all, Casper was a man she had
truly loved once. How could she feel
nothing when this was the end of
everything? Even so, she knew she
had to hold her ground.
"Don't worry. I won't regret it," she said.

Gary. Jessica stood close by, listening.
"You wanted me to come home, didn't you?" Casper asked.
Gary was caught off guard. Just
moments ago, Jessica had told him and Julia that after seeing Casper
she'd talk him into coming home.
And now, Casper really was saying
he'd go back. Had she actually
convinced him?

that you'd come back."
Casper glanced at Jessica, but she didn't show any sign of stopping him.
