Wendy suddenly stopped turning the door handle. Sharon's voice instantly haunted Wendy's mind.
The words echoed in her mind, "It's yours, Jordan. I have your child!"
She must have been too preoccupied with her happiness that she has totally forgotten the one-night
stand between Jordan and Sharon. She was a fool! She should have anticipated this.
She herself had his husband's baby, too.
Inside the room came Jordan's serious words, "Cut the crap, Sharon. Get out of here now. That's not
mine."
She didn't know what exactly was happening inside. She could only hear their conversation, "You are
my only man. If that baby is not yours, then whose could it be? I have been pregnant for eight weeks
already. Eight weeks ago, we slept together at the hotel. It's completely obvious."
Sharon's accusation was followed by an uncomfortable silence. Jordan looked at her. If they had sex
that night, why didn't he feel a thing? He would definitely feel something, right?
"Here you are. My B-ultrasound result. Embarrass yourself." Sharon pulled a piece of paper from her
bag and put it in front of Jordan.
Jordan saw clearly that the document bore her name and the time of pregnancy. It was true.
There were some footsteps outside and then they heard a military officer's voice, "Wendy, why don't
you go inside? Mr. Li is not there? I believe he's here."
Shit! Why was Wendy outside? When did she come? Was she listening to everything they were
saying?
Jordan hurriedly pulled aside the chair and rushed outside. But what he saw was only a view of
Wendy's back disappearing quickly from the corridor.
Jordan immediately followed her. Wendy was about to reach the door.
He quickened his steps even more and eventually caught up with her at the door.
"Wendy! Wait up!" He grabbed her wrist. Wendy turned around and slapped him on his face.
The deafening slap shocked not only Jordan, but the guard as well. It was not every day that a military
officer was beat up by his wife. The seemingly weak Wendy, Mr. Li's wife, slapped him in broad
daylight.
As Jordan gaped in astonishment, Wendy shook off his wrist and ran outside with a cold face.
Since this was a military zone, taxis did not really arrive here. Wendy was forced to just walk at that
moment.
The happiness she felt on her way here all turned to sorrow——thanks to that man, Jordan and his
mistress, Sharon.
Good for him. He got two women pregnant at the same time. But fuck that!
Wendy looked up at the sky and forced her tears back. She forced her lips to curve with a taunting
smile.
Jordan stared at Wendy's back, knowing that she had heard the conversation between him and
Sharon.
He didn't believe Sharon's baby was his. But why did Wendy believe that? She didn't trust him at all?
Jordan touched his aching cheek and relieved himself, "Her anger just shows her love to me, doesn't
it? Oh, why do I have to ruin it?"
With that thought in mind, he rushed into the parking lot and drove his military car outside to where
Wendy headed.
Sharon could do nothing but just stare at Jordan's car leaving the gates. She immediately jumped into
her own car and followed.
The guard was surprised at the scene, thinking, "Our colonel is so lucky to have so many women falling
in love for him. Men like him are just so lucky."
On the roadside was a park, inside which a river flowed. She walked towards the river as she tried to
control her emotions.
She now needed some time to straighten her mind. Why would her husband let another woman bear
his child?
Was it because of her? What did she do wrong? Was she not as pretty as Sharon? Or maybe he never
loved her?
She stopped at the fence surrounding the river and stared at the water, deeply lost in her thoughts.
At that time, her phone suddenly rang. She pulled the phone out of her handbag. Seeing that the caller
ID was just Jordan, she hung up without any hesitation.
He called and she just hung up on him. This cycle continued for over 20 times.
Then her WeChat notified a message. He sent it and it said, "Where are you? Please let me talk to
you."
She turned off her phone in disgust. She walked along the river and then sat down on a bench.
Wendy was nowhere to be found, but Sharon suddenly was just in front of him. Jordan's face turned
dark.
"Jordan, don't put on such a look. You made me pregnant, and now you just want to cut me off? What
kind of man are you?" It never crossed Sharon's mind that Jordan would be so cold and cruel to her.
How could he be a man like this?
Jordan cast a cold glance at Sharon and thought, "This woman will never stop until me and Wendy
broke up."
"Get the hell out of here." That was what Jordan said to her. Sharon's heart broke into pieces.
She shouted out angrily, "Jordan, since you only want the sex and not the child, then I will... just kill
myself instead of going through this alone." Sharon saw the river in the park and rushed towards it.
Jordan didn't even try to look at her. He continued to call Wendy but her phone was still shut down.
Sharon was in the riverside by now. But when she looked back, Jordan didn't follow at all. She felt
overwhelmed by anger and jumped into the river for real.
"Splash!" The loud noise caused many people to shout for help. "Help! Someone jumped into the river.
I think she may be trying to drown herself."
Jordan realized that Sharon has disappeared and people was shouting for help. He found out that
Sharon really dived, but she didn't know how to swim.
He instantly took off his jacket and jumped into the river as well.
The water was not very deep, but it was deep enough to swallow Sharon.
He groped in the water for half a minute but he still couldn't find her. He surfaced to catch a breath and
saw somebody flailing her arms just a meter away.
He then swam towards her. The riverside was already crowded with people.
When he arrived, Sharon was already sinking. He held her up, her head above water, and swam back
to the land.
Several people along the river extended a helping hand and put the unconscious Sharon on the
ground.
Jordan immediately pressed her chest and helped her spit out water.
After repeating this for like a dozen times, Sharon eventually came around.
Jordan felt quite relieved.
"You are so young. Nothing is worth dying for."
"Exactly. Life is precious. Don't give up easily."
Several middle-aged women began to give their advice.
Sharon looked at the people around her. Jordan was still wearing an emotionless face. She knew that
he saved her.
She sat up and embraced Jordan, whose clothes were also soaking wet.
"Jordan, I know you would never leave me. You really love me." She knew he still loved her, even only
by a bit.
With that sight, the crowd instantly understood what was going on. They all shook their heads and left.
Young people now thought too little of the precious life. A little trouble would lead to suicide——
worrying, worrying indeed.
Wendy stood nearby, looking coldly at them hugging each other.
"He cared about her indeed. Sharon just carelessly threw herself in the river, and he immediately
jumped inside to save her.
How touching..." Wendy thought to herself as she rolled her eyes in disgust.
