Chapter 480 

Chapter 480 

With the scholarship and new place to stay, Jessica’s days could be said to be getting casier. 

Even in her studies, she gained a lot of new support. 

Jessica’s days began to feel fulfilling. 

Time flew by in the blink of an eye. 

Half a year passed quickly. 

During the past six months, this villa only had one tenant, Jessica. 

She had also asked about it with the landlord. 

But the landlord said that this was a new house, and he wanted to attract reliable tenants. 

Combined with the relatively high rent, he had been selecting for so long without finding a suitable tenant. Jessica did not doubt this reason too much. 

After all, everyone would take better care of a new house. 

Moreover, it was not the start of the school year, so there were indeed not many new students coming. 

And the landlord truly cherished this house. 

He would ask her about the situation here almost every day. 

Jessica always responded to his inquiries, and she even took some photos as proof. 

Over the past six months, their chat had become more and more frequent. 

They seemed to have turned into friends. 

As time passed, Jessica was also calculating her credits. 

In about another month, she would have enough credits to graduate. 

Then she could return home. 

Perhaps because she was about to go back, one evening, Jessica could not resist logging into her old email account.. 

Before, she was afraid that Marina Bailey would find her, so she did not dare to log in. 

Because she was afraid that seeing the emails Marina sent her would shatter the determination she had finally made. 

After logging in this time, Jessica indeed found an email from Marina. 

The strange thing was that the email was very recent, sent just yesterday. 

Jessica immediately opened the email. 

As she read the contents, her expression froze. 

After she finally reacted to the content of the email, she hurriedly booked a ticket back home on her phone. 

Then she grabbed a few pieces of clothing from the wardrobe and rushed out the door. 

Along the way, Jessica felt extremely anxious. 

Her mind kept replaying the email Marina had sent her. 

Marina was pregnant, and she was about to give birth! 

She never expected that Marina would get married so quickly. 

Although medical technology was advanced now, giving birth was still challenging for women. 

There were still many examples of accidents happening during childbirth every year. 

This was the most vulnerable time for Marina, and Jessica had to be by her side. 

Just as Jessica was about to board the plane, her tutor suddenly called. 

Jessi, I have good news to tell you. Your paper has been selected. Karter’s voice was particularly excited on the other end of the phone, but she was interrupted by Jessica before she could finish her sentence. 

“Karter, I have something urgent to do and need to go back home. We can talk later.” 

“Go back? Are you going back now? But there are urgent matters here as well. Can’t you delay your return for a couple of days?” 

Chapter 480 

“No, I can’t wait here. I’m boarding the plane right now. We’ll talk after I come back.” Jessica lung up the phone after finishing her words. 

Then she started boarding the plane. 

The flight was nearly a dozen hours long, but Jessica did not even close her eyes. 

Her hands were nervously clasped together. 

Finally, when she arrived, she immediately took a taxi to the residence of the Bailey family. 

However, the place that used to be brightly lit was now tightly closed with the gate shut. 

It was pitch black inside. 

Jessica pressed the doorbell for a long time, but no one came to answer. 

She instantly frowned at the situation. 

Why was everyone not at home? 

Or did something happen? 

Jessica’s heart became chaotic. 

She was really afraid that something might have happened to Marina during the time she was away. 

Jessica quickly took out her phone, intending to call Marina. 

But no one answered the call. 

Jessica was so anxious that her fingers trembled. 

No one picked up the phone. 

Could something really be wrong? 

Jessica turned around, preparing to run out. 

But inattentive, she directly bumped into a wall of flesh. 

When she raised her head, she saw a face that made her shudder all over. 

Peter… 

How could he be here? 

“Are you looking for Marina?” Peter looked at Jessica who was still in shock and asked in a low voice. 

And at this moment, Jessica had already come back to her senses and pushed Peter away. 

She took a few steps back. 

Looking at Jessica, who was avoiding him, a hint of hurt flashed in Peter’s eyes. 

But he quickly composed himself. 

Then, he stabilized his emotions and looked at Jessica in front of him. 

“Do not worry, Marina is fine. She’s just in the hospital because she’s about to give birth.” 

“Marina is about to give birth?” Jessica heard this and did not argue with Peter anymore. 

“Yes, everyone is at the hospital now. That’s why there’s no one at home.” Peter explained. 

“Which hospital? Jessica immediately asked. 

“Let me take you there. It’s not easy to get a taxi around here, and this way, we can get there faster.” Peter suggested. Jessica instinctively wanted to refuse, but when she thought of Marina still being in the hospital, she nodded. 

At this moment, she was not in the mood to think about anything else. 

Seeing that Jessica had agreed, Peter immediately ran over and opened the front passenger door for her. 

However, Jessica went around to the back seat by herself. 

A hint of darkness flashed in Peter’s eyes, but he quickly returned to normal. 

At least she was willing to sit in his car. 

This was already a huge progress. 

After getting into the car, neither of them spoke. 

Chapter 480 

Jessica’s body was tense all the time. 

Seeing Jessica in such a state from the driver’s seat, Peter could not help but say something- 

“You don’t have to worry too much. Marina’s condition is quite good now. Simon has already made preparations. They have hired the best doctors. She’ll be fine.” 

In fact, from the moment Jessica was on her way home, Peter had been following her. 

They boarded and disembarked the same plane. 

However, Jessica was so nervous the entire time that she did not notice Peter following her. 

For the past six months, they had been living under the same sky, almost inseparable, yet she had never noticed. 

If it weren’t for Jessica being in such a hurry just now, he would not have appeared. 

“Okay” Jessica heard this and felt a slight relief. 

Half an hour later. 

The car stopped at the entrance of the hospital. 

Jessica rushed into the hospital as soon as she got out of the car. 

However, once she entered, she realized that she had no idea which ward Marina was in. 

As she turned around, she almost bumped into Peter, who was catching up to her. 

“Sorry.” Jessica immediately apologized.
