His Precious Love

Chapter 502

Jacob sent the woman's details to the agent before introducing himself. “Just call me Jacob. You can stay here for

now. I'll buy you a phone and get you a helper.”

“Thanks,” Jessica answered gratefully before continuing, “Feel free to let me know if you need any help. I will

definitely cooperate. You're such a kind person. Why are you still single?”

Jacob sighed and replied, “Exactly. I'm baffled as well. How is it possible that a Samaritan like me is not able to find

a girlfriend?”

At that moment, Jacob thought of Wyatt.

D*mn! It doesn't make sense that that hot-tempered guy is already married and going to become a dad!

Jacob stayed in Yartran for the next four days to settle Jessica's living arrangements.

On the fifth day, he returned to his country after that.

Not wanting to give Hazel an opportunity to nag at him, the moment Jacob reached home, he took out a photo and

said, “Mom, don't scold me. I'm dating someone now. She's pregnant and is currently staying in Yartran to focus on

her pregnancy.”

When Hazel heard that, she started hitting her son while exclaiming, “Pregnant? You're really putting in a lot of

effort just to lie to me, eh?”

Jacob yelped in pain as he tried to avoid his mother's attacks. “Mom, I'm not lying! I took her to the hospital for a

checkup. The baby is mine. Do you think I have nothing better to do than find a random person to pacify you?”

Taking a pause, he continued, “You can talk to her yourself if you don't believe me.”

Jacob dialed a number on the phone before passing it to Hazel.

The woman remained doubtful and had a feeling that her son was lying to her. However, what she did not know

was that, for the past few days, Jacob and Jessica had been going through details about themselves in anticipation

of Hazel's questioning.

As such, Jessica sounded totally convincing over the phone and managed to give Hazel a good impression. She

spoke as if she had known Jacob for a long time and told Hazel that she had approached the man again after their

breakup as she was not capable of raising the baby alone.

The two women chatted for around ten minutes, and after the conversation, Hazel was completely convinced.

Before the call ended, Hazel reminded gently, “Take good care of yourself and the baby. I will visit you a few days

later.”

“Okay, Mom.”

After hanging up, Hazel continued hitting Jacob. “You're really something, aren't you? How could you have gotten

someone pregnant and not know about it? The girl even had to look for you herself! Your dad is such a decent man.

Why didn't you inherit any of his good genes? You have even left her in a foreign country all by herself. Is she a

disgrace to you? Even I am feeling embarrassed for you!”

“Ouch! Mom, it hurts! I'm your son! How can you bear to hit me?” Jacob grumbled.

He was amazed at how strong his mother was underneath her elegant appearance. She might even be able to beat

Wyatt's mother in a fight.

“It's not that I didn't want to bring her back. She is still in the early stages of her pregnancy and is not in the pink of

health. What if she has a miscarriage? If that happens, it would be too late for regrets.”

Hazel saw the logic in her son's argument and stopped hitting him. “I need to tell your dad to book air tickets for us

to visit our daughter-in-law.”

After saying that, the woman turned around and headed upstairs.

“But Dad is not at home. Why are you going upstairs?”

“I need to get changed. I'm meeting Mrs. Lopez for tea!” Hazel replied from a distance before continuing, “She is

always bragging to me how good her daughter-in-law is as if she's the only one who has a daughter-in-law.”

Jacob was rendered speechless.

He could hardly believe that, after comparing their sons, they were even comparing their daughter-in-laws. Don't

they ever get tired of comparing?

Jacob suddenly remembered that he had something to speak to Wyatt about. After washing up and changing into a

fresh set of clothes, he set off for Lopez Group.

“Mr. Valentine,” the receptionist greeted Jacob before saying softly, “Mr. Lopez is in his office now, but he has been

in a bad mood these few days. Be careful not to provoke him.”

“All right. I got it.” Jacob waved his hand and strode into the elevator.

Some time back, Wyatt had a drastic change in personality. He was always gloomy and had stopped joining his

friends for drinks.

His temper had gotten worse ever since then, and no one dared to ask him out anymore.

In the elevator on the way up, Jacob recalled the day he brought Wyatt to meet the bosses of Stargrasp.

Back then, he had already noticed something amiss with Wyatt.

The next day, it was reported in the news that the bosses of Stargrasp had died in a car accident. Jacob had a

feeling that it wasn't purely an accident, and it could be related to Wyatt. However, those bosses had not offended

Lopez Group in any way.

For the sake of his own safety, for the first time, Jacob knocked on the door upon reaching the CEO's office.

“Come in!”

From the tone of the man's voice, Jacob could tell at once that he was not in the best of mood.

Bracing himself, Jacob opened the door and saw Wyatt sitting at his desk. The man was working on his laptop and

seemed to be very busy.

Carrying the things which he had brought along with him, Jacob walked toward Wyatt and said, “Wyatt, you're

working too hard. You're practically living in the office.”

Wyatt looked up.

When he saw Jacob, he frowned and said impatiently, “Stop coming here so frequently. I'm not free to drink with

you!”

“I'm not here for that. Why are you so angry?” Jacob placed the things on the desk cautiously and said, “We have

signed the contract, and I'm here to thank you.”

“Just leave the things here and get lost!” Wyatt went back to his work after saying that and ignored Jacob.

Jacob was at a loss for words.

He was really curious about what had happened to Wyatt that caused such a major change in him.

As Jacob had something to speak to Wyatt about, he did not leave even after being scolded. Instead, he sat down

quietly and did not even dare to breathe loudly.

After a while, Wyatt looked up and realized that Jacob was still around. Feeling a flicker of irritation, he said, “Didn't I

tell you to get lost?”

“You did. I'm getting lost soon.” Jacob scratched his nose awkwardly and set his ego aside before continuing, “I

have a favor to ask of you. You know Jeremy, right? Can you give me his contact?”

“What do you need it for?”

“I have heard of his abilities and want to get him to treat my girlfriend's eyes.”

“You have a girlfriend?” Wyatt asked, his eyes filled with disbelief. Taking a pause, he teased, “Was she chosen by

your mom?”

Jacob rolled his eyes and replied, “Oh heck! I'm not only rich and handsome, but I'm also a Samaritan. What's so

surprising about me having a girlfriend? I'm even going to have a kid soon! I will eat dog poop if I'm lying to you!”

Wyatt sneered, “You took advantage of the fact that she was blind and tricked her to be your girlfriend, right?”

“Am I that shameless?” Jacob snorted.

Besides, it was not he who caused her blindness. In addition to giving her a place to stay, he had also hired a helper

for her. Even he himself was impressed with his kindness.

Wyatt was bogged down with work and had no time to chat with Jacob. He scribbled down a string of numbers on a

piece of paper and threw it at Jacob. “Here's his number. Now, get lost and don't come back ever again!” the man

said, feeling frustrated.

“Why do you sound so annoyed?” Jacob said before continuing, “I thought we were buddies. You're the first one to

know about my girlfriend, but you didn't even bother to tell me that your wife is pregnant!”

Taking a pause, he carried on, “I will get you a baby hamper...”

Jacob continued to ramble on, unaware that he had stepped on Wyatt's toe. Provoked, Wyatt grabbed the wireless

mouse on his desk and hurled it at Jacob's face while yelling, “F*cking get lost right now!”

Thanks to his quick reflexes, Jacob managed to dodge to the side in time and avoided being hit.

However, he did not dare to stay any longer. He picked up the piece of paper with Jeremy's contact and left at

once.

Wyatt was a ball of pure anger as he remained alone in his office. Unable to contain his fury, he swept his laptop off

his desk. After calming down a little, he squatted down slowly and fixed his gaze on the patterns on the carpet.

It had already been two weeks. Apart from finding out that Jessica had been sent to Yartran by Rayna, his

investigation had reached a dead end.

Those people are trash! How is it possible that so many of them couldn't even find a woman!

Wyatt closed his eyes, and his mind was instantly filled with images of Jessica. Whenever he made her angry, she

would pound on his chest and bite him. She would also act cute from time to time.

“Wyatt, you're so dirty! You can't get into bed without showering!”

“Ow! Stop kissing me! Your stubble is hurting me. Are you a pig?”

When he thought about the woman's weak and thin body and her indifferent expression, he could not help but find

it ridiculous.

It's such a waste that that woman didn't become an actress!
