CHAPTER 883: CHAPTER 883: FIRST ARGUMENT AFTER MAKING UP

Jasper Sinclair was provoked and spoke in a harsh tone: "Why didn’t you call me when something happened? Is he your man, or am I?"

He didn’t know that Vincent Morgan and Nora Northwood attended the same academic forum.

His jealousy was indeed strong.

In Nora Northwood’s eyes, he seemed completely unreasonable.

So, she simply ignored him.

Nora managed to sit up from the hospital bed with difficulty and softly said to Vincent, "Morgan, thank you for calling the ambulance for me today. Let’s have dinner sometime, okay?"

Her gratitude subtly hinted at asking him to leave.

Such an occasion was indeed not suitable for Vincent Morgan to stay for long, so he replied, "Sure."

The difference in tone was so pronounced that it made Jasper Sinclair’s expression even colder.

He recalled last night when Nora rejected his touch, then asked with a stern face, "Nora, do you regret getting back together with me?"

"Shut up."

Nora was preoccupied with the doctor’s instructions and didn’t want to talk to Jasper Sinclair right now, leaving him momentarily ignored.

Perhaps due to feeling down, her lower abdomen began to ache in waves.

The pain made her clench her teeth, and at some point, a fine layer of sweat had already formed on her forehead.

Jasper Sinclair, caught up in his anger, didn’t notice anything wrong with her.

The doctor said Nora’s physical condition was average, so she shouldn’t undergo high-intensity work, and her diet needed caution.

She had been malnourished since childhood, and after getting married, she had undergone some recuperation, but frequently working overtime took a toll even on a good body.

The baby in her belly was already three weeks old.

Nora planned to inform Jasper Sinclair about her pregnancy today, but he inexplicably threw a fit.

Out of spite, she didn’t tell.

...

Jasper Sinclair only found out about Nora’s pregnancy because of a nurse.

During rounds, the nurse told her, "The result of the ultrasound will be synced to your electronic file, and you need to quickly process your maternity handbook."

Hearing this, Jasper Sinclair was almost petrified.

Ultrasound?

Maternity handbook?

He stared blankly at Nora.

Nora had never seen such a dazed man and deliberately snorted.

Jasper Sinclair snapped back to reality, excitedly gripping her shoulders, and asked, "Nora, you, you... you’re pregnant, aren’t you? With my child, right?"

He was incoherent.

Nora’s shoulders hurt under his grip, and she said proudly, "Let go, you’re hurting me!"

No sooner than she uttered the word ’pain’ did Jasper Sinclair immediately release his grip, looking unsure of where to place his hands and feet.

Nora continued, "Who else’s child could it be other than yours!"

"Yes, I’m sorry, I was just too excited."

Jasper Sinclair’s happiness was evident.

His usual calm and stern demeanor vanished completely, as if he was a young man again.

Nora pouted, bratty as ever.

"Weren’t you sulking and ignoring me?"

As she spoke, she felt a bit wronged, and her eyes welled with tears.

Jasper Sinclair felt a tight knot in his heart, apologizing repeatedly, "It’s all my fault. I didn’t take care of your feelings."

As a high-ranking authority figure, he had apologized three times within an hour.

Seeing his helpless state, Nora stopped teasing him.
