“Who said I’m going to have a baby for you? Don’t push your luck!”
“Let’s have one more, and I promise to take good care of you,”
Byron patiently said, holding her in his arms.
Cora struggled.
“Don’t even think about it. I only agreed to give you a chance, but I haven’t accepted you yet.”
“Haven’t you accepted me? Then why did you sleep with me? You little liar!”
Byron teased.
Cora was infuriated.
Who was the one cajoling and deceiving her into the car for two nights?
Who was the one to be deceived?
But she knew well of the way to irritate him and said with a smile,
“Yes, I’m a bad woman. I slept with you but won’t take responsibility. If you want a child, find someone else!”
Then she pushed Byron away and got out of the car without looking back.
What she didn’t expect was that the satisfied man behind her was calm as ever.
As she got out of the car, he followed and said,
“Then sleep with me more until you’re willing to be responsible for me.”
Upon reaching the sixth floor, Cora entered her apartment and locked the door promptly.
Byron was amused by her caution.
He sent her a message: [Have a good rest. I’ll pick you up at dusk.]
He planned to attend John’s birthday banquet with her.
Who knew if John organized this banquet to assist his grandson?
Although John and Jerry did do favor to Cora and Martin, it didn’t mean that Byron would willingly give up his wife and child to another man!
After sending the message, Byron drove away.
Of course, he didn’t forget to make a phone call to Carter, instructing,
“Give the doctor who worked on my rehabilitation 1.6
million dollars as a bonus.”
“Which doctor?”
Carter was a little bewildered by the sudden order.
“The one I fired before.”
“Oh, that’s Dr. Swift. Did Dr. Swift just save the world?”
If now, why would he be given 1.6 million dollars as a bonus out of nowhere?
“He didn’t save the world.”
He just complained about quitting smoking for baby preparation, which was a very happy thing, and he shouldn’t have been dismissed because of it, or to be more precisely, because of Byron’s emotions then.
So the 1.6 million dollars was the compensation for his unwarranted dismissal.
“That’s…”
Byron didn’t want to mention the baby preparation and quitting smoking, fearing it would trigger jealousy again when they prepared for a second child. He changed the subject and asked Carter,
“Are you free lately?”
“I’m busy! You’re not in the company, and I have to handle all the meetings.”
“Then why ask so many questions?”
Having shut down Carter’s gossiping thoughts with a concise question, Byron hung up the phone.
Meanwhile, Cora was taking a shower after returning home. She had planned to buy emergency contraceptive pills after waking up.
But then she received an urgent call and headed to the medical clinic to see patients.
Later, she completely forgot about the contraceptive pills…
In the evening, Byron went to pick up Cora as promised.
But was told by Sara,
“Cora and Martin left with Jerry earlier!”
Byron’s expression suddenly became very gloomy.
He clearly made an appointment with Cora to go to John’s birthday banquet together in the evening.
However, she caught their son and left with another man!
While he was furious, he unconsciously wondered if he really made her angry by bullying her for two consecutive nights.
Seeing Byron’s disappointed look, Sara also knew that he must feel horrible. Thus, she asked him,
“We were just about to go there. Why don’t you go with us?”
Byron nodded and followed them away.
Although he was sad, his wife and children were there.
Was he supposed to wait here alone till he got cheated on? Of course not.
Thus, Byron went to the birthday banquet with Sara and the others.
The birthday of John was held in the lobby of Lunar Hotel in Leucrest Town.
Almost all the wealthy and aristocratic families in Leucrest Town, whether they were invited or not, came with congratulatory gifts.
Although the Lloyd family only ranked sixth in the ranking of wealthy families in Leucrest Town, John was the master of Cora, who was rumored to have cured cancer.
With the escalation of the live broadcast of Cora and Jane’s medical competition to cure cancer, John’s medical clinic was also getting more and more attention from these wealthy families.
Thus, most of those who came to give gifts today wanted to make friends with John and then get acquainted with Cora. After all, everyone could get sick.
When Jerry brought Cora and Martin into the hall, he saw many people around John.
There were many people holding congratulatory gifts beside John, trying to persuade him to accept the gift.
“Why are there so many people today?”
Cora was taken aback by such a big scene.

John had also invited her to attend banquets of all sizes of the Lloyd family before, but she had never seen so many people.
“I heard from Grandpa that he didn’t invite many people.”
Jerry was also very puzzled. He had seen the list of invites, and it consisted of only those who had made good friends with the Lloyd family before.
However, looking at the people present today, everyone in the wealthy circle of Leucrest Town was probably here.
“Should I go?”
Cora noticed that there were a lot of girls tonight, so she thought that the Lloyd family might have brought those girls here as Jerry’s potential girlfriend. Thus, not wanting to obstruct Jerry’s future, she was about to leave with Martin.
But Jerry suddenly grabbed her hand tightly and brought her back to his side.
“Have you forgotten what you promised me before you came here today?”
Cora paused for a moment.
Today, before the two came to John’s birthday banquet together, Jerry went to the medical clinic to find Cora two hours earlier.
He dressed up for the occasion and wanted to take Cora to do styling and attend the birthday banquet together.
This was the first meeting between the two since they broke up in New York last time.
Jerry still chatted with Cora and was still extremely gentle and patient with her, as if nothing had happened.
But Cora could not accept it.
Under Flora’s influence, she hated this feeling of not cutting things off completely.
So, she broke up with Jerry again.
At that time, she said,
“Jerry, when I said I’m breaking up with you last time, I wasn’t joking. I really don’t plan to be together with you anymore.”
Jerry tried to intercede.
“Cora, what do you not like about me? Just tell me, and I’ll change right away.”
“It’s not you. It’s me. There’s someone else in my heart. I can’t love you anymore!”
Cora lowered her head, not daring to face Jerry’s disappointed eyes.
However, she did not know that the action of her lowering her head made her collar slip a little accidentally, allowing Jerry to see the hickey on her collarbone…
At that moment, Jerry felt as if his heart had sunk into the bottomless deep sea and kept falling.
“So you started over with him?”
Although he already knew the answer, he still asked Cora.
As long as she said that she was not with him, even if she lied to him, he would still choose to believe her.
But Cora said,
“Yes, we are together again.”
In an instant, Jerry felt as if his heart was sliced open.
