My ex-husband is in love with me (FULL)
Chapter 735 All of Us Need to be Good to Ourselves

"I'm afraid that I can't. The baby is too small." Maisie said with some kind of regret

In fact, she had planned to attend Nina's wedding. She missed Emelia's wedding, so she really wanted to witness the happiest moment for Nina, and also that of Jean.

She was known for not-liking going to parties with the rich people, and she even felt a little inferior by being friends with the daughters of famous families. Emelia and others were the only good friends she had known for so many years, and she cherished them very much.

The baby was just an excuse. She didn't have to take the baby with her. She could just go back home early.

She had heard from David that Ezra was going to be engaged to the daughter of the Marshall family, so she thought it was better not to show up at that time. Although she was not distracted by him anymore, she was afraid that the Cantillo family and Erika would think that she was up to something.

So she finally decided not to attend. She thought it was better for them to meet in private in the future.

Although Maisie used the excuse of her child, Jean could guess the reason why she didn't want to go. She supported her decision and said, "It was better this way. From now on, you and your baby could just live a peaceful life here."

Maisie sighed, "Yes, I'm very satisfied with the current life I have. I'm content."

After saying that, she took hold of Maisie's hand and said, "Maisie, we need to be good to ourselves."

Jean nodded, "Well, whether we have love or not, the first thing we love is ourselves."

As soon as she finished her words, she received a call from Nina.

"Honey, I heard that you moved to the confinement center today. Is that true? How are you right now?"

"I'm fine now." she answered with a smile, "One good thing about natural labor is a faster recovery speed. I just need to have a good rest."

Now that Nina had called, Maisie just told her that she wouldn't attend her wedding. Nina smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. We will visit you after the wedding, and have a look at your baby boy."

"If you come to the wedding, who would take care of the baby? You know how I miss him more than I miss you!" Both Maisie and Jean were amused by her words. They had to admit that she was really good a jokes.

The three of them chatted for a while on the phone. Then, Maisie turned on the video and Nina watched the sleeping little baby. She sighed, "So cute! I bet he would grow up to be prince charming and many girls would go crazy for him"

"When are you going to have your own? I can't imagine how cute your kid will be."

"I don't want her to be cute. I just want her to be smart enough to not fall into the traps of men." She was joking and they all laughed out. The conversation between the three women ended in a pleasant atmosphere.

Maisie was tired and lay down to have a rest.

Jean got a call. She walked out of the room and answered it.

"When will you come back?" asked Arthur on the phone

Jean frowned and asked, "You haven't left yet?"

Arthur was speechless.

So, she was playing hard to get again?

When she was still working in the hospital, they had a wonderful night together. But on the second day, she turned against them and said that they were both adults and should be more open-minded about this kind of thing.

The implication was that she just had sex with him for one night. It was just physical entanglement and had nothing to do with love!

He was so angry that she said that so he paid back with more hurtful remarks.

Now he was in such a situation again

But how could he be angry now? How dare she say something unpleasant?

He swore that he would never say anything harsh to her again. With her resolute look now, even if he did everything she wanted him to do, he would still not be forgiven.

So he replied as if nothing had happened, "I'm on annual leave these days."

He meant that he would stay in the city for the next few days. In short, he would pester her all the time.

This was out of her expectation. She left for the hospital without saying goodbye. She thought he would be sensible and leave by himself, but she didn't expect that he was so stubborn.

The annual leave was just an excuse. It seemed that he had already prepared to pester her.

Jean took a deep breath and replied calmly, "Well, I don't go back at night because I need to take care of Maisie in the Hospital."

"Didn't she move to the confinement center today? I bet a team of experts is looking after her right now. Why are you needed for the night shift?" he exposed her lie.

The high-end confinement center was different from the hospital. The new mother didn't need to worry about anything. The baby was taken care of by a specialist, and everything was taken good care of. After all, he was the heir of the family hospital. How could he not know these things?

Jean didn't expect that Arthur could be so calm this time. He even dared to expose the loopholes in her speech.

Of course, she did not plan to give in so quickly. "I don't need to but I want to because we are good friends."

Arthur didn't say a word.

He could feel her attitude. She didn't plan to make up with him.

"Then I'll wait for you to come back tomorrow." After a while, he said to her.

Jean didn't want to pretend anymore. She said straightforwardly, "Arthur, that's the room I booked. If you want to stay, please book your own room. Does it feel good to take over my place?" Arthur said immediately," So as long as I book a new room, I can stay with you?"

Jean was almost choked by his words.

She hung up the phone and decided not to talk to him anymore.

In fact, she didn't need to stay at night. It was already time for rest, Jean was still here, so Maisie knew why.

She asked Jean softly, "He's left?"

Seeing that Maisie had known what was in her mind, Jean didn't hide anything. "No, he said he was taking annual leave recently."

She understood what was going on.

She was with her. So she said, "if you don't want to go back to see him, you can stay here with me."

"Besides, I asked David to leave today. Since you don't want to meet Arthur, why don't you leave tomorrow? As you can see, I can take care of myself now."

"Besides, you are very busy with your work."

"I really want to come here to see you for a few more days, but..." Jean was so annoyed by that man

The only thought in her mind now was to avoid seeing him, so she agreed with Maisie, "In that case, I'll go back tomorrow."

So the next morning, after saying goodbye to Maisie, Jean went back to her hotel quietly, packed her luggage, and went straight to the airport.

In order to show that he had listened to her words, Arthur specially told her that he had booked a new room, which was next to hers. When Jean went back to pack her luggage, she tiptoed and tried her best to keep quiet for fear of waking him up.
