Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom
Chapter 154

154 What happened (2)

As the baby bump grew, Jeslyn came to love the child. She would take pictures, order anything she sees online that is for babies and save them all in the beautiful room she made for the child,

The room was pink because the scan told her she was pregnant with a girl, so she bought girly things. The room was filled with stuffed items, toys, and all.

Jeslyn's consciousness couldn't believe what she was seeing. She got pregnant at 18 and kept the baby? So what happened?!

Jeslyn saw herself being wheeled into the labor room where her screams filled the whole room as the doctors kept telling her to push out the baby.

Jeslyn's consciousness was feeling the emotions her teenage self was feeling and she curled herself up in a corner of the room due to the excruciating pain.

After some hours of hard work, the baby finally came out. However, Jeslyn was too weak and couldn't hold her baby.

Ms. Alice who had been by Jeslyn's side all these while carried the baby as tears welled up in her eyes. She kissed the child's forehead even though there was still blood on the baby.

"M- mother, my... my child," teenage Jeslyn slowly raised her hands, likewise her consciousness. They both wanted to carry the new baby. Their hearts were filled with happiness and love for the new baby that still hasn't cried since it came out.

However, before teenage Jeslyn's hands could be fully raised, they fell limp to the side and her eyes lost their shine. She fell into a dead faint.

At the same time, her consciousness also depicted.

"My child! My baby! Let me see my baby!"

Jeslyn slowly opened her eyes but they were clouded by heavy tears. Trying to seat up, she realized she was in Maverick's embrace. The side of her face was on his chest and his disheveled robe was open. Her hands were fisting his robe tightly as veins could be seen on the back of her hand. It was obvious she caused the state his cloak was in.

"Ma...hic hic..."

"It's ok, take it easy, you are awake now."

His calming voice and the sense of security that this man gave her made her tears fall even more. "My baby... hic hic!"

Maverick's eyes widened slightly. But this wasn't the time to ask her anything. She has to calm down first.

He started to rub her back to calm her down but the more he tried to soothe her, the more she cried harder.

"She must be cute... hic hic... I didn't didn't get to see my child... Maverick, where did my child go?! I gave birth... hic hic... to a beautiful daughter!"

Seeing how she was breaking down really hard, Maverick knew that at this rate, she might be going into depression. Even though she wasn't sure that the dream was real, provided it had a believable story, Jeslyn's consciousness would take it as the truth and also, it seems the dream really hit Jeslyn

hard this time.

Jeslyn cried really badly until Maverick shut her up with kisses.

It was midnight, but he still took her out of the house to walk around the island for her mood to calm down. After she got a biting cold assaulting her skin, they returned to the house but rather sat in the living room instead of going to the bedroom.

"How are you feeling?" He asked.

Jeslyn placed her head on his lap as she watched the burning fireplace. "My heart hurts."

"What happened?"

"I got pregnant for that person and..."

П

And then?"

"I loved the child so much that I could die for her..."

"A girl?"

Jeslyn nodded; "the scan said it's a girl,"

Maverick shut his eyes tightly as memories flashed through his mind.

After he woke up, the lady he met by his side was Vera. She was shivering and crying.

Her body was filled with hickeys and there was blood on the white sheet. She was pure!

Maverick decided he'd take responsibility but before he left the hotel, he asked her to repeat those words she said but she denied having memories of them.

The stupid plan to have him lose his innocence was made by Matt and Fin. Rex was in on it, so he punished Rex by bankrupting the hotel and demolishing it to the ground.

As for Matt and Fin, he gave them the silent treatment for years.

Later after investigating Vera, he realized the girl had 80% similarities to little Rossa, but she seemed not to remember most of her childhood. However, her information was the same as Rossa's. Except that she doesn't remember the island.

When he went to take responsibility like he had promised, he found out that Rossa was pregnant with his child. He took her in and gave her everything she deserved as his woman.

The first time he had his way with her in his mansion, Maverick realized she was different from the girl of that night but because the girl was also heavily drugged, he believed that was why she was that good. However, Vera couldn't make him reach climax the day he slept with her in his mansion. So for that, he didn't touch her anymore until she gave birth and disappeared.

On the day Vera gave birth, Maverick was fighting for his territory while Rex was out of the Country.

She was not supposed to give birth on that day. Her birth date was supposed to be a month from that day.

Vera sought permission to go to Country Y and he allowed her. To his dismay, he received a call from Country Y that Vera had given birth and left the hospital.

Maverick did a DNA test with Valen through Matt and discovered the paternity test result was 99.9%. No doubt, Valen was his son. 4

Presently, Maverick had lulled Jeslyn to sleep by making her sleep on his chest with his hands and blanket wrapped around her. After a while, he took her to the room and made her sleep on the bed but the minute he wanted to leave, she grabbed his hand and slightly opened her swollen eyes. "Please, don't go."
