From His Wife to His Uncle's Wife novel Chapter 349

“But you’re not really going to let Jessie Goff just stay in the Goff family, are you?”

Max gave a sly grin. “Of course not.”

Eleanor couldn’t help but laugh at the thought. “Uncle, Grandma, I’m not going to be soft-hearted with her. You can call me cold if you want, but I’m done playing the saint.”

Paola’s voice was steady and warm. “Sweetheart, we’d never blame you. After everything you’ve gone through, you deserve to fight for yourself.”

Meanwhile, Jessie Goff was living the high life at home. Peter Clarkson was attentive, always making sure she was comfortable, especially now that she was pregnant. Even when her father was angry with her, he couldn’t really do anything about it. Jessie felt safe with Peter Clarkson in her corner.

And honestly, Otto wasn’t even her biological father. If the company went under, then so be it. If the truth ever came out, Jessie wouldn’t have a meltdown over Eleanor taking back what was hers.

“Mom, can you have the maid bring me some sliced oranges?” Jessie asked. “The doctor said I need more vitamins.”

Autumn didn’t get upset at the way Jessie ordered her around. She just quietly brought a plate of fruit over herself, setting it gently next to Jessie.

When Olga heard that Mommy Jessie was pregnant, she panicked. She was terrified of losing her mom’s love. “Mommy Jessie, will you play blocks with me?”

Jessie didn’t even try to fake patience. “Olga, why are you being so clingy? Mommy’s having a new baby now. I’m not going to be just your mommy anymore. You need to learn to play by yourself, okay?”

Olga looked up at her, confused and hurt. “Why? Mommy Jessie, you didn’t act like this before.”

Jessie let out a little laugh. “I’m busy right now. When your baby brother is born, I’ll play with you again. You’ll have to look after him too, understand?”
