Dear Sweetheart novel

Chapter 541

Growing even more terrified, Jessica explained in a panic, “H-He didn’t touch me. All he did was steady me when I nearly fell that time. The only person I’ve slept with is you. I’m not dirty.”

It made Wyatt’s heart ache to see her like that. “I know. I’m not saying that in a disdainful way. What I mean is you’ve been sweating and need to take a bath.”

After hearing that, she finally loosened her grip.

Nonetheless, her body was still tense as she leaned back inside the bathtub.

He was very patient as he helped her wash up, occasionally sliding his fingers over the gentle swell of her belly. The knowledge that inside her belly was his child warmed the cockles of his heart.

When she sat up and turned her back toward him, he saw several scars running across her back.

It was as though someone had whipped her until she bled and her wounds left untreated for some time, thus leaving behind those marks.

The scars were shocking to behold, and rage rose within Wyatt at the sight of them. Lightly brushing his fingers over them, he asked Jessica, “Why are there injuries on your back? Who hit you?”

She shook her head and answered softly, “It’s nothing. I accidentally fell.”

“Would a fall cause welts? Do you think I’m blind?” he responded with a dry laugh.

Jessica was silent.

Seeing that she lowered her head and was reluctant to tell him the truth, he did not press further, fearing he would lose his temper and startle her.

After the bath, he wrapped a bathrobe around her and carried her out.

The moment her body touched the bed, she fumbled to sit up and untie the bathrobe.

Wyatt’s eyebrows twitched in annoyance.

Ever since she got back, everything she does keeps pushing my buttons. I hate seeing her so timid and lacking self-assurance!

Tamping down his anger, he helped her change into her nightgown. Then, he tucked her under the covers. “Go to sleep.”

She blinked, a little confused. “Aren’t you sleeping?”

“No.”
