Chapter 231: Jealous..

Jessica felt the air in her lungs knock out abruptly. "Move in?" she echoed, doubt lacing her words. She wasn’t sure she had heard him right—or perhaps, she didn’t want to believe she had.

"Why move in? Aren’t we going back to Country Y soon?" she asked, confusion etching her features as she stared at Davis, searching his eyes for any sign of hesitation.

Davis took a deep breath, choosing his words carefully. "The hotel isn’t comfortable enough for you. It’s a bit too restrictive. Even though we have a full suite with bedrooms, sitting room, and a lounge, it still doesn’t offer the ease you need right now."

There was guilt in his voice. Deep down, he blamed himself for allowing her to stay in the hotel for so long. He had read several articles recently about pregnancy—the need for comfort, consistent rest, proper nutrition, and emotional stability.

Judging by her symptoms, Jessica had likely been pregnant even before their arrival in Noveria. Unknowingly, he had let her endure discomfort.

He felt guilt, and he hoped he could make it up to her even in the smallest possible way.

Jessica furrowed her brows. "What makes you think the suite is uncomfortable? We’ve been there for a while now, and I’ve never complained. Besides, our departure is just around the corner."

"I know," Davis replied, his tone patient but firm, "but that doesn’t mean we won’t return to this city again in the future for business trips or vacation depending on the situation of the moment. So why not have a proper home for ourselves whenever we visit?"

Jessica sighed. She could see right through him. It was an excuse—albeit a thoughtful one. Davis wasn’t just doing this for convenience. He was doing it because he cared. Because her well-being and the baby’s comfort now meant everything to him.

"You’re saying Ethan should bring our luggage over?" she asked, eyeing him skeptically.

Davis nodded. "Exactly."

Jessica shook her head. "Why don’t we go back to the hotel and put a few things in order first? Then we’ll bring them over ourselves."
