The Wrong Woman

Chapter 1073

Imogen always seemed out of place.

After the gathering, Jasper drove Imogen home.

In the car, Jasper asked with concern, "Are you tired?"

Imogen closed her eyes and replied, "Yeah, a little bit."

"When we get home, I'll give you a foot bath and a massage."Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Imogen immediately perked up. She nervously said, "It's okay. You're tired too, so you don't have to take care of me."

Jasper gave a genuine smile. He said, "Alright then, you can give me a foot bath and a massage too."

Imogen was taken aback.

Jasper looked at her shocked expression and asked, "You don't want me to take care of you, and now you don't want to take care of me either?"

Imogen mumbled, "I'm just worried you'll be too tired."

"I'm not tired."

Imogen sighed lightly. She resigned as she said, "Okay. You should give me a massage when we get home."

Jasper smiled knowingly then replied, "Alright."

"You really—" Imogen couldn't finish her sentence.

Jasper chuckled before changing the subject. He said, "My family really likes you."

Imogen lowered her head and sighed. She said, "Yeah, I can tell. It's not because I'm an outstanding person, but because they are all good people."

Jasper fell silent. As he was contemplating something important, the atmosphere in the car became heavy.

After a long while, he slowly asked, "Imogen, should we have a child together?"

Imogen was stunned, gripping her skirt tightly. She felt both excited and nervous, not knowing how to respond to his question.

As she stayed silent, Jasper continued, "Having a child will give you a stronger sense of belonging, and it will strengthen our marriage." Imogen didn't like his mindset.

Her career at Star Enterprise was just taking off, and she wanted to prove herself at work. She didn't want a child to tie her down so soon.

A child should be a symbol of their love, not a tool to make the marriage more secure.

It shouldn't be like this.

Imogen firmly rejected, "I don't want to get pregnant so soon."

Jasper continued to persuade her, "Imogen, will hire the best nutritionist and fitness trainer to take care of you, ensuring you maintain your figure without any burden.

"We can have a painless delivery, and the best postpartum care team will look after you and our baby. I won't let you suffer at all..."

Imogen wasn't afraid of suffering or losing her figure, nor did she doubt his ability to provide the best care. She just didn't want to have a child right now.

Imogen reiterated, "Jasper, I don't want a child."

Jasper was taken aback. He asked, "Why?"

Imogen asked, "If I couldn't have children, would you still stay with me?"

Jasper answered without hesitation, "Of course."

Imogen said in displeasure, "Then why are you pushing me to have a child?"

Jasper gripped the steering wheel tightly as he said nervously, "I'm not pushing you. I'm just discussing it with you. I—"

Imogen cut him off. "I don't want to have a child right now."

With a gloomy expression, Jasper fell silent.

They were both quiet throughout the journey.

When they arrived at the villa, Jasper parked the car at the entrance.

As Imogen unfastened her seatbelt, Jasper asked in a calm tone, "Are you still thinking about divorcing me?"

Imogen's breath hitched, and her

heart sank. She turned to look at him

and said angrily, "No, I'm not! I just don't want to have a child right now. We've only been married for a short time and we're still getting to know each other."

Jasper unfastened his seatbelt before turning to look at her. He asked in a serious tone, "When will you be willing to have a child?"
