Chapter 1513 Matchmaking
After saying that, Tessa turned to leave.
On the way back to the restaurant, she couldn't help thinking that something was strange. The more she thought about it, the more she realized that things did not add up.
When Mona first arrived at Southend, she did not show any symptoms of having trouble acclimatizing from her travels.
Wait a minute... Tessa abruptly stopped in her tracks. Mona's reaction earlier is similar to the morning sickness I experienced during my previous pregnancy. Could it be...
Her expression changed slightly at the thought, then she hastily returned to Mona's room and knocked on the door.
It did not take long before the door opened. Mona seemed surprised to see Tessa standing outside the door.
"What's wrong?" She glanced at Tessa quizzically.
Tessa did not respond immediately, choosing instead to enter the room with Mona in tow.
When they were securely inside the room, she settled Mona on the couch and questioned sternly, "Mona, tell me honestly. Are you pregnant?"
Mona's expression stiffened at the question.
Seeing the change in Mona's expression, Tessa immediately understood the situation.
She pressed onward, "Is Edward the father?"
The question made Mona stiffen in shock. She stared at Tessa in astonishment. "How did you know?"
"That's because Edward asked me about you a few days ago." Tessa did not conceal the truth and provided an analysis of the situation back then. "Although he said nothing at the time, based on my understanding of his character, he would not ask about somebody for no reason. Something must have happened."
Mona fell silent, not knowing what to say. After some time, she finally pursed her lips and admitted the truth. "You're right. It's his child."
"So, he took advantage of you that night?" Tessa's expression became grim and stern.
Although she did not believe Edward was that kind of person, she couldn't help assuming the worst due to the situation before her.
Knowing that her best friend was misunderstanding the situation, Mona quickly shook her head and denied those accusations. "He did not take advantage of me. It was me... In any case, it was an accident."
Tessa could tell that her best friend was not willing to talk about the incident, so she did not ask for more information.
