CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1387

Quincy was wide awake, going over the investigation report he had finally gotten his hands on, page by page under his desk lamp. By the time he finished, he was at a loss for words.

The surgery had been a lie, but the illness was real. His mother was indeed in the early stages of lung cancer, and with her weak heart, treating both conditions would be incredibly difficult. Yet, even now, rather than focusing on her health, she was fixated on pushing him to leave Lydia.

He decided he would have to talk to her about it in the morning. Just as he was about to go to bed, he picked up his phone to check the time and saw a message from Eugene that felt like a slap in the face. The smug text announced Eugene’s engagement to Lydia, complete with screenshots of congratulatory comments flooding social media.

Quincy felt as though every drop of blood had stopped cold in his veins.

Eugene and Lydia, getting married?

It was all over the trending news, so it had to be true. But was this Lydia’s choice, or her parents’ doing? It was probably hers. Her parents respected her decisions so they wouldn’t force her into marriage. Only his family would stoop to that.

Quincy couldn’t bear the thought of disrupting Lydia’s life. If she was moving on, he would have to let her go, even if it tore him apart.

Before going to bed, he typed out an email to Lydia. At the end, he wrote, “I’ll never forget that night at the bar, you holding onto me, calling my name. Lydia, if you really hate me, just delete this email. I won’t reach out again. But if you ever need me, I’ll be here.”

Quincy knew Lydia rarely checked her email. By the time she found it, it might be too late or maybe, she would never read it at all.
