CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1467

They had only been apart for four years, and the child was already over three. If the child were his, Jamie wouldn’t be so hesitant to speak up. Maybe, just maybe, she had left him back then because she was already carrying someone else’s child.

“So who is the father?” Ben pressed, his tone cold. “Was it the guy you were just flirting with, or someone else?”

Jamie couldn’t answer. She remained silent.

Ben’s patience was wearing thin. “If you care so much about your son and don’t want him to see his mother humiliated, then just tell me the truth! Why are you so unwilling?”

Could it be that the father’s identity was truly shameful? Was she involved with a married man?

As he continued to speculate, Charlie, lying in bed, spoke up, “Mom, Uncle, what are you talking about?”

“Oh, nothing, honey. This is just a friend of mine, and we’re talking about work,” Jamie replied with a forced smile, trying to keep things light for her son. Charlie had enough struggles with his illness—he didn’t need to bear her troubles too.

“Work, huh?” Ben’s gaze turned sharper. “No wonder you don’t know who the child’s father is. Seems like you conceived him while ‘working.’”

Jamie could hear the venom in his words. If this had been in the past, Ben wouldn’t have dreamed of speaking to her like this. He had once been so tender, even worrying about small things like an oil splash from cooking. But there was no going back now.

“Mom, does that mean this uncle is your coworker?” Charlie asked, only able to grasp the simplest meaning from their exchange.
