CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1529

“You're the patient, and I'm the doctor. Taking care of you is my job,” Jay said with a light smile, handing her the utensils.

“Go ahead, try it.”

Jamie was indeed hungry. She hadn’t felt like eating, but she couldn’t refuse his gesture. Besides, she needed to regain her strength quickly if she hoped to find Charlie. She picked up the utensils and was just about to take a bite when footsteps sounded outside the room.

The door swung open, revealing Ben. His expression darkened instantly, his face stormy as he took in the scene before him.

“So, Dr. Lawson, is this how you treat all your patients, or is this a special case?” Ben’s tone dripped with sarcasm.

“Just giving an old classmate some extra care. What’s the harm in that?” Jay replied, his words laced with subtle defiance.

The room's atmosphere froze, tension thick in the air. Ben’s sharp gaze flickered between Jamie and Jay before finally settling on Jamie’s pale face, his expression unreadable.

Jamie, sensing the weight of the situation, froze mid-motion, her utensils suspended in the air.

“Mr. Lucas,” she greeted cautiously.

Ben let out a cold laugh, his tone carrying a mocking edge. “Before you passed out, you begged me with tears in your eyes to save your son. I actually believed you cared. But here you are, reconnecting with old flames, throwing your child to the wind?”

Jamie’s face paled even further.

Charlie was the most precious thing in her life, her deepest vulnerability. Her heart tightened, and a sharp pain radiated from her wound.

Jay noticed her discomfort immediately and stepped forward to steady her. “Jamie, your wound hasn’t healed. You shouldn’t get upset. Let’s talk things through calmly.”

Jamie bit her lip hard, forcing herself to stay composed. “I’m fine,” she said through gritted teeth.

Ben, seeing Jay’s calm concern, felt his fury bubble dangerously close to the surface. His voice dropped, low and threatening.
