CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1573

“Do you think the person we saw earlier was Winnie?” Jamie gripped his arm tightly. “I have to go back and check. The fire was so intense. What if she didn’t make it out?”

Even imagining it made her feel like she couldn’t breathe.

Her sister had died in a fire.

What if Winnie was still alive but ended up perishing in the flames because of her negligence? How could Jamie ever forgive herself?

“Jamie, don’t go back. The police have already sealed off the area,” Ben said, stepping in to stop her.

“But if that was Winnie…”

“You said it yourself. You’re not certain. So why risk your life for a possibility? Have you thought about what would happen to Charlie if something happened to you?”

There was another thought Ben didn’t voice. “What would happen to me if you were gone?” he muttered to himself.

Jamie stared at him, tears streaming down her face.

Heart aching, Ben pulled her into his arms. “I’ll have my assistant help you look into it. Let’s go home first.”

Hearing the words “go home”, Jamie felt a fleeting warmth in her heart, even though she had been resisting the idea moments earlier.

“Okay,” she murmured.

What Jamie didn’t notice was a van parked not far from the villa.

Inside, a woman dressed in a sleek black dress sat with long, wavy hair cascading down her shoulders. Her face was striking and icy, like a rose blooming in the night.

If Jamie had seen her, she would have been utterly shocked.

Because this woman was none other than Winnie, the person she had been searching for.

But Winnie was no longer the same as before.

“You deliberately let her go,” a man sneered from the driver’s seat.

Winnie flinched and quickly denied it. “I didn’t!”

“Don’t bother pretending. I saw everything. Who would’ve thought that after coming back from the dead, you’d still be soft-hearted toward your sister? Is that what they call blood ties?”

“I didn’t let her go.” Winnie’s voice wavered.

The man chuckled, clearly indifferent to her protests. “Say what you want. But the fact remains that you didn’t complete the task I gave you. That means no antidote for you this month.”

“You can’t do this! You promised me!” Winnie’s pupils contracted in panic as she leaned forward, grabbing at the man in desperation.
