CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1628

Jamie froze.

Though she didn’t meet his gaze, she could feel Ben’s emotions lingering in the air. Her resolve wavered, but that unspoken thorn in her heart held her back. She stayed silent, even as Ben got up and left.

After that, things between them shifted, the atmosphere growing subtly tense.

Even their assistant couldn’t help but notice.

“Miss Lewis, is something going on with you and Mr. Lucas? You both seem...off,” he ventured cautiously.

Jamie glanced at Ben, who was engrossed in a stack of documents, and quickly looked away. “Nothing at all. We’re just focusing on work,” she replied lightly.

The assistant didn’t buy it, but lacking proof, he had no choice but to drop the matter.

“Do you play golf?” Ben’s voice broke the silence suddenly.

Jamie blinked, startled by the question. “A little, but I often miss or send the ball flying,” she admitted honestly.

Ben’s lips twitched slightly, suppressing a smile. Sending the ball flying? That wasn’t “a little.”

“No matter. Tomorrow, we’ll spend the day at the golf course. I’ll teach you.” His tone was calm, as though this was just another item on the agenda.

Jamie nodded, a faint sense of anticipation bubbling up within her. She didn’t even realize how much she was looking forward to it.

At the golf course, Jamie had tried several swings, but none of her shots were hitting the mark.

Ben stood nearby, watching with a slight frown. He hadn't planned to intervene, but as Jamie's balls flew further off course with each attempt, he couldn't hold back any longer.

With a gentle tap on her knee, he said, “You’re holding the club wrong. Your stance is off too. You need to put power into your lower body, or the ball will keep veering off course.”
