CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1645

The assistant had barely picked up the phone when a strange expression crossed his face. “Mr. Lucas, this call seems to be for you.”

The receptionist had called to say that someone was specifically asking to see Ben Lucas.

Ben frowned.

This wasn’t the kind of person he would waste his time meeting. If he entertained every random person who claimed they wanted to see him, his days would be endless.

But just as he was about to decline, the assistant slowly added, “She says her name is Winnie Lewis.”

Ben’s sharp eyes narrowed as a glimmer of light flickered across them. “Let her up.”

The assistant nodded and made the arrangements. Ben immediately headed to the lounge to wait.

Before long, the door opened, and a woman stepped inside.

Ben’s gaze landed on her face, and for a moment, surprise flickered in his eyes. “Your face…”

From her build, she was unmistakably Winnie. Her facial features were strikingly similar too, yet something about her was vastly different.

It was her aura.

The Winnie he used to know would never have carried herself with such a sharp, cutting presence. At first glance, she gave off the impression of a sword unsheathed, gleaming with a dangerous edge.

Winnie sat down on one side of the room.

The closer he looked, the more obvious her transformation became. Her collarbones jutted out, her shoulder blades were more defined, and she had grown noticeably thinner. Even her demeanor had sharpened, and paired with her black dress, she resembled a black rose blooming fiercely in the night.

“It’s been a long time. I didn’t expect you to still remember me,” Winnie said, her tone complicated.

That was as good as admitting that Ben had guessed her identity correctly.

Ben’s tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and he exhaled a deep breath. “It really is you.”

Winnie nodded. “Yes, it’s me. As for why I look so different now, it’s because I was severely burned back then. Seventy percent of my skin tissue was replaced.”
