CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1680

Ben met Attorney Freeman’s provocation with cool composure, glancing back at him with a faint smile. “Feel free to file a complaint against me. I’ll countersue for defamation, and we can settle it properly in court. How about that?”

Attorney Freeman’s smirk faltered, and he shrugged nonchalantly. “Forget it. I’m not looking for trouble. Everyone knows you’re not someone to cross. Besides, I never explicitly said there was favoritism.”

Ben let out a faint chuckle. “If you’re not interested in facing me in court, then let’s leave it to the competition. When the time comes, we’ll see who comes out on top.”

Freeman raised a brow. “You’ve got that much faith in Jamie?”

“Absolutely,” Ben replied firmly.

Meanwhile, onstage, the host announced the advancing contestants, and Jamie’s name was among them. Relief and excitement washed over her as she stepped off the stage, her heart brimming with satisfaction.

Ben stood waiting, taking a bouquet of flowers from his assistant and presenting it to her with a warm smile. “Congratulations on advancing.”

Jamie accepted the flowers, taking a moment to inhale their sweet fragrance. “These are my favorite. You planned this in advance, didn’t you?”

“Of course,” Ben replied with a twinkle in his eye.

Jamie looked up at him with a grin. “And what made you so sure I’d win?”

“I just knew,” Ben said confidently. “You have the talent and determination to go all the way.”

Her heart swelled at his unwavering belief in her, but she kept her tone light. “Well, I’ll give it my best. I don’t want to let you or anyone else down.”

Ben pulled her into a quick embrace, his voice soft in her ear. “No matter the outcome, you’re already amazing.”

Jamie felt a wave of warmth and security, but after a moment, she gently stepped back, suddenly aware of the surrounding crowd. Her cheeks flushed as she looked around.
