CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1902

Caleb couldn’t bring himself to violate his professional ethics, let alone lead by example in doing so.

“There’s no need for any agreements,” Caleb said firmly. “I don’t intend to turn this into a transactional relationship. You’re still young, and you can take your time dealing with your debts.”

With that, Caleb turned to leave.

But Vera continued to follow him. “There’s no time to take it slow. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here in front of you. Uncle Smith and my dad were the best of friends, but under the current circumstances, whatever help he can offer is barely a drop in the bucket. However, if I follow Uncle Smith’s advice and win you over, everything will be different.”

Caleb’s father wanted him to settle down, marry, and have a family. If Vera became his wife, it would naturally secure her father’s support and resources.

“I don’t even have money to go home…” Vera murmured from behind him.

Her voice was so soft, it was barely audible, but Caleb heard her clearly.

He couldn’t help but laugh. “No money? Then how did you get here? And from the looks of it, are you planning to cling to me now?”

Vera’s face flushed with embarrassment. “Your father told me where you were and arranged for someone to bring me here. He gave me some money when I left, but… I paid it back.”

Her voice faltered at the end.

It was humiliating to admit. She had never been this down-and-out before. But to avoid being kicked out or left behind, she had no choice but to be honest.

Caleb frowned. “You didn’t keep any for yourself? Do you expect me to send you back now? Actually, looking at your situation, do you even have a place to stay?”
