Jared fell silent.
He rubbed his temples with one hand, "Forget it. Just let it go."
She didn't know who she asked to do it! Could he still force her to take out the bag?
"I'm sorry, Jared. I made trouble again." Makenna bit her lip in remorse, and said with red eyes.
Seeing her like this, Jared tried to soften his voice, "It's none of your fault. Don't take it to heart."
"Yes, Makenna, listen to Jared." Trenton advised.
Mrs. Gardner also nodded.
Seeing everyone comforting herself, Makenna smiled, "Okay, I see."
"By the way, Jared, how are you going to solve Makenna's case?" Trenton looked at Jared and asked.
Jared lowered his eyes, "You will know tomorrow."
Seeing that he was reluctant to say more, although Trenton was a little unhappy, he didn't ask anymore.
It was quiet all the way. After half an hour, they arrived.
Makenna and her parents got out of the car.
Jared rolled down the car window and looked at them, "Please take good care of Makenna."
"Don't worry." Mrs. Gardner stroked Makenna's head and replied with a smile.
Although Trenton didn't speak, the meaning in his eyes was the same as Mrs. Gardner's.
Jared looked at Makenna again, "Have a good rest at home. I'll pick you up on the weekend."
"Okay, Jared, bye." Makenna nodded.
Jared turned around and drove away.
Soon, he went back to the Farrell Group.
Ben walked into the office with a document, looking complicated, "Mr. Farrell."
"What's the matter?" Jared asked without looking up, staring at the computer screen.
Ben stood in front of his desk, took a deep breath and said, "I have already figured out Miss Reed's physical condition."
Jared stopped typing on the keyboard. Then he looked up at Ben, "So?"
"She... she's pregnant." Ben replied with a weird face.
Jared was stunned suddenly. It took a few seconds for him to come to his senses. There was undisguised surprise in his voice, "What did you say? She is pregnant?"
"Yes, more than a month." Ben nodded.
It was only been over a month since Miss Reed and Mr. Farrell divorced.
It could be seen that as soon as Miss Reed got divorced with Mr. Farrell, she had sex with Mr. Lyon.
Jared closed his eyes so that others couldn't see the emotions in his eyes. But there was a storm in his heart.
Over a month...
He and Amber had only been separated by more than a month since that night, so was it possible that the child was his?
His heart beat faster. Jared's hand on the mouse couldn't help tightening, which showed that he was anxious at the moment.
Ben didn't feel it strange when he saw it.
He knew very well that Mr. Farrell also had feelings for Miss Reed.
So now when Mr. Farrell learned that Miss Reed was pregnant, he definitely couldn't calm down.
Just thinking about it, Ben saw Jared suddenly stand up, "Is there any way to know in advance who is the child's father?"
"Yes, amniocentesis, but there is a great risk of miscarriage. Mr. Farrell, why are you asking this?" Ben was curious.
Jared didn't answer. He frowned tightly.
Looking at his face, Ben suddenly had a bold guess. His eyes widened, "Mr. Farrell, do you suspect that the child is yours?"
Jared glanced at him and nodded slightly.
Ben felt speechless.
The day before the divorce, the two of them still had sex.
He was shocked.
"Is there any other way besides amniocentesis?" Jared looked at Ben and asked again.
