Loving You In Secret (Vicky and Tyler) novel Chapter 1668

Old Mister Hart had gathered enough information about the situation based on Avery's silence and said, "Avery, do you mean to say that this child might not be Tyler's?"

Avery bit her lip and replied, "I can assure you that there's an 80-percent chance this child is Tyler's, but there's also a possibility it's Lincoln's..."

Although Lincoln was an adopted son, he was still a member of the Hart family. Whether this child belonged to Tyler or Lincoln, it was still a member of the family. Furthermore, Avery was married to Lincoln, so there was no need to terminate the pregnancy.

Valencia and Orion looked at each other in displeasure. They disliked Avery's cunning nature, but they placed just as much importance on the family's heir as Old Mister Hart did, especially since they doted on Lincoln, who had not shown interest in women in the past.

Old Mister Hart, too, understood this and questioned, "Avery, are you certain that this child is either Tyler's or Lincoln's?"

"I swear!" she said earnestly.

"Avery, your words alone don't mean much," Old Mister Hart responded in amusement.

Avery looked confident. "In a few weeks, I can do a prenatal paternity test."

She had indeed taken thorough preparations the night she slept with Tyler. She was within her fertile period, and with the hormone injections she had taken, the child could not possibly be Lincoln's.

Old Mister Hart stared at Avery for a long while and relaxed slightly when he spotted no sign of deception on her face. "Now, since Tyler says this child might not be his, we'll have to wait until we can do a paternity test to confirm."

Old Mister Hart had inquired about this and was told that a prenatal paternity test was only accurate after about two months of pregnancy.

Avery did not object to this and looked into Old Mister Hart's eyes. "But if this child is Tyler's?"
