Hertha listened with a grave expression, her hands clenched tightly on the table.
Alaric glanced back at her, noticing the struggle she was trying to hide.
In a mix of panic and anger, he confronted Georgia, "Stop lying, Georgia. You'd do anything to marry me!"
Knowing Georgia as he did, if she were pregnant with his child, she would've made it known immediately, even making it the talk of the town. Using the child as leverage was the fastest way to get him to marry her.
Why would she give up such an opportunity for a laughable reason and go abroad to have the child alone, only to bring him back now?
Georgia was hurt, incredulous as she looked at Alaric, "This kind of person?”
Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke to Alaric, hurt, "What kind of person do you think I am in your eyes?"
"You know exactly what kind of person you are!" Alaric said sternly, his face cold.
Over the past three years, Georgia had been spoiled, willful, and aggressive, displaying all the arrogance and sharpness of a pampered heiress.
Alaric had seen her true colors!
And because he had seen her true colors, he found it hard to believe her words.
The idea that she hid the existence of their child to make him fall in love with her and willingly marry her was something Alaric found too simplistic to believe.
Seeing Alaric's resolute attitude, Georgia's tears fell as she choked up, "Everything I've told you is true. Even your mother doesn't know about the child. I didn't tell her because I wanted you to fall in love with me, to marry me willingly. If you don't believe me, we can get a paternity test..."
