CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery Chapter 1385
The timing of Mrs. Perez’s illness seemed almost too convenient. Could she be faking it? The thought struck Quincy, and he decided he needed to investigate further without raising suspicion.Not long after he left, Mrs. Perez got up, unaware that her actions had aroused her son’s suspicions. She was busy consulting with the doctor about her plan. “When you’re with my son, make sure to play up the seriousness of my condition. Otherwise, he’ll keep leaning toward that little troublemaker.”“Don’t worry, we go way back. I won’t let you down.” The doctor thumped his chest in reassurance. “But actually, I could use a hand myself. My son’s studying abroad, and we’re a bit short on funds. Do you think you could lend a little? I’ll pay you back after I get my bonus this year.”Mrs. Perez brushed off his concern with ease, agreeing right away. After all, she had money to spare. When Quincy had worked as an assistant, he had sent her a portion of his paycheck each month. Now that he had his

Looking at his parents, Eugene felt only pity. This was what happened when you couldn’t be with the one you loved. He had no intention of repeating their mistakes.He knew how deeply he loved Lydia. Once they were married, he would make sure to come home to her every night. They would share their lives together, and when they had children, they would travel as a family. His marriage would be nothing like his parents’.“My wedding is my own business,” he told them, his tone firm. “I called you here to inform you, not to ask for permission. We’ll have both families meet soon. Try not to embarrass me.”With that, he walked away. There was nothing more to say to them.Later, as he reached out to Mr. Fay to arrange a dinner for the families, he received an apologetic response. “Sorry, Eugene, but Lydia’s off traveling right now. I’m not sure when she’ll be back. Let’s discuss this again sometime later.”The vagueness in Mr. Fay’s words wasn’t lost on Eugene. Both men understood that “s

Quincy was wide awake, going over the investigation report he had finally gotten his hands on, page by page under his desk lamp. By the time he finished, he was at a loss for words.The surgery had been a lie, but the illness was real. His mother was indeed in the early stages of lung cancer, and with her weak heart, treating both conditions would be incredibly difficult. Yet, even now, rather than focusing on her health, she was fixated on pushing him to leave Lydia.He decided he would have to talk to her about it in the morning. Just as he was about to go to bed, he picked up his phone to check the time and saw a message from Eugene that felt like a slap in the face. The smug text announced Eugene’s engagement to Lydia, complete with screenshots of congratulatory comments flooding social media.Quincy felt as though every drop of blood had stopped cold in his veins.Eugene and Lydia, getting married?It was all over the trending news, so it had to be true. But was this Lydia’s

“Who started spreading this nonsense? They’re out here ruining lives, just saying whatever they want,” Mrs. Fay fumed. Once she tracked down whoever was responsible, she was ready to sue and make them pay. This was too much.“It’s probably not just some random account,” Lydia replied thoughtfully. “At most, they’re just adding fuel to the fire. I think I know exactly who’s behind this.”“Who?” Mr. Fay asked urgently. “Tell me, and I’ll make sure they face the consequences. This is infuriating!”“Eugene,” Lydia said flatly.Silence fell on the other end. Her parents exchanged glances, disbelief written across their faces.Eugene had always seemed like such a stand-up guy, genuinely fond of Lydia, treating her parents with respect like they were his own. How could he possibly pull something like this?Lydia guessed her parents would have trouble believing it. She continued, “He’s been pushing hard for marriage. He knocked on my door for so long that even the neighbors came out to

Mrs. Perez panicked. All Quincy’s recent concessions had been because he thought she was sick. If he discovered the whole truth, it would likely end in a huge fallout, and he would probably go straight back to Lydia.Her eyes went dark just thinking about it. “Quincy, please, let me explain.”“What is there to explain? The facts are right here. Mom, you’re not a child anymore,” Quincy replied, exasperated. “How could you use something like this as a joke?”The diagnosis was clear on her chart, and he had even consulted specialists who said this illness couldn’t be ignored. Surgery and treatment now could at least give her a good quality of life, but if delayed, even surgery might only keep her bedridden. He couldn’t bring himself to ignore her condition.“But I did it for your own good! If you’d just let me worry a little less, I wouldn’t have had to lie,” Mrs. Perez insisted, realizing her explanations weren’t working. She decided to pull out the “mother’s love” card, hoping to pr

“People who are sick get treatment to stay alive, but if you’re perfectly healthy, taking treatment is like asking for trouble,” Mrs. Perez laughed. “I just made it up to fool him a little.”After all, a mother knew best, and her son was no match for her.The doctor thought of mentioning that Quincy had already paid for her treatment, but he reconsidered. Whether the money had been paid or not, she didn’t actually need any treatment. If he refunded it, Quincy would immediately suspect something was up.After a moment, the doctor proposed a plan, “Here’s an idea. I’ll bring your medication every day, but you don’t take it, no IVs or anything. If Quincy checks in, we’ll both be covered.”“Good thinking! You really know your stuff,” Mrs. Perez grinned, completely unaware of the trouble looming ahead.……Meanwhile, Lydia had just landed. When she got home, she found Eugene standing at the door, carrying his usual load of gifts for her parents, putting on quite the show. But her paren

She wasn’t just laughing at Eugene. She was laughing at herself. Time and again, she had trusted the wrong person. “Trust isn’t something that’s just given. It’s something you earn. Just go. There’s no reason for you to be down on one knee in front of me. Don’t do this. It doesn’t mean anything.”“Lydia!” Eugene reached out again, desperately gripping the hem of her coat. He held on tightly, not daring to let go for even a second, fearing that if he loosened his grip, he would lose her forever.“Just go home. You’ll have your life, and I’ll have mine,” Lydia said firmly, slipping out of her coat. “I told you before that we can’t even be friends.”Eugene was left holding nothing but the coat, watching helplessly as Lydia walked away with her parents. Mrs. Fay glanced back several times, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she just picked up her pace and disappeared with Lydia from his sight.Once they were home, Lydia didn’t bring up Eugene. Instead, she dove straig

In just one week, Lydia had accomplished so much that even her supervisor took notice of her hard work and dedication. “Tomorrow, we're meeting with a client. I’d like you to come with me.”“A client meeting? Really?” Lydia's eyes lit up. She had once been an assistant to Nash, so handling clients was nothing new. But after only a week at her family’s company, being invited to a client meeting felt like a clear sign of her supervisor’s trust in her.“Absolutely. I’ve been observing your skills and your attitude, and honestly, I think you might be even better than me. You’re more than ready to meet clients,” her supervisor affirmed.There was still plenty of prep work for the meeting, so her supervisor forwarded all the project files to Lydia’s email. Opening her inbox for the first time in a while, Lydia saw her supervisor’s email at the top, but she also noticed an unread message from Quincy. She had intended to delete it, but her finger slipped, opening the email instead. No

Winnie reacted strongly, refusing to believe any of it. “We’ve known each other for so long. He’s always been so good to me, and he’s incredibly dedicated to his work. He’s an exceptional lawyer. How could he possibly do something like this? You have to investigate thoroughly and clear his name,” she said, her voice trembling. The captain waited until she finished before asking, “Miss Lewis, just now you called him ‘Jack.’ Is that right?” “Yes, that’s his name, Jack Green. We’re engaged, and we’re getting married soon. Is there a problem with me calling him that?” Winnie responded, momentarily stunned. Her first thought was that the captain was being unnecessarily nosy. Was it wrong for an engaged couple to call each other by their first names?The captain shook his head. “This has nothing to do with your upcoming marriage, but the name you’re using doesn’t match the one on his ID. Were you aware of that?” “You’re joking, right? That’s not funny,” Winnie said, her face

While Nash spent time with his daughter, Gemma, every day, Nina and Pharaoh had missed out on so much together. Now that the doctors had given Pharaoh only five years to live, it was clear they needed to make the most of the time they had left and create as many good memories as possible.Lydia completely understood.She waved goodbye to Nash, then linked her arm through Quincy’s as the two walked toward their parked car.“I was thinking that, since work has been slow, we could take a short trip to a nearby city,” Quincy said, glancing at her with a warm expression. “But it looks like we’ll have to postpone it.”With her by his side, life felt perfect.Lydia smiled. “If not this week, then next week or the one after. We’ve got all the time in the world.”They were still young, with plenty of time to do everything they wanted.……Meanwhile, Winnie was left alone at home since Jamie went out to work. With nothing else to do, she decided to tidy up. The villa was large, and clea

Nash was the first to speak. “Mrs. Lucas, what exactly happened to Ben? Can you tell us everything? Let’s see if there’s a way we can help.”“Alright. Thank goodness he has friends like you. Otherwise, I’d have no idea what to do right now.” Mrs. Lucas recounted the situation in detail but carefully omitted her own involvement.The living room fell silent, and everyone’s expressions darkened.“I raised Ben. I know my son. He would never do something like this. It must be a setup,” Mrs. Lucas said, her voice trembling with emotion. The more she spoke, the more heartbroken she felt. All she could think about now were her Ben’s virtues. Apart from refusing to listen to her about marriage and career plans, Ben had always been a good son.“Don’t worry, Mrs. Lucas. We’ll figure something out,” Lydia offered as she stood and gently guided Mrs. Lucas to the nearby study. “You should rest for a bit. Don’t wear yourself out.”Quincy watched Lydia closely as she left the room. Only when sh

Mrs. Lucas deeply regretted her decision. If she had known it would come to this, she would never have sought out this man for help. “You hide behind a mask and won’t even show your face. How can you call yourself a man?”“Mrs. Lucas, do you really think throwing insults will make me take off the mask and obediently do your bidding like a dog?” The masked man remained calm, his tone even laced with amusement, which only added to Mrs. Lucas’s frustration.She was on the verge of breaking down. “Just name your price. How much will it take to get my son out of there?”As long as Ben could walk out safely and unharmed, no amount of money was too much.But the masked man shook his head. “This isn’t about money. If it were that simple, you wouldn’t be here begging me for help.”The truth was, Mrs. Lucas had come to him because she had run out of options. He was her last hope. Yet, he shrugged nonchalantly, as if to show her just how powerless he really was.“I don’t make the laws, an

Why would Caden do this?“And then there’s that recent case you handled. The client is suspected of laundering money for an international corporation, and these are the ‘evidences’ you submitted.” The captain’s brows furrowed as he pulled a file from the side, placing it in front of Ben. “Take a look at what you turned in.”The documents were full of evasive arguments, but the worst part was that a check had somehow been slipped between the pages. With all this evidence piled up against him, even as a lawyer, Ben had no way to prove his innocence.He had no idea how things had come to this. He had personally organized and submitted these files to the court, but the ones on record were completely different. Someone had swapped them out.But who?Ben handled everything himself, except for having his assistant print the documents. Could it be…?“Mr. Lucas, the evidence is overwhelming. You’d better think about how to clear your name,” the captain said, standing up and looking at Ben

“Please come with us,” one of the officers stepped up, holding a pair of silver handcuffs.Ben was even more puzzled. He hadn’t done anything illegal. Why were these officers showing up at his office? And why the cuffs?His first reaction was to step back. “You must have the wrong person.”“Your name is Ben Lucas, right? We’ve already matched your photo. I suggest you don’t resist and just come along quietly,” the officer barked.They wouldn’t be here without solid evidence. There was no mistake.“If you’re taking me in, I’d like to know the reason,” Ben replied, still trying to make sense of what was happening.To the officers, his reaction came across as defiant, making him look even more suspicious.“Don’t tell me you’re unaware of your own wrongdoing? You’re supposed to be a lawyer, familiar with the law. How convenient to play ignorant when it applies to you!“Think carefully! Confess, and things might go easier for you. Resist, and you’ll only make it worse. Don’t interfe

How could Jamie feel right about taking the money? In just a few days, Winnie had already lent her so much. She couldn’t keep taking advantage of her.“Jamie, if I were living alone, I wouldn’t care so much. But now, with Jack and the baby on the way, it’s unrealistic for us to keep living together forever. Take this money. It’s enough to cover at least half a month’s rent,” Winnie said firmly.Jamie could hear the underlying message. Winnie was trying to hint, as gently as possible, that it might be time for Jamie to find her own place. It made sense. Winnie was building her own family and naturally wanted privacy. Having a relative around wasn’t exactly ideal, especially with everything Ben had been doing lately. While he hadn’t openly revealed anything about their past, it was clear enough that Winnie had noticed something.Jamie truly wanted to move out, but the moment she started looking for a place, Ben would make her life difficult. She didn’t mind for herself, but with

The next morning, Ben opened his eyes. He immediately noticed the blanket covering him. Could Jamie have been the one taking care of him last night?He sat up, only to see Winnie sleeping on a makeshift bed on the floor.“You’re awake? You were so drunk last night that you passed out on the way home. It was a struggle just getting you here. I even tried to wake you up for some tea to help sober you up, but you were completely out,” Winnie said as she woke up, too.After straightening up the living room a bit, she went to the kitchen and came back with a mug of warm herbal tea. “I’m guessing the hangover’s mostly gone, so you probably don’t need anything strong. But this will soothe your throat.”“You don’t have to go through all this trouble,” Ben replied, placing the mug on the coffee table without drinking it.Ben looked around the room. It was just the two of them. Where had Jamie gone?The thought nagged at him, so he asked directly.“Jack, I’m not sure if I should say this…

“He… likes my sister?” The shocking thought had barely surfaced before it jolted Winnie. “You’ve got the wrong person. I’m not Winnie,” Jamie quickly pushed Ben toward Winnie’s side.A look of irritation crossed Ben’s face. It was Jamie he wanted to hold. What did Winnie have to do with him?Annoyed, he grumbled, “Why do you keep pushing me away?”“Jack, you’re mistaken. I’m your fiancée!” Winnie finally couldn’t hold back anymore. She strode over, took Ben’s hand, and placed it around her waist. “I get that my sister and I look a bit alike, but you can’t keep confusing us like this!”She had brushed it off the first couple of times, but this was going too far.Ben still seemed inclined to push her away.Just then, the taxi arrived, and Jamie opened the front passenger door, slipping inside. Seeing this, Ben staggered in her direction, while Winnie hurried to open the back door for him.Once inside, Ben leaned back in the seat and fell asleep almost immediately.Not wanti
