She had nothing to worry about. After all, there was no doubt that she was carrying Zachary’s child.Zachary, who was sitting alongside her, looked completely indifferent and unruffled.He trusted Charlotte blindly.This DNA test was simply meant to pacify Lorraine and prevent her from making a fuss.Lucas sat next to them too, casually enjoying his drink.Then, the doctor approached Zachary with the results in his hand. “Mr. Connor, we have the results.”“Mm,” Zachary answered calmly. He helped Charlotte to her feet and walked to the door.Charlotte calmly followed him.Having a paternity test was simply a waste of time. She was getting impatient. Now, the result was out, and it was time for her to leave.“But… Mr. Connor, I haven’t announced the result…” The doctor’s sad voice rang out behind them.Zachary continued walking ahead, refusing to turn around.“I know the result. I don’t need to hear it. All you need to do is tell my aunt, Miss Larson.”‘My aunt… Miss Larson
Zachary shot the doctor an icy glare as he coolly curled the corners of his perfect lips.“Be honest and tell me the identity of the person who made you falsify the results and I might spare your life.”The doctor’s knees buckled from fright. He nearly fell on his knees before Zachary.“Mr. Connor, you’ve got it all wrong. I did not fake the results. I swear on my family. If I had the nerve to lie to you, my entire family would be exterminated!”Zachary’s eyes turned even colder. “You said it yourself. When I kill you and your entire family, don’t come crying to me.”Even though he felt certain of his convictions, the sight of Zachary's apocalyptic gaze still scared the doctor out of his wits.“A word of warning. The person who asked you to hurt my wife, whoever she may be, won’t be shown any mercy once I’ve personally received the results,” he declared icily before he inadvertently shot Lorraine a look.It was only a quick glance, but his eyes seemed sharper than a knife to Lor
“You’re still acting.”Zachary's Adam's apple bobbed up and down in his throat. His voice was deep and hoarse, exhausted and weary.“Whose baby is this?”‘What?’Charlotte’s mind went blank, as if she had received a hard blow on her head.It took her three seconds to calm down before she found her voice again.“Is that even a question? I’m carrying your baby. You’re the father of this child…”Zachary’s lips trembled. His thin lips gaped, but he could not say a word. Only his eyes glared at her, icily, sharply, full of hurt…Charlotte panicked even more when she saw the look in his eyes. She looked at the results in Zachary’s hand with a tremble.“Zachary, you can’t trust this result. You have to believe me. You had so much faith in me a while ago, didn’t you? Something must be wrong with these results. Maybe… Maybe we can do another test? One more test! Surely, there won’t be any mistakes!”“Have you always acted so pure and innocent in front of me?”Zachary’s cold voice was
However, Charlotte was past the point of caring now. She determinedly turned her face away from Zachary’s gaze, turned around, and left.“Where are you going?”Zachary’s voice rang out from the back, deep, hoarse, and fragmented…Charlotte lifted her face and forced the corners of her lips into an arrogant smirk, concealing her deep disappointment. “Aren’t you saying that the baby in my belly is another man’s child? I’m going to see him and make him take responsibility for our baby.”“Charlotte Simmons!” Zachary howled tragically like a wounded animal.He rushed to stop her in a second. His large hand grabbed Charlotte’s throat.“Ugh…” Charlotte couldn’t breathe, and her fair skin instantly turned red.She was suffocating! She was suffocating horribly!Nevertheless, she didn’t feel any pain. Instead, she stared calmly into his icy yet perfect, charming face. His frosted pupils bore down on her, filled with hatred and disgust. The sight of his gaze caused her heart to wither, an
Charlotte’s mind was consumed by concern for Zachary as she eyed the firmly shut door. “Luke, I will explain this misunderstanding to you later. Let me in. I need to see him.”“No!” This was the first time Lucas, who was always smiling and cheery around Charlotte, treated her so coldly.“The Second Master doesn’t want to see you. He’s specifically asked me to guard the door to keep you out!”The tips of Charlotte’s fingers trembled. “But Zachary vomited blood. Is he badly hurt? Is his life in danger?”“Don’t worry. The Second Master is perfectly healthy. He may have suffered some internal injuries due to being infuriated by a certain someone and vomited blood, but that’s not enough to kill him. He’ll be fine in a few days…” Lucas sneered, looking at Charlotte’s face in disdain. “However, now that you’ve mentioned it, Miss Simmons, are you really concerned for the Second Master’s survival? Or are you just pretending like you always have so that the Second Master will think that ev
At the emergency room...“Mr. Connor, although your physical condition has been great, after encountering such a health condition, you must always remember to never get so agitated no matter what happens in the future. Otherwise, your life will be in danger.” The doctor was worried and confused as he looked at Zachary, who was lying on the hospital bed.Which citizen of Rothesay did not know that Mr. Connor was a cold and indifferent man? Extracting any emotion out of him had always been a rather difficult task, let alone provoking him!‘Who has such an ability to frustrate Mr. Connor to an extent which could make him suffer from hematosis!?’Zachary’s face was expressionless, and his eyes were as gloomy as the center of a whirlpool.“Besides that, Mr. Connor, you have to rest more, and remember to take the medicine that I’ve prescribed for you, and—”“That’s enough!” Zachary interrupted the doctor coldly. “Get out!”The doctor was shocked and left speechless due to his domineer
”Scat!”Lorraine seemed to have fallen into the ice cave, and all she could feel was the coldness that surrounded her.However, she knew Zachary very well. Even if she was unwilling to do so, she could only stand up obediently, turn around, and leave.The moment she exited the ward, her body seemed to have been emptied, her legs softened in an instant, and she slumped in the cold corridor.‘Zachary! This man who once loved me as if I was his life had never treated me so rudely in the past nine years.‘However, he has seen the true colors of that b*tch today. What I’ve done was just telling him the truth that Charlotte doesn’t love him, and he actually asked me to scat!‘Could it be that Zachary is so deeply in love with Charlotte that he’s unable to extricate himself from her? Is he so obsessed with her that he will stay with her even after knowing that she has been disloyal to him and is pregnant with another man’s child?‘No! That’s impossible! It’s been less than half a year
Charlotte did not even explain for herself.No one would believe in her now. Her unsupported explanation would only make people feel that she was hypocritical and ridiculous.She planned to go to another hospital and run a paternity test by herself. She would then show the genuine results to everyone who doubted her, making them see the truth!Charlotte took a taxi back to the Divine Sanctuary District.Fortunately, Zachary had not passed down an order to prevent her from entering the mansion.Since Zachary forbade her from entering his bedroom, Charlotte had never gone in without his permission. However, it did not matter anymore now. She went straight in, found a few strands of hair on his pillow, and left in a hurry.One of the servants looked confused. “Ma’am, didn’t Mr. Connor accompany you to the hospital for a pregnancy checkup? Why did you come back alone? That’s also not the main issue here. Why would you enter Mr. Connor’s bedroom, not even stopping to rest for a while,
