CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1346

“Quincy,” Lydia noticed the call and spoke up, “Someone’s calling you. Go ahead and answer. It’s not like you need to worry about me anymore. We’re getting divorced, after all.”

In just a month, they would have their divorce papers, and that would be the end. They would be strangers with no ties left between them.

Quincy finally pressed the answer button, feeling utterly drained. “Mom, is there something you need?”

“Quincy, where have you been these past few days?” Mrs. Perez’s voice was filled with concern.

Ever since that day in the hospital when Quincy mentioned the special herbal tea, Mrs. Perez had been quick to act. She urged her husband to rush home, and then had Mabel keep Quincy occupied. They managed to dispose of the herbal tea successfully, so even if Quincy searched every corner of the house, he wouldn’t find a trace.

After finally breathing a sigh of relief, Mrs. Perez grew increasingly frustrated when Quincy seemingly disappeared, avoiding even a single visit. He wouldn’t even pick up Mabel’s calls.

Today, though, was the day they were supposed to handle the divorce proceedings, so Mrs. Perez was determined to reach him.

When the call finally connected, she pressed him, “Don’t forget to go to the courthouse today.”

“Mom, you called relentlessly just to remind me about the divorce?” Quincy replied, exasperated. He looked around, seeing couples getting married and divorced alike.

Quincy didn’t reply or promise to visit her. He simply ended the call.

Home was supposed to be a place of warmth, but he would rather face the most difficult clients than go back there.

“Well, now you can be the dutiful son your mom has always wanted. I’m sure she’s thrilled we’re getting divorced,” Lydia said, her tone dripping with sarcasm. She hadn’t heard Mrs. Perez’s exact words, but she could easily guess they were less than pleasant.

The thought of their lost child brought a fresh wave of bitterness, and she couldn’t resist taking a jab at him.
