CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1377

“Lydia, do you really not feel anything for me? Not even a little?” Eugene asked, still clinging to a thread of hope. “Just a little, that's all I’m asking.”

He had tried so hard, done everything he could, and still, it was as if he couldn’t melt Lydia’s heart.

“And we've already been involved. I want to take responsibility for that. I'm not trying to play around. Lydia, please think this over carefully. We slept together!”

“Do you hear yourself right now?” Lydia sighed, her patience running thin. The more he clung to her, the more determined she felt. It was clear they couldn't even remain friends.

With a final attempt at patience, she said, “That night is behind us, Eugene. Stop bringing it up. According to your logic, since I have a child with Quincy, he and I should be bound together forever. But that's just not how things work.”

Eugene clenched his fists, his jaw tightening. “Lydia, don’t say things just to push my buttons.”

The thought of Lydia and Quincy reconciling made Eugene feel physically ill.

Lydia looked at him calmly. “I’m not trying to provoke you. I’m just making a point. You should go now, and please don’t keep knocking on my door like that. I don’t want a repeat of what just happened.”

“Lydia! Are you really so cold-hearted? You won’t even offer me a cup of tea after I’ve been out there all this time? Just let me rest for a minute. I’m exhausted from standing outside.” Eugene lowered his tone, trying to appeal to her sympathy.

Determined, Eugene withdrew cash from the bank and went to a high-end jewelry store to choose an impressive engagement gift set.

“Are you shopping alone today, sir?” the sales associate asked, surprised to see him by himself. “Usually, couples come together to pick these out.”

“She’s tied up with other things,” Eugene replied. “I’ll take care of it. I want the biggest, most eye-catching pieces you have.” He was set on selecting the finest jewelry to impress Lydia’s parents and show he was serious.

The associate helped him pick out an elegant necklace and a pair of intricate earrings, but as they moved to bracelets, she paused and asked, “Do you know her wrist size by chance?”
