CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1446

“‘Innocent?’” Ben scoffed coldly. “You took all that money and didn’t share a cent with your sister? If that’s true, maybe this whole sisterly bond isn’t worth as much as you think.”

Jamie's heart sank again. She knew that nothing she said would make a difference now. Ben would never believe her. To him, she was just a woman who took what she could get, unworthy of even a second glance.

Still, she found herself pleading with him, “It’s been four years since we ended. Now Winnie is carrying your child. If you’re truly committed to her, please treat her well.”

But Ben’s gaze only grew colder. His hand slid to her collar, and Jamie felt a spike of panic. They were in a public hallway, surveillance cameras overhead, and anyone could walk by at any moment. If someone saw them like this, the scandal would be unavoidable.

What would happen to Winnie? All she wanted was a family of her own, a loving husband and an adorable child.

Jamie’s guilt weighed heavier with each passing second. Why hadn’t she checked in on Winnie over the years? If only she had known Winnie’s boyfriend was Ben, she would have intervened immediately, separating them before things went this far.

“Jamie, you think a few words are enough to settle everything you owe me?” Ben sneered. “You think your words are worth so much?”

“The debt between us will never balance out. I can choose to reject you, but you don’t have the right to walk away from me.”

Years ago, she had kicked him out of her life. Did she really think he would let her do it a second time?

“Then what about Winnie? And her baby?” Jamie protested, desperation breaking her voice.

He had become the most respected lawyer in Birkham, yet only he felt the emptiness that came with it.

And Jamie?

She had walked away, taken her money, and lived comfortably, never looking back.

Why should he be the only one to suffer? She needed to feel it too. That was only fair.
