CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1561

Winnie had no idea what was happening to her.

Her body was completely immobile, and she lay there, questioning everything. Wasn’t she already dead? How could her eyes still open?

She vaguely remembered someone pulling her out just before the explosion.

“You’re awake?” A deep, familiar voice broke the silence.

Winnie’s eyes widened in shock as the man’s face came into focus. It was him!

The masked man.

Her eyes burned with anger, glaring at him as if she wanted to tear him apart.

Unfazed, the man smirked and said, “Don’t look at me like that. I saved you. If it weren’t for me, you’d already be dead. Show some respect to your savior.”

Winnie couldn’t speak, so her furious glare only intensified.

The man nonchalantly patted her shoulder. “Focus on recovering. I still have plans for you.”

Her pupils trembled. What did he mean by that? What was this man planning?

Meanwhile, on the other side of town, Jamie was still feverish and delirious, murmuring Winnie’s name in her sleep.

Ben, visibly anxious, called for Caleb.

“I’m not your personal doctor. If she’s sick, take her to the hospital,” Caleb grumbled, though he still showed up as requested.

After completing his examination, Ben frowned and asked, “How is she? She’s had this fever since last night, even after taking medicine. It hasn’t improved.”

His worry was evident. The normally stoic and composed Ben was now tense, his concern written all over his face.

He had wanted to take Jamie to the hospital, but she had refused, leaving him no choice but to bring Caleb to her.

Ben couldn’t bear to see Jamie so weak and frail. It made him imagine all the worst possibilities.

Ben was determined to help Jamie recover quickly.

After giving Jamie an injection, Caleb left. The rest was up to Ben.

A helper approached hesitantly. “Mr. Lucas, you’ve barely rested since yesterday. Let me take over.”

Ben rubbed his temples and shook his head. “No need. I’ll handle it myself.”

“But if Mrs. Lucas finds out, she’ll worry about you,” the helper added.

Ben narrowed his eyes, his sharp gaze intimidating. “Are you my helper, or my mother’s?”

The helper lowered her head, flustered and too afraid to argue further.

Ben dismissed her, fully aware that Mrs. Lucas had likely placed her there to keep an eye on him. It didn’t surprise him that his mother never fully trusted him.

Under normal circumstances, he would have replaced her immediately. He hated having a spy in his home. But with Jamie still sick, he didn’t have the energy to deal with it.
