CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1918

Caleb smirked, amusement flickering in his eyes.

Vera knew he was teasing her.

But the truth was, when Caleb had passed out drunk, she was the only one around. Of course, she had to stay.

If she had left and something happened to him, it would have been on her.

And besides, as Caleb had pointed out, she was now his “girlfriend” in name. If she had abandoned him, what would people think?

“You never know what can happen in this world,” Vera said matter-of-factly. “At the time, staying was my only option. But let’s drop it. For now, let’s get breakfast. My treat.”

Caleb didn’t argue. “Alright.”

Vera led him to a small breakfast cafe nearby.

“This place makes amazing beef pasta,” she recommended. “You should give them a try.”

“You come here often?” Caleb asked, glancing around.

The cafe was close to the club but far from the Mason estate. It wasn’t the kind of place she would end up at randomly.

Vera lowered her gaze slightly. “Yeah… I used to come here with a friend.”

Caleb noticed the shift in her mood. She seemed distant, lost in thought.

He didn’t press further.

But just as they were about to order, a man suddenly stormed toward them.

“Vera, so this is why you broke up with me?”

The sharp accusation made Vera’s stomach tighten.

She looked up, and the moment she saw him, a wave of emotions crashed over her. Her nose stung, her chest tightened.

Caleb shot her a look, a silent question in his eyes.
