The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

"I'm here!"

At that call, Jeffrey hurried over.

"Here's the paternity test report. Take a look."

The doctor handed over the document. Huxley and Paloma leaned in to see, but Paige held back.

She felt it was pointless.

Jeffrey's gaze dropped to the last line of the report where, in bold, black print, it read:

Based on DNA analysis, Subject 1 (Jeffrey) and Subject 2 (Iris) are not related as parent and child.

"Not related! Honey, look! Not related!"

Jeffrey stood frozen, but Paloma was the first to snap out of it, grabbing Huxley and exclaiming with joy.

At hearing this, Paige immediately came over with the child in arms, snatching the report, "Impossible... This can't be! Jeffrey, you're the only man for me!"

"Who knows now？" Jeffrey looked at her with an angry gaze. "Paige, do you have any idea how much you've ruined me?"

He almost lost his own flesh and blood!

But thankfully, thankfully, there was still time to set things right!

"No, this can’t be!" Paige shook her head vehemently, then rushed to the doctor, grabbed his collar and demanded loudly, "The paternity test is flawed! Did the Turners pay you off?"

"Wha—No, absolutely not! We're legally accountable for these tests. We wouldn't dare!"

"This can't be! Jeffrey, I've only ever been with you! After you broke up with me, I never got over you. I held onto the hope that one day you'd see my true heart and come back to me. How could I possibly be with another man—"

"I don't want to hear any of this now."

Jeffrey turned to leave.

Paige blocked him and said, "You can't go! I suspect there's something wrong with this child, maybe... maybe there was a mix-up! I definitely had your child. If you didn't tamper with the test, then the child must be mistaken!"

Huxley and Paloma exchanged a look and for the sake of thoroughness, suggested, "Well then, Paige, why don't you and the child also get tested to see if there's a blood relation? Since we're all here, let's clear this up."

If it really was a mix-up, then it was another false alarm.

The possibility made Jeffrey's face become gloomy. "Yes, you two get tested as well."

"Alright, I will." Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

Paige went straight into the testing room with the child and the doctor.

Outside, Paloma squeezed Jeffrey's hand and said, "Jeffrey, there's hope! You and Karen might reconcile! It looks like this child really isn't yours!"

Jeffrey gripped the test report in his hand tightly, as if it were a royal decree absolving him of a death sentence.

But he didn't seem entirely sure.

"Mom, if the child isn't mine, Karen will come back to me, right?"

"Of course! Karen likes you! Don't worry, your dad and I will talk to her! The only wedge between you two was Paige and this child. Now that it's proven you're unrelated, of course, you can start afresh!"

Jeffrey looked down, his gaze fixed on the line of the report, his brow furrowed.

He thought of what Karen had said to him.

She said, "Today it's Paige, tomorrow it could be anyone!"

She said she was fed up.

"Mom, you have to bring Karen back!"

"I'll do everything I can!"

"Not everything you can, you must." Jeffrey's lips barely moved, his voice deep and hoarse, "She... she's pregnant."
