A Surprising Twist of Fates (Sierra and Theo)

Chapter 262 A Clever Woman

Sophie had neither the background nor the ability-she was nowhere near qualified to be Janet's daughter-in-law.

Benson's lifeless eyes suddenly flickered with hope.

Clinging desperately to denial, he muttered like a drowning man grasping at straws, "Yes... That must be it... She's lying. She's trying to drive a wedge between me and Cee.

"There's no pregnancy. It's all fake... It has to be!"

Seeing Benson latch onto this idea, Janet immediately felt reassured. The guilt that had been gnawing at her disappeared in an instant.

"Exactly! Women like her will do anything to trap a rich man. Just because she claims she's pregnant, we're supposed to take her word for it? If that's the case, then I must be the queen of the world!"

As Janet's exaggerations became more absurd, Edward rolled his eyes and looked away.

Sierra, on the other hand, remained composed, her brows slightly furrowed.

"Benson, you're a man. Take responsibility. If Sophie really is pregnant and one day shows up at your door with a child, things will only become more humiliating."

Following her logic, Edward's expression darkened. He jabbed a finger at Benson and ordered sternly, "Call that woman over. If she's truly pregnant, you must take responsibility!"
