CEO’s Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Chapter 1544

Ben felt Jamie's reaction as her fingers curled tightly around his neck, and the corner of his mouth lifted into a faint, amused smile.

Jamie flushed a deep red, coughing in a mix of embarrassment and frustration, but no words came to her defense.
