CEO’s Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Chapter 1575

Jamie was clearly displeased with Ben's attitude.

"You're doubting my sister?" she snapped.

"That's not what I meant," Ben said, rubbing his temples as he realized how poorly he had expressed himself.

But Jamie wasn't in the mood to listen.

"Ben. No, I should call you by your real name, Jack Green. Do you even understand how much she sacrificed for you? How could you doubt her?"

"Jamie, I told you that's not what I meant-"

Jamie cut him off. The joy she had felt just moments ago now felt like someone had dumped cold water over her.

The slight thaw in Jamie's attitude over the past few days visibly froze over again. "It's my fault for thinking you'd understand how I feel. I should've known better. Men really can't be relied on."

Ben finally snapped. He grabbed her shoulders, forcing her to face him. "You think I don't understand you? Jamie, what more do you want from me? I love you, not Winnie! And you can't ignore how suspicious her actions are. "Have you even thought about how she managed to fake her death?"
