CEO’s Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Chapter 1600

Jamie frowned. "Aren't you getting it backwards? Haven't you been the ones pushing us into a corner all this time?"

The woman stiffened and retorted sharply, "That's because we have no choice but to protect ourselves."

Perhaps she had been holding her son too tightly, because the boy squirmed and mumbled, "Mom, you're hurting me."

The woman quickly loosened her grip, her face flushed with guilt. "I'm sorry, Hugo."

The boy rubbed her arm gently and replied in his soft, sweet voice, "It's okay, Mommy. I forgive you."

Her son's reassurance seemed to calm her nerves.

Seizing the moment, Jamie said, "I think there's a misunderstanding between us."

"What misunderstanding? Are you going to deny that Mrs. Lopez ended up in the hospital because of you? You people, with your wealth and power, could crush us with no effort," the woman sneered. So it came down to this, just as Jamie had anticipated.

Fortunately, she was prepared. Before leaving the hospital, she had obtained Mrs. Lopez's medical report.

"Mrs. Zeller, I'd like you to take a look at this before you jump to conclusions," Jamie said, placing the report on the table and sliding it toward her.
