CEO’s Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Chapter 1601

Jamie ran over, her heart pounding, terrified that the elderly woman might vanish before she could reach her.

"Mom, how are you here?" She grabbed the woman's hand, her eyes brimming with tears of joy.

She expected recognition, perhaps even relief, but instead, the woman recoiled in fear.

"Don't hit me, I'll leave right away," the woman stammered, trembling.

Jamie's heart shattered. "Why would I hit you? Mom, it's me, Jamie, your daughter!"

"I don't know you."

The words hit Jamie like a bolt of lightning. Not know her?

How could that be? There was no way she could mistake her own mother.

Her mind raced, turmoil bubbling beneath the surface, but seeing how scared the woman looked, Jamie softened her tone. "I would never hurt you. Please, just take a good look at my face." The woman hesitated for a long moment before slowly lifting her head.
