CEO’s Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Chapter 1634

A female employee with dark circles under her eyes spoke up quietly, "Jamie, have you ever been scolded by Mr. Lucas?" Jamie instinctively replied, "No..."

The moment the word left her lips, she regretted it.

As expected, everyone's eyes lit up with curiosity, and they swarmed around her, pestering her for tips on avoiding Ben's wrath. Jamie, clutching her laptop, bolted out of the office like her life depended on it.

"Too dangerous," she thought to herself.

The office was no longer a safe haven for her.

Still holding unfinished reports, Jamie decided to retreat to a quiet lounge to complete her work. But as she entered, she froze.

Ben was already there, sitting with his laptop, his piercing gaze lifting to meet hers.

Jamie instinctively stepped back, "Oh, sorry, wrong room."

"Jamie," Ben called out, his tone firm, "have you been avoiding me?"

Jamie's heart raced, unsure of how to respond.

Ever since Ben's heartfelt words a few days ago, her emotions had been a tangled mess. She had no idea how to face him. Avoidance seemed like the safest option.

But Ben had clearly had enough of her evasiveness. He stepped closer, his voice resolute. "You can reject me if that's how you feel, but running away? What's that supposed to mean? Do you see me as someone to be afraid of?" Realizing his misunderstanding, Jamie tried to explain but faltered.
