CEO’s Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Chapter 1661

Jamie knew that ever since Mrs. Lucas had promised to stop interfering in her and Ben's relationship, something about her had profoundly changed.

"I know, I've noticed. These past few weeks, you've been the one taking care of Charlie," Jamie said, her eyes reddening with emotion.

Mrs. Lucas choked up. "He's my grandson. I didn't do anything for him before, but now it's my responsibility."

Her voice trembled. "And honestly, this is the only way I can ease my conscience, even a little."

Letting go of her control, choosing not to obstruct their lives, and doing what little she could now-it was like a knife cutting into her heart every day, leaving her overwhelmed with regret.

She hadn't even thought about it earlier when she stepped in front of the blade. All she could think was that Jamie couldn't die. Jamie needed to live, to build a happy life with Ben. That was the only way forward. "All of that is in the past," Jamie said, her voice breaking with emotion. "What matters now is the future. Ben and I are taking you to the hospital right away. Please don't say anything more. You're going to be fine."

Her words were raw, but they carried strength. Despite everything Mrs. Lucas had done to interfere in the past, Jamie understood that she was acting out of love for Ben, the kind of love any mother would have. If Jamie had been in her place, perhaps she would have acted the same.
