Chapter 2104

Just as Beck was about to agree, the church doors swung open dramatically, and a stranger walked in carrying a baby.

The child was crying, barely two months old by the looks of it.

Instinctively, Beck was about to tell someone to escort the intruder out when the woman holding the child spoke up.

"Mr. Sanders, this is your child. The woman you spent that night with at the gala wasn't Miss Bess."

Her words sent a ripple of whispers through the congregation like a sudden gust of wind.

Beck's brow furrowed as he turned to Bess, searching her face.

A flash of guilt crossed Bess's face, and just as she was about to protest, Beck

was already moving toward the woman with the baby.

Bess's face turned ashen, and she grabbed his sleeve desperately.

"Beck, we're at this point already. Do you really want to call off the wedding? It would be disastrous for both our families. Are you sure about this?"

Beck asked just one question.

"Why did you lie to me?"

Tears welled up in Bess's eyes instantly.

"I had no choice. I've loved you for so long, and this was the only way I could keep you by my side. I don't mind if you have a child outside; we can raise it together. Beck, I've known you for years, and my feelings are real. Why can't you see that?" Bess started crying, and the murmuring in the crowd grew louder. Yet Beck had already reached the woman's side, looking down at the baby in her arms.

The woman was plain and honest-looking, and she handed the baby to him.

"Mr. Sanders, I'm just delivering a message. I have no idea who the mother is, but she insisted the father is definitely you."
