330 Chapter 329

Mary paused immediately when she saw Ellis.

She threw the tissue into the trash can nearby and then stood up straight, tidying the messy hair that had fallen over her face as she had been looking down.

Then, she finally said, “Mr. Olsen, this is the ladies’ restroom, I believe.”

“I know,” he said languidly, leaning against the wall. “I just came to see your pitiful state. What’s the matter? Is your pregnancy making you feel so awful? Wouldn’t it be easier to just terminate it?”

Hearing those words, Mary trembled.

She clenched her fingers and said, “This is a private matter, and it’s not your concern.”

Seeing her like this, Ellis sneered. “Then I apologize for meddling! But as an unmarried woman, once your pregnancy becomes public, it won’t reflect well on you,

will it?”

Mary tensed her jaw, not wanting to speak, and walked directly past him.

Ellis followed her. “What? Struck a nerve, have I? I really don’t understand why you’re so insistent on keeping the child. Are you planning on having the baby to claim some benefits from the father?”

Mary’s chest heaved with agitation at his words.

Once she left the restroom, she stopped abruptly and turned to face Ellis. “Think whatever you want!”

Ellis frowned, feeling irked, “Who exactly is the father of your child?”

Mary stared at him. “I’ve told you before. It’s you.”

Ellis scoffed. “And I’ve told you, it can’t be me. Mary, don’t overestimate your allure, thinking that a man would be willing to wear a cuckold’s horns for you!”

Mary was infuriated by his words and clenched her fists tightly. “In three months, I’ll get an amniocentesis,

and we’ll test the DNA!”

“Still clinging to hope, I see. Fine, who’s afraid?”

Ellis, finding her impervious to reason, turned and left.

The two walked in opposite directions, conveying a sense of parting ways for good.
