394 Chapter 393

Mary’s tears cascaded down her face. “Don’t, Ellis, I beg you…”

“It’s no use. This time, I won’t be soft-hearted again!”

Ellis’s stance was very firm,

He held Mary’s arm tightly with one hand while the other gently straightened her hair. “Once this child is gone, these rumors will subside in time. Later, it’ll be just the two of us, side by side…”

“Ellis! Don’t!!” Mary struggled to break free from his grip, almost shrieking, “I’m begging you! Don’t do this!”

But Ellis didn’t give her another chance to speak and dragged her toward the guest bedroom.

In the living room, James, Charles, and even Victoria were all stunned.

The three of them watched the direction the two had left, all showing expressions of disbelief.

Victoria couldn’t help but glance at James and coughed before saying, “James, are you saying that the child isn’t really Ellis’s?”

James’s face showed a troubled expression as if he had something to say but didn’t dare to speak it.

His straightforward nature was such that he could never keep a secret.

Victoria might not have known what had happened, but she was sure that her guess was absolutely correct!

Charles, who was beside them, couldn’t help but say, “Does Ellis also suspect this? Was he tricked by Mary?”

James snorted. “Fooling around before the wedding, I really don’t understand why Ellis would marry a woman like that, and Uncle Olsen too…”

“What about me?”

The voice of Uncle Olsen came through, causing James’s voice to trail off slightly, and he froze. Then he slowly turned around and smiled ingratiatingly. “Uncle, you are wise and peerless, truly beyond compare!”

Uncle Olsen frowned. “Stop with the nonsense.”

After that, he looked up the stairs, unable to resist asking, “Where are your big brother and
