Secretary’s Secret Lover by Zayla Quinn

Chapter 273 The Child Is Not Mine

The familiar remarks amused Yvette, but she held back her laughers.

Lance stared at her and said, “Yazmin is not pregnant with my child.”

Yvette sneered, “Lance, do I look stupid? If the child is not yours, why do you still keep her by your side?”

“I did take her out, but not out of pity or sympathy. There is a reason why I must do it.”

Lance didn’t disclose what the reason was. He paused and said, “One day, I will tell you everything, but not now.”

Yvette felt nothing hearing his speech. She even wanted to laugh.

He didn’t even bother himself to make up a convincing excuse.

Indeed, she didn’t deserve him to do so.

Yvette’s silence made Lance panic. He held her hand and said, “I won’t divorce you. Stop thinking about leaving me, okay?”

These days, he was afraid that he would lose of control his emotions if he went home, so he stayed at the company to sleep.

When he could not sleep at night, he found that he could not accept it if Yvette left him.

And that day, he lost his mind because she wanted to leave secretly.

After thinking for a long time, he decided to accept the child in Yvette’s belly. Since he couldn’t bear to let go, he would accept

it all.

Moreover, he still had some expectations in his heart. Perhaps this child was his.

After all, he had slept with Yazmin several times a while ago.

He couldn’t just listen to Charlie’s one–sided words. That man was sinister and cunning.

He decided that regardless of whether the baby was his or not, he would accept it. He would coax Yvette to let go of the past, hoping that she would tell him about the child herself.

Yvette was pissed off when she heard this. She snapped, “Lance, have you been lying to me all this time?”

She thought, the damned consensual marriage he proposed is just a disguise. He just wanted to lock me up.

Lance said frankly, “I didn’t lie to you. I admit that I was selfish when I remarried you. Even if my grandfather hadn’t fallen ill,

I would still want to get married to you. So, you can be with me. Don’t think about anything else. I won’t let you go.”

Yvette became numb when she heard this.

She knew that if she was agitated, Lance would lock her up again and watch her more closely.

Yvette smiled bitterly and said lightly, “Alright, send me to Ellen’s place for now.”

Yvette’s reaction stunned Lance. He met her gaze and asked again, “Yvette, what did you just say?”
