Chapter 1025


The slam of Mr. Walker's palm on the table almost sent Devin's soul flying out of his body.

His knees buckled so hard he nearly collapsed. "M-Mr. Walker, there's no way that's my kid! This has to be a misunderstanding. Mrs. Walker and I... we were just classmates, that's all. Whatever happened back then was just stupid stuff from when we were young and clueless, nothing more."

No matter what Autumn had said, Devin clung desperately to denial.

He wasn't an idiot-admitting it would be signing his own death warrant.

With a single word, Mr. Walker could have Devin locked up for life, or worse, make him disappear without a trace.

Seeing Devin refuse to budge, Mr. Walker's face went cold and hard. His voice rang out, sharp and unforgiving. "Devin, don't say I never gave you a chance. If you won't own up today, then from now on, Autumn and the child she's carrying are mine. If I hear even a whisper about this, don't blame me for what comes next."

Devin stood frozen, stunned. What was Mr. Walker getting at?

Did he know the truth about whose child it was?

And if he did, why would he claim the baby as his own?

Devin was so scared he hardly dared breathe. Mr. Walker, clearly disgusted, didn't spare him another glance.

He opened the door and tossed a final warning over his shoulder. "Don't let me see you in Riverdale again." Then he walked out, his men trailing after.

It was a long time before Devin snapped out of it. His legs gave out and he slumped to the floor, heart pounding.
