The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 191 Moving Again

Life was full of crazy coincidences. The more you dreaded something happening, the more it seemed to pop up, leaving you nowhere to hide.

When Michael saw Andrew's name on the caller ID, he picked up without a second thought.

He figured it wasn't about Veda's kidnapping. Ever since he started suspecting Emily, Michael had told Andrew to only discuss any breakthroughs in the IP address investigation face-to-face. So, this sudden call had to be about work. And if it was work-related, there was no need to avoid Emily.

But at this close range, Emily could hear Andrew too.

What Michael didn't expect was Andrew's first words would instantly freeze the air between him and Emily.

Andrew said, "Mr. Smith, Ms. Brown showed up at the office. She says she's two months pregnant, and the baby is... yours."

Michael's first instinct was to look at Emily. Her eyelids twitched, her face went stiff, and she stared at him blankly, looking lost and confused.

Michael felt the same. Sophia was pregnant? And it was his kid? How was that possible, two months ago...

As Michael tried to piece it together, someone else took the phone. Apparently, Sophia was crying at the office, and Andrew had no choice but to bring her in, and then she grabbed the phone. Listening to her sobs and the words "our child" and "Michael" on the other end, Michael was stunned, and Emily was even more numb.
