Chapter 386 Underestimating Vera

Emily didn't catch Vera's expression and just smiled, nodding. "Yes."

A bit later, a nurse approached Emily. "Hey, your family member went to move the car. He asked me to tell you to meet him at the parking lot after your check-up." Vera wanted to ask more, but Emily was in a rush. "I gotta go. Let's chat next time."

Vera smiled and nodded. "Sure, see you."

As Emily got into the elevator, Vera sighed. "People are so unpredictable."

She then looked for Shawn and Patrick, who were chatting in the hallway. She hurried over, almost running. "Big news, you guys won't believe this!"

Shawn looked unimpressed. "What news? You look like you know some huge secret."

What Vera said next left them both stunned.

"Emily's pregnant, and the baby isn't the bodyguard's or anyone else's—it's Dennis'!"

It was like a bombshell.

Shawn's face went blank.

Vera arrived for her revenge, mimicking Shawn's earlier disdainful tone. "Look at Shawn, so naive. We just talked about the father of the child, and it left Shawn completely stunned. Bet you didn't see that coming." Shawn and Patrick exchanged shocked glances, their eyes wide with disbelief.

Vera, feigning innocence, tilted her head from side to side, clueless about their silent exchange.
