Chapter 457

Hailey's heart skipped a beat. Crap! She had let it slip.

She was too angry and heartbroken for Celine and the baby. In the heat of the moment, she blurted everything out without thinking.

She quickly tried to cover it up. "Huh? Adam, you misheard. I never said anything about a child."
