Chapter 738

Much to her astonishment, Garrett remained mute and ushered her directly into the VIP room upon setting eyes on her.

Kailee surveyed the stark, sterile chamber with a tinge of dissatisfaction. She immediately wore a petulant expression and queried, “Why have you brought me here? I thought we were embarking on a date. Don’t tell me you’re reneging on your promise.”

Garrett’s gaze bore into Kailee, emanating a formidable chill. “This is your final opportunity. Tell me truthfully, what transpired between us on the day Laney went into labor?”

“What are you insinuating?” Kailee’s heart stuttered at his inquiry, but she endeavored to maintain her composure. “If you’re contemplating backpedaling on our agreement, I’ll go inform Laney this instant.” Garrett scrutinized her obstinate and unyielding countenance and released a frigid sneer.

He promptly produced the evidence Natalie had procured and laid it before Kailee. “The time for pretense is over. The truth can no longer be evaded.”

Following his farewell to Laney that fateful day, Garrett had jetted off to an international hotel for critical business negotiations.

Prior to his marriage, Garrett had been quite the libertine. One undeniable fact was his remarkable ability to hold his liquor.

However, that day, after just a few drinks with his business associate, Garrett found himself reeling, disoriented and unsteady. He brushed it off as a waning tolerance, a consequence of reduced consumption since tying the knot.

Fighting through the dizziness, he managed to conclude the negotiations. As he attempted to take his leave, he realized his assistant had vanished into the restroom and had yet to return.

The vertigo intensified, making it nearly impossible for him to remain on his feet. It was then that Kailee materialized and whisked him away.

At that point, Garrett’s consciousness was slipping, and he couldn’t recognize the figure before him. He was in a stupor as Kailee guided him from the premises.

The instant Kailee’s eyes fell upon the proof shown by Garrett, her visage drained of color.

Summoning her composure, she scoffed, “I merely chanced upon you. Seeing you struggle to walk, I lent a hand to get you to your room.
