Clark briefly flipped through the reports, handed them back to Jordyn, and said indifferently, "Remember to keep these safe."

Jordyn took the reports. After placing them back in the drawer, she turned to face Clark. "Clark, is something wrong today? You seem a bit off."

Her unease grew as she wondered if he had discovered something.

Clark squinted slightly and, after a few seconds, said, "It's nothing. I'm probably just tired from work."

"Then lie down on the sofa, and I'll give you a massage," Jordyn offered.

"No need. I have work at the company. I just came to see you. Get some rest," Clark replied.

Normally, Jordyn would have tried to persuade Clark to stay, but she had her own concerns and didn't push the issue today.

Once she confirmed that Clark's car had left, she immediately called Rebecca. "Rebecca, did you say something to Clark?"

"What do you mean?" Rebecca asked.

Jordyn sneered. "What do I mean? Clark suddenly showed up tonight asking to see my prenatal check-up reports. The only person who knew about that was you. You must have said something to him!"
