Chapter 182 Misunderstanding

"Why do you need pregnancy books?" Sebastian's heart skipped a beat. He tightened his grip on Lydia.

A strong feeling nagged at him. He grabbed Joey and stared. "Joey, are you hiding something? Are you pregnant?"

His questions came fast, overwhelming Joey. She stepped back, annoyed. "Sebastian, what are you talking about? How could I be pregnant?"

"Then why the pregnancy books?" Sebastian watched her closely, not wanting to miss anything.

Just then, Joey's phone rang. She answered quickly.

Alexander's deep voice came through. "Joey, whose baby is Sophia carrying?"

Joey frowned. "Mr. Cross, Sophia's career is taking off. Be careful with your words."

"She said she wasn't feeling well, took a day off, bought a pregnancy test, saw a doctor for prenatal vitamins, and asked pregnant women on set a bunch of questions. If she's not pregnant, what is it?" Joey felt there was a big misunderstanding, making Sophia look pregnant for no reason.

She wanted to explain, but Sebastian's eyes were on her. She bit her lip and said, "Mr. Cross, Sophia's in the entertainment industry. Don't spread rumors about her."

She hung up and met Sebastian's scrutinizing eyes.

"Are these things for Sophia?" he asked.

Joey looked down and stayed silent.

The tension in Sebastian's chest eased a bit. He looked at Joey, disappointed. "I wish it was you who was pregnant."

His voice was sad. Joey felt a pang in her heart.
