You Are The Pursuit of My Life

Chapter 149

Edric did not speak. It did not matter whose child Eden was. What mattered to him most was Irene. She had agreed to Nathan's marriage proposal after leaving him behind in San Fetillo! Edric was heartbroken. "Edric, Eden is your son!" Joanne said.

"Nonsense!" Edric was stupefied. He had instructed John to investigate Eden's identity in the past. Joanne must be talking nonsense.

"I'm not! Eden is indeed your son." Joanne's voice was very clear. "I heard Grandma and Nathan said that with my own ears. It can't be wrong!"

Edric almost dropped his phone. After a long pause, he finally asked, "How is it possible?"

Joanne scoffed. She could imagine how surprised Edric must be right now.

"Irene was already pregnant with your child when both of you underwent divorce. She hated you for being so cruel; hence, she didn't tell you that. Eden was sick, that was why she came back to San Fetillo this time. Her purpose was to save him by having another child with you and treating him with the cord blood!" Joanne explained in detail, leaving Edric dumbfounded on the other side of the phone.

His phone dropped to the ground and he sat there motionless. He, who had always been smart, couldn't understand the logic of the matter.

"What's wrong?" Lily asked as she watched his expression. It seemed that something bad had happened. Edric ignored her questions and headed straight out of the room.

Lily wanted to chase after him but he had disappeared. Her bad hunch was growing stronger. "Who was the person who called Edric just now?"

"John, book a flight ticket to Mencodia for me as soon as possible. I am going to leave here right away," Edric ordered. He went straight to the basement parking lot, started the car, and sped off.

At the airport.

"Mr. Myers, why do you want to go to Mencodia all of a sudden?" John asked with confusion.

"Send me the specific location of the White Mansion. You must find it before I get off the plane." After that, he went straight to the ticket counter to check in.

John shook his head and thought that this matter must have something to do with Irene.

Early in the morning, Irene went to the hospital for an examination with Nathan and Eden by her side.

Eden was in good health and so was Irene.

"Should we celebrate such good news?" Nathan chirped happily as they walked out of the hospital.

Eden couldn't contain his excitement and said, "I want to eat something delicious."
