Chapter 180

Drake Ashcroft had been having a difficult time lately.

Several major projects at Ashcroft Group had encountered one problem after another.

The investments his friends had persuaded him to join were consistently losing money, and various investment partners were withdrawing their funding.

Drake had been overwhelmingly busy, rushing about from one meeting to another every day.

That afternoon, Sienna came to Drake’s office.

Unusually, she hadn’t applied makeup or perfume today.

“Drake, I have a surprise for you,” Sienna said with a bright smile.

Drake was in no mood to humor her. Sitting at his desk reviewing documents, he responded impatiently, “Make it quick. I’m extremely busy.”

Sienna smiled coyly and perched herself on the edge of his desk.

“You’re going to be delighted, Drake.” Sienna took a medical report from her handbag and passed it to him with a smile. “Drake, you’re going to be a father.”

Drake’s expression froze as he snatched the paper. “What did you say?”

Sienna’s face radiated joy and excitement. “I’m pregnant! You’re going to be a father!”

Drake’s expression darkened instantly. He stared intently at the paper, his voice cutting. “Get rid of it. This child cannot be born.”

“What did you just say?” Sienna’s smile vanished, replaced with shock. “You’re joking, surely? That’s our child! Why would you want to terminate the pregnancy?”

“Hmph.” Drake gave a cold laugh. “I don’t want it. It’s that simple.”

“Drake Ashcroft!”

Sienna slid off the desk to stand before him, pointing angrily. “You absolute bastard!”

“Don’t make me repeat myself,” the man’s eyes were cold as frost. “Terminate it.”

“I absolutely refuse!” Sienna shouted. “This is my child, and I’ll have it if I want to. You have no say in the matter! I’ll be a single mother if necessary!”
