CEO’s Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Chapter 1308

Lydia knew this was exactly the kind of thing her parents would do. She didn't ask Eugene to leave, but she also

didn't engage with him.

Instead, she walked to the window and stared out at the busy streets below, ignoring his constant chatter behind

her.

It wasn't until he brought up her parents again that she finally listened. "Lydia, even though you're married,

you're still their daughter. Do you really think they'd ignore what's happening with you? They know everything

about you and Quincy, including that you're staying at this hotel, which actually has shares owned by your

family."

Lydia blinked, surprised. She quickly checked her phone and, sure enough, found that her family held a one

percent stake in the hotel chain. It wasn't enough to influence management, but it would certainly allow them to

access the guest list easily.

So she had misjudged Eugene after all. Lydia turned around and apologized, "I'm sorry. | jumped to conclusions.

But there's no future for us, and | just can't do this."

“I know,” Eugene replied, playing the part of the innocent friend. "We're just friends. But you know our parents

won't accept that. They've always had this idea of us being together, and now, after everything with Quincy,

they just want you to move on quickly."

In truth, Eugene had carefully orchestrated everything. He had fed Quincy's story to her parents, exaggerating

the details, and he had used his resources to find out where she was staying so he could corner her. As for his

own parents, they had no objections. After all, the match made perfect sense on paper.

"So, why don't we just put on a show for our parents? They're keeping a close watch on you right now, but after a

while, they'll ease up and stop focusing on us so much," Eugene suggested, pressing his advantage.

Lydia hesitated. It wasn't a bad idea for her, but she couldn't understand why Eugene would go to so much,

trouble. She had just cout of a painful marriage and had no interest in remarrying. Eugene, on the other

hand, surely wanted a family and children someday.

Despite his persuasive arguments, Lydia maintained her reservations. "You're a good person, but | can't be that

selfish. I'll talk to my parents myself Even if | disagree with them,

Especially in her current state, struggling to eat and sleep, the last thing she needed was pressure from her

family. She wasn't sure she could handle it.

"But think about your parents, Lydia. They're getting older, and they're still so worried about you," Eugene said,

changing his approach.

He continued to reason with her until she finally nodded. "All right, we can put on this act for a while and then

see where things go."

Eugene could barely contain his joy. Pretending or not, if Lydia agreed to this, he was confident he could turn it

into something real. As for Quincy...

Eugene's expression darkened with contempt. Everyone respected Quincy purely because of his

connection to Nash. Without that, he was nothing more than an assistant in Nash's shadow.
