Chapter 391 I Know You’re Pregnant

“Hehe, you’ve figured it out.” Emily playfully twirled a strand of her hair before adopting a serious tone.

“Actually, you can look at this matter from a multifaceted perspective. For example, you own a small

company now. While you may not be filthy rich, you don’t have to worry about your basic needs and

you can afford to hire help and provide for your children. But now, imagine an ordinary working woman

from an average family background, education, and job skills, who’s in the midst of building her career.

For her, being a single mother presents a tremendous challenge. Besides, don’t you find nurturing a

baby into an adult incredibly rewarding?”

Chloe’s heart softened as she listened, and her eyes gleamed. “It’s not just about finding fulfillment. It’s

about finding redemption.”

With Emily’s support, Chloe suddenly saw things in a new light. Since she could not bear to let go, then

she would stay. After all, she had the means to provide for the child. Joseph was Joseph, and she was

herself. Regardless of what transpired between the adults, the child was

innocent.

Witnessing Chloe’s radiant smile, Emily leaned in curiously and asked, “Are you pregnant?”

Chloe blinked calmly. “No.”

Knowing Emily’s inability to keep secrets and wanting to avoid another slip of the tongue, she chose

not to disclose anything.

“Why are you suddenly asking about this, then?” Emily questioned.

“I saw a couple on the street who were in tears because of a baby, so I was curious,” Chloe replied.

“Oh,” Emily replied.

Meanwhile, the waiter served the dishes, capturing Emily’s attention. She could not help but divert her

focus to the delectable food before her.

After parting ways with Chloe, Tyson returned to the station and spotted Noah.

Tyson’s colleagues handed him the inspection report, and with a quick glance, he intended to head

back to his office. However, out of the corner of his eye, he unexpectedly spotted a report in Noah’s

hands, causing his expression to change.

“What are you doing with Chloe’s report?” he asked.

His colleague seemed puzzled. “He said he was a friend of Chloe’s…”

“This is someone’s private information. Don’t you understand?” Tyson’s tone turned stern.

“Sir… I-I won’t do it again,” the colleague responded, realizing her mistake and lowering her head.

Noah had such a gentle demeanor that she thought it would be fine to pass him the

report. In the past, Tyson did not pay attention to such matters, but this time seemed

different.

“Sorry, I didn’t know about this rule.” Noah returned Chloe’s report, a hint of guilt on his refined face. “I

haven’t read it yet. Please take it back.”

Seeing his amiable attitude, Tyson felt a hint of embarrassment. “It’s okay.”

Noah offered a faint smile and went away with his own report.

Some time passed, and while Tyson was going through the suspect’s file, Joseph called to inquire

about the progress of the case. They exchanged the information they had gathered during their

investigations and chatted for a while.

Then, Joseph shifted the topic and asked, “Does anesthesia harm the body?”

Tyson paused for a moment. “Not really, but why are you asking? Is it because of Chloe?”

Joseph’s gaze darkened and he evaded the question. “Why? Can’t I ask?”

“Well… Since you two have broken up, you should move on. The road ahead is still long,” Tyson

advised.

Joseph’s intuition kicked in, detecting a hidden message in Tyson’s words. His voice grew low and

intense as he questioned, “What are you trying to tell me?”

Tyson did not dare to say anything and quickly found an excuse to end the call.

Joseph frowned deeply upon hearing the call-end tone from the other end.

“Lucas.”

“Yes, Mr. Joseph?”

“Go to the station and bring me Chloe’s blood test report.”

After finishing their meal, Chloe and Emily returned to the office. On the way, she bought some folic

acid supplements.

Not long after Chloe started working, Noah came to find her. Looking at the tall and poised young man

in surprise, she asked, “Why are you here?”

Noah walked in, his gaze sweeping over the folic acid tablets on the table, and his amber eyes briefly

turned cold. Chloe also noticed the folic acid out on the table and quickly opened a drawer to put the

bottle inside.

“I know you’re pregnant.”

Chloe did not say anything in return.

“Is it Joseph’s?”
