GoodNovelChapter 299 Angela was shocked. Her mind went blank for several seconds, and all she could hear was a discordant hum of static.
It was terrifying-ever since she had fallen into the water, her hearing hadn't been working properly.
"What?" Dexter asked in a cold, measured tone. "What baby?" He immediately reached out to hold Angela, afraid that the shock might cause her further harm.
Amber sobbed incoherently, her tears tugging at one's heart. "We... We had done it before... And we didn't..." "Shut your mouth!" Zack shouted, his face ashen and his voice trembling uncontrollably. "I was so drunk that night that I could barely stand. How could anything have happened?" That incident had occurred two months ago at a birthday party in their mutual circle. Both of them had attended, and the alcohol that night had been unusually strong.
Zack had only had three drinks before he'd started feeling dizzy, and his buddies had mocked him for his poor tolerance.
Thereafter, a waiter had helped him into a hotel room, but when he'd woken up, he'd found a naked Amber beside him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt that time, Zack's mind had been completely muddled. He'd thought that if Angela found out, his life would be ruined for sure.
But then he'd reasoned that, given how drunk he'd been, nothing could have possibly happened.
So he'd calmed down, gotten dressed, and waited for Amber to wake up.
He'd later told her that nothing untoward had happened that night, and Amber had believed him.
But to his shock, now, two months later, Amber was saying such terrifying things.
"I don't really know how it happened, but I've never... had that kind of experience. We just slept in the sbed- yet you can't be 100% sure you didn't do anything, can you? Just how unlucky am I to becpregnant right after my first time? If my family ever finds out, I'll be beaten to death." As Amber spoke, she suddenly crouched down and burst into uncontrollable sobs.
Her voice was so mournful that it broke Angela's heart.
"Ms. Graham, how do you explain this? Amber is " "Joanne," Angela called out coldly, summoning the person she trusted most.
Like a shadow, Joanne appeared without a word and immediately dragged Elena away by force.
Elena, however, growled in protest, "Angela, if you don't handle this properly, your reputation is going to be ruined!" Indeed, if Angela were even slightly biased or failed to uncover the full truth, it would be a huge blow-not only to the two young people involved but also to the Graham and Sheppard families.
"Ms. Sheppard, please get up," Angela said, doing her best to suppress her anxiety as she stepped forward to help Amber.
Dexter followed silently, pushing her IV stand and maintaining a protective stance.
"Angela, I'm not lying. I took three pregnancy tests... What should I do?" Amber lifted her head, exposing a face full of tears, making it impossible not to feel bad for her.
"Angie, you have to believe me. I really couldn't have... That night, I—" "You. Shut up and get lost for now." Angela impatiently glared at Zack. "I'll deal with you later." Amber also cast a cautious, sorrowful, and pained look at Zack.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter Angela comforted Amber thoroughly, she got a doctor to run checks on the latter. And sure enough, she was pregnant.
Angela's heart pounded wildly. It was even more shocking than if she herself were pregnant.
For once, Amber stopped crying; she clutched the lab report and sat sat in a daze. She was only 21 years old, just wa aljunior in college studying fine arts.
She was supposed to beca great artist in the future. She shouldn't have to waste her youth on a mess like this.
"What should we do?" For the first time, Angèla felt completely lost it's been more than two months. Would the hotel still have the surveillance footage? Can we still investigate?" "I've already asked Rocky to look into it. We'll have to wait and see what he finds," Dexter answered.
Angela sighed again. "If Zack really is responsible, then he's completely screwed. I'll have to beat him half to death."
She then explained the situation to Amber, assuring her that they would uncover the truth within three days and give her a proper explanation. After crying her heart out and finally calming down, Amber left with Elena.
