CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery
Chapter 1410

Tiffany took a step back, holding her phone high above her head, mouthing, "Pay up."

In that moment, Mrs. Perez accidentally bumped into the bedside kettle. It crashed to the floor, sending scalding water splashing everywhere, hitting both of them.

"Ah! Did you do that on purpose?" Tiffany hissed, seething with anger.

With no one else in the room, Tiffany was ready to vent her anger, but just then, the door swung open.

Lydia entered with the doctor, stopping in her tracks when she saw Tiffany. She then glanced at Mrs. Perez lying on the bed. A complex mix of feelings washed over Lydia, though she had long since stopped being surprised by Mrs. Perez's actions. "My daughter-in-law!" Mrs. Perez called out frantically, "Grab her phone! She's live-streaming, trying to ruin our family!"

Hearing Mrs. Perez call Lydia daughter-in-law made Tiffany's expression twist with resentment.

Why did Lydia deserve that title?

Mrs. Perez had once called her daughter-in-law too, but now she was the one being treated with contempt, told to stay away.

Yes, she wanted wealth, wanted to marry into a rich family, but she wouldn't have fixated on Quincy if Mrs. Perez hadn't pursued her first.

Lydia, regaining her composure, snatched Tiffany's phone, saw the small number of viewers, and immediately ended the stream, tossing the phone aside.

"Tiffany, I haven't even gotten around to settling things with you, and here you are, forcing the issue. Perfect. We'll handle both old and new debts right now." Lydia fixed her with a cold stare.

Tiffany could have taken so many other paths, yet she had chosen the one that everyone despised most.

"What do you have to settle with me? She's the one who did all those things. She's the one who targeted you and caused your miscarriage!" Tiffany tried to shift the blame, instinctively pointing fingers at Mrs. Perez. But her petty tricks might work on Mrs. Perez but they wouldn't fool Quincy or Lydia.

As Lydia turned to leave, Mrs. Perez called after her, tears streaming down her face. "I was wrong. I should never have treated you so terribly or put you through all that. Can you forgive me, Lydia?" Lydia remained silent.

She could overlook the mistreatment, but she would never forget the child she had lost. That wound was a thorn embedded deep in her heart, one that would never come out.

"I became this sick so suddenly. It

must be karma," Mrs. Perez continued, her tone pleading. "You and Quiney live a good life together. I won't interfere anymore. When the baby is born, just let me see them once. That's all I ask."

Lydia finally nodded. "Of course. Rest well, Mrs. Perez"

She had come to the hospital because Quincy was busy

discussing honeymoon plans with her parents. While he was occupied, she had arranged a consultation with an international specialist to

discuss Mrs. Perez She

hadn't expected to walk in on a

scene like this.

It was clear Mrs. Perez was truly remorseful now, but it was far too late. From now on, they would simply live separate lives.

As Lydia left, Mrs. Perez's tears kept flowing, and the words "Mrs. Perez" echoed painfully in her mind, waves of regret washing over her. She

.n

could still remember the waves

early days

when Lydia had first met her calling her "Mom" so sweetly.

But she had destroyed that sweetness herself and she had no one else to blame.
