Chapter 196
Inside was a paternity lent report confirming Anders as the father of Orin, along with a short note.
Anders, Orin is your son. He will stay with you for a while. After Im done with my work, FIl come and pick him up. Elle
When Anders saw the handwriting on the note and the signature at the bottom, he was completely stunned.
Elle was his girlfriend from the days just after he’d moved abroad. They’d dated for six months, and lived together for that time too. But. Anders couldn’t shake off his feelings for Clam, Clara’s name haunted his dreams, and he felt it wasn’t fair to Elle. So, he ended things. Elle had left without a fight, and Anders had been clueless about her pregnancy
Now, how could he face Clama? His eyes reddened as he looked at her, “Clam, I don’t know how this happened. Listen to me, you’ve always been the one I wanted This child was on accident.”
Clara understood it all now Her emotions were indescribable, tumbling from elation to despair. Perhaps happiness was never meant for her
With a small smile, she said, “Anders, the child may be an accident, but he’s innocent. I hope you’ll be a responsible father Let’s just call today a farce, okay? I should go.”
She turned and walked away, unwilling to linger. She couldn’t bear the stares any longer.
With lan, she’d been treated like a sugar baby. Just as she was ready to open her heart to something new, it had ended before it began She was always the one left behind.
Clara raced out of the hall, driving off alone.
Anders left the child with his parents and went after Clara. The room buzzed with speculation.
Sasha’s anger peaked amidst the chatter. She couldn’t believe this was mere coincidence. Someone had stirred the pot. And she knew exactly who

Fury propelled her outside, just in time to see Chase enter a private room next door. Sasha bit back a cu
it had to be you!” She kicked open the door and immediately spotted lan sitting in the main seat. lan was leisurely chatting with someone, looking smug and satisfied
Without a second thought, Sasha grabbed a glass of wine from a nearby table and hurled it at him. “lan, you bastard, can’t you stand to see Clara happy? Wasn’t she good to you for three years? You ruined the happiness she finally found. Have you no decency?”
Sasha spoke with tears streaming down her face. She felt sorry for Clam, feeling that Clara deserved better for loving lan so much. Chase grabbed her wrist, trying to defuse the situation. No one dared confront lan like this, except Clara. He feared what lan might do to Sasha in his wrath
“Why can’t we talk this out? No violence please. It’s not like lan planned it. Isn’t it better for Clara to find out about the child sooner rather than later?”
“Bullshit! Do you have any idea how upset Clara was? In front of all those people, he just dumps a kid on Anders. You think that’s for Clara’s sake? If you cared about her, you wouldn’t have ignored her when she was bleeding out”
At those words, the ever–composed lan shot up, rage in his eyes as he glared at Sasha, “What did you say? What bleeding?”
