Edmund locked up and gazed into Wendy’s eyes.

“There’s actually something I have never told you.”

Wendy’s heart almost stopped.

She had a hunch that what Edmund was about to say had something to do with Larissa and Kevan.

Wendy had overheard their conversation outside the study last night.

That was why she had rushed to meet Edmund.

At this moment. Wendy suddenly felt foolish.

Edmund and Kevan had the same surname.

Edmund coughed, causing his body to shiver.

me to stay away from Larissa and to not harbor any ill intentions toward her. Still –

He turned to Wendy with a fervent gaze. “The only reason I stayed in Westonia was because of you and our child.

“Wendy, I love you. I wish to live with you and our child. I want to create a happy family with you.”

Edmund’s gaze fell on Wendy’s flat stomach.

Wendy drove to the police station.

Alas, the officer rejected her request.

“Ms. Simmons, you are not the person who led the report. We will only drop charges if the person who filed the

“Something doesn’t add up. Is your friend Kevan Rogers?” The officer flipped through the file.

Although Wendy couldn’t understand why it was Kevan who had reported the case, she nodded. “Yes.”
