Chapter 1773: Chapter 1873

“Sir, I’m sorry.

I’m truly sorry, but I’m innocent.

This was all orchestrated by Alexandria.

”

“That’s absurd!” Alexandria snapped back instantly.

“You coerced me!”

Her eyes welled with tears as she turned to me, pleading, “Caleb, please believe me.

I really am innocent…”

I remained silent, observing the escalating blame game alongside Debra.

The tension grew as the accused man became increasingly desperate.

“That’s a lie! You approached me, wanting a child.

At first, I hesitated, but you blackmailed me, threatening my parents’ lives.

”

Collapsing to his knees, he implored again, “Sir, please believe me.

I deeply regret this.

Please forgive me.

”

Watching the man quake with fear, Alexandria was visibly infuriated yet maintained her stance.

“Caleb, even if these photos are accurate, the child I’m carrying is yours.

Remember, you had Carlos conduct a paternity test? The results are right there.

You can’t just abandon me and our baby!”

With that, Alexandria turned her fury towards Debra, taunting her venomously, “You’re the shameless one.

If you hadn’t clung to Caleb, he would never consider leaving my child fatherless.

You’re a mother too.

How can you be so heartless? Why are you trying to steal the father of my child before it’s even born?”

Debra’s POV:

I froze for a moment, caught off guard by Alexandria’s sudden tirade.

Hadn’t they just been blaming each other? Why drag me into this now?

Yet, Alexandria continued her verbal assault, growing more intense by the second.

“It’s all your fault.

You’re a curse, bringing misfortune everywhere you go!”

I could only frown in silence.

Even as the biological father of her child was ushered into the room, Alexandria seemed unperturbed enough to continue her attack on me.

Did she genuinely believe that my departure, spurred by jealousy, would leave her as Caleb’s only option?

A laugh escaped me before I responded calmly, “A curse, am I? Well, currently, I’m the one with Caleb.

And you? You should be clear about who the father of your child really is, right?”

A flicker of panic crossed Alexandria’s face, but she retorted stubbornly, “Of course it’s Caleb!”

I was rendered utterly speechless.

Initially, I thought Alexandria was merely malicious, but her actions revealed a level of foolishness I hadn’t anticipated.

Instead of reacting with anger, I responded with a grin, “If you persist in using this unknown child to manipulate Caleb, it will end badly for you.

Consider this carefully.

”

Unfazed, Alexandria appeared to believe that the lack of definitive proof regarding the child’s paternity bolstered her confidence.

She declared haughtily, “Mark my words, if you and Caleb don’t get a divorce and he doesn’t marry me soon, I’ll take this public.

Even at the cost of my own reputation, I’ll ensure my child has a Legitimate status.

”

Her threats bordered on comical.

Glancing at Alexandria’s abdomen, I remarked with a chuckle, “To prove that child isn’t Caleb’s, I wouldn’t even need a paternity test.

Any competent doctor could determine the precise stage of pregnancy with a B Ultrasound.

”

At my words, a flicker of fear crossed Alexandria’s face.

With a scornful smile, I pressed on, “Unless I’m mistaken, Caleb was staying in the witch clan by the time you conceived, right?”

Her complexion blanched, and her fingers clutching the quilt began to tremble.

Seeing her visibly shaken by my assertion, I added, “If you consent to having a paternity test done between your child and that man, proving no connection to Caleb, and vow to leave our lives undisturbed, I’ll act as though none of this ever transpired.
