Clark stood for a moment before leaving. On his way back, he couldnât resist calling Michael. âMichael, arrange a medical checkâup for me.â
Michaelâs voice, filled with concern, came through the line. âMr. Sumner, is something wrong? Are you feeling unwell?â
âJust do as I asked. Since when did you start asking so many questions?â Clark snapped, hanging up coldly.
His mood was at an allâtime low, wrestling with the possibility of infertility and the fear that it might be
true.
He pulled over to the side of the road, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself. The checkâup would reveal the truth. There was no way he could be infertile.
And surely, Jordyn wouldnât deceive him!
Upon thinking of Jordyn, Clarkâs gaze hardened. He drove straight to her place.
âClark, what brings you here? Have you eaten?â Jordynâs eyes lit up with delight as she quickly stepped aside to let him in.
Clark entered the living room with a blank expression and sat on the sofa, his cold eyes fixed on Jordynâs face.
Under his gaze, Jordyn grew uneasy, her smile faltering âClark, whatâs wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? Itâs making me nervousâ¦â
âItâs nothing. I just realized I havenât really looked at you closely, so I wanted to take a good look,â Clark replied.
His tone was casual, and Jordynâs cheeks flushed. She instinctively lowered her head. âWhy are you saying things like that all of a sudden? Itâs making me shy.â
Inwardly, she was thrilled. She thought Clarkâs attitude toward her was improving. Once she had the baby, he would fall in love with her.
The thought of him treating her as he did Nyla filled her with excitement.
âDo you still have the prenatal checkâup reports from last time?â Clark asked suddenly.
Jordyn froze at the unexpected question and instinctively looked up at him.
Clark sat on the sofa calmly, looking no different than usual. Yet, Jordyn couldnât shake a nagging sense of unease as she studied him with a probing gaze.
âWhy are you asking about this all of a sudden?â she asked.
Clark replied, âI just want to see them. After all, itâs my child too.â
Jordyn scrutinized him carefully but found nothing revealing in his expression. Pushing her doubts aside, she smiled and said, âTheyâre in the bedroom. Iâll go get them now if you want to see.â

As she turned away, her smile faded, replaced by a blank look.
A growing suspicion gnawed at herâwas Clark beginning to doubt something?
Otherwise, why would he suddenly show interest in the prenatal reports when heâd always been indifferent? Heâd only gone to the hospital with her after sheâd brought it up multiple times.
Jordyn walked to her vanity in the bedroom and retrieved the prenatal reports from the drawer.
As she turned around, she gasped, startled to see Clark silently standing behind her. The reports slipped from her hands, scattering across the floor..
She pressed her hand to her chest, her face pale. âClark, you startled me. You came so quietlyâ¦â
Clarkâs expression remained unchanged. âDid I scare you?â
âOf course exclaimed.
you did! Who wouldnât be startled by someone appearing out of nowhere like that?â Jordyn
She crouched slowly to gather the scattered reports, then stood and handed them to Clark. âHere you go. All the reports from the initial pregnancy test to the followâup checkâups are here.â
