After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Sidney gave her a deep look before turning around and heading into the back. Moments later, he returned, his work uniform removed, and without a word, he took hold of Maria's hand, leading her out of the coffee house. Maria glanced at his fingers, her gaze shifting to his face as she asked curiously, "Where are you taking me?"

"We're going to the hospital," Sidney replied.

He didn't believe a word she said, so he wanted to take her to get a proper check-up. If she was truly pregnant, then they could discuss what to do about the baby.

Maria's smile deepened.

Suddenly, she pulled her hand away, still smiling as she said, "Of course I was lying. I'm not pregnant."

Sidney's expression darkened instantly. He stepped forward, grabbing her shoulders, his voice cold as he asked, "Do you think it's fun to mess with me like this?"

The slight pain from his grip didn't seem to bother Maria at all.

She didn't even flinch as she held her coffee, saying calmly, "Yes, it's fun."

A wave of anger surged inside Sidney, his eyes burning with fury.

"Maria, do you have no shame? I don't like you at all! You clinging to me like this only makes me see how pathetic you are!"
