CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

"To divorce me, you might even lie that the child is Scott's," Nash replied.

Nina could count the times she had lied to Nash on one hand. If it was not necessary, she would not lie to him. And she never claimed the child was Scott's. She never admitted that. Turning to him, she countered, "If it's not Scott's, then could it be yours?"

"Who exactly is Zac?" Nash's expression turned serious. "Nina, is this person real, or did you make him up to provoke me?"

He had searched extensively, investigating everyone she had ever known, but found no trace of anyone named Zac. It could have been a nickname, but even then, there were no leads.
