Chapter 20 Hayden Was Kidnapped

Right as she voiced her inquiry, she thought, Oh, silly me, what was I expecting?

Colton stared at her without answering the question. He simply countered, “Miss Lisa, don’t you even have the slightest idea as to who your son’s biological father is?”

Judging by her expression, she was obviously regretting asking the question in the heat of the moment. As her excitement waned, her face began to redden. She stammered, “I-I mean, it was a thoughtless question. Of course I know who his father is.”

“Oh?” Colton blurted with his voice pressed. With that, he squinted his eyes. With an increased volume and a somewhat teasing tone, he smilingly questioned, “Then who’s the boy’s father?”

Withdrawing her gaze, she attempted to speak in a calm manner. “That has nothing to do with you, does it?”

She bit her lips. How did this happen? Why would anyone want to kidnap my son? She never felt as helpless as she was now.
