Chapter 318 Her Secret

Lucia's heart tightened.She immediately figured out what the doctor meant.

The doctor mistook Paul and her for a couple and advised her to keep the child.

However, such a remark would expose her pregnancy to Paul.

Lucia stiffened and fell into a daze.

The doctor took Lucia's silence for reluctance.

With a smile, she added, "It's up to you."

She smiled at Lucia, felt the awkward atmosphere, and winked at her colleague.

They then walked away.

Standing there, Lucia didn't dare to face Paul.

She had just decided to keep it a secret, not expecting it to be exposed so soon.

A moment later, she took a deep breath and turned to look at Paul.

The man was wrinkling his brows.

His face looked more serious than usual.

In a soft voice, he asked, "You're...pregnant?"

Lucia bit her lips, knowing that she could no longer keep it a secret.

Dropping her head, she nodded.

"Yeah."

Paul frowned and continued to ask, "The father is August?"

Keeping her head low, she bit the bullet.

"Yeah."

At this point, she admitted everything.

The air seemed to stand still.

Neither of them talked.
