Keira saw that James was almost jumping with eagerness, so she raised her eyebrows and nodded. "What's the matter? Can't we go?"
Of course, they couldn't go.
James was about to say this when Ellis suddenly came over. "Keera, there's something I need to discuss with you. Come here for a moment."
Keira nodded and followed Ellis to the side. "What's up?"
Ellis asked, "How has Mary been recently?"
Keira said, "She's been pretty good."
Ellis's expression faltered for a moment.
The child really was his.
That was something he hadn't anticipated, and he recalled how Mary had tried to keep the child because she loved its father.
He believed that Mary had feelings for him.
He thought Mary would resent him because of the child and thus avoided him, but if she was doing quite well, did that mean she no longer loved him now?
Ellis looked down and let out a bitter smile.
Even if it was true, he had it coming.
