C46 A Proof That He Won

The two of them entered Ben’s office. Ben was in an exceptionally good mood. The image of Mike and Samantha standing silently in the corridor replayed repeatedly in his mind. To him, it was proof that he had won.

As they sat down to eat, he looked at Samantha’s stomach and smiled. “Hurry and eat,” he said happily. “My son must be starving.”

Samantha raised her eyes and looked at him. Her face remained expressionless. “How do you know it will be a boy?” she asked calmly.

Ben laughed. “It has to be a boy.” He leaned back proudly. “One day he will inherit everything and run this company.”

Samantha lowered her eyes. Her expression grew slightly gloomy. Ben never noticed. She slowly continued eating while thoughts filled her mind.

What if I give birth to a girl? Would he still love the child? Or would he treat her as another disappointment?

After everything she had suffered, the only thing that truly mattered to her now was the baby growing inside her. Boy or girl. Rich or poor. It would still be her child.
