The young woman was stumped, taken aback by the man's stern manner.
"No, the baby is yours! Caspian, are you going to abandon your child?"
Duh, is she being serious? I don't think she even knows who the father of the child is.
"Just drop the act! Aren't you getting tired?" Caspian said exasperatedly.
No, of course not. What else can I do if I really quit bothering him?lt's impossible for me to go back to the brothel in the residential compound now that I'm pregnant.
"Caspian, please just take me in. I will wash your clothes and cook for you in return," the young woman knelt before him all of a sudden.
Caspian was flustered by her sudden move, more so when the onlookers started gesticulating.
"Get up now, you're making a scene." Caspian frantically tried to help her up but to no avail.
The young lady just would not budge.
"Hey, what do you think is happening to Caspian? I thought he's together with Jessica? Why is he getting involved with another woman?"
"Oh, you still have no idea. Jessica has broken up with him, and I heard it's because of the young woman out there."
A few employees were gossiping outside the office after seeing Lisa making a scene.
Larry put down the documents in his hands and walked out of his office. Sure enough, he was greeted by the woeful show that Lisa was trying to pull.
How dare she make a scene at my office!
Larry clenched his fist tight and made his way over. Pointing at the young woman who was still kneeling, he shouted, "What on earth are you guys doing?"
Lisa stopped sobbing right away.
"Caspian is dumping me!" The young woman shrieked.
