Planned Baby novel Chapter 20

Today is the most awaited press conference of LHI.

“Are you ready?”

I smirked at Ulie. “Of course.”

He offers his hand to me, and I gladly accepted it.

Aside from Ulie and me, Nick will also be joining the press conference along with the legal representative from CIC and LHI.

Ellie's family is with us. They will stay in the waiting room beside the hall where the press conference will happen. They will watch the live press conference there. And they will take care of the twins for the time being.

Jace opens the hall for us. Many reporters from all TV networks, newspapers, radio, and magazines attended.

The non-stop flashing camera started as soon as they saw us entering the hall.

Jace stays beside the stage while we continue to go to our designated seats.

A legal representative of LHI gave the opening statement. He told the press that they are only allowed to ask questions after we answer the issue.

He gave them two main issues that we will answer.

1. Is Mr. Ulysses Kade Escarrer the father of Ms. Penelope Quinn Cabello's children?

2. Did LHI choose Ms. Cabello’s company for the LHI resort project because of her relationship with Mr. Escarrer?

He then called Ulie to speak.

“Regarding the twins of Ms. Cabello, yes, it’s true. I am the father of the twins.” Ulie said in a formal and serious voice.

The flashing camera becomes more aggressive.

“If you are the father of Ms. Cabello’s twins, is it true that she is the reason why you cancel your engagement with Ms. Hadley Adelson?” One of the reporters ask.

“No. The reason why I cancel my engagement with Ms. Adelson is because of my twins and not because of Ellie. We don’t have a relationship at that time.” He explained.

“If you don’t have any relationship with Ms. Cabello, then how come that you are the father of her children?” The reporter follows up question.

“Me, being the father of her children is none of your business.” Ulie coldly said.

The reporter flinched.

“We will have a party for the twins. That will be their official appearance to the public. They will be introduced as Escarrer future successors.”

The reporters murmur and start flashing their cameras because of Ulie’s announcement.

“Mr. Escarrer, you said a while ago that you and Ms. Cabello don’t have a relationship when you cancel your engagement with Ms. Adelson. Do you mean that now you are in a relationship with Ms. Cabello?” Another reporter asks.

My eyes widen. I didn’t realize it then. The reporter got the point. I need to clear that out.

“No, we don’t have a relationship then until now,” I answer to clarify the issue.
