Nathan's face went dark.He stared at Claire, hunting for an answer she clearly had no intention of giving.She didn't even turn her head as if her hearing had failed right along with her voice.At this moment, only Grandma Wade deserved her attention.Nathan ground his molars.Fine. Ignore me all you want.Plenty of ways to make her cave eventually.Claire spent a long stretch at Grandma Wade's bedside.No sign of her waking up.Clearly, rushing this wouldn't help. Claire headed to the press conference.She clarified publicly that she'd simply been sick these past few days every wild theory circling online was baseless speculation.She said nothing, though, about the villa scandal Nathan and Vanessa's affair. Nathan, standing beside her, couldn't stay quiet through that gap in the narrative."Sweetheart, thank you.""I've made terrible mistakes. But I intend to correct them, and I'm going to cherish this marriage we've fought so hard to hold onto.""We will never let a marriage of co

"Sorry to disappoint you I haven't gone fully mute after all. My voice is coming back.""But that doesn't change what I've already discovered about this particular medicine, does it?""This isn't just harmful. It's an abortion drug one that does serious, lasting damage to a woman's body.""So that night, Mom, you deliberately forced me to drink this. And Nathan carried it out right alongside you.""If I hadn't specifically dosed Jessica's glass this morning with something that just causes some cramping, I doubt you'd have panicked and knocked her bowl out of her hands like that.""Isn't that right, Mom?"Jessica gasped. Richard's stare snapped hard onto Nathan and Diane."What did you two do?"Nathan, knowing there was no version of this that didn't implicate him, just dropped his head.Only Diane stayed rigid, adopting a stony denial-until-forced posture.So that's it. That bitch Claire orchestrated this entire soup incident just to expose me.Nathan, guilt written all over his face,

Claire Bennett.That name again.Her again.She'd been surfacing in Jonathan Reid's life over and over lately, each time with new shockwaves.Startling. Unpredictable. And this a genuinely bizarre coincidence.It took Jonathan nearly a full minute to absorb it."Is there any chance this list is wrong?""Impossible," Kevin said. "That team signed a full liability waiver. They're staking their entire reputation on this list being accurate."Jonathan pulled a cigarette from the desk drawer and lit it with a sharp snap.Kevin blinked, privately startled.How long has it been since the boss smoked?Because of Cynthia she'd get agitated at the sight of any open flame Jonathan had quietly quit, aside from the rare cigarette here and there. Kevin genuinely couldn't remember the last time he'd seen him touch one. Close to a year, easily.Today's revelation is clearly getting to him.After two drags, Jonathan asked, "Why did she need IVF? The man surnamed Wade wasn't sufficient?"Kevin nearly c
The Billionaire's Secret Heirs: Divorcing the Man Who Betray Chapter 48: Jonathan Discovers Claire Is the IVF Mother
Claire nodded at Pete.That evening, at the Wade estate, the atmosphere hung heavy thunder rolling low, rain lashing the windows.Staff moved through the halls tense and quiet. Every member of the family looked like they were unraveling.The whole household inside and out was in freefall.Stock crashing. Claire missing. Three separate scandals breaking at once, none of them containable no matter how much money got thrown at PR.Richard knew his family had become a target.But there was another possibility, one he couldn't shake: maybe their own rot had simply invited the exposure."Someone's behind this," he said. "Deliberately.""Someone with resources beyond even ours.""Who.""WHO IS IT?"No amount of digging turned up a lead. Every connection he called came back empty.He smashed the study apart in fury.Everything he'd spent decades building reduced to rubble by a handful of scandals in under a week. Unacceptable.Thinking of the exhaustion of the past few days, Richard looked up

Claire froze.What did he just say?Jonathan lifted his teacup, took a slow sip, glanced down for a beat, then looked back up, holding her gaze with total sincerity."The Reid family needs your help.""This is the offer from me personally, and from the entire family behind me."Something stirred in Claire's chest.Everyone in Los Angeles knew what the Reid name meant. Wealthiest man in the city. A conglomerate that shaped the local economy. If Reid Industries so much as shifted its weight, half the city felt it.Anyone who secured the protection or the personal backing of the head of the Reid family could completely rewrite their entire future.Since walking away from the Bennetts, Claire genuinely had no one left to lean on. Only her own instincts and talent had kept her from ending up truly destitute.The offer was tempting. Genuinely tempting.But entangling herself with this man further would be insane.She still carried the one secret that made him dangerous to her.The only reas
