The Ex-Wife's Secret (Jonathan and Teresa) novel Chapter 415

Chapter 415

“Hey, Teresa, are you putting on a little weight?” Benny eyed her belly.

A cold sweat broke out on Teresa’s back, but she kept her cool. “Really?

Benny took his time sipping his drink, set the glass down, and let out heading back to Nareigh.”

Teresa went silent instantly.

Miriam and Edward exchanged a look, wondering what that was supposed

Fueled by alcohol, Benny let out a burp. “Jonathan got drunk a few days ag woman was pregnant with his kid. I’m guessing he meant you.”

Miriam clicked her tongue and leaned closer to Teresa’s ear. “Come on. Tell me the truth. Is it real? Could it be…”

Teresa stayed calm. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to tell Miriam, but Edward was right there, his ears practically twitching to listen in.

With Benny and Edward acting like a couple of spies, Teresa just laughed at them. “He’s been gone from Nareigh for ages. We haven’t even seen each other. How could I possibly be pregnant with his kid?”

Miriam frowned. “That doesn’t make sense. Jonathan’s not the type to have another woman.”

“We already agreed to start over. If he’s found someone else, so be it.” Teresa kept her head down, picking at her food with her fork.

Benny sighed. “Teresa, we’re all friends here. If you really are pregnant, just say it. I promise I’ll keep it a secret.”

Teresa balled up a napkin and tossed it at Benny. “You must be drunk. How many times do I have to say it? I’m not pregnant!”

“Have you ever thought about it? Jonathan’s running such a big company/If he doesn’t have a kid, all that hard work will just end up in someone else’s hands,” Benny reminded.

Teresa paused, her hand still holding her fork.

Benny’s gaze grew even more curious as he studied Teresa.

Miriam quickly jumped in to help. “Jonathan’s only thirty and loaded. He’s got plenty of time to have kids. Come on. Let’s eat. Teresa is treating. Don’t ruin the mood.”

“Benny, come on. Let me have a drink with you.” Edward poured some beer and raised his glass.

Benny grinned. “Young man, do you know how long it’s been since I had a beer? Not since college, I think.”

Miriam rolled her eyes at Benny. “You talk like you’re ancient. Maybe it’s time you settled down instead of always chasing after girls.”

Benny laughed. “I’m not that dumb. If I got married early, I’d lose all my freedom.”

Once Benny left, Edward, totally hammered, collapsed onto the seat in Miriam’s car. Luckily, Miriam was sober and could drive.

With no one else around, Miriam finally asked/Teresa openly, “Alright, spill. Are you actually pregnant or not?”

“No,” Teresa answered, but she didn’t sound too sure.

“Oh, come on. Don’t tell me you really are… pregnant again?” Miriam asked.

Hearing those last words, Edward suddenly snapped awake, shot up like a spring, and blurted out, “Pregnant? Wait, Am I gonna be a daus
