Chapter 233 She had always believed he had violated her when she was drunk, yet his denial threw her certainty into disarray.
Jayleen maintained her gaze on Selah, reassuring her softly, "Miss Potter, regardless of what others may assert, we won't entertain those claims.
But it's Andrew.
He's your husband.
No man would lie about being cheated.
It's crucial for you to clarify matters to prevent misunderstandings like these.
What about a paternity test?" Observing Selah's flustered and hesitant demeanor, murmurs rippled through the crowd.
"Selah is fearful.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe lacks the courage for the paternity test!" "It appears Andrew's claims hold truth.

Lindsey discerned the trap laid by Jayleen and, fortunately, had cprepared to counter it. Lindsey remained composed, her face adorned with a gentle smile.
She said, "We've already conducted a paternity test.
As she spoke, Lindsey produced a document from her bag and displayed it for everyone to see.
"Here's the result that cout, certified by the most reputable testing center.
The findings are pretty clear, so I don't think there's much else I need to add.
" Curious, the crowd gathered to inspect the paper, confirming that Andrew was indeed the biological father of Selah's child.
Selah, visibly relieved, clutched Lindsey's arm, whispering, "When did the result cout? Why didn't you tellearlier?" Lindsey had encouraged Selah to get a paternity test done as soon as the accusations were made public.
But the result had not cout yet.
Luckily...

It was all so rushed that I didn't have a chance to tell you.
Hearing Lindsey's explanation, Selah nodded.
Earlier today, she and Lindsey had agreed to meet up.
Lindsey had arrived just in time, and they had hastily taken a taxi to the Vincent's villa.
The taxi driver, recognizing Selah, had engaged her in conversation throughout the journey, leaving no opportunity for Lindsey to share the news.

Isn't it somewhat irresponsible to let such information circulate without confirmation, leading to misunderstandings?" Everyone looked at Jayleen.
Jayleen's face turned slightly pale.
She bit her lip but managed to maintain a composed smile and said, "Inever believed it myself and didn't plan to bring it up. I only spoke because everyone insisted on knowing the truth.
Even if it turned out to be baseless, it was Andrew who spread the rumors.
After all, who would expect a man of his stature to publicly defhis wife and confess to being betrayed?
Moreover, I couldn't just independently confirm the paternity test without the involved party's E permission. " The crowd found Jayleen's explanation logical and nodded in agreement.
Jayleen's lips curved slightly as she continued, "And... Not only did m Not receive a recording, but also nude photos of Selah. I was told they would be posted online.
That was why I decided not to sign the contract with Miss Potter.
