Chapter 41
Unfazed, Lindsey held up yet another photo.
It was taken at the door of Chayce’s apartment when Kendra went to see him that day.
In the photo, Chayce was ki*sing her and leading her inside the apartment with his hand on her buttocks.
A crisp sound echoed across the hall.
Benny had slapped Kendra on the face, causing her cheek to swell up instantly.
With no remorse, Benny glared at her with bloodshot eyes.
“How dare you cheat on me?” he asked in a dangerously growl.
“Benny, it’s not like that! She’s lying!” Kendra grabbed Benny’s trouser legs and sobbed pitifully.
“I never cheated on you! The reason why I went to him that day was to discuss something for the engagement party.
I didn’t expect that he’d suddenly drag me into his apartment and take advantage of me.
I managed to escape, so nothing happened between us, I swear! Benny, you have to believe me!”
Kendra was always skilled at acting and lying, and her tearful display of emotion began to shake Benny’s resolve.
“Even if you don’t believe me, you have to-for the sake of the baby in my belly!”
Both Benny and Chayce were stunned by Kendra’s sudden confession.
“You- You’re pregnant?” Benny’s anger quickly turned into shock.
Kendra nodded and said pitifully, “This is our first child together.
You have to believe me.
How could I possibly have any involvement with another man during my pregnancy? We’ve been together for so many years.
Don’t you know who I am? I’d never cheat on you! I love you wholeheartedly.
If you don’t believe me, I- I’ll kill myself!”
As soon as Kendra finished her piece, she tried to run away, but Benny quickly pulled her back.
While he had always simply treated Kendra as a beautiful caregiver, deep down, he also yearned to have another child.
When he heard that Kendra was pregnant, most of the anger in his heart instantly dissipated.
Moreover, Kendra was willing to die if it meant proving herself innocent, which moved him deeply.
Now, he felt inclined to believe her.
Chayce frowned and stared at Kendra.
She once told him that she couldn’t get pregnant because Bennyn had been impotent for a long time now.
In other words, the father of the baby in her belly was very likely to be Chayce himself!
At this point, he knew it’d be impossible for him to marry Lindsey, but now, he had something on Kendra.
She was a vain woman, and she would never admit that the baby was his.
However, a simple paternity test would prove her wrong.
If he played his cards right, he could threaten Kendra with exposing the truth, and she would likely offer him some hush money.
But if Kendra was kicked out of the Stewart family, she would be nothing, and he wouldn’t be able to benefit from her.
Chayce soon straightened out his thoughts.
He took a deep breath and made up his mind.
Chayce made up his mind to help Kendra win Benny’s trust.
“Mr.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Stewart, I… I’m so sorry.
I drank too much that day and mistook Mrs.
Stewart for Lindsey.
It’s all my fault.
Nothing happened between us, I swear.
She just slapped me a few times and then left.
When I sobered up, I regretted it so much!”
As he carefully wove his tale, he made sure to drag Lindsey’s name through the mud.
“Lindsey always told me that she hated Mrs.
Stewart and that she’d kick her out of the family sooner or later.
I never imagined she would stoop to the level of spying!”
Now, he loathed Lindsey.
That woman not only snapped photos of him fooling around with other women but had the audacity to broadcast them to the world.
It was utterly humiliating! However, since the truth had come to Light, he couldn’t deny it anymore.
He could only do what he could to drive a wedge between Benny and Lindsey.
Kendra soon caught on to what Chayce was up to and quickly joined in.
“See, Benny? I would never betray you!”
