CEO’s Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Chapter 1389

Chapter 1389

Mrs. Perez panicked. All Quincy's recent concessions had been because he thought she was sick. If he discovered

the whole truth, it would likely end in a huge fallout, and he would probably go straight back to Lydia.

Her eyes went dark just thinking about it. "Quincy, please, letexplain."

"What is there to explain? The facts are right here. Mom, you're not a child anymore," Quincy replied,

exasperated. "How could you use something like this as a joke?"

The diagnosis was clear on her chart, and he had even consulted specialists who said this illness couldn't be

ignored. Surgery and treatment now could at least give her a good quality of life, but if delayed, even surgery

might only keep her bedridden. He couldn't bring himself to ignore her condition.

"But | did it for your own good! If you'd just letworry a little less, | wouldn't have had to lie," Mrs. Perez

insisted, realizing her explanations weren't working. She decided to pull out the "mother's love" card, hoping to

pressure him like she always did.

She went on and on, but instead of blowing up as she had expected, Quincy simply stood by the bed, watching

her with a sadness that pierced deeper than any argument. "Mom, you've already gotten everything you wanted,

haven't you? Just follow the doctor's advice and start treatment, please."

It was only then that it dawned on her that Quincy knew she hadn't had the surgery but didn't realize she wasn't

sick at all. Well, that worked in her favor. She could keep using this excuse to make him back down.

Clearing her throat, she said, "Fine. But I'll only start treatment once you bringthe finalized divorce papers."

"We've already filed for divorce and are just in the waiting period," Quincy explained patiently. He had to tread

lightly. If she got upset, she would completely disregard her own health.

"If I don't see those papers, | can't put my mind at ease, and | won't feel motivated to get treatment," she

insisted.

"If that's how it is, then | might as well remarry Lydia," Quincy retorted, backed into a corner. "You know your

health condition well and you've been in and out of the hospital for all these tests. If you don't start treatment,

you won't have much

tleft."

If she didn't have long left, then why was he even trying to appease her?

Mrs. Perez froze. She was stunned. Her go-to tactic had never failed her before. Why was it suddenly useless?

If those two got back together and had a child, Lydia would certainly be more guarded after what happened last

time. She would have no choice but to sit back and watch Lydia carry the pregnancy to term.

While a baby in the womb might just be an embryo, once born, it would be a real person. No matter how much

she despised Lydia, she couldn't bring herself to be that ruthless.

"Quincy, I'm your mother!"

"I know. If you weren't, | wouldn't still be here begging you to start treatment," he replied, unwavering.

In the end, she had to relent. "Fine, I'll agree to treatment but only if you promise to cut ties with Lydia for

good. If | find out you two are

meeting, I'll stop the treatment

immediately."

Her words sounded reasonable enough, but as soon as Quincy left, the doctor cin and asked, "So, are you

really going to start the treatment, or was that just for show?"
