"How could she and | possibly have a kid?" Dave never once glanced towards Nancy, his voice laced with
disbelief. "You believe whatever she says, but when it comes to me, your own son, your own grandson, you don't
buy a single word?"
Of course, the Carters weren't fools to be easily led by the nose.
Believing Nancy was just a means to an end - to break Dave and Catherine apart.
"Nancy wouldn't fryou with something like this," Norman stated firmly, with Jane adding, "We can believe
you too, but do you have any proof that the child isn't yours?"
Dave replied coolly, "When a DNA test is possible."
The Carters shared an unspoken agreement, with Jane suggesting, "We can wait. But let's wait until the
pregnancy is more stable, around four or five months. During this time, you need to take responsibility. If it turns
out the child isn't yours, we won't force you." A realization hit Dave.
Nancy's pregnancy must have been part of her schfrom that night. Without this child, he could have

Dealing with Merritt was simpler; as long as his story matched Nancy's, the lack of surveillance footage wouldn't
matter.
But now, with Nancy pregnant, if anything happened to the child under his watch, he'd struggle to clear his
name.
It was indeed a clever plot.

Growing up with the Carters, how could Nancy be anything but cunning?
"Why should | take responsibility when we don't even know who the father is, let alone prove it's mine?"

Nancy, who had been silent, followed him out.
Just as Dave was about to get into his car, Nancy wrapped her arms around him from behind.
"Let go!"
Dave's voice was as cold as the midwinter air.
Nancy tightened her grip, burying her face in his back and sobbing.
Dave tried to pull away without using too much force, but he couldn't free himself. His expression hardened.
"Nancy, don't use up the last bit of brotherly affection I have for you."
"I'm not completely out of options."
Nancy's grip remained firm, her voice quivering with grievance.
"Dai, the child is truly yours. If you don't believe me, | have a video to prove it."
"That night, | recorded a video."
After dinner, Catherine washed the dishes, a task she previously avoided but now found occasionally enjoyable.
Being with the one you love made everything seem fun.

Fuming and dizzier than before, she cursed under her breath, struggling to stay conscious as she grabbed her

She tried to call Dave, but the call went unanswered.
With her vision blurring, she dialed Jane, but just then, another call cthrough.
