My Baby’s Daddy

Chapter 1986

When the TV showed the special highlight from the chess tournament, Jared scrolled through it with curiosity.

Suddenly, he seemed to have seen something. His eyes widened as he stared at a name.

Ellen? Why is her name on the list? Jared knew there was no mistake. It was Ellen’s name. At that moment, he

returned to his senses and quickly clicked on her name to rewatch her match.

When the screen switched scenes, Ellen’s beautiful face unfolded right before his eyes. Looking at her, he stood up

in bewilderment. He couldn’t believe he would find Ellen, the woman who had disappeared for one and a half years,

this way.

Ellen had changed a lot. Jared could tell that she was more mature. At the match, she wasn’t wearing anything

classy, sporting a plain turtleneck, looking sharp. When the camera zoomed in on her, she didn’t cower away,

looking like a porcelain doll.

Immediately, Jared grabbed his phone and dialed Stanley’s number. “Stanley.”

“Yes, Mr. Presgrave.” “How did you find her?” “It looks like you have watched it. Except for work, I love to play

chess. Hence, I knew a chess tournament would be right around the corner. Since I have nothing much to do, I

watched the video and saw Miss Reiss.”

“Is… Is she still in Averna? Which hotel is she at?” Jared suppressed the excitement in his voice.

“Are you going to see her tonight, Mr. Presgrave? It’s already 10.00PM, though. Why don’t we meet her tomorrow

morning?” Stanley suggested.

“Do you think I can wait until tomorrow? I want to know which hotel she stays in within ten minutes.” Jared wouldn’t

give him the time to slack off.

Hearing his words, Stanley shook his head and smiled. Fortunately, he had done some. research beforehand and

replied, “I have already checked that. I’ll send the address to you right away. I’m sure you know Miss Reiss is the

champion, right?”

“What?” ‘Don’t you know about it?” “Really?” “Yes. I just watched her last match. It was amazing. She is truly gifted

as a chess player.”

When Jared heard his words, he felt a pang in his chest. Does that mean more men will like her? Will she be popular

around people? A sudden rush of jealousy surged toward his heart as he thought about the possibilities.

After a while, Stanley hung up the phone and sent him the address, including Ellen’s room number. Immediately,

Jared grabbed his coat and quickly rushed to the garage. He didn’t want to wait any longer. At that moment, all he

wanted to do now was to find her and ask about her sudden departure. That was enough to make him look for her!

As the lamppost shone its light, a sports car dashed through the road as fast as lightning. On the other hand, at the

hotel, Ellen had taken a bath and was sitting on the couch, looking at the trophy on the table.

Looking at it, she thought about a familiar face. She wanted to see Jared but had no reason to do so. After all, he

had never come looking for her when she left without saying anything for an entire year. That meant that they

were over.

Thinking about it, she turned her head to look. outside the window. The neon lights were shining brightly. Is there a

woman beside him now? I wonder if she’s the same woman that I heard of before I left.

At this moment, the doorbell rang. Ellen believed it was the hotel staff since she had ordered a plate of fruits. Thus,

she stood up and opened the door without much thought.

However, it wasn’t the hotel staff who stood before her, but a man who was panting. He was leaning against the

doorframe, seemingly out of breath. When Ellen saw who he was, her pupils constricted. You. It’s you. In that split

second, the duo looked at each other without saying a word.
