Chapter 760
Peter stared at Esme quietly.
She became unsettled the longer he stared at her, worried that he would suddenly go crazy.
“You don’t believe me? Or do you think that the baby isn’t yours? You’re a researcher and you know a lot of things.
You have ways to find out more about it.” She pulled his hand and placed it on her belly, worried that he wouldn’t
believe her.
“You can take my venous blood to test it.”
Peter found it to be very ironic. She said that she had just found out about it, but she knew about using her venous
blood for DNA testing. Obviously, she had read a lot about it beforehand.
“Other than using venous blood to check for one’s parental DNA, did you read about how to get an abortion? Do
you want it done by hand or with drugs?”
Esme was stunned, unable to react.

to vilify Conrad? Is that it?”
“No!” Esme shuddered. “I… I didn’t! You’re the only man I have, and you know it! I was still a virgin when we got
together!”
Peter smiled. “You came back for him, and he almost had a divorce with Fia, and you dare say that you never slept
with him?”
“No! I never did!” Esme wanted to curse when she remembered about it!
She did everything she could back then and even drugged him, but Conrad never slept with her!
“You have to believe me! You’re the only man I ever have! This baby is definitely yours! The only reason that I was
reading about the paternity test is because I’m worried that you won’t believe me.”
“Enough!” Peter was getting so annoyed when he heard about her crying and said, “Raise your hand.”
“Alright.” Esme showed her arm.
Peter brought a needle and extracted four vials of blood from her elbow area. He then said coldly, “Go back to rest.
Have the Thomases prepare some nutritious food for you.”
“Alright,” Esme said as she held a piece of cotton over where the needle pricked her. When it stopped bleeding, she
looked at Peter pitifully. “What should we do next?”
Peter looked at her coldly and took her blood to a machine for the test.
“What do you want?” he asked nonchalantly.
“Everyone thought that Britney was the one that chased after you and that you didn’t like her. Now that I’m
pregnant, should we do this secretly or should we open it up?”
“Do you want to make this relationship open?” Peter said, his voice still without much
emotion.
There was a flash in Esme’s eyes and said, “Maybe we should keep it quiet for now. We can take it slow and make
everyone believe that you’re starting to accept me. Then, when they…”
“Esme Manning.” Peter turned around and looked at her with frigid eyes. “Do you want to take it slow so that
everyone has time to warm up to the idea, or are you just trying to buy time for your schemes?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“No, I’m really doing this for your sake. Otherwise, if we suddenly announce this despite your dislike for Britney,
everyone will think that you’re not doing it for real or you’re toying with Britney’s feelings.”
“I’m the one with the ruined reputation and I’m fine with that!” Peter said as he let out a sneer. “Better than you
having a large belly and having both our reputations ruined!”
“Then, what you’re saying is…?” Esme carefully asked.
“Give me some time.” He glared at her. “And you better keep your head low.”
After Esme left, Peter waited for the results as his mind wandered.
He never thought of having a child with Esme. At least, not until then.
The two of them had always used protection. The only time that he did it was in the car because he didn’t have a
condom. However, he pulled out at the last moment, so he didn’t leave any traces inside.
When he remembered what Esme had been doing lately, he laughed at himself. “She planned it all.”
She planned to have his child so that she could control him.
Everything that woman did was for her schemes!
Once Esme returned to the Thomases’ household, she locked herself up in her room and didn’t
even want to eat.
