Where were you when she was pushing this Lovely human being out of her?
That's right. You weren't there. I called you a million times, but you didn't answer. You blocked my number!"
A trace of guilt appeared on Tam's face.
“I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I told you I can explain everything..."
Erica shut him down.
"Save it. I knew you didn't want to endanger your marriage."
Yes, he was married, and had a daughter, Julianna Watts, who was about the same age as Erica. Julianna, Tessie, and Erica were good friends.
This time, Tam didn't say anything, which meant that she was right.
Erica spoke again.
"If Julianna knew her dad had an affair with her friend, had a kid with her... what do you think she'd do? She's always been proud of you. Do you think she'd be as proud if she knew the truth?" Luckily, Erica and Julianna hadn't seen each other for a Long time, so she didn't have to worry that she'd bring it up, even accidentally.
Tam had kept his eyes on Ethan. He didn't even turn his head until he heard his daughter's name.
“Don't tell her-please! I'll do whatever you want. Can I hold my son now?"
The eager look on his face was so obvious. That was why Erica reluctantly gave the baby to him.
In fact, when Ethan smiled, he looked a lot like Tam, especially the eyes.
Blair always wondered why the baby's eyes never looked like Erica's.
The reason was that Ethan had his father's eyes.
“I'LL be in the other room. My husband brought his men along. I'm just giving you some time alone with Ethan. No tricks! Understand?"
“I know. Don't worry. I just want to see my son!"
Erica couldn't help sneering. She ignored Tam and went to the inner chamber.
Inside that room, Matthew stood at the window, deep in thought. He heard Erica enter the room, so he turned to her, a meaningful look in his eyes.
Erica closed the door and said, "I forgot to ask him how he knew Ethan was with me. I wonder if he's been spying on us. But he never called when Ethan was at my parents’ house.”
Matthew remained silent.
Erica didn't notice the change in Matthew's mood and continued talking.
“What if he wants to take Ethan away from me?"
Matthew asked instead in a low voice, “What would you do?"
