Staring at the children, Caleb suddenly asked, “They’re very cute, don’t you think?”
I didn’t know what to say, nor did I understand what he was up to, so I didn’t say anything.
“Even Adam’s son is very cute,” Caleb droned on. “Actually, you know what? I’m very curious to see what my own child looks Like.”
My heart began to bang wildly against my chest. What did he mean by that? He seemed to see right through my calm facade.
He approached me slowly and said in a dangerously low voice, “Why didn’t you tell me that you got pregnant? I talked to Colin yesterday. He told me everything.”

Debra’s POV:
Caleb’s words made me so nervous that my mind went completely blank. ALL I could hear was the sound of my heart thumping in my chest.
Did he already know about Elena?
No, no, this couldn’t be!
Fortunately, I managed to calm myself down somewhat. There was still a big chance that Colin didn’t know that I had joined the Xeric Pack and given birth to Elena. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so surprised when he first met me after all these years.
So even if Colin had told Caleb everything he knew, Caleb couldn’t have known about Elena.
Realizing this, I secretly sighed in relief.
At least the situation wasn’t as bad as I thought; there was still room to maneuver.
“You’re not saying anything. So you were pregnant?” Caleb stared at me expectantly.
I carefully collected my thoughts first. I couldn’t afford to answer him rashly.
“Okay, I got my answer.” Caleb suddenly broke into a happy smile.
It was the first time I ever saw him look so happy. His eyes shone brightly, Like stars in the night sky.
After glancing at me, he then turned his head to scan the children in the kindergarten, as though he was trying to find his child among them.
Just then, I caught a glimpse of Elena’s blonde head among the sea of children. Damn it!
I was so nervous that I didn’t have time to think. I simply walked up to Caleb and blocked his view.
“What’re you doing?” Caleb looked confused.
“It’s true. I did get pregnant, but the child didn’t survive,” I lied through my teeth.
