Uriel’s eyes filled with worry. “But that woman is vicious. If she hadn’t pushed us over and over again back then, you wouldn’t have been forced to leave with me for Murica.”

Derrick tightened his arms around her. “Don’t worry. I came here with you willingly. As for Sebastian, you don’t need to be concerned. He’ll handle this himself.”

Empire Group.

As the crowd grew restless with anticipation, the man finally stepped out of the building with calm, steady strides.

Foster followed closely behind, six bodyguards flanking them and opening the way.

The moment the reporters saw him, they surged forward.

“Sir, is the report in the newspaper true?”

“You haven’t responded until now–are you guilty of something?”

“Is there a hidden reason you won’t acknowledge this child?”

“Please, say a few words. The whole of Kingston is watching how this develops.”

Questions flew like arrows.

Across the street, inside a black car, Janus’s lips curved in a lazy smile. “Go on. This is your chance.”

Laney stared at the man in the distance, his cold aura making her falter with fear.

Janus glanced at her with disdain. “Miss this chance, and you’ll walk away with nothing.”

His words hardened her resolve. Laney stepped out of the car and headed toward Empire Group.

Janus watched her back retreating, a mocking sneer tugging at his mouth.

At that moment, Sebastian, surrounded by his bodyguards, broke through the crowd and was about to get into his car–when a voice called out.

“Sebastian.”

Chapter 581 Laney’s Motive

Laney stood there, eyes brimming with grievance as she looked at him.

The reporters went wild, shoving past two bodyguards who tried to block them.

“How did you and Mr. Whitmore meet?”

“If Mr. Whitmore refuses to acknowledge the child, will you still give birth to it?”

“As the woman involved, what kind of response are you hoping for from Mr. Whitmore?”

“As a man, shouldn’t you take responsibility? After all, Ms. Laney is carrying your child, isn’t she?”

Laney’s eyes glistened with tears as she said softly, “Don’t push Sebastian. I’m not asking him to take responsibility. I only want him to admit that this child is his. The child is innocent. He cannot grow up without a father. As for me, I can endure any humiliation–it doesn’t matter.”

She turned to Sebastian, her gaze filled with wounded appeal. “I don’t ask for a title. I only want this child to have a father. That’s enough.”

Her words drew murmurs of sympathy. For a woman to say this openly, asking only for her child to be acknowledged, it seemed to many a display of great courage.

“Don’t worry. I’m sure Chairman Whitmore will give you a satisfying answer.”

“Yes, surely you’ll say something now?”

Sebastian looked at Laney, his hands in his pockets, eyes sharp with mockery. “Ms. Laney, you’ve

gone to great lengths to trap me in front of Kingston’s media. But tell me this–what evidence do you have that this child is mine?”

Laney’s tears spilled as she cried out, “Sebastian, how can you say that? Over a month ago, at Ravenwood Manor, you and I—”

“Ms. Laney,” Sebastian cut her off coldly, “I suggest you think carefully before you speak. Over a month ago, my fiancée invited you all as guests to our home. When exactly would I have had any involvement with you?”

His words silenced the crowd. Reporters exchanged stunned looks.

“Mr. Whitmore, are you saying you already have a fiancée?”

“By your account, Ms. Laney is actually close to your fiancée?”

“Ms. Laney, is it true that you have a close relationship with Mr. Whitmore’s fiancée? If so, then are you admitting you betrayed your own friend by going after her fiancé behind her back?”
