CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake Chapter 1672

Chapter 1672“Joyce, what if I told you that I want you to keep this baby because I did develop some sentiment
toward the child?” he asked while massaging his forehead.
Joyce's eyes went wide with shock. “What?”
He actually feels sentiment for my baby? How is that even possible?
Joyce shook her head and took a few steps back in response.
Judging by the strange look she was giving Stanley, it became obvious that she still refused to believe
his words.
Stanley simply pursed his lips and made no attempts to persuade her any further.

It looks like I will have to regain her trust little by little.
With that in mind, Stanley said calmly, “It's fine if you don't believe me. Feel free to assume that I am
lying about it.”
Joyce bit down on her lip.
See? I knew it! There's no way he'd feel sentiment toward my baby! He really was just joking about it!
Honestly, I can't believe he'd make such a horrible joke! After taking a deep breath to calm herself down, Joyce asked, “So, why did you agree to let me keep
the baby and stay in the hospital? I know for a fact that you want me to deliver the baby, but what will
happen after that? Are you going to take the baby away?”
No longer worried that he would have her abort the baby, the only thing that concerned her was his
intentions toward the baby.
She didn't know what she would do if he took the baby away after she gave birth. She couldn't imagine
how she would cope if she were to lose her baby forever.
If that's what he's aiming for, then he is far more heartless and cruel than I had expected! I can't think of
an act of revenge that is any crueler than that! To keep a mother from seeing her child forever is worse
than having her abort the child!
Joyce's face went pale at the thought of that. Her breathing grew ragged as she stared at Stanley with
fear in her eyes.
Naturally, Stanley figured out what she was thinking when he noticed the changes in her expression.
He shook his head helplessly and said, “Please drop those ridiculous thoughts of yours. I won't do
something as low as taking your child away from you.”
Joyce swallowed nervously as she asked, “So, you're not going to take my baby away from me?”
Stanley nodded. “That's right.”
Joyce broke into a smile when she heard that. “That's a relief! I thought you wanted me to give birth to
this baby so you could take him away from me! I mean as a form of revenge.” Stanley didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard that. “You sure have a powerful
imagination.”
Joyce lowered her head awkwardly. “I'm sorry, Mr. Quinn. I didn't mean to. You have traumatized me far
too deeply, so I can't help but overthink things sometimes.”
It was not her intention to be paranoid about every little thing, but she simply couldn't stop herself from
doing so.
Stanley felt helpless and guilty after hearing her explanation.
She became paranoid because I traumatized her and put her through too much stress...
“Never mind, then.” Stanley adjusted his glasses as he continued, “I don't have a special reason for
wanting you to keep your baby. All I want is to see how my child looks and if my child turns out to be a
smart one.”
He had deliberately said that to put Joyce's mind at ease.
Joyce stared long and hard at Stanley as though she could see if he was lying.
She felt relieved deep down inside, but she maintained her facial expression anyway.
He's probably telling the truth. He changed his mind not because he felt sentiment toward my child, nor
to get his revenge on my child.
