The Contract Baby He Cannot Buy

The pregnancy test turned positive beside the divorce papers.

For one full minute, I stared at both like they belonged to someone else's life.

My marriage to Ethan Vale had been simple: one year, one contract, no feelings, no children.

He got the merger.

I got enough money to save my mother's clinic.

At 8:00 a.m., his lawyer delivered the final papers with a diamond bracelet I had never asked for.

At 8:07, the bathroom door opened.

Ethan stood there in a tailored black coat, eyes dropping from my face to the test in my hand.

"Sofia," he said quietly. "Tell me that is not mine."

The contract says divorce, but the test says heir. Do you hide the pregnancy, demand a new deal, or tell Ethan the baby is none of his business?
