Chapter 2293 Freyja ate the food. "After the child is born, love is no longer as intense." Colton chuckled. "After giving birth to the child, you have the energy to bicker with me, huh?" She continued to eat and ignored him.

He hadn't shown any appreciation ever since Charmaine's birth. What made her angrier was that he would help her with everything before that, but once it was done, he would disappear. 'Is he no longer interested because he saw how Charm came out? 'Hah, men.'

Colton noticed that she had a dark aura and was cautious. "Who made you angry?" Freyja glared at him because she thought the question was rhetorical.

Colton didn't know what to do. He moved next to her and was going to hug her, but she blocked his hands. "Don't hug me."

He retracted his arms.

Freyja looked at him and asked, "You really stopped because I said so?" Colton chuckled. "Well, do you want a hug or not?" She said, "Hug me when you figure out what's wrong." Colton stared at her and could guess why she was acting coy, so he laughed. "Alright, I'll hug you tomorrow then." Freyja was rendered speechless. Colton left the room in the afternoon and walked into the hallway to answer Leonardo's call.

"Sir, Ronald George has been arrested for aggravated assault," said Leonardo.

Colton squinted. "Who did he assault?"

"Jessie Blueman." Leonardo continued. "I guess it was because Jessie ratted him out about attempting to murder his wife and made him lose his mind. Ronald met her at the station today and slashed her a few times in front of the public. The passersby worked together to stop him, and Jessie was sent to the hospital. She's alive, but her face was badly slashed, so she has been disfigured.

"By the way, after she was sent to the hospital, she was found to be pregnant, and..."

Colton frowned. "And what?"

Leonardo took a deep breath. "She claims that it's yours and that she has evidence of spending time with you at a hotel. She even said that she would rat you out if you didn't go and see her." Colton's eyes grew cold. After a long pause, he said, "Where is she?" "Citizens Hospital."

After Jessie was brought out from the emergency room, her face was wrapped up in gauze and was badly swollen. She didn't dare touch a mirror. After she was informed about her pregnancy, she lost her mind and broke down.

She couldn't pay the hospital bills for her injuries, so abortion was out of the question. Her face was disfigured, and the only way to fully recover was through reconstructive surgery, which would cost tens of thousands. There was no way she would be able to get that money.

The only way was to get help from Colton.

The time of conception would match that day, and she had evidence of him hiring people to assault her. So what if he was a Goldmann? Once she exposed the truth, he would have a tough

time too.

She was ready to go down with him.

Leonardo showed up at the door and let Colton walk in.

Colton loosened his tie and calmly said, "Very gutsy of you to accuse me."

Jessie clenched her jaw. "Mr. Goldmann, are you going to deny what you did to me? I have evidence and have nothing left to lose, so I don't care. You, however, are a Goldmann. I'm sure you care about your name?"

Colton raised his brows, revealing his cold eyes. "How much do you want?"

Jessie saw that he went straight to the point, so she unabashedly held out a finger. "$ 1,000,000.”

Colton smirked. "$1,000,000? You think too highly of yourself."
