I Made His Wife’s Dress Now I’ll Marry Another Chapter 19
“He showed me the hotel keycard log and the hallway surveillance footage himself,” my mother said slowly. “The camera only showed Sabine entering the room. It didn’t show what happened inside. Adrian had blacked out from drinking. He didn’t dare gamble with a child’s life.”
Adrian’s eyes were rimmed with red. “Why didn’t you tell Clara?”
“Tell her what?” My mother’s voice was quiet, but every word landed with force. “That you might have been innocent, but you still decided to put another woman in her wedding dress?”
No one answered.
Sabine kept shaking her head. “That’s not what happened. Mom, you can’t destroy my family just because Clara came back.”
She reached for Adrian again.
He took another step back. “Who is Leo’s biological father?”
Sabine froze, the practiced softness on her face dissolving like makeup in water.
People outside the room had heard the argument. A nurse shut the door and reminded everyone to keep their voices down. Adrian apologized with a nod, then crouched to gather the broken porcelain himself. The soup-stained coat lay draped over the back of a chair. No one mentioned the photo shoot again.
