Felicity continued to shout at him, "I want to see Harrison!"
She was, after all, a pregnant woman. Secretary Burnett didn't dare have security drag her out by force. Instead, he turned and headed for the VIP elevator himself.
"Wait for me!" Felicity cried, seeing him about to leave.
Burnett frantically jabbed the 'close door' button while yelling at the guards, "Stop her!"
The two guards blocked Felicity's path as the elevator doors slid shut. Inside, Burnett watched the floor numbers climb. When the doors opened again, he strode into the CEO's office.
"Mr. Vaughn." Burnett stood before Harrison, his posture impeccably respectful.
"What is it?" Harrison looked up, assuming the matter with Felicity had been resolved.
Burnett struggled for a moment before saying, "Miss Felicity claims she's pregnant with your child."
Harrison was staring at a document on his computer screen. The news didn't cause even a flicker of emotion on his face, but Burnett felt the temperature in the expansive office plummet.
After a few seconds of chilling silence, Harrison scoffed. "She's lost her mind."
"Her belly is showing, sir," Burnett confirmed cautiously. "Are you certain the child isn't yours?"
Harrison finally lifted his gaze, his eyes sharp. "Are you questioning me? Why would you even need to confirm something so absurd?"
A shiver went down Burnett's spine. He quickly explained, "It's just that… you and Miss Thompson were once very close."
The order made Burnett freeze for a second. He took a quiet, deep breath, relieved that he hadn't had her thrown out.

A few minutes later, the office door opened again, and Felicity rushed in.
"Harrison!" Her eyes reddened the moment she saw him. "I thought you never wanted to see me again," she said, her voice trembling with grievance.
Harrison looked at her, his gaze so cold and detached that Felicity began to tremble involuntarily. He was looking at her with more indifference than he would a stranger—it was the look one reserved for an enemy.
A chilling laugh escaped his throat. "I always knew you weren't the sharpest tool in the shed, but I never imagined you were this stupid. How are you and Selene sisters? Did you not get even a fraction of her intelligence?"
