62. Regret

"Whose book?" Vanessa and Alex asked simultaneously. Lea said that the baby wasn't William's. "Lea's pregnancy journal?"

William opened the book and turned the first page. He could easily recognize that the cursive handwriting belonged to Paula.

"Pregnancy book …," William muttered. "It's Paula's," William said again in a whisper. He was trembling in fear. He was afraid that his dream was not a mere dream but a harsh reality. Paula was truly pregnant!

"Oh, William! Don't open it, please!" Lisa shouted. She didn't want William to find the truth about Paula's affair.

"Lisa, he has to know about his wife's true face!" Alex said nonchalantly. Lisa was going to argue but relented. She knew that he was right. William deserved to know the truth.
