Now Aziraphale was getting angry and defensive? No, 'my dear, I have no idea what you're talking about'? Angels couldn't lie, but they got past that by not saying anything at all. His reaction were very nearly confirmation. Crowley was deeply hurt, and as always when he was hurt, he lashed out.
"How dare I? How dare I? I have every right to know, damn it. I think you owe me that much at least. You have no idea what I went through. And why? I should be asking you the same question. I knew you had no taste, but I didn't think even you'd stoop so low. Couldn't even wait two fucking weeks..."
Because Crowley had done the math and figured that Uriel must have gotten pregnant during the two weeks that Aziraphale was in Heaven.* Then he came back early with a much nicer body. It couldn't have been coincidence.
*His calculations were off by about a month, though it wasn't entirely his fault. The baby looked further along than it was because of its size in comparison to Uriel's.
