GETTING THE HEART OF THE CEO

On Sunday, they walked along the beach, playing and caressing each other. They didn’t return that day; they wanted to appreciate the sunrise from the shore.

In the early morning, they left the house hand in hand and returned to the beach. Sitting on a large rock, they witnessed the first visible lights before the sunrise on the horizon.

Exhausted, they returned to the mansion. Lindsey, upon entering the house, went straight to the bedroom and threw herself on the bed.

“I’m not going to the company. Freed will take care of it. My wife left me exhausted,” Kyle whispered ironically, lying down beside her.

“Now I’m to blame for my insatiable husband. Just let me sleep,” she nestled on his chest, closing her eyes.

After several hours of rest, they woke up hungry. They left the room and went straight to the kitchen in search of food. As they were in the dining room, they heard a woman speaking. They got up from the table and walked toward the entrance.

“Good afternoon, Kyle. I’m sorry to come here and disturb you at your home, but I need to talk to you about something important,” Catrina had an offended expression. She was approaching Kyle to greet him with a kiss, but he stopped her with his hand and then let her go.

Kyle wondered, ‘Why is this woman here? Am I in trouble now? I know it’s not something good.’ With a murderous look, he growled, “Catrina, who the hell do you think you are to come to my house? Get out of here!”

“You can’t kick me out of your house without talking to you about a delicate matter. I arrived from Paris a few days ago, tried to locate you without success. I spent the day at the company on Friday, and you didn’t show up. Today was the same. I dared to come to your house to see if you were okay, and what I have to tell you is genuinely important,” embarrassment was evident on her face.

“Catrina, you and I have nothing to talk about. It’s better for you to leave. Whatever you have to tell me can wait,” Kyle said.

“I won’t leave until you hear me. Can we talk in private, please?”

Upon hearing the word Paris, alarms went off in Lindsey’s head. She remembered when Kyle returned uneasy from the trip to that country.

“Whatever you have to tell my husband, you can say it in front of me.”

“What? I want to talk to Kyle, not you!” she exclaimed arrogantly.

“I am his wife and the lady of this house. If you don’t want to talk, it’s better that you turn around and leave my house,” Lindsey growled angrily. She didn’t understand what was happening, but one thing was certain: her husband had deceived her!

Kyle wanted to take Catrina to the office when he heard his wife say, “Kyle! Tell this woman that she can say whatever she has to in my presence, unless you’re hiding something from me.”

“Catrina, I don’t think there’s anything important coming from you. It’s better if you leave my house.”

“Kyle, why are you treating me like this? Let me tell you that what happened between us during the week in Paris has consequences.”

Lindsey opened her eyes wide, processing what she heard. So it’s true; he cheated on me during that trip!

At that moment, Kyle became furious and growled threateningly, “You’re despicable, Catrina, and you’ll pay for this. Get out; I don’t want to see you.” He tried to grab his wife’s hands, and she rejected him, uncomfortable with the situation.

“How can you humiliate the mother of your child?” Forced tears began to roll down her cheeks.

“What child?” Lindsey shouted.

“I’m pregnant, one month pregnant. I’m sorry, ma’am, for what I’m about to say. I’m pregnant with your husband.”Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Kyle grabbed Catrina’s arm tightly to pull her out of the house.

“Get out of my house. You thought I would fall for your lies.”

“I’m not lying. You can check it; I have a delicate pregnancy. I left modeling, and here I am looking for the father of my child because he needs you. Let me go; you’re mistreating me.”

Kyle reluctantly let her go and rubbed his hands over his face, “This couldn’t be happening to me, especially at this moment in my life.”

Unable to bear hearing that woman any longer, Lindsey, enraged and disappointed, ran to her room and locked the door. She collapsed on the bed, hugging a pillow, and began to cry as loudly as she could.

“Do you think I’m so stupid to believe you?” Kyle exclaimed, terrified by his wife’s reaction.

“If you don’t believe me, let’s take pregnancy tests, and you can calculate the time. My pregnancy is high-risk, and I have nowhere else to go.”

Kyle was paralyzed; the possibility of being a father lingered in his mind. Regardless of his mother being a wretched woman, the child was not to blame for his mistake.

“I’ll make sure to verify it. I fell into your trap, Catrina, but if what you say is true, I’ll take responsibility for that child who is not at fault for having such a wicked mother like you,” he shouted, his eyes filled with anger.

“Don’t hurt me with your words. You’re hurting our baby. I already humiliated myself by coming here to ensure our baby’s well-being. I have a high-risk pregnancy, and he needs you. Besides, what happened between us was because you wanted to enter my room. I didn’t put a gun to your head. Now I’m staying in a hotel while I figure out where to live,” she whispered, affected by the situation.

“Tomorrow we’ll go to the doctor to confirm the pregnancy, and then I’ll figure out where you’ll stay because I sold the apartment.”

Catrina, with teary eyes, turned around and left the house triumphantly, running her hand over her belly. She thought, “Things turned out better than I expected. That tasteless woman found out once and for all. Better this way. Baby, misbehave a little so that your dad brings us to live in this house. Tomorrow, we’ll have to act to get the doctor’s support.”

Kyle looked at Emilia, who had heard everything. She looked sad, knowing that the harmony in the house had vanished. With quick steps, he went to his office and smashed everything in his path.
