ANMELDENThe day before the company retreat, the CEO suddenly sent a message in the company group chat. [How's your leg?] The group chat, which had been buzzing with excitement just moments before, instantly went silent. To protect the CEO's dignified image, I immediately found a CT scan report and sent it into the chat. [Thank you for your concern, Mr. Graham. I already got my leg checked. The doctor said it's nothing serious.] This time, the CEO replied almost immediately. [Good. I'm glad you're okay. You can submit the claims for medical expenses. You can also take another two weeks off.] The group chat instantly flooded with comments praising him. [Mr. Graham is so thoughtful.] [He really cares about his employees.] I was secretly proud of my high emotional intelligence when I suddenly received a friend request from someone claiming to be the CEO's fiancee. [So you're the homewrecker who's been seducing Christopher at work! You're really something, aren't you? Why would he ask about your leg in the middle of the night? [If you have the guts, send your leg photos to the group chat and let everyone admire them!] The sip of water I just took nearly sprayed all over my screen I looked down at the dog curled up in my arms. Its name was Hammie. I then glanced at the family photo hanging on the wall. What homewrecker? I was literally the CEO's mother!

You forged the pregnancy report."All color drained from Kylie's face.Slowly, she crouched down and cried until her entire body was trembling.Christopher finally turned away. He didn't look at her again."Leave."When Kylie was leaving, her eyes were terribly swollen. Her makeup was completely ruined from crying."Ms. Lawson, do you hate me a lot?"I sat on the sofa and looked at her."I don't hate you. I sympathize with what happened to you, but you lied to Christopher. I can't forgive that."Kylie lowered her head and was silent for a long while."I know I don't deserve Christopher, but I really do love him."It's not because he's rich, but because he understands me. No one has ever supported me the way he has."I sighed."Loving s
The bedroom door opened.David walked out. He was holding the hands of two children.Kylie's face turned completely pale within a second."Mom!"The two children's eyes lit up the moment they saw her.Thomas Jackson was the first to break free from David's grip and run into Kylie's arms.Meredith Jackson followed right behind and hugged Kylie's leg. She looked up at Kylie with tears streaming down her face."Mom, I missed you."Kylie froze. Her entire body trembled.Her lips were trembling too. She didn't even dare move because Christopher was sitting right beside her.Christopher's expression changed from confusion to shock and finally disbelief.He looked at Thomas before shifting his gaze to Meredith. Finally, his gaze landed on David who was standing at the bedroom door.Kylie completely broke down.She suddenly pushed Thomas away."Christopher! Christopher, let me explain! It's not what you think–"Thomas fell to the floor and burst into tears.Meredith refused to
"Mom, I'm going to marry her. I want this child."She was wrong for what happened before, but I was wrong too. I'm the one who made her misunderstand things, and that's why you suffered so much at the company. If you need someone to blame, blame me instead!" Christopher exclaimed.Adam placed his coffee on the table. There was a soft clink."Do you have any idea–"I grabbed his hand and gently shook my head.I knew Adam too well.He was a man of uncompromising standards. With his personality, he would immediately throw the investigation results in Kylie's face and tell her to stay away from the Graham family.But I also knew Christopher. He had always been someone who valued relationships above everything else.Once he decided someone mattered to him, no one could change his mind.If we told him the truth right now, he wouldn't believe us. Instead, he would think we were deliberately targeting Kylie and trying to ruin his happiness.Some things were better seen than explained
I waved. I didn't have the energy to watch her act anymore."We still have things to deal with here. You should head back first."In the end, Kylie reluctantly left. She kept turning back after taking a few steps, but Christopher never stopped her.After she left, I said to Adam, "Look into her. If she's going to marry into the Graham family, we need to make sure she has a clean background."Adam nodded. He retrieved his phone and sent a message.The vet said Hammie only suffered minor internal bruising. There was no serious injury. It just needed to rest at home.Christopher finally relaxed. He sat on the couch while holding Hammie for a long time.Adam insisted that I stay in the hospital for three days to go through a thorough examination.During those three days, Kylie came to the hospital three times.The first time, she brought a fruit basket and flowers. She said she came to apologize.Christopher wasn't there. I asked the nurse to accept the gifts and didn't meet her.
