Mr. CEO, I Was Forced To Be Your Wife! のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 51 - チャプター 60

Annelise's POVI don't know what prompted me to hug him; all I knew was that at that moment, all I wanted was to hug him.It was so obvious that Ethan was too shocked to react or do anything. I hugged him even tighter though.The last time I felt so scared, like I did when I heard that he was missing, was when my mother was admitted to the hospital.He cleared his throat after a while. “What are you doing?” he asked.“Hugging you? That's what friends do," I answered, more like a question.He broke the hug immediately I said that, with so much force.“Who said we're friends?"“Well, we aren't enemies, are we? And the opposite of enemies is friends. I just put two and two together and came up with that.”"Besides, we've been getting along really well lately, right?" I added.I don't even know what to call the expression on his face; it was just blank but mixed with confusion.“Call it whatever you wish to call it. I'm going upstairs; I'm getting really uncomfortable in these clothes," h

Ethan's POVI saw Max and Rex immediately I got downstairs, which made me pause a bit. Seeing them now gives me an inkling of what could have brought them here.“Good evening, boss," they both greeted me simultaneously.I glanced toward Anastasia; she was focused on her phone and wasn't looking at us.“What's the problem?” I asked. They don't come in here unless there's a special message or an activity.“There's something you might want to know,” Max said.I looked between them, then back at Anastasia. I don't even know why I kept staring at her.“Uh, I'll be back in a bit; we'll just be outside,” I said to her. She raised her head and nodded at me.I stepped out with Rex and Max coming up behind me.“Speak,” I ordered when we got outside.“Uh, we just found out that someone has been trailing you,” Max started."Trailing me, how?”“When we got back to the estate, Rex noticed a car parked horizontally opposite the house. It's at a reasonable distance from us but still looked suspicious

Ethan's POVI stared blankly at the paper before me; I've been trying so hard to fully comprehend what's in it, but I kept getting distracted mentally.My mind would flash back to the kiss I shared with Anastasia two days ago. It's now like a script that's being played over and over again in my head.I've tried so hard to concentrate countless times, but I just end up thinking about how perfectly her lips fit mine.She looked really hot standing before me on the counter that day, and I couldn't resist kissing her over and over again.All I wanted to do was to torture her a little so that she'd be left needy, then I would detach from her.I didn't have it in mind to kiss her on the lips, but coming in close contact with her pink lips drew me in like I was under a spell.“F\*ck!” I cussed out of frustration.I was starting to feel aroused just from thinking of her again; what in the world did she do to me?!I closed my eyes shut, trying to think of something else that would take my mind

Annelise's POVWe were soon done with eating, or when he was done with eating since I've been done with eating for a while now and was barely just watching him eat.“You still didn't eat much,” he said with a frown on his face, his eyebrows pulled together.Truth is I've been feeling really nauseous since afternoon. If I ate more than I've done already, I'd just end up throwing up all over the place.“I'm okay, I had a large lunch, that should be the reason,” I lied, keeping up a little smile on my face.I took my plate to the kitchen, not even bothering with his since I know fully well that he won't allow me to help him.I yawned almost immediately after we were done in the kitchen. The only thing I was thinking of was to sleep on my bed till tomorrow. I felt so tired.“It's not fully night yet, and you're feeling sleepy already. Is everything okay?” He asked me.Who would have thought that Ethan was an observer too? He seemed to have noticed that I don't sleep early.“I'm really tir

Ethan's POV I watched as she faced the wall and drew the covers till it covered her whole body.Anastasia could be so funny and cute at the same time, the look on her face when she realized that she was drooling was priceless.I watched her for a while then turned around, leaving her alone to sleep. I turned around and went to seat down on the chair opposite the study table in the room where I work once in a while.I checked to see if Rex had sent the footage I told him to send and he had sent it, I clicked on it, giving it all my attention. I intently watched it to see that there was basically nothing there.The only thing there was just the surrounding and Rex going around the house a few time.When I watched the footage of the camera right outside the room Anastasia stays, it was almost the same as the one outside, the only thing there was when she walked in and out of the room.I heaved a sigh of relief when I saw that there was nothing there too, the tension in my shoulders rele
