Baby for Mr CEO のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

AliceI stood frozen, my eyes fixed on Xavier's pale face. His mother's wails and my own ragged breathing filled the air. I felt a hand on my shoulder, but I didn't flinch. I couldn't tear my gaze away from Xavier, and when I did turn, I saw Wendy.Xavier's mother glared at me, her face contorted in anguish. "It's all your fault!" she shouted, her voice echoing through the hospital room. "Ever since you came into Xavier's life, he's been having problems, suffering from this and that. Look at what you've done! You've landed my son in the hospital!"She burst into tears, her body shaking with sobs. Xavier's father tried to calm her down, holding her close. "It's not Alice's fault, dear. Let's not blame her for this."But Xavier's mother pushed him away, her eyes blazing with anger. "No, it's her fault! She's the one who's been causing all these problems!"Wendy stood frozen, her hand still on my shoulder, trying to offer me some comfort. I felt a lump form in my throat as I watched Xavi

XavierI lay on the hospital bed, my mind still reeling from the events of the past few days. Suddenly, my phone buzzed, breaking the silence. I checked the screen and saw that it was Thompson calling. I let out a sigh and answered."Hello?" I said, trying to sound more alert than I felt."Sir, I have some information," he said on the other end of the line.I glanced at the time, wondering what could be so urgent. "What is it, Thompson?""We've found more information on Lily," Thompson replied.I felt a surge of irritation. "I thought I told you to leave Lily alone. She's not the one we're suspecting."He hesitated before speaking. "Sir, please listen. Remember when we found out that she was caught shoplifting in a pharmacy?"I frowned, trying to recall. "Yes, she was getting medicine for her sick mother. About that, I'll do everything to make things right. Because of me, Lily has suffered enough. I also apologize that she stole a few drugs for her sick mother because she had no money

As soon as Lily got home from the interview, she burst into tears. Her mother tried to console her, reassuring her that everything would be fine, but she was heartbroken."Mom, can I come work as a janitor?" Lily asked, her voice shaking.Her mother looked at her in surprise. "Janitor? Lily, you can't work as a janitor. That's a job for older people."She sighed deeply. "I really hate the man, but at the same time, I like him."As time passed, Lily became increasingly obsessed with Xavier. She printed out his pictures and plastered them all over her room. She would often find excuses to go to the company building just to catch a glimpse of him leaving work."I'll get a job there soon," she told herself. "I'll find a way to see him every day."And then, a sinister idea struck her…Her toxic obsession with Xavier led her down a dark path. She began by replacing her mother's supplements and vitamins with drugs, slowly poisoning her to make her sick. As her mother's health declined, Lily

AliceI sat anxiously in my hospital bed, my fingers nervously drumming against the railing. Despite the relief that washed over me when the doctor announced our baby was fine, worry still gnawed at my mind. Xavier's sudden nosebleed had left me on edge. I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.As I bit my fingernails, my mind whirled with possibilities. Was it stress? Had everything that happened finally taken its toll on him?Just then, the door swung open, and I straightened up, my heart racing with anticipation. Xavier walked in, a gentle smile on his face, and I breathed a sigh of relief."Hey," he said softly, approaching me.I stood up, the drip stand rolling beside me, but Xavier quickly intervened."Whoa, no, no, go back to bed," he said, guiding me gently back onto the mattress."But what happened?" I asked, my brow furrowed with concern. "What did the doctor say?"Xavier waved his hand dismissively. "Just stress, that's all."I narrowed my eyes, skepticism writt

XavierAs Alice walked up to me, I remained still, my eyes fixed on her. Even without the wedding dress, she radiated a captivating aura. My chest fluttered, and I felt lost in thought.She tapped me gently on the shoulder, breaking the spell. "Xavier, are you alright?" she asked, concern etched on her face.I swallowed hard, composing myself. "I guess so," I replied, my voice low.She smiled. "We aren't done here, right? Because you need to wear the—""Yeah. I'll go put it on right now," I interrupted, nodding.With the staff's assistance, I headed to the dressing room. Moments later, I emerged, dressed in the tailored suit.Alice's eyes widened as she stood up, applauding. "Wow, you look dashing, handsome Mr. Xavier Blackwood!" she exclaimed.I smiled, feeling a sense of pride. "Thank you," I said, bowing slightly.After we were done, we headed outside, and as we settled into the car, I took the wheel, and we glided into the evening traffic. But as we drove, a creeping migraine bega
