บททั้งหมดของ Carrying the child of a CEO (English): บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

As soon as I entered, I immediately saw Bea, but Dylan was no longer there. I quickly approached her. "Bea," She immediately looked at me, stood up, and hugged me. I felt her shoulders shaking again. She seemed troubled earlier while waiting for me. "C-Claire, I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" "Shhh... It's okay, Bea. Don’t worry about it," I said while patting her back, letting her cry in my arms. After a few minutes, she finally calmed down. "Are you okay now?" I asked with a smile, and she nodded. Her eyes were swollen, and her nose was red. Bea was beautiful—she had long black hair with brown highlights, thick eyebrows, long lashes, and thin lips. In short, she was perfect. "Let’s sit down, Bea," I said, and we sat. "Wait, where’s Dylan? He was here earlier, right?" She looked at me curiously. "He left. He said he was going to wake up his friend, the best man, Kiel. You know, you and Kiel would make a great pair! Though he’s a bit grumpy, but with your beauty, I’m sure you co

"Mom, Nanay, please take care, okay? A month will pass quickly, and I’ll be back soon, I promise," I said to them as I hugged them tightly. It was already six in the evening, and my flight was at seven. I needed to leave now, or I might be late. "Take care too, Claire. We’ll miss you," Mom said, her voice trembling with tears. "Don’t cry, Nanay, or I’ll cry too. I’ll come back, okay?" I replied, my own voice breaking. I couldn’t stop my tears—they just kept falling. "Lucing, stop it. Claire’s crying now too. If she doesn’t leave soon, her flight money will go to waste," Mom said, shaking her head. "Just take care, okay? I’ll call you as soon as I land in Paris. It’ll be morning there, but night here." Since it was nighttime here, it would be morning there. That’s why Bea booked me a night flight—she knew that. "That’s good. And if anything happens, call us immediately," Mom said, making me nod. Between the two of them, Mom was the most worrisome. She acted like I was never

I felt them rubbing my back. “Hush now, my child. Didn’t I tell you before you left that no matter what problem you have, you should just tell us because we’re ready to help you? But what did you do? You hid it and ran away from the truth,” I shook my head at what Mom said to me. “M-Mom, I didn’t want to… I didn’t want you to know. I have so many dreams for the three of us, and I haven’t even repaid you both, yet here I am, pregnant. Mom, Nay, I promise I didn’t mean for this to happen.” “Shhh, calm down, Claire. Crying isn’t good for the baby. I’ll get you some water,” Nanay said to me before standing up. I looked at Mom, who was staring at me in disbelief. “Mom, I’m sorry. I know I disappointed you. I’m really sorry,” I hugged her, and she rubbed my back. “I accept your apology, Claire, but God has a plan. I know there’s a reason why there’s a baby in your belly. I just can’t believe you’re going to have a family now, my child. I just can’t believe it. By the way, where’

DYLAN I’m currently in Kiel’s office because we need to have a meeting about the woman he’s been searching for a long time. He entrusted me to find her. On the day of our wedding, he had a one-night stand with a woman, and according to him, they were supposed to have a child. That’s what he said, but I don’t believe it. If they were really having a child, the woman should have come forward to hold him accountable. But months have passed, and she’s still nowhere to be found. "Why can't you all find her?! It's just a simple task!" I winced at Kiel’s outburst—this is how he always reacts whenever we fail to locate the woman. Ever since she disappeared, he’s become even more hot-tempered, colder, and harsher toward everyone around him—even toward me, his friend. "We need to find her! We have to see her!" He said this in frustration, even pulling at his hair. This was the first time I’ve seen him in such a state—going crazy over someone he doesn’t even know. I stayed quie

CLAIRE I woke up crying and immediately held my stomach. "My baby! My baby!" "Claire! Shh... Claire, calm down. The twins are okay now! They're fine!" I looked at Bea because of what she said and grabbed her arm. "Bea, my children! My children!" Bea hugged me to calm me down. "Shh, the twins are okay, Claire. Don’t worry anymore." Because of her words, I looked at her, seeking reassurance. "Yes, they're fine now. That’s what your doctor said. He told me your babies are strong—they fought hard." I burst into tears again at her words and touched my swollen belly. "Forgive Mommy for what I did, my babies. It won’t happen again! We’ll never show ourselves to your father again—he almost killed you!" "What? What do you mean, killed?!" I looked at Bea at her question, seeing the confusion in her eyes. "Z-Zekiel, Bea. Zekiel did this to me. He pushed a woman onto me, making me hit the floor and fall. H-he said we deserved it for being attention-seekers." I cried
