CEO’s Romantic Affair

An inter-continental flight was too much for Cathryn in her last couple of months of pregnancy; therefore, she couldn’t go to visit Keith’s parents in Germany, and they had decided to make a trip to see Cathryn in the States.

When he told her this news, her first reaction of all, without particular reasons, was nervousness. During her marriage with Jordan, she had always wished to meet his family because she felt insecure and told herself that from the perspective of traditions. She thought the approval of his close family might finally stabilize their relationship.

But everything was totally different when it came to Keith here. She was well certain of his feelings towards her, and she wanted to pay to take special care of his folks. Now her nervousness rested on her own performance, and she hoped they could trust him this time, too, if she turned out to be a good choice.

This kind of tension was common for every woman before seeing her in-laws for the first time, she thought. But the depth of tension was different, depending on the love for the husband and the degree of self-confidence.

For a man like Keith Clarkson, and for herself, who had already failed a marriage, Cathryn felt a strong dissatisfaction with herself and worried like never before.

Keith always tried to convince her many times that his parents were like him, and they would love anyone as long as he did.

Moreover, she should have some confidence in their temperament, that they’d never be harsh on anyone, let alone her, and they’d love her very much.

After the wedding, they returned to his island. Since a notice had been posted in the company bulletins, John and the staff on the island had known too that they had established a relationship. They congratulated them genuinely when they were back; everyone was filled with joy and expressed their gratitude to the new mistress.

Keith accompanied Cathryn all the time for checkups, and as she was scheduled for delivery in September, it was less than two months now before the due date. It had become hard for her to sleep, with particular difficulty to turn over. She woke up every night with a sore backache.

Fortunately, they can sleep together now. Keith was kind enough to let her lean her back on him. She felt especially cozy and comfortable having him on her back.

In the beginning, Keith still chose to just enter without moving. As time went by, he saved the effort to go in. He was now quietly waiting for the child to come out, and then he could have a full meal.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

In addition to getting too tired to sleep at night, Cathryn also had problems with leg cramps in the middle of the night. When it happened, her whole leg would tremble. She always woke up in shock, painfully sweating all over. But before she woke up, he would be a step early, holding her cramped legs and starting massaging.

Cathryn would be in so much pain that she elbowed herself on the bed and trembled in a cold sweat. Although Keith tried to ease it for her as quickly as possible, it was heartbroken for him to see her suffer.

When they finally relieved the pain, Cathryn would lean back and lie down, and Keith, lying behind her, would hold her tight in his arms, letting her weight rest on his body, kissing her neck and whispering, “You are doing great.”

Pregnancy is indeed a purgatory for women.

Food reactions, morning sickness, cramps… Cathryn had gone through all kinds of hardship as a young woman.

In spite of this, however, when she touched her bulged belly and felt the little one inside, everything became a joy.

“Oww,” Cathryn screamed.

Keith went instantly alert and hurried up. “What’s wrong?”

Cathryn, somewhat surprised to see him so nervous, smiled sweetly. She pulled his hand on her abdomen with radiance on her face.

“It’s moving.”

Keith’s heart swayed, and an unspeakable joy spread to his whole body, along with her soft, whispering voice. His large palm rested on the belly, and suddenly, in the center of his hand, where it touched the belly, met a swift beat like a small hammer.

His face instantly softened, and Keith felt touched in his heart as well. He looked up at her and met her eyes scrutinizing him. They laughed cheerfully when their eyes met, and they rejoiced in each other’s arms filled with them.

“I love you.” Keith kissed her with all his emotions.

Cathryn smiled and responded to his kiss while whispering, “I love you too.”

Two months before Cathryn was in the store, Keith stayed with her at home and only went to the company in rare cases. His friend and business partner Jeremy had his share of opinions but ended up being happy for him for the true love he found. After making a promise to Keith, Jeremy works almost 24-7 in the office.

The man in love still wakes up early at home and leaves the bedroom after carefully placing a cushion against her back. He used this time to deal with some paperwork and video meetings.

This morning, not long after Keith got up, Cathryn was woken up by her phone ringing. After reaching a hand in vain for a long while, she opened her eyes and sat up with the now huge belly on the bed.

It was from Grace. She took the call.

“Cathryn!” her friend cried aloud as soon as she heard the answer.

“Yeah, what’s up in the early morning?” Cathryn was not very pleased and asked with a nasal voice.

“I’m getting married!” She said, unable to conceal her happiness and laughter.

“What?” Cathryn woke up grinning,” When? Why are you so rushed?”

As long as she knew, Grace and Hale were only dating for a few months. There must be a lot of passion that they’d want to marry each other so quickly. She’s happy that her best friend has found her Mr. Right.

Grace was talking over there nevertheless, and her voice was full of joy. Cathryn looked out of the window as the sun was shining inside, she felt bright and pure in her heart.
