Mr. CEO, I Was Forced To Be Your Wife! Chapter 146
Ethan's POV I dropped my phone after sending the last text. She finally replied to the order I sent from my fake account days ago. I almost forgot I even dropped a message. I had my secretary send the money from her personal account because I didn’t want my name to appear on the transaction.It’s evening already, and I should be on my way home, but I just wish the day didn’t end. I badly don’t want to go back to that lonely house. Getting to sleep was a hard thing last night. I ended up doing half of today’s work in the middle of the night, and I still didn’t sleep until morning. It feels like a hassle even going home when I can just stay here overnight. I had to drag myself up and walk over to the door.I met Lucas on my way to the elevator. He had just stood up from his seat.“What are you still doing at work?” I asked, raising one of my eyebrows. We both got into the elevator, and he pressed the button for the ground floor.“I was rounding up some things. To think that I was on m

Annelise's POV I woke up with one intention on my mind, I needed to see my father concerning my mother. I've thought about it all night and I came to the conclusion of talking something out with him.I did my morning routine quickly and decided to make breakfast today since Esther was still sleeping, so I settled on making waffles. I mixed the ingredients and soon put everything in the waffle maker. I sipped on my tea as I waited for it to be done with my back resting on the kitchen's cabinet.I had thought about it all night and have decided to carry out an investigation myself on the person that hit my mother and the events that really unfolded.This is because the more I think about it, the more I get convinced that it wasn't just an ordinary hit, it all looks planned.The waffle was soon done and I brought them out, putting Esther's on a plate too because I know she's going to come out of her room anytime soon, I've heard sounds coming from her room already.I sat down to eat my

Annelise's POV The door was pushed open from inside, and I tried my best to appear normal. I wasn't going to act like I was nervous so as not to look weak.It happened to be Anastasia who answered the door, her eyes going straight to my protruding stomach. It was almost as if she didn't know that I was pregnant.“This is the reason I've not been seeing you everywhere with him again! And I thought you guys divorced or something." She used her hand to cover her mouth as if to suppress a gasp and shock.“Can I come in?" I asked instead, getting annoyed by her fake shock already. There’s no way she doesn’t know about it.“Of course, I can't keep the carrier of a Harrington standing." She stepped aside for me to come in.I walked into the house eventually, my father sitting on the big couch, sipping coffee and scrolling through his phone. I guess I did successfully wake him up."Good morning, Father,” I said as I walked further into the house."Annelise," he said curtly as he took his eye

Mr Simon“No."Her face contorted in a frown with how sharp my response was but I cared less. That's the only leverage I have over her at the moment and I'm not going to let it go just like that.“Why are you even doing this? I'm paying the bills now just like you wanted, but you still won't tell me where my mother is being held, it's just not fair." That did nothing to crack me, it just can't. I still have one last step before I drop her case, but right now, I can't tell her where her mother is so she won't act as the obstruction to the plans I've been on for more than a decade. "I'll tell you on my own accord, what you should be doing now is sending the hospital bill and nothing more. Your mother is responding to treatment and fine." I said.She stood up with anger evident on her face, she looked so furious right now but I kept a straight face, not moved by her facial expression at all.“I wish my mother never met you so I wouldn't have to be your daughter in the first place, it's
Mr. CEO, I Was Forced To Be Your Wife! Chapter 150
Annelise's POV I ran out of the house with a racing heart, I had no idea that this morning would be a disastrous one. I had only gone back to get my phone because I found out that I had forgotten it.Hearing him say he wanted to transfer the company's real ownership made she stop myself from opening the door because I wanted to hear everything.But what I heard next was even worse, the person I grew up to know as my father isn't even my real father.I didn't know if I should be happy about that piece of information, or I should just be heartbroken. I feel so indifferent right now, I got into the cab I hailed before.“Sorry for keeping you waiting." I said to the driver as I got in. We were at the end of the street when I realized that I didn't take my phone.I was lucky to have seen the cab when it was dropping off someone before I waved it down, that's the main reason I didn't notice my phone wasn't with me earlier.It was when I wanted to bring out the phone to make a call that I r

Annelise's POV I couldn't hold back the tears, I didn't even try to rein them in, I just let them flow freely from my eyes.The last day I saw her was at that party we both went with my fa- Simon, that was also the last time I felt the feeling of being in a family, it has been a lonely life since then.I walked over to her side and sat down on the chair, I held her hand in mine and it just felt all right again. Her hands that used to caress my face and wipe away my tears since I was a kid.It felt like I was holding onto a really valuable substance, which it was. The oxygen mask on her nose and the monitors with other engines around her were the only things supporting her right now.Then I knew how dangerous it was when she was here with only Simon knowing where she was. He could come in here and disconnect the machines. Someone who's capable of pretending to be my father is as crazy as that.“Mom." The word came out of my mouth like a whisper. It's been long since I said that one w

Ethan's POV I was busy with work when a call from an unknown number came through. I ignored it at first, but the caller was persistent, so I picked it up out of frustration.“Hey Ethan,” said a familiar voice.“Who is this?”“This is Esther, Annelise's friend.”“Oh, hi Esther. I hope there's no problem. You've been really persistent with the calls,” I said.“It's Annelise.” I stood up immediately, alarmed by her tone."What's wrong with her? Is something the matter?" I bombarded her with questions.“I don't know if she's okay,” she replied.“What do you mean by you don't know?” I asked, my face etched with worry.“I've been trying to reach her, but her line isn't reachable. I dropped her off at her father's this morning. I just called him, and he said she left hours ago.""Did she tell you she was going anywhere else?” I asked, running my hand through my hair."If she did, I'd be at that place right now."True, but I couldn't think of anything at the moment. Annelise isn't the type t
Mr. CEO, I Was Forced To Be Your Wife! Chapter 153
Annelise's POVI was on the phone with Esther when I saw Ethan walk in. A smile adorned my face the moment I saw him. I almost didn't believe him when he said he was nearly at the hospital.“Can we talk later? He's here," I said to Esther, who agreed to call me back.“Hey, you're here already," I said as I dropped my phone. Ethan looked like he wanted to hug me but kept his arms to himself. I could tell from the way his hand twitched.“Yeah, I did tell you I was around the corner, right?" If it wasn't that he rarely smiles, I'd have called the expression on his face a little smile, but knowing Ethan, this is the most he could manage.“You did…” I trailed off.“What are you doing here, by the way? This is a specialist hospital," he asked, looking around.“I came to see my mother. My father eventually told me where she’s being treated, and that happens to be this hospital,” I said.The little smile on his face disappeared almost immediately, and he looked suddenly serious.“Have you see
