Mr. CEO, I Was Forced To Be Your Wife! Chapter 155
Ethan's POV I dropped Annelise at her friend's apartment after promising to return in the evening so we could visit her mother at the hospital once more. Then I drove back to the office, where Lucas had called to inform me that my private investigator was there to see me. The man looked like he had something very important to tell me.I arrived at the office in no time and asked the investigator to come in with me.“What did you have to tell me?" I asked him straight away.“It's about your wife. I found out that she was at the event that night. She came in around eight pm with her father. She left in the morning, but she had some kind of disagreement with Amanda before leaving.”A disagreement with Amanda? That was surprising. It meant Annelise had met Amanda even before the wedding. What was even more surprising was that Annelise had actually attended the event. Why had she lied to me about it?“What else did you find out?" I asked him.“You both were together that night."A frown

Annelise's POV Esther entered Ethan's car too so she wouldn't waste her car's gas because we were all going to the same place.Ethan entered the car first while Esther and I followed suit. I don't know if I'm just being paranoid, but Ethan looked angry; the way his hand was on the steering wheel confirmed that, and I frowned. Was it a problem at work? He didn't say a word till we got to the hospital. The look on his face wasn't a friendly one at all. He got out of the car first, then came to open my door with that sullen look on his face. I wasn't the only one who noticed; Esther did too.“What's wrong with him? He's acting really weird,” she asked after Ethan had gone ahead, walking really fast."I don't know either. He hasn't said a word to me,” I whispered as we both walked directly behind him.We all got into the hospital and put down our names with the lady at the desk.I led us to the room my mother was being held in, with nervousness and anxiety building up inside me again.

Ethan's POV “Bring him in!" I ordered my men over the phone. I sat on my office chair with a stony expression on my face. It was the morning after I went to the hospital with Annelise.I had instructed my men to go after Simon and ensure he was brought to me. I didn't care how they did it; all I knew was that they were currently at the parking lot with him.I waited almost impatiently for him to be brought in. Minutes later, they came in, dragging him by the collar. His hands were bound, and a cloth was placed over his mouth.“Thank you. You can all wait outside while I deal with him," I told my men, and they left me alone with Simon.I stood up from my chair almost immediately after they were gone. I was furious, and all I wanted was to bash his face in, but I needed to ask him certain questions first. Then I could decide what to do with him if he didn't comply.I removed the cloth from his mouth, and he yelled immediately. I laughed at how stupid he was.“Are you this dumb, or can

Annelise's POV I looked at him with my heart pounding in my chest. I should have known he was going to find out regardless of how much I lied that day.“I attended that event that night." I voiced out.A stone expression was on his face, “Why did you lie?” He asked."I'm sorry.” I mumbled with an apologetic look on my face."Are you? You had all the time since that day for you to tell me the truth, but you didn't. You made me feel like i was crazy because I was so sure that you were there?” He walked around the room with his hand going wild in his hair.“You know what's even more iconic? It's the fact that you looked so convincing that you didn't come. Why did you even lie? Did you connive with your father that night?" He asked.I knew no amount of apologies could make up for the number of times I'd lied to him since we knew each other. I now understood why Simon called me a coward. Instead of facing my issues head-on, I lied my way out of them.“I didn't connive with my father on an

Annelise's POV Right, I was telling him about how this pregnancy came about before we were interrupted yesterday, and now that there's no longer an interruption, it's just us now."Right, where was I?" I guess it's just time for us to talk about that night."You were talking about—" once again, we got interrupted by his phone. Even I internally cussed. It's now starting to look like the whole universe was against us at this point.“I’m turning this sh*t off now.” He cussed out angrily then long-pressed the power button. He threw the phone on the table; I'm sure that's going to leave a crack on the screen.I opened my mouth to talk again but was interrupted by my own phone. We both looked at one another then I looked at my own phone.“It’s a strange number," I mumbled as I picked up the phone."Can I see it? It might be the same person trying to reach me; I can recognize the number.” He said, and I raised up the phone to his eyes."It's the same one. Do you know it?" He asked, and I

Ethan's POVOne of my men was standing before me, looking really uncomfortable."You still haven't said anything. Do you mind leaving now?" I asked him after he just stood there.He sighed loudly. “There's an update concerning the accident from that night,” he said.I lifted up my head from the work I was doing. “What's the update?" I asked him, trying not to look like I was anxious and really wanted to know what he wanted to say.“We found out that Ken was at the scene of the accident, and I also got an eyewitness who was there. He said he only knows that the victim of the accident was in a coma.”"The eyewitness knows that?” I asked."Yes, he said the accident was pretty severe. He heard from a few people later that she's in a coma,” he replied.This just keeps getting even more serious. I can't remember driving that night, much less hitting someone. Besides, I didn't know that I was in the car with Ken normally.All I know is that for him to have lied that she was dead, he has been

Annelise's POV We moved into the house yesterday, two days after we both went to check it out. Life has been pretty normal since then; it's almost like the whole world doesn't matter when we're in the house.I chose a simple but beautiful house, nothing like the grandness of the other house. It's the kind of house that just looks like one normal couples would stay in.It's just that it was still in an estate, built for rich people. Ethan said we can't go lower than that because of his status, and this one just happens to be the simplest of the houses.We're currently in the kitchen, arguing about who cooks dinner tonight.“No, Ethan. I'm pregnant and not docile. I can work, and I'm making dinner tonight," I said in a strict voice.“What if you hurt yourself or something else happens? I won't be able to forgive myself. All I ask is that you relax.”I gritted out, "I'm not a baby, Ethan. And unless you want to see the wrath of a pregnant woman, you'll allow me to cook tonight.”The gla

Ethan's POV I saw Annelise's text that said she was going to the former house for something while I was in the meeting. I couldn't reply or call her right then as they were very important clients.But I knew that for her to have gone back to the house, it must be for something important. When I was done with the meeting, I dialed her number, but she wasn't picking up.The meeting lasted for up to four hours, so it's evening now. She should be back from the house already. On my way home, I dialed her number again, and she picked up this time.“Hey, I've been trying to reach you. Is everything okay?" I asked immediately she answered the call."Yes, I was sleeping, and I didn't hear it ring,” she replied.“Oh, I'm sorry for waking you up. I wanted to know if you're back from the house. I received your text," I said to her."I woke up before you called now, and I came back from the house this afternoon. There's something you need to know, though,” she said.“What's that?" I connected the
