Mr. CEO, I Was Forced To Be Your Wife! Chapter 57
Ethan's POVThe moment I entered the house, I had the feeling that something was wrong somewhere. I looked around the living room, trying to take in some details that were out of place.Almost immediately, I heard rushed footsteps coming downstairs. I knew instantly that it was Anastasia; I don't know why, but my heart started beating a little bit faster in anticipation of seeing her.When she came into view, I realized that this wasn't the same Anastasia I had left at home. Her eyes were huge and looked kind of scared.“Where have you been?" she hiccuped.“I've been out. What's the problem?" I asked, almost frowning."I was… I was so scared. I thought th—that something was wrong with you too," she stuttered, tears brimming in her eyes.“Scared of what? I'm right here before you. Did anything happen to you? Did anyone touch you? Did they come in? Where's Max?" I bombarded her with questions.At that point, I didn't even remember that I was also trying to settle some things personally;

Annelise's POVWe were soon done with eating, or when he was done with eating since I've been done with eating for a while now and was barely just watching him eat.“You still didn't eat much,” he said with a frown on his face, his eyebrows pulled together.Truth is I've been feeling really nauseous since afternoon. If I ate more than I've done already, I'd just end up throwing up all over the place.“I'm okay, I had a large lunch, that should be the reason,” I lied, keeping up a little smile on my face.I took my plate to the kitchen, not even bothering with his since I know fully well that he won't allow me to help him.I yawned almost immediately after we were done in the kitchen. The only thing I was thinking of was to sleep on my bed till tomorrow. I felt so tired.“It's not fully night yet, and you're feeling sleepy already. Is everything okay?” He asked me.Who would have thought that Ethan was an observer too? He seemed to have noticed that I don't sleep early.“I'm really tir

Annelise's POV “Welcome to my room."I looked around the room once more, taking in the distinct features of the room, the bed was a simple one, though it could conveniently contain two people at once.“It's cozy." I commented.He only nodded, walking over to the part of the room that looks like the closet.I watched as he came out of there with some piece of clothing in his hand.“Why are you still standing? You can use the bed.” He said when he saw me standing in the middle of the room.“Uh, can I use the bathroom?” I asked, I didn't use the one in my room because I thought he wouldn't want to wait and I was too scared to stay there alone."I thought you were never going to ask.” He said, glancing at the clothes clutched to my chest."You can, I'll go in after you.” He added, pointing at the door that led to the bathroom.I walked towards the bathroom while he brought out his laptop.His bathroom is another place that smells too much like him, probably because the soap he uses too i

Ethan's POV I watched as she faced the wall and drew the covers till it covered her whole body.Anastasia could be so funny and cute at the same time, the look on her face when she realized that she was drooling was priceless.I watched her for a while then turned around, leaving her alone to sleep. I turned around and went to seat down on the chair opposite the study table in the room where I work once in a while.I checked to see if Rex had sent the footage I told him to send and he had sent it, I clicked on it, giving it all my attention. I intently watched it to see that there was basically nothing there.The only thing there was just the surrounding and Rex going around the house a few time.When I watched the footage of the camera right outside the room Anastasia stays, it was almost the same as the one outside, the only thing there was when she walked in and out of the room.I heaved a sigh of relief when I saw that there was nothing there too, the tension in my shoulders rele

Annelise's POVI wasn't sure if he would do what I had just asked, but I heard his breath hitch. I almost palmed my own face, wondering why I had asked that question.All I knew was that I was cold, and I hadn't intended to ask him that; it just came out.He didn't reply with words, but his actions spoke clearly.I felt myself being turned around and then spooned by him. I was shocked at first that he was actually holding me.My head rested directly beneath his chin, and his strong arms wrapped around me, making me feel safe and comfortable.I eventually relaxed in his hold, and my breathing normalized. Ethan and I didn't speak until I drifted off to sleep again.~I woke up feeling something strong holding me down. Having gotten used to sleeping alone, I initially freaked out, but I relaxed again when I caught the familiar scent I was beginning to get used to.His embrace was warm and unchanged from before I fell asleep, as if neither of us had moved during the night.I didn’t turn a

Ethan's POVI stared at my phone's screen, watching the three dots dance, indicating that she was typing.“It’s really nice, thank you. I didn't know you cook,” she texted back, with an emoji that looked like a smirk accompanying the last line.There was really nothing I had to say after that; I just sent a sticker that looked offended.“You use stickers too?!" she sent back.What did she take me for? An old man who lives under a rock? I mightn't be someone who constantly chats on my phone, but I do know the basics of chatting.“Of course."Just as I sent the last text, Rex informed me that we had arrived at the office. I stepped out of the car with my phone in hand and started walking towards the building.Upon entering my office, I saw Lucas pacing. That's never good news.“Welcome," he said, running towards me. He was about to say something else, but I stopped him.“Allow me to enter the office first, then you can tell me the bad news,” I said, walking past him."How did you even k

Annelise's POV Ethan has been acting really weird for days now, I barely even see him again. Most times he would have gone to work before I woke up and would come late at night when I'm asleep.Today is Saturday and I could only wish that he isn't planning on going to work, a part of me misses him already.After doing my morning routine, I started going downstairs. My stomach was grumbling in hunger as though I didn't have dinner last night.I don't seem to understand my appetite these days. I wouldn't feel like eating at all on some days and some days I'd feel like eating the whole world.When I got downstairs, I saw Angela in the kitchen making food. She spared me a glance and looked away after mumbling a greeting.I found out that she had the week off from the day Ethan made breakfast for me, she resumed yesterday.“Breakfast would soon be ready, please take your seat at the dining table." She said with all her attention on the omelet she was making. This new version of Angela is

Ethan's POVShe still kept looking at me like I've suddenly grown two extra heads and had two horns with it.“That didn't justify that, it's not like I'm dying." She said. “It looked like that in case you care to know." I replied with an eyebrow raised.I was about to drive in this huge rain for her and this is what I got in return? "I hope you're good now and you don't need a doctor anymore.” She sighed and walked towards me, "Don't get me wrong, I wasn't saying you shouldn't do all these, just not at the detriment of your own health.”"That's for me to be worried about and not you.” I replied in a clipped tone.“Here we go again." She mumbled under her breath.“I really appreciate you, but who would take care of me when you also get sick or anything happens to you too?” Her big black eyes stared right into mine.I chuckled dryly, "Nothing's going to happen to me." I can't even remember the last time I fell sick, maybe when I was ten? Eleven? “You're so proud." She said, laughing

Chapter One Hundred and Seventy-Five: AnneliseOne Month LaterMy life had finally returned to how it was in the beginning before everything started, but now it felt more peaceful. I remembered the discussion I had with my mom when I asked about my real father, and she finally told me the truth.My biological dad had passed away, and she had remarried to avoid bringing disgrace to her family. She hadn’t told me because she thought everything was fine. I sat on the kitchen counter, enjoying kiwi and peanut butter. I hummed excitedly, swinging my legs gently. It was the most delicious thing I’d eaten.“Want some?” I offered Ethan, who looked at it with disgust.“No, I’m good.” Suddenly, tears welled up in my eyes. Ethan’s widened in panic.“I was just kidding. Of course, I want to eat it, but I’m worried it’s not enough for you,” he said hastily.I narrowed my eyes at him. “Are you sure? Or do you just not want any?”“Of course, I’m sure,” he replied, his face breaking into an uncharac

Ethan's POV Lucas had called me urgently this morning, informing me to be at the company. He didn’t elaborate much, and I was left wondering what was happening.I stood in the elevator, which was taking me to the top floor. I don’t know why, but I felt something was about to change. The soft chime of the elevator door sounded, and as it stopped, the door slid open. I stepped out and walked down the hallway into the conference room.Opening the door, I was greeted by the eyes of the board of directors, including Amanda’s. What was she doing here? I saw Lucas come forward to meet me.“What is happening?” I gritted out.“I don’t know either. Madam Amanda called me this morning, telling me we should be present at this sudden conference meeting she had called.” I nodded at him and walked to the front where an empty seat, clearly meant for me, awaited. I sat down.“Most of us know why we are all here, and we have all heard about the scandal. Now, I want to transfer all my shares to Ethan,

Annelise's POV I caressed my bulging stomach gently, with love shining in my eyes. Suddenly, I felt a soft kick against my belly and giggled at the sensation. I could feel my baby's feet pressed against me.Pulling up my top, I exposed my stomach and smiled at the tiny feet. "Naughty baby," I scolded gently. I heard chuckling behind me and turned to see Ethan staring at me with love and admiration in his eyes. I blushed at the sight—it was overwhelming.“Why are you chuckling?” I asked.“It’s beautiful seeing you scold our little one with such love,” he answered, sitting beside me. His gaze shifted to my stomach.He placed his large, cold hand on my belly. As if recognizing it was his father’s touch, our baby kicked hard, causing me to flinch. I shot Ethan a glare. He chuckled sheepishly before sighing. I sensed immediately that something was wrong.“What’s wrong?” I asked, taking his hand in mine.“Amanda has been calling me. I haven’t picked up because honestly, I have nothing to s

Annelise's POV “What are you saying, Annelise?” Ethan asked me.“I'm saying that it was the sex we had that night that made me pregnant. I was confused at first because I didn't remember what really happened that night.”“You're saying that the sex that night led to this pregnancy?” he asked, with a shocked expression on his face.“Yes, Ethan,” I replied, assessing his face to gauge his reaction. He had been happy before at the idea of us having a baby, even though he initially thought it might not be his.The confused look on his face quickly turned into happiness, which was contagious, and I smiled brightly too.He hugged me tightly and showered my face with kisses.“Thank you so much for this beautiful gift, Annelise,” he said."You're welcome. Now give me my food; I'm famished,” I commanded him with a strict look on my face.“Right away, your majesty,” he said as he opened up the plate himself. He started feeding me, and I happily ate the food.I finished everything on the plate

Annelise's POV I jumped on Ethan the moment I saw him at the entrance. His arms were waiting for me already, though my big stomach didn't let me hug him as much as I wanted to.“I missed you so much. When did you get back? Why didn't you tell me that you were coming?” I bombarded him with questions as tears streamed down my face out of happiness."I don't have my phone, remember?” He chuckled close to my ear."Yes, but still,” I trailed off, hugging him even more. I had to break the hug when someone cleared their throat behind us—it was Lucas and Rex.“Welcome back, man,” Lucas said as he patted Ethan on the back.“Thanks, and I appreciate you for helping out with everything,” Ethan replied, and they did that weird men hug.“You don't even know if I helped her out with it or not,” Lucas chuckled.“I know you'd always turn up for things like this. I don't need to hear it before I do; you're a real one,” Ethan said to Lucas."You're always welcome,” Ethan replied, and Rex greeted him t

Annelise's POV It's Monday now, and I have everything I need for revealing the truth ready. I was assisted by both Lucas and Esther, and I just want the DMZ meeting to be over so I'll have Ethan back.It's time for the event to start, and I didn't bother to disguise to enter the building even though paparazzi were outside in abundance.It's just a plus that I decided to come with both Max and Lucas, and since they're both registered in the company, they were allowed to go through the backdoor.It's afternoon at the moment, and I have anxiety churning in my stomach. I kept reminding myself that I was doing this for Ethan, and I didn't need to think about the crowd that I'd face.“I'll be there with you in that conference room so you'll have a familiar face with you. You don't need to be scared of anyone; just do your thing and let the media do the rest,” Lucas said before we got out of the car.“Thank you so much for everything you've done, Lucas. I really appreciate you, and I'm sure

Ethan's POV Annelise and I woke up to news about me flying around. It's the same thing that Ken has been using to threaten me before. It was the cuss word from my mouth that woke up Annelise.Though it's still afternoon, we both slept off hours after coming back from the hospital as we didn't sleep overnight normally.She sat up on the bed almost immediately after I cussed out loud, with her eyes still partly closed. She used her hand to wipe her eyes as though she was trying to wipe the sleep away.“What happened?" she asked as her eyes came clear.“Uh, it's… nothing. You can go back to sleep. I'm going to take care of it now.” I rushed out of bed, and she rushed behind me too.“Ethan, did anything happen with anyone? That didn't look like nothing back there at all,” she said behind me, successfully following me into the bathroom.I sighed out loud. "It's Ken. He released the news about me hitting someone, and it's everywhere on the internet now," I rushed out the words to her.“He

Ken's POV I've been reeling with joy since I was announced as the new highest shareholder of the company, automatically making me the owner of some sort.I honestly expected more from Ethan in terms of competition for the contract and all, but he seemed to be focused on another thing other than anything concerning the company these days, and that worked in my mercy.It could be because he's now separated from his wife, but I didn't care. All that matters now is that I'm way higher than him in rank, and he's below me.I've been trying all my life to achieve that, but he always manages to be one step ahead of me each time I try to surpass him.He was married to someone I like, and he's known by more businessmen and people as the one with the brains for business, while I'm the trophy grandson.I wonder how he feels right now with his most prized possession not with him anymore; he's probably about to commit suicide.A cruel smile came up on my face at the last thing I thought; dying is

Annelise's POV I was able to get to the hospital in no time, signed the final documents for the transfer, and it was all processed quickly.It wasn't that stressful because my father had already signed me on as one of her guardians, so it wasn't hard for me to arrange her move to another facility.All that's left is the actual moving, which is scheduled for tomorrow. I was told it couldn't be done today as all the paperwork needs to go through the final stages to reach the desired hospital.When I was done at the hospital and had spent some time with my mother, I went to the car dealership as I had told Ethan. I've been keeping him updated on everything that's been happening.He was replying to the messages up until the last one I sent, which I took as him ignoring it because of the argument we had about it last night.I went there and made inquiries on some of the budget-friendly cars they had. I ended up with a nice car that had some great features and was within my price range.Th
