I looked over at the kids, who were playing happily, and I felt a sense of peace wash over me. Franco returned to the table, looking a bit flustered. “I have something important to take care of at my penthouse,” he said. I nodded, trying to hide my disappointment. “It's time to go home, kids,” I said to the little ones. “What? But I thought you were going to stay with us all day,” Celine pouted. I felt a twinge of guilt, but I knew I had to get home.Franco knelt down in front of Celine, looking him straight in the eye. “I have something essential to do at home, and I need to go take care of it,” he said gently. “Okay,” Celine said, his bottom lip quivering.

I dressed for work, choosing a sharp, professional outfit that would command respect. Then, I headed out the door and got in my car. As I drove to the office, I prayed that Diva would be unavailable today, so I could focus on my mission without any distractions. I needed to succeed. “Good morning,” I said to the receptionist as I signed in.“Good morning,” she replied, smiling. “Is the CEO around?” I asked. “Yes, she's in her office,” the receptionist said.My disappointment must have been obvious because the receptionist's expression turned to concern. “Is everything all right?” she asked, her brow furrowed.

The CEO And His Ex Contracted Wife What do you want to tell me
Ivery’s POV.“Ladies first,” he said with a sly smile. I nodded, taking a deep breath. I reached into my purse and pulled out my phone, my hands shaking slightly.

The CEO And His Ex Contracted Wife You go first
Ivery’s POV.Franco's behavior had been puzzling me for a while. He seemed to be acting differently, but I couldn't tell if I was just imagining things or if there was something actually going on. He had been spending more time with the kids, and sporadically they even slept over. Was I reading too much into it, or was there something more going on?

I nodded, my mind whirling with thoughts and questions. “When do you think the transplant was?” I asked, trying to put the pieces together.

Franco’s POV.I stared at the report, my eyes scanning the words, but unable to make sense of it. The medical jargon was confusing and unfamiliar.

But his words did nothing to ease my anxiety. I felt overwhelmed and confused.“How’s this possible?” I asked confused.“ Because you are the father of the child,” he said.I let out a sarcastic laugh. “How can I be the father of the child?” I asked incredulously. “Does this doctor understand how biology works?” My voice was tinged with anger and disbelief. It was impossible, I was sure of it. But the doctor looked at me calmly, and said, “I understand your skepticism, but there is no doubt that you are the father of this child. Your DNA matches perfectly.” I felt my world spinning, my mind reeling. How could this be?“Ivery told me that she wasn't the mother of the kids,” I said, my
