The CEO's Unwanted Wife Chapter 20
Exiting the doctor's chamber, Evelyn's mind was in turmoil. She wondered how she would tell Alaric about her pregnancy. Deep down, she knew Alaric would not want to have a child with her, given their crumbling relationship.Lost in her thoughts, Evelyn's steps paused, and she found herself clutching the report tightly with one hand while protecting her belly with the other. She muttered to herself, "What if he asks me to abort this child?"The mere thought of abortion made Evelyn's heart ache and bleed.___________Amidst the chaotic, honking cars on the road, Evelyn's mind was in disarray. Unbeknownst to her, tears streamed down her cheeks. Wiping them away, she looked at the report once more, contemplating her next move. Just then, a voice called out from behind, causing her to freeze in fear."Evelyn?"Evelyn turned around, horrified to see Kevin, Alaric's best friend, standing there.Kevin's voice was laced with suspicion as he questioned her, "What are you doing in front of a hos

She nodded slowly, confirming Kevin's suspicion.Knowing Alaric well, Kevin understood that he would never want a child at this point in his life. He cleared his throat, trying to find the right words, before finally asking, "Does Alaric know about this?"Evelyn wiped away her tears with a trembling hand and shook her head, imploring Kevin, "Please don't tell him. I beg you, he will want to get rid of the child."Sighing deeply, Kevin knew he had to do something. He reached into his pocket, grabbing his phone, and dialed a number. With a concerned tone, he spoke into the receiver, "Hey buddy, I'm sorry but there's an emergency I need to deal with. I'll catch up with you later."After hanging up, Kevin turned his attention back to Evelyn, his face filled with an unknown emotion. "Let's have a talk," he suggested.Evelyn looked at him in conf

"What do you mean?" Evelyn questioned.Kevin began to explain, "Jeremy, Dianna's older brother, was Alaric's bodyguard. When Alaric was around eleven years old, he was almost killed by enemies of the Pritzker family. Jeremy took a bullet for him and died to save his life. Jeremy's last request was for Alaric to take care of his only family, his baby sister, Dianna. Since then, Alaric has carried immense guilt for Jeremy's death and has treated Jeremy's family as his own. Alaric started spending more time with Dianna to ease her grief and ensure she didn't feel her brother's absence, he also sponsored everything for her. Dianna, too, supported Alaric tremendously, and on her eighteenth birthday, she proposed to him. Out of care for her, Alaric ended up promising to marry her and care for her for the rest of her life, not truly understanding the meaning of love. However, Alaric's parents didn't approve of Dianna as their daughter-in-law due to their status."Evelyn offered a sad smile a

A year later,Evelyn took a deep breath and walked into the living room where Alaric was sitting, his eyes glued to his laptop. She could feel her temperature rising, as she had a fever, but she didn't want to go to the hospital alone. She cleared her throat softly, trying to get his attention. He barely glanced up before dismissing her with a wave of his hand. "What do you want?" Alaric asked coldly, his eyes still fixed on the screen. Evelyn bit her lip, "I feel feverish.""And?" Alaric asked, emotionlessly "I was hoping you could accompany me to the hospital." She answered Alaric heaved a sigh without lifting his eyes from the screen, "I have a meeting to attend right now. Go with Bryan if you must."Evelyn bit her lower lip, the tears pricking at the corner of her eyes. This was not the response she was hoping for.

"I'm okay, just a little unwell.""What's wrong?" Arvin questioned, his tone serious."I just caught a fever," Evelyn replied."A fever?! That's terrible.

Morning, Azure Villa,Evelyn slowly opened her eyes, feeling a sense of warmth. She sat up on the couch and looked around the living room. The room was still dim, but she could see the sun peeking through the curtains. She rubbed her eyes and looked down, noticing a soft blanket covering her. She was surprised by this and wondered who could have done it.Evelyn lazily picked her phone from the table and checked the time. It was already 10 am. Her body felt much better after a long nap. She thought about her husband, but she knew that he would never do something like that for her. Alaric was cold-hearted and distant since their marriage began.Evelyn shook off the idea that Alaric could have covered her with the blanket and thought that one of the servants must have done it. She sat on the couch, wrapping the blanket around herself.Meanwhile,Alaric rubbed his eyes, trying to shake off the sleep as he stepped out of his bedroom. He turned around and walked towards the living room, hea

"I won't sign the papers, Alaric! I won't let you go to Dianna," Evelyn exclaimed, standing up from her seat and looking straight into Alaric's eyes.Alaric remained stoic, almost robotic in his response. "You don't have to worry, Evelyn. I will make sure to offer you a good alimony. Just name what you want.""I won't hand my husband over to another woman!" Evelyn shouted, "I don't care about any damn alimony!"Alaric was surprised to see the gentle Evelyn getting aggressive like this. However, he did not lose his composure. He leaned back in his seat, crossing his arms. "Why are you so determined to stay in this loveless marriage? I'm willing to give you a generous alimony. What more do you want?"Evelyn's eyes grew teary. "Because I love you, Alaric Pritzker. I always have and always will. I'll keep trying until you accept me."Alaric was taken aback by her sudden confession but quickly regained his composure. "I've promised Dianna that I'll marry her. What about that?" He stood up

At noon, Evelyn rushed to the bathroom sink and began to vomit again. She gagged as she threw up everything she had for breakfast, feeling utterly uneasy.After washing her face, she stumbled back to her bedroom. As she sat down on the edge of her bed, she took out her phone and opened the calendar.Her eyes widened with concern as she muttered to herself, "My period is late." She quickly stood up, panicked, and hurriedly opened her drawer to check for her intact packet of birth control pills. Upon realizing that she hadn't been taking them regularly, she mumbled, "Oh shit, this can't be happening."Evelyn frantically grabbed her purse and rushed out of her house. Outside, she flagged down a taxi and hopped inside, gasping, "Please drive me to the nearest hospital."As the taxi sped towards the hospital, Evelyn was still in a state of shock. She spoke to herself in a low voice, "How could I be so careless?"______________________________________________________________Two hours lat

The morning sun slowly filtered in through the window, casting a warm glow on the living room floor where Evelyn laid sound asleep. She was jolted awake by a gentle shake and the sound of her butler, Kenny's soft voice. Blinking her eyes and wincing because of the severe headache, she struggled to sit up."Madam, please wake up. Are you okay?" Kenny asked, his voice laced with concern as he knelt down by her side.Evelyn blinked her eyes several times to clear her head before looking around, trying to piece together what happened last night. As her gaze fell on the now-clean floor, she felt a pang of guilt for making Kenny clean up the mess."I'm sorry for making you clean up the mess," she said softly.Kenny shook his head gently, his eyes still filled with worry, "No, madam, please don't apologize. I wanted to place you somewhere more comfortable, but I was forbidden to touch you. I didn't want to anger Sir."Evelyn let out a sad smile in understanding and nodded. "Where is he?" she

"So, you've finally decided to come home?" Alaric was angry, but Evelyn did not seem to understand why her so-called husband was waiting for her.Evelyn, clearly drained, simply replied, "I'm too tired for your taunts."Attempting to leave, Evelyn was halted by Alaric, who grabbed her hand and pulled her closer.A demanding tone filled Alaric's voice as he asked, "It's 1 am. Where have you been since morning?"An irritated expression on her face, Evelyn replied, "I said I'm tired."Alaric felt his anger building up, but his gaze shifted to the dried bloodstain on Evelyn's forehead. Curiosity took over, and he gently inquired, "How did you get this injury?"Alaric reached out to touch the wound, but Evelyn slapped Alaric's hand away, defiance in her eyes. "It's none of your business," she retorted.Alaric furrowed his brow and released his grip on her. Calming himself, he repeated his question, this time with a mix of fury and concern."Where have you been, Evelyn?" He asked.Respondi

Alaric was dropping Dianna off at her home after they visited the hospital. As he helped her with the seat belts, he asked, "Is your leg okay?""Luckily it wasn't a sprain." Dianna smiled, "Don't worry, I can walk now thanks to the medication."Alaric nodded, "I'll see you tomorrow, then." Dianna stayed in her seat, motionless. Suddenly, she grabbed Alaric's tie, bringing him close to her and kissing him deeply. However, Alaric didn't respond to the kiss, keeping his lips pursed together.Dianna pulled back, disappointed, and asked, "Why won't you kiss me back?" Alaric looked at her sternly and replied, "We shouldn't be doing this before our marriage. I don't want anyone to see us and make insulting comments about you."Dianna became angry and asked, "You keep telling me that we'll get married, Ric, but when is that going to happen? You still haven't gotten Evelyn to sign the divorce papers."Alaric paused, unsure of what to say. Finally, he cleared his throat and replied, "I did gi

Christian's frown deepened. "This marriage is based on a lot of business deals, Evelyn. You can't just divorce Alaric."Evelyn clenched her fists in frustration, feeling trapped. He took a heavy sigh. "There were a bunch of suitors I had offered you. You rejected everyone because you fell for Alaric. You even dropped your flourishing career and became a full-time housewife. What do you expect me to tell you?"His words hit Evelyn like a ton of bricks, the hurt and disappointment evident on her face."Look, you decided to get married to Alaric, and I didn't refuse you because his status matched ours. Now that you both are planning a divorce because of some mere game of feelings, what do you think will happen to the two companies that have a strong relationship thanks to your marriage?" Christian expressed concern, his words weighing heavily on Evelyn."The only choice you have now is to improve your relationship with Alaric," he said, his tone softer now.Evelyn's eyes welled up with

The sun shone down on the grand exterior of Evelyn's maternal home, the luxurious villa of the Rockefellers, nestled in the heart of the city. As she walked towards the front door, Evelyn was greeted warmly by the servants who had been with her family for years."Welcome back, our young lady. It's good to have you home," greeted the head butler with a smile.Evelyn returned the smile, feeling comforted by the warm reception. "Thank you. It feels good to be home."As she stepped into the foyer, Evelyn was greeted by Freya, the housekeeper, who approached her with a smile. They exchanged a few words."Ms. Freya, where is Dad?" asked Evelyn, sensing the hesitation in the other woman's demeanor."Sir is currently in his study. He is... in a bad mood," replied Freya, her expression reflecting her unease."I see. Please inform him that I'm waiting for him in the living room," said Evelyn, trying to keep her tone steady. "Thank you, Freya."Freya nodded before turning to leave. "Do you want
