All Chapters of THE CEO'S ABANDONED WIFE RETURNS WITH AN HEIR: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

[ Emma ]The ride from the hospital back to the house was awkwardly quiet. None of us spoke to each other. I wouldn't lie, his mother's words hurt me deeply. She despised me for my poor financial condition.She didn't want to had any relation with me. For her, I was a decease. I couldn't say this on Brandon's face but he did the right thing by breaking our ties with her temporarily otherwise she would had added more poison in our lives.I wanted to tressure this initial phase of our marriage with him and a baby might change everything for good or for worse.Kate's words kept ringing in my ears. She warned me of lack of faithfulness. According to her, he'd leave me once he gets bored.I didn't want to dwell on her words but they came back with more force."We have reached home, love." Brandon's soft voice brought me back in the reality from my conflicting thoughts."Sorry, I was sleepy. I didn't realise when we reached." I apologized immediately."It's okay, I know the last twenty four

[ Emma ]His heart melting confession of his past and our promises to each other marked another mile stone in our journey together. I saw a boy in him who had been craving for love and marred by cruelty of those whom he loved unconditionally.I made a promise to myself last night. No matter what comes in our way, I was ready to face any challenge, eager to fight any battle if it means protecting him from the evil living within the humans around him.I woke up early than him. I felt recharged after his massage and a good sleep. I didn't wake him up because he needed to regain his energy first before we start our day. I hadn't seen the house properly so I decided to take a tour by myself after having my morning coffee. It was still very early.The house was of avarage size much to my comfort. I never wished for a castle where only two people lived. I want a home and it was my abode."Ma'am, why don't you visit the music room? It is locked for many years but Mr. Black has a great collect

[ Brandon ]We didn't realize when time flew and we completed two months of our marriage, our togetherness. Our bond grew stronger with passing days. We became inseparable both in office and at the house.Yes, after a long debate with members of board and my parents, I succeeded in securing Emma as the head of the managing department. They were reluctant for two reasons; firstly she was a woman as they thought it was men's monopoly over crucial departments and decision making and secondly, she was very young.The previous heads were men and senior employees of the company but I had faith in her."Brandon, why aren't you answering my calls?" I heard Emma's voice and it forced me to raise my face from the computer screen to her who was standing in front of me with her hands crossed across her chest.She looked more confident and professional in her maroon suit and tight high bun. The reading glasses made her look even sexier."Can we talk, Sir?" She raised her brow, she looked quite fru

[ Emma ]"I can't believe, Mom. You kept it a secret between you and Brandon bro. You both planned this family dinner without telling anyone and since evening I had been asking you the occasion for which you cooked this lavish meal." Elle's exclamation caused us all to chuckle as we seated on the dining table to have our dinner."Brandon called me in the afternoon. He said that they're coming here to meet us and also asked me to not tell you because you have a big mouth and tell your sister." Mom replied her.Ellie grinned sheepishly."So, how is Evangeline and her baby?" Dad asked."They're healthy. The boy is really a cute one." I replied to him while Brandon was busy explaining my younger brother an equation he asked."When are you two planning a baby? I want to see my great grandchild before I die." Grandpa shot the question I had been dreading to face from my own family."Grandpa!" I looked down shyly."He is right, kids. We also want to see your little one." Mom joined him and I

[ Brandon ]"Are you crying?" She cupped my face and tried to look into my eyes which were actually glossy."Please look at me." Her soft voice rang into my ears, it was on the verge of cracking."No, I am not and please go now before I drag you back to our home." I pulled myself out of her embrace. I had a very hard time bidding her a goodbye."Please don't do this to us, Brandon. I won't be able to focus on my work if you give me this face." She said."Please go, Emma. It's really hard for me to let you go. I want to come with you." I let my guards down and showed her my vulnerability without her. She became my weakness."It's not possible, we both know this. Your presence is needed here." She remidned me of what position I held and it felt more like a prison than a opportunity to seize my fortune but it felt like a bane.She hugged me tighly and it was the last nail on my patience. I hugged her back and buried my face in the crook of her neck. My tears flowed without any shame. Thi
