All Chapters of Ex Mistress Pregnant By The Arrogant CEO: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Cat had an awful night. Now she was more awake, everything hurt and because of the babies; they haven’t been able to give her anything to help with the pain. The hospital staff also told her the best thing was rest. Tell that to her aching body.By mid-morning, Cat had a parade of visitors. Jack and Dawn came first, arriving as Eric was leaving. He kissed her warmly, saying. “I’ll be back in the hour.”On his return, he set up his laptop in the corner so he could keep an eye on her. She was more awake now, but he was making sure she didn’t overtax herself.After Jack and Dawn left to go have lunch. Allison arrived with Jo. They spent an hour together. It must’ve cost Jo, but she said nothing about Claudia. Cat knew once Jo got her alone, Jo would expect her to tell her everything.Cat found out Tilly was filling in for her at the office, and Allison was very pleased. Cat smiled; glad Allison had someone helping her.Then Eric stepped out of the room to make a few calls. The police arri

Cat was so excited to go home she was almost bursting. Eric wouldn’t let her pack her own things up. So, she sat on the bed and watched him. He permitted her to dress herself with his assistance. He had brought in sweats for her to go home in. Easy to put on and remove. As she was slipping on her shoes, Eric made sure he had everything from the bathroom. He had only just placed her packed bag on the bed when the nurse came in with her release papers. Cat happily signed them.“Here is the paperwork for at home care. Should you have questions, call the hospital or book an appointment with your GP.” Cat grinned a thanks at the nurse, about to take the paperwork offered. But Eric beat her to it.“It’s like you don’t trust me.” Cat gave Eric a suspicious look.Eric denied nothing, just said. “When it comes to your health and that of the babies, I’m making it my responsibility until you are back on your feet.”The nurse laughed and left the room, only to return with a wheelchair.“I don’t ne

The next morning. They sat on the balcony that overlook the double bay area. Cat picked up her orange juice, looking at Eric as he read the morning paper. They had just enjoyed a leisurely Sunday breakfast. Dawn had taken herself off early to do some shopping before heading home to Cowra after lunch.It was time for the anticipated fight she knew she was going to have with Eric. Cat couldn’t put it off any longer. “I’m going back to work tomorrow.”Her statement made Eric’s head snap up. “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”“My doctor cleared me to go, Eric. So, unless you’re firing me, I’m going. I will not be stuck at home barefoot and pregnant. I must properly train Tilly for the role. It’s not like my job has any heavy lifting. I will not sit at home and do nothing. You have an option to get with the program.” Cat smiled at Eric before adding. “Or I’ll get your mother involved.” That was her trump card. Eric’s mother had worked until the last few weeks of her pregnancy.Eric angrily

Cat was working at her desk the next day when Tilly took a call from reception.“Cat, it’s for you.” Tilly let her know after putting the call on hold.Cat looked up from the contract she was vetting. Smiling at Tilly, Cat lifted the phone to take the call. “Cat Sinc… Logan speaking.” Oops, she needed to get used to using her married name. The problem was, for years, she had used Sinclair.“Hi Mrs Logan, we have a lady down here in reception demanding to speak to you.” Came Cathy’s voice over the phone. She was manning the reception desk today with Amanda, who was new and had replaced Tilly.Cat had tried to get the staff to still call her Cat instead of Mrs Logan, because they already had a Mrs Logan in the building, Allison. Other than a handful of people, everyone else insisted on calling her by her married name. Then Cathy said in a quieter tone, as if she didn’t want anyone to overhear her. “She said she is your mother.”Cat frowned. When Cathy had first said a lady, her first tho

Cat stopped where she was with the door opened only a few inches, but the fresh air from outside not mixed with the smell in here was a blessing of relief. Cat left it open and stood in front of the door. facing Eva once more. “How didn’t he know about me? You got pregnant to catch him, right? If he didn’t know, how would that work?”“He was paranoid about birth control? Not only did he ask if I was on the pill, but he used a condom. Anyway, what he didn’t know was I put a hole in the second one we used that night. I wasn’t on the pill. I knew I was pregnant three weeks later. By then, I had found out his family had disowned him. After I called them to talk to him. I ended up speaking to his father. He told me about disowning his son and he wouldn’t pay a cent for any bastard child. So I did the next best thing, or so I thought. Hitched my waggon to the next available thing, thinking he was a safer bet. Well, he wasn’t. He had you DNA tested, found out you were not his and almost beat
