All Chapters of Nurturing the CEO's Baby: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Nathan walked with light steps into his family's luxurious mansion. A smile spread across his lips as he saw a middle-aged woman sitting on the living room sofa, savoring a cup of green tea.His mood was lifted, simply because he heard that his wife had provided breast milk for their baby. The anger that had once peaked vanished in an instant. "Did you just come back from the hospital?" asked Madison. Seeing the happiness radiating from her handsome son's face, she knew that Nathan was in a good mood. "Yes, Mom," Nathan replied with a smile. He then sat on a different sofa in front of the beautiful woman, despite her age. "How is my grandson?" Madison inquired about her grandson. "Robert said that my child's condition has greatly improved. His weight has increased by 300 grams." "Really? I'm so happy to hear that. Tomorrow, I'll go to the hospital; I miss seeing him." The news Nathan brought truly made Madison happy. For the past two days, she hadn't been to the hospital

Ellie froze as Tory’s sharp words cut through her like shards of glass.“I don’t need to either. I don’t like being touched by someone like you,” Simon’s other sister, Tina, added coldly. Both women looked at her with pure disgust.Ellie simply nodded in understanding and turned toward the kitchen to make a drink.She was used to the insults, the mockery. She had heard them countless times before.But that didn’t make them hurt any less.Especially now—when her emotions were already fragile, shattered by the unbearable loss of her son.Ellie rushed to the kitchen. She didn’t immediately start making the drinks—she cried first. Sometimes, she wondered how much longer she could endure this family. A family that never missed a chance to insult and belittle her. A family that claimed to value education but treated people like animals. Was this what highly educated people were supposed to be like? She quickly wiped her tears away when she heard Wendy calling her name. “Hurry u

"You shouldn't have brought me here," Matthew said weakly, his voice trembling. He was useless now, just a broken man watching his family fall apart.He had failed—not just as a father but as a husband too. He had failed to raise his children properly."If it weren't for this stupid woman, Simon wouldn't have done something like this with another girl," Wendy spat, jabbing a finger at Ellie as if she were the root of all their problems.Matthew's tired eyes lifted to his wife. "So now you're excusing our son's actions?" His voice was rough, filled with bitter disappointment."I'm not excusing him," Wendy snapped. "But Simon isn't wrong. It's this damn daughter-in-law who's the problem—she's the one ruining our family's name."Melissa stood quietly to the side, watching it all unfold.She felt lucky to have a mother-in-law like Wendy. No matter how wrong her children were, in Wendy's eyes, they were always right.Matthew clutched his chest, feeling a sharp pain tighten in his rib

"Divorce?" Wendy scoffed. "You say it so easily. If you want to leave Simon, then pay off the $2,700 debt from delivering your baby first."Ellie froze. Debt? What debt?Wendy casually pulled a document from her bag and held it out for Ellie to see."When you gave birth, Simon only had $300. The remaining $1,700 was a loan from me," she explained smoothly. "According to this agreement, you owe me that amount—with a 10% interest per month. Since you haven't paid for three months, there's a $500 late fee and $500 in accumulated interest. That brings the total to $2,700.""After the reception and their honeymoon, you'll be staying at my house."Wendy smiled at Ellie, completely unfazed by her pale, stricken face. There wasn't an ounce of pity in her eyes.In fact, she couldn't wait for Ellie to move into her house. With Ellie around, she could save the $300 a month she spent on two household assistants. And even better—she wouldn't have to go through the trouble of hiring a caretake

Ellie could no longer bear the pain and dizziness. The moment Simon's family left, she collapsed. She had no idea how long she remained unconscious, but when she finally woke, her body trembled from the cold. She hadn't moved an inch. Simon had left without even bothering to carry her to the bed.If only he had never spoken those words of love, the pain wouldn't cut this deep.A vacant stare settled on her face, a faint smile tugging at her lips as Melissa's words echoed in her mind. Ellie no longer cried—her tears had long dried. She had endured too much, fought too hard.Before their marriage, Simon's family strongly rejected Ellie. Still, they wed in a private ceremony and maintained a long-distance relationship. Despite the challenges, Ellie felt deeply grateful to be Simon's wife. He never complained about the distance and even encouraged her to stay with her sick mother.But at seven months pregnant, everything changed. Simon stopped touching her. Desperate for his attention,
