CEO’s Romantic Affair

The only thing that Cathryn knew for certain was that she wanted to give her child emotional stability, consistency, and the parents that she loved. She needed to discuss this with Grace. Only Grace would know what to say.

It was so complicated. Cathryn knew she could not make a decision rashly. She needed time. Keith gave her two choices. She had to think it over before deciding.

Keith agreed to give her time to think about it, and he told her to take all the time she needed.

Cathryn found herself comparing Jordan to Keith. They were so different. Jordan was a conniving and manipulating man, and Keith was like the sea, gentle and calm. Keith gave Cathryn several reasonable choices. She had a lot of thinking to do, but it didn’t matter what she chose because he left it all up to her.

“What would you like to eat at noon?” asked Keith. Keith saw that Cathryn was still eating the cake. He turned the opened box slightly to his side. Cathryn was still too shy to look at Keith, so she didn’t reach for the cake again when she saw that Keith had turned the cake towards himself. She had been immersed in thinking and found that she was already full.

“Order take out,” said Cathryn. Looking at the time, she blinked at Keith and continued, “You solve your lunch by yourself.” Cathryn’s meaning was very clear that Keith should go back to his own home to eat lunch if he was hungry. Keith certainly understood what she meant.

Smiling and nodding, he stood up and then looked down at Cathryn and said, “Well, you can call me anytime if you decide or just want to talk.”

When Keith stood up, his head almost touched the ceiling, and Cathryn had to look up at him. She also stood up, and she could feel her neck was getting really sore from looking up at him.

“How can I get in touch with you?” asked Cathryn.

In the morning, when Jeremy told him Cathryn’s address, he immediately drove to Cathryn’s house without any preparation. He usually carried his private business cards with him, but he left so abruptly that he forgot all about them. Keith had no choice but to tell Cathryn his private phone number.

He watched as Cathryn entered the number into her cell phone. He was about to say his name when he looked down at the phone to see that she had finished entering his name.

“Keith,” Cathryn whispered.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“No, my name is Keith, K-E-I-T-H.” Keith reminded her in a low voice. Looking up at him, Cathryn stared at him with her big eyes and asked, “Not Keith?”

“Not… Keith.” Keith replied and took her cell phone from her hand, typing his name into the cell phone with his slender and long fingers, his movement as graceful as playing the piano.

Cathryn was fascinated by his movement, and when Keith handed the cell phone back to her, she could not help feeling shy. Cathryn looked at the saved number and name on the cell phone, she felt a little flustered. Cathryn closed the door immediately and anxiously took out her cell phone to call Grace as soon as Keith left. She quickly told Grace that she was pregnant and all that she and Keith had talked about.

After hearing that, Grace told Cathryn that she would immediately come over to her house when she was done with work. She told Cathryn not to make any impulsive decisions by herself. Cathryn’s uneasiness finally settled down.

After hanging up the phone, Cathryn made a call to her agent, Morgan. She was looking for work. He told her that there wasn’t any work and asked her not to call him anymore. She was so disappointed when she hung up the phone. She wondered why he would ask her not to call him anymore, and before she even finished, she knew…. It was Jordan. He was the reason why!

Cathryn began to think about her future. After she gave birth to her child, if she still continued to be an unknown actress in the entertainment circle, how would she be able to afford to raise a child by herself? Then she thought about going back to her hometown to become a teacher. Her mother would be so proud. She thought about her child’s future and being an unmarried mother, Cathryn’s heart sank at the thought.

She knew she needed financial security for her child. Then she remembered the first choice that Keith gave her this morning. Cathryn was more inclined to that choice. After Grace arrived at Cathryn’s home, she wanted to ensure that the pregnancy test was accurate. When this was confirmed, she asked Cathryn to call Keith and ask him to come over.

Not long after, Keith arrived, and this time he brought a box of strawberry cake. Cathryn was not as nervous as before. She took the cake from his hand, and she said “thank you” to him. When Keith entered Cathryn’s home, Grace felt that he looked a bit familiar, but the feeling was very vague, so she thought that maybe she was wrong. Keith sat down on the sofa, and Grace politely poured him a glass of water.

When he was about to drink the water, Grace said aggressively, “Keith, you clearly knew that Cathryn was drunk but still had sex with her…. Your behavior was rape.” Grace decided she was going to put some pressure on Keith at first. Her views on men were that they were all bastards, deceitful, womanizers, and man-whores.

“If Cathryn were not so beautiful and just an ordinary girl, would you still have had sex with her? Men are all visual creatures. Look at Jordan, he could not help making love to Athena. How many other women had he been with? How do I know you are not that type of man?” Grace was in a role, but she was going to find out what kind of man Keith really was.

Although Grace’s words were very aggressive, they did not affect Keith at all. He looked at Grace, and Keith smiled slightly.

He started to say, “Cathryn had a male companion at that time, but she held me tightly when her male companion was going to take her to the room. She vomited all over me, and then her male companion fled. He left her there, and she was in no condition to be by herself. I had just stepped out of my room, and I could see what was going on. The man that she was with was going to take advantage of her. That was no mistake. I was afraid that it would be unsafe for Cathryn, so I asked my friend to book a room for me.”
