The Ceo’s proposal

I didn’t know what to tell my mother, she was upset and affected in a bad way because surely she is thinking that this marriage is for blackmail to tie him up, I told her that it was not what she was thinking and that what happened between us was… unexpected.

But my mother questions me just by looking at me because this is not the right thing to do, but neither is it right that a child is born out of wedlock, I don’t want him to be like me that’s why I accepted this proposal that would benefit us all.

-Please… trust me. I know very well what I do.

-A child… Bianca, really… -she passes her hand over her forehead -A baby daughter, it’s a big responsibility… what bothers me the most is that it seems that everybody knew about it, except me, the mother of the bride.

-No mom, that’s not true, some people still don’t know the news.

-I make signs to her to leave but she ignores me. “Come on, hurry up and go with my son so they can announce the marriage and the pregnancy.

I run my hands over my face for the gaffe this lady just made, I glare at her and she still doesn’t understand what was going on and didn’t care as she dragged me to where her son was leaving my conversation with my mother half way through.

When Eros started to talk, I could feel my mother’s gaze on me all the time, I am in trouble because I am sure she will start to search in depth what is really going on, Eros was in charge of giving the necessary information to the guests and when the night progressed he realized that something was going on, but as it is something personal, he ignored it and I do not reproach him anything since in reality we are not a real couple, just a farce.

I didn’t see my mother again in the course of the party, only my friend a couple of times, I felt bad to think that she was gone since I didn’t want that, but I didn’t have the strength to deceive her and I was about to tell her the truth when Eros’ mother interrupted us.

Only for a few moments we were together, then the guests approached him to talk and as it was about work, I decided to get away from everyone to be alone for a while and think about what I would say to my mother since I would not leave this matter halfway.

-So then it was true about the pregnancy.

As I turned around, I saw Eros’ ex, elegant in her body carved dress, but she had something in her gaze that told me she wasn’t here to congratulate me.

-Did you doubt it?

-I’m not going to lie to you, actually I did doubt it. The marriage, the… pregnancy. Since it’s not like Eros to have a family.

-Why do you say that?

-Because it’s what I wanted with him, but he was very clear in telling me that it wasn’t what he wanted, so…

-You left him because of that. -Well, I guess the circumstances weren’t right for you, or maybe you weren’t the ideal woman he wanted as the mother of his children.

She doesn’t seem to like my words, but talking to my supposed partner’s ex is… unpleasant, it really is. But she doesn’t keep quiet and tells me that she tried several times, she wanted his child and when she mentioned the hot nights they had together… they are the ones she would never forget.

The truth is that what she says shouldn’t affect me, it shouldn’t and yet I’m boiling with jealousy because actually this baby was conceived in a different way, we didn’t have unforgettable sex, and luckily for me I got pregnant on the first try, I don’t understand how she couldn’t if she was with… intimately many times.

-Well… now you have a new partner and you are expecting his child too, so congratulations.

-Thank you.

She didn’t seem very happy when she said it, not like me, because actually I am happy that I am going to be a mother and that his father is someone like Eros, I know he is going to be a good father, he is making an effort, besides, I have to say that his company is nice.

When I had nothing more to say, I got worried when I saw behind his back, my mother was still at the party and was coming towards me, I left eros’ ex at the entrance of the property and went to where she was, but before I could get to her, Eros intercepted her first and took her away, I tried to reach them but some of the guests stopped me to congratulate me and talk about my relationship with eros. How we met and how I feel about him.

-So you are the lucky one who captivated my nephew.

Confused I looked at the man in his 40’s, he was handsome for his age, “she said nephew, that means he is Eros’ uncle”. I gave him my best smile and greeted him I thought he would be nice but as we talked I realized I was inquiring more about my intimate relationship with his nephew than the baby’s welfare.

-They say my nephew is a stud in bed.

Well sir… with all due respect, I don’t like to talk about something so personal with someone I just met, what happens between him and me is a two-way thing, not a three-way thing.

-Everything in order?

When I felt eros’ hand on my hip my body shuddered, he looks at his uncle and this one leaves with a crooked smile that was scary.

-What did you talk to him?

-I didn’t tell him anything, don’t worry, what about my mother? I saw you were with her.

-I talked to her, everything is fine. Don’t worry, don’t worry.

Something inside me changed when he kissed my forehead, he spoke to me with such tenderness and concern as if he really cared about me.
