CEO’s Romantic Affair

Keith slightly loosened one of his hands, which had been clenching around the steering wheel. With his eyes slightly moving, he had a lot going on in his mind. With mixed emotions, he looked up at Cathryn and observed her carefully. He watched her while she wiped her tears, his expression was unreadable.

What Cathryn had just said was intended for Keith. In the underground parking lot, she had held Jordan in her trance, and Keith had seen it all. She admitted that at that moment that she had felt cheated because she had recalled Jordan’s tenderness.

But as soon as she had come to her senses, she immediately left Jordan’s arms and told Jordan that Keith was her boyfriend. Keith had always been playing the role of compromise in their relationship. Whatever she wanted. Whatever she hoped. Whatever she liked, Keith would satisfy her. Even if he didn’t identify with these demands, he would also indulge her.

But Cathryn also knew that Keith wasn’t a god, and he also had a hot heart. She had accidentally shown her love for Jordan, but she believed she could get rid of it altogether. However, Keith wouldn’t believe it.

As long as Keith didn’t believe it, he would be worried that Cathryn and Jordan would eventually get back together and abort their child. Because of this, she said these words, hoping that he would rest assured. She would never be fooled by Jordan again, and at the same time, she also hoped Keith could be courageous enough to let her work with Jordan.

After Cathryn and Keith returned to Flower Island, she ate several of the dishes prepared by Eva and then went to bed. The next day, Keith’s personal doctor came to Flower Island and gave her a very complete examination. He confirmed that her morning sickness was just a typical reaction. The doctor gave her some methods and prescriptions to relieve nausea, and then he left.

Keith didn’t go to work until he made sure that Cathryn was feeling okay. She was filled with anticipation and kept waiting for the result of the audition in the cycle of eating and vomiting.

Over the next week, her morning sickness gradually stabilized.

Except for some retching when she got up in the morning, she was back to normal.

Her diet was still kept as light as possible. The results of the audition were usually answered within a week. A week passed by, and the following morning, right after she finished her breakfast, her cell phone suddenly rang.

The phone call was an unfamiliar number which made her heart almost hop out of her chest. As soon as she answered, there was a man’s voice on the other end. He introduced himself to her and then said, “Congratulations, Miss Riley. You have passed the audition.”

After hanging up the phone, she lay there stunned for half a second. Then she immediately got out of bed and started to scream. A warm current suddenly rushed to her mouth, and she hurriedly ran into the bathroom and began to vomit.

When Cathryn could no longer vomit, she drank apple juice mixed with honey water to relieve nausea. She was so excited and decided to call her mother, and shortly after, her mother answered. As soon as she heard her voice, she immediately said excitedly, ” Hello, mom. I’m going to act in a film!”

The school had just started, and the teachers in the office didn’t have much work to do. They would gather together in the lounge and talk about the new clothes they had bought and their children’s gifts. Mrs. Riley was a quiet person and didn’t like to join in their conversations. Whenever the other teachers talked to her, she always gave them a brief answer.

As soon as Cathryn finished telling her mother, Mrs. Riley stood up and went to the drinking fountain to fill her cup with water. Then, she replied without any emotion on her face, “Well.”

Getting her mother’s response, though only one word, Cathryn still could not conceal her joy and said, “This time I won’t play a little, unknown role, but a supporting actress role. There are four scenes! Then my name will be seen at the end of the film!”

“Well,” Mrs. Riley said again and calmly listened to her as she put her cup on the desk. Finally, she asked, “Have you started to study the reference books for the Teachers Certification?”

After her mother mentioned this, Cathryn was more confident this time than whenever she had been asked by Mrs. Riley before, “Yes, mom, I have been reading them every day. Albert’s notes were made very beautifully. The knowledge points were summed up and sorted out very clearly.”

Hearing the affirmative answer from her daughter, Mrs. Riley nodded with satisfaction. “Sounds good, okay then goodbye,” and then she hung up the phone.

Without thinking, Mrs. Riley had walked to the center of the teachers’ lounge, and they were all sitting around talking.

After Mrs. Riley hung up the phone, a teacher next to her asked with a smile, “Was it, Cathryn?”

The teachers guessed that the conversation between Mrs. Riley and Cathryn was about Cathryn studying for the Teacher Certification.

“Yes,” Mrs. Riley smiled faintly and said to the people around her, “She also called to tell me that she passed the audition and she will be acting in a film soon.”

All the teachers around Mrs. Riley asked in surprise, “Really?”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Then they immediately began to congratulate Mrs. Riley. Slowly drinking a cup of water, Mrs. Riley still maintained her composure and said with a faint smile, “It’s nothing to be congratulated about. She’d better get her Teacher Certification and have a regular job.”

All the teachers in the office said that Mrs. Riley didn’t know how fortunate she was, and they scattered gradually as soon as the bell rang. Then Mrs. Riley returned to her own desk with her cup and looked at the photo of Cathryn when she was a child. She smiled happily. ‘How great her daughter was!’ Mrs. Riley praised her in her mind.
