Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 1851 False Alarm

It’d be even better if we can get a boy this time! I can then spoil my precious daughter all I want while my son inherits the company!

The two of them had just gotten into the car after leaving the movie theater when Vinson’s phone started ringing. He quickly answered the phone when he saw that it was Susanne calling.

“Vinson, Jasmine has gone missing!” Susanne shouted anxiously. The look on Vinson’s face changed instantly. “What? Jasmine has gone missing? When did this happen?”

Arielle, too, began to panic when she heard that. How did Jasmine go missing?

“Got it. We’re heading back right now!” Vinson hung up the phone after saying that and drove Arielle home as quickly as possible. Upon arriving home, Arielle went to check the surveillance camera footage in the study while Vinson asked Susanne what Jasmine was doing before she went missing.

Arielle had Vinson install surveillance cameras around the mansion long before Jasmine was born. Hence, through them, she would be able to see where Jasmine was hiding or which direction she had gone in.

Susanne was still explaining the situation to Vinson when Arielle came down the stairs with an exasperated expression on her face.

“Jasmine is fine, Mom. Her uncle came by and took her with him.”

Susanne, who was close to tears from anxiety, calmed down a little when she heard that. “Which uncle? Pat or Aaron? Honestly, why would this child just leave without telling us? I was worried sick!”

“It was Aaron.”

“Why did he take her away without informing us?” Susanne was a little mad at him even though he was Arielle’s brother.

“Jasmine gave him a video call and asked him to take her away.” Arielle had seen a text message from Aaron when she was coming down the stairs just now. Apparently, Aaron had texted her much earlier in the day that he would come pick Jasmine up, but she hadn’t noticed it.

Susanne shot the two a glare when she heard what Jasmine did. “Jasmine got mad because you two wouldn’t stop acting all lovey-dovey! Go bring her back right now!”

As Susanne had been looking after Jasmine since the latter was born, she couldn’t stand being separated from the girl.

“It’s really late, Mom. Sannie and I will head over to Turlen tomorrow. You’ll have to take charge of things at work while we’re gone, okay?” Vinson said. Susanne was about to say no to having to deal with company matters but held her tongue as she knew they were going to bring Jasmine home.

The next day, the two of them took the earliest available flight to Turlen.

Jasmine, who had just woken up, walked up to Sebastian and Alicia with her hair all messy. “Sebastian, do you think my parents know I’m gone? Will they come looking for me?”

“I’m sure they will. You’re their precious little princess, after all.” Sebastian turned toward Alicia as he continued, “Mother, could you bathe her and get her a change of clothes? She must be hungry.”

“Okay. You wait right here,” Alicia replied as she led Jasmine over to the bathroom. When they came out again, Jasmine was wearing a dress that Alicia had prepared for her.

The two kids then walked hand in hand to the dining table and had lunch.

After they were done eating, the adults left the house with Jasmine and Sebastian.

“Uncle Vinson, Aunt Arielle, Grandmother, you guys had better hurry…”

Right then, Arielle and Vinson arrived. “You’re incredible, Jasmine!” Arielle squatted down and picked up Jasmine. When Arielle stood up once again, Vinson immediately took the girl away from her mother’s embrace.

He just didn’t want Arielle to get too exhausted. “Daddy, did you panic when I left with Uncle Aaron?” Jasmine wrapped her arms around Vinson’s neck and looked at him innocently.

Vinson hummed in response, but he then noticed how dissatisfied Jasmine was with his answer. Hence, he added, “I did! That’s why I came here right away.”

Upon hearing that, Jasmine was thrilled, and she planted a kiss on Vinson’s cheek. After that, she uttered proudly, “That’s your reward.”

Vinson couldn’t help but chuckle when he heard that. What a silly girl!

Celeste, the Queen Mother, was standing awkwardly nearby. She had missed Jasmine, someone she considered her granddaughter, dearly.

“Arielle, I—” Celeste wanted to tell Arielle that she wasn’t the one who asked Jasmine to address her as “Grandmother.” However, Arielle interrupted her by saying, “She’s supposed to address you so.”

After all, Celeste was her father’s wife. Moreover, she was Aaron’s mother. In other words, Celeste was Jasmine’s grandmother. Also, Arielle knew how sad and depressing Celeste’s life was. Even though she was Dad’s wife, he had never shown her warmth and affection.

Celeste was touched when she heard what Arielle said.

“Arielle, I would like to apologize for the things I did to you in the past,” Celeste apologized sincerely while looking at her.

Arielle recalled the time when she was there and how they fought against each other. With a smile, she shook her head and replied, “That’s all in the past now, and I’ve forgotten all about it. You should also let go of the past.”

Since Arielle’s relationship with Aaron had been good over the years, it was safe to say that Celeste was surely feeling bad about the things she did to Arielle in the past. The fact that Celeste apologized to Arielle meant that Celeste knew what she did was wrong.

Hence, Arielle had no reason to hold a grudge against Celeste. After all, everyone had their own way of looking at things.

After staying in Turlen for nearly a month, Arielle’s manager called her and told her that she had accepted a role in a fictional film on her behalf. Hence, her manager wanted her to return so that they could go through the script and have a discussion.

Indeed, Arielle officially entered the entertainment industry one year after giving birth to Jasmine. Over the past two years, she acted in countless movies and television shows. This time around, Arielle had only had a two-month break when her manager found a fictional film for her to take part in. Upon deciding on a date for her return, Arielle and Vinson took Jasmine to the royal cemetery to visit Dylan’s grave.

“I came to see you again, Dad. I’m leaving tomorrow. When I’m done with this fictional film, I’ll bring Vinson and Jasmine here to visit you again,” Arielle uttered.

“Granddad, although you’ve never met me before, Mommy told me you love me as much as my late grandmother did. Granddad, I love both of you very much. I’ll come to visit you again,” Jasmine said.

While holding Jasmine in one arm and the dispirited Arielle in the other, Vinson gazed at the photo on the tombstone and uttered in a deep voice, “Dad, I’ll make sure Sannie will forever be happy. You and Mom shouldn’t worry about them. I’ll take good care of our little family.”

After leaving the cemetery, Arielle and the rest went to say goodbye to Aaron and the others before taking a flight back home. When they arrived, Rayson was there to fetch them.

“Ugh!” Arielle couldn’t help but gag the moment she got into the car.

Vinson heard it, and he immediately looked at her worriedly. That was when he saw Arielle saying with a pale face, “Congratulations! You’re going to be a father again…”

Vinson was stunned for a moment, but in the next second, his handsome face filled with delight. “Sannie!”

While hugging Arielle tightly, he was filled with indescribable joy and excitement.

Meanwhile, back when Aaron finally found Alicia. Initially, Aaron thought he could bring Alicia back the moment he found her. Little did he expect Clement to start chasing him out of the house with a stick the moment the latter returned home.

“Don’t hit him, Grandpa. I fell for him first, and I was the one who wanted a relationship with him…” Alicia didn’t expect Clement to have such a big reaction. When she saw Clement was about to hit Aaron, she ignored the fact that she was pregnant and immediately rushed toward Aaron to shield him from the stick.

“Alicia!” Clement was enraged when he saw Alicia protecting Aaron. While pretending to not care about the baby in her stomach, he swung the stick toward her.

Aaron was startled when he saw that. He then swiftly stepped forward and pulled Alicia into his embrace. In the end, he was struck on the back. Although the pain caused him to let out a muffled groan, he didn’t retaliate.

Just a split second earlier, Clement didn’t mean to hurt Alicia because, after all, how could he not care about her baby? He swung the stick in Alicia’s direction to scare her, not expecting Aaron to jump to her protection.

“Aaron…” Alicia’s eyes reddened immediately.

“I’m at fault, Grandpa. I didn’t take good care of Alicia, and I’ve disappointed her.” Aaron turned around and knelt before Clement. “Give me a chance to redeem myself, Grandpa. If you let Alicia marry me, I promise I’ll treat her right for the rest of my life. I’ll make sure she’ll live a happy life.”

Seeing that Aaron was saying all the right words while he was on his knees, Clement snorted. Does he really think I’m going to believe what he says? I’m not as foolish as Alicia! She believed everything he said!

“Leave. I’ll take care of Alicia myself. We don’t need you.” Clement glared at Aaron and warned, “Leave at once before I get even angrier.”

No one could imagine how angry Clement was when he returned to see Aaron hugging Alicia. Who would’ve thought that the person who impregnated Alicia would turn out to be the person I rescued? Did I bring this upon myself? At that moment, he was so angry that he was trembling all over. How he wished he could just kill Aaron there and then.

Alicia noticed how furious Clement was, so she hurriedly walked up to him and grabbed his hand. “Grandpa, Aaron never said he didn’t want me. I left him because I thought I would never be good enough for him. After I left, he spent months tracking me down. Don’t be angry anymore, okay?”

In response, Clement pointed at Alicia and scolded, “What makes you think that? You’re pretty, well-behaved, and smart! Why would you think you don’t deserve him?”

“Grandpa, he’s the king, and I’m just a commoner. What makes you think I’m deserving of him?” Alicia had tears welling up in her eyes.

Those words silenced Clement instantaneously. Who would’ve known that the person I rescued back then would end up being a king? He then glanced at Aaron, who was still on his knees, and sighed inwardly. Alicia’s right. She’s not good enough for him.

“Get up and don’t ever come here again.” Despite not being a busybody, Clement knew Aaron was supposed to marry the country’s general’s daughter. Now that’s a good match.

“Since I’ve come all the way here, Grandpa, I don’t intend to leave here alone. I came here to bring Alicia back and marry her. I want her to be my wife and Turlen’s queen.” As Aaron was finishing his sentence, he threw a gentle glance at Alicia.

Upon hearing that, Alicia and Clement looked at Aaron in bewilderment. Did we hear him wrong? Doesn’t he have a fiancée? Indeed, they were wondering how Aaron could marry Alicia and make her the queen.

“Kid, stop fooling around, will you? Don’t try to trick me. I know you already have a fiancée.” With that, Clement dragged Alicia into the house because he was sick of listening to Aaron’s lies.

Alicia didn’t want to leave, but she didn’t want to hurt Clement by fighting him off. She ended up throwing a glance at Aaron before walking into the house with Clement.

Seeing that they were leaving, Aaron instantly stood up and ran in front of them. “Grandpa, that’s what my grandma wants, not me. I’ll bring Alicia back and cancel the marriage arrangement I have with my fiancée.” Aaron then said to Clement with a straight face, “I love Alicia, and I want to marry her. I want her to be my wife and queen.”

“Do you want to marry Alicia so badly?” Clement asked, and Aaron nodded in response. “Fine. I’ll agree with it. However, I have one condition,” Clement added.

Upon getting Clement’s approval, a smile finally appeared on Aaron’s face. “Name it, Grandpa. As long as I get to marry Alicia, I’ll accept whatever conditions you have.”

“You can be with Alicia. My condition is that you must go back and break off the engagement first. Once that’s done, you can come over to fetch Alicia,” Clement uttered.

Aaron didn’t dare to accept the condition. He was worried that once he left, Clement and Alicia would go into hiding. “Grandpa, can I—”

Before Aaron could finish his sentence, Clement cut him off by saying, “No!”

Clement knew what was on Aaron’s mind, so he said, “Neither I nor Alicia will leave this place. We’ll wait for you here. All you need to do is cancel the marriage arrangement and announce it to the public.”

Alicia looked at Aaron and nodded slightly. At that, Aaron had no choice but to agree to it.

“Okay. I’ll go back and call off the engagement now. You guys must wait for me.” Aaron decided to go home and pull out of the marriage arrangement he had with Nico. Once I’ve done that, I’ll come with more people to bring Alicia home. I haven’t seen Alicia in such a long time, and I can’t wait to be with her.

When Aaron was leaving, Clement allowed Alicia to send him off. Before they parted ways, Aaron pulled Alicia into his embrace, grabbed her chin, and kissed her passionately. “Wait for my return,” he said.

Aaron then went home to tell Celeste he wanted to break off the engagement he had with Nico. Although Celeste was bothered by what happened between Nancy and Matthew, Celeste liked Nico because she thought the latter was the perfect daughter-in-law.

“Why’s that?” Celeste looked at Aaron and said, “I think Nico is a nice girl. She treats others well, and she’s going to be a good queen.”

Aaron knew Celeste was fond of Nico, so he told Celeste about Alicia.

“Who is she? What’s her status in society?” Celeste was very mindful of a person’s family background. In her opinion, having similar status was more important than a couple’s feelings for each other. Although Dylan and she were from similar backgrounds, she was never happy after their marriage. Despite that, her thoughts on the matter remained the same.

“She’s just a commoner, and she lives with her grandpa.” Aaron glanced at Celeste and uttered in a serious tone, “Regardless of her status, I still like her. Whenever she’s with me, I feel warm and happy. I feel comfortable being around her.”

Celeste noticed Aaron’s body language when he was talking about Alicia. After giving it some thought, Celeste agreed to let him cancel the marriage arrangement.

“Aaron, you ought to call off the engagement yourself so that there won’t be bad blood between you and General Matthew. He has control over the military, so no matter what, you need to be careful,” Celeste said earnestly.

“Okay!” Aaron knew what Celeste said was for his own good. He then nodded and wanted to go and look for Matthew to talk about the matter. Before he left, he turned around and smiled at Celeste. “Mom, you’ll have a grandchild in five months’ time.”

With that, Aaron left cheerfully. The only obstacle to breaking off the marriage arrangement wasn’t Matthew or Nico. In fact, it was actually Celeste.

Hence, he was on cloud nine after getting his mother’s approval. Although her approval wouldn’t change the outcome, it meant the world to him.

“Did you hear that, Miranda? Aaron said I’m going to have a grandchild soon. That means I’m going to be a grandma!” Celeste was thrilled. She didn’t expect to have a grandchild so soon.

Miranda was just as happy for Celeste. “Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations!”

“He said the child will be born in five months’ time. Miranda, quick! Send someone to buy clothes and toys for the baby! We also need cribs and baby walkers!” Before Miranda could utter a word in response, Celeste quickly added, “Never mind. Forget about it. I should be the one buying these things.”

With that, she told Miranda to get the car ready.

Meanwhile, Aaron had gone straight to the Nighy residence. Melissa welcomed him with open arms and led him to Matthew’s study.

“You’re here, Your Majesty,” Matthew greeted.

“General Matthew, I came to tell you something.” Aaron didn’t want to beat around the bush, so he said directly, “I want to call off the engagement I have with Nico. In the future, we shall marry whoever we like.”

Truth be told, Matthew knew something was up when he saw Aaron. However, he didn’t expect Aaron to revoke the marriage engagement. His expression turned gloomy the moment he heard that. “Your Majesty, about the marriage…”

“General Matthew, the engagement has always been my grandma’s idea. Furthermore, Nico and I don’t have feelings for each other. Since that’s the case, breaking off the engagement is beneficial to both of us. You may ask Nico about it because she’ll surely agree to it.”

“Please allow me some time to think about it, Your Majesty.”

Aaron knew how sudden it was, so Matthew would definitely have a hard time accepting it. Hence, he nodded in response and left.

Before he left, Melissa cordially invited him to stay for a meal because she thought he was going to be her son-in-law. However, Aaron said he had matters to attend to and left.

Matthew then called Nico to ask if she liked Aaron and whether she was okay with breaking off the engagement.

Nico was elated when she heard that. “Dad, I’m okay with it. After all, we don’t have feelings for each other. If we were to force it, we wouldn’t have a happy marriage.”

After hanging up, Matthew gave Aaron a call to tell him he agreed to revoke the marriage engagement. Hearing that, Aaron immediately announced the news to the public. Meanwhile, Melissa, who was in the Nighy residence, almost passed out from anger the moment she heard the news.

Not understanding why the event she had been looking forward to was suddenly canceled, she immediately went looking for Matthew to find out if Aaron was the one who suggested it during his previous visit. As soon as Matthew nodded, Melissa gave him a tight slap on the face.

“Did he find out about your matter? Is that why he wants to revoke the engagement?” Melissa questioned with bloodshot eyes.

The slap from her left Matthew in a daze. “What do you mean he found out about my matter? What matter?”

Melissa scoffed, “What matter? What else? Of course, it’s the humiliating matter between you and the Queen Mother!”

With that, she added, “Let’s get divorced, Matthew.”

She did not want to live with him anymore.

At first, Melissa thought of putting up with it for Nico’s sake since the latter was getting married to Aaron. Now that the engagement was revoked, there was no point in her staying with Matthew. After saying those words, Melissa packed her things and returned to her parent’s home.

Matthew, on the other hand, never expected his matter with Nancy to be discovered. As he watched Melissa leave, he moved his lips to say something, but nothing came out of his mouth.

The moment the news was announced to the public, Aaron led a team to the island to pick Alicia and Clement up.

In the meantime, Clement, who was on the island, had heard about the news. He glanced at Alicia and said with a sigh, “The palace is not the same as your home. Make sure you treat Aaron’s mother with respect and help him like a perfect partner should when you’re there, okay?”

Alicia nodded. Of course, she knew all that. I’ll do my best to be a good wife and daughter-in-law.

“Pack your things. He’ll be here any minute now.”

Upon hearing that, Alicia nodded and went to her room to pack her things.

Aaron traveled so quickly that he arrived at the island in just two hours. The moment he saw Alicia, he jogged over and hugged her.

“, let’s get married once we return,” he said softly into her ear.

“Thank you, Aaron.” Alicia wrapped her arms around his neck as hot tears streamed down her cheeks and fell onto his skin. She never expected such a day to come. In fact, she thought she would never be a part of his world. All she could imagine was bringing up the child alone and living a peaceful and blissful life with Clement.

Letting go of her, Aaron wiped her tears. He then led her to Clement and said with a smile, “Grandpa, I’m here to bring both of you back.”

Clement gazed at the duo, his eyes filled with merriment. Relief washed over him as he realized Alicia had found a reliable partner. At least I won’t feel guilty if I meet her mother in heaven when I die.

“You can bring Alicia back. As for me…” Clement’s voice trailed off as he gazed at the tiny hut and everything else on the island. A smile crept up on his lips, and he said, “I can just stay here. I like the environment here. Living in the city is too boring and stifling. I feel more comfortable and at ease here.”

Alicia was dumbfounded by his words.

“Grandpa, are you really not coming back with me?” Alicia tore her arm from Aaron’s and approached Clement to grab his. With reddened eyes, she choked, “I don’t want to part with you.”

She could not help but worry about the idea of Clement living alone, especially when he was quite old.

“Please come with me. It’s okay if you don’t want to live in the palace or the city; I’ll find a house for you in the suburbs. As long as it’s a place where I can go to anytime when I want to see you,” she said.

Clement studied Alicia, whose eyes were brimming with tears. I’m her only relative left. I guess it’ll be hard for her to adapt now that she’s suddenly getting married into the royal family. After pondering for a while, he agreed and went back with her.

Upon returning, Aaron helped Clement to settle down and hired a housekeeper to take care of the latter. When that was done, Aaron took Alicia to register their marriage. After getting the long-awaited marriage certificate, they ended the registration with a passionate kiss.

Aaron then brought her back to the palace and crowned her queen while Celeste took Nancy’s place as the queen’s mother. Even so, Celeste still stayed in her own palace because the one Nancy stayed in had been sealed long ago.

Next, Aaron brought Alicia to meet Celeste. Along the way, Alicia could not help but feel worried that his mother would not like her. Noting her unease, Aaron informed her that Celeste liked her very much. Only then did Alicia relax a little.

When they arrived at Celeste’s residence, Miranda hurriedly welcomed them in.

The smile on Celeste’s face never faded the moment she saw Aaron helping Alicia in.

“How far along is the baby? Has the baby been bothering you?” Celeste asked with a bright smile, which caused Alicia to be relieved.

“Five months. The baby’s all right. It hasn’t been bothering me much.” There was a motherly glow on Alicia’s face when she talked about her child, and it made Celeste even more pleased with her.

Though Alicia and Aaron were of different backgrounds, Celeste did not mind it as long as the former loved Aaron. After all, Alicia was pregnant with her grandchild.

“Come. I’d like to show you something.” Celeste got out of the main seat, walked over to Alicia, and led the latter to another room.

While walking off, Alicia turned around to look at Aaron for help because she did not know how to interact with Celeste on her own. However, Aaron merely shrugged helplessly and gestured for Alicia to follow his mother.

Of course, all that happened in silence.

Soon, Miranda opened the door to another room. The moment Celeste brought Alicia in, the latter was stunned by what she saw.

One half of the room was filled with clothing for baby boys and girls in various colors. On the other side were several strollers, a baby cot, and a mountain of toys.

Alicia gawked at the things, too touched to utter a single word.

Seeing Alicia frozen by the door, Aaron made his way over, only to be shocked by the mountain of things in the room. He never expected Celeste to have prepared everything for the baby so soon.

“Thank you, Mother!” Aaron hugged Celeste, who was grinning widely. Right then, she removed the rosary bead necklace on her neck and helped Alicia to put it on.

Alicia wanted to refuse it but was stopped by Celeste.

“This was my wedding gift and a blessing from your grandmother. It’s yours now. I’m giving it to you as a blessing for both of you. I hope you and Aaron can live happily for the rest of your lives.”

Alicia turned to glance at Aaron, who smiled and indicated she accept it. Unable to turn down the thoughtful offer, Alicia could only look at Celeste and say, “Thank you, Mother!”

“When Aaron gets busy at work in the future, you can always come to me to have a chat if you’re bored. There’s so much we can talk about—the baby’s gender, the name, and even what you plan to do after childbirth.”

Alicia nodded obediently.

Not long after, they left Celeste’s residence, and Aaron took Alicia home to get some rest.

Alicia wanted to take a shower before sleeping, so Aaron decided to wait in there for her, worried she would accidentally fall in the washroom. Nonetheless, he was chased out by her. As soon as Alicia was done showering, he quickly helped her to wipe her hair and blow dry it. His gestures filled Alicia’s heart with warmth. If Aaron had not gone looking for her, she would have lost him for the rest of her life.

At that thought, she turned around and hugged Aaron.

Realizing she was being a little emotional, Aaron put down the hairdryer and ruffled her dry hair, asking gently, “What’s wrong?”

“I almost lost you, Aaron,” Alicia mumbled.

Aaron took a step back and pinched her cheeks. “Tsk. Did you only realize that now? You’re right. You would’ve lost me if I didn’t set my heart on searching for you.”

Alicia could only nod in response. Thank goodness he came looking for me.

With that, she got up, stood on her toes, and wrapped her arms around his neck. “Thank you, my dear husband, for putting in so much effort to look for me.”

Hearing her call him “husband” triggered a strange feeling in Aaron’s heart. He gazed at her and finally kissed her gently on the lips.

Ever since Alicia left, Aaron had never touched another woman. Now that he was aroused, he whispered into her ear, “Can I?”

Alicia nodded shyly.

At that, he picked her up and placed her on the bed.

“Be gentle, Darling…”

Aaron hummed a response and kissed her.

Truth was, Alicia was tired after all the exciting events that day. Hence, it did not take long for her to drift off to sleep. Aaron peered at her and kissed her gently on the lips before shutting his eyes.

Two months later, Vinson sent Aaron a text that read: I’m going to propose to Arielle. I hope you can come and witness this important event.

Without any hesitation, Aaron accepted the invitation and broke the news to Celeste and Alicia. Celeste said nothing, for she knew how close Aaron was with Arielle. However, Alicia could not help but feel uneasy because Aaron had called out Arielle’s name before.

Realizing Alicia was feeling jealous, Aaron smiled and pulled her into his embrace, saying softly, “Alicia, Arielle’s my sister. She’s my biological sister from another mother.”

It was only then that Alicia realized she had misunderstood Aaron’s relationship with Arielle. Even so, she wanted to tag along with him to witness Arielle’s important moment.

To Alicia’s surprise, Arielle took a liking to the former, despite it being their first encounter. Arielle even let Alicia stay in Chanaea to deliver her baby. In fact, she even promised to help the latter with the delivery.

Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 1859 Harvey Jupiter Extra

“You know what? Your mommy and I got to know each other through a beautiful surprise.” Harvey lifted his daughter, his mind replaying memories of the past.

He never expected the second encounter with the girl he had sex with that night would turn out that way.

That day, he followed Arielle’s instructions to pick up a girl who wanted to have an abortion. He did not want to go at first, for he did not want Arielle to reveal her identity because of a nobody. That was why he strongly disagreed with Arielle’s decision. However, she told Harvey that Vinson knew about the matter, which was why Harvey had no choice but to obey her orders.

When he arrived at the location, his phone suddenly rang, but it hung up before he could even answer it. As he scanned the surroundings, he immediately noticed a girl in the distance. With that, he marched over and tapped her on the shoulder. “What’s up?”

Harvey was amused to see the girl shrink back like a frightened animal. Am I that scary?

Chuckling softly, he asked, “You gave me a call just now, didn’t you? Let’s go. Arielle is still waiting for you.”

At first, he thought the girl would follow him obediently. Surprisingly, the girl denied, “No, I didn’t call you. You’ve mistaken me for someone else.”

Seeing the girl was about to run away, he dialed the unknown number earlier, which immediately caused the girl’s phone to ring.

He glared at her, feeling utterly displeased. Arielle’s identity is about to be exposed, and this girl’s still dawdling as if she doesn’t care.

“Why are you denying it?”

“I suddenly remembered I have something to do, so I don’t want to disturb her,” the girl blurted and attempted to flee. Unfortunately, Harvey caught her, but his eyes widened in shock when he saw her face clearly.

“You—”

Isn’t she the girl I had sex with that night after getting drunk? I’ve been sending people out to look for her, but she was never found. I can’t believe I actually met her here. Wait a minute. She’s here for an abortion.

Harvey pulled her into his arms and muttered into her ear, “The child in your belly is mine, isn’t it?” He was not asking a question but declaring a fact.

He had never imagined the girl he had searched high and low for was actually Arielle’s friend. It seemed as if Lady Luck was on his side. At that moment, he felt thankful that he still came even though he was upset about how Arielle was willing to risk being exposed to pick up her friend. Otherwise, he would not have found the girl.

The second the girl heard his words, her expression changed, and she denied immediately, “What child? I don’t know what you’re talking about.” She even wanted to free herself from his arms.

Seeing that, Harvey knew the girl was not ready. He softened his tone, saying, “I know it was my fault that night. Can we please talk about it?”

Truth be told, he never expected the girl to be pregnant with his child after that one night. Regardless, the idea of her carrying his child in her belly did not disgust him. Instead, he even looked forward to it.

Could I have developed feelings for her after staring at her picture in the pendant every day?

Since she did not reply, Harvey narrowed his eyes and said after some thought, “Why don’t we go and see Arielle first?”

In truth, he hoped that Arielle would convince the girl to keep the child. After all, it was his first child—a life he cherished and did not want to give up on.

Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 1860 Do You Want The Child

Even so, he would respect the girl’s wishes to abort the child, albeit sadly and reluctantly. The girl thought for a moment before nodding at him.

Harvey was relieved to see her nod and complimented himself for coming up with an idea to make her stay. With that in mind, he reached out to hold her hand, but she flung it away. Puzzled, he glanced at her only to find her cheeks flushed. “I can walk on my own,” she said.

It was at that moment he realized his actions made her feel shy. “All right. Be careful then.” With that said, he went to the front to lead the way. At the same time, he could not help but smile whenever he thought of how the girl was pregnant with his child. He did not know if he would feel the same if he had slept with a different girl that night, but he would be very excited if this girl would give birth to his child.

At that thought, he could not help but turn around to look at her. To his surprise, the girl immediately patted her face, which made him ask, “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing. I felt some weird sensation on my face.” Hearing that, Harvey quickly went over and tilted her face up to study it before she could even react. “There seems to be nothing wrong with your face. We can get Arielle to check it when we’re back.”

With Arielle around, there was no need to go to a hospital.

When Harvey did not hear any reply from the girl, he lowered his gaze and met her eyes, which were fixated on him. It made his heart skip a beat. He badly wanted to kiss her, but he feared it would frighten her.

Unwilling to tear his eyes away from her, they continued gazing at each other until a ringtone sounded, which snapped them back into reality. Harvey hurriedly released her hand, and she fumbled through her bag for her phone.

Her face fell as soon as she saw the caller’s name. Noticing that, Harvey narrowed his eyes, but she quickly hung up and placed the phone in her bag before he could guess who the caller was.

Though he was worried for her, he did not ask about it. Along the way, he stole glances at the passenger seat to find her leaning her head against the car window, looking as though something was bugging her. He parted his lips to say something but remained silent nonetheless because he did not know what to say.

Even though they had once slept together, and she was pregnant with his child, they were not on close terms. Thus, he felt it was inappropriate for him to ask about her private matters. In fact, asking her such questions might only scare her off.

Upon arriving at the apartment, he sent the girl to Arielle’s room and headed out.

When he returned with a glass of water, he suddenly heard Arielle asking the girl, “What’s your plan? Do you want to deliver this child?” Immediately, he stopped in his tracks because he wanted to find out what the girl’s answer was.

“I-I don’t know, either.”

Her answer was a relief to Harvey. The fact that she did not insist on aborting the child proved that she had thought of keeping it.

“Sonia, please think carefully. If you don’t want it, then you should abort it as soon as possible. It’s better for your body that way as you’ll recover faster.”

Harvey’s heart sank when he heard Arielle’s words. He was truly worried that Sonia would go with the abortion.

“I’ve thought of keeping the baby before, but that was just a fleeting thought,” Sonia mumbled. Pausing momentarily, she continued, “But I don’t have the courage to keep the baby. I don’t know if I can bear the consequences after giving birth to the child. Not only is it tough being a single mother, but I’m also not sure if I can provide the child with a comfortable life. Why should I take the risk if I can’t do so? I don’t want the child to suffer with me.”
