Dangerous Desire The CEO’s Hidden Woman

On the other end of town, Scarlett finished eating a bunch of oranges and wiped her mouth. She bounded over to Eve’s bedroom in order to wake her up. Eve wasn’t in a good mood.

“What the hell are you doing? I fell asleep at, like, three in the morning! Is this an emergency or something? Why the fuck are you waking me up this early? Man, I’m gonna punch you!”

Since Scarlett knew Eve very well, she didn’t take what she said seriously. Touching her belly, she said, “Eve, I don’t know… I think I’ve eaten too many fruits. My stomach kinda hurts.”

“Does it hurt a lot? How bad is it?” Eve asked. She was still barely awake.

“Not much, it’s just this vague kinda pain. It’s sort of on and off. Do you know? Do you think I should go see a doctor?” Scarlett asked with a frown spreading on her face.

“Of course we have to.” Eve jumped out of bed, put on her dress, and pushed Scarlett out, saying, “Hurry up and get dressed. We are going to the hospital now!”

“Okay!”

It was scary to carry an eight-month baby, and Eve was very afraid that Scarlett would give birth prematurely, so she immediately took her to the hospital. The moment they walked out of the building, a low-profile Bentley followed close behind them.

When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor asked Scarlett to weigh herself.

“Can’t you just run some tests or whatever? Why do I have to weigh myself? It’s embarrassing…”

“Don’t feel embarrassed for putting on weight! You’re carrying a child, for god’s sake. Of course, you’re going to gain weight. It’s perfectly normal, Scarlett, and you’re holding up pretty well, too.” She comforted her and continued, “If you don’t weigh yourself right now, you’ll have to do it when you have the baby. Natural labor or cesarean? If you choose cesarean, you have to do that so that the anesthetist decides the dose.”

“Well, I choose natural labor,” Scarlett said.

“Wow, you are so brave!” Eve said next to her and gave her a thumb-up.

“You young woman always care about your figures too much. Well, it’s up to you, but you need to answer all of my questions honestly.”

“Okay, I will.” She nodded.

“Have you had sex recently?” She asked very seriously.

“Well…” Scarlett didn’t know how to answer. Eve fell back on the sofa and chuckled at the question.

“Yes or no?” the doctor asked again.

“No,” Scarlett said.

“Okay, that’s good. In some cases, it can be dangerous to have sex when you’re this pregnant. Where is your husband anyway? Why isn’t he here with you? These are important matters.”

“Well, my husband is out on a business trip, and this is my elder sister. And I live with her right now, so you can just tell her.”

After hearing everything the doctor had to say, Scarlett walked out of the hospital along with Eve.

“Did you hear what the doctor said? About having a balanced diet? So, how balanced has your diet been these days, eh?” Eve said.

“Super!” Scarlett said with a mischievous smile on her face.

As they headed toward the parking car unhurriedly, a black car suddenly swerved past them. It frightened them both to death.

Before Eve went up to punch the driver, the driver rushed to get out and began to walk towards them. It turned out that the driver was Chuck.

“Chuck, you almost killed us. Is this your proper way of saying hello?” Scarlett complained as she fanned herself.

“Scarlett, come with me!” He said.

“You want her to elope with you?” Eve asked.

Chuck gave a blank stare at Eve and turned back to Scarlett, “Now Vivian and my family will not let you off the hook. So come with me, and I can keep you safe.”

“Who asked you to come here and do this?” Scarlett squinted.

“I’m just trying to make it all up to you! If not my mother, you and Francis won’t end up like this. It’s not safe outside, so please trust me and come with me, okay?” He begged.

Eve looked at him with suspicion and said, “What game are you two playing? Your mother tried to hurt her, and now you want to save her. Won’t you betray Scarlett to your mother again?”

Chuck had no excuses to offer her, so he just looked at Scarlett with sincere eyes, “Could you give me a chance to make it up to you for what my mother has done? I know you might hate her, but you can’t hate me too.”

“I don’t hate you, and it’s not your fault.”

“Well, then come with me, and I’ll protect you!” He was relieved.

“Do you think I should trust him?” Scarlett turned to Eve and asked.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“It depends on you! But there is one condition…”

Eve looked at Chuck harshly and said, “If she’s going with you, I’m going with her.”

Chuck agreed readily.

“Hey, wait, wait! Isn’t it too hasty to make such a decision? After all, I’m carrying a baby now!” Scarlett disagreed in the back seat.

“Someone sent you here to protect her, am I right?” Eve asked Chuck on the passenger seat.

“It’s none of your business!”

“I really doubt that you have the ability to protect this silly girl,” Eve said, holding her arms across her chest.

“Hey, I’m right here!” Scarlett poked her head between them.

“Sit back!” They berated her at the same time.

Scarlett couldn’t believe the circumstances she now found herself in.

***

Chuck drove very fast, and Scarlett and Eve just fell asleep on the way to the destination. When they woke up, it was very dark outside. They couldn’t see anything very clearly, except for small houses and cottages.

“Where are we now?” Scarlett asked as she rubbed her eyes in a daze.

“My family sometimes vacations here.” He answered as he took her up the stairs slowly.

Eve followed behind them and was awakened by the scent of morning dew. There were many houses, high and low, and quiet hills surrounding them.

“You are not selling me out, are you?” Scarlett looked at him in doubt.

“Watch out! Under your feet!” Chuck reminded her kindly.
