Love After One-night Stand with CEO

"Rosa, when mom and dad are old and grey, you must take care of Cecil!"

"I'm fine. Dad will earn more money so you can live better in the future!"

"Rosa, I'm sorry. Mom couldn't buy you a new textbook. I already don't have enough to buy medicine for Cecil!"

"Rosa, no matter what happens in the future, you must take your brother with you!"

The air was painted with the scent of blood...

Surrounded by sorrowful sobs...

"Rosa, keep it together. Your parents are gone now. Their last words were to take care of Cecil. You must never let anything happen to you! Suddenly, the door was gently pushed open.

The man's slender figure emerged from the door and walked towards the bed in his slippers. Then, he sat down at the edge of the bed.

The person on the bed was sleeping soundly.

It seemed like she had not heard him enter the room.

"Mom, Dad..." Her soft cries pulled his gaze back onto her. She was frowning in her sleep as her fingers clenched tighter.

"Don't go... Mom, Dad... don't go..."

The voice of the person on the bed became more and more urgent.

Beads of sweat seemed to be forming on her forehead.

The man pursed his thin lips into a straight line and called out in a low voice, "Rosa, Rosa..."

The worried cry made Rosa open her eyes in a daze.

But as soon as she woke up, she was lying on the bed in a trance.

However, Henry could clearly see the painful trauma in her eyes.

"What's wrong?" He brushed her drenched hair aside and asked, "Did you have a nightmare?"

Rosa looked at him and was stunned for a while before she came to her senses.

"Uh... you're back? What time is it?"

She rubbed her head and wanted to sit up.

Henry helped her up and leaned against the bed.

"It's six o'clock. Aunt Abbie said that you've been sleeping since you came back in the afternoon. What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Henry's brows were filled with worry. "I might have caught a cold, and I'm feeling a little tired." She forced a smile.

He frowned and said, "You caught a cold? Have you seen a doctor?"

Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and then she lightly said, "It's fine, I'm like this every time I catch a cold. I'll be fine after having some medicine."

The man's eyes were unhappy. "How can you take medicine randomly? Get up, I'll bring you to the hospital for a checkup!"

"No!" Rosa quickly refused.

Henry frowned slightly and stared at her without saying a word.

Rosa avoided his gaze and smiled awkwardly as she said, "I'm really fine. You also know that my exams are coming up. I'm under great pressure, so..." "Where's that pressure coming from?"

Rosa raised her eyebrows and said, "Because I need to get the scholarship!"

This was the purpose of her coming to this school.

Otherwise, why would she come to this noble school?

Henry chuckled and brushed the strands of hair covering her face. Then, he said, "Take good care of yourself. I'll give you the scholarship, okay?" Rosa pouted and said, "There you go again!"

This morning, they had just argued about how she should get home from school.

Now, were they going to argue again because of a scholarship?

Just like what his mother said...

She didn't want to be his parasite.

Henry looked into her eyes, and his smile grew deeper.

"You're throwing a tantrum again. I agreed that you can be independent, but the premise was that you must be healthy!"

Rosa quickly held his hand and said, "I'm not sick, I just did a lot of homework these days. After a few days I'll be fine!"

"Alright., if you take good care of your body for the next two days, I will keep my promise. Otherwise, you'll have to ask for leave and rest at home!" He said in a serious manner. Rosa nodded and said, "Okay, got it!"

"Get up and eat. Aunt Abbie even said that you didn't eat your noodles at noon."

Although Rosa wanted to say that she was not hungry at all and that she just wanted to sleep...

She was still afraid that he would take her to the hospital.

Therefore, she forced herself up.

She could never go to the hospital with him.

When the two of them went downstairs, Aunt Abbie already finished serving the dishes.

She said she didn't like fish this afternoon, so the fish was finished by then.

In the evening, braised chicken, pork ribs, and other home-cooked dishes were served.

"Sister, are you okay?" Cecil was very worried about her.

But there was no elevator in this villa, so he couldn't go upstairs.

"I'm okay. I've done too much homework in the past two days. I haven't slept well."

"Then, madam, you have to drink more soup. It's good for your brain and health!" Aunt Abbie immediately filled a bowl for her.

At the same time, she filled a bowl for both Henry and Cecil.

Rosa stared at the soup and felt her stomach flip.

Yet, she gritted her teeth, picked up the bowl, and ate her food.

She couldn't show her disgust.

Otherwise, she would expose herself.

"Why do you keep eating rice? There are so many dishes!" Henry saw her only eating the rice, so he grabbed some meat for her.

As soon as Rosa saw the meat, she frowned.

She gave all the meat to Cecil.

"I've gained weight recently, so I shouldn't eat too much meat at night."

"How are you fat?" Henry frowned. She was obviously very slim, yet she still claimed to be fat!

"Madam, you're not fat at all. You're thinner than Miss Garcia!"

Rosa lowered her head and continued eating, feeling a little embarrassed. She then said, "I'm a girl too. I'd worry about my body image. I still think I should keep my figure." Henry looked at her with a deep cold expression.

Rosa felt a pair of eyes staring at her.

Without even raising her head, she knew who the person was.

"My wife does not need to lose weight!" Henry handed her a piece of chicken thigh and demanded, "Eat it!"

Then he gave another chicken thigh to Cecil.

"Thank you."

Cecil was silent during the meal.

Rosa looked at the greasy chicken thigh in her bowl, and her stomach was about to flip.

"I'll go to the toilet first. I'll be right back!" Rosa said and quickly ran into the toilet.

NOW PLAY YOUR

FAVOURITE GAMES ON

After a while...

She wiped her mouth and washed her face before coming out.

Cecil had finished eating.

"Sister, I'm going back to my room."

"Huh? So fast?"

"I'm full. I read a book today. It's very interesting. I'm about to finish it." Cecil smiled and pushed his wheelchair back to his room. Rosa frowned and reminded him, "Don't read for too long. It's bad for your eyes!"

"Got it!"

Rosa returned to the table after a long while.

She realised that all the food on the table had been put away.

"Uh..."

"I told Aunt Abbie that you're unwell from catching a cold. Aunt Abbie said that she'd cook some porridge for you."

Rosa bit her lip and looked at Aunt Abbie, who was still busy in the kitchen.

She felt very guilty.

He took her hand and pulled her into his arms.

"You're not fat. I mean it!" He said sincerely in a gentle voice. "You don't need to lose weight. I don't mind. I just think that you're too thin. I'm afraid that you'll be swept away if there was a typhoon!" Hearing this, Rosa couldn't help but chuckle.

"How is that even possible?"

He smiled dotingly and pinched her cheek. "Eat more. Eat until you're all plumped up. In the future, we'll have a cute and chubby baby!"

Rosa's body stiffened in an instant.

Henry naturally noticed her reaction.

He thought that she was afraid of having a baby.

"Don't be afraid. Although I really want to have a baby now, I respect your decisions. We'll have a baby after you graduate from college, okay?"

He knew that she valued her studies very much.

Even if schools nowadays allowed their students to have children...

He knew that she would definitely be against it.

It didn't matter. He would guide her slowly and tell her the benefits of having children.

"Have...children..."

She was stammering a little.

"Yeah, you're my wife. Who else would you have a child with?" He chuckled like a little boy and hugged her tighter.

"Honey, I can't wait to have a child with you!"

Rosa frowned and asked in confusion, "Why?"

She could feel his warm breath on her neck as he embraced her. "I'm already 32 years old. If I don't have a child now, I'm getting old!"

Rosa was silent as her heart clenched.

"However, I respect your decisions. Rosa, don't let me wait too long. We'll have a baby as soon as you graduate, okay?"

The man looked at her deeply as his eyes were sparkling with hope.

For a moment, Rosa felt as if her heart was stabbed by a needle.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask Cecil. I think he has an appointment these two days. I'll go ask him!"

Rosa took the opportunity to get up quickly.

The next second, she was about to rush into Cecil's room.

The man behind her frowned deeply.

There was a trace of emotion in his dark eyes. In a low and hoarse voice, he said, "Rosa, you don't want to have children with me?"

Rosa stopped in her tracks.

She heard him!

She bit her lips as tears welled up in her eyes.

Time seemed to have stopped in place.

The room was left with clanking sounds coming from the kitchen.

After a while, Rosa took a deep breath.

She went straight into Cecil's room.

At this moment, the man's eyes dimmed...

Rosa fled to Cecil's room in embarrassment.

Hearing the sound, Cecil pushed his wheelchair from the study to the bedroom.

Rosa quickly took a deep breath to calm down.

"Sister... are you okay?"

Her eyes were a little red. It was obvious that she was holding something back.

"I'm fine."

"Did brother-in-law... scold you?"

Rosa was stunned. She looked at Cecil and asked in astonishment, "You... you acknowledge him as your brother-in-law?"

"I can tell that he truly loves you!" Cecil's voice was like an Autumn breeze, gentle yet firm.

Rosa lowered her eyes, overwhelmed by her emotions.

"Sister... At first, I was very against your relationship with him. I thought he wasn't as good as Mr. Wright..."

Rosa sat on the edge of the bed and did not speak.

"But later, I realised that he showed his love for you more than Mr. Wright ever did. Right?"

Not every man could accomplish what the Lewis enterprise had acheived.

"I know..." Her voice was very soft, but Cecil could still hear it.

"Sister..."

"Cecil, I will take care of you wholeheartedly!" Suddenly, she looked up at him, determined.

Cecil was stunned for a moment before chuckling and said, "Sister, I'm fine, aren't I?"

She stared at his calm face in a daze.

She felt that something was in her throat, which made her unable to speak.

Both of them knew what was going on.

His complicated heart disease.

It was uncertain whether he could live for another day.

Every day was a test.

"Sister, why are you crying?" Cecil grabbed a tissue and wiped her tears. "I'm fine now. Really. I'm much better than before. Don't worry about me!"

Rosa's words were trapped in her throat, and she could only nod hard.

"That's right. He's fine."

"You must be fine every day!" She thought.000000
