Sweet Pregnant Wife: CEO Phillip's Fierce Love

Phillip's gaze fell from Ann's shocked face to Nikki, who was pouting lips in her arms.

A complicated emotion flashed through his deep eyes.

He struggled. He was in pain. He dismissed himself...

Ann did not have time to catch more from his eyes. Phillip casually extinguished the cigarette in his hand.

"You are back."

His voice was not as low and gorgeous as it used to be. It was somewhat hoarse.

The voice-activated lights in the corridor lit up because of his voice.

Smoke in the aisle dispersed Ann's gaze moved from the butts lying at Phillip's feet to his face.

Under the light, Ann could clearly see the stubble on his chin. It was obvious that he had not cleaned it up for a long time.

It was obvious that he was exhausted. After not seeing him for half a month, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

Ann was a little distressed, but she still tried to restrain her emotions and make her expression look indifferent.

"Mr. Phillip, why do you suddenly come over? What's the matter?"

When Phillip heard her cold and distant voice, his thin lips curved into a faint arc. His expression could not be seen.

"I went to Clear Water Town."

Ann suddenly trembled. Her hands tightened uncontrollably. She felt that Nikki, who was in her arms, was a little uncomfortable and frowned. She forced herself to relax. "So, what does it have to do with you appearing here?"

Phillip looked at Ann with his deep eyes. A deep and sexy smile emerged from his throat. It echoed in the quiet corridor, but it was inexplicably sad and lonely.

Under Ann's nervous and guarded gaze, Phillip walked towards her. He stopped when he was just an arm's length away from her.

Her shadow was reflected in his clear and dark eyes. But he just looked at her calmly without any emotion.

After a long time, he slowly raised his hand. His large hand covered Ann's soft black hair. His eyes suddenly softened, as if water could drip out from them. Just as Ann was about to scold him, an apology sounded.

"Sorry."

Ann suddenly froze. She raised her head and looked at Phillip, a little confused.

But when she met Phillip's eyes that seemed to be hiding great grief, she inexplicably felt as if her heart was being gripped by something. She could not help but feel sad. According to the information that Todd had previously investigated, Phillip personally made a trip to Clear Water Town.

He confirmed that his mother indeed had a daughter with William.

The appraisal also clearly told him that Ann was his mother's biological daughter.

After he had engaged in business and experienced a lot, he believed that no problem could stump him.

But this time, he finally had a taste of helplessness.

This was the 'revenge' that Hilda mentioned in the past. William was put in prison. She forced Ann to have sex with him and give birth to his child...

Hilda succeeded to make him suffer.

The most innocent were only Ann and her father.

...

The next day.

Phillip, who had disappeared for nearly half a month, suddenly appeared. Not only did it let Aydan and Todd heave a sigh of relief, but it also made those people who wanted to do something suppress their thoughts within the Moore Group.

The first thing Phillip did when he came back was to boldly adjust the internal personnel structure of the Moore Group.

The time he had left was neither long nor short, but it was enough for those people with ulterior motives to spread some news about Phillip within the Moore Group.

Moreover, there were even rumors that Phillip left because something happened to the Moore family.

The eldest grandson of the Moore family, Adam, had managed his career well overseas. Brenton decided to recall Adam and let Adam replace Phillip.

After all, Phillip was just an illegitimate child. In terms of speaking, he was inferior to Aydan. At least, Aydan was a legitimate child.

And the people who spread these rumors were fired.

Along with them, there was also a group of so-called elders of the company who had been strutting around in the Moore Group during this period.

Phillip's ruthless way of handling things made the employees of the Moore Group tremble in fear.

In private, they were discussing whether Phillip's sudden action was related to the next shareholder meeting.

"When I delivered the documents, I accidentally heard a few words. It seems that Mr. Brenton hasn't decided on the next master of the Moore family. It is still uncertain who will take over the Moore family in the end!"

"It is said that the group of people who were fired belong to Adam, the eldest grandson of Mr. Brenton."

"Speaking of that, Mr. Phillip is at a disadvantage. Adam has the support of the Lind family. If Adam really wants to fight with Mr. Phillip, he is more confident than Mr. Phillip!"

When Ann and Daisy were having dinner in the canteen, they heard the discussions of these people. Ann's expression did not change at all.

However, she was a little worried.

A noble family like the Moore family could do anything to fight for power.

Not to mention that Phillip had a car accident before.

"Are you worried?" Daisy asked as she knocked on the table in front of Ann.

Ann came back to her senses. The corners of her mouth twitched, with her eyes dodging. She forced a smile.

"I don't know what you are talking about."

Daisy, on the other hand, curved her red lips slightly, "Recently, someone in the Moore family has indeed tried to sow discord. They want to cause mischief in the shareholders' meeting, forcing Phillip to step down."

Ann paused for a moment, but she quickly adjusted herself and smiled.

"I see..."

However, she could not help but frown.

"However, these people are not a threat to Phillip."

Daisy's tone was casual and cold.

However, when Daisy saw that Ann was at ease, she changed the topic.

"But after this matter, according to the habits of these rich and powerful families, in order to stabilize their power and prepare for the fight in the future, most of these people will choose to seek outside help. The best way is to unite by marriage."

Ann's hand trembled, and the slippery croquette instantly fell on the white table, rolling around, leaving a dark mark.

Ann looked up to meet Daisy's smiling eyes. She put down her cutlery.

She said helplessly, "Daisy, I've broken up with him. You don't have to sound me out like this."

Daisy pursed her red lips, "I just you won't regret it in the future."

Ann revealed a forced smile.

Regret?

It was destined that she was not even qualified to regret because of their relationship.

Unless he was not Melinda's son...

Ann shook her head and tossed aside those unrealistic thoughts.

She looked up at Daisy, "Did you never ask about my emotional life before? Why are you so enthusiastic all of a sudden? What did he give you?"

Daisy raised her eyes and looked at Ann with a faint smile.

Daisy said, "Someone once asked me to help him look after you. Phillip's favor is not something that ordinary people can get."☐☐
