CEO’s Romantic Affair

He looked into Cathryn’s eyes, and he slightly loosened his frown.

Standing straight, he stretched out his arms and held Cathryn.

Their bodies clung to each other through thick clothes, and their hearts were beating wildly in their chests. Keith held Cathryn’s waist with one hand and gently put the other hand behind her head, stroking her to appease her.

“Yes,” replied Keith softly.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Hearing his answer, Cathryn closed her eyes and smiled. Keith’s body was warm, and she could feel his warm breath on her neck, and it sent a thrill of excitement through her body. She instantly remembered the smell of his cologne and how soothing it was to her.

What Keith had said was right. The best way to forget someone is to fall in love with another person. The father of her child was a good choice, but he was destined to belong to another woman. The thoughts of it made Cathryn feel somewhat sad.

Leaning against Keith, Cathryn tilted her head and then adjusted the line of sight to look at Jordan and Athena. The two of them were still being interviewed, and Athena still kept talking with a smile. On the other hand, Jordan was looking in the direction of Cathryn with a gloomy look, and nobody knew what he was thinking.

Cathryn admitted she was selfishly using Keith’s missing the baby to fight against Jordan and Athena. Why wouldn’t she? They were showing their affection in front of her. She wanted to show Jordan in the same way. She wanted him to know that although they were divorced, she was not desperate or in pain. Instead, she was living happily ever after.

Cathryn felt somewhat guilty for her own selfish behavior. After they got into the car and went back to Flower Island, Cathryn took out the snacks and gave them to Catherine. She was helping her put her things away. Cathryn gave her some of the snacks and told her to share them with the others. As for the rest, she was going to give them to Keith.

After there were only Cathryn and Keith on the second floor, Cathryn winked at him and then took out the snacks. They were packed in a steel box to prevent them from being rushed. She opened the box and handed it to him. In the box, there was a row of snacks evenly placed on a layer of wax paper, and these snacks had been fried brown and crisp, looking extraordinarily appetizing and delicious.

“These were made by my father. Would you like to try some?” Cathryn asked. She was obviously over enthusiastic because she immediately picked up a piece of food and directly put it into Keith’s mouth. Then, without waiting for his appraisal, she squatted down and continued to open another box.

“Were you and Mr. Riggs on the same flight?” Keith suddenly asked.

Cathryn didn’t want to talk about it, but Keith did. He looked at her, and she was deliberately trying to hide her emotions by changing the topic. Keith’s eyes gradually became deep.

After hearing what he had just asked her, Cathryn took a deep breath and then paused. She was feeling a bit embarrassed, and her earlobes started to turn red.

After a while, she stood up with a box of snacks in her hands, and without looking at Keith, she said, ” Sorry, I took advantage of you when we were at the airport.”

Keith, who was an intelligent man, could tell at a glance what Cathryn was thinking.

Just now, she had been so enthusiastic that he had immediately known that she had been trying to please him. She couldn’t hide her disappointment. She bit her lower lip to keep them from quivering. Seeing Cathryn standing next to him unhappily pouting and looking somewhat guilty, Kei smiled faintly and then raised his hand to touch her head. Lightly stroking Cathryn’s soft hair with his hand.

He said in a low voice, “Just tell me straight if you want to do that again next time.” It was she who had done something wrong to Keith, but it seemed that he was comforting her. In general, if a man were used in this way, he would undoubtedly feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Cathryn thought she had gone too far, and Keith still treated her tenderly. He smoothed down the ripples in her heart, and then she looked up at him. She

looked straight into his bright and deep blue eyes and felt like she was about to sink into his tenderness.

“Aren’t you angry?” asked Cathryn. Pulling the chair aside, she put the box on the table and looked at him, smiling rather innocently.

“Now, you are willing to use me to fight against Mr. Riggs. Does it mean you are trying your best to forget the past?” Keith faintly smiled and said, “I don’t want you to be sad. So, if forgetting Mr. Riggs will make you happy, I will do whatever I can to help you.

Just as Keith had finished saying, Cathryn slapped the table and blurted out,” You’re right!” Feeling her palm numb, Cathryn hurried to withdraw her hand. She blushed and smiled with relief. Then, she went on, ” For the sake of the baby, you have to keep me in a good mood.”

Amused by Cathryn’s far-fetched explanation, he looked at the redness on her palm and then pulled her hand to help her rub it.

Looking at him, she approvingly said, ” You’re going to be a perfect father.”

He slightly raised an eyebrow and added, “I’ll be a good husband, too.”

Cathryn didn’t hear Keith’s words. As he was looking at her hand, Cathryn leaned back. She took another box out of the suitcase with extreme difficulty, and then her eyes immediately brightened up after opening it. Cathryn screamed, “An apple pie! Would you like some of this?”

“Sure,” replied Keith.

Though Cathryn had said these snacks were gifts for Keith, she had still eaten a lot of them. Full of food in her mouth, Cathryn chewed as she said to him, “These snacks are more delicious when they’re warm. When you go to my home, I’ll ask my dad to cook these for you.” Just as she had finished saying it, she immediately choked on her food before he could react.
