CEO’s Romantic Affair

The Western District was a paradise for the young people, with nightclubs, bars, and shopping centers everywhere.

However, the Eastern District was the gathering of the electronic information industrial area. Douglas City was a developed city with a high and new technology industry. The most cutting-edge top and new technology companies and talents in the United States were all in the Eastern District. Of course, this was just a rough partition, and each district still had the most basic hardware infrastructure.

At the fork of the road, they were just about to enter the Southern District, Keith turned the steering wheel, no longer following the moving company’s van, and drove into another street. Cathryn slowly rolled down the window, the salty wet sea breeze gradually blowing in the window as she was inside the car. Then she raised her head and looked out. After crying all the way, her tears had already disappeared.

Keith parked the car on the plank bridge on the shore, then got out and opened the door for Cathryn. There were few people on the coast, and the trestle led to the sea, connecting with the coastline. It was dusk now, the setting sun reddened the whole sky, and the sea breeze blew softly, making people feel cold.

Standing on the trestle bridge, Cathryn looked at the place where the sea joined the sky, feeling that her oppressive mood had become bright. When she shivered with cold, a layer of warmth suddenly covered her shoulders, and Cathryn turned her head around, finding it was Keith who draped his coat over her.

Her cold body gradually melted and was touched by Keith’s tenderness. Her heart was also full of warmth.

Looking at Keith’s angular face in the sunset, Cathryn gratefully said, “Thank you.” Without his help, she might have had to dance at Jordan’s engagement party. She may have been homeless and tramping the streets because of being driven out of the house by Jordan. She even might have had to turn to her parents for help as she had no money to be hospitalized because of her illness.

Cathryn was very grateful to Keith, although she apparently knew that all his tenderness to her was just because she was pregnant with his child. Hearing Cathryn say thank you, Keith smiled softly.

He raised his hand to help her tidy her hair messed up by the wind, then rubbed her head and said, “You’re welcome. I would do anything for you!”

“I’m sorry, she started crying again,” Cathryn said with a nasal sound, and one more time, her eyes were red and puffy. After the mood was relaxed, she still felt somewhat embarrassed though it was not the first time she had cried in front of Keith. It seemed as though she had cried every time she saw Keith.

“It’s alright, women are made of water.” Keith comforted her. “The more times you cry, the more beautiful your eyes look.”

Amused by Keith’s words, Cathryn took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly to release all the negative energy in her body. Cathryn slowly said, looking at the large sea, “It was at an audition that I was first acquainted with Jordan.”

Cathryn thought it was necessary to explain to Keith what had happened between her and Jordan today. She just wanted to tell him, but she didn’t expect to say more. The sun had set, and she finally felt a sense of relief, as if a vast mountain had been lifted off her.

“I haven’t told my parents anything. I never told them about my marriage to Jordan. I haven’t told them that you are in my life and we are having a baby.”

It wasn’t until now that Cathryn felt guilty about her parents and went on, “Now I think that it was the right decision not to tell them.”

“Do you still love him?” Keith asked her.

As night fell, accompanied by the sound of the large waves from the ocean, he could not see clearly the expression on Cathryn’s face.

“Yes.” Without hesitation, Cathryn nodded and then said with a smile, “But no matter how deep the love is, I can forget. it.”

This was Cathryn’s commitment to herself because she didn’t want Jordan to utilize her love for him to get back at her, or she would not be able to live with herself.

“There is a way to help you forget him faster,” Keith said in a low voice, as if with a glimmer of a smile.

“What’s the method?” asked Cathryn, turning around her head and looking at Keith seriously.

“Fall in love with another man,” Keith casually mentioned.

“But I’m pregnant now.” Thinking Keith was joking, Cathryn rubbed her eyes and smiled, saying, “Besides, I’ve been hurt once, so I’m sure that I will not fall in love with another man right away.”

“You can choose the person you are familiar with,” Keith suggested, “for example, the father of your child.”

The atmosphere between them suddenly became questionable even though the cold, wet sea breeze seemed to carry the temperature of love.

In the darkness, the two of them could not see each other’s eyes, nor could they clearly understand the expression on each other’s faces.

“Ha-ha!” Cathryn burst into laughter, taking the lead in breaking the silence.

“Are you kidding?” Laughing in tears, Cathryn reached out to touch Keith’s arm, then trotted to the side of the car and said, “Let’s go home, it’s so cold!”

However, Cathryn didn’t see Keith’s earnest expression and real eyes in the darkness. She opened the door and got in the car and then fastened the seat belt while shivering with cold.

Looking at Cathryn’s cheeks and earlobes and seeing that they were red, Keith remembered that her cheeks and earlobes similarly turned red the night they had spent together. He vividly remembered the steam in the bathroom.

Keith got in the car with an involuntary smile and then started driving off the bridge.

There would be ample time for him to open Cathryn’s heart. Keith comforted himself. Keith’s car was running steadily and slowly; Cathryn was bored, so she asked, “What brand and model is your car?”

“It’s a Jaguar XJL 5. 0,” replied Keith.
