Marriage Games with a Charming CEO

Chapter 75 Heavy Hearted

Chapter 75 Heavy Hearted

Although some people in the company had already secretly speculated about Alicia and Edmond's relationship, it was still unbelievable to them that he blatantly put his arm around Alicia's waist and called her Licia.

Until the crowd came back to their senses, the elevator doors had already closed.

Everyone rushed to pull out their cell phones to share the gossip.

"Look at you, after such a short while, the whole company already knows about our relationship."

During the meal, Alicia handed her phone to Edmond to look at.

All the big and small groups in the company were talking about the two of them being close and leaving work together.

Edmond was still a bit dissatisfied, "It says we're in love, it doesn't say we're married. These people don't have a clue."

He couldn't wait for the world to know about their marriage.

On the way home, Alicia took the initiative to ask, "I've already taken my vacation, where are we traveling tomorrow?"

Edmond's eyes flashed a dark light, "Going to the neighborhood with Mom."

She raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"What's with the sudden need to bring mom along?"

"It's good to get out once in a while. Let her be in a good mood and be in good health."

Alicia didn't hear anything different in his tone, and after thinking about it, she thought he had a point, so she said, "Why don't we find a place to camp."

"The beach?"

"The lake would work. The beach is too sunny."

Edmond nodded, "Pretty much what I planned."

Back at home, both of them started working on the stuff for the camping trip.

When Edmond opened the cabinet, he suddenly saw a box of unopened condoms, and he paused.

The contents of the diary came back to his head.

There was also a medical checkup sheet.

Infertile?

Why had he never heard Alicia talk about this?

Usually, they didn't take any birth control measures. Edmond thought it was because Alicia was willing to have a child with him, so the box of condoms had been left unused.

But now he realized that Alicia knew she wouldn't get pregnant, so she didn't care.

Edmond had spent two months in the obstetrics and gynecology department during his previous internship, and he knew that a woman with this kind of physique would have a harder time than other women if she got pregnant.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but lower his eyes for a long time before picking up the box of condoms and stuffing it into his suitcase.

Alicia's side was almost done. When she walked into the bedroom, she saw Edmond quietly smoking on the balcony.

It seemed like it's been a while since she had seen him smoking in front of her.

His back looked a little preoccupied.

Alicia lightened her footsteps, and as she approached Edmond, she slowly reached out and wrapped her arms around him from behind, first running her fingertips over the man's abs, then placing her palm on his chest.

Edmond's frame visibly shuddered at being teased by Alicia.

He couldn't help but let out a deep chuckle until she was pressed against his back.

"So forthcoming, so you're on top tonight?"

Alicia ignored his immodest words.

"What are you thinking about?"

"We're going camping tomorrow, and when Mom falls asleep, we'll find a nice place to have sex."

"Edmond, you have looked preoccupied since I was off duty."

She revealed but Edmond just smiled.

A moment later, only to see him put out his cigarette and turn to face Alicia, a smile tickling the corners of his mouth. Then Edmond said with the most serious tone she'd ever heard.

"Alicia, I'm your family from now on."

"What's wrong?" Alicia's face flashed with dismay, her eyes glancing over him as she asked, "You have an illness? How long do you have left to live? Do I have my name on the heir to the estate?" © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"..."

Edmond didn't take it well.

"Do I expect me to die?"

"If not, why are you suddenly so sentimental?"
