Love After One-night Stand with CEO novel Chapter 131

Inside a middle class, single apartment...

Grace sat on the bed, holding her phone for a long time before coming back to her senses.

On the top of her Instagram feed was a post captioned "Knight in Shining Armor, Wife Over Mother!"

Their photos have been uploaded.

It was a photo of Henry hugging Rosa on stage.

The man's eyes were as deep as the ocean, his smile bright as the sun.

No matter how she looked at it, he was completely in love with her.

That mesmerising gaze of his would make any woman's heart tremble at the sight of it.

This post already had hundreds of thousands of comments and shares.

Everyone was shocked.

All the women were screaming excitedly.

The comments were flooding in uncontrollably.

It seemed like not every power family needed to have matching backgrounds to get married.

Fairy tales do happen in real life.

The phone dropped from her hand just like that.

His eyes turned red.

"Grace, trust me. Don't provoke my uncle!"

"Why?"

"Don't ask why. Just don't provoke him for your own good!"

Ha!

For her own safety?

Don't provoke that man?

But it seemed like she had already climbed into his bed.

She immediately got rid of Paige and claimed the throne.

How capable was she to be able to do that?

She clenched onto the quilt tightly with both fists, and her face was extremely dark.

Is this really the harmless, innocent Rosa that she knew?

Or was it that she never truly understood her?

"Rosa!!!" She gnashed her teeth.

Not only did she cause her to lose her son...

She was also humiliated by that man previously.

There was no need to think anymore.

She knew why that man hated her so much.

It must be because of her talking bad about her behind her back!

Was this what a friend was supposed to be like?

At this moment, Grace's hatred for her grew stronger.

"Rosa, I will make you regret it!" She swore to herself.

"Miranda, what kind of friends have you been making? Haven't grandma told you that you shouldn't be mingling with poor students? Look! Now your uncle has been seduced!"

She was so angry that she almost fainted.

At this moment, she was lying on the bed and speaking weakly.

Miranda sat on the sofa, still in a daze.

Rosa became her aunt?

"Mom, how can you blame Miranda? Miranda is innocent. Who could've known this would happen?" Asher was a powerful woman on the outside.

But in front of Miranda, she was a gentle mother.

Therefore, when Miranda was scolded, she naturally stood up immediately.

"Look at what's happening! There are so many comments on the post. We don't even know if the Lewis family's stock price will drop tomorrow!"

Their reputation would be ruined.

As a listed company, any incident would affect its market price greatly.

"Don't worry, mother. I'll see what I can do. I'll have a good talk with him tomorrow," Asher said in a hurry.

Geoffrey pouted as he thought, "Shouldn't they know better than me how my brother-in-law is like?"

Who would be able to threaten him?

"Asher, you must persuade your brother. This marriage is not a joke. You also saw how heartbroken Paige was today!" Mrs. Lewis' headache worsened.

"That's enough. There's no need for you to worry about it anymore. Even if you're upset, he's already married."

Mrs. Lewis looked at him and frowned as she said, "What do you mean he's already married? They haven't even had a wedding ceremony, how could he be married?"

"Mom, they have a marriage certificate. According to the law, they are already husband and wife." Brandon could not help but say.

"Shut up. Are you still his brother? You can't even control your own younger brother!" Mrs. Lewis shook her head angrily when she heard his words.

Janessa, who was beside him, grabbed his hand and shook her head, signalling him to stop.

"Ah, what have I done? It wasn't easy for the Lewis family to get here. If your brother does this, he will definitely destroy us!"

No one said a word.

Everyone silently knew.

For ten whole years, Henry was the one who got the Lewis family to where they are now.

Even if something happened to the Lewis family, it had nothing to do with him.

"Alright, alright. you guys need to start giving some ideas! You're all useless!" Mrs. Lewis shook her head in anger. "Get out, get out, all of you!"

"Mom, what are you doing? I know you like Paige as your daughter-in-law, but what's the point of making a fuss now?" Asher couldn't help but argue.

Mrs. Lewis glared at her as she said, "What? Since you married into the Garcia family, you don't care about the Lewis' anymore, do you?"

Asher stood up and frowned. "Mom, why would you say that? I married into the Garcia family and have done a lot for the Garcia family. But I have always placed the Lewis Mansion first. I've also helped a lot these years!"

Mrs. Lewis didn't say anything. She was fuming.

"That's enough, Asher. Don't you know your mother's temper?" Mr. Lewis hurriedly advised.

"Dad, didn't you hear what she said?!" Asher was very angry.

Over the years, she had indeed boosted the Garcia family. However, whenever something happened to the Lewis family, she would be the first to help.

"Alright, no matter what, she is still your mother!" Mr. Lewis was upset.

Asher rolled his eyes and fell silent.

Suddenly, Mrs. Lewis began to sob.

Because of this, everyone was stunned.

"Mom, why are you crying?" Asher panicked.

"Mom!" Brandon stepped forward.

Janessa and Geoffrey also stepped forward to comfort her. "Don't cry, mother."

"Mom, don't worry. We will definitely help you!" Asher couldn't bear to see her mother cry.

Mrs. Lewis looked at them and said, "I'm doing this for our family. You all know this, right?"

Everyone nodded, except for Janessa.

"Ha! 'for our family'?

"More like 'for her reputation'," She thought.

"I'm doing this for your brother. If he had married Paige, the Lewis family would have dominated City C!"

It was her ambition. Even if she died, she wished to see the Lewis family thrive.

No one could match them in City C.

"Why don't you like Miss Lopez? I like her very much!" Suddenly, the young master came from the door.

Everyone was stunned and turned to him.

"Why should we like Paige? She's so fake." the young master said as he played with his Magic Cube.

When Mrs. Lewis heard this, she said, "How can this child talk like that? Are you trying to p*ss me off?"

Janessa hurried forward and stopped the young master. She looked at Mrs. Lewis and apologised, "Mom, I'm sorry. He's still young and ignorant."

"That's for sure. Eric is only eight years old. Who knows what you've been telling him behind our backs!" Mrs. Lewis rolled her eyes.

Janessa's face instantly turned pale.

"Mom..." Brandon frowned.

"Let's go!" Janessa didn't want to stay any longer, so she took the young master's hand and walked out.

"Janessa..." Brandon was about to chase after her.

"Brandon, come back!" Mrs. Lewis stopped him.

"Mom..."

"Come and discuss the countermeasures. Your brother's matter has not been resolved yet. You still have the mood to care about others?"

Brandon frowned and looked displeased.

Mr. Lewis hurried forward to grab his wrist and shook his head, indicating that he should not go against her mother.

"Anyway, you all have to start brainstorming. I will never allow that woman to enter the Lewis family!" Mrs. Lewis said.

Everyone sighed and didn't know what to do.

Henry's stubbornness was incomparable!

At the Silver Beach Villa...

"Get up and eat something, okay?"

"I'm sleepy," she muttered.

"You can sleep after you eat. You haven't eaten anything for a whole day, hmm?" The man coaxed her softly.

However, she was still frowning, a little confused and unhappy.

As soon as she moved slightly, the down jacket slipped down from her shoulder.

"Hurry and get up!"

Rosa opened her eyes in a daze. She seemed to be half-awake.

"No... I feel so tired..."

The man smiled and helped her up.

"Alright, get up and eat. Aunt Abbie brought the food here."

"But... I'm so sleepy..." She closed her eyes.

She had trouble sleeping last night, thinking about how Cecil and Henry's conversation went.

She was really tired.

Henry frowned and sighed faintly. He lowered his head and kissed her face dotingly.

"Be a good girl. You're already too thin. If you don't eat, you'll only be left with bones. You can sleep after you eat, okay?"

Rosa smiled and did not open her eyes. Instead, she muttered, "I'm on a diet..."

"You're not fat at all. You're too thin." He leaned over and woke her up with a kiss.

For a moment, his lips were hot, and his scent was overwhelming.

She had no choice but to open her eyes and glared at him unhappily.

He was panting slightly as he looked at her, making her heart race.

This made her anger disappear completely.

Her crystal clear eyes were blinking.

When Henry came out of the bathroom...

Rosa was already sitting at the table and eating.

"Just now when you went to shower, the strawberry pie Aunt Abbie made was so good."

"Is it delicious?"

"Yeah, it's delicious. It's a pity that you didn't eat it!" Aunt Rong told her that Henry didn't like strawberries.

The man sat down on the stool. Seeing that she ate with satisfaction, he couldn't help but smile.

Rosa took a bite of the strawberry pie and handed the rest to him. She said vaguely, "Well, try... try it.. it's good."

Seeing this, he smiled and leaned forward. His right hand grabbed the back of her head and pulled her closer.

He landed a kiss on her lips and tasted the strawberry in her mouth.

After a while, he commented, "It's really sweet and fragrant. You're right, it's delicious!"

Rosa was speechless.
