Love After One-night Stand with CEO novel Chapter 148

Henry's proposal caused a sensation throughout City C.

More than that, he held a press conference and set the wedding date.

Everyone was discussing the cinderella love story that was happening in real life.

However, before the crowd could respond...

A complaint was posted online.

The content was about how Miss Baker had been accompanying Henry for ten years.

It went into detail and was vivid.

Miss Baker insisted on accompanying Henry when he went abroad to start his career.

It was ten years, and ten years was a lot of time.

If he didn't like her, why were they engaged?

In an instant, everyone sided with Miss Baker, who poured her heart out for Henry.

Everyone thought that Rosa shamelessly seduced Henry and caused this.

They found information on her parents' death.

They said she was a curse that caused her family's death and her brother's heart attack, while she remained fine.

She must be really bad news to bring harm to the others around her.

What Cinderella? She was only a stain to the word.

She was the scheming b*tch and ungrateful person.

Countless curses filled the air.

Sitting in the room, Cecil was so angry that his eyes turned red when he saw those posts.

He kept replying and explaining, but he was alone and weak. He couldn't handle the hundreds and thousands of netizens that retorted him.

For a moment, Cecil's heart beat wildly.

He held the wheelchair and gasped for breath. He looked uncomfortable.

Upstairs, Rosa had fallen asleep.

It was already late when they came back. Plus, she was pregnant. Therefore, she was constantly tired.

After washing up, she fell asleep.

But Henry was awake. He was livid when he saw the post.

Then, he sent a message to Denny.

"I don't want to see any post slandering Rosa!"

"Okay, Mr. Lewis. We'll deal with it right away. They will be held criminally liable."

Henry put down his phone, leaned to one side, and hugged her.

She had fallen asleep in his arms.

Even so, she was frowning as if she was not sleeping well.

He leaned closer and hugged her more tightly. He patted her shoulders as if he was coaxing a child, comforting her.

......

The next day, the post disappeared.

It was replaced by a notice announcing they would hold those who slander Rosa accountable.

Everyone knew who asked to take the post down.

Everyone knew how much Henry cared about his wife.

The crowd began to gossip and speculate.

Henry had breakfast with them in the morning.

Then, he went to the company.

The proposal had led to a drop in the company's stock prices. He had to deal with it that day.

Rosa nodded and promised to stay at home.

Only then did Henry leave with peace of mind.

Cecil seemed to be in a bad mood in the morning as he couldn't sleep because of the post.

When he checked in the morning, every post about his sister had disappeared.

He dragged himself out of his room for food.

But his mood didn't improve.

"Cecil, why are you eating so little?" Seeing that his appetite was not good, Rosa couldn't help asking worriedly.

Cecil smiled and said, "I'm full. I've been sitting the whole day, so I don't have an appetite."

Rosa frowned and looked sad. "Cecil... You can walk. Would you like to try again?"

Upon hearing her words, Cecil froze and avoided her gaze. He said, "Rosa, I am full. I have work, so I am going back to my room."

Rosa looked down, feeling sad. He had been avoiding her every time she mentioned it.

Was he not going to walk again in his life?

"Madam, I just received a call from the security. A lady named Miss Grace Nelson is looking for you. Shall we let her in?"

Rosa was stunned at how early Grace came.

"Aunt Abbie, ask the security guards to let her in. She is my friend."

Aunt Abbie ran to the phone and informed the security.

In less than five minutes, the doorbell rang.

Rosa went to the door and opened it.

Grace looked around, and she did not look comfortable.

"Grace, you're here!" Rosa took her hand and brought her in.

Grace walked in shyly and sat on the leather sofa.

She looked around. Although the decoration here was not magnificent, it was unique.

It was elegant and noble.

Moreover, villas around the area were worth 100 million and could be resold for 3-400 million.

The building Rosa lived in was the largest in the whole and was said to have a private swimming pool.

"Ms.Nelson, coffee." Aunt Abbie immediately came over and served her coffee.

Grace turned and saw that the open kitchen was bigger than her house. A chef was busying himself in the kitchen.

Did it mean Rosa had people serving her and professional chefs?

Grace's face did not look very good. Shouldn't she be the one in Rosa's spot?

"Grace..." Seeing that she didn't speak, Rosa called out to her.

"I'm sorry..." Grace came to her senses and looked at Rosa. The corner of her mouth twitched as she said, "I'm a little shocked. This place... is so luxurious..."

Rosa smiled, but she didn't look happy.

"I don't like it too big. On the contrary, I feel that it's cozier to live in a small house."

Grace frowned, but she took it as Rosa was showing off.

Who was willing to give up on a big house for a small one?

Was Rosa out of her mind?

"Rosa, the whole city was shocked by the proposal. I was so excited that I couldn't sleep." Grace was afraid that Rosa would catch on if she had too many expressions, so she changed the topic.

Rosa smiled and felt very embarrassed.

"Rosa..." Grace took her hand and said, "We once said that we would be each other's bridesmaids. You won't abandon me, will you?"

"What are you talking about!" Rosa smiled and said in a gentle voice, "Of course, I will be your bridesmaid when you get married."

Grace nodded and took a sip of her coffee.

At this time, Aunt Abbis brought the desserts Luke made over to them.

"Grace, try them. Luke is good at cooking."

Looking at the exquisite desserts on the plate, Grace nodded, picked up one, and ate it.

The taste and the appearance were perfect.

It was sweet and melted in her mouth, but it tasted bitter to her.

"Grace, I have some good news for you."

Grace quickly came to her senses and looked at Rosa. She smiled and said, "What's the matter? Is there anything happier than you getting married?"

Rosa smiled mysteriously and looked down at her flat abdomen. "I'm pregnant..."

Grace was speechless.

"Grace..." Rosa called out to Grace again.

Grace was stunned and quickly came to her senses. She looked at Rosa and asked, "What? What did you say?"

"I say, I'm pregnant!"

"Haha," Grace laughed awkwardly. "You're pregnant. You're pregnant..."

She muttered to herself. Her expression was ugly.

"Grace, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so pale?"

"I'm okay!" Grace took a deep breath and looked at her. "Really? That's great. Your baby can attend you guys' wedding. How happy!"

"I didn't expect it to happen so soon." Rosa lowered her head and touched her flat belly gently. She said somewhat helplessly, "To be honest, I didn't expect to get pregnant so soon. I was scared when I found out and even thought of getting rid of them."

Grace frowned when she grasped the point. "Them? Are you pregnant with... twins?"

Rosa nodded with a smile.

"Twins, huh?"

Grace bit her lip. Could Rosa be any luckier?

Rosa was marrying the most powerful man in City C, lived in the most luxurious house, and had many serving her.

Now, she was pregnant with twins!

If she had two sons...

Mrs. Lewis would have to accept her sooner or later?

No!

Grace would never allow such a thing to happen!

She didn't want Rosa to live a life better than hers.

Her child was gone.

Why was Rosa pregnant with two?

She would make Rosa's two children go to hell to accompany her son!

Grace took a deep breath and said, "Did you go for a check-up? Let me have a look at the ultra scan."

"Yeah, give me a minute."

Rosa immediately went upstairs to get the ultra scan.

Grace's eyes reddened as she looked at the two dots that were the same size as her son.

At that time, her child also looked like this, like a small eggplant.

Her son...

Tears fell quietly.

Her son was gone before he could see the world because of Rosa.

She hated it so much!

"Grace..." Rosa panicked. She picked up a tissue and handed it to her. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I'm too happy, Rosa..." She grabbed Rosa's hand and seemed very excited. "I'm happy for you!"

Rosa reached out and wiped away Grace's tears. "Silly girl, why are you crying? We grew up together. I know you are good to me!"

Grace nodded with tears in her eyes and continued, "Rosa, let's take a picture!"

"What?"

"When the baby is born, I'll show them. I want to be their godmother!" Grace said and deliberately frowned. "Or do you think I am not good enough?"

Rosa frowned and said, "Grace, what are you talking about?"

Grace smiled and said, "I'm just kidding. Come on, let's take some photos."

She took out her camera and asked Rosa to hold the ultra scan. The two took a few intimate photos.

In the end, she even took a photo of the ultra scan alone.

After that, Grace chatted with her absent-mindedly for a while.

After that, she heard that Henry would be back for lunch.

Then she found an excuse to leave.

She didn't know why she didn't dare to face him.

She felt that she would reveal her true feelings in front of him.
