Sweet Pregnant Wife: CEO Phillip's Fierce Love novel Chapter 13

When Ann got into the car with Nikki in her arms, she was silent for a while. She really didn't know what to say to the CEO of her company.

She had only met Phillip a few times, and it was so awkward the last time they met.

Fortunately, Karl called her back at that moment. Ann's face softened a bit when she picked up the phone.

"Karl ..."

Phillip heard Ann's gentle voice while he was driving. The smile on his face was gone and his handsome face darkened again.

Without waiting for Ann to finish her words, Karl spoke apologetically to her.

"Ann, my superior suddenly asked me to go on a business trip. I was packing my things at home just now, and I'll be meeting with my seniors at the firm. You called me just now. What's the matter?"

Ann was surprised that a green hand like Karl was sent on a business trip, but she didn't say anything in the end. After all, that was Karl's work.

"Oh, it's just that I couldn't get a taxi just now. I'm fine now. Have a safe trip. Don't overwork yourself."

After a pause, Ann peeked at Phillip and added subconsciously.

"Nikki and I will be waiting for you at home."

Phillip looked more serious. What a woman!

After hanging up the phone, the atmosphere in the car became even more awkward. Fortunately, the two kids had been whispering to each other, so the time was a bit more bearable.

When the car arrived at Ann's place, she covered Nikki's small body with her jacket before getting out of the car.

However, she found that Phillip was already standing outside the car holding an umbrella.

Ann's body stiffened as she met Phillip's black eyes which looked bottomless, but she could only say thank you to him politely.

Ann turned around to say goodbye, and then she wanted to take Nikki upstairs.

But Nikki moved in her arms. She stared at Phillip with her big eyes which looked like blackcurrants, and then tilted her head and pointed at Phillip's clothes.

"Mommy, his clothes are wet. He needs to dry his clothes. He will get sick!"

Phillip was sopping wet at the right side of his body. Apparently, he got himself wet because he was trying to cover Ann and her daughter under the umbrella when they got out of the car.

Ann found it difficult to say no, but when she thought that she would be in the same room with this man, she forced herself to say.

"Thank you very much today, Mr. Phillip. You'd better go back home now, or you might catch a cold."

Phillip narrowed his eyes slightly and gave her a complicated gaze. Then, he closed his umbrella and walked straight upstairs.
