CEO’s Romantic Affair

Chapter 29: It Was Impossible For Him To Love Her



Cathryn didn’t know what John had spoken to the masseuse or what she was saying to her, but she felt the masseuse was very respectful to her.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Once the massage was over, Cathryn felt that her whole body was relaxed. She felt so comfortable that she unexpectedly fell asleep on the massage table. When Keith came back, Cathryn had been awakened by Eva to have her afternoon tea.

Seeing Keith coming in from the doorway, who had just selected some dessert from the refrigerator, he smiled and asked, “What kind of dessert would you like?” Keith went over and picked out a piece of chocolate cake, while Cathryn chose a cheesecake, and then they went to the tearoom together.

The tearoom was off to the side of the recreation area. There was a round table and two dark-colored sofas in the tea room. Looking out the window, she could see the deep blue sea with incredibly soothing rolling waves. The roaring and pounding obliterated all other sounds, and her mind was awash with exhilaration.

When Cathryn was eating the cake, Keith handed her a small box. The little box was beautifully wrapped and tied with a purple bow. Cathryn subconsciously said thanks to Keith and then opened it quickly. Inside the box, there was an exquisite green jade bracelet placed on a white satin cloth.

Cathryn didn’t know a lot about jade bracelets, she only searched for how to maintain the bracelets after Jordan bought one for her. Nevertheless, looking at the shiny, bright bracelet that Keith bought her, she knew from the quality of it that it was costly.

Cathryn was just about to return the bracelet back to Keith when he said to her softly, “Please accept this gift from me, God blesses this bracelet, and it will bring good health to you and our baby.”

Stunned by his words, Cathryn asked, “Really?” Cathryn’s eyes wandered between the bracelet and Keith’s. After thinking for a moment, she put the bracelet on her wrist. She didn’t have any reason to refuse since he bought the bracelet for the sake of their child.

The bracelet that Jordan bought her was broken, and Keith bought a new one for her immediately, she could feel the affection growing in her heart. She felt a bit ashamed and quickly shook her head and swept the thought away from her mind.

“He was already in love with another woman, so it was impossible for him to love her!” Cathryn reminded herself. After calming herself down, Cathryn looked up and said to Keith, “I can be very careless at times, what if I break this bracelet?”

Hearing Cathryn’s words and how worried she was, Keith smiled faintly and then replied, “It doesn’t matter if the bracelet gets broken, as long as you don’t hurt yourself again.” He wanted her to feel comfortable and tried to put her mind at ease.

“How could he be so attractive?” Cathryn wondered. Cathryn blushed and instantly shifted her eyes from Keith’s face, her heart was pounding. Her eardrums vibrated as her heart beat against her chest. Cathryn finally calmed herself down and suddenly remembered something. Looking up at Keith, she asked, “Where are you going to celebrate Christmas?”

“In Germany, my whole family, including my parents, live there.” Looking at Cathryn’s eyes, Keith asked with a faint feeling of loss in his heart, “When are you going home?”

He was hinting to Cathryn because he had known Christmas was getting close, and he wanted to know what her intentions were. It was only ten days before Christmas, and Cathryn was supposed to go back home. She was from Jonathan City, which was not far from Douglas City. Keith knew that when she went home that it would be a while before he would see her again, Keith’s heart was weighed down by sorrow.

Cathryn was an addictive poison, and as every day went by, he could feel himself getting closer to her, bit by bit. He found himself wanting to spend as much time as he could with her.

“My mom called me today, and I told her I would be home tomorrow. I would like to stay for a few more days after Christmas, so I may not be back until January 5th.” Cathryn replied.

Cathryn hadn’t visited her parents since last year because she couldn’t bear the thoughts of leaving Jordan alone on Christmas. This year she wanted to stay with her parents for as long as she could. After all, she soon wouldn’t be able to go home and visit because she would be unable to hide her belly.

After receiving the call from her mother, Cathryn began to pack her luggage. She looked at her closet, which was full of clothing, and had no idea where to start. So she asked Catherine to help her.

When Catherine helped her pack her things, Cathryn looked around the empty bedroom. Suddenly thinking of Keith, she felt some strange feelings in her heart. In the beginning, Cathryn had thought it was because she was leaving Keith alone on the island. However, after she found out that Keith was going back to Germany to celebrate Christmas with his parents, the strange feelings in her heart still didn’t disappear.

She was going to stay at home for nearly twenty days, meaning that the two of them would not see each other. There would not be any contact between them at all. She was so used to having Keith around that Cathryn felt a strong sense of loss in her heart.

After Cathryn finished telling Keith what her plans were for Christmas, the atmosphere became very quiet. It spread between the two of them. Cathryn cut the cake with a small spoon. It was her favorite dessert, and now she unexpectedly found it to be not delicious at all.

“What about your luggage? Has Catherine packed it for you?” Keith asked.

Cathryn was relieved when he broke the ice with his words. It was like being rescued from an ice cube. She opened her eyes wide and said, “My luggage has already been packed and brought down. There are so many clothes in my closet, I couldn’t decide what to take with me.”
