The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1785

Rose packed her own lunch.

Sure, the office had a cafeteria, and it was known for its strict standards when it came to food safety, but she still

felt more comfortable eating food she cooked herself, even more so now that she was expecting With no one to

look after her, she had to take extra care of herself

She wouldn’t compromise on anything regarding her child

There was a microwave in the break room. After heating her meal, she returned to her office. After just taking a

few bites, the phone rang. She took a glance at the paused and took a spoonful of food before answering

“Hello“c2

“Rose dear, you’re back, right?” It was the voice of Grandma Megan.

“Yes, I got back yesterday.

“So you’re at the office now

“Yes, I’ve got some things to take care of is there something you need, Grandma?

Grandma Megan sighed. “Would you come back home when you have time? You haven’t visited much since moving

out and especially now that you’re pregnant, you cart always be so busy Come home tonight I’ll have the kitchen

prepare something delicious for you

Rose paused with her spoon in mid–air

“Rose, you need to come back. You’re pregnant now. You can’t overwork yourself. You have to prioritize the baby

I’m not just saying this because the baby in a Witt, but also because you’re a mother I suppose you know how

precious and important that child is to you, right?”

Rose slowly put down her spoon her voice steady. “I know!

“Don’t push yourself too hard and if you have any problems, just tell me I’ll do everything I can to help you.”

Rose slightly smiled. “Thank you, Grandma ( come by tonight”

“Good good

Megan hung up the phone, her smile fading as she dialed another number. As soon as the phone was answered,

she snapped, “Come home for dinner tonight?

A deep, indifferent voice came from the other end. “I will check my schedule”

“I could be dead tomorrow. See if you can make some time to see me one last time!

With that, she slammed down the phone.

Molly, her daughter–in–law was startled by the outburst. “What’s the matter? Why would you say you’ll be dead

tomorrow”

“It’s your beloved son’s fault. Can’t even come home for dinner without scheduling it.

Molly pursed her lips, speechless Morrison was indeed a headache. Any mention of him was bound to bring trouble.

“Let’s see if he comes home tonight If he doesn’t I really will drop dead for him to see. Make sure to tell him it was

all his fault.”

Megan stormed off into the kitchen, her voice echoing down the hall “Make sure to cook his favorite dishes. The

ungrateful brat only knows how to upset me. Put some dog poop in his food”

Molly sighed

Of course the staff wouldn’t really put dog poop in their food. They knew very well that Megan didn’t mean what

she said. While angry, she was still demanding they cooli her grandsons favorite food

She knew they wouldn’t actually add dog poop if they did, they’d probably lose their jobs.

Rose managed to get in touch with Winston in the afternoon. This time when she returned to P City, she had visited

Mr. Peck.

He was getting on in years, and his legs were beyond recovery, but he seemed to be in good spirits

She had mentioned the new product endorsement to Winston earlier so this was more of a heads up

Winston had turned down many jobs because of his fathers situation, and he was currently free. Mi Peck was

getting tired of him hanging around the house agreed to hoses invite without a second thought

“I have nothing going on might stay there for a while it is so inconvenient to stay at a hotel. Find me an apartment,

and be night over

Rose was pleased. Perfect the owner of the apartment next door is going abroad for a couple of months. Let the

check for you.

Older people generally preferred quieter locations, so the mansion was built on the outskirts quate a ance but the

That was why Rose and Momson were given a separate house closer to the city after their wedding it was not only

Just as she finished her sentence, the sound of a car engine hummed outside the door. At first, Rose didn’t think

much of it, but when she saw the tall figure at the door she was taken aback

It was winter and the days were short. The outside was pitch dark, but the man in the black sut standing under the

bright lights seemed to have an overpowering presence His face always seemed expressionless, at least Rose found

it hard to see anything beyond indifference.

She noticed his gaze land on her for a moment as he entered, but it was so brief that it made her feel like

everything was just her wratha ilusion.

Grandma Megan’s face turned cold at the sight of him, Tinally decided to show up? Could you givet me your

schedda? So that when I’m on my deathba have time to come back and see me off?

Momson frowned the cold air from outside still clinging to him as he walked over “Alright, how do you want me to

apologist

can wait un

Megan glared at him in anger. So I’m the villain now because I wanted you to take a break from work? You’m busy

with rk? How boty can you be if you still have time to

travel abroad”

Rose was taken aback, and her hand, held by Megan, twitched involuntarily

Megan clearly sensed her actions, but Rose just smiled faintly picked up a glass from the coffee table and took a sip

Momson, on the other hand, remained calm, without the slightest change in his expression. Even though Megan

had inadvertently sweated that she was having tim monitored, he remained indifferent

1 was on a business trip

Megan snorted sarcastically, her words laced with undisguised sarcasm Rose, on the other hand, sipped her water

in silence, her face expressiontess

“Are you really that buty? So much so that you have to travel abroad multiple times? Morison, dont forget you’m a

married man now. Whem exactly do you your heart?

Rose knew Megan was desperate to secure her position in Momson’s heart. But at this moment, she felt more

humiliated than ever

All the words emphasized one thing that in Morrison’s heart, there was another woman holding the most important

place Wasn’t she his pregnant wife, the most ndiculous one in this situation?

It was only then that Morrison shifted his gaze to Rose “Is it so wrong for a married man to go on a business trip?”

“Rose is pregnant

“So should I chain her to me 24/7 to please you?”

Infuriated at Morrison’s retorts. Megan hissed, “You you ungrateful grandson”

“Grandma” Rose, who had been silent all this while spoke up. She put down her glass, her palm feeling numb from

the heat

We both have our own jobs to do I understand Morrison’s work commitments We’re both young and it’s normal for

us to be busy”

She said this to defuse the tension between Morrison and Megan, and to defend herself as well. If this continued,

she couldn’t guarantee if Momson everything Like Megan suddenly blaming him was because she had complained

to her earlier.

Megan didn’t say anything more, but gave Morrison a fierce glare

Momson, however was busy eyeing Rose. “You sure seem generous now

Rose managed a smile and slowly stood up from the couch. She knew he’d think of her this way “That’s too kind of

you to say”

She said placidly then turned to the maid standing by Is it time for dinner yet?”

The maid nodded in agreement

Megan also stood up. Then let’s eat

Rose walked over and linked arms with Megan She was not wearing an overcoat, just a grey, long–sleeved knitted

sweater. The fitting garment pregnant belly

Mansons gaze lingered on her as she walked away her side profile devoid of makeup. He had never denied that

Rose was beautiful and fer

out

Having grown up in a wealthy family, of course she was stunning The former prom queen wasn’t just a title she

obtained without reason.

When Momson took a seat beside her Rose’s eyes subtly flickered. His natural and i status: they wouldn’t be sitting

this close

Jid blame fer for

actions created a

feeling within het. If not for their cumart

Seeing this, Megan’s mood improved considerably

The maid served dishes that surted Momson’s taste in front of him and Roses in front of her

The problem was Rose was pregnant and everything looked delicious to her so much so that she couldn’t resist. Yet,

no one but Momson had touched the dates in fur of him. Several times, she found herself reaching for those dishes

only to pull back at the last moment.

Megan was astute enough to catch her predicament. And so she instructed the maid standing nearby. “Swap the

dishes in front of young master and

Ruse and Momson both paused Megan glared at Momson. You oblimeus bral

Morrison glanced at Rose She had just swept her eyes over the dishes in front of him and was about to look away

when she tort has intense, dark jarn steaded herself and said calmly. “Actually I didn’t really want to eat your food

that much

Momson paused for a moment then huffed coldly

The others at the table couldn’t help but chuckia when they heard thes, leaving kose blushing with embarrassment

But the maid did as instructed and swapped the dishes. And Mornace didnt say anything

Now that the dates she had been crawing for were night in front of her hoan let too embarassed

Rose gave her an awkward smile She nodded and took a bite

True to her expectations the dish was a bit bland She was used to her food teng more favortul. As her eyes

wandered to the dishes that had been moved t

side, the regretted her decision

And then she heard the sound of fork being put down. Looking up, she saw Momson putting down fua fuck and

picking up ha glass of water. He dran face expressionless. She was right next to him, close enough to notice his

ears turning md, followed by ba face and neck.

She gaped at him in surprise, then burst out laughing after a few seconds. She had forgotten that Momon didnt eat

spicy food. There had to be a mason for los preference

for bland food

Back in their school days, she had never seen him eat anything spicy. Now she realized that it wasn’t that he didn’t

eat spicy food, he simply couldn’t handle it. She rarely saw him looking so uncomfortable

Her laughter drew a cold glare from Momson Rose put down her fork, stood up and swapped their dishes back

“Hey Megan tried to stop her, but Rose sat back down, leaning on the edge of the table. I prefer these dishes She

said pointing at the dishes in front of her

Megan didn’t utter a word in her world whatever her granddaughter in law fancied was good enough. If Rose was

happy, then that was all that mattered

The maid refilled Morrison’s glass of water for the second time. This time, he merely took a small sip before setting

it down. “I’m fuft “

Rose paused momentarily in her eating but didn’t look up.

Molly, however, whispered “It’s not often we get you to come home for dinner. You’ve barely eaten a thing”

She scowled. “Are you doing this on purpose? We do not need your attitude Eat it, and if you can’t finish it. Il force it

down your throat even if I have to cut off your head”

Megan didn’t hold back when it came to scolding Morrison, her words came out as naturally as breathing, showing

no mercy
