My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 78: What Did You Just Say 

At those words, Wesley froze, his fists still poised to strike.

"W-What did you just say?"

"I'm pregnant.I am carrying your child," Evie said slowly.

"If you want to keep hitting me, go ahead! Kill us both!" Wesley stood still in shock.

He had been married for twenty years! Back then, he had fallen madly in love with Tara and decided to spend his life with her.

Their marriage was a happy one, at least at first.

Tara wasn't spoiled and conceited, despite her family's wealth and connections.

On the contrary, she was always kind and considering of his feelings, doing her best not to injure his self-esteem in any way.

They truly did love each other for most of their marriage.

When he started his own business, he had too much on his plate.

So they both agreed that it wasn't the best time to have a child.

But when Starlight Media took off, they had already been married for eight years.

They felt ready to have a child then, but despite their efforts for two whole years, Tara couldn't get pregnant.

They visited the best fertility clinics, but Tara's test results were not promising.

The chances of her conceiving a child were very slim.

But she did not want to give up.

She went under a ton of fertility treatments, even tried assisted conception several times.

But nothing had worked.

All the drugs and injected hormones took a toll on Tara's figure.

She started gaining weight, which she couldn't get rid of.

When they got married, she weighed no more than eighty pounds, but after the treatments, she almost reached a hundred and eighty.  Wesley wasn't attracted to her anymore.  The beautiful woman, the one he had married, was gone.  All men like their wives in shape.

After Tara lost her beauty, Wesley started finding it hard to live under the same roof with her.

And the fact that Tara was having severe mood swings due to all the hormones coursing through her body, made things even worse.

Wesley couldn't stand it anymore.

How could he? Living with a grumpy, fat woman was making him sick.

He started pretending he had too much work and he often slept in his office.
