Pregnant With Twins: My CEO’s Tricky Love

Annie asked a little resentfully, and Georgia simply hugged her to her chest.

“There’s just been too many bad people. So you have to listen to your Daddy and Mommy from now on, Annie, and stay by our side so we can protect you. You and Wesley have to grow up healthy and strong so no bad people can hurt our family again.”

Georgia comforted her word by word and soothed Annie for a long while before she somewhat relaxed, finally even falling asleep in Georgia’s arms, exhausted.

She carried Annie back into the bedroom to sleep, then turned to Wesley, who’d been worried all this while.

“Go sleep with Annie. If you aren’t sleepy, you can go to the toy room and play instead. You see how busy Mommy and Daddy and Auntie Elsie and everyone are. Annie’s in a bad mood these few days, so stay with her and play with her. If she’s sad about anything, tell me and Daddy, okay?”

Georgia was especially gentle when she said that, and Wesley clapped his chest as he gave a guarantee.

“Don’t worry, Mommy, I’ll look after Annie and make her happy and stay with her.”

After settling the children, Georgia made her way back to the living room. Elsie’s voice was guilty.

“It’s my fault. If I’d been a better actor and didn’t react, Annie wouldn’t have noticed anything was off. How could I be so stupid?”

Elsie complained to herself. Wilson grabbed her hand, as if to comfort her.

Georgia showed her a gentle smile as well.

“It’s not your fault, Annie’s just too clever. I’ve been lying to her face all this time and she’d suspected me from early on. Since she couldn’t get any answers from me, she’s trying to probe you for the truth. Kid’s just too smart. It was wrong of me to lie, and now that she knows the truth and she’s cried about it, she’ll get better so long as we get our Vanessa back.”

With that, Georgia turned to Wilson.

“I’d wanted to talk to you about something but forgot in the commotion. The king of Svero’s gotten in contact. He wants to meet me in person. But I’ve got Travis to worry about and the lab and I can’t leave. I might have to trouble you to go to Svero, Wilson. Please negotiate fully on my behalf with them. I’ll also have to continue to leave Vanessa in your hands.

“I’ve already discussed things with the king of Svero. He fully believes that you can represent me in my entirety and has agreed to receive you in Svero. He’s the king over there and there could be political enemies and danger if he left his borders, which is precisely why he’s not doing so. We have to go over to him. He’ll have people pick you up. See when you’re free then get on a flight. You can land in his territory airport straight away.”
