The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1836

“I want you all to understand, from this moment forward, that Rose didn’t trap

me by getting pregnant to marry me. It was I who deliberately gave her that

opportunity.

“Even if she initially didn’t plan to keep our baby, I wouldn’t have agreed to let

her go. If she hadn’t been carrying my baby, I’d have found another reason to

Morrison, who never wore his heart on his sleeve, who would grimace at the

He had secretly worried about the future of the Witt family line, especially after

learning about Morrison’s past girlfriend.

Now, there in the meeting room, Morrison’s words had been nothing short of

explosive. Riley never imagined he’d see the day when Morrison would brazenly

confess his love in front of a crowd, shattering his stoic image.

Back at the birthday celebration, despite the heavy snowfall, they made it back

to the party in record time.

Molly had been busy hosting the guests when she noticed Morrison’s return,

accompanied only by Riley. A flicker of disappointment crossed her eyes. She
