Becoming Secret Nanny for Possessive CEO-Chapter 183: Romantic Past Story

Five years ago...

Since Edith started dating Callum, she has been very happy because every day Callum always comforts her when she is facing big problems. In contrast, Cliff often disappears from her. Every time she asks for help, Cliff never gets the full affection she longs for. Although when they first started dating, it seemed sweet, as time went by, Edith felt their relationship growing apart. That’s what makes her very happy because Callum is her lifesaver.

There’s even a difference between dating Cliff and Callum. While dating Cliff, Edith never displayed photos of them together in her office. However, since dating Callum, she’s boldly displayed photos of them together on her desk. Her goal is to see Callum’s handsome face, which always motivates her to work.

Edith displayed their recent photo on her desk. She stared at Callum’s overly sweet smile, making her eager to go on a lunch date with him.

However, there was one thing that felt odd. She had been vomiting in the mornings for the past week. She was also afraid and anxious, wondering if she suddenly became pregnant, would Callum make a big deal out of it? Considering that Callum was also known as a perfectionist CEO in everyone’s eyes.

Edith decided to buy a pregnancy test kit during lunch so she could take the test the next morning when she woke up. She had already mentally prepared herself for Callum’s disappointment with her pregnancy out of wedlock. Although Callum had previously said he wanted to take responsibility, she was afraid his parents would change his mind.

Before her date with Callum, Edith stopped by the pharmacy to buy the best pregnancy test kit to ensure accurate results. Then, she returned to the boutique because Callum had promised to pick her up. As she entered her office, she was surprised to see Callum, who had arrived earlier, staring at a photo displayed on his desk.

"Edith, you are so sweet to have our photo on your desk."

Edith looked down shyly, pushing a strand of hair behind her ear. "Because I love the photos of us all these months. When I miss you, I can work while looking at your photos."

Callum put the photo frame back on the table. He quickened his pace toward his lover and embraced her warmly. "I’m so grateful to have you in my life."

"Callum..."

"I’m hungry now. Come on, let’s have lunch first!"

Not only was she experiencing morning sickness, but Edith’s eating habits were also increasing over time. Although Edith didn’t notice it, Callum was secretly aware of it. He wasn’t the type to speak directly, but he preferred silence rather than make his girlfriend uncomfortable.

"Edith, if you feel like it’s not enough, just ask me. I’ll call the waiter for another portion."

"No need. Besides, I have to go back to work after this. If I eat too much, I’ll get sleepy quickly."

"But, I also feel like I didn’t eat enough today. I think I was in a lot of meetings today, so I’m getting hungry quickly." Callum stroked his girlfriend’s cheek with a loving gaze. "Don’t be embarrassed in front of me just because you ate a lot."

Edith nodded. "Okay, I won’t be shy anymore."

Callum laughed, gently pinching his girlfriend’s cheek. "I admit you’re always cute when you’re shy."

In fact, Edith was more likely nervous, curious about the pregnancy test results. The next day, Edith immediately took a pregnancy test in the bathroom. When she saw the test strip showing two red lines, her eyes widened and she nearly screamed. Her suspicions were correct: she was pregnant, but she had only just realized it now.

Now that she knew she was pregnant, how was she going to explain it to Callum? Would he break up with her because she was pregnant out of wedlock? She walked out of the room weakly and went to Callum, who was cooking breakfast for them. If she hid this fact, she already knew he would only become even more disappointed in her.

"Callum, can we talk for a moment?"

Callum immediately turned off the stove and turned around. "What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Edith widened her eyes. "How did you know?"

"Because you’ve been throwing up in the morning lately. I know for sure!" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Finally, Edith gave Callum the pregnancy test kit, trembling. "Actually, I’ve been experiencing it for a week. That’s why I took a pregnancy test when I woke up."

Callum stared at the positive pregnancy test with beaming eyes. He immediately hugged his girlfriend tightly, cradling her in his arms. "Thank you, Edith."

"You’re not angry?"

"Why should I be mad at you? I’m actually very happy that you’re pregnant." His lips landed on hers. "Are you afraid of getting pregnant before we’re married?"

Edith nodded.

"You don’t need to worry. In fact, since the first time we started dating, I’ve wanted to marry you."

"Callum..."

"I want to marry you not because I feel responsible for getting you pregnant, but because I love you."

Tears of joy streamed down her cheeks. She hugged her lover tightly. "I love you too, Callum. I’ll definitely take care of my health until our child is born healthy."

"Now that you’re pregnant, I won’t let you work yourself to the point of exhaustion." Callum took a moment to walk toward the living room, carrying his girlfriend. "I actually want to visit you more often."

"Even though you are also busy working."

"I can ask Patrick to reschedule the meeting if you need my help. I prioritize you over my work."

Edith laughed awkwardly and patted her lover’s shoulder. "What you’re saying now is very different from what you said during that exclusive interview."

"What I said during the interview was true. But if I were to treat you differently than others, I wouldn’t want you to suffer because of my selfishness."

"Callum..."

"After you give birth to our child, let’s get married, Edith. I’ve wanted to marry you for a long time."

Edith nodded, kissing her lover’s lips. "I want to marry you too, Callum."
