Internet Breaking: The Powerful CEO Reveals His Supermodel Wife-Chapter 557: Don’t Get Pregnant

"That straightforward question left Lauren momentarily speechless."

"She couldn’t utter a word."

"Eric was incredibly perceptive, immediately sensing that something was up."

"Eric noticed the obvious change in Lauren’s expression, almost instantly."

"Given her years of understanding Lauren, Eric could tell that Lauren was clearly hiding something, confirming her suspicion."

"Previously, Ava had never been involved in any rumors."

"Ava, though beautiful, was like a rose with thorns, admired from afar but not approached."

"So, in all her years in the industry, Ava really never sparked any romantic rumors."

"This was the first time."

"Upon receiving the news, Eric immediately looked into the online reports, all the various details unearthed pointed to Ava and Jace Kingsley having a close relationship."

"Considering her understanding of Ava, and looking at the photos in the reports, Eric thought Ava might not say she’s in a relationship with Jace, but they’re definitely friends."

"As for how deep that friendship is, that’s hard to say."

"However, from the current situation, it seems that Omnisphere is not eager to clarify things."

"Regarding the rumors, it seems they’re indifferent, or simply letting the reports run."

"It gives an ambiguous feeling."

"Yes, ambiguous, not clarifying, leaving room for misunderstanding."

"Making people feel like Ava and Jace are in a relationship."

"So, Eric felt that both Ava and Lauren were keeping something from her, she needed to clear things up to prepare and avoid potential problems later."

"Ava is a model under Celeste, an international supermodel, she isn’t a celebrity in the entertainment industry, so dating isn’t something Eric opposes."

"As long as she doesn’t end up with an unexpected pregnancy."

"After all, Ava’s influence in this circle is quite significant."

"With her skills, appearance, and strength, reaching new heights is only a matter of time."

"Eric didn’t want Ava to suddenly have a child before that happened, as it would complicate things."

"Eric noticed Lauren’s changing face, and said directly: ’Don’t worry, I’m asking to avoid any potential issues later on.’"

"’After all, Ava is at a golden age, she can’t slack off. If she wants to get married, she can, if she wants to have children, she can too.’"

"’I won’t stop any of that.’"

"’But I do have a condition, which is not too early.’"

"’At least not before thirty.’"

"’Of course, given Omnisphere’s background, if Young Master Kingsley could be a good match for Ava, that would be a good thing, but since I’m from Celeste, I still hope Ava prioritizes her career.’"

"’If she must seize such an opportunity, marrying Young Master Kingsley is fine, just delay having children.’"

"Eric explained her thoughts, hoping Lauren wouldn’t keep anything from her and to tell her everything."

"Initially, when Lauren heard Eric say that, she thought Eric had sensed Ava and Celestial Holdings’ big boss getting married. If that was the case, the secret was out."

"That wouldn’t do."

"She thought anxiously about how to deny it, to keep Eric from realizing Ava was already married, and to Poe Vaughn at that. But to her surprise, Eric only seemed aware of Jace."

"That really was a relief for her."

"Unnoticed was good, unknown was good."

"She felt at ease."

"Lauren relaxed, let out a long sigh of relief, and then said earnestly: ’Eric, Young Master Kingsley does like Ava, but Ava currently doesn’t want to date, much less get married.’"

"’You know, Ava’s not interested in marriage.’"

"Saying this, Lauren couldn’t help but feel sentimental."

"Ava had been someone who really wasn’t interested in dating or marriage, someone who truly locked her heart away."

"Without any trace of feelings."

"Who would have thought that someone like Ava would suddenly get married, it was truly unimaginable for her."

"Eric frowned: ’Are you sure? Those photos, though taken with tricky angles meant to provoke thoughts, show Ava’s expression towards Jace as if she has feelings for him.’"

"Without waiting for Lauren to reply, Eric quickly added: ’Don’t try to defend, I know Ava’s nature.’"

"’In all these years, when has she ever had feelings for a man?’"

"’She looks at Jace differently than she does at other men, especially in that advertisement, aren’t Ava and Jace in a relationship?’"

"’Lauren, you better not be lying to me, I have no objection to Ava dating, she can date Jace.’"

"’Jace’s identity, status, appearance, and conditions are all decent, even though he’s an illegitimate child, he is capable and truly has a shrewd business mind.’"

"’I think it’s fine if Ava dates Jace.’"

"’If Ava really is dating Jace, you don’t have to hide it from me, I support it, but the premise is not to end up pregnant.’"

"Lauren understood what Eric meant, but somehow, hearing Eric put it that way, she couldn’t help but dryly chuckle, saying, ’Ava’s gaze towards Young Master Kingsley is indeed different, but that’s because Ava considers him a true friend.’"

"’Young Master Kingsley is very good to Ava, he goes out of his way to pursue her, but unfortunately, she just doesn’t have feelings for him, and Ava turned down Jace.’"

"’After that rejection, Ava hasn’t been in contact with Jace, now they’re practically strangers.’"

"Lauren really wanted to say that if Ava had chosen someone not as significant as the big boss from Celestial Holdings, even less than Jace, she would definitely intervene immediately."

"But alas, Ava married the big boss, a figure in the business world who strikes fear into others."

"Such a big boss, she truly couldn’t bring herself to say anything to break them apart."

"There was no way, the big boss was too outstanding."

"Comparing carefully, he surpassed Young Master Kingsley."

"Though it’s said being an illegitimate child isn’t ideal, it’s a fact, and this big boss of Celestial Holdings is of proper descent, it’s different."

"’Really?’"

"Eric still found it hard to believe but looking at Lauren’s expression at that moment, she didn’t seem to be lying."

"Eric frowned."

"’It’s true, Eric.’"

"’You know Ava, she has a bad temper, a fiery nature, but she’s kind-hearted. Knowing she’s not interested in Young Master Kingsley, she immediately rejected him, doesn’t delay others, not giving any chance at all.’"

"’Young Master Kingsley was heartbroken.’"

"Hearing Lauren say this, Eric pondered, clearly thinking over something."

"Lauren knew Eric still doubted, feeling the need to dispel Eric’s suspicions, she continued, ’Eric, it’s fine, I see this report might not be a bad thing.’"

"’Omnisphere hasn’t clarified, and we can’t either, after all, Ava endorsed the tourism ad for the Omnisphere Group.’"

"’If we throw cold water on such a good momentum now, it might not be a good idea.’"

"Eric nodded: ’That’s the case, so I haven’t let anyone clarify yet, but...’"

"Eric looked up, staring at Lauren: ’You’re saying, Ava rejected Young Master Kingsley, and he’s heartbroken?’"

"Lauren didn’t understand why Eric would suddenly ask this, she paused, then said, ’Yes, what’s up, Eric?’"

"Eric thought for a bit, then said, ’I’ll give Omnisphere a call.’"
