The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Back at the Summers mansion, Carolina wore a rare hint of a smile. It felt like that night at the hotel was destined to change everything. Nick seemed surprised too, but he couldn’t hide his delight.

As for Yasmine, her feelings were a tangled mess. In her heart, she knew terminating the pregnancy was the logical choice. The Summers had been decent to her, and they owed her nothing. But having lost a baby once before, the thought of going through that again was unbearable.

Now, with the attitude of the Summers, it was clear that they would never agree to her not keeping the baby. And honestly, she couldn’t bring herself to tell the truth either.

The Summers had a reputation to uphold in P City, and she, pregnant with another man’s child, married into their family, would be a scandal they’d never live down.

No matter how she looked at it, there was no justification for getting rid of the baby.

Bryson and Derek later found out that Yasmine was pregnant and her decision to keep the baby. Despite their initial reservations about the Summers family, they couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy when facing them.d2

Nick’s transformation was notable after their marriage. Even though it was only a short two months, the situation had gradually improved. Nick’s reputation and public image had been slowly building up, and under Yasmine’s guidance, the other industries of the Summers family had experienced modest enhancements.

With the baby on the way, Bryson pledged to pass half of his shares and other assets to the child upon birth, ensuring this little baby and the Summers family would maintain their grandeur.

But with prestige came envy, and the Summers soon found themselves the target of hungry eyes.

Yasmine’s pregnancy put all plans of getting closer to Nick on hold. But let’s face it, Nick was a man. And he had needs. Reality set in, and eventually, he sought comfort elsewhere.
