The CEO's Lovely Wife

October is a woman who was cold and devoid of emotions. This was true, until she met Lexus who let her experience a whirlwind of emotions she never thought she had with a gift she never thought she'll receive. Lanna October Park is the calm and charismatic Assistant Director of the Halo Company. She talks only when needed and was not yet seen smiling by her colleagues which made her known as the Halo Company's Ice Director. But unknown to them, she was in fact the eldest daughter of the Park Real Estate Empire of the whole City D. Indifferent with her family's wealth, she decided to be independent and climb the ranks in the business world using her own capability but her stepmother is more threatened by her and so baked a lot of schemes to bring her down and make her unfit to inherit the business. Because October let her guard down for just once, she fell for one of her stepmother's schemes and was then became the talk of the city the very next day. Unbeknownst to her stepmother, the man she was with was in fact the notorious CEO, Lexus Song. Getting her innocence was one but getting pregnant was another making her career and work credibility being questioned. "I'll take responsibility." He said. "No need. I'm already responsible enough to take care of my child." She rejected and turned to leave but was then yanked back and bumped into his hard chest. "Then take responsibility to me." He said shamelessly as he leaned down to whisper in her ear, "You took my innocence so you have to take responsibility, dear wife."

"I am always honest with you and I always put you first in the decisions I have made. I also respect all of your decisions, but…" Lexus' hold of October's hands tightened for a bit, a little tense, before continuing, increasing the tension in the air.

"What is it?" October asked, raising her brow. She was a bit annoyed about how Lexus was going about and running in circles. She already had an idea of what it was but the man was acting too tense with all of this and seemed a little too uneasy. This was not the usual him. To think that he would be too uncomfortable about this.

Lexus tightened his jaws, took a deep breath to gather his courage to say the things that were hard for him to say in front of his wife.

"Please apply for an early maternity leave."

"…?" October was at a loss for words as her mind went blank for a split second. She blinked her eyes a few times before she came out of her trance.

Boy she did not see that one coming.
