Mr. Tycoon's Pregnant Wife

SLOW BURN ROMANCE There’s no stopping a man who’s set to get what he wants. *** Avery Taylor had enough of her fiancé's excuses. She ultimately broke up with him as soon as he was pictured entering a hotel with an actress. Matters became even more complicated when she discovered she was one month pregnant. The only problem was, she didn't know who the father of the child was, considering that she and her fiancé hadn't seen each other for three months. On one unexpected night, she encounters a stranger, disguised as her savior! But Aidan was not at all what Avery had expected. At least, he wasn't exactly the hero or the man anyone expected him to be. ... Aidan had to hear the news of her running away from home—abandoning him. He had waited for years for her to return. However, he never imagined that he would meet the woman who had broken his heart and left him breathless, now carrying a child in her womb. Rather than be discouraged and give up, Aidan saw this as an opportunity. A sweet and ripened fruit, he would take pleasure in savoring. Now, time is ticking.

Chapter 21: Pretending to be Obedient

"Hello?" The voice of a woman soon entered Avery's ears, but it took her a while to react. When she finally found her voice to speak.

Stutteringly, she said, "I—is this Aidan's phone?" 

The voice replied, "Yes. Oh, are you looking for him? He just entered the shower. Do you want to wait for him to finish?" As soon as these words fell, Avery's heart also thudded heavily in her chest. 

A sense of unease washed over her, and for some , she didn't want to find out what was making her feel this way.

"No need. I'll just call him again later." Avery paused and thought of something, before adding, "Can you keep it a secret that I called him?"

"Hm? Well, I won't tell him. But he'll see it if he looks at his call log," the female voice said. 

Avery, her gaze fixed dazedly on the floor-to-ceiling window, murmured, "Thank you."

'Toot—'

The call ended abruptly.
