CHAPTER 59

CHLOE opened her eyes and looked at the time. It was already 5:30 pm. She couldn't believe that she actually fell asleep at her office table while working. It has been two days since she started working at home and she felt a lot more relaxed knowing that she was alone without anyone stressing her out.

Then, her stomach growled. She chuckled and touched her tummy affectionately.

"Hungry again, baby? I'm sure, I'll gain a lot of weight but for you, I don't care. You're mommy's number 1 priority after all." Yes, she noticed that her appetite doubled but who cares? As long as she eats healthy foods, her baby would surely appreciate it.

She stretched her arms above her head, purring like a cat in the process before standing up to go to the bathroom. She decided to take a quick bath to freshen herself up before going downstairs to eat. It was already 6:45 pm.

That day was calm and relaxing. She finished her work load for the day ahead of time that was why she allowed herself to take a nap a while ago.

After eating, she brushed her teeth and was about to watch a movie when someone suddenly knocked on her door. She wasn't expecting a visitor.

With furrowed eyebrows, she checked the CCTV screen and was surprise to see who it was. Mr. Mikael Larsen, Cross' father!

She was surprised because this never happened before and now that he came over to her place, she suddenly felt her heart pound nervously. She knew that this was about an important matter for sure.

While biting her lower lip, she went to open the door.

"Good evening, Ms. Rosenberg. Sorry for coming unannounced. I hope, I'm not disturbing you right now. Can we talk?" The former CEO of Larsen Corp. said.

"No, Sir. I am not busy right now so it's okay. Please, come in." They went to the living room.

"What do you want to drink, Sir?" She offered politely but he shook his head.

"It's okay, Ms. Rosenberg. Thank you. I just came here to talk to you about something."

"About what, Sir?" He took a deep breath before beginning, all the while staring at her.

"I'll be straight to the point, Ms. Rosenberg. I came here to personally invite you to the welcome party of my son, Cross. Well, if you have time." That actually surprised her and she was at a lost for words for a couple of seconds.

"But—"

"—I know that you already told Vito that you couldn't attend tonight but I was just hoping that you could at least reconsider. You don't have to stay the whole duration of the party if you don't want to finish it but could you at least come for Cross' sake?" Her eyebrows creased.

"What do you mean, Sir?"

"You see, Cross had been down these past few days and he'd been very open to me that you're the reason why he's been like that. As a father, I am very worried about him. Even though he didn't say it out loud, I know that your presence in the party is very important to him. Could you at least be there to support him? I am not forcing you to if you don't really want to but can you at least think about it?" She chewed on her bottom lip, unable to give her answer right away.
