CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake Chapter 1377

Chapter 1377No one spoke again for the rest of the trip.
This chapter upload first at NovelEbook.OrgThey arrived at the hospital soon after.
When they were on their way, Natalie called Caitlin to tell her that they would be there soon.
As a result, Caitlin had been waiting at the entrance of the hospital.
She wiped her tears away when she saw Natalie and the others there. “Nat, hi. You're here.”
“Mrs. Rivers,” greeted Natalie.
The kids greeted simultaneously as well. “Mrs. Rivers.”
Caitlin felt a little better after she heard the kids' sweet baby voice. She forced a smile to her face and
replied, “Hi, kids. Awh, you've gotten so much bigger.”
“Yeah, we're one year older now and are six years old,” said Sharon. She put both hands up and held
out six fingers, making her just the cutest thing ever.
Connor put his hand up as well. “I grew to be three centimeters taller than Sharon, too.”
“That's great. You're both amazing,” replied Caitlin. She smiled as she caressed the kids' chubby
cheeks.
After that, she turned her attention to the man standing beside Natalie. The guy was so tall and
handsome that he drew attention to him. It was virtually impossible to look away, even though all he did
was stand there.
Surprise flashed past Caitlin's eyes.She was getting older and thought she had seen it all. However, that was the first time she saw
someone that handsome. He even exudes an amazing aura. Huh... I used to think that Stanley and
Justin were the most good-looking ones. Who would've thought that there is someone even better-
looking than them? And the way he stands next to Natalie... My gosh, it is as though they are made for
each other.
To Caitlin, the most important bit was the fact that Shane looked just like Connor. That made things
simpler because it was clear who the guy was.
“Nat, this is your better half, isn't it?” asked Caitlin while looking right at Shane.
Natalie nodded. “Yes, he is. Mrs. Rivers, this is my husband, Shane Thompson.”
After saying that, Natalie turned her attention to Shane to make the introductions. “Darling, this is
Joyce's mother, Caitlin.”
“Hello, Mrs. Rivers,” greeted Shane. He extended his hand to shake hers.
Caitlin could tell that Shane was a man of power, so she was a little nervous to extend her hand and
shake his. “H-Hi, I-I'll just refer to you as Mr. Thompson, then. My, you truly are a handsome lad.”
“Thank you for your kind words, Mrs. Rivers,” replied Shane while grinning.
Caitlin retracted her hand. “Oh, there's no need for that. I'm just stating the truth.”
“Let's not talk about this anymore, Mrs. Rivers, and instead make our way to Joyce now. How is she?”
asked Natalie.
Everyone entered the hospital. Caitlin was so devastated that she cried once more. “Joyce is still
unconscious. The doctor said that her cut is deep, so they had to give her a lot of blood. Also...”“Also... What?” asked Natalie after she handed Caitlin a piece of tissue.
Caitlin took that piece of tissue to wipe her tears. A hint of hopelessness flashed past her eyes. “Also,
they said she is pregnant.”
“What?” blurted Natalie. Her expression changed drastically.
Even Shane started to look off at the time.
Natalie's jaw dropped, and it took her some time before she managed to speak again. “Joyce's
pregnant?”
The kids were at the side, so they heard what the adults said and finally figured out what was going on.
Ah, so Aunt Joyce isn't sick. She tried to kill herself by cutting her own wrist. Also, she is pregnant.
“Yeah, the doctor said that she has been pregnant for a month,” replied Caitlin. She nodded with a
broken heart before adding, “Someone must've forced himself on Joyce and got her pregnant.”
“What makes you say that, Mrs. Rivers?” asked Natalie while looking into Caitlin's eyes.
Caitlin covered her lips in sadness. “Why else would she have tried to take her own life? I finally
understand why my baby girl has been acting off lately. She must've been raped, and that is why she
behaved oddly. It also explains why she tried to kill herself.”
Shane's lips parted after he heard that. “That might seem like the most logical explanation, but Joyce
wasn't raped.”
Caitlin instantly stopped crying after she heard that. She tilted her head up and looked at Shane and
Natalie right away. “Natalie, Mr. Thompson, do you know something I don't? Do you know who the
father is?”
