CEO Of My Heart Chapter 155

Henry looked at Ellie softly . He felt guilty that she was taking a big risk for the both of them . People outside of his family rarely sid anything good once they found out whom he was . She was carefully avoiding telling others while maintaining honestly . It was a strange place and in truth quite an awkward one . He was not happy that she was doing this for both of them . Having children was as far as he knew quite a sensitive topic for her gender . It was the easiest way for both of them to get what they wanted but it did not feel good to put another in a vulnerability .

"Henry, I was not sure how to bring this up to you, but I have been meaning to for a while . There is something that Chou said that I had been considering . Remember this is from a purely legal standpoint . " Ellie looked cautious as she stared at him .  

Henry was waiting for her to continue but her pause made him almost as neevous as she was . He tried to rea.s.sure her . "Of course . I'm always open to your suggestions . It doesn't matter if it is silly or serious .  I'm not going to be bothered by much . "

She looked into his eyes nervously before taking a measured breath . "I'm sure you have had thoughts of this as well at some point, but have you considered the nuclear option . I know that I am no supermodel or housewife of the year . I am full of defects and have caused you many problems . But here we are—-a silly wife and a serious husband legally bound by a piece of paper . It hasn't been all that bad . What if we stayed married as Chou suggested for three years? I know it's shocking . You don't have to answer the question if it's something uncomfortable . " Her tone changed and she looked at him sharply . "I know that I am imperfect, but I can give you my honest promise that I can put my all into this relations.h.i.+p if you want to try . I can very easily be more than a friend if you wanted that . I don't mean to sound silly but I think a courts.h.i.+p would be fun with you . I think it's silly to throw away something that could be a good relations.h.i.+p just because of a strange encounter .

Henry put his hand on her arm and pulled her to him roughly . His eyes were cold . "Absolutely not . You're wrong for me, Ellie . It's just honeymoon flutters . They will pa.s.s and fade to bitterness . " He tone had grown almost grim . He looked disappointed in her . Henry had trusted her to not do this sort of foolish female thing . He liked being around her and Ellie was one of the few female friends whom he was safe . It was odd . Why would she do something so reckless as to destroy the foundation they had built together? It would not end well .  

The awkward paused stretched into a full stop that was felt at both ends . His eyes pierced into her cold and angry as his grip tightened on her hand . Her face was serene as soft like she had just been admiring the flowers instead of telling him her true feelings . She was a beautiful girl —- crazy, loving, loud . Who wouldn't wonder what it would be like to be the center of her existence? It would be glorious for her eventual special someone .
