CEO's Passion Ceaseless: My Dearest Pharm Girl

Chapter 3 The Morning-After Pill

Henry interrupted Claire. He carried her on his shoulder once more and strode into his room. He threw her hard on the bed and the next second, he was on her, leaving no chance for her to flee.

The Mu Family knew what Henry had done and they all turned pale. Henry had caused quite a stir!

"Mr. James, it seems that there is no need for us to continue our conversation. We have got the message!" scoffed the man from the Mu Family.

The man didn't give him a chance to explain. He simply shook James's hand and left. James was furious! In the past, Henry had been very calm while dealing with difficult situations, but today he had acted impulsively and irresponsibly. It was a bad idea for him to bring that woman back into this house and now he had boldly carried her off to his bedroom, right in front of the Mu Family!

The night was going to be a tumultuous one, but at this point, Henry was solely focused on Claire's release. Tears were welling up in the corners of her eyes. This was a nightmare for her, but little did she know that this was just the start!

The next morning, Claire was awakened by the man beside her. She opened her eyes in a daze and realized that she was in a strange environment. An involuntary shudder ran through her body. She sat up and looked around in bewilderment, as if trying to confirm something.

Henry was buttoning up his shirt when he saw her reaction. He glanced at her and mocked, "From now on, you are Mrs. Claire, daughter-in-law of the Gu Family. You can say and do whatever you want. But if you dare to cheat on me... I will make you regret it."

Henry threatened her as the smile on his face disappeared and was replaced by an unfathomable expression, which made Claire's scalp tingle. She was an innocent victim, who had unwittingly got involved in the affairs of this wealthy family. She just wanted to live a peaceful life.

After forcing himself on her the previous night, he coolly walked out of the bedroom in the morning as though nothing had happened. However, he didn't know what endless hardships were in store for the two of them. As soon as Henry went downstairs, James and Sean Gu besieged him.

They knew that his time yesterday with the new girl was special, but he had behaved so shamelessly in front of the Mu Family. Didn't it occur to him that his actions would push the Gu Family into trouble? How could Henry be so careless and stupid!

Looking at the obscure expression on his family members' faces, Henry smiled softly. His grandfather, James, was incensed at his casual behavior. "Henry, do you intend to explain yourself? Did you do it on purpose yesterday?"

Henry adjusted his tie and sneered, "There's nothing to talk about. I'm married to that woman. Grandpa, you don't have to worry about it. I know what you're thinking. Would you really let me marry a woman who can't have children? I don't think so. None of the Mu Family's members are here now, so you can stop this disgusting drama!"

Henry had always been respectful toward James because he was his grandfather. There was a very special bond between them. But now, he was being treated like a bargaining chip!

A tense silence hung in the air. Sean Gu didn't speak because of his past misunderstandings with Henry. He didn't know whether or not he should say something to diffuse the situation. Finally, he sighed and turned around in a daze. Henry relaxed and left home.

Looking at Henry's retreating figure, James pulled a long face. Then he glowered at Sean and scolded him, "Did you have to spoil him like this? This child has morphed into another person. He is just making trouble out of nothing!"

Guilt was written all over Sean's face. He shook his head slowly and finally sank into the sofa with a look of resignation. He knew that it was all his fault that Henry had become like this! If he had spent

more time with his son in his childhood, things wouldn't have been like this! Unfortunately, it was too late to correct himself now.

Claire waited until it was quiet downstairs and then got out of bed. She was sore all over from last night. Then she washed her face and rinsed her mouth. After putting on her clothes, she walked out of the room gloomily.

When she went downstairs, she was unexpectedly detained by his family. After explaining several times that she did not agree to marry him, Claire endured the humiliation and taunts of his family members and left in tears. She could see the hostility in their eyes! She couldn't bear to stay there for another second.

As for the man, he was a stranger to her and she didn't want to pursue this so-called relationship any further. She knew that if he could afford such a palatial house, he was very rich. She couldn't fight him.

The first thing Claire did, after going back to the pharmacy, was to take an emergency contraceptive pill. Even though she lost her virginity, she didn't want her future to be destroyed like this. Plus, there was another important matter that she needed to investigate. She wanted to check what was wrong with the medicine she had given the pregnant lady. How could she have miscarried due to the medicine? If her boss found out, Claire would probably lose her job!

She had just taken the pill when her good friend, Bonnie Bai, came up to her and asked with concern, "Claire, where did you go yesterday? I went out to buy porridge for you. When I came back, you were gone. I was so worried about you! And don't worry about the medical fees. I just got my salary. I don't require so much for the time being. I can give you some if you need it!"

For Claire, Bonnie Bai was not only her benefactor, but also a dear friend. Whenever Claire was in trouble, she was the first one to help her. Although Claire owed her tens of thousands, Bonnie Bai

always treated her kindly and offered her monetary help whenever she was in need. Thinking of her past and what she had gone through the previous night, a lump formed in Claire's throat.

She sniffed hard and tried to hold back her tears. "Bonnie, without you, I would be in such a terrible state..."

Bonnie Bai responded with an understanding smile and stroked her hair affectionately. 'This child is always so stubborn and pitiful!' she thought to herself.

The moment of warmth did not last long, because Henry arrived at the pharmacy. He stormed into the store and pulled Claire out in full view of the public, despite Bonnie Bai's protests.

Thinking of what had happened last night, Claire shivered instinctively. She gritted her teeth. "What the hell do you want to do, you mad man! I said I wouldn't marry you!"

Even if they were legally married and she even lost her virginity to him, she still didn't want to accept such a twisted fate!

However, Henry was in no mood to listen to her. He threw Claire into the car and drove away. Bonnie Bai could only stand by and watch helplessly. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Henry gripped the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He suddenly rolled down the window. The cold wind hit Claire's face and she took a deep breath. What on earth was this man planning to do now?

Claire's face had a deathlike pallor. She turned to look at Henry and asked, "We haven't met each other before, right? It's illegal for you to kidnap me like this! I know you are from a rich family and you are a playboy. I don't want to fight you and I won't ask you for a penny. So let's end this decently, okay?"

Henry braked abruptly upon hearing these words.

He grabbed Claire's chin, forcing her to look at him. "Look, woman! You killed my first child. Do you think I will let you get away with it?" he demanded.

According to him, she had killed his child, so he would use her to get another child. His plan was so warped! Claire was amused by him. She worked in the medical industry and knew how painful it was for a woman to lose the right to be a mother. But it was not her fault. How could he ask her to make this sacrifice?

Henry regarded her calmly for a long time before saying, "Listen carefully. If you don't want your family to be destroyed, you'd better do as I say. I will give you the title of Mrs. Claire, daughter-in-law of an affluent family. I will also give you more money than you can imagine. Once you give birth to the baby, you can leave at any time. Of course, if you want to stay in the Gu Family, that's possible too. But you'd better not interfere in my private life!"

He was offering her a good life. If Claire continued being uncooperative, she would have to face the consequences and have only herself to blame! Henry's words rendered Claire speechless. There was no way she could refute now. She was lucky that this rich, powerful man didn't sue her. Now that he was willing to loan her money, perhaps she could pay off her mother's medical fees. Maybe this made it okay for her to give him a child?
