It was supposed to be a fun Friday night—just drinks, dancing, and unwinding with friends. But when Aiden Crawford, a powerful young CEO, set his eyes on you from across the club, everything changed.

One drink turned into deep conversation. A smirk led to a kiss. And before you knew it, you were in his penthouse, tangled in sheets.

“Use protection,” you had asked breathlessly.

Aiden smirked, brushing a strand of hair from your face. “I’m infertile.” His voice was calm, reassuring. “There’s nothing to worry about.”

You hesitated for a second but, in the heat of the moment, you trusted him.

That night, passion consumed you.

One Month Later…

Your world stopped. Positive.

Pregnant.

You decided not to tell Aiden. A CEO like him wouldn’t care, right? You convinced yourself to handle it alone.

What you didn’t know was that he found out anyway.

Aiden didn’t confront you. Instead, he watched over you in silence.

A chocolate cake arrived at your doorstep on random days—your favorite. His private doctor began attending you, subtly checking on your health. And though you never saw them, his bodyguards were always nearby, ensuring your safety.

He never called. Never showed up.

Five Months Later…

You were leaving a café when a familiar deep voice stopped you in your tracks.

“You’ve been keeping a secret from me.”

Your heart pounded as you turned. Aiden stood there, eyes locked on your growing bump.

Your lips parted, but no words came out.

He took a slow step closer, his gaze unreadable. “Did you really think I wouldn’t know?”

You swallowed hard. “You… never said anything.”

A smirk ghosted his lips as he closed the distance, his warm hand suddenly resting against your belly. His touch was firm yet gentle, fingers brushing over the curve as if trying to feel the life inside.

His voice dropped, softer this time. “And yet, you kept receiving chocolate cake… and extra baby gifts too.”
