CEO Of My Heart Chapter 148

With a renewed sense of determination, Henry carefully got up from the comfy bed .  He was careful to make sure the blankets around Madeline were not disturbed so the corgi could continue sleeping .  He was saddened to think that he would have to push back his goals . It was on his mind what if Nadia found a better man while Henry was waiting for his legal paperwork to come through .  It was disheartening to think in the pursuit of retaining his fortune he would lose the woman he was in love with . Henry was nothing like his parents who could find love with other people .  His heart was set on this one . Henry knew that it was possible that he could probably never find another woman like Nadia ever again . She was one of a kind, too precious to lose, but his choices were limited .  Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .

He felt his stomach drop as he finally faced facts .  If Nadia was beyond his grasp, he would have to come to terms with it .  He could probably convince her eventually to entertain him again . He would not be known as an adulterer while he was married .  No one, not even Nadia, was worth risking his principles for . There would be dire consequences down that road .

He looked out into the balcony where there was foliage in a kind of a greenhouse on the floor below them .  It was a calm place where there was a nice variety of swaying greenery and blooming pastel flowers . He had not gone there in quite some time .  

Henry saw shifting shadows below him so he squinted to see more clearly .  It was behind the gla.s.s in the greenhouse . There was a flutter of fabric and his eyes strained .  It couldn't be Ellie at this hour? But there she was . She was in a bright daisy wrap dress as she used underarm crutches to slowly walk around the greenhouse .  Her progress was slow, but sure . Henry knew that her likelihood of injury to herself were much less than when she had been b.u.mbling along the corridors to his room, but he couldn't help the tighting in his throat .  Even so a fall on the concrete would not be good . There was watering equipment that if she fell on could easily const.i.tute a cold or pneumonia if she could not get up right away or signal to someone that she needed help .  With all the activity around the building it could easily be an hour before someone could check on her . She could be down for hours without anyone noticing . He knew both of them loathed to have doctors called again .

Darkly, he realized that he was forming a bit of an attachment to his unfortunate wife .  It was unwise to dwell on such thoughts . Ellie Chen had several years of professional auto racing under her belt and had been in her fair share of accidents .  To think that she would die in a little balcony where he was sure nurses were around was silly .
