I Used To Cling To Him At Night, Now I Turn My Back Chapter 06

Might as well enjoy it while I still could. Not like I’d get another chance after this.

So I reached out, bold and shameless, my hands roaming over him with no finesse whatsoever.

Callan let out a low grunt. He turned his face away

The alcohol had already left a faint flush across his cheeks.

Now the color spread easily down his neck.

His phone on the nightstand buzzed over and over

The caller’s picture showed a long–haired woman holding a cat.

I knew who it was. The female lead.

“Callan. Your phone.”

The moment he realized I’d seen it, his expression darkened.

“We’re in the middle of this, and you’re telling me to check on another woman?”

I didn’t want him to. But he was pressing down on me so hard.

I was afraid for the baby.

I braced myself with both hands, trying to push him off.

“Please… get off me…”

My voice cracked.

Something seemed to click for him. Alarm flickered across his face, and he immediately got off

me.
“I’m sorry.”

He picked up his phone.

“In a few days, I want you to meet someone.”

“You’ve probably met her before.”

My stomach lurched.

I clapped a hand over my mouth. I couldn’t hold it back.

The morning sickness hit without warning.

My mind a blur, I shoved Callan toward the door.

No matter how many times he asked what was wrong, I gave him the same answer.

“It’s just a stomach bug.”

The comments instantly flooded the screen.

Il get it now. Typical schemer. She’s hiding the pregnancy so she can start her plan to keep the baby.l

[Well, at least she’s self–aware. She knows she can’t function without someone to cling to, s she’s popping out a kid to fill the void. Narcissist much?]

Being called a narcissist made me wince.

Morning sickness wasn’t something I could control.

If I kept living under the same roof as Callan, he’d find out sooner or later.

If the plot was set in stone… then sooner or later, I’d have to leave.

Maybe this was how I gave them their happy ending.
