My Powerful CEO Husband

Chapter 181

Ch. 181 / 753 Jan 28, 2026

Eva might have said it in such a casual way, but Lita was scared silly at that time.

It seemed that his aunt really hadn't been here for more than a month. The key issue was that if he was really pregnant, then who was the child? It definitely wasn't his husband Ethan! It was... it was that devil Alex!

Lita was scared out of her wits. If she really was pregnant with Alex's child, would she, Lita, still want to live?

But at that time, Lita was rational. Her only thought was to not let Eva know that she was pregnant. Even if she wasn't really pregnant, she couldn't let Eva think that she was pregnant!

"I just ate catfish, didn't I?" Lita went along with her plan. She pressed her neck with her hand and said to Eva in a "painful" manner, "I'm f*cking pregnant! The fishbone stuck in my throat! Take out a bottle of water and let me rinse my mouth."

When Eva heard that the fishbone had been stuck in Lita's throat, he also panicked. He quickly took some mineral water from his dormitory, opened the bottle cap, and handed it to her. "Lita, did you spit out the fishbone? Look at the fishbone you just ate. It's like a hungry ghost is reborn."

Eva complained about lita as she patted Lita's back considerately to reduce the discomfort of Lita.

Thank God! Eva actually believed in it! Snow heaved a sigh of relief from the bottom of her heart.

If Eva knew that he was really pregnant, then the whole University would know it. This was a scandal contrary to morality that would spread to the society. Then how could Ethan and her brother's face be put down? Especially Ethan...

"I don't know... but I still feel a little uncomfortable in my throat." Since she had done it, then she would have to put on a full show. Lita did not want to deceive Eva, but the terrible consequences of this matter were simply too severe. Lita was somewhat unable to bear it.

"Then, do we need to go to the hospital to have a look?" Yen did not know what to do.

"No, there's no need. I'll be fine in a while." Lita quickly refused.

"Lita, we'd better go to the infirmary to have a look. I heard the news last time that a middle-aged man was stuck in the throat with a fishbone. He thought nothing serious happened and didn't go to the hospital that night. Later, he turned into a pustule and almost died." Eva was not frightening people. It was true.

"..." Lita was stunned. "No, it's not that serious, is it?"

"Yes! Lita, I'll go to the infirmary with you." Eva insisted on pulling Lita to the infirmary.

"Well, I've played too big this time! It seems that this is the punishment for me to lie to deceive others."

Lita drank a big mouthful of mineral water and hurriedly said, "I'm fine. My throat doesn't hurt anymore. It should have been spit out."

"Are you really okay? Lita, don't force yourself." Eva was still a little worried.

"That's just an accident! Think about it. There are more than one billion working people, and almost one third of them would eat fish every day. Few people would be sent to the hospital because of the fishbone! Eva, don't make a fuss. I'm really fine!"

Lita, of course, would not go to the infirmary with Eva. With the school's elite eyes, they would be able to tell if she was really pregnant with just one glance. If that was the case, everyone in the world would find out!

The disturbance was resolved by Lita's cleverness.

However, Lita's mind had been troubled by a thought, "I need to confirm if I'm really pregnant!"

It seemed that he hadn't had his period for nearly fifty days. This physiological sign was undoubtedly one of the important evidence of pregnancy.

"After I got together with that man, I had an emergency contraceptive! How could I have a baby? Did the contraceptive fail? Or did the contraceptive fail? Or did the effect fail?"

Out of the blue, Lita thought, who had been replaced by Alice! Heavens, could it be that Alice had tampered with her own medicine?

However, these weren't the most crucial things!

Now the more important thing was: He must confirm whether he really had a baby or not!

The vendors downstairs had to buy the pregnancy test sticks and so on. But Eva stuck to him and Lita couldn't get rid of him. What's more, the purpose of buying those things in the university was too big. Even if she didn't have any baby, she would be praised as gold by the public.

What Lita needed to do now was to get rid of Eva and run out of the school alone to buy it.

"Eva, I'm going to the hospital this afternoon to see Ethan, so I won't go practice salsa with you."

"I don't want to practice today either! How about go to the hospital with you to see Ethan?"

.." He couldn't get rid of her. Lita continued to say, "No, I can't. Ethan has always been very self-abased. He doesn't want to see outsiders, especially such a beautiful woman like you. He will feel even more self-abased when he sees you."

"It doesn't matter. I won't go in and see him.

I'll wait for you at the door of the ward."

Eva thought, "It doesn't matter if I can't see Ethan, and it's good to see Alex.

Presumably, Alex must be by his brother's side."

Looking at Eva's anthomaniac look, Lita suddenly asked, "You don't want to go and see Alex, do you?"

"No, no." Yen did not know what was going on, so he became a little nervous.

"I think you've got one! The words 'I'm Flower Addict' are clearly engraved on your face." Lita provoked Eva.

"Alright, alright, alright. I'm not going, alright? Even though Alex knows that you're the one he cares about, he still insists on bringing me into the muddy water. I'm just a donkey, how can Alex be his cup of tea? Lita, are you deliberately teasing me?" Eva started speaking in a somewhat impolite manner.

Lita knew that Eva would not really be angry with her, but in order to leave alone, Lita could only bear the pain and cheat Eva once. At worst, she could go back home at night and ask for forgiveness from Eva.

The only thing Lita wanted to do now was to test if she was really pregnant!

In addition to Selmy Family's driver, Lita usually took a bus to go out. But this time, she took a luxurious taxi.

She bought three different types of pregnancy test sticks from the pharmacy in the east of the city and tested papers in advance. Then she went to the bathroom of the coffee shop in the east of the city to verify the food. It was both safe and quiet.

With a complicated mood, Lita waited for the result quietly. Three minutes later, whether it was the pregnancy test stick or the early test paper, all of them showed two red bar without exception.

A more direct result was that she, Lita, was really pregnant!

Lita was almost dumbfounded. She suddenly fell down and sat on the floor of the bathroom.

"Oh my god, am I pregnant with Alex child?"

"Absolutely, he is Alex's child, not my husband Ethan!"

Lita felt that she really couldn't live any longer! Not only did she not follow the rules of women, but she also didn't know how to indulge herself and lower herself. Just because Alex was Ethan's younger brother, she shouldn't be carrying a child with Alex!
