Accidentally Contracted To The Billionaire CEO Chapter 029
“Three hours already?” I mutter, glancing at my watch before berating myself with a mental eye roll. 'Chill out Brielle. Not every little thing is a conspiracy. Quit being so paranoid.' I try to convince myself that Eva is just messing with my head. Yeah, she is manipulative, but that doesn't mean she's going to pull something crazy in the next few hours I turn my attention the flurry of handshakes, polite smiles, and forced small talk, but the sense of unease refuses to abate, and I'm glancing over my shoulder, trying to catch a glimpse of Eva amidst the crowd. Her threats linger in my mind, 'Just stop being paranoid, Brielle!' I reprimand myself, trying to shake off the mounting dread. 'Get it together, or tell Andrei what a demon Eva is and that's setting you on edge.' With guests filtering out of the hall, I scan the room for any trace of Eva, but she remains absent. Andrei and I take pictures with associates, his grin shining through behind that mask. He's so obviously
Accidentally Contracted To The Billionaire CEO Chapter 030
The car's headlights are still on, glaring right at us. Andrei, who's supposed to be confined to a wheelchair, turns to face the headlights with a look that could kill. I turn my head to see who is behind the wheel, and the answer is all too clear: it's Eva. She's gripping the steering wheel tight, her eyes wide with shock. Andrei rises to his feet, a single-minded determination in his eyes as he storms towards the car. With one swift motion, he yanks open the driver's side door, revealing a petrified Eva behind the wheel. She's frozen in fear, her eyes darting between Andrei's furious glare and the two perfectly formed limbs supporting his towering frame. I shift my weight, propping myself up on my elbows, my own disbelief mirrored in the shock on Eva's face. It's impossible, yet undeniable—the man we thought was confined to a wheelchair is standing before us, whole, broken. Eva finally steps out of the car, her movements stiff and awkward, her eyes never leaving Andrei'
Accidentally Contracted To The Billionaire CEO Chapter 031
Eva just keeps on butting in, trying to act all concerned and meddling like she doesn't have anything to do with the mess we're in. “It's good to see you've made such a miraculous recovery, Andrei.” “I don't wanna talk to you right now, Eva. Not after what you pulled back there…" Andrei snaps. “Everything that happened was an accident. I never intended for it…" She begins, trying to justify her reckless driving, but Andrei isn't having it. He briskly ushers me into the front seat of his car, shutting the door firmly behind me. Through the side mirror, I can still see them, their mouths moving in a frenzied back-and-forth. Eva is clearly trying to explain herself, but Andrei looks like he's not buying a word of it. It's a relentless back-and-forth. Andrei is in such a hurry to get away that you'd think the ground beneath him was on fire. Eva tries to keep up, matching his pace as they argue, she won't let go, determined to get her point across even as Andrei continues
Accidentally Contracted To The Billionaire CEO Chapter 032
Brielle's POV It takes a moment for me to work up the nerve, but eventually, I find the words. “How did the miracle happen?” “It wasn't a miracle. I worked for it… I put in the time, the effort, the pain, I pushed my body beyond what it thought it could do, and I walked again…" My eyes wander, drawn to the source of my confusion and doubt. They land on Andrei's legs, and I think to myself, 'How the hell did he manage to do all that PT without me knowing,' “Don't gawk like that. It's distracting.” Andrei snaps. He keeps his eyes trained on the road, the muscles in his jaw clenched as if he's biting back a harsher response. I get the message loud and clear, and I quickly shift my gaze away. I take a deep breath, the air in the car suddenly feeling stifling as I struggle to find the right words. “It's… um, it's really amazing, Mr. Carter… It's hard to believe that you were confined to a wheelchair just a few months ago, and now… now you're walking.” “Thought I clarified it, M
Accidentally Contracted To The Billionaire CEO Chapter 033
Brielle's POV It's Andrei's turn to laugh, and he's just daring me to come at him. “I cheated on you? Really? You don't believe a thing I say, do you? What's the real issue here, Brielle?” “You hurt my feelings, Andrei Carter. By impregnating your ex-girlfriend, you've shown that you don't respect me or our union, so let's put an end to this." "Thick as a brick, stubborn as a mule... those traits really suit you, Ms. Monroe. I've tried to get through to you, to explain myself, but you're as deaf as a stone to reason. You'd rather cling to your misconceptions than actually try to understand." “Understand what, exactly?” I retort, my voice rising with frustration. “You're telling me that I'm supposed to believe you didn't sleep with your ex when she's claiming you did? Am I supposed to accept that this baby just appeared out of thin air? Like some divine intervention or something_" “I never slept with Eva,” Andrei grits out, his jaw tightening with each word, "Not once, not ev
Accidentally Contracted To The Billionaire CEO Chapter 034
Brielle's POV Good lord, I think I may have gotten myself into a mess with Andrei Carter. Gone is the sweet, injured guy in the wheelchair, and in his place is a man who's making my heart race and my knees shake. He's got charm and strength that's making me second-guess myself. I'm starting to think that I bit off more than I can chew with this him. I catch his gaze and my heart skips a beat. The intensity of his stare sending a thrill through me. His hair is tousled up, a stark contrast to the polished CEO look he usually sports. He's not playing around, that much is clear. “Andrei, I have got to hand it to you” I say, trying to keep my cool even though my heart's racing a mile a minute. “You've done a complete 180 in the past day, and, I'm totally lost trying to figure out who you even are anymore. It's like you're a whole different person.” “Brielle, This is nothing but a bit of risqué conversation between two consenting adults.” He smiles, his fingers gesturing leisurely
Accidentally Contracted To The Billionaire CEO Chapter 035
Brielle's POV “I'm making good on that deal of hours. You said let's wait until Mr. Carter can stand again, and here I am, standing on my own two feet. And you, my dear, are losing yours.” He tuts, shaking his head as his hands rest on his waist. He's all, “Aw, too bad for you,” with that pitying look in his eye. “Andrei, That was nothing but a playful joke, and I certainly did not anticipate that you would take my words so literally. I had no intention of being 'eaten alive,' as you so colorfully put it.” “I promise, Ms. Monroe. My intentions are purely pleasurable.” Pleasurable? I freeze, my mind racing as I try to decipher his meaning. What the hell does he mean by 'eating me'? I think to myself. 'Is he talking about, like, performing_' I briskly shake the thought off. “Out with it, Andrei,” I snap, “No more playing games. Talk straight already.” “No pretenses, Ms. Monroe – I'm a diagnosed psychopath. I… I have a complete obsession with sinking my teeth into the fle

“What have I done?” I ask, my mind racing to recall any wrongdoing on my part. But nothing comes to mind, and I find myself at a loss to explain his reaction. “You gave Jeremy half of the newly acquired shares in our latest deal? What the hell possessed you to do that?” “Andrei, I'm at a loss for words. I have no idea how this could have happened, and I am just as shocked as you are, hearing this.” Andrei restless. He seems mad. Really mad. I try to reason with him, “I swear I don't have a clue how that happened.” “I Can't make sense of this, either. I mean, I entrusted you with this responsibility, and now you're telling me you don't know how this happened? You've been managing this project for a while now.” “You think I'd lie to you? No way.” “But it certainly it defies all logic and reason that you could be so oblivious to something like this happening under your watch. I mean, Jesus Christ, Brielle. Get your shit together.” Andrei's not buying a word of what I'm sayin

Brielle's POV.The muscles in his jaw flex as he grinds his teeth, his deep brown eyes flashing with anger. Yet, in their depths, a spark of vulnerability flickers, hinting at a pain that goes beyond mere fury.“You're really going to cut and run? Just wake up one morning and decide you're done? No discussion, no compromise. Just… gone. You always do this, Brielle, don't you? You do whatever you want, whenever you want, and to hell with everyone else.”I shake my head firmly, my voice trembling with conviction. “That's not true, Andrei. I'm just doing what needs to be done.”“What needs to be done? Yeah. Leaving me, walking out on our agreement, that's what needs to be done_”He runs his fingers through his hair, pacing back and forth as he struggles to contain his emotions. “How… why would you even consider leaving me like this? I don't understand. Have I wronged you in some way?”My heart shatters further, the words barely a whisper, “You haven't wronged me, Andrei. Not really. Exce

Brielle's POV Ivy's gaze pierces mine, and I feel my cheeks flush. “You, of all people, handling company finances? You can't even manage your own expenses.” I cringe inwardly. Why do I always bring my emotional luggage – and a side of financial chaos – to her perfectly organized life? “Marketing, Brielle. That's your expertise. Not accounting. What possessed you to take on that role?” I squirm under her scrutiny, shame washing over me. Andrei's offer had seemed like a vote of confidence, a sign that he trusted me. But now, I realize my ignorance. “Andrei suggested it,” I admit. Ivy's expression turns stern. “And you didn't question it? Didn't think twice about taking on a responsibility that's so far out of your league?” I shake my head, feeling a mix of embarrassment and defensiveness. “You have to tell Andrei or if things go south, it's gonna be on you. Or have you told him?” I wince, the weight of responsibility crushing me. Ivy's right, I have to tell Andrei. But how do

Brielle's POV I glance towards the entrance, and my heart skips a beat as Andrei stands there, his presence a welcome relief. Finally, he's home. But my attention quickly shifts to the unsettling scene unfolding before me. Helen's behavior is erratic, and I'm lost. She's been ranting about bad omens and curses, things that need to be “cleansed.” I exchange a bewildered glance with Andrei, his expression mirroring my confusion. I thought I knew Helen, but this superstitious side of her is unfamiliar. And who is this elderly man she's brought along? His presence only adds to the chaos. Andrei's face darkens, his eyes narrowing as he takes in the scene. He looks like he's about to explode. “Oh, Andrei, thank goodness you're here! We need your help to chase away the evil spirits…" Helen motions for him to follow. He keeps his eyes trained on me, gritting his teeth… Well, don't stare at me like that... “The Oracle's here,” she announces. “He traveled 120 miles just to get here.

Andrei's POV I stand by the window of my office, gazing out at the city skyline. The bustling streets below seem to stretch on forever. My thoughts are lost in the urban landscape when Sarah's soft voice breaks the silence. “Sir, package just arrived.” I turn, and there's Sarah with this gorgeous bunch of roses. Thick, velvety petals in deep red and pink Sarah's cheeks flush as she places the flowers on my desk. “They're pretty. Meant for your wife, I presume? Who else deserves these three dozen beauties?” A smirk plays on my lips, my gaze drifting to the bouquet, “You think Brielle would love this?” “I think she'll love them. They're beautiful.” However, Someone else is getting lucky today, I hand Sarah the roses. “Stick these in the car, would you? I'm done for the day.'” *** I arrive at the hospital around 3 pm, just before visiting hours end. Standing in Jamie's doorway, I take in the serene scene. She sits upright, clutching a teddy bear to her chest, eyes fixed on the

Andrei's POV. Whoever shot at wife better start praying to whatever god they believe in, 'cause they're gonna need all the divine intervention they can get once I get my hands on them. The estate's on high alert. I've reinforced the perimeter, stationed extra men around and sealed off all exits. Brielle's staying put, no arguments. I know she can be stubborn, but I won't budge. She'll remain safe at home while my team and I tackle this Ivy situation, no matter how deadly it gets.However, the latest update has my gut twisting. The location's been rigged with explosives. It's absolute chaos unlike anything I've ever witnessed. Events unfold at breakneck speed, but nothing could've prepared me for this. Paul and the explosives expert assured me they'd defuse the bomb, but now I'm gripped by doubt, “How long until extraction?” I ask, eyes fixed on the road ahead. Paul's voice crackles through the earpiece, “Three minutes, tops. We're still working on disabling the security feeds.

THIRD PERSON "You're abandoning ship, Liam? Coward!" Eva's tailing Liam, her feet pounding the ground. He whirls around, his face set in a determined grimace. “This place is a death trap. Every minute we waste, we're one step closer to prison – or worse. You can stay here and rot if you want, but I'm not sticking around to take the fall for all this." “Our plan, our company — we've just started building this thing from scratch! What's going to happen to it all? It's all on the line_” “Fuck it! If you're gonna stay behind and babysit everything, then go for it! You do that shit! I'm ghosting,” Liam walks out, leaving Eva seething. She shoots him a parting glare, accompanied by a scathing curse. But she's not done yet. She's hot on his heels, her feet moving swiftly. “You think you can just bail on me? Think again, Liam.” He storms out of the dilapidated building, slamming the creaky door behind him. The place is a total dump. The surrounding woods are super eerie, wi

Ivy's POV. After hanging up with Andrei, I take a look around and shudder at the creepy atmosphere. The peeling paint, dusty furniture, and flickering lights make this place feel like a haunted house. But my gaze keeps drifting back to the door. It's a behemoth – thick, metal-reinforced, and intimidating. More like a gate than a door, really. I recall trying to secure it earlier… struggling to lift that heavy metal bar and slide the bolt into place. . I'm still catching my breath from that crazy escape. Liam and Eva were too busy arguing to notice me making a run for it. I took off like a shot, pounding up the stairs two at a time. That was either genius or madness. Eva went ballistic, firing three shots that narrowly missed. The woman's got a serious screw loose – Locking myself in here, I've temporarily dodged the bullet, but the clock's ticking. How soon can Andrei rescue me from this hellhole? Each passing moment feels like an eternity. Liam and Eva's fury intensifies, th

Brielle's POV Andrei's intense stare pins me. “You seem uneasy, Brielle What's wrong?” My eyes dart away, taking in the breathtaking view. The rolling hills, lit up by the moon, are like a velvet painting come to life, and the Carter estate glows like a lantern against the dark backdrop. Beautiful scenery, but I'm getting bad juju. Something's off, and it's freaking me out. Andrei's gaze snaps back to mine, his eyes narrowing. “Don't conceal your fears, let me know if something's amiss.” His hand slips behind the hem of his coat, his fingers vanishing from view as though he were tucking something away within its folds. It’s a discreet movement, almost imperceptible, but there’s an undeniable weight to it. I shrug, eyes still scanning the surroundings. “Nothing, Andrei. Just paranoia.” His eyes, dark and intense, bore into mine, questioning my sincerity. I nod, trying to convince myself more than him. “Yeah, I'm good.” “Sure?” “Honestly, it's just a weird feeling I have,” I
