Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret Calm Before The Storm
Elona sat by Alaric’s side, the rhythmic beeping of the machines the only sound in the sterile, cold room. Her fingers brushed against his hand, feeling the faint warmth that remained despite his unmoving state. It was strange, how someone could lie so still and yet seem so present, like a part of her soul was tethered to him.She leaned forward, her voice barely above a whisper. “I know you can hear me, Alaric,” she said softly. “I know you think that I’ve hurt you. I know you believe that I’ve made mistakes... but so have you.” Her chest tightened as she forced back the tears threatening to spill over. “I wanted to give up on you. I tried to move on. I thought maybe... just maybe, I could have a life without you in it. But every day... every moment, you’re still here.” Her voice faltered slightly, but she quickly composed herself.“I wanted to hate you. And for a time, I did,” she continued, her fingers tracing the lines of his hand, “But the truth is, I love you, Alaric. I’ve alwa

The days were long and filled with quiet intensity. The triplets’ laughter echoed through the villa, their innocent joy a stark contrast to the tense atmosphere that clung to the air. Elona had taken Master Fu’s suggestion to heart. She had started bringing the children to Alaric’s room, allowing them to play around him, occasionally touching his hand or speaking to him as though he were awake. She didn’t know if it was working, but something about the way Alaric’s vitals steadied when they were near gave her a small measure of hope.She had placed the children in their play area just outside the door, and as she wiped a cloth across Alaric’s forehead—gentle and tender, as though he could feel it. She couldn’t shake the feeling that something was changing. Her heart fluttered every time she looked at him, a mixture of love, regret, and longing. “You’re stubborn,” she murmured softly to his still form. “So, so stubborn.”Her voice wavered, but she steadied herself. The cold, indiffere

The next few days passed in a quiet rhythm. Elona found herself growing used to the subtle changes in Alaric’s condition. His vitals, though still fragile, were more stable. The room, once cold and sterile, now had a sense of life. The scent of herbs, remedies Elona had prepared herself, mingled with the soft sound of the triplets’ laughter drifting from outside.It was a delicate balance: her hopes rising with each small improvement, yet the weight of her past with Alaric, the hurt, the betrayal, never quite lifting. She would sit beside his bed, her hand on his, and talk to him for hours. She would speak of the triplets, of the life she had built without him, and of the quiet sacrifices she had made. There were moments when she would pause, her voice faltering, unsure if he could hear her. But each time, she returned, convinced that, somehow, he could feel the sincerity in her words.The triplets, as Master Fu had suggested, were the key. They were so young, so full of innocence, a

The days continued to blend into one another, each one bringing a flicker of hope, then the familiar pull of despair. Elona found herself locked in a delicate dance with her emotions. There were moments of strength, when the progress she saw in Alaric gave her courage to push forward, to believe in his recovery. And then there were the quieter moments, when the weight of the past seemed to close in on her, and the bitter sting of his betrayal resurfaced like an old wound that refused to heal.But despite it all, she continued to care for him. The triplets were her light, their laughter a balm to her weary soul. She knew that as long as she had them, she would survive. But Alaric, he was a different story.She could feel the bond between them growing stronger, in ways that terrified her. What am I doing? she thought, watching Alaric’s still face as she brushed his hair back, her fingers lingering just a moment longer than necessary. I should be angry with him. I should hate him. But I

Harley’s frustration simmered beneath her polished exterior as she stared at the messages on her phone, each one an update on Alaric’s condition. Senior Royale’s words echoed in her mind, forbidding her from visiting the villa. “The Chinese doctor does not need family interference with his treatment.” Harley could hardly contain her bitterness. Every day she was kept at arm’s length, watching from the shadows as Elona, the very woman she had once orchestrated to be cast aside, now stood at the center of Alaric’s recovery.But Harley was not a woman to accept defeat easily. The situation was getting out of hand, and her jealousy grew like a poison, infecting her every thought. Elona had the audacity to call herself Alaric’s savior, and the triplets, those children who were so unmistakably his, only made matters worse. They were his legacy, his flesh and blood. Harley couldn’t bear the thought of them growing up with the man who was meant to be hers.She had thought of many ways to reg

The villa was quiet in the dead of night, the usual hum of activity now replaced by an eerie stillness. Harley paced back and forth in her private study, the dim glow from the desk lamp casting long shadows across the room. Her hands were steady, her mind sharp, even as her heart pounded with anticipation. The information had arrived, confirming what she already suspected: Alaric was starting to show signs of waking up. It was time to act.Harley knew better than to trust anyone fully, especially when it came to the old Chinese doctor. Master Fu had been a thorn in her side for far too long, and while she wasn’t one to underestimate anyone, she couldn’t risk him standing in her way. The dark web had its uses, and Harley had called upon her connections. A few well-placed words and she had orchestrated a distraction that would buy her the time she needed.Master Fu had left the villa, having received urgent news about his closest friend being poisoned in his home country. He had rushed

The wind howled outside the cabin, a sharp, biting gust that rattled the windows, but inside, it was eerily quiet. Harley stood before the fireplace, her eyes fixed on the flickering flames, her mind racing with the satisfaction of a plan coming to fruition. But there was something else, something she couldn’t quite shake. A feeling of unease lingered in the back of her mind, like a shadow at the edge of her consciousness.She had thought she’d won. She had thought Elona was defeated, her children now in her grasp. But there was something she didn’t know. Something deeper than Elona’s innocent demeanor. The woman she had believed to be a simple, helpless victim was far more dangerous than Harley had ever imagined.Four years ago, Elona had been framed. Harley had carefully constructed a web of lies, manipulating Alaric’s emotions and fabricating evidence that turned him against Elona. It was a flawless plan, and it worked. Alaric believed the lies, and Elona had been left broken and a

Alaric's eyes fluttered open, the bright light from the ceiling blinding him for a moment. He blinked rapidly, trying to clear the haze that had clouded his mind for so long. Slowly, his senses returned. His body felt like it had been stretched, his muscles aching in places he didn’t know existed. But what struck him the most was the sound. The soft voices he had been hearing in his sleep.They were so familiar, almost like echoes of his own past. Sweet, innocent laughter. His chest tightened at the sound, the rhythm of the voices stirring something deep within him. It wasn’t just one voice, there were three. Three small voices, each filled with joy, each a perfect melody that sent waves of warmth through his body.He blinked again, his focus sharpening. His gaze flickered to the figure standing near his bed. Harley. Her face was beaming, her smile wide and proud, as if she had been waiting for this moment for ages."Alaric, you’re awake," Harley said, her voice a soothing melody that

Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret Epilogue: A Legacy Of Love And Genius
Five Years Later… The Royale Estate had never been more alive. Lush gardens stretched as far as the eye could see, the scent of blooming roses mingling with the crisp afternoon air. The laughter of children echoed across the grounds, filling the estate with warmth and joy. Elona stood on the grand balcony, watching the scene below unfold with a soft smile on her lips. She leaned against Alaric, his strong arm wrapped protectively around her waist. "Look at them," she murmured, pride evident in her voice. Down in the courtyard, the Terrific Trio, Arlyle, Artie, and Allie, were engrossed in an intense discussion, their expressions far too serious for eleven-year-olds. But then again, they weren’t just any eleven-year-olds. They were national geniuses, their intelligence unmatched by any child their age. Their names graced international forums, scientific journals, an
Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret Vows That Shook The Nation
The grand ballroom of the Royale Estate was transformed into a breathtaking vision of elegance. Cascading chandeliers bathed the space in golden light, while delicate floral arrangements lined the aisle, each petal whispering a tale of love, redemption, and new beginnings. Alaric Royale stood at the altar, dressed in a custom-tailored black tuxedo, his stance confident yet solemn. His heart pounded with anticipation as he awaited the arrival of the woman who had become his world, the woman he had almost lost but fought to reclaim. The billboards across Country M broadcasted the event live, capturing every moment in stunning detail. The entire nation bore witness to the redemption of a man who had once taken love for granted but now vowed to cherish it with his entire being. When Elona finally appeared at the entrance, time seemed to stand still.Dressed in an exquisite white gown
Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret A Love Rekindled
Alaric Royale had always been a man who thrived under pressure. Business deals, billion-dollar investments, and ruthless negotiations had been his expertise for years. But now, he was navigating an entirely different battlefield, one that involved diaper changes, bedtime stories, and earning the love of the family he had once taken for granted. And he was determined not to fail. For him, this was the dawn of a new routine, and one he fully embraced with sincerity. The sun had barely risen when Elona stirred awake, expecting to hear the usual fussing of the twins. But instead, the room was quiet. Too quiet. She sat up, her heart thudding. Had she overslept? Where were the babies?Slipping on her robe, she made her way downstairs, only to pause at the sight before her. Alaric was in the living room, still in his sleepwear, holding one of the twins in his arms while feeding the othe
Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret Path To Redemption
Elona studied him, searching for any trace of deception, but all she saw was sincerity, painful, soul-deep sincerity. “I don’t know if I can ever fully forgive you,” she admitted quietly. “But… I want to try.” Alaric’s head snapped up, eyes widening slightly. “You do?” Elona sighed. “The truth is, despite everything, a part of me never stopped wanting you. And maybe that’s my own weakness. But I can’t ignore that you’re their father, that we’re still married, and that...” she hesitated, “...that I once loved you.” The admission hung in the air between them, fragile and uncertain. Alaric leaned forward slightly, his voice a gentle plea. “Then let me earn it. Let me show you that I can be the man you deserve. I don’t expect you to trust me overnight, but I’ll spend every day proving it to you.” Elona exhaled. “We’ll take it one step at a time.” A spark of hope ignited in Alaric’s g
Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret Alaric's Deepest Regret
“I missed both of your pregnancies. I wasn’t there when you needed me most. I let others dictate my life, let my pride get in the way.” His jaw clenched. “And because of that, I lost the woman who should have been my priority from the beginning.” Elona crossed her arms, her eyes filled with lingering pain. “You don’t just get to regret things now and expect everything to be okay. You should know that by now." “I know,” he admitted. “And I don’t expect forgiveness overnight. But I need you to know, Elona, that I regret it every single day. Every time I look at our children, I think about what I missed. I think about how you went through it all alone because I was too blind to see what truly mattered.” Elona bit her lip, fighting against the emotions rising inside her. It was rare to see Alaric this open, this vulnerable. But bitterness still lingered in her heart. “You always put business first, believed
Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret The Burden Of Regret
The battle was won. The threats to Elona were gone. But for Alaric Royale, the war was far from over. As the chaos of the past weeks settled, silence became his enemy. It was in that silence that the heavy burden of his failures pressed down on him. He had conquered enemies, crushed empires, and outmaneuvered some of the most ruthless minds in the world. Yet, when it came to the one thing that truly mattered, his family, he had failed spectacularly. Alaric sat alone in his office, a crystal glass of whiskey untouched on his desk. The city skyline stretched before him, bright and alive, yet he felt nothing but emptiness. His fingers hovered over his phone. He had Elona’s number memorized, yet every time he thought of calling her, he hesitated. What could he say? I’m sorry? I regret everything? Please come back to me? None of it felt enough. He hadn’t just missed a few anniversaries or forgotten a birthday.
Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret Silent Execution
After the banquet’s revelations had settled, Alaric, Elona, and Master Fu gathered in the Guild’s war room, a dimly lit chamber filled with ancient scrolls, maps, and strategic plans. The room was filled with the scent of aged parchment and burning incense, a signature of Master Fu’s personal quarters.Seated at the head of the table, Master Fu steepled his fingers, his piercing eyes scanning the duo before him. “We need to discuss Gwen Mason.”Elona exhaled sharply, her expression darkening at the mention of the former queen consort of Country S. “She got away too easily,” she muttered.Alaric leaned back in his chair, his face unreadable but his fingers tapping rhythmically against the armrest. “Even after the ICC took over, the Mason family pulled their strings, and now she walks free on ‘bail.’ It’s a mockery of justice.”Master Fu nodded gravely. “The ICC was never going to hold her accountable. The Mason family has deep connections, and the former king… well, let’s just say he w
Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret A Heart Laid Bare
Kian stood at the wide-open balcony of his guest bedroom at the Guild headquarters, his fingers curled tightly around the ornate railing. The cool night air did little to ease the storm raging inside him. He had spent his life running, from the truth, from himself, from the consequences of his choices. But tonight, he could no longer hide.Behind him, the grand doors creaked open, and light footsteps approached. Elona. He knew her presence before he even turned. “You wanted to see me?” she asked, her voice calm but distant.Kian inhaled deeply, steeling himself before facing her. She looked as poised as ever, her striking features illuminated by the moonlight, but there was something else, something he had put there. A wound, not of steel or poison, but of betrayal.“Elona…” he hesitated, his throat tightening. “There’s something I need to say. Something I should have said a long time ago.” She crossed her arms, waiting. “I’m listening.”His fingers clenched at his sides before he for
Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret A Banquet Of Revelations
The following evening, the banquet hall of the Guild of Shadows was alive with activity. The grand space had been transformed into an elegant but fortified venue. Guards were positioned at key points, watching for any sign of trouble. Elite members of the guild mingled with the esteemed guests, their presence a reminder that tonight was not just a celebration, it was a test. And Elona was at the center of it all. At the head table sat Master Fu, his keen eyes observing the room, knowing that tonight was not just about celebration, it was about revelation. Elona sat beside him, her face calm and composed, but a storm brewed within. The triplets were at a smaller table nearby, excitedly whispering to one another, while Kian sat to her other side, his expression unreadable.Then, Alaric walked in. Dressed in a sharp black suit, exuding dominance, his icy blue eyes swept the hall before landing on Elona. For a brief moment, time seemed to stand still between them. But before he could tak
