CEO He is Paranoid Chapter 123: Dependence on Fate
A hint of surprise flashed in Grandfather's eyes. He didn't expect Vivienne to say such words in front of him."What if it's not suitable?" Grandfather asked."If it's not suitable, even if the two are together, they will only hurt each other," Vivienne replied without avoiding Grandfather's gaze, speaking earnestly.Grandfather suddenly smiled, but Vivienne couldn't tell if it was a smile of joy or anger."You, little girl, are much braver than before. I still remember when I first saw you, you couldn't even speak in front of me," Grandfather said.Vivienne felt a bit embarrassed.Grandfather waved his hand. "You can go now. Let Asher come in.""Alright," Vivienne left the study, unaware that her words just now had made Grandfather, who had not held a favorable opinion of her, suddenly appreciate her.As soon as Vivienne left the study, she saw Asher standing at the door, clearly waiting for her."What did Grandfather say?" Asher asked.Vivienne pondered for a moment and replied, "He

"Dependence on Fate" refers to the predetermined individuals. That was Asher's explanation. Asher said that the people of the Montgo family would all submit to the feet of Dependence on Fate, and since he was also a member of the Montgo family, Vivienne couldn't help but blurt out, "Do you also have Dependence on Fate?"Asher lowered his head, and under the moonlight, his originally pitch-black yet hollow eyes became radiant. "If I have one, then my Dependence on Fate must be Vivi," he answered.That's how he responded to her.That evening, Vivienne returned to her dormitory. Julian was still awake, browsing the forum of her favorite celebrity. When he saw her friend return, he smiled and asked, "How was it at his place? I thought you would come back late today. Usually, when you go out on a date with Asher, you don't come back until after ten."But this time, it was only 9:30 PM. If it wasn't for suddenly seeing Charles in that state, Vivienne felt that she probably wouldn't have ret

After saying those words, Ezra lowered his gaze, seemingly lost in thought."I'll go out and revise the drafts now. Once I'm done, I'll send them to your email, just like last time," Vivienne said as she stood up and walked towards the conference room's door."You're graduating soon, right?" Ezra's voice suddenly sounded behind her."Huh?" She paused and turned around, surprised."Do you remember what you said to me back then? You said that on the day of your graduation, you wanted me to attend your graduation ceremony."Three years ago, she had just been admitted to graduate school, and he was a friend she had recently met, someone she could share her joy with."Ezra, I don't know if we'll still be friends by the time I graduate," she said with some nostalgia. After all, for her, the CEO of Four Seas Corporation was a distant figure."Why wouldn't we be?" he smiled and asked in return.She tilted her head slightly and suddenly smiled. "Alright, when I graduate, you'll come to my grad
CEO He is Paranoid Chapter 126: I'll Kill You
Just when everyone thought Ezra Donovan would answer with praises about how great the university is, his response took everyone by surprise. He said, "Because I have a friend who is graduating today, and I want to contribute something to the university she attended."Instantly, everyone was stunned, followed by a wave of whispers. Everyone was curious about the kind of person Ezra Donovan referred to as his "friend." Many expressed envy and remarked that their lives wouldn't have been in vain if they had a friend like Ezra Donovan.The principal, standing next to Ezra Donovan, also wore a look of astonishment. Obviously, it was his first time hearing about this unexpected turn of events. It turned out that this unexpected stroke of luck was all because of a graduating student."I wonder which one of you is Mr. Donovan's friend and what's her name? Let's invite her to the stage to say a few words!" the principal said after regaining his composure.The audience responded with applause a

Vivienne's palms grew even colder, feeling her heart almost jump out of her throat. She couldn't imagine how this situation in front of her would end.Suddenly, there was another commotion at the entrance of the auditorium, with many people shouting, "It's Scarlett!" "Scarlett is here too!" "This is so exciting! This year's graduation ceremony is truly worth attending!" "This will definitely be the most unforgettable graduation ceremony I've ever witnessed!"If Vivienne's heart was pounding like a heart patient just a moment ago, now she felt like she was becoming completely numb.Scarlett was naturally not alone. Accompanied by several bodyguards, she approached Ezra and Asher."Scarlett, why did you come? Is it because of Asher Montgo and Ezra Donovan?" Some students spontaneously took on the role of reporters and asked.Scarlett smiled coquettishly, "This is also my alma mater. I came to see my alma mater. I don't think I need a reason, right? If I had pursued a postgraduate degree

"Again?" Vivienne was puzzled by the word, and a possibility suddenly came to her mind. She blurted out, "Do you know that I used to date Ezra Donovan?"After she said those words, his body suddenly stiffened, his breathing became slightly labored, and he loosened his arms that were wrapped around her.Vivienne finally felt her breath return, took a deep breath, and looked at Asher. But his face, at this moment, was pale to the point of transparency. "What's wrong? Are you okay?" she asked, cupping his face in her hands. She gasped when she felt the coldness in her palms."Why is your face so cold?" Vivienne asked, concerned. But Asher remained silent, his lips tightly pursed.Vivienne reached out and held Asher's hand. His hand was equally cold. It was already June, but his body felt chillingly cold.Is he sick? Vivienne wondered, and then she suggested, "Do you have a family doctor? Should I call your family doctor to check on you, or... should we go to the hospital now?"He still d

He obediently lay down on the bed, curling up into a shrimp-like position. Vivienne was all too familiar with Asher's sleeping posture. People who slept like this usually lacked a sense of security.Even in a prestigious household like the Montgo family, with power, status, and wealth, could it still not bring him a sense of security? Then what else could make him feel safe? As Vivienne tucked Asher in with a thin blanket, she pondered."Go to sleep," she urged."Mhm," he responded, slowly closing his eyes.She ran her fingers through his hair before getting up and quietly walking out of the bedroom.At the moment the door closed, his dark eyes suddenly opened wide. Asher stared fixedly at the closed door and murmured softly to himself, "Vivi... Remember what you said today, don't forget."When Vivienne returned to the bedroom with lunch prepared, she found Asher still asleep, and he seemed to be sleeping soundly. She suddenly noticed a faint bruise under his eyelids.Had he not been

At that time, Vivienne felt that Ezra was a very easygoing person, kind and gentle. She had no idea that he was the CEO of Four Seas Corporation; she thought he was just an ordinary office worker, perhaps a manager of some sort, with a decent salary.Moreover, Ezra's car looked quite nice. Vivienne didn't have much knowledge about cars at the time, so she had no idea that Ezra Donovan's car cost several million and was just one of his many cars.As Ezra was settling the bill, Vivienne noticed the manager scolding a young waitress who was sobbing and pleading not to be fired.Vivienne stood still, staring at the waitress."What's wrong?" Ezra walked up to her, lowering his head to ask."That girl is a student from our school," Vivienne pointed to the weeping waitress.Ezra raised an eyebrow, "Is she your friend?""No, just a fellow student from the school. I think she's from the performing arts department. We've seen each other a few times because we live in the same dormitory building

Compared to the newborn baby, Nelson was more concerned about Viola. After she was brought back to her hospital room, he never left her side. After the baby was cleaned up, it was brought to the bedside, lying next to Viola.The little baby closed its eyes. Was this his and Viola's child? A rush of tenderness surged in Nelson's heart. Would the child resemble him or Viola? If possible, he hoped the child would resemble Viola more.Just as he was thinking about this, the baby suddenly moved, half-opening its eyes and then bursting into wailing cries. Viola, who had been sleeping, woke up because of the baby's crying."Bring the baby to me; she must be hungry, and I want to breastfeed her," Viola said.Only then did Nelson realize that she had woken up.

In that moment of holding the soft little body, he felt an indescribable sensation.Viola couldn't sit up at the moment, so she needed to lie down to breastfeed the baby. Nelson

The day before Viola's due date, she was admitted to the hospital and underwent various routine checks. On the following day, Viola remained calm and even flipped through magazines before entering the operating room.In contrast, Nelson was visibly more anxious and approached the doctors several times, asking about various possible emergency situations during childbirth, even though they had already explained them to him many times.When Viola was wheeled into the operating room, Nelson's whole body tensed up. He stood outside the room, staring at the closed door as if he were a statue.Anyone could see how nervous he was, and as time passed, Nelson's complexion grew paler.Viola was considered an older mother, and despite the best doctors that the Montgo family had arranged and even with a caesarean section, there were still risks.Sebastian noticed Nelson's anxious state and gently patted his shoulder. "Don't worry, Viola and the baby will be fine."But Nelson remained motionless, h

"I..." Viola hadn't finished her sentence when Nelson's lips pressed against hers, stopping the words that were about to come out. His tongue swiftly entered her mouth, stirring her saliva, and he took her tongue into his mouth, biting it as if venting all his frustrations.Though her tongue wasn't bleeding, it hurt terribly, and her lips also throbbed with pain from the pressure of his lips. She tried to push him away, but his hands easily restrained her wrists."Mmm... Hmm..." Viola initially struggled, but she didn't dare to move too much, afraid of hurting the child in her belly. Giving up on resisting, she allowed Nelson to kiss her.He kissed her with his eyes closed, his long, thick eyelashes casting a heavy shadow on his eyelids. Meanwhile, she kept her eyes open, staring at his face that was now closer than ever before.He deepened the kiss, seeming to release pent-up emotions, indulging and losing himself in the sensation.When he finally ended the kiss, Viola knew she must

When Viola returned to the Montgo mansion, Sebastian looked at her with a look of disbelief as she stood there with a big belly. Before leaving, Viola had told her family that she was sent to work in another city by the hospital, and her family didn't suspect anything. They just advised her to take care of herself while outside."How many months pregnant are you?" Sebastian's voice sounded."Almost 8 months," Viola replied honestly."How is your health? You're a doctor yourself, so you should know the risks of having a child at this age," Sebastian worriedly asked. After the shock, his main concern now was his sister's well-being."I know, but there shouldn't be any major problems if it's a cesarean section," Viola said. For women like her who have never given birth before, a cesarean section would be more suitable than a natural birth."Why didn't you stay at home?" Sebastian asked."Because I wanted to clear my mind and quietly find a place to give birth," without getting entangled

Since the day they parted at the hospital, Nelson withdrew the surveillance around her, and he didn't want to know anything about her. Later, when he tried to find Viola, he couldn't locate her no matter how hard he tried. Until one day, Mort brought news about her. It turned out that Viola had gone to a remote village the next day and had been living there for several months.The car sped along the road. Viola, Viola! Nelson kept repeating her name in his heart. She was so close, only two hours away... no, an hour and a half, and he could see her!He had so many words he wanted to say to her. He wanted to tell her not to try to avoid him, that he could endure her disgust, her indifference, and even her love for her Dependence on Fate. But... he couldn't endure not seeing her!Ten years ago, when she disappeared from his world, even though he aged overnight, he could wait for her to come back. But now, after she vanished, he had lost even the patience to wait.He couldn't endure it li
CEO He is Paranoid Chapter 323: All Hopes Have Been Extinguished
Nelson suddenly laughed, his laughter was cold, each laugh feeling like a chilling cold wind blowing across his cheeks.After a moment, his laughter ceased, and he stared straight at her, his voice icy to the extreme, "No regrets! I, Nelson, believe that I can do anything for you, but there's one thing I can't do. Viola, it's not up to you to decide when it's over! It may be over for you, but for me, it's not over yet!""What do you want to do?" His gaze and tone made her feel uneasy."Viola, unless you die, I'll follow you to the end, no matter what!" He said each word deliberately, like a bolt of thunder striking her mind, shaking her heart.She was stunned, and her heart pounded wildly. Did she make a mistake? Did she make a mistake? "To the end"... he actually said such words. Perhaps she had pushed him to the brink for him to say such ruthless words. Or should she say that she had extinguished all of his hopes?Before she could speak, Nelson had already turned around and left the

In the obstetrics and gynecology operating room, he ran as if he had gone mad, his handsome face showing anxiety, unease, and panic.If those who knew Nelson were to see him in this state, they would undoubtedly be shocked. The composed and calm man would reveal such an expression!The light was on at the entrance of the operating room, but among the crowd waiting outside, he didn't see that familiar figure.Is she inside the operating room? His heart clenched tightly, feeling the intensifying unease.Nelson rushed toward the operating room, and the nurse at the door tried to stop him, "Sir, there's a surgery in progress, you can't just go in like this!""Get out of my way!" He coldly retorted, pushing the nurse aside. The fierce aura emanating from him made the nurse dumbfounded. Though he was undeniably handsome, he looked more like a ferocious demon at that moment.Nelson charged toward the operating room again, and this time, the other nurses and attendants reacted.

And now, she had tested with more than one kit, and they all showed that she was pregnant.Viola was usually calm and composed, even when dealing with family matters that made her anxious and worried, she could still make quick judgments.
