CEO Marriage Scam Chapter 147: Ensuring She Had No Regrets
After lunch, Aaron rested, and Elaine went to Sylvia's office to retrieve her phone. Although her number hadn't changed, all her contacts were gone, and she couldn't remember Uncle Yang's number either.When Elaine returned to the hospital room, Lionel had arrived. He was dressed in a red suit with matching dark red shoes. Hearing footsteps, he turned and greeted cheerfully, "Elaine, you're back! Come on in!"Elaine let out a cold laugh and completely ignored him as she walked into the room.Lionel appraised Elaine, making admiring sounds under his breath. He couldn't tell that Miss Smith was quite a formidable character, and she didn't look too bad either. She was certainly a cut above the women he had encountered before.Elaine looked at him with undisguised disgust, and Lionel didn't mind. He winked at her, thinking he was quite charming.Elaine simply turned away and looked towards Aaron, who was sitting by the bedside. She felt a pang of sympathy. Lionel had clearly come to mock

At the airport in the evening, there were two familiar figures among the crowd exiting the terminal. Leading the way was Lilian, with Sarah trailing behind.Both of them looked exhausted, their faces weary, and their steps shaky. Sarah, in particular, seemed even more drained, constantly yawning. "Auntie, wait up for me," she pleaded.Lilian, equally drained, barely had the energy to turn her head. With a feeble voice, she consented, "Sure." Her feet never stopped moving. They were utterly exhausted.Their journey back had been ridiculously tumultuous. They had initially booked an afternoon flight, which took off on time but had to return due to a minor technical issue. After a brief delay, they managed to catch an evening flight, but it was forced to make an emergency landing due to heavy rain. By the time they reached their destination, it was already late at night. The local hotels were fully booked due to a trade conference, and they had to shuttle between several places before fi

"What are you staring at? Did I say something wrong?" Lilian felt increasingly uneasy under Elaine's glare.Elaine didn't pay her any attention, her gaze fixed on a guilty-looking Sarah. Elaine let her eyes linger on Sarah, who avoided her gaze and nervously fiddled with her hair. Elaine couldn't help but smirk slightly. It seemed Sarah felt guilty. Elaine wanted to reassure herself that she didn't know anything. She had sent that text message impulsively, but she had no evidence.Elaine casually glanced at Sarah, and their eyes met briefly. Sarah quickly averted her gaze, realizing that Elaine was onto something. Elaine's lips curved into a wider smile as she lightly twirled a ring on her finger."Mom, do you know how Lionel became the CEO?" Elaine finally spoke.Lilian looked puzzled. She had no idea.Elaine turned to Sarah and continued, "Her mother sold all her shares to Lionel. She even convinced a few friends to do the same. With the majority of shares, Lionel became the CEO."S

Outside the hospital room, Elaine was on the phone. "Sylvia, can you do me a favor..."After ending the call, she reached out to push the door open but paused upon hearing Lilian's questioning voice from inside. "I just don't understand. Even if you don't like Sarah, what's so special about her?"Elaine hesitated, her hand hovering over the doorknob. She considered leaving but decided to stay for a moment. She then heard Aaron's response, "I don't know what's so special about her. I just found out that I can't live without her."Outside the room, Elaine pressed her hand against her pounding heart. After a while, she turned away. With a trembling smile, she allowed tears to flow silently.Inside the room, Lilian was in shock, her lips parted as she struggled to find words. Eventually, she asked, "Are you serious?"Aaron nodded without hesitation.Lilian continued, "And what about Sarah? How do you feel about her?"Aaron frowned directly. "She has changed."After the events they had gon

The sky had already turned dark. Elaine sat in a chair in Sylvia's office, staring blankly at the swaying tree shadows outside the window.Her original intention was to think about some things, but her current mood didn't seem suitable for contemplation. No matter what she thought about, it always came back to Aaron's words, "I can't live without her!" Aaron, what do you really mean by saying that?She nervously bit her lip and, in the end, found that thinking too much was pointless. She couldn't fathom his intentions, so she decided to take it one step at a time.Returning to the hospital room, Aaron didn't inquire about what she had done. Elaine looked at him for a while but didn't bring up the matter either."I want to show you something," Aaron said mysteriously, motioning her to come closer to the hospital bed.Elaine complied and saw him open a file folder and take out several photographs. She took the photos and saw several solo pictures of the same woman. Although she was no l

Aaron was receiving emergency leg therapy at Matt's place.Matt was busy with his hands while scolding Aaron, "Your leg won't be able to support your weight for at least ten days to half a month. If you feel guilty and don't want to inconvenience her, why not postpone the wedding for a couple of weeks? She won't run away, but you only have these two legs, and once they're broken, they're gone!"Aaron reclined on the bed, his face showing signs of discomfort due to the pain. He simply smiled at Matt's concerns. "It's alright. As long as I endure for half an hour, once the ceremony is over, I'll sit back in the wheelchair.""Just half an hour, Aaron. Your leg is made of bones, not iron!" Matt scolded him impatiently."Enough, stop talking. I still need to return to the Brown house later. Get on with it quickly!" Aaron didn't want to continue the discussion.Aaron lay back on the bed and closed his eyes, but he couldn't help but think about Elaine's recent phone call. He opened his eyes

"In my opinion, my brother is biased," Sylvia said as she twirled around Elaine, who was already dressed up, in the bride's dressing room.Elaine felt a bit nervous but breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Sylvia and said, "You're joking, right?""But I'm not jealous of you at all. After all the hardships you've been through, it's only right that he pampers you. I'm protective of you too, so remember, if that jerk Aaron dares to mistreat you, be sure to tell me. I'll break his legs!" Sylvia said with a reassuring smile."Don't worry, I'll take care of myself," Elaine replied with a smile.Sylvia smiled back and then carefully adjusted Elaine's wedding gown. "By the way, what if Aaron really comes out in a wheelchair?"Elaine pursed her lips, making sure her lipstick was just right. Satisfied, she replied, "If he uses a wheelchair, so be it. It's not a big deal."As they were talking, Renee knocked on the door and entered. She was wearing a beautiful rose-red gown today, with delic

The wedding was in progress. Elaine and Aaron stood on the stage, receiving enthusiastic applause from the audience.Elaine's emotions had calmed down by now, but nervousness was inevitable. Her palms holding the bouquet were sweaty, and she glanced at Aaron beside her. Though he stood tall and handsome, the smile on his lips gradually faded, and beads of sweat formed on his forehead. His leg must be hurting. She worriedly looked at him, but Aaron just smiled at her and whispered, "I'm okay."Next, the priest began to recite the vows. "Dear friends and family, we are gathered here today to witness the union of this couple in holy matrimony. Marriage is a sacred covenant, a commitment between two people in love and loyalty. Now, I ask Aaron Brown and Elaine Smith to stand together and declare their wedding vows.""Aaron Brown, do you willingly accept Elaine Smith as your lawfully wedded wife? Do you promise to love, cherish, honor, and respect her, in joy and in sorrow, in sickness and

CEO Marriage Scam Chapter 203: Sylvia's Extra Story
In the following weeks, Lance frequently invited Sylvia to meet up. Gradually, Lance developed feelings for Sylvia and decided to confess his feelings. However, Sylvia felt he was too young for her and turned him down.A few days later, Sylvia was taking a break in her office. She heard footsteps approaching the door and assumed it was a nurse coming to remind her about a patient. She set down her coffee cup and stood up. But when the door swung open, it wasn't a nurse who entered; it was Lance, dressed in a suit and holding roses.Almost reflexively, Sylvia's heart skipped a beat. She pretended to flip through patient records and casually asked, "Why are you here?"Not receiving an immediate response from Lance, Sylvia raised her head to find him standing less than two meters away, holding roses and looking directly at her.Lance said, "You asked me to think it over carefully, and I did that after I went back."His expression was incredibly earnest, and Sylvia's fingers, gripping the
CEO Marriage Scam Chapter 202: Sylvia's Extra Story
Seeing the young man staring at her, Sylvia wasn't one to be subtle. Considering the potential identity of the young man, even though she didn't have any disdain for that profession, she still felt a bit strange. So, taking advantage of the moment when the man was in a daze, she swiftly moved out of his embrace.Realizing that her arms were suddenly empty, Lance snapped back to reality. He lowered his head and looked at his empty arms, feeling a sense of loss. A trace of disappointment appeared on his clean face, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly."Lance, I advise you to think it over. I'm offering you a high price. Don't regret it!" The woman took the opportunity to approach, and her finger almost pointed at Lance's nose in an arrogant manner.Sylvia didn't like this woman at all and wanted to teach her a lesson. However, her hand was pulled by Lance, whose fingers were clean and slender, with neatly trimmed nails, just like him, giving off a very clean impression.Sylvia lowered he
CEO Marriage Scam Chapter 201: Sylvia's Extra Story
From a very young age, Sylvia displayed a different side compared to other girls. While most girls immersed themselves in pretty princess dresses and shades of pink, and vied for the attention of handsome young men, Sylvia showed little interest. Furthermore, she had an exceptional older brother, Lance, which led her to have high standards when it came to men. Ordinary young men simply couldn't capture her interest. During her school years, many pursued her with flowers and gifts, but failed to attract her. Later, when she began working in the emergency department of a hospital, she encountered gory scenes every day. Her conversations were often peppered with terms like "fracture," making her one of the renowned figures at St. Love Hospital's emergency department. Sylvia didn't think much of men. They seemed to exist only to fulfill certain needs, and she had little desire for such things. Having become accustomed to being on her own over the years, even as her family members marrie
CEO Marriage Scam Chapter 200: Making Amends
In mid-September, Renee gave birth to a baby girl. When Elaine and Aaron arrived at the hospital, they saw the newborn baby, wrinkled-faced and tiny. Elaine looked at her with great affection and couldn't wait to hold her.The nurse carefully handed the baby to her, a soft bundle that seemed fragile, as though she might break with a wrong move. Elaine held her with stiff movements, as if cradling something extremely delicate. She didn't dare to breathe too heavily."She's so small and so soft," she exclaimed excitedly. Elaine turned to look at Aaron and was surprised to see a hint of tears in his eyes. She was momentarily taken aback. The baby in her arms had already been taken away by the nurse."I have to take the baby to the nursery. Family members can go there to see her," the nurse said and left with the baby.In the corridor, it was just Elaine and Aaron. Elaine placed her hand on her swollen abdomen, then linked her arm with Aaron's, and smiled. "We'll have our own baby very so
CEO Marriage Scam Chapter 199: The End of the Bad Guy
As time passed, Elaine's belly gradually grew larger. With Aaron's meticulous care, she gained a little weight. Her once sharp chin filled out, and her complexion improved.During these two months, a significant event occurred: Ralph Brown passed away. He transferred all of Aaron's company's 30% of shares to Elaine, left the old Brown family mansion to Vincent, and the other five properties, including cars and various antiques, to Trevor. Mavis, at first, didn't agree with this distribution of the inheritance. Elaine didn't want those shares either, but the lawyer explained that if Elaine refused, the shares would have to be donated to a charitable organization. So, in the end, Elaine had to accept the shares. Mavis had no choice but to accept it as well, as the will had legal effect.Elaine already had 10% of Aaron's company shares, and with the additional 30%, it meant that Aaron's company ultimately returned to Aaron's control.Throughout this process, Aaron remained silent. He see
CEO Marriage Scam Chapter 198: Sarah's Death
Aaron brought Elaine back to their home. He carried her upstairs, being gentle and considerate. "You're so cold. Let me run a hot bath for you."In truth, Elaine wasn't cold; it was his own body that felt icy.Seeing his lips turning purple, Elaine couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke his cheek. "I'm sorry for making you worry."Aaron just shook his head. "As long as you're okay."Elaine bit her lip. "I'm not okay. I've really thought about ending it, why go on living to face all that pain?"As her words fell, Elaine distinctly felt Aaron's arm around her tightening. Nevertheless, she continued, "I just thought of the baby in my belly. I've already killed one. I can't harm this one too, so..."Her words caused Aaron's entire body to tense. Yet, he was also relieved that they had this child. Otherwise, he might have lost Elaine forever. He shifted his gaze to her abdomen and softly said, "Thank goodness for you."Elaine was unaware of his thoughts, and her fingers instinctivel
CEO Marriage Scam Chapter 197: The Explosive Truth
After two days of anxious waiting, Melissa finally received the DNA test results, confirming that she and Elaine were indeed mother and daughter. The samples had been provided by Melissa herself, and the hair samples, including Elaine's and hers, couldn't have been falsified.Her fingers trembled uncontrollably. Melissa staggered backward, her back against the wall, unable to contain the shivers running through her body. Elaine was really her daughter.She was the same daughter she had heartlessly abandoned in the wilderness during that winter, the daughter she had forsaken in her ruthless quest for revenge against Tatum. She had harbored murderous intent against her daughter not once, but three times, all in the name of saving Shumo Ran's life.Elaine was her daughter!..."Aaron, hurry and find Elaine. She drove off by herself, and we're worried she might be in danger. You must find her!" Renee's voice sounded frantic on the phone."What happened? Why did Elaine leave home like that
CEO Marriage Scam Chapter 196: Close to the Truth
More than an hour later, Elaine woke up. When she opened her eyes, there were people standing around her hospital bed. She blinked and felt some discomfort in her shoulder. Her brow furrowed slightly.Aaron, anxious, immediately asked, "What's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"Elaine shook her head. "I'm okay. Thanks for worrying."She remembered Calvin, the man who had pushed her away, and asked anxiously, "How is Calvin?"She tried to sit up but was gently restrained by Sylvia. "Don't worry; he's okay. He has a broken leg, but the other injuries aren't too severe."Elaine, reassured about Calvin's condition, patted her stomach. "Oh, yes, I almost forgot about the baby."Aaron stopped her from moving further, saying, "The doctor said you should try to move as little as possible. Don't forget, there's a baby in your belly."Elaine rested back down.Over the next few days, Aaron not only took care of Elaine but also investigated why the driver had veered toward her. He found
CEO Marriage Scam Chapter 195: Harming Her Own Daughter
Tatum went to the Garcia household since Melissa wasn't at home. After waiting for about half an hour, he heard the sound of a car outside. Tatum suddenly looked up, a hint of panic in his eyes, and slowly stood up from the sofa. It was indeed Melissa returning. She was holding her phone and talking on the phone, saying, "Don't worry, as long as you complete this task for me, I promise to send your wife and child abroad. Yes, the two million deposits have been transferred to your wife's account. I'm waiting for good news from you. Remember my requirements, go all the way!" Then she hung up and walked into the house. "Melissa!" Tatum looked at the weary woman before him. If only he hadn't insisted on leaving all those years ago... "You..." Melissa looked at the person before her, and a vague image in her mind became clearer, merging with the man before her as if he were the man from her hallucinations. She opened her mouth as if to say something but suddenly clutched her head, her
