CEO's Hidden Marriage The actual truth!
Viaan’s POV:-A heavy sigh escaped my lips before I raised my eyes to look at him and Ryan, who were all silent till now. “It’s not your fault, Leo. You didn’t know our conversation was manipulated like that… and then the live video was certainly a secret act, plus we were distracted by the chaos. No one saw that coming.”“Still, I should have been more vigilant!” He slammed a frustrated hand on the table.“It’s okay. Don’t blame yourself, because I don’t!” We fell silent for a moment once again.“The real question is, how come someone has the recording of your conversation?” Ryan broke the silence with the cryptic question. Doubt hung in the air, and I could see it mirrored on both their faces. “Because if I am not wrong, this doesn’t sound morphed. However, I would suggest a test—”“That’s not needed, Ryan. It is real. We did have a conversation about this a few days ago while I was driving boss here. Also, since only Boss and I know about it, my team, oblivious to any such informat
CEO's Hidden Marriage Answering the media
Writer’s POV:-“I am going to confront him myself, boss. He is the only person outside our circle to sit in the car. And we have all the reasons to doubt him.” Leo said to Viaan as he doubted a particular one and reminded Viaan about the same.“He actually has a point there, Viaan. Your car is one safe place. Getting taped inside it means someone has had access to it,” Ryan supported.Viaan looked at Ryan and Leo and sighed heavily.“Even I think it’s him only. Anyway, go ahead with your plan. But make sure whatever you do, you do sooner. We don’t have all the time to focus on it. The longer the things are strained, the higher the chances are for the investors to pull out. I can’t afford to suffer that huge loss. Not right now!” Viaan sighed, pressing his temple.“Don’t worry, I know how to get the truth out of his mouth if he is actually behind it, as I feel my intuitions are right,” Leo reassured him before getting up from his chair. “I’ll be back in some hours.”“Come straight to t

James’ Hospital:-Rachel chimed in, her voice filled with empathy. “We’re here for you, Kiara. You don’t have to go through this alone.”Kiara managed a faint smile, appreciating their support. “Thank you, both of you. It means more than you know.” She looked at them with eyes full of gratitude.“You don’t thank family, Kia. We are family.” Rachel pressed her hands warmly before pulling her into a hug.“I’m also there, guys. Don’t leave me behind.” Maya pouted, childishly, making the other two girls chuckle and open their arms to welcome her.“We can’t ever leave you behind, Maya. You’re our integral part.” Kiara said softly, earning a grin from the latter.Rachel’s face was then marred with some teasing expressions. “And not to forget the leader of our group!” She teased, reminding them of all the times she gets protective of all of them and tells everyone what to do and what not, like an elderly woman.“Shut up!” Maya punched her arms, playfully glaring at her.****New Horizons Can
CEO's Hidden Marriage Little Ava!
NHCHARI:-The child in the bed stirred, as if sensing the tension in the room. Her innocent eyes blinked open, and she looked around, bewildered by the somber atmosphere.“What’s happening?” Ava’s voice croaked as she looked at her parents in confusion before looking at the third person and recognizing him instantly. “Uncle, Leo!?”Ava had met Leo twice, but in two meetings only the kid was fond of Uncle Leo. Her petite face broke into a heartwarming grin as she greeted him. Her dimples deepened, enhancing her childlike charm. She blinked those long, dark lashes as her gaze remained fixed on Leo, her curiosity piqued.“Hello, Uncle Leo,” The little girl chimed, her voice soft and sweet like a melody. “I’m okay now! But where have you been? I missed you.” She lay in her bed, propped up by a mountain of pillows, her big, innocent eyes curiously fixated on Uncle Leo.Leo softened his cold expressions and smiled gently at the little girl. He couldn’t help but be touched by the child’s gen
CEO's Hidden Marriage A good news
Once outside, the tension was palpable. Leo’s brows were furrowed, and his eyes bore into George with an intensity that was hard to ignore. He didn’t mince words.“I’m not going to beat around the bush, George,” Leo began, his voice laced with anger. “Tell me, why did you spy on us?” The harshness in the voice made the air thick.George at first went all stiff at his direct question, then blinking his eyes a few times, he looked straight at his ex-boss’s nemesis. “What Spy? What are you talking about?” His brows were drawn thin.A deep grunt escaped Leo’s lips. He fisted his fingers into a ball, calming his nerves. “I’m talking about the backstabbing you did. How low will you stoop, George? Just now your wife was also telling you not to betray the ones who helped you, and yet you are now feigning this all?”“Leo, you’ve got it all wrong. She wasn’t talking about any spying. I wasn’t spying on anyone.” George tried to convince him. “She was just asking me not to be in touch with Hunter
CEO's Hidden Marriage Deserving?
Brown Corporation:-After delivering a brief preamble, Mr. White’s voice gained a weighty gravitas. “Ladies and gentlemen, the time has come to announce the next CEO of Brown Corporation.” He eyed the people sitting in front of him, noting everyone’s curious gaze.He knows that the people who never interfered with him in his search trusted him with justice and fairness in his search. He knew people were desperate to know who Mr. White had selected to name for the new CEO, yet they sat silently, waiting for the man to break the news himself.Ever since that fateful day when Mr. White had taken it upon himself to identify the ideal candidate for the position, someone who would not betray the company’s trust as Hunter Brown had, the anticipation had grown. Someone who does not backstab them like Hunter did, much to everyone’s shock and dismay.They all know it is only Mr. White who can find such an honest and reliable person since he has been in his role since the start of the company an
CEO's Hidden Marriage Worried
The hospital room was bathed in the soft, golden hues of daylight streaming in through the curtains. Leena’s ward, with its clean, sterile white walls, held an air of serenity that provided solace to the visitors. Kiara, Maya, and Rachel were sitting by Leena’s bedside, engaged in quiet conversation, their voices hushed in deference to the stillness of the room.From time to time Kiara kept looking at Leena, instinctively. A constant prayer for her early consciousness was on repeat in her mind.She knows whatever trouble they are facing right now is nothing in front of the heartbroken look they are going to witness in Leena’s eyes. But at the same time, she just wants her to get up early so that she can apologize to her Aunty and tell her that she never betrayed her.With that, her mind once again went to Viaan, whom she hadn’t met since yesterday morning. She was, even in the presence of others, getting anxious internally for Viaan and was eagerly waiting for him as Ryan informed the
CEO's Hidden Marriage Telling them
Viaan’s POV:-“I was getting all the negative vibes. They appeared to be so angry.” I heard her mumble against my chest, her voice cracking into worry. She buried her face in my chest, her voice trembling with worry.The weight of the previous night’s events still hung heavily in the air as I stood there in the hospital room with Kiara scurried in my arms. The protests had taken a violent turn, and the uncertainty of the situation had left her visibly shaken.Expected! Much so.The moment Ryan told me that we were on the live stream it was seen by the ladies as well, I knew it was going to be horrifying for her. Also, the fact that I hadn’t told her about my whereabouts at first and then we didn’t get to talk after yesterday morning she was supposed to be this worried.Gently, I pulled away from our embrace, locking eyes with her. I needed to reassure her, to dispel the fear that had taken hold of her. “Don’t worry. It’s all okay now.”“But they weren’t overboard with the rage and vio

CEO's Hidden Marriage One down, one more to go!
Writer’s POV:-Mr. Moore wiped the sweat off his forehead while waiting for the call to be received.“Hello!” The reply came as soon as the call was received.“I have done my work. Now give me my thing back!” He said over the call.“I am impressed with your quickness, Mr. Moore.” a masculine heavy voice was heard from the other side. “I thought you would still take a few more days. But no. You proved why this is priceless to you. Excellent, old man.” With a dark chuckle, the man added. The words were more like a mocking of Mr. Moore’s efforts, and that made the elderly man clench his fingers.Mr. Moore’s entire body shook with rage. At that moment, he wanted nothing but to thrash everything around. To get the man in a chokehold and punch him straight across the face for making him dance on his fingers. However, the helplessness of the situation had him holding from behind. He can’t act repulsive. Not at this stage when he is so close to the one thing that he has been finding for sever
CEO's Hidden Marriage Now give my thing back
Viaan’s POV:-I helped Maa get down from the car, supporting her gently as she stepped onto the gravel path. As soon as her eyes fell on the scene in front of us, she froze. Her fingers tightened around my palm, clutching mine with a grip that spoke volumes.“Viaan, this…” She began, her voice trailing off as disbelief washed over her.Not believing what she saw, she was struggling to find the right set of words. Her lips wobbled putting an impromptu pause. She looked back at me, her gaze searching for confirmation, her body trembling slightly.That was my cue to confirm her doubts.With pride and emotions lacing my own voice, I squeezed her shoulders and nodded. “Paradis d’Amour, Maa. Our dream.” I announced, taking my mother in a half hug from sideways, holding onto her as tightly as I could.She averted her gaze back to the property. With a dip in her brows, she looked at me once again, “Huh?”I knew, I knew she was getting the meaning of my words but the yearning self of hers want
CEO's Hidden Marriage Our dream
Writer’s POV:-“Where are you taking us, Viaan? At least tell me now.” Leena asked for the nth time, getting annoyed at her son’s silence over the matter.Viaan, like the previous times, smiled mischievously and answered without looking back. “Patience, Maa, patience. You’ll come to know soon.”Leena scoffed audibly, narrowing her eyes at her son’s mischief, and scolded him lightly. “That ‘soon’ of yours has not come since the last three and a half hours of our journey. How long more would you keep it a secret?” Her eyes wrinkled at the corners while her nose flared in annoyance.Her anger didn’t seem to affect Viaan a bit as the man chuckled loudly. “As I said, it is a surprise, Maa. I’m not telling you to spoil the fun already.” He refused to reveal, making his mother smack his arms from the backseat.“You have become too naughty these days.” She said through her gritted teeth, only to get a burst of hearty laughter from her son.Huffing, she crossed her hands across her chest and s
CEO's Hidden Marriage Dramatic narration
Writer’s POV:-“Thank you so much, Guys.” An emotional Viaan expressed his gratitude to the two of the constant pillars of his life.Receiving brotherly pats on his back as a response, he reluctantly broke the hug. His dull face was uplifted with the pure essence of their support throughout his life.“You —” Ryan started to speak, but then his eyes narrowed as he studied Viaan’s features more closely. “Were you crying, Viaan?” His eyes scanned Viaan’s face with concern.On cue, Leo also took a closer look. “Yeah, you look off!” He exclaimed, pointing out the obvious signs of distress.Viaan stilled. His smile dropped into a thin line. Immediately, he averted his eyes away from them and looked everywhere around.How come Ryan observed that? His shoulders tensed once again.“No. Why would I cry?” He chuckled nervously shrugging his shoulders, not wanting them to read his face further.“Then why are your eyes red and moist?” Ryan scoffed, narrowing his eyes. “Don’t lie through your teeth

Back in the present time, The PenthouseViaan’s POV, :Looking at the keys, I fisted them tightly. I was in my penthouse where I had come just an hour ago to get freshened up. Last night, I had to lie to Kia and Maa as I had spent entire hours in planning for the surprise for Maa. Then this morning the leftover documentation took my time while I also went to check for last-minute preparations. I just happened to come here one hour ago as I can’t go directly to home. And as soon as I came here, the first thing I did was to call Maa. She deserves the surprise the most.All through this while, I also kept myself reassured that this was not a dream anymore but a reality.A beautiful reality.A certain kind of peace filled my heart. I felt the cores of my eyes moistening up. Our dream was finally completed.“Paradis d’Amour is finally ours, Papa. I completed your and Maa’s dreams.” My voice choked with emotions as I looked at the picture frame on my desk while placing the keys reverently b
CEO's Hidden Marriage Paradis d'Amour was finally mine!
Writer’s POV:-“Did Viaan tell when will he come?” Leena asked Kiara who was serving her breakfast.Her hands stopped in the air and she raised her head to her mother-in-law. “No, Maa. He had just dropped the text last night that he wouldn’t be coming home tonight as he had an urgent meeting and some important work. So, he is perhaps staying at the penthouse itself.” Kiara sighed, continuing to fill Leena’s plate.Leena nodded recalling the text Kiara showed her last night. Viaan had specifically mentioned to tell Leena about it, he himself didn’t text her thinking she must be asleep by then.It was around eleven in the morning. Both the ladies were having a late breakfast today, as Kiara was nauseous and not feeling good this morning; thus she had delayed her meal.Although Leena had something light earlier as she had to have medicines as well, she still joined Kiara in the late meal.It was Leena’s assistance that she was even eating, lest she was all ready to ditch the breakfast to
CEO's Hidden Marriage Influence
Writer’s POV:-“And the man said that Mr. Adams is ready to meet at the earliest possible date,” Daniel revealed, sounding serious and firm.Hunter sat straight with a jerk, his brows dipping in. “How come he agreed this early? Didn’t he and his lawyer want time?” The question triggered his mind, he inquired in a disbelieving tone.The frown went deeper on his face; his eyeballs moving constantly as he tried to figure out Viaan’s step. One thing was crystal clear neither Viaan nor his lawyer saw this proposal as a simple invitation to get rid of legal troubles. Hence it was very much acceptable for his rival to seek time to agree or even deny.That’s why, even when this frustrated Hunter, he was ready for any secret investigation Viaan did on him. But little did he expect, that his acceptance would come this early and fast.He heard Daniel huffing from the other end and came out of his thoughts. “I have no idea, Sir. But if they are ready then why not proceed? This was the plan after
CEO's Hidden Marriage Time
Writer’s POV:-“Kia, calm down. Ryan said that he won’t reveal anything to Viaan.” Sophie tried to calm her down, but the girl was far from calming down.A ready havoc was created in her mind and heart and she had no idea how to deal with it.“But he didn’t even give me any time, Soph. All he allowed me is tonight.” Kiara retorted, holding her breath in apprehension.She can hear her heart pounding in her ears, and sweat beads adorning her temples even after the decreased temperature of AC.Her words followed a silence before Sophie sighed audibly. “You have taken more than you should, Kia. You can’t avoid it any longer. Dr. Ryan was right when he said the more delay you are making the harder it would be to make Viaan understand.” Sophie indirectly quoted Ryan’s words from the last evening.“Out of all people, you should be understanding my dilemma, Soph.” Kiara clicked her tongue, getting annoyed at not finding any solution. “I didn’t wait for Tyler to just wake up, but I needed to k
CEO's Hidden Marriage The time has come, Kiara
Writer’s POV:-“Not only this but also the fact that Aaron is Tyler and Sophie’s son!” Ryan’s voice was steady, but there was a hint of solemnity in his tone.As Ryan dropped the bombshell, Kiara and Sophie froze, their eyes widening in shock. The words hung in the air, heavy with the weight of the revelation.A revelation that Kiara least expected today.The room fell into a stunned silence. The only thing audible at that moment was the ticking of the clock and the lazy evening wind coming through the open windows of Ryan’s cabin.With a composed face, Ryan watched the two women in front of him, trying hard to digest the truth he just disclosed.He knew this was going to be their reaction once her tells them the truth, but still watching them doing so, made him amused.Did they really think they would keep this massive truth away from him?Did they seriously think he wasn’t going to find it out, ever? He was a doctor, for God’s sake. It was impossible for this truth to be a secret fr
