2021-11-30 17:31:28As soon as he entered the hotel room, Julian rushed to check every corner of the room. Carefully, he made sure that no one was hiding there, including in wardrobe, bathtub, and behind curtains as well. The balcony overlooking the mountain also did not go unnoticed. After the inspection was over, he locked the door and propped it up with a chair.
“Should we continue this stressful journey? It doesn't feel like a vacation at all,” the girl mumbled as she dragged the suitcase to the side of the wardrobe. A small frown had lodged at the base of her brow since Gabriella's video call ended.
“Nowhere is safe, Mia. Even if we return to Quebracha, we won't be focusing on work either. Anxiety will definitely hinder our performance,” Julian said while stroking the secretary's arm.
After taking a deep breath, trying to quell the restlessness that weighed on her heart, the girl nodded. "Right," she sighed disappointedly. Insecurity was still lingering at the bottom of her

"Are you cold?" Julian whispered while pulling the blanket over their bodies. A second later, the girl in his arms shook her head and tightened the hug. "No. I'm never cold when I'm around you." "But we spent too long in the tub," the man mumbled with guilt. "It doesn't matter. That's fun,” Mia said, before smiling. She never thought that she could talk casually with the CEO. "Is that so?" the man sighed while rubbing his lover's arms so that they were no longer cold. "Good." While taking a deep breath, Mia reviewed the memories that had been milling about in her mind. "Do you still remember all that Mr. Max and I did?" the girl asked after failing to count her pranks. "Of course. I wonder why you wanted to obey Max's orders," Julian said, half grumbling. "Because it's fun," Mia answered unexpectedly. The girl managed to make the heavy eyelids lifted to the maximum. With an expression of disbelief, the man asked

As soon as she opened her eyes, Mia was immediately greeted by the empty side of the bed. In a few blinks, the girl lifted her head and started looking around. After checking in several directions, she finally found her lover, pensive in the chair facing her."You woke up so early this morning, hm?" Mia asked hoarsely. Even though her eyelids were still heavy, she kept pushing her head up from the pillow.Getting the unexpected attention, Julian gasped. As soon as he saw the girl smiling at him, the man also raised the corners of his lips. "Yeah, I woke up and couldn't sleep anymore.""Since when?" Mia inquired while looking at the clock on the wall."An hour ago," the man answered, glancing at the same direction.Wrinkling her eyebrows, the girl got off the bed. After a few steps, she arrived in front of Julian and gently rubbed the man's puffy eyes.“Are you really unable to sleep or on purpose to be on guard? You must be overshadowe

“No wonder Mia cares so much for Sebastian. Turns out, they are indeed close," Julian thought behind the flat expression. With a sigh, the man looked up at the green hills that lined the grass. Once again, the sight that should have invited admiration, failed to catch his attention. The glass windows that were installed along the carriage seemed not big enough to satisfy the CEO's eyes. "Isn't this view mesmerizing?" Mia whispered while leaning her head on the man's shoulder. In an instant, Julian forced a smile and rubbed the hand that was not bored perched on the crook of his elbow. "Yes. This is very refreshing,” the man said using logic. “If Cayden comes here, he will definitely run through the meadow chasing the sheep. Or maybe, he'll roll over and overwhelm his mother," the girl muttered before smiling sweetly. Witnessing the happiness of his lover, a sense of guilt rose in Julian's heart. He should have enjoyed the trip. But why

“Wow,” Mia sighed as she couldn't take her eyes off the pyramid-shaped mountain with the blanket of snow on top. "Isn't that very beautiful?" the girl muttered, pressing her palms against the glass wall in front of her."So, how is it, Mia? Is that mountain exactly the same as the one in your favorite chocolate packaging?” Julian whispered while wrapping his lover's back with his body."Yes," the girl nodded with teary eyes. “The person who initiated it must be very intelligent.”While chuckling, Julian kissed his lover's head. "Are you looking forward to going up there?""Yes. Looks like, tonight I won't be able to sleep because I'm so enthusiastic," the girl replied with eyes fixed on the pointy peak of the Matterhorn.“How about we postpone our departure to Gornergrat? Tomorrow morning, we'll go straight up there," Julian suggested. In a sudden, Mia turned to face him."Are you serious?" the girl

With trembling hands, Julian showed the contents of the small box to the girl. After taking a deep breath, reducing the nervousness that tickled his heart, he said, “Mia Sanders, getting to know you is the happiest thing in my life. I hope you don't mind being the reason I smile in the morning, excited at work, and pounding at night."With teary eyes and a mouth that was confused about what to say, Mia shook her head in disbelief. Not knowing what to do, the girl finally let out a short breath and tilted her head, looking at Julian with compassion.“I know this proposal is a little late. But, I want you to know that Julian Evans really wants to be the best man for you. I'm willing to be anything to make you happy. A man who is romantic, caring, brave and reliable. I will always try, Mia.”Seeing Julian's sincerity, the girl sighed faintly. Her chest was congested with a very thick happiness.“Are you asking me to serve you every ni

When Mia opened her eyes, she did not see Julian's presence. While furrowing her brows, the girl stretched her stiff muscles. "Why is my body all sore?" Mia thought, not yet fully aware. Just as she was about to lift her head to look for Julian, the memory of last night flashed through her mind. In an instant, the girl's eyes widened and her mouth opened wide. "Gosh! We really did that?” Mia thought with eyebrows raised to the max. After a blink, the girl peeked under the blanket. A body full of traces of the CEO's love suddenly evoked shame. Without thinking, she grabbed the blanket and pulled it over half of her face. While sinking deeper into the bed, Mia reviewed what they did before falling asleep. She remembered how strong Julian was, how helpless she had been, and how strange the voices she made each of the man made her heart fly. The more memories played back, the redder the face of the girl who didn't expect herself to be able acting

“Julian,” Mia whispered when they were only a few steps out of the hotel, “is my gait strange?”With furrowed brows, the man lowered his head, watching the footwork of the girl beside him. After a few moments, he shook his head. "No. Is there something wrong?"“I feel … a little uncomfortable,” Mia said with a small grin.Understanding what his lover meant, Julian automatically smiled. "Am I being too hard on you?" he asked right in front of the girl's ear.With slightly puffy cheeks, Mia blinked through the awkwardness. "Not really," she answered slowly. “But, for some reason … it feels a bit strange.”Being entertained by his lover's behavior, Julian snorted a laugh. While rubbing the girl's arm, the man brought his lips closer. "As far as I know, it's natural for a woman who did it for the first time."“Do you forget? We've done it before. Last night ... was not my first

"Are you afraid?" the girl whispered as she realized that her lover's face was starting to turn pale."No," Julian answered flatly without moving an inch. His head was too tense to shake.While smiling, Mia held the man's hand. “Try not to count the heights. Just focus on the scenery that will never be found anywhere else," the girl said, implanting suggestions.A second later, she pointed out the window. They had just passed the tallest leaf of a tree.“Look! When else can we level with the top of pines? Isn't this really cool?"Instead of paying attention to the direction of his lover's index finger, Julian just glanced at it and nodded."Yes. Very cool,” the man sighed as he had to conserve oxygen. He realized that the place they were going would be much higher than the gondola on Mount Pilatus.Feeling that she failed to calm Julian down, Mia exhaled faintly. After blinking slowly, the girl muttered, “I tho

"Whoa!" Cayden sighed as his father placed him on the back of a pony. With round eyes, he surveyed his height from the ground. Even though it was not much, the toddler in the cowboy hat still showed a happy smile. “How is it, Little Evans? Are you happy?” the woman who held the horse's rein asked. Not daring to move much, Cayden nodded at a limited angle. "Yes, Greta. I am happy. It's thrilling!” he answered enthusiastically. “Thrilling?” Gabriella muttered, furrowing an eyebrow. While continuing to rock her niece, the woman expressed astonishment. “Where did you learn that word, Little Prince?” "Daddy often mentions it," the toddler replied, successfully making his father wince. "Daddy said that the nights spent with Mom were always thrilling." As Gabriella glared at her husband, Greta burst out laughing. "Gosh, Max. I think you should be more careful now. Your genius son can absorb all the words you speak.” "Right. I'll be more caref

"If you kept avoiding me, I would really quit the company," Julian said, successfully freezing Mr. Hunt's steps. The old man was then blinking, digesting the words he thought he heard wrong. “Actually, my position as a CEO is being threatened for some reasons. I tried to keep it a secret from all of you. I didn't even let Mia know. But as it turned out, it wasn't easy at all. My mind became adrift. And because the burden was too heavy, my emotions finally exploded. I'm so sorry it had to happen in front of you." Hearing the tone that seemed honest, Mr. Hunt slowly turned his focus. Two seconds later, he saw the tears slide from the grandson's eyes. "I've tried to be strong and tough, Grandpa. I thought I could solve all problems. But it turns out, I haven’t found any solution yet. That's why I was angry when I failed to find Grace and you at the cemetery. It got me think that I am a useless man," Julian explained with the gloomy eyes landed on the grass.

“Tsk, why does Grandpa run away like this? It just makes me feel even guiltier,” Julian grumbled between gasping breaths. Holding on to Mr. Hunt's message, he walked down the tree-lined path. “What should I do if Grandpa isn't there? Where should I look for him?” the man thought as he couldn't erase the wrinkles from his face. The burden in his heart was too heavy to ignore. After a few moments of struggling with the noise in his brain, Julian finally shook his head and blinked strongly. "No, no. Grandpa must be there. I'll take him home and things will automatically return to the way they were before," the man nodded, fostering hope. Ignoring the anxiety that kept swirling in his mind, he went faster. Unfortunately, as soon as Julian passed the cemetery gates, his steps were frozen. His jaw was dropping while his eyelids were lifted to the maximum. What he had hoped for quickly turned into disappointment. "No way! This is impossible!” he curs

"Dad," Cayden called quietly. A second later, the toddler handed Max a piece of bread that had been cleaned of jam. "I'm already full," he continued with a meaningful smile.Understanding the son's intentions, Max spontaneously raised an eyebrow. "Do you want me to finish your bread again?"While showing two rows of tiny teeth, Cayden nodded. After a faint exhalation, the father began to vibrate the air with laughter."Gaby, look at what Little Prince did! I can get fat if he keeps handing me food,” the man said while showing the second bread he received from his son.“Just eat it, Max. You need more energy to help the Little Prince take care of Hasty,” the woman who was cleaning the dishes with a sponge replied.Hearing his mother's response, Cayden's eyes immediately widened. His energy had just risen to the peak. “I've finished breakfast, Mom. Can I go to the stable now?”"Yes, but you have to wash your face

Suddenly, Julian dropped his face into his hands. After exhaling heavily, he lifted his head again and put on an indescribable expression."I didn't mean to scare anyone, Mia. I just don't want Grandpa’s mistake to happen again," the man said with frown on his face."Yes, I know," Mia replied with the same thin voice. “But you can do it without hurting Grandpa's feelings, Julian. This matter can be discussed amicably.”While gritting his teeth, Julian shook his head. Confusion had returned to cover his eyes. “What should I do now? I already made Grandpa sad.""Apologize?" Mia answered with a grimace."Is that enough?" the man asked doubtfully. He began to realize that his anger had indeed crossed the line.Pondering, the woman nodded. “As long as it's sincere, Grandpa will definitely forgive you. And I think, you should also explain to Cayden that what you did was wrong. Don't let your nephew imitate something t

“Greta, have you prepared delicious toast for us?” Cayden asked as the hostess opened the door wider to welcome him. Seeing her father was still able to walk, the woman with high arch of the brows spontaneously sighed in relief. After shaking her head for a moment, she turned her gaze to the toddler who was still holding Mr. Hunt's hand and waiting for her response. "Of course I have. There is also strawberry jam for you. Are you hungry?” Greta asked while faking a smile. “Not me, but Grandpa. I heard the sound of his breathing all the way. Grandpa is very tired! He should eat a lot of bread," Cayden said with his trademark expression—round eyes and pursed lips. While stroking her son's head, Gabriella bent her knees. After leveling their eyes, the woman tilted her head. "You know where Greta put the plate of bread, don't you?" No more than two seconds, the toddler nodded. "Yes. On the dining table," he answered with a big smile. "That

"Sorry, Julian. I took Grace to see your grandmother for a while. Now, I intend to take her home. We're not wandering around or straying like you said," Mister Hunt explained with an indescribable expression. Even so, his hoarse voice was able to touch the hearts of the listeners, apart from his grandson. "But the way home is over there, Grandpa!" Julian snapped, still with eyebrows raised to the max. The young man didn't feel sorry at all for the hunched back that was getting weighed down by guilt. "I really can’t understand what’s on your mind. Don't you realize that your recklessness can lead to trouble? Didn't we agree to go together? Why did you secretly take Grace away?” he continued, thickening the wrinkles on his grandfather's forehead. Sensing her father's anger, Little Princess began to furrow her brows. The baby had never heard such a loud voice. When her eyes fell on Mr. Hunt's gloomy face, she spontaneously pouted. A second later, her heavy cry b
CEO's Love in Trap Extra Chapter| 13. A Father's Despair
Arriving at the cemetery, Julian was taken aback. What he saw was completely beyond expectation. There were no old man and baby among the tombstones. The grandfather and Grace left absolutely no trace. "This is impossible," Julian muttered as he quickened his pace. Neglecting his initial attempt to remain calm, the man sped toward the direction Greta had given. After searching for a while, he finally found the grandmother's name on one of the stones. “Right, this is the place. They should be here," Julian sighed, sounding desperate. With deep furrows, he circled around, trying to find any trace of either his daughter or Grandpa Hunt. Unfortunately, as far as the eye could see, the two remained off the radar. Confusion instantly grew bigger in Julian’s mind. "Tsk, how could it be like this?" he grumbled while clutching his head. Knowing that irritation, Mia gently touched her husband's arm. She knew that the man had failed to control hi
CEO's Love in Trap Extra Chapter| 12. Grandpa and Grace
Carefully, Mr. Hunt wiped his great-granddaughter's cheek. Grace's red eyes no longer shed sadness. However, the old man still felt guilty for making the baby cry. "I'm sorry, Grace. I should have walked more calmly so you wouldn't wake up," he whispered in between his ragged breaths. After her face had been dry, Grace rested her head on Mister Hunt's shoulder. Blinking slowly, she pursed her lips. The furrow of her tiny brows indicated that she still wanted to roll up in the blanket on the crib. The baby wondered why she was with her great-grandfather, sitting on a long bench at the edge of a path. “When I was young, I only need fifteen minutes to arrive at your great-grandmother's grave. But now, why does it feel so long and tiring?” Mr. Hunt grumbled as he wiped his forehead with one hand. After one quick breath, the old man stood up again and held Grace in his languid arms. Although the baby was a bit heavy, his lips still curled up warmly.
