CEO's Substitute Wife Chapter 52. Be Grateful You're Alive
As Adelaide returns to her husband's room to prepare his bath, he still has his eyes closed. She kneels by his side, removes his shoes, and takes the opportunity to give him a few massages while searching for his robe.She has the bath ready in no time.When Egil gets up to go to the bathtub, he instantly notices the red mark on Adelaide's face. While she helps him take off his jacket, he looks at her closely. His fingers itch to tuck that strand of coppery hair falling gently over her forehead and to see the exact shade of her eyes."Who did this to you?" he asks in a firm but low tone. Adelaide looks directly into his eyes for a few seconds. "Who struck you in the face?""I had an encounter with Petra in the hallway on my way here," Adelaide hesitates. Egil looks at her with furrowed brows."She did this to you?" Egil takes her chin with his fingers and examines the red mark meticulously."Yes, it was her," Adelaide replies, swallowing hard as she speaks. She is very afraid of her h

Nadia looks out the window for a long time to calm down. Nora saved her life and kept her hidden all this time so that no one could realize she had survived. She healed each of her wounds without even knowing her or asking for anything in return. She must trust her."Come and eat before your soup gets cold," the old woman says from the table. "Don't worry so much, I've already prepared what we'll use. It will be easy and fast."The woman's words make the young girl turn around. Nora points with her finger to some bottles with a blue liquid. Nadia saw her preparing them last night, but she thought they were some of those mixtures she takes to the hospital for lepers."What is that?" She approaches and tries to touch the bottle, but Nora stops her."Our weapon, Nadia," Nora simply replies. "Eat and try to rest because tomorrow will be a crucial day for the beginning of your revenge."Nadia nods and after helping the woman wash the dishes, she goes to rest as she was asked.The next morn

"What does this mean?!" The man yells as he wakes up and finds himself completely bound by hands and feet to a large wooden beam hanging from the ceiling. "Why am I tied up?!"The place is foul-smelling and dark. It appears to be an old stable, with all kinds of animals roaming around. The roof is full of holes through which rainwater seeps, and there is only a puddle at his feet."Release me right now, because you won't be able to bear the consequences! You don't know who I am or what I am capable of."Nadia looks at him from a window behind her, with a macabre smile on her face that foreshadows the terrifying fate that awaits that man."The Sleeping Beauty has finally awakened," Nadia's voice startles him. He tries to turn around to see her position. "Or should I call you Lucio? Lucio Burnett, known thief, rapist, and murderer of women.""You can't accuse me of what you have no evidence of, you damn woman! My men will look for me, and when they find me, I'll finish what I didn't do

Nadia gets out of the car and enters the stable where she prepares some things before bringing Pedro down, but as she is leaving, the policeman intercepts her at the door.The young woman brings her hand to her chest to calm her scare at being discovered. Did he see her bring that man into the car and followed her because of that? The policeman aims his gun at her as he approaches slowly."Miss Nadia Valencia, on behalf of your father, Bahram Valencia, I order you to come with me to the headquarters right now, before handing you over to your family," the policeman says, looking around cautiously in case there is someone else in the area."I am alone and unarmed, officer," Nadia says, seeking a truce. "There is no need for you to threaten me with your gun. What could I, a weak woman, do to fight against a big man like you?""I am not threatening you, miss. I am just making sure there is no one who will attack me by surprise.""I repeat, I am alone. If you wish, I can show you the rest

Nadia, Nora, and Officer Peña arrive in the town of Vinoxy to investigate the two men, and it's harder than they thought. None of the three find anything relevant, although some claim to have seen them at a prostitute's house the night before with another older man, but they don't know his name.Peña takes advantage of the women being distracted and calls one of his colleagues to deliver a message to Bahram Valencia himself with the location of his daughter Nadia. He knows he is failing the promise he made to the young girl, but failing his oath as a police officer is much worse, according to him.Nora, who discreetly observes him from a distance, realizes his intention and, after overhearing his phone conversation, immediately looks for Nadia. She tells her what she heard, and both are clear about what should be done with him. The officer should already know that Nadia forgives no betrayal.After many searches and failing to find any clues that would lead them to the man who hired th

"The Arrabal estate is not only one of the most prosperous estates in this country, Vítor," Gage says, responding to Vítor's doubts, "but also one of the strongest. When the smaller estates start to face shortages of seeds and other provisions, they will come to us and won't hesitate to help find the culprits.""But this is still madness. No one can claim with certainty that will happen as planned. What if they seek help from other estates?""They will," Egil replies calmly, not stopping his writing. "They have relied on the Arrabal estate since my great-grandfather's administration. They have no choice but to yield.""Furthermore, let's suppose it happens as they suggest, but how can you delegate such a great responsibility as signing a consent to a non-existent wife? Did Mr. Arrabal forget that he doesn't have a legal wife, and therefore no heirs?"The members of the board start murmuring amongst themselves at Vítor's audacity. Egil sets his pen aside and stares at him, waiting for

When Adelaide returns to her room, one of the maids tells her that Egil has returned from the office and sends for her. She reluctantly gets up from her chair and walks to her husband's room. Didn't he say he would be in the office all day? Now she is worried that someone else saw her in the basement and told Egil. That would be her end, as Mrs. Irene said."Husband," she nods towards him as the guards allow her in, "did you send for me?"The young woman's heart beats desperately. With her husband's impassive face, she rarely manages to decipher if he is angry or calm."I want you to have a dinner prepared, just like last time, for two people," Egil says, his gaze fixed on her reactions. Adelaide nervously rubs her hand against her dress. "Everything should be ready in two hours."Two hours? Isn't it too early to have dinner with her lover? It's barely mid-afternoon."Is that all, or do you need anything else?""Yes, I want you to come prepared," the young woman looks at him bewildere

"Everything can change if you ask Egil to reinstate you in your position," Petra tells Lilith. "I'm completely sure he won't refuse. Besides, that will help keep Adelaide away from him all the time. It won't be of any use to her anymore."Lilith thinks for a few minutes about the woman's words. In a way, she is right and her idea might work. She can't stand knowing that young girl is always with Egil when it should be her attending to him.The women talk for a long time, agreeing on many things they will do from now on. Lilith never thought she would have to team up with Petra to get Adelaide out of the way, but she has no other choice. She needs her for now, but when she's gone, she will also get rid of Petra, or so she believes.In the main wing of the hacienda, Adelaide hurriedly walks to the kitchen to ask the servants for help with all the preparations for dinner while looking for Mrs. Irene. She needs to tell her what her husband asked of her and ask for her help. Something in h

CEO's Substitute Wife Chapter 161. I love you. Extra
Two weeks later, in Rome... "What does this mean, Benedict?! Is this why you wanted to come to Italy? Because of her? To look for her?" Pamela throws the folder on the table as she cries bitterly. She can no longer bear this situation, she is tired of fighting with the ghost of Adelaide and Gaspar. Benedict takes a napkin and wipes the coffee stains on his jacket caused by the folder hitting his cup, without the mood to respond to his wife's complaint. "I can't bear it anymore, you will never forget her. This obsession of yours with her has gone too far, I want to go home." Pamela walks over to the couch where she sits to alleviate the pain in her back. When she found the folder this morning among her husband's things, she couldn't believe what it said. "You can leave whenever you want," he says dryly but in a low tone. "No one forced you to come with me, or to get involved in things that are none of your business." "Does she matter to you more than me and your daughter?" Pamel
CEO's Substitute Wife Chapter 160. Honeymoon. Epilogue, part 2
Emma looks at her husband with fiery eyes as he carefully salivates that object. Then she positions herself with her back to him, bending down enough to offer him a unique, delicious, and incredibly sexy view of her behind.Her husband's breath triples as his mouth comes into contact with her body. He inhales deeply, shamelessly, savoring the distinct aroma of woman that drives him crazy. Without any further preamble and on the verge of collapse, he assaults her intimate part.Adriano's tongue is having a party tonight. It eagerly explores every nook and cranny, savoring it like the nectar of the gods."Love, like this," Emma moans desperately. "Please, keep going."Adriano continues his work, now more diligently, moving a bit higher and applying more pressure to the right spot to sufficiently lubricate that orifice from which he will later delight himself.Slowly, he directs the plug to where it should be, doing it gently and with just the right coercion so that in a couple of moveme
CEO's Substitute Wife Chapter 159. Honeymoon. Epilogue, Part 1
"My love," Emma calls Adriano's attention, barely peeking through the bathroom door as she walks slowly towards where he is."For all the angels!" Adriano whispers as he takes in every detail of her from head to toe. "Emma, my love...""Do you like it?" she asks, advancing in her high heels that resonate throughout the room, until she's just a step away from him.Adriano swallows hard a couple of times and still can't manage to untie his throat. Damn it! He knew nothing would be normal with her on their honeymoon, but this exceeds all his expectations. Emma is so beautiful she looks like a seductive angel.Immediately and without any preamble, he falls to his knees at her feet, placing his hands on her thighs and fixing his gaze on the smooth and kissable skin of that part of her body."I'm very excited, my husband," she says, running her fingers through Adriano's hair. He closes his eyes for a second and lets out a heavy sigh. "What are you going to do about it?""I will give you all

In Rome, five years later..."Is this for real?" Adriano sets his champagne glass aside and approaches Emma, who is leaning on the terrace railing, but looking at him."Of course. I've never been more sure about this," she responds with her usual smile that melts Adriano’s heart with love. He approaches her and takes her face in both hands before planting a soft kiss on her lips. He has patiently waited for this day for all these years.

CEO's Substitute Wife Chapter 156. Will you let me be the owner of your body?
"Isn't it the same thing you plan to do? Aren't you going to claim what you bought?" Pamela asks Benedict in a bitter tone while pointing at herself."Of course I will claim it," he responds dryly. "The difference is that I will be your husband. With me, you will have everything you never dreamed of having. I won't take you by force, but that doesn't guarantee that when you decide to be with me, I won't be hard with you, because that's how I like to fuck. You will be Mrs. Arrabal, the mother of my heirs, my wife."An overwhelming silence envelops them at that moment. Pamela doesn't even know how to respond to that.He extends his hand to her and Pamela takes a few seconds to take it. Benedict puts her on his lap, just like he had hundreds of times with Adelaide. In a way, Pamela reminds him of her, her innocence, her spontaneity, her simplicity.Benedict inhales the scent of her hair before kissing her forehead again. This is something Pamela has never experienced before, she doesn't
CEO's Substitute Wife Chapter 155. Yes, I want to go
Pamela is busy cooking inside the precarious hut she lives in with her aunt since her mother died 20 years ago.Since she arrived yesterday morning, her aunt has not stopped reproaching and calling her every possible name for escaping that night when she wanted to sell her to that disgusting man for a little money.Of course, she is used to her aunt's abuse after so many years living with her, but what she did that night crossed all the limits and she doesn't plan on letting it happen again.She still wears the bandage on her knee, and although the pain is almost nonexistent now, she fears her wounds will get infected.While stewing the meat for lunch, she takes a glass and pours a little water, but when she turns around, a dark and large figure sitting in the only armchair in the small living room startles her, causing the glass to fall from her hands to the floor."Hello, little one," Benedict's hoarse and firm voice shakes her from head to toe.How did he find her? Did he have her
CEO's Substitute Wife Chapter 154. Revenge has come to an end
A thick smoke hangs in the horizon, darkening the sky and casting shadows over the Turnnie mansion. It was a devastating surprise attack, they had planned for months to come here so that everything would go perfectly. Chaos reigns as flames devour the house and crops, and the screams of the servants fill the air.In the center of the chaos, Benedict calmly looks at the destruction. This day was supposed to mark the justice he had waited for so long. Adelaide's brother, Calixto, and his father, Bahram Valencia, were finally supposed to receive the punishment they deserved for the attack on the Arrabal clan, which had claimed the lives of many people, including his brother Egil, and for all the times they had plotted to kill her. However, both of them are missing."I'm sorry, sir, but we can't find them anywhere," one of his men informs him. "Everything indicates that they are not in the mansion.""Did you search inside the basements?"Benedict knows that Bahram has been living here wit
CEO's Substitute Wife Chapter 153. Everything is Ready
"Do you want to try?" Benedict's sudden question makes Pamela blush, imagining he's referring to her very visible attributes now in front of him."He's crazy! Who does he take me for?" She responds immediately, quite offended. "I don't even know him.""I don't see what the problem is; it's just whiskey," Benedict replies, pointing to the glass but at the same time smiling in a way that disturbs Pamela. "What did you think?""Nothing," she responds, realizing she misspoke."Alright, are you leaving or not?" he asks as he searches for something in his drawers. "It's late, and I need to sleep.""So, you don't mind me going alone at this time of night?" she questions as if that's a problem for him."No," Benedict responds as he puts on his boxers. Pamela looks at him indignantly. "But if you want to stay, I can...""Fine," she interrupts him. "I'll stay right here on the couch, still, I won't bother at all."Pamela settles there with every intention of staying to sleep.Benedict, tired of
