Carrying the child of a CEO (English) Zain and Bianca
A few minutes later, I had already changed and fixed myself up. I cried for five minutes, then immediately composed myself. I only did quick makeup.My outfit was white with glitter, making it shimmer.The only thing I didn’t like about it was that it was a crop top. I was surprised seeing this because this was my design! My own design—I couldn’t believe I’d be wearing something like this. The sleeves were long, a full-length sleeve, making me feel like a Hollywood star in this outfit, paired with my tall white heels.I sprayed net on my hair to keep it sleek, combed back—truly a Hollywood star look.Good thing my puffy eyes weren’t noticeable. As for the outfit, I had no choice because Tita insisted I wear it. It was beautiful, but I never wear crop tops—this was my first time.Yes, I design crop tops because they’re trendy, but I don’t wear them myself.I looked like a model for my own clothes. I shook my head at the full-body mirror—I was already late, so I had to hurry.“Zayne? Bi

”I’m back again, so sorry for that. By the way, I just received news that this new couple on stage, along with Mr. Gray’s son, has an interesting video. Let’s watch this.”I immediately felt alarmed. What video?!I glanced at Zekiel, and his reaction mirrored mine—shock. Even my son, Zayne, looked stunned.”What is that?!” I demanded, but no one answered. Instead, a video began playing on the large projector in front, silencing the entire room.I shot to my feet at what I saw—it was a video from yesterday when we were on a call with the venue designer while the three of us were arguing over the arrangements.The room erupted in noise. I heard some positive comments, but far more were negative—because I was just a secretary.”Yes! She’s Mr. Gray’s btch secretary!”I scanned the room, trying to see who had shouted that, but I couldn’t pinpoint the source. The murmurs only grew louder.I turned to Zekiel, who remained seated, unfazed.”Do something!” I hissed at him, but he just looked a

“Excuse me, Ms. Belle, but Ms. Sanchez fainted in the garden. She’s currently in the clinic.” “What?!” Bea immediately stood up from her seat, startled by what her employee had whispered to her. Most of the people around turned to look at her because of how loud her reaction was. “What happened, Love?” her husband asked worriedly, knowing something bad must have occurred—especially from her visible reaction. “Venice fainted in the garden!” she said anxiously. “What?!” “Auntie!” “What?!” Zekiel’s family stood up in shock, especially him and their son, Zayne. Everyone turned to Zekiel as he immediately ran off. “Wait, Kiel! We’re coming with you!” The crowd began murmuring among themselves, distracted from the ongoing company employee games due to the sudden incident. Fortunately, the MC was informed right away and apologized to the audience for the unexpected disruption. Many were concerned, but most were just eager to gossip. Bea and Kiel’s parents didn’t hesitat

Zekiel was alarmed, so he immediately approached his son and pulled him away. “Son, your tita is resting,” Zayne looked at him, and Zekiel was surprised to see the boy crying. “Why are you crying, son?” he asked worriedly. The others in the room also fell silent, concerned about Claire, but they were also puzzled by Zayne’s reaction. Hero, meanwhile, could only shake his head at what he was seeing. He knew Zayne could feel that Claire was his mother—even if the boy didn’t realize it yet. “I-I don’t know, Daddy. I’m just worried about Tita. She’s okay, right? She’ll wake up, won’t she?” “Of course, what are you talking about? Tita just fainted. I’m sure she’s fine.” “But you’re not sure, Daddy! You’re not a doctor!” Everyone was startled by Zayne’s outburst, and they had to hold back their laughter. They couldn’t believe Zayne had just bluntly called out his father, especially in that situation. “Whatever, Zayne. I’m sure she’s okay.” Just as Zekiel said that, the

When the elevator opened on the floor where Hero was staying, the group quickly rushed out, led by Claire. She didn’t care if her hair was still messy—all that mattered was getting to his place as soon as possible. “Claire, where are we going?!” Bea asked frantically as she followed her. Since the rooms on this floor were numbered up to fifteen, they had already passed quite a few. “Just wait—it’s right here—this one!” The moment Claire spotted it, hope surged through her. She was about to knock when the door suddenly swung open. “Venice? You’re awake? What happened to you? You’re bleeding!” Claire couldn’t speak, especially when she saw Kiel stepping out of Hero’s room. Even the couple was startled by their friend’s sudden appearance. They didn’t even notice the long, bleeding wound on Claire’s face. Kiel immediately pulled her inside. “Hero, get the first aid kit—fast!” Hero was puzzled by their abrupt arrival but quickly obeyed Kiel’s order. Meanwhile, Claire only

“But you have a wound on your face!” “So what? It’ll heal!” “No.” “Yes.” “No.” “Yes!” “Venice, I said no!” “Zekiel, I said yes!” Zekiel’s forehead creased in frustration at Claire’s stubbornness. He pinched the bridge of his nose and massaged it in irritation. “Zekiel, stop it! You’re so annoying—I told you, I’ll be fine!” Zekiel looked at her again, and Claire flashed him a smile. “Please?” she said in a cute, pleading voice. “Hard-headed.” “Okay, I’ll take that as a yes! Thank you!” Zekiel could only shake his head at Claire’s antics, while Bea, Dylan, and Hero exchanged glances at the scene before them. If earlier it was just Dylan grinning, now even Hero was doing the same, while Bea was squealing internally at what she was seeing. That was the first time they had ever seen Zekiel act like that—getting so angry one moment, then being completely tamed by Claire the next. The three of them weren’t surprised, though, because they knew Zekiel was utterl

“I took a strand of Claire and Zayne’s hair when they briefly fainted in Kiel’s office. Even though I was already sure that Claire was Zayne’s mother based on her reaction upon seeing the child, I still wanted to confirm it.” Claire glanced at Hero upon hearing his words, and at the same time, he looked back at her. “I’m sure behind those black contact lenses are eyes identical to Zayne’s. Can I see, Claire?” Hero spoke directly to the young woman, and Claire didn’t hesitate to show him her eyes. She trusted him because Zekiel and Dylan trusted him. The couple watched as Claire removed her contact lenses. It was the first time they’d seen her real eyes since their meeting. Once the contacts were off, Claire looked straight into Hero’s eyes, leaving him stunned. “Exactly like Zayne’s,” Hero said in awe, making Claire chuckle. “Tell me, Hero—can I trust you?” Claire’s serious tone snapped Hero back to reality. “Of course! Even though Kiel is my friend, I don’t want to

The two walked together toward the exit as if Zekiel wasn’t with them. He simply let them be, happy to see the two together for reasons he couldn’t explain. All he knew was that he felt happier when the two were happy together. When they reached the beach, there were already many people there for a swim. Almost all the guests had gathered. “Let’s go, Daddy, faster!” Zayne said cheerfully because, even from the main building leading to the beach, the sea was already visible. The weather was perfect—summer at its finest. “Easy, son. We’ll get there,” Zekiel said, stepping beside his son and holding his hand with a smile. Claire was also holding Zayne’s other hand, so everyone who saw them couldn’t help but smile at the sight—they looked like a family, especially since they were together at the event. They were about to continue toward the beach when someone called out to Zekiel. “Mr. Gray!” The three of them turned and saw an older man who still carried himself with dignit

Claire didn’t hesitate to step out of the car, her body strapped with the guns she had taken and the two grenades she carried. She walked straight toward the building, completely disregarding the enemy. “Who are you?!” one of them shouted. In response, Claire swiftly hurled a grenade toward the side of the building, causing an explosion as she simultaneously shot the man who had spotted her. “I’m the one who’s going to wipe you all out,” Claire declared coldly, continuing her advance. Camille ducked from the blast, which shook the entire building due to its sheer force. “What was that?!” Camille screamed furiously, while Zekiel was left wondering what was happening. “Madam, someone’s storming in!” one of the guards shouted from near the window. “Get out there and fight!” Camille ordered, prompting most of them to rush outside, leaving only a few behind. “And who’s going to save you now?!” Camille sneered at Zekiel, though even he didn’t know—especially since no one else

Everyone screamed because of it while Zekiel struggled to endure the pain, his fists clenched tightly and his teeth gritted hard. The others couldn’t handle the electricity anymore and started passing out one by one, including Dylan and Hero, who were worried for their safety. “Hahaha, where’s your courage now? Did you really think I didn’t know your plans? In your dreams!” Camille shouted mockingly. Meanwhile, Zekiel could no longer withstand the electric shocks and lost consciousness, cursing the woman in his mind. Camille noticed they had all fallen unconscious, so she stopped the electrocution. “Take them away. Lock up their companions in the cell, and as for Kiel, put him in a separate room and tie him up tightly.” “Yes, madam,” A man bowed to her, and they quickly moved into action. “Did you really think you could imprison me and silence me that easily? Tsk.” Camille muttered angrily, recalling how she had escaped before. “This is just the beginning.” --- ZEKIE

Upon arriving at the location where the person who wanted to kill his child was, Zekiel and his team hid briefly to plan their entry. They had seen on the CCTV that there were many guards, both inside and outside. “I need you to act, Hero,” Zekiel said, leaving the two puzzled. “I need you to act like you’ve been shot to distract the guards at the front while the others quietly enter through the side passages.” There were three possible exits and entrances—the main door and two side passages of the building. Zekiel planned to divert the guards’ attention while the others would knock them out using sleeping gas. “Okay, copy,” Hero replied, earning a nod from Zekiel. “There’s fake blood behind your seat. Dylan, you take the left passage, and I’ll take the right,” he instructed, to which the other man also nodded. “Then we’ll meet in the center of the building before heading upstairs. Clear?” “Copy, Kiel,” the two responded in unison. “Get this,” Zekiel handed them earpieces so t

“Are you sure you’re going?” I asked Zekiel worriedly as I handed him the jacket he had asked me to get from our room. “I’m absolutely sure. Aren’t you afraid something might happen to our child? That they might get hurt? I’ll finish this so there won’t be any trouble,” he said, pinching my nose gently before kissing my forehead. “But I’m worried about all of you, especially you. I don’t want to lose you, Zekiel.” He smiled at my words. “That’s so sweet. After this, I’ll make you the happiest girl alive,” he whispered before kissing my lips. Why do I feel like something bad is about to happen? “Stay here, okay? Watch over the twins,” he said after pulling away from my lips. He kissed my forehead once more before finally leaving and heading toward Dylan. “Is the team ready?” I could only watch them, my anxiety growing because I could sense something terrible was coming. “We’re ready, Kiel. We were just waiting for you,” Zekiel nodded at them before looking back at me and

”MOMMY!” I turned to look at who called me, so I immediately stepped away from Zekiel and ran toward the twins. “Thank God, both of you are safe!” I whispered weakly, tears welling up in my eyes. “Mommy, we were just here at home. What are you talking about?” they asked in confusion, making me shake my head and pull away from our embrace. “Mommy just missed you because she stayed too long at the mall,” Zekiel chimed in with a laugh, making me smile. “What, Mommy? You should’ve taken us with you so you wouldn’t be alone!” “No, you can’t go outside. Do you understand?” I said seriously, startling them. “Are you serious, Mommy?” Zoey asked with a smile. “Dead serious.” The smile vanished from Zoey’s lips, but I ignored it. “My life, what are you saying?” Zekiel asked me with a grin. “I’m serious, Zekiel.” I turned to the bodyguards Louise had assigned. “Make sure they don’t leave the house. Understood?” They nodded immediately, so I smiled. “Good. Listen to Mommy, t

Zekiel had already decided to quit his job and go home to finally see his family—the family that gave him strength. As he was leaving the office, he grabbed his cellphone to inform Hero, but he froze when a flood of notifications came in one after another. His eyes widened as he read the last message: “Kiel, Claire still hasn’t come home! She’s been at the mall since this morning!” He was startled when the door suddenly swung open, revealing a worried Hero. “Claire is missing!” Without hesitation, Zekiel rushed out, with Hero following closely behind. They quickly got into the car, and while Hero drove, Zekiel immediately called Dylan. “Mansion ASAP, Claire is missing.” He hung up and called his other connections who might help track down his girlfriend’s location. “I was shocked when I read Quinn’s text. I was busy with work, so I didn’t find out right away,” Hero said seriously as he focused on driving. “I know. We need to find Claire now.” At that moment, Zekiel was

CLAIRE We’re currently riding in a large van, and I’m the only one sitting right in the middle while the others are in front and behind me. The fear I feel is overwhelming—not for myself, but for my children. If only we could fly straight to where the twins are, I’d do it just to be with them. I glanced around. The road we were taking was unfamiliar to me, and I had no idea where my American enemy was lurking. Zekiel! I’m sure he’ll worry once he finds out I haven’t returned yet. I need to text him. I leaned back in my seat and subtly observed my companions. All of them were silent, paying no attention to me. My cell phone was in the right pocket of my dress—all I needed was the right timing to take it out and send a message. A cold sweat broke out on my skin because I couldn’t afford to get caught. If they found out, they might drag Zekiel into this, and I don’t want to make things worse. I thought of a plan, so I slowly lay down and noticed them staring at me because of

“I saw that car on a CCTV. I tried to follow its route through other cameras, but strangely, the footage was gone.” Zekiel stared intently at the license plate number—it looked familiar, and he wasn’t mistaken. A moment later, he remembered it was the same one he and Claire had seen before. Just like then, only one camera had captured footage of that car. “Days ago, when Zoey was operated on, she wasn’t actually attacked at that time. Someone tried to kill her.” The other two widened their eyes in disbelief, staring at Zekiel. “Seriously?!” Dylan asked in shock, prompting Zekiel to nod. “The doctor told us everything—someone has been watching our daughter. So Claire and I decided to set a plan to catch the culprit.” “Wait, what plan? You and Claire?” Hero asked, confused. “Yes. We just finalized it earlier, and it turns out the car we found matches the one you saw.” Zekiel pulled out a printed copy of a black car. “That’s it! That’s the same car!” Hero exclaimed, makin

When Claire left, Zekiel went straight to the bed and saw the twins hugging each other. He approached them and gently stroked their hair. “Daddy won’t let anything happen to the both of you,” he whispered softly to the twins. “I’ll make sure whoever’s after your lives pays for it,” Zekiel said before standing up abruptly, grabbing his phone, and dialing a number. “Hide out within twenty minutes,” he ordered before ending the call and heading straight to their hideout. Meanwhile, Hero was knocked to the ground after being punched by a man waiting for him outside his office. After finishing his work, he had gotten into his car, only to realize another car was tailing him. He tried to shake them off but was cornered, leaving him no choice but to surrender. “Y-You won’t get me with just your punches!” Hero shouted back at the man, who only smirked in response. Two more men appeared, pointing guns at him. “Well, you’ll give in to this,” the man said, pulling out a gun from his
