Celeste: Mr. Weston's Replaced Bride 019
Lifting her arms upwards, Celeste let out a big sigh before knocking at the door. "Mr. Weston, it's dinner time."'I thought someone else would do this but they had me come instead. I hate to see his face but I'm left with no choice. I'll take it as a part of my job.'"Mr. Weston, the meal is ready."Knocking for a few more times as no response came from inside, Celeste glanced around cautiously. "I didn't notice this before but it feels kinda scary with a few lights on this floor, I guess people living in this place really love darkness."Struggling with the weird names Rhodes gave her for the dishes, she tried her best to make them. 'He already came back an hour ago, I've been calling him constantly so he should at least hear me. Well, I can't hear any other sound except for my breathing and talking. Don't tell me... Is he dead?' Surveying her surroundings for a brief moment, she took a step forward. "I will just take a look." To make sure she wouldn't sound suspicious, Celeste ca

"Do you think he is waiting for someone? He is probably waiting for madam. How is that possible? But he's been sitting there for awhile now, he never did something like this before. Usually, he prefers to eat alone and hates anyone giving him company. In the past, he used to have us leave and not return until he would be done. Has he changed?" The chefs talking among themselves didn't help keep the huge dining room quiet at all. With Rhodes not giving an eye to their chaos, it turned to worse.'It has been nearly half an hour now.'His fingers tapped on the table patiently while his ears followed the sound of the wallclock's hands moving. Waiting a few minutes, Rhodes cleared his throat and asked, "Where is madam?""Wow, he's really waiting for her. We were right, he... Shhh! He can hear you." Giving an eye to his colleagues, Jayden replied, "We didn't see madam since this morning, she is probably in her room."Upon hearing him, Rhodes restlessly moved his hands. Since last night, h

"I'm here." Keeping her head down, she asserted.Rhodes moved a little and hit gently on the glass table in front of him, "Here, sit here."A nervous tremor ran through her throat as she stared at him. Celeste with shaky legs walked closer to him and asked, "W-what is it?"Ignoring her question as he tapped on the table with a cold expression on his face, she bit her lips. 'You are not crossing the limit this time so... So, there's no need to be afraid. Just do it, show him that you are not afraid of him.'As she took a seat on the spot he ordered her to, her Adam's apple bobbed with a nervous swallow."Look at me."Celeste held her hands together as tightly as she could while biting her lips again. "Mr. W..."His uninvited sudden closeness got her speechless, her body froze on the spot as he grabbed her chin and his voice so soft, "Shhh!" Celeste nervously blinked while a soft whimper escaped her mouth the moment he put his index on her lips. While he slowly touched her face with

Turning around, Celeste stared at the blond guy with green eyes with a confused look in her eyes, "Who are you..." "So, this is how you look." "Are you Rhodes's secretary?"Though she was told that he would soon be here, she didn't know how did he look since she never met him before."Yes, and I'm also his right-hand man." Clearing his throat, he proudly put his hand in his pocket as he introduced himself, "My name is Atlas, you should call me Sir Atlas.""Oh, ok. Sir Atlas." Celeste tried appearing as harmless as she could yet those gazes filled with hostility bothered her.'I'm sure we have never met before, why does he seem to dislike me? Strange!'"Also, give Mr. Weston respect. How dare you call the President by his name?!" "But I'm here as his wife. Since we are in the party, I thought I should..." Before she could complete the sentence, he interrupted her. Like a teacher finding faults in his student he gave her a bombastic side eye as he added, "Fake wife.""Excuse me? Did

"Miss, wait. You dropped your purse.""I didn't notice when I dropped it. Thank you so much." Celeste took her purse from him while her gaze roamed the gathering. "You are most welcome... If you don't mind, can I have your name?" "Mr. Nguyen." Celeste was about to tell him her name but as she heard someone take the name of the person she was looking for, she hurriedly excused herself, "Sorry, I'm in a hurry.""Wait, I..." Standing there all alone, Eliad looked sadly at the direction she just vanished to. "I didn't get to know her name. Will we meet again?"Celeste started searching the faces, her gaze lingering on each one. As she couldn't find the one she was looking for, she continued her survey. "It's all because of that jerk! Because of him, my life is about to... Ahh! Where do I find him now?" Suddenly crushing into someone, she rubbed her forehead and hissed while clamping her eyes shut. "Ahh, my head..." Celeste barely looked up, as the lights blocked her eyes she couldn't

The sprawling rooftop terrace unfolded like a canvas, painting the city's majestic beauty. As if the universe held it's breath, the moment she reached the huge rooftop her eyes were blessed with such a view that she was speechless. "Mr..." Clearing her throat, Celeste snuck a peek around and changed her posture as she called out sweetly, "Rhodes."On the edge of the rooftop, he was standing like a loner while facing the night sky. "Come here.""Wow, so beautiful." Celeste stood next to him, looking at the sky with wide eyes. "What's so beautiful about it?" "Everything, look at the tall buildings, the bustling streets, the trees with different shades of leaves look so small yet so pretty. Everything looks so small from here but they have their own beauty. Don't you think it's beautiful?"Upon hearing her, Rhodes let out a soft chuckle. "I can't see any of it, so it's all the same for me.""I'm sorry, I didn't mean to...""It's ok."Silence enveloped the area, while she was admiring

Taking the cuff off the shirt he was wearing, he started unbuttoning his shirt. In the darkness, a sweet and soft music playing in the background accompanied him. Rhodes tossed his shirt on the ground and headed to the bathroom. Settling in the bathtub as he leaned his head backwards, his features seemed to sag under the weight of fatigue.There was a time when he hated darkness but now it was his favourite escape. Rhodes just placed his hand on the edge of the tub when suddenly something moved on his hand. Too immersed in the music he didn't even move an inch while the thing kept moving around. At a close distance from his room, hurried footsteps echoed in the silence. Celeste kept going back and forth in front of her room, she gave a quick look at her wristwatch and biting her lips, she looked towards his room. Nobody was permitted to come upstairs at that time of night but as she was his wife, it was different for her."It's the right time, why is there no sound? Is it because I'

Knock! "Come in."Walking in his office, Celeste took a brief look around. It was her first time going to his office, she couldn't help but scan the surroundings curiously and with an exciting look in her eyes. 'So, this is what the CEO's office looks like, I only saw them in movies until now. It's kinda spacious, a family of four can reside here if they want to...'Unbothered by her presence, Rhodes was seated on his chair facing the window. Celeste glided across the room, her eyes locked on his, "I have brought you lunch.""Put it on the table.""Oh." Celeste did as she was told while checking her surroundings in between. Noticing the bookshelf in the room, she gazed at Rhodes who was heading towards the sofa.'There are so many books, does he love to read books? I wonder what type of books they are...'"Are you leaving?""Yeah, I...""Come here."Though at first, she would get annoyed by his demands but now it looked like a normal thing that she was to follow in her day-to-day lif

"Sir Atlas." Upon seeing her walk towards him, Atlas looked away in annoyance as he murmured, "There we go.""Where is Rhodes?" Celeste asked curiously, her gazes scanning the surroundings."How can I know where he is?""Huh? But I heard that you know where he is.""Who told you that?" A little annoyed, he inquired."That's not important. Anyway, where is he?" Since getting the same attitude from him for the past few months, it was not shocking for her to see him being annoyed most of the time. Celeste gazed at her wristwatch, anticipating his reply."I don't know." Saying so as he took a step forward, Celeste blocked his way. "Sir Atlas..""You heard me, I don't...""We both know the answer, don't we? So, you should just tell me the truth instead of playing childish here." Atlas gazed into the distance and cleared his throat. "Even if you know, what are you going to do about it? He is there for some important b...""That shouldn't be any of your concern, I will take care of it." Sh

Knock! "Come in." Tyler murmured some words mindlessly, his eyes glued to the computer screen. The creaking sound of the door opening reached his ears but he remained unbothered by the unexpected presence of the person in his office. "Put those on the table and take out the blue one. Make a copy of it then bring it to me.""Uhmm... " Hearing the female tone of voice, his gazes shifted at her and he looked a little taken aback. "Miss Lopez, why are you here?""I wanted to see you so..." Xyria answered, standing at a close distance from him."Ahh, I see. What's wrong? Why did you want to see me?""Well, I found a lead in my brother's case. I wanted to talk to... You about it but since... I don't have your number, I couldn't reach you that's why..." As she voiced so, her gazes moved across the room aimlessly.Tyler nodded his head in understanding and added, "That's great. What did you find?"That night, Tyler not only saved her brother from getting attacked but he also let that assass

Sneaking a peek at Rhodes while sitting next to him in the car, she let out a sigh of annoyance. Celeste managed to leave the cafe with him but as they got in the car, he remained silent and waiting for him to say something, she followed his actions as well. "Alright, I can't do this anymore." Celeste took a deep breath as she turned towards him. "Why did you go to the cafe?""To drink coffee."'As the CEO you can just tell anyone to bring it to you, why must you... '"If you wanted to drink coffee, why didn't you tell me? I would have brought it for you.""You are not my servant, why would I tell you about what I want to eat?"Upon hearing him say it with a straight face, she rolled her eyes in utter disbelief. 'Since I met you, if you have done something at an excessive amount then it should be how you kept bossing me around. Yeah, recently you don't do it like the past but it's certainly not because you have gotten gentler... I don't know why I feel like it was not a mere coincide

Staring right into his eyes without even blinking once, Celeste was about to grab his hand but suddenly someone grabbed her hand and pushed her backwards. "You... Who are you? Why are you meddling in?" Nathan blurted out while trying to pull away his hand, looking at the tall man standing in front of him. Surprised by the sudden presence of him, Celeste gazed at the veiny hand and in a swift, her gaze shifted to his back. "Rhodes, why are you here?""Let go of me! Who the hell are you?" Nathan continued getting away from him only in vain. "Look at these two, are they fighting over a woman? Who are they? Do you know them? Wait, isn't he looking a bit too familiar? I feel like I've seen that woman and man somewhere. Especially that sexy vampire-like facing features...""Oh, right. I think he... Right, he is Rhodes Weston. OMG, take photos. I never could imagine that someone as famous as him, I will get to see him one day. Oh my god, someone should hold me. I might faint..."The woman

"Tell me, wanna be my mistress? If you agree, I will take pity on you and take you in." Nathan smirked at her, moving toward the back and his full attention cast on only her. Celeste stood there all silent and too disgusted to say anything. Looking at both of them, the woman pulled his hand shyly and muttered, "Babe."As if he was that one actor who is a tr@sh inside yet the male lead for every woman, Nathan's facial expression changed quickly the moment his gaze shifted to the woman standing behind him. "Yes, babe.""Uhmm, what is she saying? Do you perhaps... Know her?""Mr? No, no. Why would I know her?" Giving Celeste a look of mockery, he voiced in full spirit, "I don't know who she is.""Then, was she disturbing you? Why was she...""Yeah, you... Can say that. She was saying that she likes me and if I wanted to go on a date with her but I told her that I love you and I will never leave you for anyone." As Nathan voiced so, the woman gave Celeste an angry look before pulling his

"His bodyguards are not with him today, he has been alone most of the days.""How about his secretary? Or his lawyer?""They are not with him, it's a bit strange since he never goes out without them. Boss, the target is now heading towards the suburbs. Should we keep following them or take action?""As soon as he enters the tunnel, do it. Make sure to not let any evidence behind.""Yes, boss. Should we kill the woman also? Or do we take her to t..."Upon hearing about a woman involved with him, the man from the other side of the call asked curiously, "What is she doing with him?""She was with him the whole day, they seemed inseparable." The man driving the car replied, following Rhodes at full speed. Not getting any response from his boss, he questioned again, "Boss, what do we do?""Change the plan.""What?""Don't do anything until I order." With that as he hung up, one of the men in the car asked, "What did he say?""We need to step back.""Huh? But we have come this far, why now?

"La la la, mmm." Ring! Pausing on her track, Celeste gazed at the distance where Rhodes was seen sitting alone on a bench. She checked her phone and as the caller's name reflected on her phone screen, she put it back into her pocket.Day turned into night so fast that it felt like a magic. Unlike she thought, Rhodes didn't leave her hand and he didn't even complain that it was a crowded place. In the amusement park, they spent a day full of fun.Ring!Getting annoyed, as she picked up the call her mother's sobs could be heard from this side of the call. "My dear, Celes. Why didn't you pick up my calls? Have you forgotten your mother? Don't you miss me anymore?" Anya cried out.'There she goes. Let's see what drama she wants to play this time.'Celeste stared at the distance and let out a sigh of annoyance, "I was busy with work."For the second time, Anya saw her giving a cold shoulder. Though she didn't say it directly, it was as if she wanted to let her know that she was tired of

* At Night *"Yes, Mr. Weston. I am here to collect the report. Yes, once I get it I will take immediate action... Why is she... Is her brother admitted here?" "What happened?" Rhodes asked him, from the other side of the call."Oh, it's nothing. I just... I will call you back, bye." As soon as he came across her, Tyler stopped on the spot. He made a quick look at the surroundings, trying to not getting seen by her and as she continued walking away, he followed after her. "Yes, Miss. Thank you a lot and please, when he comes back... Tell him that I called. Yes, I will be waiting for you then." Hanging up, Xyria gazed at her phone screen with a sad look on her face. "I have called everyone I could, there's nobody left whom I can ask for help from. Xavi, what do I do now? You are unconscious, when you wake up they will take you back to the jail and I don't want that. I will prevent them from doing it anyhow but... Why there's no way out? There's not much time left... " 'I was right,

"Where... Are we going?" As she asked for his hand, Rhodes hesitantly asked her.The cheerful noises of children running around, adults laughing and screaming reached his ears. Rhodes hated to be in crowded places yet when she asked him this morning that she would like to take him somewhere he followed her without asking where they were going to.Smiling at him, Celeste held his hand. As the bodyguards wanted to follow them, she voiced, "You guys can go do something else, we will manage."Ignoring her command, the bodyguards looped at him as if waiting for him to say something. Celeste bit her lips and pulled the corner of his shirt, "You say something.""Wait for us here.""Yes, Mr. Weston." They said in unison."Let's go, Rhodes. I promise you that you will have a lot of fun." While holding his hand firmly, she smiled at him. "Is it a book fair? Why is it so noisy?" He asked, hiding how uncomfortable he was getting.Taking a look around, Celeste moved some inches away from him but
