Charming the CEO Chapter 11: Plan 1
As I stepped into Ethan's mother's room, a sense of dread washed over me. She had just returned from the hospital, and I could see that she was still weak and frail. Ethan had summoned me here, and I had a feeling that it wasn't going to be good news.My gut feeling was already telling me that another bad thing was about to happen in my life.As soon as I entered, Ethan's mom greeted me with an ominous phrase. "Luna, you're the reason I almost died," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. The weight of guilt settled on my shoulders.Yes, I was partially responsible for Ethan's mother falling earlier. But that didn't mean that everything was my fault. I didn't agree with that, but my throat constricted because I knew that Ethan would do bad things to me if I fought his mother again.Ethan's mother looked weak, as if all her strength had been drained. It was as if she was dying from the previous fall. She looked at my tail and then at Ethan's tail."Ethan, go outside first. I want

Lying in bed, the moonlight filtering in through the window cast a soft glow on the room. But sleep eluded me. My mind was a whirlwind of thoughts, all centered around one thing - I had to leave. I couldn't take anything with me. I had to leave everything behind.I knew that if I stayed in that house any longer, my sanity would slip away. "Tonight," I whispered to myself, "I'm going to run away from this house."My body seemed to rebel against the thought of staying any longer, urging me to leave immediately. Carefully, I made my way to the door, my heart pounding in my chest. I had to be quiet. I couldn't let anyone see me.But just as I was about to open the door, I heard a shout from inside. "There's a burglar! Help!" It was Ethan's mother.I froze, my heart racing. I hadn't expected such a small sound to alert her. "Damn," I thought to myself, "what kind of response is that?""Ethan, there's a burglar in our house!" she shouted again. I could hear footsteps approaching. It was Eth

I'm sitting in front of my office, trying to calm my racing heart. The cool early morning air is refreshing, and I take a deep breath. Eddie stands beside me, looking hesitant. He clears his throat twice before finally speaking."Hey, Luna. Do you want to go for a walk? To clear your head."I nod, still in shock from what happened earlier. I ran away from Ethan's house, and he chased me all the way to this office. The sun wasn't even up yet, but the chase was already intense. And then there was Eddie, who helped me by beating Ethan up and chasing him away. Everything is happening so fast that I can't catch my breath."How about it?" Eddie asks again, and I hesitate for a moment before nodding."Walk?" I ask, and Eddie nods.I'm not sure if I'm ready to face the outside world, but I know that my mind is swirling with a million different thoughts. Maybe a walk will do me some good. Eddie smiles in response, and we start walking together along the side of the big highway.There aren't ma

I was taking in the breathtaking view from the window of my luxurious apartment, a gift from Eddie. The morning hustle and bustle below was a sight to behold as people started their day, rushing to work or dropping off their kids at school. A sense of peace washed over me as I watched the world go by, a feeling I hadn't experienced in a long time.After leaving my in-laws' house, I finally found peace.My phone buzzed with a new notification, and I saw that Eddie had transferred $20,000 to my account. My eyes widened in surprise. That was more than enough for me to live on for a few months, especially since Eddie had already paid for the apartment in full. I only had to pay the mandatory monthly rent.I couldn't help but feel guilty for taking advantage of Eddie's generosity, even though I had only known him for a short time.Just as I was about to put my phone away, I thought I heard a voice coming from the front door. I walked over and opened it, expecting to see the cleaning lady o

I was in total disbelief as I watched Eddie shout at the cell phone repair shop clerk. The clerk looked just as shocked as I felt. This wasn't the calm and collected Eddie I was used to."What's happening, Eddie?" I asked, trying to make sense of the situation."This guy's trying to hack into your phone!" Eddie exclaimed, pointing at the officer.I was confused. "What do you mean?" I asked Eddie. All I saw was my old cell phone connected to some equipment I didn't recognize."It's a device to test millions of number combinations to unlock your phone," Eddie explained.It all made sense now. My phone had a password, a number pin. I looked at the repairman.The officer looked frightened. "I was just following orders," he stammered. "Someone asked me to try to access this phone.""Is this phone yours?" the man asked me and Eddie, and we both nodded.I could see the man looked a little guilty, even though I was pretty sure he had no ill intentions."The man and woman who came in earlier c

Seated in my plush apartment, bathed in the gentle light of ambient lighting, I was enjoying my surroundings. I could almost taste the aroma of my favorite dish—a hearty beef bourguignon—as it drifted through the air. Savoring the juicy meat and rich sauce, I bit into it. My phone rang, snapping me out of my reverie, right as I was about to eat another bite. It was Eddie, I noticed when I quickly glanced at the screen."Hey Luna, I've got a package of documents for you," he said with a low and serious voice. "What is it?" I inquired, my interest aroused. "Apparently, it's from the police for the investigation process," replied Eddie. I assumed Ethan had probably called the cops. Knowing that our strategy was succeeding gave me an overwhelming feeling of contentment. Eddie and I devised a scheme to exonerate me from a false accusation and apprehend the true perpetrator. "I'll be dropping by your place soon," Eddie announced. I consented and bid him farewell. After what seemed lik

I saw Eddie staring at the empty plate of beef bourguignon that I had devoured earlier. The rich aroma of the dish still lingered in the air, and I could almost taste the tender beef and savory sauce on my tongue. Eddie looked at me with a small smile and said, "It's good to see you enjoying life again, Luna."I blushed at his words and quickly changed the subject. "Have you had breakfast yet, Eddie?" I asked, trying to distract him from my embarrassment.Eddie shook his head and then turned to me with a serious expression. "Luna, we need to get ready. I got a police summons for you this morning. If you don't show up, they can come and get you by force."My heart sank at his words. Eddie must have noticed the fear in my eyes because he quickly reassured me. "Don't worry, I've contacted a lawyer to help you. I'll introduce you to him later."I nodded and agreed, trying to hide my nervousness. Eddie then told me to take a shower and get ready. I headed to the bathroom, feeling strangely

The police station loomed large in front of me, its imposing structure exuding an air of oppression. The smell of stale coffee and sweat hung heavy in the air, making my stomach churn. I had always known that many injustices began within these walls, and although I didn't think all cops were bad, there were certainly some individuals whose crimes were particularly egregious.As I approached the entrance, my heart pounding in my chest, I was stunned to see a man about Eddie's age who was just as handsome. He was dressed in a sharp suit, the fabric of his jacket shimmering slightly in the fluorescent light. His dark hair was perfectly coiffed, not a strand out of place, and he exuded an air of confidence that was impossible to ignore.The man caught my eye and smiled, heading straight towards me. I felt a jolt of recognition, but I couldn't quite place him. His eyes were a piercing blue, and they seemed to see right through me."Luna, this is Gery," Eddie said, extending his hand to the

The sun was shining brightly, casting a warm glow over the pristine white sand of the private island. Luna stood in front of the full-length mirror, admiring her reflection. She had never felt more beautiful in her life. The white lace wedding dress hugged her figure perfectly, accentuating her curves and making her feel like a princess.

Charming the CEO Chapter 62: Ethan Final
Ethan sat in the corner of his small, dingy cell, hunched over a bowl of flavorless rice porridge. He had been in this Thai prison for what felt like an eternity, and the bland food was starting to take its toll on him. He had vomited several times already, unable to stomach the tasteless mush.Just as he was forcing himself to take another bite, the sound of footsteps echoed down the hallway. Ethan's heart raced as the prison warden appeared in front of his cell. The man's stern expression told Ethan all he needed to know. His execution date had been set.Ethan felt the bile rise in his throat as the warden informed him that he had three months left to live. He couldn't believe it. He had always known that he was wrong, that he was an asshole. But he had never truly faced the consequences of his actions until now.Desperate, Ethan tried to bribe the warden with the little money he had left. But the man just laughed in his face. "You think your money can buy you a way out of this?" he
Charming the CEO Chapter 61: Auction
Eddie was already dressed in a tailored suit, his hair slicked back and a determined look in his eyes as he paced back and forth in the hotel room. Luna had just woken up, her hair tousled and her eyes groggy. She rubbed the sleep from her eyes and sat up in bed, taking in Eddie's serious demeanor."What's going on?" she asked, her voice still thick with sleep.Eddie stopped pacing and turned to face her. "We need to prepare before we go to the auction," he said, his tone grave.Luna's eyes widened in understanding. "Right, the auction," she said, throwing off the covers and swinging her legs over the side of the bed.Eddie nodded. "I've made arrangements for us to go to a clothing store. It's one of the best in Paris and they have branches all over Europe. It's also my store," he added with a small smile.Luna raised an eyebrow. "Your store?" she asked, surprised.Eddie nodded. "One of many businesses I own. I figured it would be the perfect place to find you something to wear to the

Luna and Eddie sat on a bench near the police station, the cool evening breeze rustling the leaves around them. Eddie's eyes were fixed on the station, his mind racing with thoughts. Luna, on the other hand, was deep in thought, trying to piece together the mystery of why Lyra Thomson was working with the other, evil Lyra.Eddie turned to Luna, "Have you figured out what Lyra's plan is? What do you think she's going to do now?"Luna looked up, her eyes meeting Eddie's. "I think I have an idea. She took my necklace and ring, right? Maybe she's planning on selling them."Eddie's eyes widened in surprise. "That's a smart deduction, Luna.""You are right about that. And not only that, that Lyra has other plans regarding the jewelry she stole.""Yeah, but that's the jewelry we gave her..." Luna said quietly with guilt but Eddie gave a small laugh."Never mind that, it was our last wish to solve your problem"Luna smiled weakly. "We have to save her, Eddie. We can't let her get mixed up in
Charming the CEO Chapter 59: Evil Lyra
Eddie's heart raced as he quickly assessed the situation. Fifteen men had surrounded him and Luna, their eyes filled with malice. He could see the fear in Luna's eyes, but he knew he couldn't let it show. He had to protect her.Despite Eddie having taken down several people earlier, the thugs remained undeterred and showed no signs of fear.He took a deep breath and focused, his training kicking in. He knew he couldn't take on all fifteen men at once, but he could handle a few at a time. He scanned the group, looking for the weakest link.Two men stepped forward, their fists clenched. Eddie knew they were the ones he had to take down first. He braced himself, ready for the attack.The first man lunged at him, but Eddie was quick on his feet. He sidestepped the attack and delivered a swift kick to the man's ribs, sending him sprawling to the ground.The second man came at him with a roar, but Eddie was ready. He used his judo training to flip the man over his shoulder, slamming him int

Luna sank deeper into the bubbling jacuzzi, letting the warm water soothe her tired muscles. The private island was a paradise, and Ethan's house was the perfect getaway. She closed her eyes and let out a content sigh, feeling the stress of the past few weeks melt away.This is the best way to pamper yourself after the nightmare Luna had last night.After her bath, Luna wrapped herself in a fluffy towel and made her way to her room. She noticed a missed call on her phone from a number she didn't recognize. Curious, she dialed it back and waited for the other person to pick up.The voice on the other end was hysterical, sobbing uncontrollably. It took Luna several moments to realize it was Lyra Thomson, the owner of the flower shop she had visited with Eddie in the past."Lyra, what's wrong? What happened?" Luna asked, her heart racing.It took several minutes for Lyra to calm down enough to speak coherently. When she finally did, her words sent a chill down Luna's spine."It's Emily.
Charming the CEO Chapter 57: Eddie's Mother
The sun was setting, casting a warm golden hue over the pristine beach of Eddie's family's private island. Luna sat under a large umbrella, her toes digging into the soft sand as she watched the waves gently lap against the shore. She had always loved the ocean, its vastness and mystery a source of endless fascination for her.Luna's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of footsteps approaching. She turned to see Eddie's mother, a kind-faced woman with a gentle smile, making her way towards her. Luna stood up to greet her, feeling a little nervous. She had always been intimidated by Eddie's mother, who seemed to carry an air of authority and wisdom about her."Hello, Luna," Eddie's mother said, her voice warm and inviting. "I hope you're enjoying your time on the island.""Yes, thank you," Luna replied, smiling politely. "It's beautiful here."Eddie's mother took a seat next to Luna under the umbrella, her eyes scanning the horizon. They sat in silence for a moment, the sound of the

She had long awaited this moment on the private island owned by Eddie's family.The night sky was a canvas of twinkling stars, and the air was filled with a sense of tranquility. Eddie and Luna stood on the balcony of the big house on Eddie's family's private island, gazing up at the heavens. Eddie was adjusting the large telescope, while Luna waited patiently by his side.After all the trouble with Luna before, Eddie was relieved that they could finally relax and enjoy each other's company. He glanced over at Luna, who was looking up at the stars with a sense of wonder in her eyes. Eddie couldn't help but feel a sense of affection for her."There, it's all set up," Eddie said, stepping back from the telescope. "Take a look."Luna eagerly approached the telescope and peered through the eyepiece. She gasped as she saw the stars up close, their light twinkling brighter than ever bef
