In the restroom, Phoebe stared blankly at her phone. His call still hadn't come. Her heart sank with disappointment.

She tried to calm herself, but her mind kept spinning with anxious thoughts. So lost in her worries, she forgot about the two kids waiting outside.

It wasn't until a woman bumped into her that Phoebe snapped back to reality.

Oh no, the kids!

She rushed out of the restroom—only to find their seats empty.

Her heart dropped. Cold sweat soaked her back. She frantically stopped a passerby.

"Excuse me, did you see two kids? A boy and a girl, about this tall—"

No. No. No.

Just as she was on the verge of panic, her phone suddenly rang.

With trembling hands, Phoebe pulled it out and answered without even checking the caller ID.

"Hi, Mom."

The moment she heard Jeremy's voice, Phoebe burst into tears. Her voice choked with emotion. "Where are you?"

"Mom, Amy and I are fine. Don't worry," Jeremy said gently.

"Tell me where you are." Phoebe sniffled, trying to keep her voice steady.

  • Chased By Billionaire After One Night   Be Our Daddy

    The gates of the villa slowly opened as the two children stepped inside, their eyes widening at the spacious living room. A crystal chandelier cast a warm glow from the ceiling, while the marble floor reflected their tiny silhouettes."Uncle, your house is huge!" Amy looked up, her eyes sparkling.Alexander bent down and lifted both children onto the sofa. Amy suddenly frowned. "Uncle, living in such a big house alone must be really lonely."His movements paused. That wave of loneliness from the five lost years of memory suddenly surged in."We'll come visit you often from now on!" Jeremy said earnestly, unconsciously reaching up to touch his still-swollen cheek.Alexander noticed and quickly went upstairs to get the first aid kit. He gently placed Jeremy on his lap and carefully applied the ointment."Does it hurt?"Jeremy shook his head, staring intently at the gentle man in front of him. Amy sat quietly by the side, then suddenly said, "Uncle, today is our fifth birthday.""Your bi

  • Chased By Billionaire After One Night   Prologue-The New CEO

    "Phoebe, pack your things and report to the CEO's office now!" the HR manager, Alvis, commanded.Phoebe, who had been carefully organizing documents at her desk, immediately stopped what she was doing and responded, "Got it, sir!""I mean NOW! Don't keep boss waiting!" Alvis urged. Phoebe didn't dare hesitate any longer and hurriedly stood up to gather her belongings.Ten minutes later, she was on the top floor, her arms full of items.The company had been doing well, but for some reason, it was mysteriously acquired by an unknown corporation last week, and with that, a new boss had taken over.The news had shocked the entire staff, including Phoebe. But what puzzled her even more was how she had inexplicably become the new CEO's secretary.Was she lucky or unlucky?On one hand, her salary had doubled, but on the other, she had suddenly become the target of envy and hostility from the female employees.As she stepped out of the elevator and arrived at the CEO's office door, she knocke

  • Chased By Billionaire After One Night   Are you a virgin?

    Five years ago...Outside a dimly lit, intoxicating bar at night, Phoebe stood with her head lowered, nervously watching the men and women who continuously went in and out of the establishment.It was her first time in a place like this, and the unfamiliar environment already made her feel uneasy. The leering gazes of some of the men nearby only heightened her anxiety, causing her to break out in a cold sweat. She was too scared to even take another step forward."Hey, are you...?" A voice suddenly appeared near her ear, making her heart skip a beat. The man didn't say so explicitly, but the leering look up and down his face said it all.Phoebe timidly raised her head, only to regret coming here the moment she saw the disgusting man standing in front of her. But there was no turning back now.A bitter taste spread in her mouth as she lowered her eyes. Did she even have a choice? She didn't.Her father was still lying in a hospital bed, her brother had accumulated a massive debt due to

  • Chased By Billionaire After One Night   Forbidden

    On a summer night, the city was ablaze with lights, hosting a world-renowned luxurious yacht party.Phoebe stood still by the window like a beautiful statue, not moving an inch.However, her hands at her sides were clenched tightly, her knuckles pale. The sea breeze brushed her face, but all she could feel was a bone-chilling cold. The moonlit night outside was mesmerizing, yet she had no heart to appreciate it.Watching the elite guests move across the yacht's deck, each of them radiated an aura of wealth and prestige. They whispered in low voices, laughing softly, clinking their glasses in elegant toasts.She smiled bitterly. This was the stark difference between the rich and the poor.The world was never fair, and all she could do was use her body to save her family.Raising her eyes to the empty night sky, her heart filled with a deep sadness. She felt utterly lost."Follow me." A deep, magnetic voice came from behind her.Phoebe closed her eyes and took a deep breath, her chest r

    Without warning, darkness engulfed the room, plunging her into a pitch-black world.Power outage?Phoebe's heart clenched, fear and panic consuming her.It felt like a suffocating weight was closing in, making her body tremble uncontrollably.Suddenly, a gust of wind swept past her, and before she could react, a strong arm wrapped tightly around her waist.Her bare back pressed against a firm chest. Even through the fabric of his shirt, she could feel the heat emanating from him.Startled, she let out a cry, "NO..."But the man chuckled darkly, his deep, husky voice breaking the silence of the room. "Don't make a fuss..."His voice was intoxicating, but why did it carry such an overwhelming sense of dominance? The aura of this man was formidable!"You...who are you?" Phoebe mustered the courage to ask, her voice trembling.Though the room was pitch dark, the man's sharp eyes could clearly catch every emotion in her wide, clear eyes—those beautiful eyes, like black pearls, pure and flaw

    Two years later.At the art gallery, the staff bustled through the exhibition halls, meticulously preparing for an upcoming grand solo art show."Phoebe! How's the progress on Curtis' exhibition?" A deep voice asked from the other end of the phone."Everything's ready, just waiting for the gallery to open." Phoebe adjusted the outdated glasses perched on her nose. Her long hair was tied into a neat ponytail, giving her a fresh and elegant appearance.After hanging up, Phoebe carefully examined the paintings on the wall. This exhibition was part of Curtis' nationwide tour, and she was fortunate to have been selected as the temporary tour assistant for this world-renowned artist.During a small exhibition, one of Phoebe's own pieces caught Curtis' eye by chance. He appreciated her unique perspective on art, and that stroke of luck made her his chosen assistant.Phoebe had a natural talent for painting.For the past two years, her goal had been to apply to Valleybrook's top art school.

    Her heart clenched tightly, a wave of fear and panic rushing through her.Curtis quickly extended his arm, pulling her waist close to him, wrapping her in a firm embrace. His heart raced, and Phoebe clung to him like a frightened rabbit, seeking warmth and comfort."Phoebe, don't be scared. I'm here, everything's going to be fine," he whispered, gently stroking her soft hair in a soothing gesture.The car came to an abrupt stop after a series of jolts, skidding to a halt at a sharp corner. Only when Phoebe felt the car come to a safe stop did she slowly open her tightly shut eyes. She was still shaken, her gaze lifting toward the man holding her. A hoarse whisper escaped her lips, "Are we safe?""Yes, we're fine now," Curtis nodded, his gaze soft and reassuring. In this moment, he felt needed by her, a feeling he savored."What just happened? Did we crash?" Merle asked, steadying himself, his voice shaky.Curtis was about to ask the driver what had happened when he noticed that their

    Phoebe sat in the car, anxiously waiting. She kept glancing toward the distance, silently praying that Curitis would return safely.The events of the day were terrifying, and the mysterious people they encountered filled her with fear. The suppressed memories from her past resurfaced, dragging her into a pit of darkness. The unsettling gaze of that man earlier left her deeply uneasy."Merle, do you think someone is targeting Mr. Curitis? Could they be part of a terrorist group?""It's possible...but Phoebe, don't overthink it. He'll be fine. Let's wait here for him." Merle tried to comfort Phoebe, though he, too, was still shaken by what had happened. They could do nothing but wait for Curitis to return—only then would they know what was going on.Suddenly, the sound of an approaching car broke the silence.Phoebe's heart raced as she looked outside—Curitis was back."Did they hurt you?" The group rushed forward, anxious to see if he was okay. Seeing him unharmed, they finally let out

  • Chased By Billionaire After One Night   The Children and Their Father

    At 3 a.m., the villa was wrapped in absolute silence. Alexander stumbled through the front door, the sharp scent of whiskey clinging to his suit.Upstairs, the bedroom door was ajar—like an open wound that refused to heal. He pushed it open. Moonlight slanted through the floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating a bed so untouched it didn't even bear a wrinkle.A dry laugh escaped him.Sliding down the wall, he sat on the floor, the back of his head resting against the cold wallpaper. The alcohol burned in his veins, but it couldn't dull the dull ache spreading through his chest. His fingers absentmindedly traced the old scar on his left abdomen—he should've locked her up five years ago, even if the chains had to be forged from hatred.By the time the pale morning light seeped through the curtains at 5 a.m., Phoebe was already awake. Her hand reached instinctively toward the phone on the pillow beside her—the screen was as clean and silent as glass rinsed by rain."He still hasn't seen i

  • Chased By Billionaire After One Night   The Explanation

    Phoebe stared at the dim screen of her phone, her fingertips unconsciously tracing the cold surface. The unfamiliar female voice on the other end still echoed in her ears, like a thorn lodged in her heart. All these years—even after losing his memory—Alexander had never had another woman by his side. Was it just like at that banquet again, where he'd hired someone to act just to provoke her?The thought made her lips curve involuntarily. Such childish tricks only exposed one thing: he still cared.Her fingers flew across the screen, tapping furiously. Thirty minutes later, she finally finished a long text message that laid bare the entire truth. She read through it again and again, checking every word and sentence, determined that this time, there would be no more misunderstandings. Just as she hit "send," she heard a soft creak at the door.Phoebe looked up to see a small head poking through the gap—Jeremy's. His large dark eyes sparkled in the darkness."Sweetheart?" She immediately

    Phoebe stirred from a haze of sleep, the sunlight filtering through the window making her squint. She reached for her nightstand, fingertips brushing against the cold screen of her phone—3:00 PM.She froze, her mind sluggishly trying to piece things together. Fragments of last night resurfaced: the living room, Alexander's embrace, the warmth of his body, the sound of his breath… And then? How had she ended up back in bed?The answer was obvious. In this villa, no one else would dare touch her.She rubbed her temples in frustration. Everything was exposed now—she'd waited for him all night and fallen asleep in his arms. He must've figured it out.Suddenly, the door burst open.Phoebe looked up. Alexander stood in the doorway, his face thunderously dark."Aren't you going to explain?" His voice was like a blade scraping across glass—cold and sharp.Her heart jumped, panic rising in her chest. "Explain what?"He didn't answer. Instead, he tossed her phone in front of her.Phoebe looked

    Nightfall.Phoebe had been waiting at the office for a long time. Her eyes would flick toward the entrance every few minutes, but Alexander never showed. He hadn't been to the office all day.And his phone? Still unanswered.Staring blankly at her phone screen, Phoebe's heart filled with unease.What happened to him? Why won't he even answer his phone?A creeping sense of anxiety spread through her chest like ink in water.When she finally returned home, Phoebe still held on to hope—maybe Alexander would already be there, waiting.But the house was silent. Empty.Still no sign of him.After a quick shower, she slipped into her pajamas and lay down in bed, but she couldn't settle. She picked up her phone again and dialed his number.Still off.No response.Panic began to bloom. Her mind spiraled with worst-case scenarios. She kept the screen in sight at all times, afraid she might miss a single notification.She even turned her phone's volume to max, hoping, praying it would ring.But

    Alexander watched Phoebe's retreating figure with a faint sense of satisfaction. There was something strangely gratifying about having her follow his orders so obediently.Just then, his phone rang. He glanced at the screen—an unfamiliar number. Frowning, he declined the call without hesitation. He wasn't about to let an irrelevant phone call ruin such a peaceful, cozy morning.But the phone rang again. And again. Persistent.His brows knit tighter with annoyance, but eventually he answered, intending to snap at the caller. Before he could speak, however, a familiar, anxious voice on the other end froze him in place."Alex? Is that you?"He recognized the voice instantly—Hermosa."…Yeah,"he replied flatly.Over the past five years, they'd been like parallel lines—never crossing, never speaking. She hadn't reached out, and he hadn't looked for her either.His memories from that time stopped before

    The morning light had barely filtered through the curtains when Phoebe was stirred awake by a wave of warm, wet kisses.Still groggy, she became vaguely aware of a strange sensation. As her senses sharpened, a jolt of panic shot through her—her clothes were gone, completely stripped off at some point during the night. Worse still, her hand was wrapped firmly around a very specific part of Alexander. Her mind went blank, and she froze in place, unsure what to do."Morning,"Alexander's voice was low and husky, tinged with the lazy rasp of someone freshly awake.Phoebe stared at him, stunned. Morning? she thought. Seriously? Nothing about this is good!Was this man overdosing on testosterone or what? Did he ever think about anything else?Just as she was plotting how to kick him off her, Alexander grabbed her chin, his burning gaze locking onto hers. His tone was commanding, almost domineering."Help me."Phoebe instinctively

    After work, Alexander dropped Phoebe off at home before rushing off to attend a social engagement.It wasn't until midnight that he finally stumbled back, reeking of alcohol. The only light in the living room came from a single dim wall lamp. He loosened his tie, a pounding headache throbbing at his temples. He should've gone straight to bed, but instead, his feet led him—almost involuntarily—to Phoebe's door.He grasped the doorknob and gave it a gentle twist, but it didn't budge.Locked.A flicker of irritation passed through Alexander. She actually locked the door? Was she hiding from him?A cold smile tugged at his lips. He had only wanted to hold her tonight, to ease the exhaustion clinging to his bones. But her resistance only ignited his need to conquer.Inside the room, Phoebe hid under her blanket, her heart pounding wildly in her chest.After a long while, when no sound came from the other side of the door, she f
