Chased By My Ex's Billionaire Boss Code Red: Melanie’s Move
“When do you want the movement procedure to start?” the medical director asks Caleb“As soon as you can order the hospital to be on total lockdown” Caleb answers him“I am afraid that we can’t be on total lockdown because this is a hospital and there are patients in need of immediate medical attention coming in all the time.”“If not total lockdown, then order a partial lockdown…I just need the number of guests in the hospital to be reduced a great deal” he expresses“Especially those nasty reporters” he adds“Give me a few minutes to instruct someone trustworthy to get started on the lockdown and the movement procedure started,” he tells Caleb“I will also need to go to Melanie’s current room to inform the head of security there of the recent development,” he informs the medical director and he nods in approval.“While you are at it, can you instruct your hospital security to evacuate every single guest within the perimeter of the floor that Melanie is on for at least twenty minutes

Caleb did not expect to be impressed by how the medical director handled things, but he was. The moving was done successfully, and Melanie’s location was not compromised the second time.In the 30 minutes that the medical director promised the lockdown would last, it started and ended successfully. Even though the hospital was on lockdown, the medical director made preparations for patients to be brought in through the emergency entrance, which was to be used in case of fire outbreaks or any other form of emergency in the hospital.In exactly 20 minutes, Ryan got back to Melanie’s former room and Caleb took him to her new room with strict instructions that he must remain in the waiting area except when he authorizes him to leave, and he agrees and Caleb left the last floor and comes back to inform his team that he is away on a mission that he appointed him.He leaves the last floor and comes back to the fifth floor to inform the team leader for group 1 and group 2 to resume their duti

“Put the project with the Sinclairs on hold” Caleb sends Alistair a text that he sees last immediately and he calls him.“What am I supposed to tell Alex Sinclair?” Alistair asks him, instead of going back to talk about where their last conversation ended.“You don't have to tell him anything,” he answers his friend as if what he is asking him to do is as simple as ABC.“How do you expect me to do that when I am the one here and you are in Pearl” Alistair raises an alarm.“You avoid him and if he asks you any question, you tell him to wait for me to come back so that I can handle everything” Caleb answers him.“Are you for real? You don't even know when you are coming back here” Alistair scoffs.“The doctor told me that he will observe Melanie for 3 to 5 days after which he will discharge her if she doesn't have any complications from the surgery, and then I will be back” Caleb informs Alistair.“But you can't be certain that the doctor will not find any complications after cross-exam

Shortly after Ethan Sinclair finishes his diplomatic conversation with Caleb Wellington, he goes downstairs to find the receptionist who exposed Melanie’s personal information online and a nurse tells him that she is currently upstairs, attending her disciplinary hearing, so he hangs around the hospital because he will rather hear from the person that posted the news than rely on the people that don’t know anything about the news.The receptionist returns after he waits for her for fifteen minutes, but when she returns, she returns with a box and starts packing up her things. The hospital is announced to be on a permanent lockdown, effective immediately.The hospital sweeps in to start seeing people out of the hospital, so he waits for her outside before ordering his driver to invite her over, away from all the nosy reporters and he does exactly as he is told, bringing her over in no time.“What exactly happened to Melanie,” Ethan Sinclair asks her“I apologize but I won't be able to s

He can’t wait to see Melanie and ensure she is okay. The hours tick by slowly, with Ryan periodically checking his watch and gazing out the window at the vast expanse of clouds below.Finally, the pilot's voice comes over the intercom, announcing their descent into Pearl Coast, so Ryan gathers his belongings and prepares for landing.

The prospect of returning to Orion lifts her spirits. Melanie has no idea of what is happening in the outside world because apart from Caleb, the two nurses who know she is on the 18th floor, she has not seen anyone else.The people in the room never mentioned anything about what had been happening online to her, and neither did anybody mention to her that Ryan had come all the way from Orion to see her."Ready to go home?" Caleb asks as he assists her into a wheelchair, carefully wrapping her injured arm and smiling."More than ready." Melanie nods, her eyes shining.

Location: Inside the private jet, in transit to Blackwood, Orion Caleb receives a phone call from his mom because she is part of his favorite contacts, which in turn means that she can bypass his DND, so he picks up the honey wondering why his mom is calling him because he always does the calling and she never calls him because she knows that he is always busy. "Caleb, it's Aunt Rachel," his aunt's voice trembles on the other end, and that makes him step away from Melanie, excusing himself to take the call. "Benjamin's in trouble. He's been kidnapped." His expression changes from calm to concerned as he listens and his grip on the phone tightens. His younger brother, Benjamin, is in his early twenties and he is about to graduate from university. "What do you mean by he’s been kidnapped?" Caleb demands. "We received a ransom demand an hour ago. They're asking for $5 million in exchange for Benjamin's safe return." Rachel’s voice cracks.

“Is it just me? Or does it really feel like Aiden is struggling to decide if he wants to like me or not?” Melanie points out after Aiden walks away from the table and Caleb shoots her a strange look. “What is there to decide? You either like someone or you don’t like them, there shouldn’t be any in between,” Caleb points out but Melanie shakes her head because she doesn’t agree with him. “So what is there to plan now? Are we keeping him or a we letting him go back to his mom where he truly belongs? Melanie asks and Caleb pauses to think. “You really want him here, don’t you?” She paints out and he shakes his head. “I honestly don't know,” Caleb answers her. “If you don’t know if you want him in your life or not, why can’t you just settle without a fight?” Melanie asks him. “Settling without a fight is way too easy for her, and I am guessing that she must be expecting that, but when my lawyers are done gathering the evidence of how poorly she raised him,” Caleb informs “ You thi

After Melanie ends the call with Kalinin and Ryan, she makes her way out of Caleb’s inhouse office and she heads straight to his room where she realizes that the room looks and feels different to what she is used to, but she isn’t able to pace it till she sees the note on the bed.“Good morning sunshine, you mentioned that you wanted your thinks moved out of your room, so I supervised them moving your things from your room to mine… once again, I am sorry for speaking to you the way I did yesterday,” Caleb apologizes again and she walks into his walk-in closet to see that a space has been created for her in the room.She exits the walk-in closet for the bathroom and she realizes that all the toiletries on her own side of the bathroom are composed of the toiletries that she was into when she was staying with him, just that everything is brand new.“I have no idea the products that you used now, but these were the ones that were in your bathroom, so I just asked him to have new ones sent
Chased By My Ex's Billionaire Boss The Road to Healing
The next morning, Melanie slowly opens her eyes, groggily taking in her surroundings. She is still in Caleb’s office, sitting in his chair, but as she looks down, she notices her body is covered with a soft, plush blanket.“Could it have been one of the stewards that needed to clean up?” she mutters, feeling a sense of surprise and wonder, trying to recall how the blanket got there because she didn’t remember covering herself before she went to sleep, and she is certain that she didn’t bring a blanket with her to the office the previous night.As she lifts the blanket, she sees that it is one of Caleb’s because it has his distinct monogram, embodied on the corner. A faint smile crosses her lips as she realizes that Caleb must have covered her with the blanket while she was asleep, and her eyes scan the room, searching for any signs of Caleb, but he is nowhere to be found. She wonders if he went back to his room to sleep or left for the important meeting that he mentioned the previous

“Can I be brutally honest with you?” Melanie speaks up after a while, and Caleb raises sb eyebrow at her, curious about what she has to say. “I have no idea about what the hell I am doing and I don't think I have ever lost anyone close to me to be able to grieve properly…in short the closest thing that I have lost was my puppy” Melanie informs him. “Do you want to go upstairs to get the full gist?” Melanie asks him and he considers for a moment.“Not exactly,” He answers her“I have an important meeting at work tomorrow and I really need to get some sleep,” Caleb excuses.“Can't Alistair stand in for you at the meeting, as usual? Or doesn’t he know that you lost your daughter?” Melanie asks him multiple questions.“I haven’t told anybody on my side, not even my mom … so no, he doesn’t know and even if he does, there is no way he can stand in for me because the only thing he has been used to doing over the years is running the night club with me, so I left him to take care of the nig

As Melanie steps out of the hospital ward, she is met with the bright hospital light that seems to mock her somber mood, and she squints her eyes, scanning the area to see if Caleb eventually changed his mind and decided to take one last look at his daughter, till her eyes land on Ryan who is relaxing on the wall, waiting for her.Ryan’s face is etched in concern as he watches Melanie approach him. He can see the pain and grief, written all over her face, and his heart goes out to her as he envelopes her in a warm hug.“Hey babes, I’m so sorry about Dawn…I can only imagine how you must be feeling,” Ryan says, his voice soft and gentle.“Funny enough, I was imagining what it was going to look or feel like to be one of those mothers who found anything that their children did to be cute, but now I just feel so lost,” Melanie scoffs, her eyes welling up with tears that she blinks back.“I’m here for you, Mel…what can I do to help?”Ryan nods sympathetically and Melanie takes a deep breath.

The drive to the hospital was a tense and uncomfortable one, with Caleb and Ryan barely exchanging a word. The air is thick with animosity, and the silence between them is palpable. Caleb is still fuming from their earlier conversation, and even though Ryan agreed for him to drive his car, it doesn’t make Caleb feel any better, judging from the way he gripped the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles white with tension. Ryan seated beside him, stared out of the window, his eyes fixed on the passing scenery because he thought that it would make things less awkward, but as they drove, the only sound was the hum of the engine and the occasional beep of the car horn. The tension between them was so thick that it seemed to have a life of its own. Despite their mutual dislike for each other, they both knew that they had to put their differences aside for the sake of Dawn. They drove in silence, each listening in their thoughts, as they navigated the bustling streets. As they approached
