Chasing My Replaced Bride Chapter 12
The next day when Elaine entered the office and barely settled on her seat, Rivan, the PA of the CEO made an appearance there. "Elaine, sir is expecting you with your team." With his words delivered, Rivan was about to leave but Elaine stopped him, "Rivan, what is happening?" She had met with the CEO very few times because he only called heads of departments in his office and no other employees. If he called for them, then it meant something unusual was waiting for them. He was polite but very rigid at times. The staff generally got scared of the way he talked. Because he talked in a very serious tone and that tone explicated that whatever he said or ordered was an ultimatum and it wasn't going to be changed anyway. Rivan replied, "I am not sure. Be quick, okay?" Elaine turned to the other members of the marketing department and spoke up, "Well, as you all heard already, Sir is calling. Let's go." Jenny, one of her team members was already beside her as she uttered in a whisper,

Sam stood at the entrance of the gym, eyes wandering to find Cannon. When he got the sight of Cannon working on the punching bag, he reached there with long strides. He thought Cannon had already given up getting Elaine's rude behavior and thought of knocking some sense into him, "What's wrong with you, Cannon? What are you doing? After whatever you have done to Elaine, how can you expect her to forgive you this easily? You can't give up. Think about.." Cannon held the punching bag and gave Sam a disbelieving look, "Who told you I am giving up? I am not." Sam let out a sigh being relieved but confessed anyway, "Thank god. You came back here without me just after talking to Elaine. So I thought.. Anyways, aren't you angry with Elaine?" Cannon sat on the floor, "No. Elaine isn't wrong in her place, Sam. After making her go through all this, I can't expect her to forgive me easily. I know it." Sam nodded at him as he sat beside him, "I tried to convince her but.." Cannon nodded thou

Hearing the sound of the doorbell at this time of night, Elaine knew it was Cannon there, behind the door as no one else visited her this time. But she didn't get herself to answer it. She was still angry at him for showing up at her work place and making her work on his project. She just looked beside her. Ryan was peacefully sleeping snuggling to her.A sweet smile was lingering on his lips. Smiling back, she kissed on his forehead only to get Ryan showing little dimples on his cheek as his smile broadened which was enough to vanish the smile from Elaine's face.Elaine tossed on the bed being restless when Ryan did the same turning to other side after a while.Though she was happy a little earlier with Cassandra for not answering the door, now it got bothering her.Elaine checked the time. It was 10 minutes past 10. Half an hour passed already but there wasn't a sound of doorbell ringing again.He must have left by now. Elaine thought to herself but got out of the warmth of the comf

It was still dark outside when Sam woke up from sleep feeling thirsty. Sleepily, he made his way to the kitchen to satisfy his thirst.After getting done when he was about to go back to his room, his eyes caught the sight of Cannon. He was sitting on the couch in the living room. His head rested against it and his eyes were closed.Being confused, he walked to him. Sam was totally awakened when he reached Cannon. Even in sleep, Cannon looked sad. Last night he didn't get back to the penthouse with Sam.Sam could feel nothing resolved between Elaine and Cannon seeing Cannon's face. He hesitated for a moment to call him thinking him asleep.Proving him wrong, Cannon opened his eyes the next moment and sat straight. Seeing him standing there, he spoke up softly, "Why are you awake now?" He looked nothing like waking up from sleep or something.Sam sat beside him and ignoring his question, he asked him, "What happened?"Cannon kept silent for a long time but Sam remained persistent.

"I love you, Mrs. Elaine Henderson."Double of these three words. They were like daggers flying to her chest.Three words that Elaine had longed to hear from Cannon back then. That he loved her and acknowledged her as his wife. Two things, he never did. Not even in his facade. But now that he finally said them, these words had lost all their meaning to her. And she wasn't sure if he was even serious or he was just saying all these without meaning it.Elaine wondered. Was saying 'I love you' to someone whom you didn't really love that easy? Would anyone do it just to get.."Elaine?" Cannon softly uttered her name pulling her out of her thoughts as he stared at her, realizing how emotionally raw and vulnerable he felt at that moment."I thought people get to be called like that after getting married or before that and here for me, it's happening after getting divorced only. Should I be happy for this?""Elaine, please. We aren't divorced. We are..""Right. We aren't divorced. Because fo

Cassandra tried to say something but didn't at last and waited for Ryan to react instead. Ryan saw the ice cream, excited to no end, and looked at the person offering all these to him.His reaction got changed to a confused one as he stared at Cannon for a few moments.Cannon spoke up, tears rolling down as his vision cleared, "Which one is your favorite?"Ryan pointed at the chocolate one after looking at the ice cream scoops and examining the color."Take it." Cannon uttered softly as he pointed at that. Ryan hesitated for a few moments but then took it.Like Cannon's face reminded Ryan of something, he asked him with excitement flashing his face, "Is it ready now?"Cannon gave him a confused look and uttered, "What, baby?" much to Ryan's disappointment. He uttered sadly, "My room!"Cannon was perplexed at the information that his son knew his plan, "How did you get to know?"Cassandra heard them but remained silent. Looking at Ryan's sad face, he pleaded, forgetting his inquiry for

Elaine wasn't back yet when Cassandra got back home with Ryan. She was busy in her work in office. It was late in the evening when she got back. She was pleasantly listening to Ryan's ranting about his time at the park. Cassandra tried to make up a story when she heard Ryan talking to Elaine about his new good friend and Elaine gave her a questioning look. But by the end of Ryan's ranting, Elaine didn’t pay much attention to that new friend of his, seeing her so happy son. As she was tired working all day, keeping eyes glued to the laptop screen to plan the marketing strategy, she called it a day earlier than usual. Ryan slept peacefully beside her but Elaine got awaken up at some point of the night dreaming about her elevator time with Cannon. His phone calls, texts and words from earlier kept distracting her that's the reason she took time to complete her work and thus she came back home late today. She couldn’t allow her to get into his words. Sincere or not, Cannon was late f

The Next day In the morning after getting Ryan to freshen up, Elaine took him to the dining table to get him breakfast. Cassandra joined them there after a few minutes. Elaine again tried to remind Cassandra but she cut her off, "It won't happen again." Nodding at her and she turned to Ryan who was still taking his cereal while ranting about something. Elaine spoke up softly as she went near him, "Ryan, Mom is leaving, baby. I will try to come back early. Now, don't stress out Cassie. Be good. okay?" Ryan looked at her and smiled sweetly, "I am a good boy." "Of course, you are. You are my son." Elaine said as she kissed his cheek, "Bye, baby." As she made her way out, Ryan waved at her, "Bye bye, Mom." Smilingly, she waved back and nodded at Cassandra as she got out of the house. Completing Cannon's project as early as possible was her only goal now. But just after she settled down and barely opened her laptop to start her work, Rivan reached there. "Elaine, Sir is calling yo

Two Years LaterThe rays of sun flickered through the curtains, warmth glided over her skin, drawing Elaine out of sleep land. She squinted her eyes to block the sun from directly hitting her irises. Grunting, she turned over, her hand searching for Cannon, keeping eyes still shut.Knitting her brows, she opened her eyes only to the other half of the bed to be empty.Confused as she sat up. Where did he go this early in the morning! Elaine thought for a moment only to remember Cannon was out of town for a meeting.Well, he would be back today. Elaine thought to herself as she pulled herself out of the warmth of the comforter. She took a glance at the time which was seven past thirty in the morning already.I slept this long! Groaning, she was about to rush to see if Ryan was awake but then she had to make her way to the washroom first as a sudden and intense urge to throw up rose up to her throat.Leaning over the toilet, she cleared her stomach of the remaining of the last night's di

Though Cannon planned just to drop Elaine and Ryan at home and leave for the office from there itself, Ryan asked him to lift him in his arms and took him to his nursery first. Smiling at him, Cannon did as he was asked but they stopped at the entrance as Ryan called aloud, "Uncle Aiden?"Following his gaze, Cannon and Elaine found Aiden sitting in the living room. Aiden smiled seeing Ryan as he stood up but his smile faded away when he caught the sight of Elaine staring at him.Ryan said to Cannon to settle him down and as soon as he was down, he ran to Aiden. Getting near, he spoke up, "You came to meet me?"Aiden nodded at him with a little bit of smile but his eyes were all teary at the words of Ryan. It was clear from his voice he was happy with him though Aiden couldn’t get why.He was never that fond of children that much but something in Ryan was compelling him to feel otherwise. Getting the similar gesture from Ryan wasn't something, he was expecting though. Ryan held his ha

Hina held it within until she couldn't anymore. She kept the fork down and spoke up, trying to look all normal, "I am done. Elaine, I should head back to the boutique now. You don't need to go back, go home from here."She took a glance at Sam who didn't seem to care anyway and was keeping himself busy with his food. Before Elaine could say something, Hina was already walking away.Ryan would have shouted if he wasn't busy with his ice cream.Cannon frowned, "What happened to her all of a sudden?"Elaine also seemed to be equally confused and turned to Sam. Before she could throw any question to Sam, his phone rang off. Taking the call, Sam answered in a calm voice, "Okay. We are on our way." and then turned to Cannon, "We have a meeting in an hour."Cannon nodded at him and they finished their lunch. Paying the bill as Cannon walked ahead with Ryan in his arms, Elaine turned to Sam, "Sam, what's going on?"Sam turned to her being confused but one look at her and Sam knew what she was

Keeping Elaine's head gently on the pillow, careful not to disturb her sleep, Cannon stared at her peacefully sleeping face for a while and then kissed her forehead.With a blissful smile, Cannon got down from the bed and pulled the comforter properly on her.After getting freshen up, he walked out of his room. His gaze caught the sight of Hina and Cassandra downstairs. Thinking Ryan was still sleeping, he made his way to the guest room to check on him.As he thought, Ryan was still sleeping, flat on his stomach, his one hand was tightly holding the plush toy. Just when he tried to tuck his leg under the blanket, Ryan stirred in his sleep and opened his eyes widely.He turned and when his eyes fell on Cannon, he smiled at him, "Dad?"Cannon smiled as well as he answered, "Good morning, baby."Ryan just smiled at him and the next thing, his eyes searched for his Mom all around the room but not finding her beside his bed like always, his smile faded away. He again turned to Cannon, "Mom

It was getting late at night but Elaine and Cannon were all awake holding each other quite tightly. Both of them knew if they really got to have some sleep, it would have been a peaceful sleep of their life like never before but sleep remained far away from their eyes no matter how tired they were after spending a hectic day. When Elaine felt there was no sleep tonight and Cannon wasn't going to say anything either, she thought of asking the question that terrified her that time. She wasn't sure if she would like his response, she had to clarify it. She uttered in a lower voice, "Cannon?" Cannon replied softly, "Hmm?" "Did yo..you really take me as Evana that night?" Elaine hesitantly voiced out as she got mentally preparing herself for his answer. It didn't take much time for Cannon to understand what Elaine was talking about but he was confused about how did Evana get into their conversation! Cannon uttered honestly, "I was drugged, Elaine. I still couldn't remember tha

The house was full of life with Ryan running around, laughing, breaking things and all. Too much for his excitement, Cannon made his nursery in one of the room there, like it was in his penthouse.He wanted to build it by himself like before but Elaine didn't let him to do it seeing his struggle to set the screw properly. In between, he took one hit of the hammer on his hand and the next thing, he was pulled away from all of it.Elaine said in a calm tone, "Get healed first. You can make him things later." leaving no place for him to say otherwise.Giving it a thought, Cannon along with Elaine took Ryan out and let him choose his crib, rocking chair, lights and so many of moon and star things as per his demands.Mary was there at Cannon's place for almost all the time. She would have started living there with them if it wasn't for Aiden.After planning the accident of Cannon years back, his all evil works got exposed to Ethan. And the next thing Ethan removed Aiden from his business a

Elaine was trying to talk to Damien but getting the reason behind it, he was trying to postpone their talk though he knew it was inevitable.

In the penthouse, all of them were gathered in the living room with their eyes at the entrance, restless as they waited for Cannon to make an appearance there.Ryan was asking about his dad every few minutes as he didn't find Cannon in bed like he was seeing since he had been here."Dad is out for some work, baby. He will be home soon, okay?"Though he nodded, still he kept doing the same thing for times going to everyone. When Cannon made it to be back home, it was just noon. Just a glance of him and then everyone got relaxed and let out a breath in relief. With a smile, Cannon reached them but before he could say something, Ryan hugged his leg as he squealed in joy, "Dad."Cannon bent down a little and took him in his arms, "Yes, baby."Everyone stared at them with a smile as Ryan kept saying something. Cannon figured out some words from his long rant and that much was enough for him to understand what was Ryan asking from him.He wanted to go to the park and Cannon happily agreed
Chasing My Replaced Bride Chapter 36
As soon as Cannon entered the study, Ethan spoke up, "What are you thinking of doing? Have you gone crazy?" "I am doing exactly what my duty is." Cannon stood firmly, "I am not going to go back on my words." Getting Cannon's determination in his words, Ethan offered, "Okay. Let me handle it then." "No need. I will do what I am supposed to do. You don't have to worry." Completing his say, Cannon was about to leave but Ethan stopped him, "Cannon, it's about that bas.. I mean crazy Kings. Anything can happen." Cannon gave him a side glance, "So? Are you worrying for me right now?" not believing his father was finally worrying for him now only after he had survived death for the second time. Really! "Cannon, please." Ethan tried to make him understand but he didn't give him the chance, "It's okay. I can manage it." and left the study and walked to his room, somewhat angry at Sam. Why did he have to talk to Ethan about all this? He could feel if Hunter was behind the bars now, it
