Claiming the Ruthless CEO Andrei's new friend
RIX’s P.O.V.I don’t know what happened last night. But the way everything ended in silence just solved the awkward surrounding between the three of us. Apollo has nothing to do now. I've decided. All I wanted was to work at the club. Besides, the only reason he doesn’t want me to work is because of his father’s suspicion. But it won't happen again, I’ll make sure of it.I could say that my company is working at night, I mean the corporate workers. As for now, I won't think of it yet. There are more problems to think of yet, and one of them is my brother. I woke up early in the morning, feeling anxious as I prepared to go to the hospital to visit my brother, Andrei. I looked at the clock, and it was already 7:30 in the morning. I hurriedly got dressed, did my makeup, and checked if this was already okay. Before leaving the house, I left a note for Apollo, telling him that I was going to the hospital and would be back soon.As I was about to leave the house, I saw Jade sitting

RIX's P.O.V.Jade fell asleep, maybe because she’s been tired playing with Andrei. Andrei’s sleeping too. He sounded tired but happy. I'm sure, today has been filled with love and enjoyment because of Jade. It wasn't that bad bringing jade after all. Between Apollo and I, No one spoke after that. Both of us were lost in nothingness.We sat in silence for a few moments, both lost in our own thoughts.When I looked at him, his gaze was lost on me. We're looking at each other. I could feel the tension between us, the unspoken feelings that hung in the air. I can feel my heart knocking so fast.It accelerated so fast. Hmm. His gaze suddenly lost in my neck. His eyes are now looking at my lips.Oh god, his face is getting closer to me, I can feel my heart beat so fast. I was lost in the art of his face. The way he gulped and his Adam’s apple moved. God damn it. His hands are lost in my neck, caressing it as if it was his own. Then his lips are almost to meeting mine. But ju

Apollo’s P.O.V.When I went home, I decided to meet with my cousins, Michael, Harold, and Seb. I've asked my cousins to meet me at the condo.They brought some chips cola and whiskey to drink. That was their sole purpose why they met, to have a drink. It's been a while since we've talked about this and had this kind of hangout.As Seb took a piece of a chip which is called Piattos, he sat beside Apollo and started teasing him. "I know why you're smiling!!" I looked at Seb nonchalantly, waiting for the next words that will come out of his mouth. Michael rebutted "Yeah! You know what, after your ex-girlfriend, I've never seen you smile like that! What's my name again?"Harold ate the last piece of chips of Piattos that Seb has been eating since a while ago and then he replied, "Ivy."Michael and Seb did the high five with Harold and then they laugh as they tease me. I rolled my eyes while shaking my head. "It’s been a long time, why do you keep on bringing her up? Can we just dri

Beatrix’s P.O.V.Michael suddenly felt a pang of anger in his chest. "Yes, she's just your employee. But does that mean that you really have to be so rude to her?” "Rude?” asked Apollo. "I wasn't being rude I was just being me. Maybe she has forgotten who I really am because I was being so kind to her. But I'm not. And as far as I can remember, I even told you to tell that phrase to her when you abduct her, right?"Seb was feeling irritated. He couldn’t take Apollo’s words anymore.He was having this urge of punching his cousin but he was still trying his best to keep it between his toes.Seb answers, "And you're really acting upon it?"I can't help but burst into tears. They were all arguing because of me and I don't know what to do. Harold, who has been so quiet the whole time, started banging on the door to catch our attention, especially Apollo. Even my display of emotion had been interrupted because of his loud banging. "If you can’t protect a woman that you like, then stop

3rd P.O.V.It's been a week since the moment Apollo acted insane, cold, grouchy, and weird toward Beatrix. Ever since that, Beatrix had never been so bubbly as she was before. It's after lunch and she decided to visit Charis before going to the hospital to visit Andrei. Beatrix walked into Charis' apartment, taking a deep breath as she took off her coat. She had been so busy with her brother that she had not seen Charis for a while. Beatrix has also been so busy that she forgot how to look after herself. She's been devastated, out of herself, and did not bother to smile.Harley was already there, seated at the kitchen table, sipping on a cup of coffee. Beatrix gave him a quick nod before heading towards the couch, where Charis was sitting with a book in her hand."Hey, Rix! How's Andrei doing?" Charis asked, looking up from her book.Beatrix smiled, feeling relieved to have some company. "He's doing better. He's awake now, so I decided to stay with him in his room."Harley nodded

3rd P.O.V."I can't believe you would do this to me, Apollo," Beatrix said, her voice shaking with emotion.Apollo didn't respond. He just continued to comfort his crying fuck buddy, ignoring Beatrix completely.Beatrix couldn't take it anymore. She turned around and started to walk away, tears streaming down her face. Apollo's father, who had been watching the whole thing, followed her."Beatrix, wait," he called after her.Beatrix stopped and turned to face him, wiping the tears from her eyes."Please, Dad, I just want to go home," Beatrix said, her voice barely above a whisper."Beatrix, I'm sorry for what happened tonight. I didn't know that she was going to do that," Mr. Cartier said, looking genuinely apologetic."It's not just that, Dad. Apollo has been acting strange towards me lately, and I don't know why," Beatrix said, feeling a lump in her throat."I know, Beatrix. That's why I set up this date for you two. I wanted you to reconnect and work things out," Mr. Cartier, looki

3rd P.O.V.As Beatrix sat at the bar, Harley and Charis joined her, each taking a seat on either side of her. Harley slid her a drink, and Charis gave her a sympathetic smile.Harley spoke first. "So, what's going on with you and Apollo? I saw him storm out of here earlier."Beatrix sighed. "He's so closed off, Harley. I don't know what to do. Every time I try to get closer to him, he pushes me away."Charis chimed in. "Maybe he's just not ready yet. You have to be patient."Beatrix shook her head. "I don't know if I can be patient anymore. I want to be with him, but I don't want to keep waiting around for him to change his mind."Harley frowned. "But what about your brother? Isn't he your top priority right now?"Beatrix's face fell. "Of course he is. But that doesn't mean I can't have a life too."Charis nodded. "You're not being selfish, Beatrix. You deserve to be happy too."Beatrix took a sip of her drink and sighed again. "I just don't know if it's worth it. All this stress and

3rd P.O.V."Because I saw it with both of my eyes. Every time he hurts me, shouted at me… every time he does something inhuman, he will come to me and say his mistakes. He will admit it and apologize with all of his heart. And he will not sugarcoat everything that he did or justify it for him to prove that I am the one who is at fault, and not him. He could admit his mistakes and at the same time, he’s HOT, okay? I can’t deny that fact, he’s hot.”Charis and I laughed, especially Charis, as she heard about being hot. It's really the first thing that matters to me. It’s the first thing that made me interested in him and curious about him what made us closer, right? I’m not just his contracted wife, but also a sex worker to him. But to me, I’m not just doing this because of work, or because he told me to, or because he needed someone to take out his lust.Charis, Harley, and Beatrix are still drinking. For them, it’s their day off the next day so it doesn’t matter. Beatrix slumped o

Claiming the Ruthless CEO Finale
3rd P.O.V.Apollo and Beatrix arrived at Grandma's house in the morning. Donny was already waiting at the door, dressed in his favorite superhero costume."Hey, little man," Apollo said, picking up Donny and giving him a hug."Hi, Dad!" Donny said, grinning from ear to ear.Beatrix smiled at the sight of them. "Are you ready to go visit Charis at the hospital?" she asked Donny.Donny's face fell. "Is Auntie Charis sick?" he asked."She's feeling a little under the weather, but we're going to bring her some flowers and make her feel better," Beatrix explained.Donny perked up at the idea of giving Auntie Charis flowers. "Can I pick the flowers?" he asked."Of course," Apollo said, ruffling his son's hair.They drove to the hospital, with Donny eagerly pointing out every flower he saw on the way. When they arrived, they made their way to Charis's room. She was lying in bed, looking weak and tired."Hey, Charis," Beatrix said, placing the flowers on the bedside table.Charis tried to smi

3rd P.O.V.Beatrix was excited to finally go home after being confined in the hospital for days. Apollo came to visit her every day, and he even brought her favorite flowers and snacks. Beatrix was grateful for his presence, and she felt a sense of comfort every time he was around.As they left the hospital, Apollo suggested they go to the nicest restaurant in town to celebrate Beatrix's homecoming. Beatrix was hesitant at first, feeling that they didn't need to spend so much money, but Apollo insisted.Once they arrived at the restaurant, Beatrix was taken aback by its grandeur. She had never been to a place like this before, and she felt a bit out of place in her casual clothes. However, Apollo reassured her that she looked beautiful and that she deserved to be treated like a queen.They were seated in a private room with a beautiful view of the city. The table was set with the finest silverware and crystal glasses. The waiters were attentive, and the chef personally came to their t

3rd P.O.V.Beatrix felt a knot form in her stomach as she watched Charis walk away with the group of men. She knew she had to talk to her friend, but she also didn't want to make a scene in front of the strangers.Taking a deep breath, she approached Charis once the men had disappeared from sight. "Charis, can we talk?"Charis stopped in her tracks and turned to face Beatrix. "What do you want to talk about?"Beatrix hesitated, unsure of how to broach the subject. "I just wanted to check in on you. Are you okay?"Charis rolled her eyes again. "Of course, I'm okay. Why wouldn't I be?"Beatrix frowned. She could tell that something was off about Charis, but she didn't want to push too hard. "Well, you just seemed...distant lately. Is everything going alright with you and Harley?"Charis scoffed. "Harley? He's the least of my problems right now."Beatrix was taken aback by Charis' sudden bitterness towards her husband. "What do you mean?"Charis hesitated before finally speaking. "I just
Claiming the Ruthless CEO The forgiveness
As soon as Beatrix woke up, the first thing she does is think.Beatrix couldn't get Charis out of her mind. She had been overthinking about her friend's life for days. What could have happened to make Charis run away from the pack of men like that? And why did she choose to disappear into the night instead of seeking help from the people she knew would always have her back?Beatrix had always known Charis to be a strong, independent woman, but lately, she had noticed that her friend had been struggling. Charis seemed to be carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders, and Beatrix couldn't help but feel guilty for not noticing sooner.As Beatrix walked along the shore, her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the crashing waves. She looked out into the vast ocean and felt a sense of peace wash over her. But even the calming waves couldn't ease her mind.She thought about all the times she and Charis had spent together, laughing, dancing, and having a great time. They had been
Claiming the Ruthless CEO Last night is a mystery
Charis paced back and forth outside the reception venue, her hands tightly gripping her dress. She could see Beatrix approaching her with a warm smile on her face."Charis! There you are. Is everything alright?"Charis sighed and turned to face Beatrix. "No, everything's not alright. I'm so mad at you, Beatrix, and I don't even know why."Beatrix's expression turned to one of concern. "Why are you mad at me? Did I do something to upset you?"Charis shook her head. "No, it's not you. It's just... it's just that you have everything, Beatrix. You have the perfect wedding, the perfect husband, the perfect life. And I can't help but feel jealous."Beatrix's smile softened. "Charis, you don't have to be jealous. I'm not perfect, and my life isn't perfect either. And besides, you have Harley. You married the man you love."Charis scowled. "That's just it, Beatrix. Even though I married Harley, it seems like he still likes you. Every time we're together, he can't stop talking about you. It's
Claiming the Ruthless CEO Wedding
3rd P.O.V.The sun was setting on the horizon, casting a warm orange glow over the beach. The waves gently lapped against the shore, creating a calming sound that mingled with the soft chatter of the guests. The beach was decorated with simple yet elegant white flowers, accentuated with subtle hints of blue that matched the ocean's hue.Beatrix looked stunning in her white wedding gown that hugged her curves in all the right places. Her dark hair was styled in a loose, flowing braid, adorned with small white flowers that complemented her bouquet. She looked nervous but happy as she stood beside the altar, waiting for Apollo to arrive.Apollo arrived in a sleek black suit that emphasized his broad shoulders and chiseled jawline. He looked confident and composed, a contrast to Beatrix's nervous energy. He walked towards Beatrix with purpose, his gaze fixed on her. When he reached her, he took her hand and smiled softly at her, reassuring her.The ceremony was simple and intimate, offici
Claiming the Ruthless CEO I will ruin you
3rd P.O.V.Papers were flying around the room, and Mr. Cartier was seething with anger over the report detailing the downfall of his company since Apollo's resignation. He was desperate to do whatever it took to win back his son and bring him back to the company to boost sales.The situation was particularly challenging because Mr. Cartier's company was outdated and struggling to stay afloat. The scattered papers covered the floor as a visual representation of his frustration and disappointment.In his rage, he called for his assistant to fetch him a cup of coffee and urgently contact his wife. He needed her support and presence at that moment.Harold, one of the individuals Mr. Cartier had entrusted with the company's operations, had been a letdown. Despite his frequent travels, including visits to the rural city where Beatrix resided, all Harold seemed to care about was possessing her. He hoped that by achieving this, he could claim victory over Apollo in at least one aspect.Mr.
Claiming the Ruthless CEO Will you?
RIX’s P.O.V.It suddenly became quiet inside the hut, leaving me wondering what had happened or if they had already settled their differences. I clearly heard earlier that Charis wanted to separate from Harley, but now they seemed to have another chance and were probably having a thorough conversation. I couldn't help but smile at the thought.Charis and Harley had been together for four years, the same age as Adonis. It was impressive that they had managed to communicate, confront their feelings, and keep them hidden for so long. Especially for Charis because I know that from the very beginning, he had feelings for Harley and was just keeping it to herself.Charis had been dating other guys to cover up her emotions and hide her true feelings for Harley, but somehow she had managed to keep her feelings intact without getting attached to anyone else.The attachment she had with Harley was deep-rooted and difficult to remove. Suddenly, Harold, Seb, and Michael came into my mind.Yeah
Claiming the Ruthless CEO Snuck out
RIX’s P.O.V.I could feel myself breaking down as I made my decision in front of everyone watching me on the app during my lowest point.Do you watch me stand up on my own when the world tries to knock me down?Apparently, I wasn't alone when facing the most challenging moment of my life because my friends were here, witnessing my growth.They offered their help, but I kept refusing it.And if I said I don't feel anything for Apollo anymore, I would be lying. BECAUSE I STILL DO!Honestly, I would like to give it another try.Perhaps my initial decision was influenced by the overwhelming number of eyes watching me.Humans can be foolish.Friends often advise their hurt loved ones to stay away, but those same friends act as if they're listening while secretly still engaging with the person who hurt them— going back to the same place that hurts them.I wanted to avoid falling into that pattern.I'm only human. I'm not a superhuman capable of controlling my emotions to the point of making
