Contract Marriage: Married To A Sadistic CEO Unforgettable Lesson
“Why do you have to disgrace me? Why do you want to make me curse the day your mom gave birth to you, Layla?” Layla, who was busy watching a movie online, was distracted by the sudden sound of her flung door, followed by her father's voice. She raised her gaze to stare at her father before replying, “Why not go ahead and curse? Was there ever a time when you didn't consider me a disgrace?”Dante took a few steps closer to her before slapping her. This time, he slapped her twice. “Are you only going to slap me? Why not go ahead and kill me?” She asked, tears streaming down her face as she held her cheeks. “You made me this! You made me go too far to be able to turn back!”“Did I ask you to do anything for me? I never wanted this life for you! You chose this path yourself, Layla!” He shouted at her. “Did I? If only you didn't get greedier and work hard for your wealth, I wouldn't have dreamed of the life I was supposed to be living,” her voice trailed off as she spoke up. “You faile

“I am sorry, this will be a bit harder because Atlas's friend is the forensic pathologist. No doubt, he is going to hand over the result to Atlas, and you know the outcome if that happens,” Kenny explained. Alden let out a deep breath of frustration before he spoke up, “Just do anything to make sure this doesn't get out of hand.”He knew if his grandma or the media found out about his little dirty secret, he was going to lose everything he struggled to build for ten years. His company, his dream to become the world's wealthiest CEO, and his grandma's love for him would be destroyed.“I will use all the company's resources to sort this out. But for now, cool off your mind because I fear you might explode anytime soon,” Kenny said with a teasing smile.“Damn!” His lips parted before he walked up to where the car was parked. After they got into the car, Kenny drove off. Meanwhile, Layla, who was struggling with her consciousness, heard everything they said. She smiled cunningly befor

After Layla arrived, she changed into a long black gown that covered most of her bandaged skin. She took her purse and put the money inside. After checking herself in the mirror, she checked her phone to see if Chloe had already sent it. Her lips tilted into a sly smile as she saw his daily schedule. “I can't believe he is into gambling, and even at the gambling house at 2:00am,” she muttered to herself before she got out of her room. She boarded a cab to the gambling house. Since it was midnight, the driver was driving slowly until they arrived. She alighted from the car and paid the driver before entering the gambling house. “Madam, where is your entrance card?” Before she entered the main gambling hall, she was stopped by two men wearing a serious look. “I am a newcomer. Someone recommended this place to me,” she lied with an honest look on her face. If there was anything she was good at, it was turning lies into truth. But she always sucks at putting that talent to use.
Contract Marriage: Married To A Sadistic CEO A Sweet Offer
“Sir, Doctor Xavier left immediately after the autopsy results. I tried all I could to find his location but couldn't,” Kenny reported. “What am I going to do? What if he handed that result to the press or to my brother? Don't you know what that means?” Alden asked with worries laced in his voice. Each time he thinks about what would happen if the result reached the press, he can't help but be mad at himself. He had never acted this dumb; this was his first time. He always makes sure to keep no loose ends to his dirty games. “Since Doctor Xavier was once Olivia's family doctor, don't you think she could know where he could possibly be?” Kenny asked, hoping Alden would give his consent to his suggestion. “I am sorry, I can't. She is injured and needs maximum rest. I shouldn't bother her with my problem,” Alden firmly opposed. Kenny's brow knotted at Alden's words. “When did you start to care about Olivia? Have you fallen for her?”“Me? Fall in love after what Sarah did to me? Bes
Contract Marriage: Married To A Sadistic CEO Momentary Lust?
Alden chuckled as he watched the men approach him. He rolled up his sleeves before charging towards them. He deftly dodged their punches and delivered powerful blows in return. Each punch that landed on the men felt like a rock thrown at them, causing them to experience intense pain.Seeing how Alden was overpowering the few men attacking him, the men attacking Kenny shifted their attention to Alden. Despite being outnumbered, Alden managed to land punches on the men within his reach until he became weaker, eventually bringing down all ten men. Alden chuckled as he watched those men groan in pain. He left the spot and approached Atlas. “Atlas, have you realized that you're no match for me? I have been away from home for over a decade, so stop seeing me as the boy you used to scold,” he said before walking away. Kenny, who couldn't help but watch Alden in amusement, followed him. “Kenny, there is no need to act weak when I already know you are,” seeing how Kenny was acting, he r
Contract Marriage: Married To A Sadistic CEO The Bet
Alden hesitated before he replied, “I am sorry. I shouldn't have started this. If you are mistaken by my action, I am sorry.”“What are you really sorry about?” Olivia's voice echoed, barely audible. “The kiss? The fact that I gave you my consent? Leaving me turned on? Why the hell did you even kiss me in the first place?”“I am sorry,” Alden apologized once more before he walked out of her ward. With the look on his face, she knew he meant his apology. ‘Fuck! Why did I give him my consent? Why did I kiss him? Why did I enjoy the kiss? Why is my head blank?’ She ruffled her hair as what happened minutes ago replayed in her head. This was one of the silliest moments she ever experienced. She put on her bra and top before sleeping, hoping everything would be a dream when she wakes up. …. Alden, couldn't sleep until 8:00am. He kept blaming himself and cussing. Since today was another family dinner, he knew he must be there with Olivia. He climbed down from his bed before he took

“You don't have to worry about that. I always stick to my word, unlike someone I know,” Atlas said reassuringly, his gaze fixed on Alden.“Atlas, sister-in-law, could you both allow everyone to eat peacefully? This isn't a place for banter, please,” Dario, who couldn't eat because of the way Atlas, Alden, and Olivia were staring at each other, half-yelled.Atlas returned his gaze to his food before he began eating. Others did the same, except for Grandma Katherine, who was lost in her own thoughts.Olivia reminded her of Alden's mother. She was outspoken and always defended her husband.“Dear sister-in-law, make sure you bring your husband to the hospital tomorrow, or I would take it as me winning the bet,” Atlas said, distracting everyone.“Too bad, I thought we were going to the hospital today,” Olivia replied, staring coldly at him.Atlas chuckled at her words before letting go of his cutlery.“I hate rushing things,” with that said, he stood up and walked out of the dining room.“
Contract Marriage: Married To A Sadistic CEO Olivia's Secret
“Holy cow!”The sound of someone's exclamation made Olivia push Alden away instantly, as if she had just come to her senses.Alden, who was already angry, turned to see who the person was.“Dario, haven't I warned you several times not to barge into my room without my permission?” he asked angrily.“I am sorry. I will make sure this doesn't happen again,” Dario apologized.If Dario were a stranger, he would have taught him a lesson he would remember forever.Not only was he angry that Dario came in at the wrong time, but also because he was feeling horny.“I'll take your word for it,” he said before turning his gaze to Olivia, who was trying to avoid eye contact with him. “Olivia, excuse me. I want to have a conversation with my brother.”“S–sure,” she replied, stressing out the single word before she walked out.Alden hesitated before he began speaking. “Dario, what do you want to tell me that can't wait until later?”“I found out I… I...”“You are what? Is something wrong with you?”

“What the hell are you doing here?” Atlas's voice finally broke the silence in the hall.Alden chuckled before he walked up to Atlas. His usual smile on, he asked calmly. “Is that a question I should expect my brother to ask me after escaping death?”“Or are you not happy that I am here, Atlas?” His question made everyone gasp.“Haha, I was just surprised that you came back. Grandma and I had looked for you everywhere, but couldn't find you. We thought you were kidnapped and killed,” Atlas said, sounding worried even when his gaze stated otherwise.“I was actually kidnapped. Thanks to that, I was able to live—”“That doesn't matter. What matters is the fact that you are back. I believe everyone would be over the moon to hear this good news, especially your wife,” Atlas was quick to interrupt Alden.Hearing his words, his face turned pale. The thought of how he stressed and kept making Olivia worried made him hate himself.Not only does she pretend not to know his whereabouts after kid
Contract Marriage: Married To A Sadistic CEO The Inauguration Day
Today is the day. The day I get what is rightfully mine,” Atlas said, his voice barely audible.Layla, who slept next to him, raised her gaze to meet his eyes, her hands firmly holding the blanket to cover her naked body.“Congratulations, Mr. Kendrick,” she muttered, a faint smile on her face.Atlas chuckled at her words before leaning closer to kiss her forehead. If it weren't for her help, he wouldn't have dreamed of this day.“Just Atlas,” he corrected her. “I can't continue to hear the woman I share the same bed with call me 'Mr. Kendrick'. Also, thank you. If it wasn't for you—”Layla placed her index finger on his lips, silencing him, followed by a soft whisper. “Shhh. Just focus on this day.”This is the reason he was always happy when he was with her. When others wanted to take from him, didn't believe in him, it was the opposite for her. Layla always helped him and believed in him. She was the only one who trusted him without him trying.“I should go take my bath,” Atlas mut

“Yes, I am,” Alden replied, his voice barely audible.Olivia hurried out to look for Davison. “Mr. Davison, please contact the doctor. My husband is awake.”“Okay, ma,” Mr. Davison replied.She left after giving her orders. The fact that Alden woke up felt like a dream to her. She returned to Alden's room.She walked up to him with a bright smile on her face and tears clustered in her eyes. “Alden, thank you for waking up. I am sorry you have to go through this because of me.”“I should be the one being sorry, Olivia,” Alden forced out those words.“No need—”“Ma, if you don't mind, I want to examine him,” the doctor's voice cut her off.She nodded without uttering a word. She walked to the corner of the room, giving him the chance to examine Alden.After a thorough examination, the doctor turned to face Olivia. “I think he needs rest. Don't stress him too much. Aside from that, he is fine.”“Thank you so much, doctor. I don't know how to reward you,” she said with tears streaming dow
Contract Marriage: Married To A Sadistic CEO Finally Gotten Her Revenge
‘Alden, I know you would be happy to find out that I finally have my revenge on the man who raped me. The sweetest revenge I ever had,’ she said inwardly with a bright smile after hearing the judge's verdict.Thanks to other victims who were at the court as witnesses, Aziel was sentenced to ten years in prison for rape, illegal activities, drug, and attempted murder.“Thank you, Ms. Clara,” her face brightened with a smile as she appreciated her lawyer who made this possible.“You are welcome,” Clara replied.Olivia smiled faintly before heading out of the court. She can't wait to share this news with Alden. Even though he is still in a coma, Olivia always reports to him whatever happens to her daily. She believes he could hear her, even though she knew that was just all her imagination.About to get into her car, Jane rushed up to her, making her pause. She turned to face Jane before speaking, “If you are here because of the guilt you are feeling, just go. I already forgave you. Afte

“I came to visit the doctor. I am sorry for disturbing you both,” Olivia replied without fear in her eyes.“Well, here he is,” Atlas said, his gaze fixated on the doctor who was equally wondering what was going on in his mind just like Olivia.Olivia chuckled at Atlas's words before entering the office. She walked up to the doctor before saying, “Thank you for saving my husband. I brought you pasta I bought from a nearby restaurant, but unfortunately, it slipped off my hand.”“Haha, no need to bother about that. I am glad I was able to save him,” the doctor muttered, still focused on Atlas.He knew if he makes any mistake, his reputation and family will be gone. Not only is he a bad son who was behind his mother's death, but because of him, his wife and sons would end up dying. He has to act perfectly without any mistakes.“Oh, doctor, I have a proposal to go through. I have to submit it before I go to bed,” Olivia, who couldn't find any reasonable excuse to give, lied.Even though it
Contract Marriage: Married To A Sadistic CEO That Idiot over everyone
It's been days since Alden was unconscious. Olivia kept blaming herself, while Jane kept coming to the hospital, hoping Olivia would forgive her.“Alden, it's been a week. If you don't wake up, I can't help but replace you with Atlas. I am sorry,” Grandma Katherine said, holding Alden's hand.The day she was informed Alden had an accident, she thought it was a nightmare. She found it hard to believe until this moment.“Good day, Madam Crawford,” the doctor greeted after he walked into the hospital to check up on Alden.“Doctor, are you sure he will wake up?” Grandma Katherine asked, sounding like all hope is lost.“Don't worry, Madam, we will make sure he wakes up. Though I can't assure. But the longest coma patient in this hospital was two years. So be rest assured,” the doctor reassured her before checking on Alden.Grandma Katherine heaved a sigh before she stood up. She walked up to Olivia, who acted like she didn't exist.“Thank you for being by his side, Olivia,” she said softly
Contract Marriage: Married To A Sadistic CEO Alden Got Involved In An Accident
Thank you for saving me. I owe you one,” Olivia said with a faint smile after drinking the tea that calmed her. The tea was prepared by Dario, his acclaimed special recipe.Dario chuckled before speaking, “There is no need to thank me. If I can't save my brother's wife, or rather, the woman my brother loves, why am I alive?”“No need to exaggerate. You sure know how to sweet-talk people,” Olivia teased.“Haha, I am not exaggerating. I know your marriage was a fake one. The marriage certificate was a bit different from the authentic one,” Dario replied calmly. “Also, when we were in Italy, Alden told me he loves and misses you a lot.”Before Olivia could laugh at Dario's words and tag it as a joke, her phone rang. She hesitated before picking up.“Are you Mrs. Kendrick?”“Yes, I am. Olivia Kendrick, Alden's wife,” she replied hastily, wondering what the call might be about.“Your husband had an accident and has been rushed to Alfred Hospital. The doctor needs your approval before he ca
Contract Marriage: Married To A Sadistic CEO Saved By Dario
Aziel's fingers trailed down her left nipple, right under her bra, his hand pinning her down.“Let me go, you monster! I know nothing about the shit you just said!” Knowing Jane couldn't betray her since there isn't any reason for that, Olivia yelled, trying her best to push him off her.Seeing how adamant Olivia was, he decided to reveal the truth to her. “Newsflash; I used Jane to get to you. I told her to do this, and the foolish lady did exactly so. It must be true, Love makes you foolish.”“She didn't even know the words I told her to tell you were true. Please do tell her to come visit me, there are clients asking for the video,” he added shamelessly.If there was anything Olivia wished right now, it should be the freedom to move her hands. She knew if she could, she could slap Aziel so hard that her fingers would create a red scar on his face.“You are a beast!” Olivia cried out.Aziel burst into laughter, actually enjoying the misery Olivia was in. “No one is saving you now!”
Contract Marriage: Married To A Sadistic CEO Plan Ruined
A Few Days Later…Alden, who had been away to avoid thinking about Olivia or confusing her, finally returned.He headed to her room. At the entrance, he knocked faintly on the door until a faint voice echoed, 'I am coming.'“Alden?” Olivia, who thought she wouldn't see his face until their deal ended, called out in a questioning tone.“I came for the document I forgot,” he informed her, avoiding eye contact.“You came here for a document or because you miss me? Also, aren't you going to tell me about your inauguration? Or do you think I won't be aware of that?” Olivia asked with a faint smile.Alden did not bother replying to her question before he left for his room. He got the document he needed and left the house without caring about Olivia, who was staring at him with sadness reflected in her eyes.‘Why am I acting like a fool? This sh!t is going to end today,’ Olivia said inwardly as she watched him leave.She walked into her room, took her bath, and dressed up. After she was done
