Covering Up For The CEO Chapter 26
Brielle POV I hated being forced to feel like a guest in my own home, a stranger in my own marriage.I waited in the kitchen for the cookies to cook, my hand around a wad of papers from the hospital that I had yet to sort through. My mind wasn't even on the cookies…..I was still seething from my fight with Diana that morning. That she'd admitted to having given me drugs and was so cavalier about it was getting my blood boiling.The oven beeper brought me back to life. I huffed, picking up the papers and setting them down, before tying my mitts up and taking out the tray. A sweet, warm smell of fresh-baked cookies permeated the kitchen air, in contrast to this choking house tension.Stacking the cookies neatly onto a plate, I carefully balanced them and stepped out of the kitchen to continue on my way towards Albert's mother, who was in the living room drinking tea like some sort of monarch upon her throne. Diana was seated beside her, with a smug look spreading onto her face. I appr

Brielle POV I was not even out of the stairs when Diana's voice called after me."Brielle!"I stopped in my tracks, exhaling slowly before I turned around. She stood next to Rebecca, a veil of innocence on her face, her hands cradling her belly protectively as though she was the saint in this house."Would you be a dear and make some coffee for Mother?" she said sweetly.I missed the scornful tone in her voice. She knew just what she was doing, reminding me of my place in this household. I forced a thin smile. "Of course." I said not another word, just went on into the kitchen, my brain seething as I prepared the coffee. I could still hear them talking in the other room, Diana's voice sweetened with unspoken barbs.What was Rebecca doing here out of the blue? She never visited unless she needed something. And Diana… Diana was up to something, I could be sure.Pouring the now prepared coffee into a china cup, I cautiously carried it back. The moment I stepped into the living room, I

Brielle POV The next day, I woke up with a pounding headache. My body felt weak, my limbs heavy like they had lost all energy. Something was not right. This was not stress or fatigue.I had felt this too many times in the last few weeks, always dizzy, always tired, and the fact that I had passed out and felt unconscious for sometime too. It's strange and I feel something is definitely wrong. I needed answers.In no time, I got dressed and drove straight to the hospital.The moment I walked into the clinic, I demanded a full test. I needed to know what was happening to me.Hours went by before the results were ready, and my hands trembled as I read them.Drugs.I had been drugged.My gut was in knots as my head was racing with possibilities. Who would do this? Who was even permitted into my food and drink stores?And then I figured it out.Diana.The only one living in this house with all the motivation to have me incapacitated, confused, and impaired.A hot rage seared my chest as I

Brielle POV I set my cup down on the coffee table with just a little more force than necessary. "That’s interesting, Diana," I said sweetly. "Because you didn’t seem to need Albert’s comfort last night when Nicholas was around."Her fingers twitched against Albert’s shirt, and I saw the flicker of recognition in her eyes. She knew exactly what I meant. She understands perfectly, I could see it in her face. Albert frowned, his gaze moving between us, sensing the tension. "Brielle, she’s just scared. It’s not a big deal."I gave him a pointed look. "Albert, this is our bedroom. You can’t possibly think it’s appropriate for Diana to cling to you like this when she has her own room….and her own guest to keep her company."Diana’s lips parted, her eyes widening as if I had just accused her of something unspeakable. "Brielle, how could you say that? Nicholas is just my cousin! I would never….""Then you shouldn’t have a problem staying with him," I cut in smoothly. "I’m sure he’d be happy

Brielle POV "What?!" I shot forward, fury burning through my veins. "You’re lying! I never said that!"Diana flinched, her lower lip trembling as she turned to Albert with big, glossy eyes. "I….I swear, Albert, she did. She said I would be thrown out of this house soon, and she….she tried to hurt me.""Enough!" Albert’s voice boomed through the room, making both of us fall silent.He pinched the bridge of his nose, exhaling harshly. "I’m tired of this constant fighting between you two.""But Albert…." I started, my chest tightening."Enough, Brielle!" His sharp tone cut through me like a knife.I swallowed hard, my nails digging into my palms as anger and frustration swirled inside me.Diana sniffled again, playing the victim perfectly as Albert continued tending to her wound.I clenched my teeth.The moment Albert left the room, Diana's entire demeanor shifted. The fragile, weeping woman vanished in an instant, replaced by a smug smirk as she wiped the last fake tear from her cheek.

Brielle POV "Don’t you ever say that to anyone," she hissed, her voice low and threatening. "Or else you’ll regret it, Brielle. I’m warning you, don’t mess with me."I raised an eyebrow, unfazed. She was trying to intimidate me, but I had already seen her at her weakest, desperate and at the mercy of that man in her room. She had no power over me."Or else what?" I shot back, yanking my hand free from her grasp. "What can you do, Diana? You're nothing but a shameless bitch." I leaned in closer, lowering my voice so only she could hear. "Your days are numbered in this house. It won’t be long before Albert throws you out with your bastard pregnancy."Diana's lips curled into a sneer, but I caught the way her jaw clenched, she was barely holding herself together."We shall see who’s going to be thrown out of this house," she spat, her voice dripping with venom. She stepped even closer, her breath hot with rage. "Everything in this house belongs to me, even Albert."I froze for a split s

Brielle POV His hands roamed her body, greedy and shameless, pulling down the thin straps of her nightgown until it slipped from her shoulders. My stomach twisted as he palmed her breasts, rolling her nipples between his fingers before taking one into his mouth.“You got exactly what I always wanted,” he groaned against her skin, his hand sliding down her stomach, disappearing between her thighs.Diana gasped, arching into him, her fingers tangling in his hair. She was lost in him, in the moment, completely unaware that I was standing right there, watching everything.Nicholas’s fingers moved faster, teasing her, making her whimper. “Mmm, you like that, don’t you?” he whispered, his voice thick with lust.He pulled her panties to the side, his free hand unbuckling his belt, taking down his trousers just enough. Diana straddled him, her head tilting back, lips parting as she rocked against him. Nicholas said, oh, my dealing sweet Diana. come on, he's hands were on her waist pushing i

Brielle POV Albert opened the door, and standing there was the last person I expected to see, the man I saw with Diana at the hospital.A tall man with sharp features and a confident smirk, his hands tucked into the pockets of his designer coat. His eyes flickered to Albert, then to me. And then, he smiled. A slow, knowing smile.“I’m here to see Diana,” he said smoothly, his voice dripping with familiarity.Before Albert or I could react, Diana quickly rushed closer to the door, her face lighting up with fake excitement. “Oh, Nicholas! My dear cousin, how are you?” she exclaimed, linking her arm around his like they had been close for years. “I’m so sorry I didn’t make it to pick you up at the airport.”I froze.Cousin?Diana was a liar, but this was a new level of deception.Albert, however, didn’t seem to question it. He nodded politely, his expression neutral. “Nicholas,” he repeated, as if processing the name.Diana turned to us, still holding onto Nicholas’s arm. “Albert, Briel

Brielle POVJust as I suspected, Diana wasn’t as sick as she pretended to be.Albert returned with the doctor, his expression filled with concern. “Doctor, please check on her again. She suddenly collapsed earlier, and I want to be sure she’s fine.”Diana, who had been clutching her stomach dramatically just moments ago, immediately straightened up the moment the doctor approached. Her eyes darted nervously toward the hallway, where the man had just disappeared. She couldn't risk staying here any longer, she needed to get out before anything went wrong.“Actually,” she said suddenly, forcing a weak but determined smile, “I think I’m okay now. It must have just been stress.” She sighed, pressing a hand against her forehead as if she had just made a miraculous recovery. “No need for me to stay here any longer.”The doctor looked at her skeptical but nodded. “If you're feeling better, then there’s no reason to keep you admitted. However, I would advise you to take it easy and get some re

Brielle’s Pov“What is it?” I found myself asking no one in particular; with my heart racing a mile a minute as everyone in the hall suddenly fixed their gaze on me, their gazes which came with an indistinct murmur. For a second I thought I had done something wrong.Behind me seemed to be another point of attraction. I was not sure whether or not it was safe to look back, but before I could even think, curiosity took the better part of me.I turned almost immediately only to behold the figure of Albert Stone on one of his knees revealing the stunning diamond ring in the small box he was holding.“Brielle Davis, be my wife and make me the happiest man on earth, and anything you’d ever dream of would be made available to you” the proud young man on his knees said.A gasp left my lips as he said those words to me. There’s no way that’s going to happen. Albert Stone, on his knee, asking me, Brielle Davis to marry him? It had to be some kind of a sick joke that he was playing on me. My eye...
