2025-03-14 13:00:06While walking with Emily, Sophia's phone rang from her bag. She took it out to see Alexander's name on the screen.
Did I keep him waiting for long? She thought before picking it up.“Hubby, I'm almost there,” she said, glancing at the car nearby.Alexander spoke, and Sophia glanced at Emily, who was eyeing her curiously from the side.She is very eager to meet my husband, how can I dampen her mood?An idea quickly popped into her head, and a mysterious smile appeared on her face.Her eyes gleamed mischievously as she turned to Emily. “Let's go.”Watching her, Emily had a bad premonition.“What's with that look, Soph? Why do I feel like you're scheming against me?” She asked, looking at her vigilantly.Sophia couldn't control her laugh. This girl is clever after all. But still, she pretended as if she wasn't planning anything.“What can I do to you? Don't you trust me?” She questioned, feigning

Divorce To Marry A CEO Chapter 97: Gerald is Back
“How is it a police matter yet these men aren't arrested already?” One reporter asked sharply. Roman and his people panicked as cameras turned to them. He knew things had escalated, and the police wouldn't protect them. He took a few steps, intending to slip away during the chaos. But the lead police officer, who was already cornered by the journalist, barked. “What are you waiting for? Arrest them.” He gestured to his companion. Right after his orders, Roman and his gang were all handcuffed and shoved into the police cars. The firearms and the drugs were confiscated and loaded into police vehicles to be taken into custody. “Officer, what are you going to do with this?” Another reporter asked, pointing at the confiscated items. “This matter is now in police hands. We will provide updates later. Please disperse." The police officer said, dismissing the journalist. "Can you tell us who's behind this illegal business, officer?" A reporter stepped forward, extending a mic

“What is it?” Gerald snapped coldly.“Boss, we can't help you this time. You need to get a scapegoat or this will be traced back to you.” The person said, choosing his words carefully.Do you think I don't know that already? Are you teaching me how to do my job now?” Gerald roared into the phone."No, no! I'm sorry, boss. Forget I said anything." the other person apologized quickly.Gerald hung up and hurled the phone on the ground.The phone shattered on the floor, a perfect reflection of his fury.Viktor watched without a word as the phone shattered into mere pieces. But Gerald wasn't done yet, he grabbed his phone and furiously dialed Larry’s number.When Larry answered, Gerald's voice immediately erupted like a volcano.“You bastard!” he roared into the phone, his voice shaking with rage.“You're as incompetent and useless as your mother was, you hear me? You’re nothing but a screw-up!”Larry remained silent on the other end, accustomed to Gerald’s insults.But the latter was un

“I don't care! I just want to teach him a lesson. And if it can quicken my plans the better.” Gerald roared viciously.Viktor nodded, knowing too well his boss wouldn't reason right now.“What about the mole? How did Alexander know so much about our operation?” Gerald asked again, calming down slightly.“We’re still investigating. We haven’t identified the leak so far." Answered Viktor.“Find the person as soon as possible, Viktor. We can't give Alexander an upper hand again.” He said, leaning back on his chair.“Yes, boss,” Viktor replied with a nod, backing out of the room.If only Larry was as talented as Alexander. I wouldn't be here right now.Gerald thought, looking in the distance.***The next morning, Sophia woke early, as usual, ready to head to work.She glanced at the place beside her, but it was empty.She could feel some warmth meaning Alexander didn't wake up a long time ago.She headed to the bathroom to get ready. She had a full day ahead of her and was eager to tack

“He has confirmed I can sign on his behalf,” Sophia said.“Great! Let’s get this done,” Drake said with a triumphant grin, quickly masking it with a casual nod.He slid the papers across the desk toward her, and she scanned them carefully.Indeed the documents were about the competition. Having confirmed everything, she picked up the pen and signed her name.When she finished the last signature, Drake slid another document toward her.'Don't forget our copy for records," he added."Sophia nodded and glanced briefly at the other papers.She didn’t feel the need to scrutinize the details again. After all, Drake was Alexander’s trusted friend, and she had her husband’s blessing.With one swift motion, she signed her name again and handed the contract back to Drake.“Thank you so much, Sophia. You’ve saved us from missing a big opportunity,” Drake said, his tone genuinely appreciative.Sophia stood and smiled. “No problem. I’m glad I could help.”“Nice. And I wish you all the best in that

“No progress so far. We’ve used up most of our resources, but still no lead,” Mark reported regretfully.“That old man is getting more cunning,” Alexander said, gritting his teeth.“What should we do, boss?” Mark asked, understanding the grimness of the matter.“Keep searching. Don't leave any stone unturned,” He ordered.Mark nodded and exited the office.Alexander was about to get back to his work when his phone vibrated from the table.He checked and saw a WhatsApp message from an unknown number."I have some information about Gerald. Meet me in room 203 at the Grand Royale Hotel. You have thirty minutes."Alexander hesitated, staring at the message.Gerald was a constant thorn in his side, and any information about him was valuable.Mark just confirmed that there was no progress despite searching for a long time.The message tempted him.Still, this could easily be a trap. His thumb hovered over the screen as he typed back:"Who are you, and why should I trust you?"The reply came

Meanwhile, in Alexander’s Office… He had returned in a rush, still angry with Jessica.He hadn’t even spent three minutes in the hotel room. The moment he saw Jessica waiting for him, he knew something was off.She had danced around the topic of Gerald, offering no substantial information. It had been a waste of time, and he’d left almost immediately.Now, standing in his office, his assistant, Mark, rushed in, holding a tablet.“Boss, you need to see this,” Mark said, handing it over.Alexander stared at the screen, his heart dropping into his stomach.The headlines were everywhere. Photos of him and Jessica entering the hotel room together were plastered across every major news outlet.The captions were even worse, speculating about their relationship and hinting at an affair.Alexander’s grip tightened on the tablet. His jaw clenched. "Damn it!" he muttered, his pulse racing.He hadn’t done anything wrong, but the media had already made their own narrative.And now, the entire wor

Amelia reached across the table and held her hand. There was nothing more to say.The alcohol might dull the pain for a while, but it could never truly heal her heart.She knew this had to be a misunderstanding, but where was Alexander? As Sophia's husband, shouldn't he be here to clear things up?***Back at the other end of the city, the man in question was rushing frantically through the city.After failing to locate Sophia at the office, he had driven like a madman to Sophia’s old apartment.Nothing.His chest felt like it was being crushed with every second she remained missing. He could feel the world slipping from beneath his feet.Worse still was the fact that Gerald was in the shadows and Larry might take action if he gets a perfect opportunity.In desperation, he rushed to the villa where Catherine and Ethan lived. He knocked urgently, barely containing his panic.Catherine opened the door, her face lighting up when she saw him."Alex! Come in! How are you?" she greeted war

Meanwhile, in Jessica's private villa, she sat smugly, her manicured fingers resting against her cheeks as she savored the chaos she had caused.Two servants were giving her a massage and she closed her eyes to relish the moment.Her assistant had been pacing outside, waiting for permission to enter.Jessica had specifically given the order that no one should disturb her.Two hours later, she signaled for her assistant to get in.The assistant hurried in nervously.“What's it? Didn't I say I don't need you around until tomorrow?” Jessica snapped.She wanted a peaceful evening, yet this girl had been standing there for hoursIf I weren’t in such a good mood, I’d have her punished for standing outside that long.“Miss Jason, the news was pulled down.” the assistant reported cautiously.“What?” Jessica snapped, sitting up straight, her eyes turning cold.“Didn’t I tell you to use however much money you needed to make it trend until tomorrow?” She asked angrily.“We tried, Miss Jason.

Back in Sadrova restaurant, Alexander emerged from the bathroom after several knocks on the door.He wrapped a towel around his waist and opened the door.Tim hurried in with his bag. He looked just like any other thirty-year-old guy who happened to be on duty. His white doctor’s coat was slightly creased like he’d rushed out of the hospital without a second thought. Underneath, he had on a black T-shirt and jeans, just something comfortable for a long shift. A stethoscope still hung around his neck, probably out of habit more than anything. His glasses gave him a smart, slightly serious look, but there was an easygoing air about him.“What took you so long?” Alexander asked, masking the discomfort in his body."I left my patients waiting just to come here, and you're complaining?" Tim asked casually, placing his bag on the couch.Alexander just snorted, glaring at him before making his way to the couch.Tim didn’t waste time once he saw Alexander’s condition. He quickly prepared a s

Alexander closed his eyes tightly, unwilling to look at her. Images of Sophia flooded his mind.“No, I can’t let this happen. I won’t,” he muttered, biting his lower lip hard as if the pain would fight off the drug’s effect.He struggled to wake up again, pushing Jessica away. She tried to resist but this time, Alexander shoved her harder, and she fell from the bed.He didn't even spare her a glance; he quickly bent toward the bedside table, grabbed his phone, and staggered out of the room.He struggled to walk in the hallway, holding on to the wall for support.When he reached the next suite, he found a couple holding each other as they were about to make their way in.The man opened the door with a gentlemanly smile, signaling to the lady to get in first.Before the woman could react, Alexander snatched the room card and staggered inside leaving the words, “Sorry, I need to use the room.”Before the man could react, he had already locked the door from the inside.“Damn it!” The man

Meanwhile, back in Hawthorne's ancestral home, Marcus knocked on his grandpa's bedroom, casually tucking his other hand into his pants pocket.After Raphael murmured from inside, he pushed the door open and walked inside. The room was dimly lit, with a bedside lamp casting a soft amber glow over the space. The air held a comforting mix of lavender and woody from the old oak furniture.A large, neatly made bed stood against the far wall, its thick duvet turned down slightly, perhaps he was ready for bedtime.An antique clock ticked quietly on the wall, and a pair of slippers sat perfectly aligned by the edge of a plush rug.Raphael was seated on a couch near the window with a steaming cup of tea on the small table in front of him. Despite the warmth in the room, he had a shawl draped over his shoulders, and the lines on his face seemed deeper under the soft light.He seemed to have aged more since the last time Marcus saw him. “Grandpa,” he greeted.“Sit,” Raphael said, pointing at t

Chapter 124: Alexander's Helpless Alexander’s jaw clenched and his eyes darkened. The tension in the room grew so thick that it felt like the air itself was pressing down on everyone. Mark turned to him apologetically, “Sorry, boss, I will...” “It's okay. You can go.” Alexander cut him off coldly. Then he added, “Mark, you can take your leave. You will be rewarded for today." He had just remembered it was supposed to be Mark's off day. “Thank you, boss.” Mark nodded happily before walking out, knowing that his boss didn't blame him. Bullock swallowed hard as he stood up to face Jessica. “Miss Jason, whatever deal we had with your father is being handled by my secretary. Please go speak to her,” he said politely. “I just did that but she couldn't give me any substantial explanation. That's why I came to look for you,” Jessica said with a righteous voice, sounding offended. “I'll look for Mr Jason myself and give him an explanation,” Bruno said, trying to send Jessica aw

“You're the pride of the Hawthornes, my dear. That Sophia was our bad luck; Look at how we're prospering now that she's gone. My son is more accomplished now that she isn't here to drag him behind.” Evelyn clapped like a child who just won a prize, her eyes glowing with pride. She walked over to Marcus and patted his shoulder like he’d just won a major award. “I’m so proud of you, son.” “Marcus, I hope you're not still dreaming of bringing her back,” Lauren scoffed, tilting her chin up in distaste. Marcus leaned back lazily, his arms spread across the back of the couch. He smirked, brushing invisible dust from his shirt like a king making a declaration. “Sophia will be mine sooner or later..." “Marcus, you're just digging your own grave. Go see your grandpa now.” His father's angry voice came from upstairs interrupting them. “So it's true you don't believe in me, Dad. Is that why you stepped down?” Marcus turned to him with his face full of disappointment. His fathe

“Wait… why are you so quick to defend yourself?” Sophia laughed out, amused.“Well, that's because I hate slander. But you know I'm not lying, right?” he asked, shrugging his shoulders. “Yes. You two are gentlemen. The girl who ends up with you will be the luckiest,” she said, winking at Amelia.“Did you hear that?” Michael turned to Amelia proudly. “You two are impossible.” Amelia stomped her foot and walked away to hide her flushing face.***Meanwhile, Alexander watched silently as his phone disconnected. “I need to deal with Jessica quickly or it will affect my relationship with Sophia,” he muttered before walking back to the coffee shop with a resolute face. “Have you made up your mind?” he asked as he sat down. “You said you can fulfill any of my wishes, right?” Jessica asked, putting her phone on the table. “Anything within my capability,” Alexander said, leaning on his seat. “Then divorce Sophia and marry me.” She dared him.

Back at the Eldridge International Airport, the final boarding call echoed through the terminal: “Final boarding for Flight 782 to Geniva. All remaining passengers, please proceed to Gate 14 immediately.” Jessica stood up calmly, composed, like everything was going exactly as she had planned. She picked up her handbag, adjusted her blazer slightly, and started walking toward the gate. Her assistant, clearly more nervous, hurried after her. “Miss Jason, are we boarding now? I thought …” “Just follow me and stop asking questions,” Jessica cut her coldly and walked ahead. Her heels clicked confidently against the polished floor without any hint of panic. When they reached the gate, she handed over her passport and boarding pass with a small, polite smile. The attendant scanned them and gave a quick nod. “You may proceed.” She and her assistant began walking down the jet bridge. They were only a few steps away from the plane's door when a sudden urgent voice cal

Back in Eldridge, in the backyard of Jason's estate, Rachel knelt by her flowerbed, humming a tune as she worked.She wore a flowing cream-colored dress that fluttered slightly with the breeze. A wide straw hat shielded her face, but even then, the grace in her every movement showed. Her hands, though elegant, weren’t afraid of dirt. She held a small pruning shear and gently snipped away a dried leaf from one of her prized roses.The garden was in full bloom, with roses in shades of blush and deep red, lilies standing tall and proud, and dainty white daisies dancing in the wind. It was her happy place. Every weekend, she spent at least an hour here. It was one of the few things that grounded her and made her feel like everything would be okay.She wiped her forehead with the back of her glove, smiling faintly at the progress she had made. Her flowerbed looked perfect.Just then, a servant came rushing out from the house, breathless.“Madam, Mr. Evans is here. He doesn’t look like he c

Meanwhile, back in Averia, Alexander’s car rolled to a stop outside a modest building nestled between tall sycamore trees. The sign above the gate read Happy Orphanage in faded blue paint. The walls were worn and the compound was quiet and solemn. A woman in her mid-fifties stepped out to meet him. Her hair was tied in a tight bun, streaked with gray, and her eyes held both kindness and years of experience. She wore a plain beige dress and clutched a manila folder to her chest like it held secrets. “Welcome to Happy Orphanage, Mr. Evans. We’re at your service,” she greeted warmly, with a practiced tone like someone used to formalities and farewells. Alexander nodded and followed her inside. In her office, she showed Alexander all the files related to the person he was looking for. “According to your description, this is the person who was at the orphanage and later rescued by her parents that same year,” she explained, handing over the file. Alexander took the document and fli
