Fake Marriage: The Trillionire Tycoon's Fiesty Bride Chapter 488
Though Kai told her to be calm, there is no way Gwen would be calm after knowing that something bad has happened to Eva on her watch. She couldn't help but blame herself for what happened, maybe if she had strictly asked Eva to take the company car it would have been easier to find her. Just as Gwen was busy pacing back and forth, her phone went off. She wanted to ignore the call when she glanced at her phone and saw it was an unknown caller but something told her to pick it, thinking it might be Eva. “Hello, Gwen Miller, speaking.” Gwen said after answering the call. She was expecting to hear Eva's voice but unfortunately it was a different partner called. " Good evening, Miss Miller. I believe you are the manager of Miss Evangeline Carter, right?” A male voice asked. To Gwen the voice was not familiar but if Eva was there she would have instantly known that the man speaking is Julian, her grandfather's assistant. ‘Oh, please don't tell this is a representative of a company that

Gwen took a deep breath and cleared her throat. She can't possibly lie to them so she would tell them the truth. " Honestly speaking, Mr. Reeves. I'm surprised to receive a call from you but currently, Eva isn't with me.” She said, after calming down a bit. " I don't understand? What do you mean Miss Eva isn't with you? Then you can at least let her know that her grandfather called once she-” " Mr. Reeves, Eva went missing from my sight five hours ago. I don't know where she is and she is not returning my calls just as you have been calling her too. I have a feeling that she is probably kidnapped.” Gwen quickly interrupted Julian and told him. "Kidnapped?! The young miss is kidnapped?” Julian yelled in shock, however before he had the time to ask more questions the phone got snatched from his hand. "What do you mean my granddaughter was kidnapped?” George asked, his voice cold enough to freeze the entire study room. Julian froze when he heard his boss' voice and even the way the

“You should have been able to protect her before she got kidnapped then." Without waiting for a response, Damien hung up the call and boarded the plane.“That damned brat!" George furiously slammed his hand on the desk. It was true what Damien said even though he hated to admit it. How can his own granddaughter get kidnapped in his own territory and he wasn't aware of it?“Call Raphael and ask if there is any progress." George turned to look at Julian who immediately carried out his boss's order. ……..Back at the warehouse.The silence stretched in the entire warehouse, a palpable tension in the air as the man watched her. Eva kept her breathing shallow, she forced herself to not react or even flinch. She had to sell the act, convince them that she was knocked out.“See?” The man’s voice was smug now, as though her feigned surrender was all the confirmation he needed of his dominance. “They all fall in the end.”“Great, you overdid it again. Now we have to deal with this." The leader

“An exchange? What for?" Hugo asked.The leader shrugged. "How am I supposed to know that? But it's pretty obvious, she is a woman, so what else could it be for?" He walked over to her, his ominous footsteps getting louder and louder as he approached where Eva was lying.'An exchange?' Eva became worried as she overheard their conversation. The word echoed in her mind, gnawing at her thoughts. What kind of exchange? Why was she valuable enough to keep alive but still deserving of this brutal treatment? It seems she's the bargaining chip for something, but for what? She thought about possible scenarios but the only thing that she could think of was human-trafficking. But they would definitely not go to this extent in beating her up if it was for that purpose.“What do you think about the limb-cutter?” Hugo said again , the suggestion so nonchalant it made her stomach twist as she listened to the way they spoke. It was as if the acts of cruelty they were about to commit were nothing o

A core part of her training had been learning to sense her surroundings. Eva carefully counted twenty pairs of distinct footsteps fading away from the room. These footsteps were heavy, unlike the leader’s, which were deliberate and soft. She could tell these men were brawlers, the type who relied on brute strength and direct violence. But the leader? He was different. She could already tell his methods leaned more toward calculated, creative brutality. That was even more dangerous. From what she remembered, forty men had entered the warehouse earlier, meaning roughly twenty remained behind to guard her.Her instincts urged her to act, but she couldn’t afford to be reckless. She risked a tiny slit of vision, opening her eyes just a crack. No one was in her immediate vicinity. The men had left her lying on the cold floor, probably thinking she was still unconscious. Though exhaustion weighed heavy on her body and her vision blurred, Eva wasn’t out yet. The will to survive was a powerfu

However, she was in no position to move without drawing attention. She took a slow, controlled breath and cautiously opened her eyes just as the warehouse door swung open. Men hauled in a heavy green chair and a strange machine that looked like it could power it.Her pulse quickened as she heard the hum of the machine powering on. She had to act now or she would lose her last opportunity for escape. The thought of what awaited her if she failed sent a wave of nausea through her, but she couldn’t afford to dwell on it. There was no room for fear now. Only action.The leader entered behind them, clapping his hands in delight. “Perfect! It’s even better than I imagined,” he said, his voice dripping with sick enthusiasm. He ran his hand lovingly over the chair’s surface, like an artist admiring a masterpiece.The leader’s glee was palpable as he admired the electric chair, running his hand over the cold metal again as if it were some prized possession. It wasn’t just a tool for torture,

Despite being pinned to the ground, the man lashed out with the knife, but Eva was prepared. She dodged his wild swing, her attention shifting to the warehouse door. The rest of the men were still outside, preoccupied with unloading supplies.Her brief distraction gave him an opening. He grappled with her, nearly flipping her over his shoulder.‘Judo practitioner, huh.’ Eva realized. Since she already knew his fighting style, she instantly predicted his next move. She adjusted and quickly sidestepped his next move with precision.“Sorry, buddy. But I don’t have time for this kind of entertainment.” She muttered, slamming her hidden blade into his body. She didn’t hesitate. Each strike was calculated, aimed at vital points. The man struggled in her grip, but Eva didn’t relent.She knew she had only one shot at this. One chance to escape before they strapped her into that chair and unleashed a world of pain on her. Her survival depended on it. It was his life or hers.Blood soaked his

Eva stood poised, her body a coil of tension as the men advanced toward her. Her voice cut through the tense silence like a blade, mocking and unbothered. "Mercy? What kind?" She tilted her head slightly, as if seriously considering their offer, but her eyes were sharper than her words. Her brow creased into a frown when she realized the weird stance the men before her were in and the expression they were trying to hide. It was subtle, but the way their eyes shifted from her to the boxes stacked around her gave away their fear. Was that why they were so wary? They weren’t just after her, there was something in those crates, something valuable, maybe even dangerous. From her vantage point, Eva noticed the lids on the crates were barely secured, almost as if someone had hastily thrown them on and from where she was standing, she could easily reach out to whatever was inside. Probably she could find something inside one of the crates that could change the odds in her favor. “Woman, sho

For the past few days, Christine had kept a low profile, following Tanya’s advice to wait for the right opportunity. Her previous schemes had failed miserably—each attempt to sabotage Eva had only backfired, making Eva look even more poised and untouchable. But Christine wasn’t the type to accept defeat.If she couldn’t surpass Eva professionally, then she would tear her down personally.Her mother, Laura, had been the one to plant the idea in her mind. "If you can’t win on the battlefield they’ve chosen," Laura had told her, "then change the game. Make them play on your terms."And that was exactly what Christine intended to do. This time, she wouldn’t just aim for petty sabotage—she was going to destroy Eva’s reputation completely.…………Early in the morning, Eva’s phone buzzed non-stop.Gossip sites, entertainment blogs, and even major media outlets were exploding with headlines:"Supermodel Eva Caught in Scandalous Affair with HB Industry CEO!""Is Eva Using Her Influence to Secure

Meanwhile, Eric, who had been silently watching the interaction, let out a small scoff. “So this is what I wasted my time for?” he muttered under his breath.Gwen immediately shot him a glare. “Excuse me?”Eric smirked slightly, shoving his hands into his pockets. “You barged in here like it was urgent, but all you’re doing is dragging her out for a photoshoot?”“Oh, I’m so sorry,” Gwen said mockingly. “I forgot you were Mr.Cross's bodyguard and not his secretary. If it bothers you so much, maybe you should have stayed outside instead of following me in.” she said, though she knew that he was Damien's secretary but still said that to irk him.Eric chuckled darkly.’This crazy human being.’ “Believe me, I wouldn’t be here if someone didn’t insist I help her get past the receptionist.”“I did not beg—” Gwen started before cutting herself off, clenching her fists. “You know what? Forget it. I don’t have time to argue with an overgrown ice cube.”Eva, who had been watching the entire exch

Eva leaned back against the couch, patting her stomach in satisfaction. "I have to say, I really outdid myself picking that restaurant," she mused.Damien, who was already sitting behind his desk, raised a brow. “You outdid yourself? All you did was order the food. I don’t remember you being the one who actually cooked it.”Eva scoffed, sitting up straighter. “Excuse you, do you know how much effort it took to pick the best dishes from that menu?”Damien smirked. “Oh, I’m sure scrolling through a menu and pointing at things was exhausting.”Eva gasped, placing a hand over her chest dramatically. “Wow, Damien. I put all this effort into making sure my husband doesn’t starve, and this is the appreciation I get?”Damien let out a chuckle, the warmth in his gaze betraying his otherwise teasing expression. “Your husband could have easily ordered lunch himself, you know.”Eva narrowed her eyes. “Really? Because from the looks of it, you were buried under so many files that you probably woul

Gwen strode into Cross Enterprise’s grand lobby, her heels clicking sharply against the polished marble floor. She just got back from where she had told Eva she was going and had tried calling Eva multiple times, but as expected, Eva was too busy flirting or whatever she was doing with Damien to answer her phone.Glancing at the time, Gwen muttered under her breath. “If she doesn’t come out now, Victoria’s going to have my head.”With no other choice, she let out an exasperated sigh, and approached the receptionist’s desk.“I’m here to see Mr. Cross,” she said, adjusting the strap of her handbag. “Let me through to the top floor.”The receptionist, a young woman with perfectly styled hair and an unbothered expression, simply smiled. “I’m sorry, miss, but you don’t have an appointment. I can’t let you in.”Gwen blinked, momentarily taken aback. “What?”The receptionist gave her a polite but firm look. “Without an appointment, I can’t let you through. Company policy.”Gwen narrowed her

As Damien led her to the couch, Eva suddenly halted, making him turn with a questioning brow.“You know,” she mused, tilting her head with mock seriousness, “before you interrupted me, I was actually offering a very expensive consultation service.”Damien crossed his arms, amusement twinkling in his dark eyes. “Oh?”Eva nodded, tapping her chin as if in deep thought. “Yes, I used to charge companies millions for my insights. So technically… you owe me.”Damien let out a low chuckle, stepping closer. “Let me get this straight,” he said, his voice rich with teasing authority. “You walked into my office, sat in my chair, went through my documents without permission—and now you’re asking me to pay you?”Eva grinned. “That’s business, Mr. Cross. Nothing is free.”Damien smirked. “And what if I refuse to pay?”Eva pretended to think, then shrugged. “Then I guess I’ll take my brilliant mind elsewhere.”Damien’s eyes darkened slightly, but he played along. “That would be a shame. Tell me, Mrs

Minutes passed, and Eva quickly grew bored.She had been in Damien’s office many times, but she still found herself looking around. It was immaculate and organized, but it lacked anything personal. Nothing in this room screamed Damien—except for the towering stacks of documents and reports on his desk.Her eyes narrowed as she walked over, running her fingers lightly over the ridiculous amount of paperwork.“No wonder he barely has time to eat.” She muttered, shaking her head.The sight of his overwhelming workload triggered a familiar ache in her chest. She remembered her past—being buried in work, managing her father’s company alongside Mark. She had spent countless nights drowning in documents, starving herself to meet deadlines, and yet… no one had cared. Neither her father nor Mark had ever asked if she had eaten.Her fingers clenched slightly against the papers.She had left that life behind, yet here Damien was, doing the same thing to himself.Determined to help him, Eva sat i

The sleek black car pulled up in front of Cross Enterprise, and Eva didn’t waste a second stepping out. Instead of the casual home-cooked meal she initially planned, she had opted for something more refined—a gourmet lunch from one of the most renowned restaurants in the city.“Wait here,” Eva told Gwen as she adjusted her coat.Gwen smirked knowingly. “Of course, take your time, lover girl.”Eva rolled her eyes but didn’t argue. She knew exactly what she was doing. There was no need to hide anymore—not after the scandal had already made headlines, exposing her connection to Damien. So, she walked into the building with confidence, her heels clicking against the polished marble floor of the grand lobby.The moment she stepped inside, all eyes were on her.Employees, visitors, and executives alike paused in their conversations, their gazes snapping toward the stunning supermodel who had just entered the headquarters of one of the most powerful companies in the world.It wasn’t just her

--- After the Fitting As Eva stepped off the platform, Gwen handed her a bottle of water. “You handled that beautifully.” Eva took a sip and smirked. “Christine’s getting predictable.” Trix rolled her eyes. “What’s next? Tripping you on the runway?” Eva chuckled. “If she does, I’ll be ready for that too.” Christine might have thought she could sabotage Eva with clumsy tricks, but Eva wasn’t easily shaken. When they got to her room, Eva sighed in relief as she kicked off her heels, rolling her ankles to ease the tension. “What’s my schedule looking like today, Trix?” she asked, rubbing her temples. Trix scrolled through her tablet, barely glancing up. “You have a photoshoot with Victoria this afternoon after you wrap up here.” Eva groaned, sinking into the plush chair. “Can’t we reschedule? At this point, I can’t tell if she’s just dedicated to her work or if she’s obsessed with overworking me to death.” Gwen chuckled, settling onto the couch beside her. “She’s taken a real l

The fashion house hosting the campaign had scheduled a fitting session for all the models. The room buzzed with activity as assistants, designers, and stylists adjusted gowns and accessories. Eva arrived, poised and confident, dressed in a sleek black dress. Gwen and Trix trailed behind her, chatting about the campaign’s recent success. Christine was already there, surrounded by a few stylists, her laughter deliberately exaggerated as she chatted with a designer. Eva ignored her and focused on her fitting. A stylist handed her an elegant white gown, its fabric shimmering under the lights. It was one of the most anticipated pieces of the campaign, and Eva knew this photoshoot would be critical. As she stepped onto the fitting platform, Christine made her move. A designer approached Eva with a clipboard, giving her details about the shoot. Christine, pretending to walk past, "accidentally" tilted a cup of coffee in Eva’s direction. Time seemed to slow. The dark liquid splashed on
