Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 19: I don't believe he any more.
Killian aggressively lunged at Kirk, grabbed Kirk by the collar, and punched him repeatedly in the face. If it had been the day before, Kirk would have easily knocked Killian down, but now Kirk didn't have the strength to fight back. I was appalled at Killian's brutality and cruelty in treating his son like that. I need to do something, or Kirk will be beaten to death by him. I looked around the room and saw a chair; I didn't hesitate to use it to hit Killian's muscular body. The chair broke into pieces. He turned to me with a devilish look on his face, his face dark as a storm. "Filthy little bitch! You dare hit me?" Killian growled; he stopped hitting Kirk and started attacking me. I stepped back in panic. I can run away now, but I can't leave Kirk. I didn't see Kirk move; he seemed to have passed out. After that, he slapped me with his strong arm, my eyes darkening. I fell down unsteadily. He grabbed my collar and warned, "Do you want to die?" I was gasping for breath; my heart

Steven seemed to go into a state of shock when he heard my harsh and cold words. I can clearly see his jawline protruding; he appears very angry. His handsome face, like a statue, gradually turned red. For a moment, my emotions were shaken by his words. But after everything that happened, I completely lost faith in Steven.Steven sneered, gritted his teeth, and said, "I didn't expect you to let go of the relationship so quickly.""Oh, what are you saying?" I glanced at Sharmaine and calmly said, "Wasn't it you who first shook it off? We've been nothing since you kicked me out because of a fake woman. I'm not your sexual partner anymore.""Ah. I haven't even thanked you yet, Sharmaine. Because thanks to your shameless work, I am as free as I am now. This position of mate, I give it to you."Sharmaine's face turned gloomy, her eyes darkened with rage, she couldn't seem to keep her composure any longer, and fiercely said: "You bastard! Who the hell are you to insult me?""Sharmaine, retr

Steven waited for me to calm down; he gently kissed my forehead, making my heart skip a beat; he said:"Now I want to hear you explain everything to me, okay?"I shyly sat back in my chair, facing out the window to avoid his gaze."Can you give me some time? Now I'm exhausted; I want to rest." I refuse his request. Before, I really wanted Steven to give me a chance to say everything, but now I want to give up. I'm so tired that I don't care what anyone thinks of me anymore."Okay. Then we'll go back to my mansion."I sat up when I heard his suggestion. I quickly said, "No. I won't go there again. Please take me to the hospital."I noticed the panic in Steven's eyes; he turned me around, his eyes scanning me from top to bottom and vice versa. Steven asked, worry creasing his forehead."Charles hurt you?"He gritted his teeth and said, "I have to kill him.""I'm okay. I want to go back there to meet someone. Besides, you should also go to the hospital to have your hand bandaged."I pushe

Sharmaine remained silent, just staring at me. I know I guessed right what Sharmaine was afraid of. I think what she feared will never come true because I'm just a substitute. I realized the stupidest thing of mine was the illusion of my place in Steven's lap. "If nothing else, you should go away and hold onto him. After this, you and Steven don't come to disturb my life." I say. "Diana," said a cold voice from the darkness that sent shivers down my spine. Steven slowly approached us. "What did you just say?" Steven's face darkened. I see the coldness in his eyes, the bitterness after being betrayed, so many years without love. I try not to succumb or panic in front of him. When I Saw him, my anger gradually rose; I wanted to curse the man standing before me. I always go through every moment alone, yet he suddenly entered my heart, making me flutter. He was the one who gave me a desire for love, but it was he who extinguished it. I cocked my chin arrogantly and said, "From now on,
Last Updated : 2022-09-15Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 23: Calliope - she showed up.
That night, Kirk and I stayed up late, and I realized that Kirk wasn't as bad a person as I thought. It's just that since childhood, Kirk has lived with evil and cruel father, so he has infected his personality. I was surprised by the fact that Kirk has a younger sister and is currently living with his mother."Why don't you go with your mother?"I asked in a low voice.He heard me ask, and his eyes became sad. "I don't want to be with my stepfather. So I chose to stay with Killian. My mother and sister often visited me in the past, but since they saw me as a mean, depraved, grumpy person, they stopped coming. Gradually, my mother and I became more distant, and then we completely cut off contact."I feel our situation is the opposite. I wanted to go with my father, but I couldn't, and Kirk refused to go with my mother. How ironic this life we are!"What about you, Diana? Do you still have contact with your father?" Kirk asked."No. Since my father left my mom and me, I have not receive

Everyone who saw Steven's appearance was shocked and bewildered; their eyes looked at him apprehensively as they let him witness this chaotic scene. "Calliope, can you explain? Why are you here? Why hit my staff?" Steven questioned Calliope, who didn't seem to recognize me yet. But what does he say, "my staff"? What's that supposed to mean? I was startled; maybe Steven is the CEO they mentioned. Liam ran up to him and timidly explained: "Sir, I'm sorry for letting you witness this. I will deal with it quickly." "Why didn't you stop this in the first place? Is everyone standing here a scarecrow?" Steven said angrily. "Liam, did you see other people assaulting your employees without taking action to stop them? No one has the right to look down on my employees, even as a customer. Or things like this often happen here, so you are not too surprised." Liam was afraid to turn pale; his voice was a little shaky: "Not at all, director. This… because Miss Calliope refuses to cooperate, so…

I thought that it would all end here when I said such unintentional words to Steven. But no, he followed me on the bus. It was at rush hour, so the bus was crowded and packed. I swiped my card, then quickly got into the car. However, the bus still hasn't moved because Steven hasn't paid the fare yet. Everyone focused on Steven with irritated eyes. He stared blankly at everyone, not understanding what was going on.At this time, the new driver voiced a reminder:"Do you want to pay with cash or a monthly pass?"Steven seemed to have understood the problem; he glanced at me as if afraid I would disappear and took his wallet from his breast pocket to pay for the bus fare. Steven looks at his wallet and frowns; I can guess his problem.For the first time I saw him lose confidence and awkwardness like that, he stammered: "I currently…have no cash. Can I…swipe with a bank card?"Everyone else was surprised at Steven riding the bus with no cash on him. They laughed at this. As for me, I was

The first time I met Diana, I was captivated by her pure beauty. Although she has many similarities with Calliope, their beauty is different. If Calliope has a sharp, seductive beauty, Diana brings a gentle, sweet, clear, like spring. My heart suddenly fluttered when I looked into those black eyes that shone with a strong desire to live, sparkling like the stars in the galaxy. The galaxy belongs only to me.However, I don't know why I got angry when Charles said she was a prostitute. And she ran away while receiving guests. At that time, I thought it was just a temporary feeling, and I was about to give up. But the earnest pleas and the glimmer of hope in Diana's eyes made it impossible for me to refuse.When I saw the bruises on her body, I thought of Charles's words again, it made me feel uncomfortable, and my anger exploded. I don't understand why I lost control like that. I never thought of myself as rude, but I did terrible things to Diana. Her wretched look made me feel a pang o

Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 78: I had my own happy ending.
I thought our life was peaceful, but no, something terrible happened. Steven and I got a phone call saying that Odelia got lost while playing in the amusement park and still had yet to find her. We went there immediately. Steven mobilized many people to find her in the park, but Odelia was nowhere to be found.I was so scared, and I cried and called out my daughter's name in vain. Odelia is our treasure, and nothing can happen to her. Three hours have passed, but all the police stations in the city have not received a call about a lost child. At this point, I'm sure someone kidnapped Odelia for ransom.I've been through a lot of fear in my life, but I've never been this scared. It's slowly killing me since I can't find Odelia. If something happened to her, I would never forgive myself. I have never felt so hopeless as I do now. Now, we have to wait for the phone of the person who kidnapped Odelia."Diana, I'm sorry. I…." Zelda said as she sobbed loudly, her trembling hand gripping min
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 77: Sweet wedding night
We woke up the following day, arms and legs still entwined as the sun shone through the thin curtains. Steven was so energetic last night, bringing me into a world filled with lust. If I hadn't fallen asleep because I was so tired, maybe Steven wouldn't have had any intention of stopping.Steven kisses my forehead; he leans on his elbows and looks at me lovingly and possessively, making me a little embarrassed. I stroked his silky hair and said, "Good morning, my love!""Good morning sweetheart!" He kissed my white neck; his warm, melodious voice whispered in my ears as if seducing me.I stretched and moaned softly as my whole body was the red kiss marks left by Steven and my entire body ached from last night's lovemaking. I whispered, "I don't know if I have the strength to get up after last night."Steven leaned on the top of me and said in a loving voice, "If you can't walk, I'll carry you."I giggled, wrapped my arms around Steven's neck, and actively kissed his lips a deep kiss.
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 76: Our true love and vows.
"Sir, if you don't believe me I can testify for Steven and Diana. They truly love each other. Although I am not Steven's biological sister, we always consider each other a family. I have witnessed all of his emotions when he loves Diana, happy, sad, sad... All they have for each other is a sincere love. The words I say today are attested to by God."Zelda's voice surprised me quite a bit. Suddenly, a lot of people I used to know: Phelim, Muriel and her parents, Felix and Rowan, Karla and the colleagues who had worked with me at Skyline, now working as wedding caterers, stood up and said:"I can also testify to Steven and Diana's love."The person we didn't expect the most was the Mafia boss, Steven's cousin; he stood up and said in a serious voice: "Me too. I know a secret from Steven. He will never shed a tear in front of a girl he doesn't love."Theodore shrugged and said, "As you can see, Steven cried in front of Diana. This proves that he loves his bride very much.Their actions m
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 75: The truth is finally revealed.
I could very clearly feel Steven's body shaking now. Maybe he was too surprised when I appeared in front of him. His eyes sparkled, looking at me with affection and tenderness. His tears fell because he was so happy that I had become his bride. I reach out and carefully wipe away the tears that roll down Steven's cheeks.After that, I glanced down at where Darius was sitting with Zelda's mother, his face full of anger, his bloodshot eyes staring at me. It was late, and there was nothing else he could do now that he had discovered that the bride today was not Zelda. Because if he stood up to prevent this wedding, it would mean that his everything would be exposed. Now he can only grit his teeth and accept it.Next, the priest's voice was heard to reduce the noise of the ceremony."Can we continue?"Steven was too emotional to speak, so I was forced to answer on his behalf. "Yes, Reverend. Please forgive us. Maybe he was just too emotional to be like that."The Pastor smiled and nodded
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 74:
Tomorrow is Steven's wedding day, and newspapers everywhere have reported on social networking sites. And, of course, there were articles congratulating Steven's happiness. Still, there were also many articles saying that this marriage was just a lie presented by the chairman of Sunwell Group, causing the Royal side to begin to suspect doubt. I know this because Steven called me yesterday and told me everything. Maybe those articles were created by Sunwell's competitors to discredit Steven and bring down Sunwell Corporation.I'm back in New York and ready for my plan. I definitely won't let them achieve that goal.7 am at Sunwell Group hotel.Steven's wedding was held at the biggest hotel in the city. Because the number of guests coming to the wedding ceremony is very large. Those are Sunwell's business partners, not only that but also the group's competitors, who took the opportunity of the wedding ceremony to add fuel to the fire to crush Sunwell. Their primary purpose for coming he
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 73: I started working on the plan.
On the way to the hospital, I called Nick to ask about Alan's health. Nick said that Alan was not only severely injured physically but mentally as well. Before Nick took Alan to the hospital, I figured that too. How could a five-year-old child endure that? I went through the same thing as Alan, so I know very well how horrible that feeling can be. To this day, it still haunts me. This will probably be challenging for Alan, Clyde, and me.I raised my hand to rub my temples, my voice becoming heavy:"Nick, help me find the best psychiatrist here to treat Alan when he's released from the hospital."Nick quickly replied politely: "Yes ma'am."After that, I continued to call Steven, and in less than a minute, I heard his familiar, warm voice ringing in my ears."I was going to call you, too. Is Alan OK?""You have read the news already. Maybe Alan needs both physical and psychological treatment."There was a moment of silence between the two of us, and then Steven said apologetically, "Um.
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 72: Final judgment for traitors.
There was a commotion all around. All eyes were on us. They were curious, not knowing what the truth was. There were disdainful eyes, treating this as a pastime; they used it to bet, between Fiona and me, who would die. I nodded, motioning for my bodyguard to give the document to Theodore, but to my surprise, Fiona snatched it and tore it to pieces. Theodore's expression changed; he didn't seem to believe his eyes. Perhaps he also understood that this impulsive act of Fiona was proof that she did something shady behind his back. Fiona still didn't stop; she tried to tear the document to make it deformed. But she didn't know that it was just a trap that I had planned in advance to expose her true face. "Fiona, you really are stupid. The real proof is still here." I held it up high and shook the document in my hand. Fiona looked up at me with a look of indignation and panic. She quickly got up and rushed towards me to destroy the evidence, but my bodyguard was able to stop her in tim

They disregarded my words and burst out laughing. A guy with a poked head, with a large centipede-shaped scar on his face approached me, glared at me and spoke in a threatening tone."Who do you think you are to say such things? If you don't want me to cut your tongue, get the hell out of here. This is not a place you can enter."As he said that, he pulled a dagger from his pocket and danced it in front of me to threaten. He thought this might terrify me, but he was wrong. Today, I must make Fiona kneel in front of Alan to ask for his forgiveness.I ignored them and directly entered the lavish mansion, making the man with the scar on his face angry at being looked down upon by a woman. He bellowed like a wild beast: "Stop whore!"He said and rushed towards me. Immediately, I pulled the gun from the side of a bodyguard walking beside me and without hesitation, I shot him straight in the thigh. The sound of gunfire made them all startle; it was like a signal to start an upcoming war.My
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 70: Deal with the ignorant.
Today is the next court date, and the court also ordered Alan to be present. Although I did not attend the trial, I discovered what was going on through Clyde's attorney. Listening to her narrate everything today made me extremely angry and frustrated. He seemed to want to let go of everything and accept his defeat. Clyde is thwarting her attorney's efforts, leaving her frustrated. And Alan kept crying and refusing to accept Fiona, but that didn't change anything. And from now on, the court also allows Fiona to see Alan regularly so that she can make up for Alan's feelings. Not only that, but I also received a message that I was not allowed to see Alan as I was not his biological mother. I'm sure Fiona made this. Somehow she managed to convince the judge to make such an absurd decision. I'm damned if I'm going to let her get away with that.Later, I asked some bodyguards to investigate this and learned that the judge was on pretty good terms with Fiona's husband. A quick look at the d
