Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO worry?
Chapter 56Ruby paused at Jaxon’s sudden confession and when he saw that she wasn’t saying anything else, . He tried to pull away but Ruby wouldn't let him. She grasped his hand tightly and tugged him until he faced her."Jaxon, I’m very sorry that I defiled your orders and left?" She apologized again, unable to hide the pain in her voice. Her eyes had turned glassy but she fought to keep from crumbling in front of him."Please say something," she pleaded. Ruby pulled at his sleeves to get him to look at her. In truth, to get any reaction out of him at all. She wasn't used to Jaxon showing no emotion especially when you did something to piss him off."I'm sorry about what I did, I shouldn't have gone there." Ruby apologized in a shaky voice. She was so close to letting her tears fall. She had apologized to him when they were on the plane, but she felt the need to do so again. Maybe because she needed more reassurance."I'm sorry," she whispered.One moment she was in front of him as s
Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO Cranky
Chapter 57With the sudden time alone, Ruby decided to take a nap to clear her head. Barely thirty minutes in, her phone rang and woke her up. She was still groggy from sleep as she felt blindly on the bed for her phone."Hello?" She answered with a yawn, then rubbed her eyes to try to keep them open."Pack your bags, I'll come pick you up in two hours." Jaxon's demanding voice came through the receiver. Ruby's eyes widened and she sat up urgently when she processed what he said."Pack? Where are we going?" She asked as any trace of sleep vanished from her eyes.When they arrived in Russia, she saw a suitcase containing her clothes that Jaxon must have packed after she passed out from Kevin ordeal, so she actually thought that they were going to spend a longer time in Russia. "The airport, and don't be late. We fly out to New York tonight." Jaxon replied impatiently. "But why so soon? Surely we can stay a little longer?""No we can't. I never intended to stay in Russia long." Jaxon e
Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO Tortures
Chapter 58Jaxon’s car stopped in front of an abandoned warehouse that looked like it would fall at any moment. The walls were cracked and the old yellow paint was chipping off. Lucas opened the door for him and immediately he stepped down a scowl made its way to his face and he started cracking his knuckles. “Let the games begin.” he said menacingly.He followed Ruslan who was walking ahead of him and the guards that were stationed at the door respectfully bowed when Jaxon passed them. The room was dimly lit and it had a strong stench of blood and other bodily fluids. Jaxon pinched the bridge of his nose in disgust. A battered figure was tied up on a chair with their legs bound in tight ropes and their hands tied tightly behind the chair. Jaxon gave a sadistic smile as he stared at the battered figure whose head hung limply. “I see you have been enjoying the hospitality of my boys.” Jaxon said with a smile.Kevin slowly raised his face and It was littered with bruises, his lip

Jaxon was practically vibrating with anger and exhaustion when he finally got home in the evening. His whole body felt heavy and he could feel a headache coming but he ignored it and pulled off his jacket which he threw on the couch and removed his tie, with an annoyed sigh he unbuttoned his shirt and made his way to the kitchen. He opened the last cabinet at the top and took his favorite mug. He walked to the coffee machine and started it up. A smile made its way to his lips as the smell of fresh coffee hit him. He picked up the cup and took a sip of the pure black liquid. He felt refreshed as he went back to the living room and sat on the couch. He brought out his phone and started going through mails, replying to the important ones related to the projects he is working on and ignoring the ones he deemed irrelevant. His phone screen lit up and a text message from Damon popped up on the screen.“I just sent you a copy of the contract we will be offering Mr. Lee tomorrow, please
Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO Flirt
Chapter 60Damon pulled up at the large apartment complex and checked his phone to make sure he was at the right building. He didn't know why landlords liked having similar looking buildings right next to each other,he thought wryly as he glanced down the street to see two more nearly identical apartment complexes.He made it to the front of the building before his phone chimed in his pocket. He reached for his phone and saw Jaxon's contact flashing across the screen. He wasn't surprised because he swore Jaxon had the uncanny ability to call him at the right time. He definitely knew Jaxon was calling to ask about any developments. And warn him off doing anything that he didn't ask, Damon thought with a smile.He flicked the screen and took the call. "Hello,""Have you arrived?" Jaxon's cool voice came through the line."I've just arrived. I'm outside the apartment complex as we speak." He replied. He shoved his other hand into his pocket and looked down to admire his shoes. He had
Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO Traffic
Chapter 61 Jaxon was taking care of a few things before they would leave the house, even after killing Kevin, he still did not feel satisfied. The bastard should have suffered more.Jaxon already informed Ruby they would leave in an hour and a half to beat the traffic.There was still time on her hands so Ruby decided to pamper herself and take a soothing bath instead of a regular shower. It was a hot day out so she opted for a dress instead of a pants outfit. She chose a floral dress that hugged her bust and flared at the waist, showcasing her nice figure. The dress stopped a few inches above her knees so her legs were on display.Satisfied with her appearance, she glanced at the clock for the third time in the last hour noting that there was still twenty minutes before they left.She met Jaxon in the living room casually scrolling on his phone. He stopped when he heard her footsteps then looked up and froze. Ruby cleared her throat and Jaxon blinked rapidly before standing on his

Ruby was still flushed as the car came to a halt in front of a modern mansion. She was still overwhelmed by all the sensations that went through her body in such a short span of time.She shyly glanced at Jaxon who was waiting for the driver to open the door for him and their eyes locked.“Like what you see Gem? You can ogle me all you want later but shall we go meet your in-laws first?” Jaxon smirked as her blush got darker.He got down from the car and stretched his hands to help her out.Immediately she got down, he grabbed her waist and steadied her.Ruby felt like running back home and hiding away in the safety of her soft bed and duvet.She felt embarrassed as the guards gave them a funny look.She looked up and glared at Jaxon who was looking so calm and composed which was the exact opposite of how she felt.She felt like kicking him for doing that when he knew fully well that they would be visiting his family.She wondered just how good he was at keeping his emotions in check
Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO Get pregnant
Ruby stared wide eyed at Keith and she felt lost for words as his question kept repeating itself in her mind.I’m dead.How am I supposed to reply to that? I can’t allow them to find out that we haven’t had sex because we are not really a couple and neither can I lie that we have cause my stupid ass might start to stutter judging by how nervous I’m feeling right now. Ruby thought.Well technically we almost had sex she thought and blood immediately started rushing to her cheeks at the thought of their car adventure, in the office as well and ke kisses her.“Well grandpa we are both very healthy adults and married so of course we uhm do what every married couple do and stuffs” She laughed nervously and grandpa smiled.“I’m not referring to stuffs Ruby, I'm talking about sex. Do you both have sex with each other or is Jaxon too busy to make time for that?” Keith stressed on the word sex and Ruby awkwardly coughed.She can’t believe her in-laws are interested in their sex life and she cu

Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO Epilogue
Epilogue."Avery, be careful with your brother, he's still too small to do that," I told my five-year-old daughter.Her brother, Jeremy was a bustling toddler who was a few weeks away from turning a year old, but even a bouncy castle was a bit too much for him."Mom, what if he goes on for a little while.""How about you both go play in the playpen instead, hmm. Where's Emerald?" Her sister wasn't anywhere I could see but I had an idea of where she could be."With Dad," Avery said then guided her brother towards the playpen.Sure enough, just out of my line of sight, Emerald was playing with Jaxon. A smile tugged at my lips as I watched them, I didn't bother interrupting and strolled back into the villa to get us some lunch.Five years might be a long time for some people but to me, it had gone by in the blink of an eye.If I had told my younger self that she would get married to one of the richest men in the country and go on to have a beautiful family, she would have probably called

"Jaxon, they are so beautiful," Ruby whispered to him as they watched their daughters sleep. It all still felt unreal to her. Just a few days ago, she still had both of them in her stomach and she had been as large as a whale. But now, she had two little humans who she called her own children.They were both their father's daughters. They had the same slightly tan skin as Jaxon with blond hair. They were identical with the exception of their eyes.One had really deep blue eyes like her and the other had lighter blue eyes like Jaxon."They are." He said."Shh, be quiet or you'll wake Emerald up," Ruby hissed as she glanced at the thankfully still-sleeping baby. Emerald was his mini-me, her eyes were the same shade as his and she had a knack for waking up at the slightest noise. Ruby knew it had been a nightmare to get her to go to bed the first two nights they had come home."Are you sure Avery won't be the one to wake up?" He said, then pointed towards the baby who was moving a lot i

The food Jaxon and Ruby were having for dinner didn't sit well with Ruby. Nothing seemed to entice these days. She was really nauseous and if she took another bite, she was sure she was going to throw it all up. Her stomach was basically at her throat so eating had become quite the hassle. And the pain she was feeling didn't help her feel any better."Something wrong with the food?" Jaxon asked, a brow raised as he popped a piece of meat into his mouth."Everything is." She sighed. She had been pushing the food around her plate for a few minutes now."So you want something else?... Are you okay, you look a bit unwell, is it the meat?" The space between Jaxon's brows furrowed as he asked her."It's not... Maybe... I don't know. I'm just feeling a bit of pain in my stomach." She told him, and as if to make a point, a sharp pain stung just below her belly button and she leaned over and expelled a deep breath."Gem?" Jaxon's voice wobbled out."Just... Give me a moment." She took deep br

Ruby was vibrating with excitement and she felt like she couldn’t stand still anymore.Jaxon was no different but he was doing a great job concealing his excitement as he stared at his smiling wife.The doctor greeted them with a smile. She guided them to the exam table and started arranging the equipment for the ultrasound.“Please lay down on the bed Ruby and lift up your shirt.” Jaxon helped her to gently lay down and lifted her beautiful maternity gown. He smiled down at her and sat beside her.Ruby excitedly squeezed his hand that was in hers and Jaxon placed a soft kiss on her forehead in return. The female doctor smiled at their interaction. She could feel the love rolling off them in waves and she felt happy for them."Are you ready to find out the gender?" the doctor asked, a hint of excitement in her

Months have passed and Ruby couldn’t be happier. Things have been going well and life has been good and most importantly peaceful. It was everything she had ever wanted and today was a special day. They would finally know the gender of their baby and Ruby was excited. She couldn’t wait to know if she would be having a little prince or a beautiful princess. She smiled softly as she caressed her protruding baby bump.Ruby’s eyes were filled with a maternal glow, a soft, radiant light that speaks of the joy and anticipation that filled her heart as she gently caressed her stomach.She was standing before the large mirror in their room wearing black shorts and a sports bra.Her lips curved into a smile as she turned sideways and admired the size of her stomach, she couldn’t believe she had life growing within her. Ruby was grateful for this gift. She continued to gently use her fingers to trace her stomach as if she was touching her child. She gazed into the mirror with a look of wonder

Jaxon removed Ruby's hot mouth from him because he didn't want this to be over so soon. He wanted to do so much more.He helped Ruby to her feet and his hands immediately found her plump cheeks. He grasped them tightly, his fingers digging into her flesh then pulled her closer to him until she straddled him on the bed.His lips settled on hers again and Ruby opened her mouth to accommodate him. His tongue clashed against hers over and over again in a duel which he won. He licked around her mouth and Ruby opened it more to him as she let out a loud moan which he swallowed. He bit her bottom lip and sucked it lightly between his lips and Ruby hissed in response.His tongue, teeth, and lips all worked in unison to bring Ruby to a quivering mess of nerves. He pulled away long enough to admire the way her lips were pink and swollen. She looked very flushed, her cheeks colored and eyes glazed over in passion or need. Maybe both, since he couldn't quite tell.He placed a barely there kiss on

The clear sky had faded to a dark blue as the city shifted from day to night life. As Jaxon drove through the roads, he could see some night clubs that had started to open and some people on the streets were dressed elegantly for dinner.Jaxon was calm, or as calm as one could be after he had successfully dealt with the situation concerning June. He didn't want to think of it any longer, all he wanted to do was go home and be with his Gem.He pulled up outside the house and strolled in with the intention of surprising Ruby. But that plan changed when he got a whiff of a heavenly scent coming from the kitchen. Was that steak? The scent of roasted vegetables wafted through the air as well and he wondered what was going in the kitchen. And was Ruby making dinner?He was the one primarily in charge of cooking because Ruby didn't do so often. And he couldn't blame her either because she had a strong fear of fire and it would be cruel of him to put her in a place where she would frequently

June shivered in fear and her heart beat accelerated as she looked up at Jaxon’s darkened eyes. He looked livid.June felt like she was about to faint under his harsh eyes, he was glaring at her with so much anger that she felt light headed from the intensity of the look. Her heart was beating so wildly that it felt like she was running a marathon.June closed her eyes and tightly clasped her hands together on her laps. She took a shaky breath and gathered the courage to repeat herself.“I apologize for locking her up in the restroom on Keith’s birthday… I just wanted to show Keith that I was the better match and she was a disappointment.” June muttered and Jaxon’s nose flared up in anger. He felt like punching her right now.He had accused Ruby of lying to him that day and they even had a fight all because of her. He angrily slammed his hands on her table and June’s eyes started to fill with unshed tears as she shivered in fright.“So it was you! It was all you! How dare you! How cou

"When did you find out about the contract?" He asked and June stilled."I don't -""Don't start with that bullshit talk of you not knowing what I'm talking about. You know exactly what I'm saying and I'm not going to repeat myself." He said annoyed."I- I" she stammered and Jaxon's nose flared in irritation."Oh, and I don't have all day so don't beat around the bush. I would advise you to stop acting like a weak lamb because I know what you did. I know about Serena." He told her and watched as June's eyes widened in shock. June remained silent for a while and her mouth kept opening and closing like a fish."I-i can explain." June let out slowly after she managed to find her voice."Knock yourself out. Don't leave out any details when you're "explaining" yourself, and just so you know, I'm not going to take things lightly with you. Not after what you did. And be careful how you answer this question because your life and company are at stake here.” Jaxon warned.June was taken aback, h
