Married To The Disabled CEO Chapter 69: A Fractured Trust
Ethan sat in his study, poring over a mountain of documents that detailed the precarious state of his company. The once-thriving empire he had built was now teetering on the brink of collapse. His shareholders, emboldened by his temporary absence and weakened position, were aggressively pushing for his removal from the board entirely.Despite the apparent chaos in his professional life, Ethan felt a strange sense of peace when Emma was around. Her presence was a balm to his frayed nerves, her quiet strength anchoring him in ways he hadn’t anticipated. But with every moment of solace, a nagging doubt clawed at the back of his mind.---That evening, as Emma returned from a brief visit to the local pharmacy, she found Ethan waiting for her in the living room. His piercing gaze unsettled her.“You’re back late,” he said, his voice calm but edged with something she couldn’t quite place.Emma smiled, setting down her bag. “I stopped to pick up a few things for your therapy. I thought it mi

The tension in the room had begun to dissipate after their heartfelt exchange. But the underlying tension of their situation was still there, a constant reminder of the challenges they faced together.Ethan had been fighting his own battles for weeks now—the frustration of his disability, the pressure from his board members, and the knowledge that everything he had worked for was slipping through his fingers. But somehow, with Emma by his side, he felt like he could keep fighting.---The next morning, Ethan was still grappling with the mounting weight of his responsibilities. He sat in his study, eyes scanning over the contracts that seemed to pile up faster than he could manage.Emma entered, carrying a cup of coffee, and placed it gently on the desk before him. Her presence was calming, a silent reminder that even amid chaos, there was something worth fighting for.“You don’t have to do everything yourself, Ethan,” she said softly, her voice a stark contrast to the sharp clicking o

The days that followed seemed to blur together for Ethan. Every morning, he woke up to the same heavy burden, the same mountain of work, and the same overwhelming pressure. His body ached from the long hours of physical therapy and the emotional exhaustion of constantly fighting against the inevitable. Yet, each time he looked at Emma, something in him shifted—something that made him want to keep going.Emma had become his anchor, his reason to push through the dark days. She had started to take charge of his daily routines—her presence was a source of both warmth and stability. But even more than that, Emma had begun to fill a role in his heart that he hadn’t known was missing. Her quiet strength, her gentle support—it was something that softened the rough edges of his world, making everything a little bit more bearable.Yet, Ethan couldn’t shake the nagging feeling that he was holding her back. He had come to care deeply for her, more than he had ever expected to, but the weight of

The sound of soft rain tapping against the window filled the quiet room, creating an almost serene atmosphere. Ethan sat at his desk, his fingers brushing the papers scattered in front of him. He was slowly regaining his strength, though it was a battle—physically and emotionally. Despite his progress, a lingering fear gnawed at him: What if he wasn’t enough? What if his disability forever held him back from the man he used to be?Emma had noticed the subtle change in his demeanor, the way he seemed more withdrawn, lost in his thoughts. She could see the pressure he was placing on himself to return to the life he had before the accident, a life where he was in control, powerful, and successful. But he wasn’t that man anymore—not physically, anyway. And Emma feared he wasn’t acknowledging just how much he had already overcome.One evening, as they sat on the couch, Emma watched him, her eyes full of concern. She had been trying to find the right moment to speak her mind, to voice what

The rain had stopped by the time Ethan and Emma ventured outside, a cool breeze rustling the leaves of the trees that lined the driveway. It was early afternoon, and although the sun was struggling to break through the clouds, there was a renewed sense of energy in the air.Ethan had been through the most difficult part of his journey: the realization that he couldn’t just return to the life he once had, but had to build a new path for himself. But now, with Emma at his side, things seemed a little more possible, a little more hopeful.As they walked together toward the garden, the soft sound of their footsteps on the gravel echoed in the quiet surroundings. Emma was unusually quiet, her thoughts deep, as if she was processing everything that had happened over the last few months. Her heart was in a whirlpool of emotions—love, fear, hope—but most of all, a deep sense of affection and gratitude for Ethan.She glanced at him as they walked, her eyes soft. The transformation in him was e

The morning sun filtered through the curtains, casting a soft golden glow over the room. Ethan was already awake, his gaze fixed on the window as he watched the world outside begin to stir. His thoughts were preoccupied with everything that had happened over the past few weeks—the progress with his legs, the newfound sense of peace, and most importantly, Emma. He couldn’t help but smile as he thought of her.Emma stirred beside him, her soft breathing the only sound in the room. She was still asleep, her features peaceful and unguarded, a stark contrast to the woman he had first met. Back then, she was a stranger, a woman forced into a marriage she didn’t want, hiding behind walls of silence and resentment. Now, she was his partner, not just in name but in every sense of the word.He hadn’t realized how much he had needed someone like her until she had arrived in his life. Emma’s quiet strength, her gentle touch, her quiet resilience—it had all brought something out in him that he tho

The sky had turned a pale orange as the evening settled in, casting a warm glow over the room. Emma sat beside Ethan, the steady rhythm of his breathing soothing her. He had been quiet for a while, lost in thought, something she had come to notice when his mind was preoccupied.She hadn’t seen him this focused in weeks, maybe months. The projects they had started together were beginning to show potential, and the spark of hope in his eyes was something she hadn’t seen in a long time. It felt good to see him this way, driven and eager, even if it wasn’t the grand return to his previous life he had imagined. They were building something, piece by piece.“Penny for your thoughts?” Emma asked, breaking the comfortable silence between them.Ethan blinked, his gaze shifting from the window to her. His lips curled into a small, appreciative smile. “Just thinking about how far we’ve come.”Her heart swelled with warmth. “We’ve come a long way, haven’t we?”He nodded, his fingers brushing ligh

The morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a golden hue over the room. Emma stirred, blinking sleepily, and stretched her arms above her head. She could feel Ethan's presence beside her, his warmth radiating even in sleep.It had been a week since their heartfelt conversation, and Emma still couldn't believe how much things had changed. She had finally come clean about her secret, and Ethan had accepted it without hesitation. It was a new chapter for both of them—one that felt more like a partnership than ever before.She turned to face him, her heart warming at the sight of his peaceful expression. Even with all the chaos surrounding them, she found solace in these quiet moments together. Ethan had always been strong, but she could see the vulnerability beneath the surface. And that vulnerability made him even more endearing to her. It was a side of him she’d rarely seen, but now, more than ever, she was determined to protect it.Ethan stirred, his eyes fluttering op

The next morning, Ethan woke up feeling lighter than he had in years. The weight of his past mistakes and regrets still lingered, but they no longer crushed him. Instead, they served as reminders of how far he had come—and how much he still had to do.As he descended the stairs, he heard Emma’s voice in the kitchen. She was humming a soft tune while preparing breakfast, a domestic scene so peaceful that it momentarily took his breath away. For a man who had spent years cloaked in cold indifference, this newfound warmth was both unfamiliar and welcome.He entered the kitchen and leaned against the doorway, watching her. Emma turned around, her face lighting up when she saw him.“Good morning,” she greeted, handing him a cup of coffee.“Good morning,” Ethan replied, his voice unusually soft. He took a sip, savoring both the coffee and the moment.****Later that afternoon, an unexpected car pulled into their driveway. Ethan frowned as he glanced out the window, recognizing the sleek bla
Married To The Disabled CEO Chapter 152: A Ray of Hope
Ethan sat by the large window in his study, staring out at the garden as the winter sun cast long, golden shadows on the frost-kissed grass. His once proud and commanding presence had been softened by months of rehabilitation and reflection. Yet, deep inside, the embers of his determination still burned, fanned by Emma’s relentless support.Emma entered the room with a steaming cup of tea in hand, her footsteps light but purposeful. She set the cup on the table beside him, her gaze lingering on his face. He looked better now—healthier, more alive—but the weight of his recent trials still rested heavily on his shoulders."How are you feeling today?" she asked gently, pulling a chair closer to him.Ethan turned to her, his lips curling into a faint smile. "Better, thanks to you. I’ve been meaning to say..." He paused, his fingers tracing the edge of the armrest. "You’ve done more for me than anyone ever has. I don’t know how I can repay you."Emma shrugged, her expression teasing. "You
Married To The Disabled CEO Chapter 151
The morning sunlight bathed the expansive Johnson estate in a warm glow, but inside Ethan’s office, the atmosphere was anything but serene. Ethan sat at his desk, his wheelchair positioned at an angle that gave him a clear view of the sprawling garden beyond the windows. Documents, spreadsheets, and reports were scattered before him, but his attention was miles away.Emma had become a presence he couldn’t ignore. Her voice, her laughter, even her sarcasm had carved a permanent place in his life. But this morning, she seemed different—quieter, distracted. He noticed it the moment she entered the room with a tray of breakfast."Good morning," she greeted, placing the tray on his desk.Ethan glanced at her, noting the faint circles under her eyes. "You didn’t sleep well," he observed.Emma shrugged, forcing a smile. "You’re not my only patient, you know. I had some late-night calls.""You could’ve woken me up," Ethan replied, his tone teasing but laced with genuine concern.Emma snorted.

The silence between them stretched as Ethan’s confession lingered in the air. Emma didn’t press him further; she knew from experience that forcing him would only make him retreat deeper into his shell. Instead, she stood and began pushing his wheelchair again, letting him set the pace of their conversation.As they rounded a corner of the garden, the estate's sprawling fountain came into view. The cascading water glimmered under the late afternoon sun, creating a serene atmosphere that contrasted sharply with the storm of emotions Ethan was wrestling with.Emma broke the silence, her tone light but meaningful. “You know, when I was a kid, I used to think fountains were magical. I thought if you tossed in a coin and made a wish, it would come true.”Ethan arched a brow, his lips curving slightly. “And how many wishes did you make?”“Countless,” she admitted with a soft laugh. “Most of them were silly—like wishing for endless chocolate or a pony. But there was one I made every time.”“W
Married To The Disabled CEO Chapter 149: The Shadows of the Past
The gentle hum of birds in the garden wasn’t enough to silence the storm brewing in Ethan’s mind. Emma walked beside him, her hand lightly resting on the handle of his wheelchair. She had insisted on pushing him, despite his protests, claiming it was “therapeutic” for them both.Ethan, for once, relented.The garden was sprawling and serene, the afternoon sun casting golden streaks across the well-manicured hedges and blooming flowers. Emma guided him along the cobblestone path, her chatter filling the silence he was so used to.“And you wouldn’t believe the amount of trouble I got into sneaking textbooks into my room,” Emma said with a soft laugh. “My parents thought I was obsessed with novels, but in reality, I was devouring medical journals.”Ethan glanced at her, intrigued despite himself. “You really went through all that to study medicine?”Her smile faltered briefly, but she nodded. “It was the only thing that made me feel alive—like I had a purpose. Being the unwanted daughter
Married To The Disabled CEO Chapter 148: Breaking the Chains
The day unfolded with a tense stillness that neither Ethan nor Emma dared to break. He had retreated to his office, burying himself in work, while Emma busied herself with household tasks. But the unspoken words between them lingered like a storm cloud, threatening to break at any moment.By afternoon, Emma decided she couldn’t take the suffocating silence any longer. She found Ethan in his office, his wheelchair angled toward the large mahogany desk cluttered with files. His brow was furrowed in concentration, but she could tell he was using work as an excuse to avoid their earlier conversation.“Ethan,” she said, stepping into the room.He didn’t look up. “If this is about breakfast—”“It’s not,” she interrupted, her voice steady. “It’s about us.”Ethan’s hand stilled over a document, his jaw tightening. He sighed and finally looked at her. “There is no ‘us,’ Emma. I thought I made that clear this morning.”She crossed her arms, refusing to back down. “You don’t get to decide that o
Married To The Disabled CEO Chapter 147: Newfound Vulnerabilities
The morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting soft, golden hues across the spacious bedroom. Ethan stirred awake, his sharp mind quickly remembering the events of the night before. He turned his head to find Emma still fast asleep, her face relaxed in peaceful slumber.For a moment, he allowed himself to admire her, the way the morning light caught in her hair and softened her features. She looked so different from the stubborn, opinionated woman who often challenged him. Vulnerable, even.What am I doing? he wondered, a pang of uncertainty creeping into his chest. This wasn’t part of his plan—letting anyone in, letting her in.He carefully moved to sit up, his legs still lifeless and frustratingly uncooperative. The wheelchair sat by the bedside, a reminder of his limitations. Ethan’s jaw tightened as he transferred himself to the chair, a motion he had perfected out of necessity.He didn’t notice Emma stir awake until her soft voice broke the silence.“You’re up early.
Married To The Disabled CEO Chapter 146: A Night of Vulnerability
Ethan sat alone in his study, the faint hum of the city below barely registering in his mind. The meeting had taken more out of him than he cared to admit. His hands rested on the wheels of his chair, his body rigid with unspent tension.Emma’s words from earlier lingered in his mind: You’re not alone anymore.He clenched his jaw. What did she know about loneliness? About survival? Yet her stubborn determination to stand by him, even when he pushed her away, made him question everything he thought he knew about relationships.A soft knock broke the silence.“Come in,” he said, his voice sharper than intended.The door creaked open, and Emma stepped in cautiously. She was dressed in casual attire, a stark contrast to the poised professional who had accompanied him earlier.“Ethan,” she began, her tone tentative, “I know you hate interruptions, but I couldn’t sleep. I thought…” She trailed off, holding up a tray with two mugs. “Coffee?”He stared at her, unsure whether to send her away
Married To The Disabled CEO Chapter 145: Secrets Beneath the Surface
The sun peeked through the curtains of Ethan's penthouse, casting a golden hue over the sleek, modern decor. Emma stirred on the couch, her medical journals scattered across the coffee table, evidence of another late night spent studying. Her peaceful slumber was broken by the faint hum of Ethan's wheelchair as he maneuvered into the living room.He paused at the sight of her, her hair slightly disheveled and her expression serene in sleep. A flicker of warmth crossed his usually stoic features, but it vanished as quickly as it appeared."You're going to ruin your back sleeping there," he said, his voice firm but quieter than usual.Emma jolted awake, blinking groggily before registering his presence. "Good morning to you too," she mumbled, stretching."You have a bed, Emma," Ethan said, rolling closer.She shrugged, giving him a sheepish grin. "The couch was closer to the coffee. Priorities."Ethan let out a quiet sigh, shaking his head. "Get up. We have a meeting in two hours."Emma
