Mr. CEO, I Came Back To Love You Chapter 52: Charlene's Truth
Charlotte and her mother were at the hotel bar, having a private talk. The first question that came out from Charlene was, "So, Liam Wright. That was quite a surprise. How did you manage that?" Charlene quickly explained her side and said, "Of course, you have always been beautiful. You have this personality that draws people in, but I'm just surprised at how you moved on quickly." How Charlotte wished she could tell her mother about her previous life, but all she could share was her childhood relationship with Liam. She explained, "Mother, you might have forgotten, but Liam was my classmate from primary up to the middle of high school. We have known each other for a very long time." "He pursued me when I was in college, but I was already together with Tim. Sadly, I chose Tim back then," Charlotte revealed. Charlene gave her that look, silently asking her why she chose Tim over Liam. "Don't ask. I regretted my choices back then. I'm only happy I was given a second chance with h

"Westler. Westler," Pete said while digging through his brain. "Yes, the name is familiar. I think that is a last name." "It's been a long time. I would have to think back of Paul's college friends - maybe check the college schoolbook," Pete said while tilting his head from side to side. "It's okay, Grandpa," Charlotte assured. "Rest it up. I'm also tired." She chuckled and revealed, "We spent the day with Liam's family at the house in Braeton. Laughing your gut out with Liam's brothers was exhausting; I think I'll sleep it out before thinking about Victoria again." Two days came and went, and Charlotte was back in Swaxon. They settled in the old Strauss mansion for the night, but they meant to stay in the Diamond Hotel for the rest of the week while Liam would be around. "Are you sure you are going back to work tomorrow?" Pete asked. 'Don't you need more rest?" Charlotte breathed in and said, "I must get back on track. Put me out there if I want to be the next CEO." "Okay," P
Mr. CEO, I Came Back To Love You Chapter 54: Liam's Help
Charlotte arrived at the office building of Strauss Asset Investment. When she went to the lobby, the front desk asked her, "Excuse me. Do you have an appointment?" Charlotte lazily turned to her left and smiled at the two receptionists. She recalled how these two contributed to the gossip of her divorce. Charlotte could not be more thankful. She answered, "Jane and Dee, it's me. Charlotte Strauss." Their jaws dropped, and their eyes rounded. Before they could speak, Charlotte beamed at them and said, "I have to go. I'm running late for the meeting." She sent Arthur a message before hopping into the lift. Once she arrived on the fifth floor, she saw Arthur waiting outside the room. He smiled, saying, "Looking good, Charlotte. I'm glad you are here." "I'm thrilled to be back," Charlotte responded. Arthur entered the conference room first, informing everybody of Charlotte's arrival. She purposely hid behind Arthur's frame, trying to leave them with a sense of mystery. Her husband e
Mr. CEO, I Came Back To Love You Chapter 55: Victoria's Payback
"Think?" Charlotte echoed his words. "Mistake? Oh, that wasn't a mistake, Tim. You had a one-year relationship with Victoria, which you kept from me. You had sex again and again and even used our home. That was deliberate, Tim. It wasn't a mistake on your part." "But I realize now that I was wrong," Timothy said. He extended the flowers to Charlotte and said, "Please, talk to me." "I am talking to you," Charlotte replied. She opened her laptop and started with her work. Timothy sat on the chair in front of Charlotte. He revealed, "I want to make things right." She narrowed her eyes at him and said, "Tim, you did not make a mistake. You and Victoria deserve each other. You should just be satisfied with what you have now. Don't bother me because I am uninterested - Tim, let go of my hand!" Timothy held Charlotte's hand without warning. He said, "We can still do this, Charlotte. We could go back to the way things were. I know you still have feelings for me. We have been together for
Mr. CEO, I Came Back To Love You Chapter 56: Gum On Victoria's Hair
Victoria nearly lost her balance when she turned to Charlotte. The woman before her seriously shocked her that she could not breathe. Her jaws dropped as she softly called her name, "Charlotte?" Resentment flashed in Victoria's eyes because she expected a fat Charlotte who would not dare to wear slim-fit trousers and would look awkward in a red surplice top. She blinked and shook her head. She studied Charlotte's stomach, and sure enough, it was flat. Her thighs were slimmer and firmer looking. Anyone could see how Charlotte's body had toned, even in her clothes. "Victoria," Charlotte called. She gracefully turned to her, resting her hand on her slender waist. Then, she looked at her up and down. She asked, "You look different." A sinister smile became painted on Charlotte's face, and Victoria swore she hated her more! "Victoria." An audible whisper caught her attention. Victoria turned to her left and saw Tamara, shrugging. Tamara mouthed, 'What should we do?' Glaring at her
Mr. CEO, I Came Back To Love You Chapter 57: Naughty Wife
"Shhhh." Liam tried his best to comfort his wife. She clung on to him for dear life, taking it all in. He pecked her forehead, and when she pulled away, he wiped the tears that stained her face. He said, "This proves one thing, but it leaves you with many questions. No matter what, let me carry some of that burden. Don't let it eat you up." Charlotte nodded. She sniffed her tears away and replied, "I knew it. I knew my father could not have cheated on my mother." She looked at the sibling DNA test once more and read the results. It said: [The probability is 0%]. "Then why? Why did they do this to me?" Charlotte hissed, clearly thinking deeply. She raised all her questions, "I need to find out what happened that night. What was the deal with Maddison? Why did she do this? Or could she have another reason for chasing after my father?" "It's possible. There is more to this than what we think," Liam acknowledged. "Let us meet Uncle Yael and the lawyers this weekend. Let us discuss the
Mr. CEO, I Came Back To Love You Chapter 58: The Special Date
"What?" Charlotte asked, seeing Liam's frowning face. Liam climbed onto the bed and said, "You tricked me into doing you at the office." "I don't know what you are talking about. Did I force you to make love to me? You are just crazy about me. Admit it!" Charlotte replied before chuckling. She returned to being busy on her phone, finalizing her plans with Timothy's date. "Will it work?" Liam asked. "I certainly hope so," Charlotte answered. She giggled and said, "Just watch me work my magic." She texted Timothy: [I will wear a red dress and a fancy black hat. You can't miss me. See you tomorrow. Oh, and don't ever tell Victoria. I don't want her to know.] Charlotte sent another text: [Also, don't give the restaurant my name. I don't want anybody to know me outright. You know Grandpa hates you.] Timothy: [I understand, Charlotte. I can't wait. Thank you for giving me this chance.] Truth be told, Charlotte was confused about why Timothy was acting this way. In her previous lif
Mr. CEO, I Came Back To Love You Chapter 59: The Westlers
"Your?" Darren Westler leaned back, looking at Chadwick. "New - partner?" Chadwick coughed violently. He said, "God, no. I don't want to die yet." A laugh left Charlotte's lips, understanding the meaning behind Chadwick's words. She replied, "He is my bodyguard. Wherever I go, he has to go." "I see. Whatever do you need a bodyguard for?" Mister Westler probed. "It's just a precaution," she replied with a smile before she looked around the cozy home of Darren Westler. "Is that Paul's daughter, Darren?" A beautiful lady in her fifties walked in. She had red hair, a charming smile, and was very elegant. "Hi, my name is Ashley. I'm Darren's wife." Charlotte stood up from her chair and shook the lady's hand. She said, "You are beautiful. It's lovely to meet you." Ashley flushed. She said, "You are sweet. Charlotte, right?" "Yes," Charlotte answered. Turning to Chadwick, she introduced, "And this is my bodyguard." "Can I offer you tea or wine?" Ashley presented. Charlotte rais

In an intimate chapel in Swaxon, rows of seats were aligned with turtle tree leaves. The same were adorned with peony and lilac blooms. Chandeliers hang on the ceiling, including hanging wisteria flowers and candlesticks. Gemstones also hang randomly from above, longer ones particularly bordered the aisle. Liam stood in a floral arch, waiting for his bride. He wore a tailor-fit suit as he held his gaze high, his eyes gleaming in tears. Despite having aged and having formed a few wrinkles on his face, he remained handsome and dignified. All his children stood alongside him. His twin boys were to his right. Scarlett Cecilia and Caleb Chad took the other side. Surprisingly enough, their little guy was cooperating with the ceremony. Smoke machines began to emit vapor towards the back of the chapel, and it signaled everyone who attended the wedding to turn to the aisle and turn on their lanterns. Over fifty small lanterns attached to a stick illuminated Charlotte's path. Most of t

Almost three years had passed. Charlotte and Liam's family had a picnic lunch with Carla and Chadwick. The older kids were done with their meals and enjoying their desserts. Only Caleb Chad was still munching his vegetables next to Charlotte. Liam drank a full glass of water and revealed, "Marian and Tony Cash are getting out today." Charlotte wiped her mouth with a table napkin. She remembered how Timothy's parents tried their best to evade imprisonment by delaying their hearing, but in the end, they were convicted of tax evasion. Marian and Tony were sentenced to five years. Charlotte did not even realize it had been that long. She straightened her posture, saying, "Wow, time flies." "Do you think they will be a problem, though?" Carla asked. "No, they won't," Chadwick assured everyone. "Our men have already spoken to Tony Cash. We have sent the message. If they don't bite, we won't bite back. They know not to mess with the Wrights." "So far, Victoria has not been a proble

Two years had passed. "And this year's World Finance Market award for the country's promising investment company goes to Strauss Asset Investments of Swaxon City!" A round of applause echoed across the venue. Company employees who attended the business gathering screamed for joy. At the same time, the host continued to introduce the company, "By the end of last year, Strauss Asset Investments has profited over three billion dollars while contributing generously to the Heart and Lung Center of Swaxon. The same company has opened two other branches, one in Braeton and another in Capmond. Their expansion granted over three hundred jobs." "Their partner, Gravity Ventures, held the same award three years ago, and today, they lead the finance market with the help of Strauss Asset Investments." The host looked at the party where Charlotte and her team sat and said, "Strauss Asset Investments continues to make smart investment decisions, satisfying the needs of their clients. And it is ex

"I, Paul Strauss, take you, Charlene, to be my wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until parted by death. This is my solemn vow," Paul said in front of the crowd. Charlene was crying, taking deep breaths. Paul had to wipe the tears from her face before Charlene managed to speak her vows. In Braeton's biggest Cathedral, Paul and Charlene married again. After holding back due to Errol's death, their union was finally renewed. Charlotte was crying in her seat while carrying Peter. The toddler was sleeping in her arms after running around before the wedding could start. Her other boy, Paul Luces, was still at it, giving his nanny a run for it by the Cathedral's grounds. "I feel it, Mother's happiness. I feel that she is very happy with her second chance," Charlotte said. "And Father too," Liam said, looking at Paul's expression. Charlotte agreed. Paul's eyes were gliste

"Breathe in. Breathe out. Push along with your contractions - I'm so happy to be here right now. Thank you, heavens, for this opportunity," Scarlett said while holding Charlotte's hand. She cried, "My beautiful daughter-in-law is giving me another wonderful grandchild, and I am here to witness it all." Scarlett Wright got her wish come true. Liam's flight got delayed due to air traffic in Swaxon. Scarlett became Charlotte's automatic companion as she gave birth. Charlotte pushed, feeling the pain running down her pelvis. She gasped and was about ready to make another push when Scarlett said, "Don't be afraid. Mom's here. I'll be your strength. Take as much energy as you need from me -" "Okay, Mother. I got it," Charlotte said, trying not to interrupt her mother-in-law. "Arrggh." Scarlett was multitasking. She leaned sideways to see what was happening between Charlotte's legs. Then, she announced, "The baby is crowning!" "You can do it, Charlotte! You can do it!" Scarlett added, le

"So this is how it will work," Charlotte said. She was wearing a white robe around her, and so was her husband. "Liam and I will reveal the gender of Chadwick's and Carla's baby, and they will announce ours." "Everyone got it?" Charlotte asked, giving a thumbs up to their family members. "Liam and I will go first." "We are excited!" Scarlett screamed. "We are all curious why you both are wearing robes!" "That's because," Liam said. "Inside these robes are the truth about Carla's and Chadwick's baby's gender." Carla held Chadwick's hand from her seat and said, "I'm feeling nervous." The couple was back at Samantha's and Ethan's mansion to have the gender reveal party, which every one of the Wrights, based in Braeton City, attended. Pete and Cecile had traveled with Charlotte and Liam, whereas Paul, Charlene, and Lucinda were just in town. Carla had no problems with the venue because it gave her brother and mother an alibi for a longer trip. If the event were in Swaxon, it would

"Charlotte?" Frank called. "Should we postpone the meeting?" Charlotte opened her eyes and realized she was in the conference room, having a meeting with the executives. They had a short break while the internet was being restored, and Charlotte took a moment to doze off in her chair. A chuckle left her lips. Charlotte reasoned, "Sorry. It's the pregnancy hormones." "Oh, I know. My wife also suddenly sleeps in the middle of anything," Xander teased. "But you always came back rocking, Boss. We have no complaints." "Internet's back up, Boss," Ming said. "Right," Charlotte said before looking at the screen before her. "Carry on." "As you can see, Boss, our competitor, A&D Mutual Fund, has followed our investment tactics. I can't help but be annoyed," Ming remarked. Charlotte smiled. A&D Mutual Fund was the competitor company that supposedly hired Shane Westly, Jim Ash, and Billy White. Even Xander jumped into working with them in Charlotte's past life. However, with the knowledg

" You found me all messed upYou found me down on my luckSo lost, but then I woke up in love" ~ Chadwick's and Carla's wedding party was a blast. They entered, dancing to the tune of Woke Up in Love by Kygo, Gryffin, and Calum Scott. Carla raised her arm, lifting her bouquet as the guests congratulated them. Visitors included some of her followers on social media, her co-actors from Pacific Lifeguards, co-workers of Chadwick within Liam's security team, Charlotte's and Liam's family, and Boris. While Carla fluidly danced to the music, Chadwick looked stiff but tried to dance along. "Go Chadwick! Go, Chadwick! Haha!" Charlotte laughed while clapping her hands. She turned to her husband and encouraged, "Look here and cheer Chadwick on!" Liam shook his head the entire time. He said, "Just let me remember Chadwick as a stiff lad. I can't imagine him dancing." "Aww. This is another side of Chadwick that I haven't seen before," Scarlett remarked, smiling at Chadwick. She and her hu
