Mr. CEO, Marry Me On Conditions [The CEO's Replaced Bride] Chapter 121 : Left!
Ivanna"Mama!" Chrissie's soft tone hits my ear and I feel her moving. I immediately wake up and look over at her.My hand is still placed on her stomach. She has fallen back to sleep again. I just smile at her lovingly. She calls me like this almost a few times every night and I don't mind at all. In fact, it makes me feel better. As I strive to push my body back, I feel pain all over my back due to bending down like that. I stretch my body and put on the sheets neatly, covering her body. Nuzzling her hair, I place a kiss on her forehead. Looking up, I see the time. It's 3:20 in the morning. I stand on my feet to stretch my body properly and turn to walk a bit. Just then, my eyes widen at the sight of Christian sleeping behind on the couch.When did he come? Is he really here or am I just seeing stupid stuff after waking up at this hour?I walk towards him. The cabin has only one light turned on in one corner and I can clearly see his face through it. He's rubbing his arms while b

Ivanna"Don't— don't! Don't leave me"I jump off from raw sleep when I hear Christian blabbering and shaking against me. Terrified, I look over at him. "Chris!" I panic and rub his chest in concern, scooting onto his lap. "Chris, what happened? Baby, what's happening?" "Don—" his voice hitches when he opens his eyes wider, terror filling them. He's sweating and shaking. "Chris! Are you okay?" I take his face into my hands and nuzzle his cheeks gently. He gawks at me as if he can't believe I'm there. He just keeps staring at me without a single word. But his veins are still shaking. "Hey! What's wrong?" I soften my voice. "What's happening?"He holds me tightly and looks deeper into my eyes."You're here?" He asks with unreal joy and nervousness in his voice. "Yes. I'm here. I'm here with you, baby", I whisper and scan him closely. He sighs so deeply that it tenses me more. "You're not leaving me. Are you?" His voice cracks with literal fear and longing. What's happening to him

ChristianI reach the location Lauren sent to me and meet the officer in charge. "It would be great if his mother was here. We only allow the guardian. Even though Mrs Emily isn't his legal guardian", the officer says."There's no option left anyway", I say, walking near him through the corridor. "You think you can handle him?" He asks."I sure hope so", I chuckle."He's been screaming all the time. Our team is really scared of him by the way", he laughs."Kid has got some major anger issues already", I laugh back."What can we expect when he's brought up by a criminal?" The officer sighs. "All the best"He opens the door of a small cabin for me and walks away. I surge inside, tucking my hands into my pocket. That eight-year-old kid is sitting at the edge of the small bed, dangling his legs. There's a cartoon show screening on the television but his eyes are darting at the ground. He has curled up his face. "Hey, buddy!" I lean against the wall, crossing my arms.He immediately lo
Mr. CEO, Marry Me On Conditions [The CEO's Replaced Bride] Chapter 124 : Reality Check
ChristianShould I make it inside or not? No, I have decided that I'm doing it. There's no way back. I look out of the car's window, still having second thoughts if I should meet Andrea or not. I don't wanna be late. The nightmare I had last night seems to be the beginning only. I don't wanna develop lifetime issues because of Thea and her stupid tactics. But I'm not sure if I'm doing the right things. Andrea is Ivanna's therapist. Even though I know she keeps privacy, I'm feeling anxious about it. Letting out a deep sigh and bracing myself, I come out of the car and surge towards the building. "Mr Scott?" Andrea's assistant reaches me. "Dr Andrea has been waiting for you. Please come inside"She opens the door and I come inside, anxious. "Good evening, Mr Scott", Andrea welcomes me with a wide smile."Good evening. I'm sorry for the sudden appointment. Especially after your shift is over", I say."No issues. Please have a seat", she folds her files and drifts her focus to me as I

Kane"New York is insane", Emily exclaims, slumping onto the bed and breathing heavily."I told you we can hang out tomorrow. You look tired as hell", I shrug, getting a water bottle from the fridge. "Two days aren't enough to hang out. Are they?" She groans. "That's why it's a mini vacation, Mrs Wife", I kneel on the bed near her. "Come on. Have some water"She raises her hand while lying on her back. I grab it to support her in getting up. "So, are you done with your presentation today? Because there's no way you're running back to work from tomorrow. This is the first time I have been to New York"She takes the glass from me and sips it. "But guess what. I wasn't the one to be so excited to come here. You were. But you were so boring the whole evening, Kane", she rolls her eyes. "As if I dragged you here deliberately""Nothing like that", I laugh slowly and tuck her locks behind her ear. I couldn't focus on anything after talking to Christian. He said Samuel is in Texas, under

Christian"My assistant mistakenly got tickets to the delayed flight", John says on the call. "Delayed? Of how many hours?" I exclaim and immediately strive to sound normal as I realise I was sounding too loud.They were about to board the morning flight to return to Texas. I'm worried about the transplant procedure tomorrow. Patricia said they needed to bring Thea for a casual check-up. And the most important thing is I don't know if they will be able to make it back to Texas until tomorrow. That's so messed up."Not much. We'll be boarding this evening and hopefully, we'll reach Texas before ten at night", he says, giving me a bit of relief.Thea didn't call or text me after the last time I replied to her. Even though I was pretty much at peace, I couldn't stop being concerned about the change in her decision. Her silence is the scariest one. "That's great. I'm relieved that you and your team tackled the week so gracefully. I can't imagine the pressure of sudden action. Hopefully,
Mr. CEO, Marry Me On Conditions [The CEO's Replaced Bride] Chapter 127 : Numb
ChristianI clench my jaw and click my tongue against my cheek walls, inhaling deeply. Ivanna says I often do this when I'm controlling my anger. Why am I thinking about her right now? Because she's never out of my head. But I want her to stay out of my head from now to afterwards. Which I know is next to impossible. I hear the clicking sound of heels against the floor as Thea walks towards me. "It was not exactly a surprise to me", I say in a pressed tone and look up. She crosses her arms, stops by the desk and smirks. "You were expecting me?" She whispers, dancing her eyebrows."Yes. Because I'm compelled to expect you over here", I say. "But not so fast. Of course""Well—" she lets out a deep sigh and walks towards me. Leaning back to the desk, she scoots over the desk, hell closer to me. She crosses her legs, brushing against my thigh and slides her hand around my neck.I gulp down. Again. I roll my eyes. I inhale deeply. I press my lips tighter. Only to control my frustratio
Mr. CEO, Marry Me On Conditions [The CEO's Replaced Bride] Chapter 128 : Chasing her
ChristianMy breath hitches and no words escape my lips. Her eyes are straight into mine, devastated and terrified. The next moment, she drives her eyes away and holds onto the door as if she's tripping over. Her body shudders against the door and she rolls her eyes, darting onto the floor. Her lips part open and she breathes heavily.All of that happens in just a few seconds. And every second seemed like the longest one. My brain freezes the moment she again looks up at me. Her eyes are not pooling with tears and her jaw is clenching. I have never seen her in this much anger and pain before which I could see only in a couple of seconds. The nightmare again flashes in my sanity and it ices me on the spot. She was looking at me the same way she was looking at me right now. The same anger and pain filled her eyes. She was numb in the same way.That fear crams inside me again. What if from this moment, the nightmare comes true? To my terror, it does. Ivanna doesn't say a thing and turn

Mr. CEO, Marry Me On Conditions [The CEO's Replaced Bride] Epilogue
JohnGetting married in the 50s isn't that strange anymore. But for me, it was— for a man who believed his marriage would last forever and then believed he would never marry again. I stood before the mirror as Ryan helped other groomsmen with their last fit."You all look pretty handsome. Ready to leave. But I wish Kevin had that time to get a good fit. Your suit sucks!""I feel better anyway", Kevin snarls. I chuckle while fixing my bow tie, watching my sons in their 20s still fighting like toddlers. It's been a blessing for me to have a family which didn't break even after the biggest disaster. And maybe it was because, in our family, it had always been us. Me and my two boys. Their mother wasn't there. The death was just a formality. I didn't really change that much. My boys were happier than ever after she died. It's really mean of me to think that way but it was the truth. They were traumatised because they were kids. As they grew up, I realised they had a better and healthier

Tiffany Emery runs to Sebastian. "Da—dy"And he immediately drives his eyes down and takes her in his arms. They both look at me lovingly. Now, I don't feel bad about pushing the wedding. This feeling would not be the same if we got married before Emery came. Ryan and Kevin walk beside me to the aisle. I wanted them to do this honour because if there's anyone in this world I still love more than Sebastian and Emery, My eyes become teary as I walk to them. Sebastian spreads his arm at me and I immediately dig into his chest.He leans closer to my ear."My beautiful bride"I smile against his chest and look up. He takes my hand and leads me to the centre. I take a look at every one. John, Mr Ryder, Gary, Myra, Christian, Ivanna and the recent teenager Chrisanna. Everything feels so complete and beautiful. Mr Ryder comes and takes Emery from Sebastian even though she doesn't wanna go. With the pastor's words, Sebastian and I looked into each other's eyes deeply. "I, Sebastian Ry

TiffanyI can't figure out how to react and what it's all about because I don't wanna assume anything unreasonable. He's on his knees with a damn ring.It means— God! I can't— comprehend it. My eyes flutter open at his handsome face. No words come out of my mouth. I'm at a loss of words."I know you're shocked! And I'm sorry if I scared you with this sudden—" he doesn't complete, yet keeps his eyes straight into mine. "But I couldn't keep this longer inside me, Tiffany. I had known a long time ago that I needed you in my life. Forever! And I'm not scared to ask you that—"With that pause, my heartbeat stops and my entire body shivers when I wait for him to complete."Will you marry me?" I feel goosebumps littering all over me with those words. Did he really ask me for marriage? It takes me a while to process. His eyes are full of fear and hope and I'm left in shock. Never in my wildest dreams, I had imagined he would propose to me. I hear some people around cheering up and root

TiffanyTime indeed flies like air and it happened in my case in a better way. In the best way, actually. I started my job in the daycare centre with all the lovely kids around which made my life less monotonous after Ryan and Kevin left. They are doing good in their new school and John has also settled into his new office over there. I and Sebastian balanced our life beautifully, supporting each other. As days and weeks passed, our love grew stronger. Among everything, I was happy with the fact that I have my identity now. A good identity. My salary doubled in just three months after joining for my good service and the way all the kids related to me. In a year, I was promoted to manager of the daycare centre, life couldn't be any less beautiful. It's been two years, I and Sebastian are together and we are living our best life. We hardly argued and most of the time it was just silly. He loves to tease me and I go along with it. Sebastian has become the most demanding lawyer in the

TiffanyWe spent the last two days painting the house and I can't describe how beautiful it came out. We did some changes like replacing the furniture and donating some. If everything goes well, I'll be here in less than three days.John has finished all the preparations in Hong Kong and he's leaving the day after we decided to move in. It all happened so fast but I'm glad that John is recovering. It's been eight months since the tragedy and I know it's gonna take years for him to overcome this. I'm happy for him but I would be happier if there was any chance that he finds someone to love him as much as all of us found a person to love.It sucks and I hate the fact that all his life he never found someone like that.I and Sebastian carry the portrayal I had in my room for years. It's a huge one and Sebastian suggested we should place it in the living room because it's beautiful. It's a painting I got from an art summit years back, featuring a mother and her small daughter, surviving

Sebastian"Really, Sebastian? I have never seen you this excited before", Georgia says as I show her some themes I'm confused with and I end up telling her the whole plan. "Isn't it something to be excited about?" I blurt out. "She's moving in with me. Isn't it amazing? People can't even go past dating and we are really moving in!" I tell her and she smiles wider, sitting in front of my desk."That's true", she says. "I'm just wondering what you would do once you guys announce the marriage!" she laughs but on a serious note, it makes my heart stop for a while.She pauses, looking at me. "Sorry. I should not have said that?"I chuckle. "Nah! Nothing like that. I just spaced out when you talked about marriage""Ah! So, that means you're thinking about it", she leans to the desk. I scratch the back of my head with an awkward smile. "I could marry her the moment I saw her! But hell! I'm not repeating any mistakes from the past. Maybe, I'll wait for a while before proposing to her. And t
Mr. CEO, Marry Me On Conditions [The CEO's Replaced Bride] Chapter 294 : Got a way
Tiffany We stop by the nursery. It's one of the biggest nurseries in the city which I can completely believe by the way it looks. The boys run into the green surrounding and I and Sebastian slowly walk to see the plants. One of the workers accompany us, showing us all the kinds of plants we could use for decor. "I want the real ones", he says as I scan those plants which need no sunlight. They would be perfect for indoors."These are real ones too. These are just indoors", I say, watching his expression change. "But I still don't find the realness in them. You can take these. I'll look for others", he walks away to find his REAL plants as I shake my head at him in disbelief.We load all the plants we have got for the decor and Ryan and Kevin took two small ones to plant in the yard. Even though they won't be staying here, they wish to see it all grown up when they would occasionally visit. After that, we stop by a restaurant to have lunch. Surprisingly, Sebastian didn't suggest h
Mr. CEO, Marry Me On Conditions [The CEO's Replaced Bride] Chapter 293 : Preparations
Tiffany We talked a lot today. I'm glad that I took this whole day out for him because we needed to have this conversation. I have finally decided to move in with him. Nonetheless, it'll come with more challenges and I'm ready for it. This decision will not only make our relationship stronger but also give me a world of my own. I can't wait to finally live my life in my own conditions and happiness. Sebastian asked me if he could help me anyway. But I refused to take any help from him as I did with John. It's my call to explore and look for opportunities which I'll be doing from today. I'm thinking about having a conversation with John again. I want him to change his decision of holding back until I settle down. Because that's impossible. I'll need a lot of time to clean the mess and organise my life and I think I'll surely do it if I have Sebastian.I'm glad that Sebastian understood me and more than that he trusted me enough. I'm scrolling through my phone to research the jobs I t
