Mr. CEO We're Done! I Served Him A Divorce!
Vivian's Pov"Bullshit!" I cursed from the bottom of my chest as I watched the TV. The news channel headlined "Top actress and supermodel Goergia see linking arms with CEO of Vale Tech - Syrus Vale." I threw the coffee mug I was holding shattering the television. I had seen these reports before, but this one hurt more.That good for nothing husband promised to come home for my birthday, yet here he was, not just late, but fooling around with another woman, not just any woman but his ex-fiance to boot. I was the one who married him in the end, but it never felt like Syrus left her behind.I looked at the dinner table, still set with candles and the meal I spent hours making. The cake I baked sat there, untouched, its frosting melting. My hand shook as I picked up my phone and saw a message. It was a photo from Georgia. She rested her head on Syrus’s shoulder while he smiled, a smile I hadn’t seen in years.My breath caught in my throat. I felt stupid for holding onto hope. My frie
Last Updated : 2024-09-20Mr. CEO We're Done! No Longer Their Bidding
Vivian's PovI didn’t take a single penny from the divorce settlement. Syrus scoffed as I walked away, probably thinking I was foolish for leaving behind the wealth and status his name came with. What he never understood was that I had never touched the money he gave me. I had supported myself all these years, refusing to depend on him for anything.When I returned to the mansion to collect the last of my things, I heard laughter from the living room. I paused, recognizing the voices of my mother-in-law, Nancy and Georgia.“She said she’s divorcing my son! As if that greedy woman would ever walk away from this family’s wealth,” my mother-in-law cackled.“It’s a shame,” Georgia added, her voice dripping with fake sympathy. “If things had been different, I might have been your daughter-in-law instead.”“Oh, don’t say that, dear. Vivian and Syrus were never a good match. You two would have been perfect together.”I pushed open the front door, and the two women on the couch went silent. A

Vivian's PovI stood there, watching the man I once loved display his blind devotion to Georgia, and I couldn’t help but question how I had been so foolish for so long. I felt no desire to linger in their twisted drama any longer. As I turned to leave with my belongings, Georgia’s voice stopped me.“I would never admit to something I didn’t do! Why can’t you believe me? Do you really think I ruined your marriage out of spite? I’ve barely been around you two. I’m only here to film a movie. Why must you target me?”Though she spoke to the room, her words were clearly aimed at me. I almost laughed at how ridiculous this family had become—one fool blindly in love, another conniving for personal gain, and Syrus, seething with misplaced hatred, ready to lash out at me any second.Syrus turned to me, venom dripping from his voice. “If you didn’t set this up, then who did? Who else would go after Georgia like this, besides you?”I sighed, too tired for this nonsense. I addressed Georgia direct

Vivian's PovTwo hours later, Georgia emerged from surgery, and the doctor’s awkward expression caught my eye.Syrus, absorbed in concern for Georgia, didn’t seem to notice. “How is she? Will she be okay?”The doctor cleared his throat. “Her injuries weren’t severe. We’ve stitched the cuts and are running some tests as a precaution. She should stay overnight for observation, but she’ll be fine.”I couldn’t help but smirk to myself. Just as I suspected, the whole ordeal had been blown out of proportion. The medical staff seemed embarrassed by the fuss, dragging out the process to cover up how minor it really was.Syrus, relieved, hurried after Georgia’s stretcher. He didn’t spare me a single glance. I watched him go, a deep ache spreading through my chest. The man I had loved for so long didn’t even see me anymore. I wanted to scream, but I stayed silent, letting the grief settle over me.My phone buzzed in my pocket, and I froze when I saw the name on the screen. I let it go to voicema

Vivian’s POV “She must be made to face the full wrath of the law!” I kept hearing Nancy’s voice the moment we arrived with the cops at the station. I was right after all.Belinda glared at her, and if looks could kill, Nancy would surely be dead by now. Somehow, I am grateful and relieved that someone who looks out for me is with me to face the sharks in Syrus’s family.“She came into the house and stole from me!” Nancy was yelling at the top of her voice. Belinda made to respond to her, but I grabbed her hand gently and whispered to her, “Don’t pay attention to her now, Bel. We will handle her when the time is right,” and for once, Belinda obeyed me. We maintained our calm and allowed Nancy do all the shouting and raving. Not too long after that, Syrus walked in with Georgia. I didn’t even notice they had come until Belinda drew my attention.“Just take a look at them,” Belinda said. “They look horrible together. I wonder what man in his right senses would ever want to be with a

Vivian’s POVIt has been three weeks since the incident with Syrus and his egoistic and manipulative mother. The nights have become better for me as I now sleep peacefully.“Great job, Vivian, you have made us proud,” my boss, Dan, called out cheerily. Ever since I started working here, he had been showering me with praises. At first I was uncomfortable, because I did not want the old staff to feel jealous or threatened, but then again, I got to realize that he extended the accolades to everyone, which is why everyone loves Dan.“Thank you, Dan,” I responded with the same energy and went on to doing my job, but Dan walked up to me, staring down at me with a scrutinizing gaze. “What is it?” I asked him.But Dan kept staring at me. In fact, as I raised my head to ask him what the problem was, he stared deeply into my eyes, making me a little uncomfortable. “Is there something on my face?” I asked Dan as I used my hand to wipe my face.“Are you unwell?” Dan eventually asked me.His ques

Vivian’s POV“I cannot be pregnant! I cannot be pregnant!” I yelled and cried at the same time in the living room.My dad, Manny and Belinda sat still and watched as I rant and pace about the room. The least thing I was expecting was pregnancy, and to think that it was right after I divorced Syrus.“Don’t you want a baby?” My dad asked gently, not wanting to piss me off further.“You mean babies,” Manny chipped in.The word ‘babies’ rang a loud bell in my ears. Babies! What would I do with triplets as a single mother? I was only beginning to find my bearing after a nasty divorce. How am I supposed to cope without a husband? Fine, I know my family and Belinda will ever be present for me, but this is not how I had hoped to live life for heaven’s sake!“Don’t you want a baby?” My dad asked again, more gently this time around.It was obvious to all of them that I was furious and mad as hell. Unable to respond, I broke down in tears and wept bitterly. My dad and Manny looked at each other
Last Updated : 2024-10-01Mr. CEO We're Done! His Plan
Vivian’s POVI stared at him, dumbfounded. For a moment, we both stared at each other without saying a word, more like taking in each other. The last time we had seen each other had been at the station when Nancy had me arrested.I cannot dispute the fact that Syrus looked extremely good-looking just standing there in his pants that clung to his thighs and leather jacket that held onto his muscles. I would have been swooned by his appearance, but I wasn’t, and it actually made me happy that his presence was not affecting me that much as it used to. “What do you want here?” I asked without bothering to be welcoming. Syrus certainly did not deserve any form of hospitality from me, not after all that he has done.“Can we talk?” He asked me. I was a little taken aback that his tone was very much calm instead of angry and shouting the place down, just like his mother.“Are you here to accuse me of theft again?” I said crossing my hands over my chest as I stared up at him. Our height diff

Mr. CEO We're Done! Her Mother's Biggest Regret
Georgia’s POVEven though Georgia was practically asked to leave the house, she was still giddy with excitement. The announcement plan certainly went exactly the way she wanted it. The shock and hurt was evident in their faces, especially Vivian’s, and Georgia could not have been happier.“I deserve an Oscar for this!” Georgia told herself with pride. As far as she was concerned, she was a good actress, and also, she had been able to steer the entire situation to her favor. Georgia knew that the next person that Vivian would run to was her best friend, but then again, she already had that part sorted out. One thing Georgia had noticed knowing Vivian and Belinda was that Belinda was literally Vivian’s backbone, and in the world of bringing an enemy to the ground, one would have to destroy the backbone first, or keep it at bay, before attacking the main enemy. Georgia hadn’t bothered with Belinda when she made her first strike by having an affair with Syrus, because she knew that they
Mr. CEO We're Done! The Devil's Advocate
Vivian’s POVI had no intention to shed tears, but I could hardly believe what just happened.Georgia was pregnant…for Syrus.We are divorced now, I understand, but that did not make it any less hurtful. I felt my heart shattering into a million pieces. The same woman that Syrus had an affair with, that caused me to divorce him, is now pregnant for him. So they have truly been in a relationship all this time. It wasn’t a new gist, but somehow, I had thought and hoped that it was all a lie. I watched Syrus as he read through the pregnancy result, and from the look on his face, Georgia was truly pregnant. I also noticed the look Georgia gave me; scornful and triumphant, and my heart broke.“It is a good thing your lawyer is here, Syrus, so that he knows that things are legal now,” Georgia said, breaking the silence.Syrus’s lawyer, Davis, stretched his neck and took a look at the result, and he shook his head. “Should we sit down and make things legal?” Georgia asked. “Wait, what?” Sy
Mr. CEO We're Done! Once Is Enough
Georgia’s POVThe shock on everyone’s faces gave Georgia more joy than she ever anticipated.“What…what are you talking about?” Syrus stuttered, utterly stunned.All Syrus’s pomposity and pride deflated, and it was evident in his voice. Georgia absolutely liked that, because it also gave her the chance to walk through all of them into the living room. While they looked at her in shock, she glanced around the living room. Georgia could not deny that it was cozy and luxurious.“So this is the place Syrus got for Vivian,” Georgia said to herself spitefully. Hatred, anger, and bitterness towards Vivian bubbled to the surface, and Georgia had to force herself not to scream. Every time she tried to make Vivian pay, things ended up being in her favor. Syrus had not spent a dime on Georgia ever since she met him; well, aside the first time when they had that wild and abrupt affair, and she only money she got from Syrus was giving her money when he wanted to leave the hotel, which Georgia had
Mr. CEO We're Done! The Big Announcement
Syrus’s POVSyrus and Davis arrived at the apartment he rented for her. The apartment was not just empty, but it was locked, so Syrus and Davis had to stand outside, which Syrus felt extremely embarrassed as he kept muttering under his breath. Davis kept checking his wristwatch and stomping his foot, waiting impatiently.“Did you call her to ensure that she was home?” Davis asked Syrus, trying not to sound as impatient as he was actually feeling.Syrus threw Davis a warning look. “I am just asking, Mr. Vale, because I do have a court case in less than two hours that I actually need to prepare for,” Davis said.He knew that he was standing on thin ice with Syrus, and his best job was actually on the line, so he needed to act accordingly, but at the same time, he had a very important court case to attend to. When he had taken the contract to Syrus, he had expected that Syrus would just collect the contract, take it to Vivian, have her sign it and bring it back to him, but instead, Syr
Mr. CEO We're Done! Go Home
Vivian’s POVI continued to ponder about where I had seen his face, because there was no doubt that I knew him. More so, I realized that he also knew me, because while he spoke before disappearing, he gave me a cold look. When he spoke, his eyes were on me, and there was a silent message I think he passed across, but I did not quite catch before he was gone. “Where do I know him from?” I pondered deep inside, knowing that I had seen his face, at least twice or three times before, but the memory was just a bit foggy.“Are you ready to go?” Manny’s voice cut through my reverie.I jumped a little and turned towards him. He had already put Ted in the front seat, and they were ready to leave. I didn’t even know that Manny and Ted had gotten into the car; after the man talked and left, I just got lost in thought.“Yes, yes, I am,” I said.Then I opened the back door and slipped into the car as Manny drove out of the premises. I expected that now that Ted was back and alive, the air would
Mr. CEO We're Done! Released
Vivian’s POVManny and I turned abruptly, scared and agitated. For a moment, I thought we were being ambushed, The rustling stopped, and everywhere was still and quiet again.“What the heck was that?” I asked Manny, panting rapidly as though I had run a marathon, and so was Manny.It dawned on me that Manny wasn’t as strong and brave as he had always shown himself to be, and it made me recall that just before we left the house, Manny had been insistent on me not coming. Well, he might not feel that way, but I am very grateful that I stubbornly came with him, because the fact that we were going through this together just made it a little less scarier, otherwise, maybe I would have passed out or peed in my pants.“How would I know? Weren’t we both standing here?” Manny asked harshly.I understood that he was tense and agitated, so I decided to not let the tone of his voice get to me.Then we both fell into silence, our eyes darting about, and seeking, looking, searching. The clock was
Mr. CEO We're Done! Black Sheep
Vivian’s POV“I don’t think you should come along,” Manny told me as he got dressed to go to the location the man on the phone had texted to him.We had had to wait for about an hour or two to receive the text, and we were both scared to our bones. There were thoughts running through our minds that we couldn’t exactly voice out. They might have already killed Ted, because since they took Ted, Manny attested that they hadn’t been able to speak with him, and now, they were waiting blindly for a location. The thought that Ted might already be dead shook me to my very core, and just like Manny, I shivered visibly. There was no need for either of us to pretend about how we felt. Anyway, when the text finally came, Manny immediately took dad back to his bedroom and laid him to sleep, so that he would not have to worry about anything. Somehow, Manny and I had been able to keep details of what was going on away from dad, as we both stayed at the dining table the entire time while he rested i
Mr. CEO We're Done! Next Strike
Georgia’s POVGeorgia spent a couple of seconds trying to calm Bonnie down. As she held Bonnie together, she could feel the young girl literally shaking with fright. “Let me see what he has been sending to you,” Georgia said as she untangled herself from Bonnie.Georgia went through Bonnie’s phone and appeared shocked, as though she wasn’t the one who sent the pictures and threat messages attached with the pictures.“Oh my goodness! Bonnie, how on earth did he get your cell number?” Georgia asked, pretending to be utterly stunned.Bonnie sniffed, trying to comport herself. “He asked me for my contact…actually, I willingly gave him mine…I can’t exactly remember if he was him who asked first or if it was me who just gave me…everything about that moment is blurry to me right now,” Bonnie said hysterically.She was beginning to sound like someone who was having a mental breakdown, but whatever the case may be, it was certainly playing in Georgia’s favor. Not only had she been able to sto
Mr. CEO We're Done! Mastermind
Georgia’s POV“Take me to the most expensive hotels in the city,” Georgia instructed her driver when her plane landed at the airport. She had just touched down from her tours, and Georgia could hardly believe that anyone could have that much fun.“So this is what those big stars enjoy, and more?” Georgia thought to herself.Well, shame on her mother for ever thinking that she, Georgia, would be as poor and rickety, or as a failure as she was. Georgia could not wait to see her mother so that she could gloat to her face. This was just the beginning of her career, and she would get to the top.“And no one would ever be able to stop me,” Georgia vowed to herself.She would crush anyone that ever got into my way to getting what she wanted, regardless of who they were. One of the reasons Georgia had to even get back was to put Belinda in place. It was she who enlisted Brenda in the first place to try to sabotage her. “Anyway, by the time I am done with both of them, they would know never
