Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 25: Gil's arrogance
Raine's POVIt's already lunchtime and I'm grateful that Kai allowed me to eat outside. I came up with a silly excuse to justify it. A man who phoned me earlier wanted to meet for lunch, and I agreed because I wanted to talk to him.When I reached the road in front of my company, I hailed a cab and instructed the driver to take me to the Chinese restaurant. Within ten minutes, we arrived at the restaurant. "This way, ma'am," a woman says.A woman directed me to a private room, indicating that the man wanted a private conversation. I hoped he wouldn't betray me, as I was prepared to confront him if he made a mistake.When the door opened, he greeted me with a smile. "There you are, Mrs. Montefalcon," he greets me with a smile.I forced a smile in return as the waiter closed the door behind us. Despite the food on the table, I doubted whether I should eat or drink anything he ordered. I took my seat and asked, "So, what's this all about, Mr. Gil Harper?" He chuckled."Please, just call
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 26: EGBC's issue
Kai's POV I made the decision to review the documents related to EGBC because I wanted to understand more about the company's background and operations. If Raine is telling the truth about appointing me as the president, I want to be well-prepared. As I was reading, she stood beside me and observed the document. "I've noticed a problem. I believe there's a toxic atmosphere in this department. Also, I checked your emails and found some in the spam folder. Take a look at this," I whispered. She glanced at the monitor and I could see Raine's expression souring. She rubbed her forehead, clearly upset. My wife had no patience for unpleasant people, which is why she was known as a tough boss. Raine always looked out for her innocent employees. "Thank you. I suppose I'll have to investigate this myself. I can't believe those individuals didn't heed my warning." My forehead creased. She had given them second chances? I hadn't expected that. I cleared my throat. "You give second chances?"
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 27: EGBC bosses
Raine's POVThe boss we need to investigate is the manager of the program department and one of the production head managers. They look at me and their reaction is priceless."Eh? I mean, yes, ma’am. Chairwoman Raine sent an email to the HR department. The manager called me as soon as possible and informed us about your arrival," Ellie says. I smiled and nodded."By the way, I'm Annie, his secretary," I stated."This is Director Aki of the headquarters of El Greco Empire."She looked at him, and I knew no one would realize who we were. We had become familiar to the public after announcing that we were a married couple. I knew that EGE's employees were familiar with our faces."I'm Ellie, the manager of the HR department. The HR department wants to talk to both of you before someone sends you to your temporary office here on the 11th floor, ma'am. They will tell you where his office is," Ellie explained.I smiled and held her hand. I never expected these awful people to openly harass f
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 28: Who send that email?
Kai's POVI lean my elbow on the table and glance at my wife's expression. "That's what I have in mind as well. In order to uncover the truth, we need their assistance to address the issue effectively," I comment. She closes her eyes and sighs."Sexual and work abuse are two distinct issues, but I will not tolerate either in any of my businesses. We must gather all possible evidence and ensure that the perpetrators are swiftly brought to justice," Raine remarks. I smirk and playfully pinch her skin."Ouch. What was that for?" she asked.I simply shrugged my shoulders and smiled. I pulled her into my lap and wrapped my hands around her. My wife blushed right away. I enjoy teasing her. She showed me the expressions I wanted to see."Relax. We have time for that. There's no need to rush things, or else our cover will be blown. You'll only be helping them hide the evidence we're looking for," I remarked.She expresses her concern about the well-being of her employees and wants to ensure t
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 29: Two sides of the coins
Raine's POV Upon arriving home, I informed my husband that I would be working in my office and suggested he go to bed without me. I then put on my glasses and began tracing the IP address to identify the sender. My mansion's office computer had the necessary files for the task—yes, I am also a hacker. However, I only use these skills in specific situations and not for unlawful purposes in my business dealings. "I was right. That woman is the one who sent that anonymous email," I muttered. The email was sent from a desktop at EGBC, but what puzzles me is the timing—it was sent at eleven at night. I need to speak with her and hope that those three won't interfere or cause harm. "Oh boy!" I exclaimed. I urgently called someone to ensure the safety of an employee at her home. Shit! I can't believe I didn't think of that earlier! He picked up the call. "Hello, ma’am Raine? How can I assist you?" he inquired. After briefing him on the situation, I made sure he understood everything.
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 30: Who is the boss?
Kai's POVI turn around and notice that Raine is not with us. Romano looks at me and also realizes her absence. "Where did Secretary Annie go?" he asks.I just smile and reassure him, "Don't worry about her. She's always diligent at work. She probably went to the washroom for a moment," I replied.He opens the door for me and we enter. As he chats away, I pretend to listen, but it's been thirty minutes, and my wife still hasn't arrived.Romano stands up after checking the time and apologizes, "I'm sorry, Sir Aki. I'll go ahead. I have things to do and I'm sorry for bothering you too much."I force a smile and reply, "Don't worry about it. Keep working hard."He smiles and leaves my office. I immediately grab my phone and dial Raine's number. Why isn't she answering me? It's not even ringing!Then it hits me to search every corner of the office for wiretaps or hidden cameras. I recalled the message Walter sent me this morning, advising me on how to check for potential spies.After wait
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 31: The clue
Raine's POVI have some information about the person that the woman was discussing. I quickly grab my phone and show her the email. Glancing at her ID, I realize that she’s one of the interns named Alyssa Cruz."Please! I was the one who sent that email because I want to protect my sister from those…" she paused, tears welling up in her eyes.I search for a handkerchief, but I don’t have one. My husband opens the glove box and hands me a tissue. I pass it to her and she continues crying uncontrollably.It seems like she knows about the difficulties her sister faced while working here. "Share the details when you feel ready to talk," I say.Secretly, I turn on the camera on my phone. The necklace I was wearing had a nanocamera. I asked Macey to get one of these from El Greco Tech Enterprise. This will record our conversation.After a few minutes, she started to calm down. “What happened, Alyssa?” I inquire. She nervously fidgets with her fingers, showing her reluctance to answer my que
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 32: Sneaking is sweet
Kai's POVMy heart is racing and my body feels warm. I'm becoming more sensitive to everything, especially Raine's warmth, scent, and touch, which arouse me.Damn that air purifier! She looks incredibly sexy when she makes that 'shh' gesture. Pushing me against the counter, she stands in front of me and sighs."This will be quick," she whispers. I close my eyes as she puts up her hair. I know what she's about to do. My wife unbuckles my belt and unzips my pants. She realizes how stiff I am."You don't have to do this if you're uncomfortable and—ahh!" I moan, covering my lips to control the sound.This familiar warmth and touch, she's the best at giving me head. I look at her as she licks my cock down to my balls. Her fingertips caress the dimple of my penis. Her expression is so sexy that I can't take my eyes off her. I grab her head and meet her eyes."I'm sorry, Raine. I want more," I said, as I pushed into her mouth.I could feel myself reaching the back of her throat, and it felt

Raine's POVI think Demi sent someone to watch our backs. If she thinks that I’m stupid, I won’t suspect her. She’s wrong. There’s no way that I’ll let her do as she wishes.I’ll show her who I am as well. "It means that she’s aware that Emma was your stalker," I replied.I might be checking my emails, but part of my eye was staring at this woman. Demi laugh. "Your keen senses will only bring you trouble, Missy," she says.I gave my phone to my husband. I didn’t lock it yet. "Here," I stated."Can I check it out?" he asks. I nodded."No problem. You’ll only see your nude pictures there," I tease.His cheeks turn red. He really checks my gallery. I laugh. "Honey, those are for my eyes only. There’s no way I’ll take one. Na-ah," I said, moving my index finger from left to right."Ahem!" Demi coughs.I look at her and smirk. "Oh, you’re
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 56: They all meet again
Kai's POVI just took a four-hour nap and asked George to drive us home at exactly four in the morning. I just arrived, and I can’t help but watch my wife as she sleeps cutely."I got in here ten minutes ago. I really want to see you, so... here I am," I replied. She rolled her eyes and pinched my cheeks."Welcome home, Kai…" she says, smiling widely."I’m home, honey," I replied.She grabbed my wrist and pulled me up. I lost my balance and landed on her. I was about to roll over when she wraps her hands and legs around me."You are better than a bolster or a pillow," she says. She even sniffs me like a puppy.I rolled over and am now on top. I pat her butte and unwrap her legs and arms around me. "Go to sleep. I’ll make us something for breakfast. I’ll wake you up later," she says. I shake my head and wrap my hands around her."Stay here with me. Let’s grab some brunch outs
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 55: He's the nurse (part 2)
Raine's POVI know where he's coming from. We both remember my health history, and he’s afraid that I'll have the same illness here.I do feel the same way, and that’s the reason why I’ll be using Raine's money to make sure I'll have a longer life and be with Kai until my hair turns gray.I stand up and notice that I don’t have any IVs on me. I guess the nurses notice it and take it off themselves. I went to him and sat beside him. I wrap my quilt around him. I look at his laptop."Look who is overexerting himself."I closed his laptop and put it back in his bag. I look at my husband’s sleeping face. I chuckled. "You are indeed a celebrity, my love. You're too beautiful for me," I murmur.I raise my hand and touch his hair. He's pouting a little when he is sleeping soundly. I guess he stayed too late last night, and he just got his proper sleep.I better speak with the nurses. I was about
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 54: He's the nurse (part 1)
Kai's POVI was running down the hallway after the nurse told me which room it was. Macey told me that Raine was admitted to the hospital, and it horrified me.I opened the door and looked at the bed. "Raine! Are you okay?!" I ask. I held her hand and noticed how pale she was. She smiled."Don't worry. I'm fine. They said it’s just stress and fatigue. I'm also having a hard time with my sleeping habits," she reported.I look at Macey. She nods and seems to agree with what her boss says. I hope that they’re not lying to me."You need to take a breath. I will take care of the things you need to know for next week. I have no appointments or photoshoots for that week. You must rest properly, understand?" I remarked. She laughed but nodded. I’m glad she didn’t argue with my suggestion.A nurse came in and checked her vital signs. "Nurse, I want to suggest an overall check-up for my wife. I have to make sure that she’s not ill or whatever it is," I said.She nods and looks away. I know she
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 53: How to deal with menaces
Raine's POVI gasped and got up in bed. I groan when everything turns black. This is a consequence of waking up in the middle of the night. I look at the man beside me."Ugh. What the heck? I dozed off completely!" I whimper. I heard my husband moan.He opens his eyes and looks at me with such sexy glances. "I apologize if I ended up sleeping last night. I was just tired and stressed from all the reports that I received from the technical team," I explained.Kai raised his hand and caressed my cheek. "It's okay, love. We still have so many nights and days to make love with one another," he says. That made me blush.How inconsiderate I was! "I will make it up for you tonight, I promise, my love," I whispered. He shook his head and smiled."Just take the rest that you deserve. You are my partner, not my sexual pet. Hugging and kissing you will be enough for me, Raine," he whispered. That melts my heart.I knew from the very start that my husband was considerate and loving. "Let's have a
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 52: His story about his evil stepmother
Kai's POVI guess she is indeed planning to cause a stir in our lives. I’m sure my evil stepmother was aware that the child of the couple she killed was my wife, her stepson.I look at Raine. "Answer her. Don’t worry about me. Put it in the speakerphone. I want to hear her voice," Raine says. I nodded and followed her instructions. I swipe the answer button and wait for 3 seconds."Hello? I thought you had died already," I stated.All we heard was her wicked laughter. I showed this woman what kind of hatred my parallel self had for her. "Why? Do you really think I died with your dad? Oh, please," he stated. My jaw clenched.My dad and mother died together because they got back together after my dad divorced Demi, my evil stepmother.They only got married for three years, but those years were nothing but hell for me. I’m just glad that my cousin’s dad wakes my father from his stupid slumber. He finally saw Demi’s true colors."I wish you were. You deserve to die early, but I guess the
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 51: The stepmother
Raine's POVI saw how confused Kai was. I laugh. I just want to tease him but there’s another meaning for it."I love you so much that I can sacrifice any luck in my life in order to love you in every dimension," he replied.I was surprised by what he said. He said those words with a straightforward expression on his face.He cupped my face and lifted it up a little. He gives me a sweet kiss. "I will always find you, no matter where you are, Raine. No matter what surname you’ll be using, I promise you that," Kai added.My heart sank because of joy. I can’t believe he answered my question flawlessly. I smiled. I wrap my hands around his neck. I softly brush his nape, where the end of his hair lies.I kissed him several times until he claimed it was a torrid one. I moan and respond to his kiss wildly. I love him and that is an inevitable truth.No matter where we are, I’ll only love a single man. That’s Kai Montefalcon. We both laughed because of our cheesiness after that long kiss. We

Raine's POVI told Macey that I wanted to see my husband after she gave me a certain clue that I didn’t expect. Macey says that a woman is the one who sent his dad to kill my parents.She also gives me a clue. Her dad saw a tattoo on the woman’s right boob. He says that she’s wearing a bra that exposes her boobs and when she bends over while giving the payment to Macey’s dad, he sees a certain tattoo.I suddenly remember that Kai in our world had a stepmother who caused his downfall as well. "What kind of scary truth is that?" Kai says. I tap my right side, telling him to take a seat beside me. He was confused but followed my order."Remember your evil stepmother, Demi? She has a tattoo on her right boob, am I correct? What kind of tattoo is that again?"His face turned sour when he heard Demi’s name. His jaw clenched. My husband really hates her. "Why did you remember her? I was relieved she’s not around in this world."I sighed and decided to tell him what Macey told me. "She said t

It's already day 3 and as soon as my last show ends tomorrow, I'll run home."If you can only see your face, you’re fucking in love, dude. I never thought I'd see you as restless as this," George teases. I take off my coat and sigh."Four days was fucking long. How can she feel at ease while I’m missing her so much?" I commented. He burst into laughter.I glared at my cousin and he cleared his throat, stopping himself from laughing. Damn! "You're not in love yet and that’s the reason why you’re clueless about these feelings. I’ll laugh at you when you do. I’ll make sure of that," I remarked.His eyes dilated and he suddenly stood up from sitting on the couch. Wait a second! He is staring behind me. Don’t tell me Emma stalked me here?! That woman!A slender arm and a familiar scent register in my head. A soft kiss landed on my cheek. "I guess
