THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE Darkness
CHAPTER 87Alexander, how could this be. My Alexander was involved in this? How could I have fallen so madly in love with such a person. Alexander is most definitely not the man I thought i knew. The documents, with their bold, ominous headers, bore the unmistakable marks of corruption and illegal activities. My hands shook as I picked up a photograph of Alexander shaking hands with a man I recognized from the news - a notorious mob boss. The sight of it sent a chill down my spine."Alexander," I whispered to myself, my voice barely audible, I had no idea what to think or do, the silence in the room made the air suffocating and I began hyperventilating like one who suffers from claustrophobia. My mind felt like a whirlwind of thoughts, each more horrifying than the last.For a moment, I considered leaving everything exactly as it was and pretending I had never found the room. But the truth was a bitter pill that had to be swallowed. I needed answers,no
THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE Due Time
CHAPTER 88She held up her hand, cutting him off. "Olivia," she interjected, her voice clear and decisive, "I wish to speak to you privately before you head off to the company."Olivia, was taken aback by her request, she exchanged a quick, apprehensive glance with Alexander before responding, "Of course, Emma."We ate the rest of our breakfast in silence, everyone lost in their own thoughts. Alexander kept his gaze fixed on Emma the whole time as he felt apologetic. As we all finished our breakfast, Alexander rose from the table, his eyes filled with a strange mix of regret and longing. He leaned towards Emma, attempting to plant a farewell kiss on her cheek, a morning ritual they had started, he would kiss her forehead and her baby bump. But this time was different, she stiffened, pulling away before he could make contact. He watched her retreating figure, his heart aching at the coldness that had replaced the warmth she used to exude.He left the m

CHAPTER 89In the evening, we found ourselves in the living room, an awkward silence hanging between us that has become more familiar these past few days. Alexander was perched on the edge of the cushy armchair, his eyes fixed on the antique clock on the wall. I was sprawled on the couch, a book in my lap that I wasn't really reading."I didn't mean for things to get this complicated, Emma," Alexander finally broke the silence, his voice filled with regret. I glanced at him from the corner of my eye, my heart pounding in my chest. But I didn't respond, merely turning a page in the book."I... I just thought I was helping them," he continued, his gaze now fixed on me. "I thought I was giving them a platform, an opportunity to showcase their talent, it's complicated now but it will-."I scoffed, finally closing the book and turning to face him. "By exploiting them, Alex? By taking advantage of their dreams?"He flinched as if I had physically struck him. "I.
THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE I'll Find The Truth
CHAPTER 90The drive to the company was a blur, my mind still reeling from Emma's revelations. As Alexander's sister I have a certain level of responsibility. And right now, that responsibility was getting to the bottom of this mess.I finally got to the company and my colleagues greeted me formally, I had made sure no one in the company knows who I truly am and my connection to the CEO, Alexander. I didn't want them to treat me differently. I entered the elevator and then got to Alexander's floor. I walked out of the elevator and began walking to his office when someone stopped me."No, where do you think you are barging into like that Miss Olivia?" It was Alexander's arrogant assistant, Vivian."Get out of my way Vivian or I will get you fired." I said through grinded teeth. "And 2ho do you think you are to fire me? Have you lost it?""Olivia" Alexander called and I looked up to find Alexander standing there right outside his office. I gave Vivian on
THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE LANCE
CHAPTER 91I was right about entering the pub when I felt a hand stopping my advances. "Olivia?" A familiar voice called. I recognized that voice, it was most definitely owned by the devil that came into my life. What does he wants? Why is he here? How did he find me?With great trepidation, I turned and gazed into his monstrous eyes, his devilish smirk taunting me with it's mischief. I gazed at his hand that was tightly clasping mine. Those hands hit me so many times and gave me nightmares. I trailed my eyes back up to his face. His hair, those blonde strings I was forced to brush each morning and make look perfect. His forehead, those weapons used to strike mine whenever I made a mistake. His eyes, those blood thirsty orbs that enjoyed watching me suffer in pain as a sex slave for ages. His nose, that loved to sniff in the smell of my blood, as it painted the tiles which I had to clean up later. His lips, those lips that only knew how to speak malice a
THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE That look in his eyes
CHAPTER 92Olivia's povI gazed at Lance's retreating figure as he was scared for his life. " Olivia..." I heard James turn and shifted my attention to him. His gaze bored into mine, filled with worry and concern and for the first time ever; I realized just how beautiful his baby blue eyes were."Olivia..." he called again shaking me slightly as though to make me snap out of my reverie. "Ah.... Yes... wh-". "Are you okay?" He was quick to cut me off and ask, he looked so worried and I found his expression quite cute. The lines formed in his head were a bit too much but I needed to bore this look of his into my memory. "Y- yes I'm... I'm okay." Just then, Lance finally got out of his state of shock and gazed at James with a killing intent. That look in his eyes, that look. I remembered it, it was the exact same look he had in his eyes three years ago. When he pulled out his gun from the drawer in the room while I kneald begging and screaming in hopes of
THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE Who is he?
CHAPTER 93Olivia's POVBlood, that was all I could see, James looked at me with shock in his eyes as he fell down slowly. I looked at his bleeding arm and rushed to hold him.I knew lance was out of control but I didn't expect him to go as far as shooting James out here in the public, is he crazy?. I tried talking to james when Alexander suddenly came out of the pub, he looked shocked to find James on the ground with a bleeding arm. I was just about to explain to him who Lance was so he wouldn't go acting like a hero and get shot when I heard him say his next lines that shocked me to my foundation "Lance, you need to go". He said so casually, he was sending lance away from the scene so he doesn't get into trouble with the authorities. Why? Why was he trying to help lance when he has no idea what type of a monster he is."Control your sister" lance said as he turned and left in a flurry. I looked at Alexander with questions in my head, how'd they get to
THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE Missing
CHAPTER 94Olivia's POV"Alright then" he said as he took my hand and kissed the back of my palms. He's such a gentleman."Mr. James will need to rest now miss". A nurse said. I wondered how long she had been standing there and if she saw us kiss. "No problem, I'll go have my bathe, change and get you some food" I said to James.I gave him a peck on his lips before bolting out of the door. I could feel his smirk after I left. I saw a doctor outside the corridor so I decided to ask him about James."Hey doctor, I'm the one who brought in the gun shot man, how long does he have to stay here before he gets discharged?" I asked the doctor as he fiddled with a notebook."And who are you to the young man?" He asked. "Well... I'm his... girlfriend. So when will he be discharged?" I asked. "Not long miss, at most just tonight and he'll be free tomorrow morning". He said as he adjusted his glasses. I sighed in relief as I heard him say that. " But um... ma'a

CHAPTER 130Emma's POV Just like the wind, the days cane and flew by. Before I knew it, it was Asher's birthday. I've been trying my best to convince Alexander and Olivia to at least reach out to their mother but neither of them were willing to give me a listening ear. Turned out fyn Mrs Collins was actually so wrong about both of them. At first Olivia would walk away from me at the mention of her mother but then after I had told her the story Mrs Collins had told me, I noticed that she had warmed up a bit.I could easily tell that for Olivia, all it took was a face to face apology from her mother and all will be okay. She is most definitely going to forgive. But Alexander.....He was a case study, I once had to bind him for him to be able to hear me out. I spoke about all the things Mrs Collins had told me and even explained just how much I feel for her as a mother that I am too. But Alexander always had a reply that undermines mine.There was no

CHAPTER 129Emma's POV " Olivia was already in a coma. For three long years, she lay there, and I couldn't bring myself to come home. I felt so ashamed and guilty. I thought I had ruined my daughter's life. I did get the alimony and thought to redeem myself in both their eyes by the fact that Olivia at least got something off from the marriage."Tears welled up in my eyes as I listened to Mrs Collins' heartbreaking confession. The weight of her guilt was palpable. She had made grave mistakes, but deep down, I could sense her love for Olivia.Mrs Collins looked at me, her eyes filled with regret. "Emma, during those years, I couldn't face Olivia, but I couldn't bear being away from both my children any longer. That's why I returned for Alexander. I wanted him to get married to a girl of my choice, someone I had thoroughly investigated and thought would be good for him. I knew it would be hard convincing him after all that happened with Olivia but I had

CHAPTER 128Emma's POV Mrs Collins nodded, her gaze filled with gratitude. "Thank you, Emma. Your words give me hope. I've made many mistakes, in my life but the greatest of all was neglecting them. Making them live their lives like my little puppets. I want them to know how much I love them."She sat back on the bench and let out a huge depressed sigh. I wondered how many mistakes she had made to make Alexander and Olivia be so mad at her.As we sat quietly on the bench Mrs Collins and I, a question burned within me. I mustered up the courage to ask, "Mrs Collins, may I ask why you were this way with your children. I do not want to seem intrusive but, we're your parents the same way with you?"Mrs Collins sighed, a mix of sorrow and regret on her face. She turned to me and said, "Emma, I wish to tell you a story. Do you wanna hear it?" She asked and I nodded gently." We weren't always so wealthy, you see, my parents weren't that poor, we were comfortab

On this particular day, Maria, Olivia, and I found ourselves engaged in a playful chase, trying to catch Asher and get him to put on his clothes. But he giggled and ran about, refusing to cooperate."Come on, Asher! It's time to get dressed," I called out, feeling a mix of exhaustion and amusement.But Asher just giggled even louder, darting away from us with his tiny legs carrying him swiftly. I could feel my energy draining, and I was close to giving up when I noticed him heading straight for the entrance of the mansion. Panic surged through me, and I hurried to catch up to him, not wanting him to hurt himself on the stairs of the pavement.Just as I reached the entrance, my heart skipped a beat as I came face to face with a pair of feet in ruby shiny slippers. I followed the gaze up, and shock washed over me like a ti

CHAPTER 126Emma's POV "This is for you, Emma. We thought it would be perfect for those late-night feedings and soothing moments."I sat down in the rocking chair, feeling its smooth wood against my back. "Thank you, Alexander. It's just what I need to cuddle and bond with Asher."He smiled warmly. "And see that shelf over there? It's filled with all the books Olivia and I loved reading when we were kids. We want Asher to grow up surrounded by stories and imagination. Who knows, he could be an artist like the both of us or be a writer like Olivia had always dreamed of being."I walked over to the shelf, tracing my fingers along the spines of the books. "Oh, I can't wait to read to him every night."The room was complete with a changing table, adorned with soft, fluffy towels and neatly organized diapers and baby products. There was also a small dresser for Asher's tiny clothes, each item carefully folded and arranged."Everything is ready for our little p

CHAPTER 1253rd person POV Dr. Johnson offered a faint smile, touched by his devotion. "That's the spirit. Remember, miracles do happen, and we're going to fight with everything we have to give Olivia the best chance at recovery."As the doctor turned to leave, he paused and looked back at Alexander and James. "Take care of yourselves too. It's important to stay strong for her. I'll be back to update you as soon as there are any changes."With that, Dr. Johnson disappeared down the corridor, leaving Alexander and James alone with their thoughts and worries. "She'll be fine, am sure of it," Alexander whispered, his voice filled with determination. "She has to be. She's not leaving me this way."James squeezed his hand, his voice filled with hope. "She won't. This is the most cowardly way to die giving Olivia's personality."And so, with heavy hearts and unwavering love, Alexander and James prepared themselves for the long and uncertain hours ahead. Wit

He had never looked or felt so vulnerable in his entire life.Meanwhile Lance was raging in anger as the policies had caught up to him and Alexander followed. He glared at Alexander like he wanted to chop him into pieces at that exact moment."Alexander! You fool! What do you think will happen to your company? Your fucking life work? Do you think just because you turned yourself in means you won't get punished? I will reveal it all! I will!." She yelled non stop but Alexander had his cool emotionless face on the whole time. Slowly he leaned into Lance."Do you really think I had no idea about these consequences? And don't forget, I also know the most darkest of your secrets. Do you remember that Andrew?" He said and pulled away.There was a

Chapter 123Olivia's POV Just as I was lost in my thoughts, the door suddenly swung open, and Alexander walked in, cradling a precious bundle in his arms. It was Asher, Emma and Alexander's baby. I watched as surprise flashed across his face when he noticed me sitting there. He looked overwhelmed, but there was something else in his eyes, something I couldn't quite place."Olivia?" Alexander's voice quivered with astonishment. " You're finally awake? Since when? What are you doing here?""Alexander" I called, standing up and taking a few steps toward him. "I... I wanted to see Emma. I've missed her so much."His gaze shifted from me to Emma, and that's when he saw the tear stains on her face. His eyes widened, and he hurriedly made his way to her side, gently passing Asher into my waiting arms."Emma, my love," Alexander whispered, his voice filled with longing and concern.

We'll keep you for a little longer for observation, but if all goes well, you should be able to go home soon."I frleanedt so relieved to hear that. Home sounded like the best place to be right now, I didn't like the hospital smell or the food here.As the doctor left the room, I turned to James, gratitude shining in my eyes.
