THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER SIXTY-TWO – PAYBACK
“Where is the general? And soldiers warriors? Where are they?” “They have been killed!”The ministers were in a great uproar, but the Empress Dowager, who was sitting on the throne, remained expressionless and calm.It was then the palace gate was opened.Soldiers in black armour rushed in.“Kill them all, except those who surrender!”The stage echoed with the sounds of cries and weapons clashing.Staring at the figure walking through the palace gate, Sofia’s unperturbed face finally wavered.Stefanie was of such mighty presence, cladded in black armor and equipped with a spear. Her furrowed brow addressed a chilling bearing that could only be if Hades from Hell, casting the arrogance and imperiousness of worldly disdain!Back in the auditorium, Paul was looking at Priscilla as Stefanie was coming, and his pupils shrank.That was… The picture in his head overlapping with his stirred quiet and emotion in him.This was Stefanie Marion in the flesh.The woman whose homeland and family

“Do you know how hard it was for me to become the Empress? How much I had to endure to become an empress dowager? Finally, I sat high above the masses, without being held in contempt. Why wouldn’t you allow me to indulge a little longer?”Crying, and shouting, Sofia’s tears finally let out.Stefanie didn’t say anything. Gazing at her once beloved sister for a moment, she cracked into a smile. “You said nobody loves you? When you were a child, you stole your father’s jade fan. Who was the one beaten for you? When you were ten years old, you fell into a pond and nearly drowned. Who risked their life to save you? When you were fifteen years old, we were escorted to the Empire…”There was a sudden break in Stefanie's voice as if she had been reminded of some terrible memory.Those clear and cool eyes caught a scarlet, with deep disappointment and hatred.“Who was the one who came in the way when countless people tried to defile your innocence during the journey of a thousand five hundred

“Sister, I was wrong! Please forgive me! I’m begging you!”Sofia fell on her face and crawled all the way, with tears and snot mixing. She no longer looked like an Empress Dowager of the Empire.The woman in the combat wear still did not look back, but her eyes, which were covered in the sunset glow, were stained with twinkles of red.Her face tightened, and the hand holding the seal trembled slightly.Scenes of their younger days-taking her sister to climb over walls, on trees, and play with mud but being met with her sister's dislike, flashed through her mind.Nevertheless, these scenes were soon replaced by images of innocent people dying in her hands.She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.After a long time, Stefanie said in a cold voice, “The empress dowager of this empire is found guilty beyond forgiveness for the absence of virtue, going rampant and oppressing the people! She is hereby sentenced to death! The sky thundered and a thunderstorm began to sound.Sofia stood st

Was it for real?It was a production that cost four hundred million dollars, and he wanted a newbie with no experience to act in it.Director Romans must be out of his mind.Regina believed this was impossible. Priscilla was indeed great with her performance, but the way she saw it, it was because she guided her into the role. So, she didn’t give it a second thought, she said to Paul in a sweet tone, “Director Romans, you only praised my sister and forgot me.”Paul noticed her now and said with a smile. “Regina of course you are great too. Wait, what happened to your face?”Seeing he finally noticed her, Regina forced a smile and said, “It’s nothing. My sister just slapped me, it is okay, and I’m fine now!”Priscilla looked at her and smiled, “Oh, I’m sorry. I was too occupied in my role to hold back. You can’t deny that I managed to invoke stronger emotions in you. Don’t you agree sister?”She returned the same words Regina told Gwyneth.Regina's face stiffened.At this point, Paul

But Frederick sure took things seriously.Paul wept without tears.A minute later, he suddenly understood when David came in with a brand new set of cutleries. He turned to look at Fredrick and was greeted by a teasing smirk reflected in the latter’s eyes.Paul took over the tableware and said, “Thank you, cousin.”Paul was a distant cousin of Fredrick. Although he was older than Fredrick almost twenty years. Fredrick could not let him wait with an empty stomach.Putting down the bowl and utensils, he took a napkin to wipe his mouth and said, “Clean up when you finish, I got to take a break.”With that, he was about to go inside the lounge.Seeing this, Paul quickly got up, “Wait a minute!”Fredrick turned his head.Paul swallowed the food in his mouth in a rush. Without a care for his meal, he grabbed his laptop and trod over. “Cousin, I’m here for business.”Fredrick frowned, “What’s wrong?”“I want to change the actress,” Paul said seriously.Next Paul placed the computer on the

He already had a plan in his mind about how to persuade Priscilla to join the cast.From today’s performance, he was sure that she was absolutely the best.There were two kinds of actors, those born with innate skills and those nurtured.The latter acquired and honed their acting skills through practicing and hard work, but the former were born to be on the screen and in the spotlight.He had been doing this for decades and could not be mistaken. Priscilla was gifted in performing arts! With his polishing, the film would be a huge hit.He couldn’t figure out why Fredrick refused him.Fredrick sat there, looking at him and sneering. “For the actress in the leading role, you can choose anyone but her! I don’t need to explain myself to you. You can leave now!”Paul’s face was constantly changing.He had the urge to throw a tantrum but he did not have the guts. Paul wanted to reason, but Frederick had made it clear that was it.Finally, he got up and walked out in anger.Paul was halfway

When she dug deeper, she found that she had already found a new boyfriend. At that time, she probably thought she would break up with John anyway, and it would be good to make some money, so she agreed to his mother’s request.Priscilla soon got in touch with the girl.Playing her cards well, Priscilla obtained the edited audio and video clips before her forcing her to confess publicly on Weibo that she had lied. She gave her some leeway.She did not say she accepted money for framing but made up lies since she was not willing to break up.After all, a girl who was not willing to give up on her boyfriend was much easier to forgive than one who framed her ex-boyfriend for money.Of course, there were still some loose ends to pull.Although the apology video was posted online and made public, John’s image had been damaged to some extent.Nevertheless, John had a major production to be released. Priscilla had heard positive feedback about this drama. His praise-worthy performance should

She greeted him with a smile. “You are back! Sir down and eat!”Fredrick nodded, took a hot towel from the servant, and wiped his hands before sitting down.The first dish was the mushroom braised bamboo shoots made by Priscilla.These years Priscilla had been taking care of herself, so she was good at cooking, but Frederick was picky, she was not confident to make him satisfied.Years of taking care of herself had increased Priscilla’s cooking skills, yet she was not sure whether she could please a picky eater like Mr. Lincoln.The upcoming negotiation would be more hopeless if she failed to woo him with her cooking.Fredrick took a piece of bamboo shoots and put it in his mouth.Priscilla looked at him and became nervous when she found him frowning.“How is it? Is the taste... okay?” Priscila asked him.He looked at her, “You made it?”She did not know whether she should admit it. What if he did not like it?As she wanted to deny it, Wilma said with a smile, “Sir, Madam made two dis

Fredrick finally could not hold back his laughter when he heard her innocent words. He said blandly, “Could you possibly carry me?”“Of course. I might look tiny, my strength is huge.”“Alright, I’ll let you carry me in the future.”“Deal.”Priscilla was brimming with happiness and she felt that it was the happiest thing in the world.To continue walking with her loved one until they grew old, even without extreme excitements and luxuries, as long as they were both healthy and could stay with each other for the rest of their life, it would be enough.They only reached the foot of the hill when it was noon. They were both starving and thirsty.There were several local-looking restaurants at the foot of the hill, they randomly picked one and entered.After having lunch, they took a taxi on their way back. Proscilla did not sleep well last night. She felt exhausted and sleepy the moment she got into the car, and she fell deeply asleep shortly.It was already evening when she woke up.She

Priscilla glanced at the padlock and seeing his serious and neat writing, her eyelashes trembled a little.Fredrick noticed some romantic words were written on other padlocks after he finished writing the names. He then asked Priscilla for her opinion, “Shall we write something on it?”She asked him in return, “What do you think we should write?”Fredrick felt troubled. He was not the mushy type and he would only say something heart-warming and sappy when he faced her and was brimming with emotions.Yet he truly could not think of any romantic words when they were in the middle of nowhere.Since he had said that, he did not want to give up. After pondering for a while, he took the pen and wrote swiftly on the padlock.Priscilla approached him to take a look, and the words written on top were – “I want to sleep with her forever!”She was speechless.‘Are you kidding me, Mister Lincoln?’Fredrick hung the padlock on the bridge with great satisfaction.Priscilla still had a descendant’s

“Oh, everything is sold out. We’ll have to get some fresh ingredients tomorrow morning. But I got some bread and yogurt this afternoon. You can have them if you want!”Hannah went to the refrigerator, pulled out the bread and yogurt, and presented it to them.Priscilla immediately waved her hand. “It’s okay, you’re running a business here. How could we take it for free?”Fredrick quickly pulled three notes from his wallet and handed them to her.“What are you doing? These are just bread and yogurt. We are all from the same country before, and we are now in a foreign land. I can certainly afford to treat you this.” Hannah said.Priscilla blushed and felt embarrassed.“No, we didn’t mean it that way.”“In any case, take this! There are no stores or restaurants along the way you’re taking, so this will be your final chance to get food.”“Oh, I see,” Priscilla murmured.“Yes, and don’t stay out too late at night since the tourist attractions are packed with all sorts of people. The weathe

“There are so many lovely places! If you go east from here, you will see the Smoking Sea. It is close and offers the finest view. The sea is misty, giving it the appearance of a paradise. If you walk north, you’ll notice a mysterious temple on top of Mount Praia. Make a wish, and it will be granted. Nine out of ten visitors will visit the temple, and many couples like going on dates there as well. If you’re interested, you could go tomorrow because it’s a little late today. Climbing to the peak takes at least half a day.” Hannah explain.“Oh, I heard there’ll be a meteor shower here tomorrow, right?” Priscilla inquired, her eyes wide with curiosity. She looked up tourist attractions and weather forecasts before coming, and it’s been predicted that there would be a meteor shower tomorrow.“Meteor shower?” Hannah shook her head and frowned, “I’ve never heard of that, but you may have a look. Even without the meteor shower, there are plenty of places to visit around the mountain.”Prisc
THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED & FIFTY-SIX – VACATION
“I’m not always free, and don’t you want to go on vacation?” Fredrick said sternly.Priscilla’s eyes twinkled, “Of course I do.”She quickly started going over the material and deciding where she wanted to go.As she looked over the documents, she asked if there was any place he wanted to go to. Fredrick was fine with everything because he knew she would start shooting soon and he wouldn’t be able to visit her every day as he was busy, so they would be apart for a short time.So he wanted to spend as much time as he could with her now that he was free.Priscilla was fast to choose a location. After all, she had travelled to numerous locations in the last several years.She chose a few less popular spots and showed him her choice.“These are the locations I had wanted to go when I was alone. They are perfect for this season.Priscilla swiped on the tablet. These were all spots with gorgeous landscapes, ideal for a couple on vacation. He felt satisfied and chose a spot after thinking fo
THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED & FIFTY-FIVE – SUSPENDED
Her fans did not know what was going on, but they’ve noticed that her Twitter account had not been updated much lately.It also seemed that she had not appeared in many activities recently, let alone dramas.The president of Mika’s fans club had access to her schedule, but at this time, when she went to ask for it, the answer she got was that she had no schedule lately.Everyone was confused.Immediately afterwards, the official account of Anderson International released a statement. The gist of the statement was that Mika’s activities had been suspended for an indefinite period as she had broken her contract.As soon as this statement was posted, there was an uproar on the internet.Anderson International did not give much detail as to what she did. Some media had tried to poke around, but they could not find anything.As a result, speculation grew.As soon as the speculation started, some people got her into more trouble.As a result, all the shameful things that Mika had done in t

“Enough!” Andrei spoke out to interrupt him. “I know that it’s not easy for you either. Things have already happened, and the damage caused cannot be undone, I don’t blame you for that, but...” He paused for a while and looked at him with a stern gaze, “You should be able to investigate something like reporting a false crime thoroughly, right!”The officer was shocked.Logically, it could not be considered as a false report as they indeed found the drugs at the scene. It was just that they still needed to find out the real owner of the drugs they had found. As he was thinking, Andrei’s voice came out again.“The drugs do not belong to Gwyneth, so they must belong to someone else. The drugs appear out of nowhere, so you must find out their source.”The officer hurriedly nodded, “Yes, please don’t worry about it, we will find out the truth.”Only then did Andrei nod in satisfaction, “So, can she go now?”“Of course. Mr. Nixon, this way.”Only then did Gwyneth leave with Andrei.As expec

“Yes! If you still don’t believe me, you can give me a urine test and check if I have a history of drug use. If I don’t have a history of drug use, why do I bring it here? I know how important this occasion is. Isn’t it that I’m asking for trouble bringing such things in? I don’t take drugs as well! It’s obvious that someone had framed me and wants to ruin my future.”The officer thought for a moment.Then, he lifted his eyes and looked at her.“So, who do you think would have framed you?”“Naturally, the one who had reported it should also be the one who had framed me!”The officer sneered. He suddenly slapped the table and said angrily, “Nonsense!”Another officer next to him also sneered, “The one who reported you was an ordinary waiter. Why did he frame you? If you want to clear yourself, you better find a better excuse first!”Gwyneth was stunned.Before she could do anything, she saw the officer waving his big hand.“Alright, don’t talk nonsense with her, bring the stuff and cuf

“That’s right, she dares to insult you so unruly and openly now. If she gets famous one day, won’t she bully you?”“Right, you are her senior by years. She is being disrespectful to you by behaving like this.”Mika looked over at them, “Do you guys mean that you want me to deal with her?”The crowd hurriedly nodded unanimously.She sneered suddenly, “You guys think that I’m stupid? She’s now under Mr. Nixon’s protection, but you guys want me to mess around with her? Do you guys want me to completely offend him, or do you want me to be forced out of the circle?”At the moment these words came out, the women’s faces instantly changed.“Mika, we didn’t mean that.”“You guys know exactly what you mean!” Mika sneered, “I’ve been in this circle longer than you, so don’t expect to tackle me using that kind of provocation. Trying to make me a gun? You’re still a bit too young!”After saying that, she gave a heavy cold snort and turned around to leave.Priscilla and Gwyneth were pulled by Andr
