The Aloof CEO – Her Regret for Chasing Me Out Chapter 17 What Else Can We Do?
Since Elijah had a bit to drink, Cindy insisted on taking over the scooter on their way back. This put Elijah in an awkward spot.He considered resting his hands on her waist several times but ultimately refrained, awkwardly bracing his hands on the rear of the seat instead. Even so, the scooter wobbled enough that occasional contact was inevitable.Elijah couldn't help but recite a calming mantra in his mind as he felt the smooth, warm sensation against his thigh and caught the fresh, sweet scent from Cindy."I noticed you didn't eat much earlier. Was it because you weren't hungry or just didn't like the food?" Elijah asked.Cindy's cheeks turned crimson as she answered truthfully, "The food was a bit bland. Honestly, it wasn't as tasty as flamin' hot Cheetos."Elijah fell silent, rendered speechless by Cindy's love for hot Cheetos."By the way, Elijah, isn't it a bit wasteful to use someone like Old Mr. Reinhart to help with my family's problems? Maybe we should—""Just keep y

"No, this is far from over! I refuse to believe the Summer family has truly dominated Riverbay! Tell Nigel to continue recruiting. I'll think of a plan in the meantime." Liam growled, trembling with rage as he scrolled through his phone contacts.He made calls one after another, but either his number had been blocked, or the call was declined after a single ring. Everyone seemed eager to avoid him now that he was in a crisis—no one wanted to pick up his calls."Those traitorous bastards!" Liam cursed, his eyes blazing with fury. "We never treated them unfairly back when things were good for us. And now? They're all kicking us while we're down; won't even answer my calls!"Just as he was about to hurl his phone against the wall, it buzzed with an incoming call."Mr. Truman, are you calling to mock me in my time of trouble?" Liam's tone was harsh, still seething with anger."You've got me all wrong, Mr. Hudson," Gavin Truman replied, his tone even and even amiable. "I heard about yo

"Trivecta Corp will certainly cooperate with your family on my recommendation," Henry said as he held Natalie's hand. "But if we do it that way, people might call you a 'nepo hire' and gossip behind your back. How could I let you endure such humiliation?"Luckily, my family is about to sign a lucrative contract with the military. You could invest five billion and join in. The project's short—just a month or two—and you'll double your profits. Plus, you'll gain connections with both the military and my family. "Who would dare look down on you after that?"Natalie's heart raced with excitement, but her expression remained hesitant. "Thank you for thinking this through for me, but five billion is no small amount. I'll need some time to consider it."Five billion would require draining Summer Holdings' liquid assets and selling off a portion of its properties. It wasn't a decision she could take lightly.Henry quirked a brow, feigning surprise. "Natalie, don't tell me your family can
The Aloof CEO – Her Regret for Chasing Me Out Chapter 20 Teach Him a Lesson
"I just got back a few days ago! Let me introduce you—this is my girl, Natalie Summer, and her sister, Alicia," Henry said casually, turning to introduce the Summer sisters."Pleasure to meet you, Natalie!" the young man greeted enthusiastically. "No wonder Henry never bat an eye even when so many prominent ladies in the capital chase after him. Turns out his heart was already taken! I'm Tobias Langston, delighted to meet you both!""Tobias Langston? The son of the provincial capital's Langston family?" Natalie's eyes widened slightly, her tone tinged with surprise.She had done extensive research into the business circles of the provincial capital in hopes of expanding Summer Holdings beyond Riverbay. Langston Group stood out alongside Smoothcorp among the top-tier conglomerates. Tobias' father, Boreas Langston, was a formidable figure, rivaling even Jefferson Norwood in influence.Tobias was his only son and heir.Natalie had previously visited Langston Group over ten times, b

Elijah and Cindy spent the entire afternoon at the amusement park.Initially, they had planned to catch a movie, but Cindy seemed more interested in food. Besides, there weren't any decent films showing lately.As Cindy gazed at a poster featuring a glamorous actress, her tone brimming with admiration, Elijah had a sudden thought. "You graduated from Riverbay Arts School, didn't you? Why didn't you pursue a career in acting?"Cindy sighed, her expression tinged with frustration. "My dad was okay with it at first. But he outright refused after what happened in the family. He said the entertainment industry was too cutthroat. I'd just end up struggling without any support from home.""I see," Elijah replied with a nod and a smile. "Do you still want to be a star?"If someone like Selene—a woman who couldn't carry a tune without heavy autotune and acted with nothing but exaggerated expressions—could become a top-tier celebrity, helping Cindy achieve her dream would be a breeze.And
The Aloof CEO – Her Regret for Chasing Me Out Chapter 22 Smoked Barbecue Truck
Dylan's food truck was small, offering simple dishes like pierogi, donut holes, and mac and cheese."You sit here for a bit. Tell Dylan what you want to eat—I'm going across the street to grab some smoked barbecue," Elijah said as he guided Cindy to a seat. After a quick word with Dylan, he headed toward a smoked barbecue truck on the opposite side of the street.The owner of the truck, a man with teeth stained yellow, jumped up from his recliner as soon as he saw Elijah. "Aries of the Eclipse Unit, at your service, Your Excellency!""Let's skip the formalities," Elijah said, waving his hand nonchalantly before lowering his voice. "What's the latest? Any updates?"Aries pretended to cut up a barbecue platter while speaking quickly, his tone serious. "We've set up surveillance everywhere Dylan might go, with our team monitoring him 24/7. His phone's been tapped this whole time. "But Adrian? It's like he's vanished. There's been no trace of him around Dylan at all."Your Excellenc

The preference for sons over daughters was deeply ingrained in Riverbay.When Morgan's three children all turned out to be daughters, most people assumed Benjamin would hand the family inheritance to Mark's family. After all, Mark had two sons, and his eldest, Victor Summer, was quite accomplished.A few years ago, Victor had even become the apprentice of the Doctor Supreme, earning the title of the youngest and most skilled miracle doctor in Riverbay.Alas, no one expected Benjamin to hand the Summer family business over to Natalie right after she graduated college. And when the old patriarch arranged for Natalie to marry Elijah, he fully retired, leaving Summer Holdings entirely in her hands.In Cameron's eyes, the only reason his family didn't inherit the family wealth was because of Elijah's interference. So, Cameron couldn't resist kicking him while he was down to vent his frustration now that Elijah was "down on his luck."When Cameron started hurling insults, one of his fri

Beer mixed with blood streamed down Cameron's face and soaked his clothes."Go to hell!" Cameron roared, throwing a punch at Elijah. Unfortunately for Cameron, Elijah caught his fist effortlessly, gripping it tightly.Cameron struggled with all his might, yet he couldn't break free. Fear gripped him as he wondered, "Wasn't this guy supposed to be a loser?""Let go of me!" Cameron shouted.Elijah's expression remained icy as he twisted Cameron's wrist."Ah!" Cameron let out a guttural scream. "Let go, or I'll kill you!"Elijah's eyes turned colder, his silence more menacing. Then, he twisted harder.Crack!Cameron's wrist snapped. He collapsed to the ground, his face pale, writhing in pain like a beaten dog. Never in his wildest dreams did he think the man his family had cast out could be this terrifying."You insulted my friend. Death may be off the table, but you won't escape unscathed," Elijah said icily, then jabbed several acupoints on Cameron's body."Ahhh!" Cameron let

They were reapers, merciless specters of death.The sheer malice they radiated chilled Wade to the bone, his body trembling as though he had plunged into an icy abyss.The gap between his Shiverclad Legion and those nine executioners was insurmountable. It was nothing short of a one-sided massacre.In the blink of an eye, the chaos subsided. Silence reclaimed the night.All forty members of the Shiverclad Legion lay lifeless on the ground. Not a single one had survived."Elijah… you… you all…" Wade stammered, his tongue tied in disbelief.Nine black-clad figures knelt before Elijah, their cold, emotionless voices laced with apprehension. "We exceeded by one second. Please punish us, Your Excellency.""Punish yourselves when we return," Elijah replied, his tone indifferent.Wade's face turned ashen at the exchange.Twenty-one seconds. They had slaughtered nearly forty Shiverclad Legion elites in twenty-one seconds, yet Elijah wasn't satisfied and expected punishment for the del
The Aloof CEO – Her Regret for Chasing Me Out Chapter 29 The Shiverclad Legion
The Shiverclad Legion of Team Luna was a force to be reckoned with, a unit trained to take on ten opponents each without breaking a sweat. The nearly forty men dispatched tonight could easily decimate an enemy force of four hundred and emerge victorious.Yet here Elijah was, claiming they would all fall that night. Was he delusional?To Wade, it was nothing but a joke. He scoffed, saying, "I heard you've learned a few petty tricks, but against the Shiverclad Legion, there's only one outcome for you: death."He raised his hand, signaling his men forward. The forty Shiverclad Legion members advanced with a unified ferocity as though ready to tear Elijah apart in an instant."If you get on your knees, beg me, and break your own limbs, I might just give you a quick death," Wade taunted, his expression filled with mocking amusement."You want my life?" Elijah quirked a brow, a cold smile playing on his lips. "With just you and your men? Not even close."Wade's expression darkened with

"I'll immediately mobilize the Shiverclad Legion to drag him over! Not only will he personally heal Cameron, but he'll also kneel and beg for forgiveness. After that, I'll break every bone in his body and make him suffer everything Cameron endured," Alicia declared, her voice icy and firm.Natalie frowned. "Didn't you say the Bloodstride Gang—"Alicia sneered. "They're just putting on a show, trying to scare me into thinking a fight with them would cost Team Luna dearly. But with my reputation in Riverbay, who would dare oppose me? Once I give the order, the Bloodstride Gang will be nothing but ashes in no time."Her expression turned ruthless, her confidence unshakable. "A group of clowns like them won't stop me from dealing with one insignificant loser."The sisters exchanged glances and quickly agreed.Anyone who had crossed Alicia before had eventually come crawling to apologize, and the Bloodstride Gang would be no exception. Moreover, the team she was dispatching was the Shi

"I didn't do anything! It was all still fine yesterday—Master even said he'd help me advance to the Professor level…" Victor muttered, utterly lost.Natalie urged him, "Stop overthinking! Ask your mentor what's going on and find a way to fix this!"The apprenticeship under the world's only Doctor Supreme wasn't just a matter of personal achievement for Victor—it was a monumental asset for the entire Summer family.Victor nodded hastily. 'Master, if I've done anything wrong, please tell me. I'll apologize and promise never to repeat it. Natalie's furious with me for upsetting you—she's been scolding me nonstop!'Victor once again tried to invoke Natalie's name, a tactic that had always worked in the past.'Tell her this: as of now, you've been expelled from my tutelage,' Elijah replied coldly. 'Her cousin is unworthy of being my disciple.'Victor's face turned ashen, his vision spinning. Did Elijah really mean it? Had he truly been expelled? It seemed like Elijah wasn't joking,
The Aloof CEO – Her Regret for Chasing Me Out Chapter 26 Expelled From Apprenticeship
In Riverbay, where the preference for sons over daughters ran deep, no prominent family would ever hand over its legacy to a woman.Natalie had long felt guilt toward her uncle, Mark, and her cousin, Victor. She often thought of herself as a thief, stealing what should have been theirs. She had even cried about it in secret several times.If it hadn't been for Elijah's subtle nudges and his staged acts as the Doctor Supreme, alongside training Victor through online mentorship and helping him achieve fame, Natalie might never have overcome her guilt.'Master, are you there? Sorry to bother you so late!' Victor messaged respectfully.In the past, Elijah had tolerated Victor for Natalie's sake. Even though he wasn't particularly fond of him, he would patiently solve Victor's problems. But this time, his reply was curt. 'What is it?'Victor was taken aback. His usually kind and approachable mentor sounded unusually cold.'Master, my younger brother was injured by a scoundrel. That ma

"Victor, you're the youngest miracle doctor in Riverbay! How can someone of your caliber fail to treat Cameron?" The Summer family all turned to Victor, their faces filled with disbelief, making the young doctor's face burn with embarrassment and anxiety."What about your mentor, Victor? Since you've hit a roadblock, why not reach out to him?" Morgan frowned, his tone sharp.Victor's eyes lit up. "You're right—my mentor can definitely help!"Victor's accomplishments in medicine were all thanks to his apprenticeship under the legendary Doctor Supreme, a mysterious figure known for solving even the most impossible medical challenges. His mentor could always find a solution no matter the issue.Reinvigorated, Victor quickly pulled out his phone and opened a specialized medical app."This is the GMA Medical Ranking and Consultation app, developed by the World Medical Association," Victor explained. "It categorizes medical professionals worldwide by their skills and achievements, with
