The CEO's Contract Lover No record
“You can inform Nina that you won’t be returning tonight.”A frown appeared on Isaac's face when he heard Emilia’s words.Ever since Emilia and Jayden broke up, the latter had never visited their manor. Later, the Moores also went overseas, gradually losing touch with each other.Isaac was a man of principles.Though one of his biggest regrets in life would be not having Jayden as his son-in-law, since they’ve already moved on, there was no need to rekindle old feelings.“Thanks, but I gotta go home,” Jayden declined.He appreciated their help, but he couldn’t hang around any longer. After all, it was his wife, Nina’s birthday, and she was waiting for him at home.Isaac breathed a sigh of relief on the inside, but Emilia didn’t seem thrilled with Jayden’s response.“Don’t be so stubborn, Jayden,” Emilia argued. “You’ve lost a lot of blood, and you can’t even stand straight. Can you bear to let Nina see you in this condition?”Her words made Jayden pause and reconsider his decision.Th
The CEO's Contract Lover Goodbye, love
“I’m just a woman who warms up your bed. A f**k toy.”Every word was like a dagger that pierced straight through Jayden’s heart.He never intended to hurt her, but the consequences of his actions had inadvertently inflicted a wound. Far deeper than he could have imagined.“I’m sorry.” His deep, hoarse voice rang in the room.“F**k you and f**k your sorry.” The last thing she wanted to hear was his apology. “Sign the papers and end this once and for all.”“I won’t sign,” With a swift motion, Jayden tore the papers.But Nina was relentless. She took out another copy and placed it before him. “I knew you would do this, so I brought multiple copies,”A sudden wave of panic surged through Jayden. He stood at the same spot and his fingers tightened into a fist. “Don’t force me, Nina,” he warned in a dangerous tone.Nina could feel the sudden drop in the temperature. Jayden’s expression grew violent, as dark as the night, and for a moment Nina was afraid.Seeing the fear in her eyes, Jayden
The CEO's Contract Lover Meeting again
Six months later…The rich aroma of the food wafted through the air as Nina stirred the curry with one hand, attentively listening to the news on her phone. Just then, her phone began to ring. Switching her phone to speaker mode, Nina answered the call. “Hey!”“I hope you don’t have any plans tonight. We’re going to the Fantasy nightclub.” Nora’s voice came through the line.“Again? It’s the third time this month.” It seemed like the nightclub had become their go-to destination recently.“Don’t tell me you’ve set a limit on how many times you can visit a club?” Nora asked in disbelief.Nina chuckled. “No, not at all. I just don’t want to become addicted to the nightlife.”“Better than getting addicted to love. Anyway, be ready by ten. I’ll pick up Krystal first and then head to your place.”“That’s fine. I need to buy some clothing materials, so I’ll meet you guys directly at the club.”“Alright.”Nina hung up the call and hummed a song as she continued her cooking.Six months had pas
The CEO's Contract Lover Missed you
For once, they were almost certain they had mistaken the person in front.That was because the so-called exclusive male escort bore an uncanny resemblance to…Jayden Luxton.The manager, however, was oblivious to their reactions and introduced the male escort to them.“I’m sure you’ve heard of the billionaire, Jayden Luxton, the most eligible bachelor in Spring City. In an online poll, he was ranked as the number one fantasy, women wanted to sleep with. Since they couldn’t have CEO Luxton himself, they requested us to bring someone who resembles him closely.”Upon hearing his words, the women in the room let out a collective sigh of relief.No wonder they looked the same. They briefly suspected that Jayden had a side business at the nightclub.“I’ll take him,” Nina announced.———In the room next door.In a drunken stupor, Nina sat at the edge of the bed, holding a glass of champagne in her hands. She looked at the male escort and beckoned him over. “What’s your name?”The male escort
The CEO's Contract Lover Win her back
Jayden rolled under the covers, reaching out to hug the person beside him. But his hand met with the empty sheets.With a start, he sat up and ran his hand through his tousled hair to gather his thoughts. The vivid memories of the night flooded back, making him sigh in exasperation.If not for the nail scratches on his upper body, he might have considered it all a dream.A dream he had yearned for during their long separation.In those long months, he had kept himself busy, hoping that the heavy workload would help him forget about her.He had assumed that after not seeing each other for a while, he might feel nothing, but he had underestimated the strong influence she had on him.Just one glance from her was enough to crumble down the self-control he was so proud of.There was no shortage of women throwing themselves at him, and he had even considered the possibility of moving on in his life.Yet, no one could fill the void or provide the spiritual satisfaction that Nina brought into
The CEO's Contract Lover Banned
“Mom, where did you just go? I’ve been waiting for a long time. You could’ve at least called me,” Emilia, who had been waiting for her in the car, expressed her displeasure.“I’m sorry, love. I was so engrossed in shopping that I lost track of time.” Alaina quickly apologized for neglecting her. They had planned to go shopping together today, but she had accidentally left her daughter behind.Emilia pouted. “Since you’re late, you owe me a new dress for tonight.”Alaina pinched her daughter’s cheek affectionately. “One’s not enough. I’ll buy two for my precious.”Emilia grinned. “You said it!”As the car drove away, Nina remained rooted to the spot in a daze.She hadn’t even realised that her grip on the shopping bag had tightened as she watched their heartwarming interaction.What a small world!Nina had never expected the daughter Alaina spoke of was none other than Emilia.Observing the playful banter between the mother and daughter, Nina couldn’t help but feel a pang of envy.The
The CEO's Contract Lover Because you are not her
“I just wanted to have a good chat with you,” Emilia began, “Jayden, we’ve known each other for so long, but you’ve never touched me. Even when we dated, the farthest we’ve gone is with the kiss. Why? Am I not attractive? In what way am I inferior to that cheap woman?” By the end of her sentence, her voice was tinged with a sense of longing and resentment.She really could not understand.In terms of appearance, she looked better than Nina. Thanks to advanced technology, even her sexy figure outshined most models. She also came from a prestigious family and was a winner in life.She had assumed that after separating him and Nina, she could have Jayden back in her life.But, over the past six months, he had kept his distance from her, preventing her from getting close to him. While it may have appeared to the outside world that they had reconciled, only she knew the truth.If only he had been obedient and stayed with her, she wouldn’t have resorted to extreme measures.Jayden’s gaze he
The CEO's Contract Lover Becoming Enemies
Nina’s eyes widened when she saw the watch. She had no clue how his watch got left behind.Her fingers fidgeted nervously as she tried to gather her thoughts.“Nina, I know he has occupied a big part of your life and perhaps your heart, too. But have you forgotten that you’ve ‘divorced’ him?” Tyler continued, with a lump in his throat.Nina’s eyes welled up with regret. She bit her lip and finally confessed, “I… It’s not what you think.”“And what does it make me, then?”Since she had already decided to date him, was she still in contact with her ex-husband?Taking a deep breath Nina explained, “It was an emergency. I’m sorry, and I understand how this looks, but please, trust me. I promise it won’t happen again.”“I trust you, Nina. But we’ve been together for a while now. I thought we were building something special. I can’t help but feel hurt that you kept this from me.”Nina watched the sadness etched across Tyler’s face, and her guilt deepened. “I’m sorry,” she whispered, her voi

The CEO's Contract Lover Finale (2)
“I think this is a lot for Nina to process right now,” Jayden said in a protective tone. “We appreciate you sharing this with us, but she needs some time. We’ll talk about it later when she’s ready.” Isaac and Alaina exchanged a glance, recognizing the need for patience and understanding. “Of course,” Isaac replied, his voice gentle. “We’ll be here whenever she’s ready to talk.” At that moment, Isaac’s phone rang, breaking the heavy silence in the room. He excused himself with an apologetic look and answered the call. As he listened to the voice on the other end, his expression changed drastically. After a brief conversation, he hung up and turned to the couple. His expression was somber as he stood up and held Alaina’s hand. “I’m sorry, but I have urgent work that requires my immediate attention. We’ll have to leave for now, but we'll visit again soon.” “Take care, both of you.” Isaac nodded at them. Alaina, though confused, followed her husband. She gave a reluctant glance at
The CEO's Contract Lover Finale (1)
Speaking of his daughter, Nina, he almost cried when he thought about the abuse she had suffered at Kristen’s hands. While his daughter had to tread on thin ice just for a meal, Kristen’s illegitimate child was enjoying the luxuries that never belonged to her! Unknowingly, he had added to his daughter’s sufferings. Isaac’s regret and anguish over the past intensified as he considered the stark contrast in the lives of the two children. When he realized Nina was his and Alaina’s daughter, he immediately ordered his men to do a background check on her. Everything began to fit into pieces when he found out about Nina's relationship with Kristen. Isaac looked at the woman in front of him with disgust and called the officer over. Jayden had already done an excellent job in ensuring that Kristen faced the consequences of her actions. As for Isaac, he was determined to ensure that Kristen would rot in prison for the rest of her life, wishing she was never born. Meanwhile, the situati
The CEO's Contract Lover The truth
Isaac’s face turned ashen, and he rushed toward Alaina. Everything happened so suddenly that he could not react in time. And when he came to his senses, there was already a long cut on Alaina’s forearm. “Alaina, are you okay?” Isaac asked, his voice trembling with heartache. “I-I’m fine,” Alaina nodded, though the pain was clear in her eyes. Her arm continued to bleed, prompting Isaac to call out urgently, “Somebody, call an ambulance.” Shocked, Emilia dropped the knife from her hand. The blood drained from her face when she realized the gravity of her actions. Everyone knew Alaina was the apple of Isaac’s eye and that he treated her like a treasure. Emilia’s heart trembled when she thought about how she had inadvertently touched his Achilles' heels. She watched as everyone in the house scrambled to send Alaina to the hospital. Overwhelmed with fear and guilt, he slipped away and retreated to her room. She locked the door, hoping Isaac wouldn’t settle scores with her if any
The CEO's Contract Lover Beg him
“I’m fine. Just a little tired,” Jayden replied weakly, his eyes still closed. “I’ll be alright after sleeping for a while.” His reassurance didn’t ease Nina’s worry, though. Her heart pounded in her throat, and she could not calm down. Wiping away her tears, a trace of stubbornness appeared in her eyes as she left the ward. Once again, Nina found herself standing in front of the imposing estate. This time, she came alone and did not alert anyone. Although Jayden forbade her from contacting Isaac, fear overrode her senses. She couldn’t shake the haunting image of waking up to his cold, lifeless body one day. The door creaked open, and Nina slipped inside, her eyes scanning the elegant foyer. She knew she was pushing her luck, but she had to convince Isaac no matter what. Turning a corner, she found herself in the expansive living room. There, seated on the sofa, was none other than Emilia Moore. After suffering multiple setbacks in life, nothing seemed to have changed for E
The CEO's Contract Lover Don't leave
“WHAT!?” The room erupted in uproar. “No! You can’t. What about my son?” Lilian protested hysterically. “That’s my final order,” William asserted authoritatively. “As for you,” he addressed the woman, who was on the verge of a mental breakdown, “Let’s get a divorce.” Lilian’s eyes widened, and she slumped onto the chair with a thud. “No…” William paid no attention to her. His old body could not hold on any longer. He patted Jayden’s shoulder lightly before turning to leave. Watching him walk away, panic seized Lilian. She jumped from her seat and dashed forward. Kneeling, Lilian grasped William’s legs and pleaded for mercy. “Husband, I’m sorry. I was blinded by greed. I acknowledge my mistake, and I promise I’ll turn over a new leaf. Please don’t abandon me,” she begged. The weight of her actions only became clear when she lost everything. Without the title of Mrs. Luxton, she was nothing. “Husband…” Lilian continued to create a scene, but it was to no avail. The guards hel
The CEO's Contract Lover Proud of him
“Don’t forget, I’m still the CEO.” Jayden looked at her coldly. A derisive snicker resonated in the room that came from Jayden’s uncles. Back when William suddenly fell ill, The Luxton Corporation faced imminent danger. During that period, it was Jayden who resurrected the Luxton Corporation from the brink of collapse. Under his leadership, the business flourished with each passing day. They were indignant about letting an illegitimate son take the position of CEO. However, Jayden’s ability to manage the business left everyone speechless. Throughout the years, they had silently consented to let him toil for the Luxton Corporation. However, now that he had a few days to live, they couldn’t wait to overthrow him. “Jayden, have you forgotten that you’re a dying man right now? How much more do you think you can invest?” They mocked. He had already outlived his usefulness and so there was no need for him to stay at the company. Nina’s heart chilled at their words. Among those pre
The CEO's Contract Lover Dethrone him
With a gesture to the servant, Isaac instructed him to chase them out of his house.Although they already knew the outcome, dejection settled over Nina as they left the residence.She opened the door when she saw Jayden’s intense gaze fixed upon her.Despite his sickly pallor, his domineering aura couldn’t be concealed.Sensing the tension, Nina felt amiss. “H-Hey, you’re up?”Jayden remained silent, his icy gaze unyielding. Instead of acknowledging her greeting, he asked instead, “Where have you been?”“Nowhere in particular. I just went to learn about your treatment plan with the doctor…” Nina replied, trying to keep her tone steady.“Is that so?”Nina nodded.“Was the doctor’s name Isaac Moore?”The smile on Nina’s face froze.The look in Jayden’s eyes sent a shiver down her spine; there was a dangerous gleam that made her heart race.Panic flashed across her face when she realized Jayden had figured out everything. Helpless, she started to speak, “Jayden, I—”“Enough!” Jayden inte
The CEO's Contract Lover Hope
"I missed you. While you were away, I've never stopped thinking about you," she admitted.How could she be so selfish as to abandon him and leave everything behind? The very man who had been the reason she could step out of her shadows.She had let go of his hand when he needed her the most. The thought of not being there to witness his final moments was so agonizing that it felt like a sharp pain was piercing through her heart, leaving her breathless.Nina wiped away her tears and assured Jayden, “I’m here now. And I’ll never leave your side.”Without waiting for his reply, she expressed her intention to speak to his doctor.As she left the ward, a streak of worry flashed across Jayden’s face, “Nina…”In the doctor’s office.Closing the door behind her, Nina anxiously approached the doctor. “Doctor, how is Jayden’s situation?”The doctor furrowed his brow. “Who are you?”“I’m his wife, Nina Luxton,” she declared. She was his wife in this life and she would be his wife even after he d
