The CEO's Puzzling Obsession CHAPTER 50
Lois winced, the words piercing through her already shattered heart. She felt the weight of guilt pressing down on her, the burden of responsibility she carried for both her daughter and her granddaughters. Tears welled up in her eyes, a mixture of sorrow and self-blame. "How dare you say that to me?" Lois choked out, her voice trembling with emotion. "I love those girls as if they were my own. I would never intentionally put them in harm's way." The air around them crackled with tension as emotions ran high. The rest of the group sensed the escalating conflict and rushed to defuse the situation before it spiraled out of control. "Enough!" Detective Ryan interjected, his voice firm and commanding. "We're here to find the girls, not assign blame. Let's focus on the task at hand and work together." His words resonated with the others, a reminder of their shared goal and the need to set aside personal grievances in the face of a crisis. Meg, who had been observing the tense excha

5mmmmEthan's gaze locked with Amanda's as he stood outside the car, a mix of determination and concern etched on his face. She watched him intently, her voice filled with worry as she questioned his sudden change of plans. "Why aren't you getting in, Ethan? We need to leave before the situation becomes complicated," Amanda urged, her voice tinged with urgency. She could sense that something was amiss, but she couldn't quite grasp the reason for his hesitation. Ethan's eyes narrowed, his jaw set firmly as he met Amanda's gaze. He knew he had to confront the looming danger head-on, even if it meant venturing into the unknown. With a firm resolve, he replied, "I'll be right back, Amanda. There's something I need to take care of. Stay in the car, and make sure no harm befalls you." His words were tinged with a mix of protectiveness and underlying sarcasm. Amanda hesitated for a moment, studying Ethan's face. She knew there was something important he wasn't telling her, but she a

As Ethan crumpled to the floor, his consciousness fading, his mind raced with questions and fears. Who had struck him down? What awaited him in the grip of unconsciousness? And most importantly, what had he stumbled upon that had triggered such a violent and calculated response? In the midst of the chaos, Amanda's voice continued to echo from the phone, unheard and unanswered. The unanswered call served as a haunting reminder of the dangers that lurked within the shadows, threatening to consume not only Ethan but also those he held dear. In the ensuing silence, the hallway regained its eerie stillness, its secrets buried once again beneath layers of darkness. The truth remained elusive, locked behind the veil of the unknown. And as Ethan lay unconscious, his fate hanging in the balance, the battle for justice and survival reached a critical turning point, its outcome uncertain and fraught with peril. ************ As Ethan's consciousness slowly resurfaced, the pain in his head

Without hesitation, they sprinted toward the truck, their voices filled with reassurance and promises of rescue. The ropes that bound Kamsi and Nancy's hands and feet became their focus, their fingers working deftly to free them from captivity. As the last knot was undone, the girls stumbled out of the truck, their bodies trembling from fear and exhaustion. Lois rushed forward, enveloping them in a tight embrace, her relief palpable. "Grandma, we saw mother. My mother. My mother is… she is inside the truck!" Nancy said, crying. **************** The revelation sent shockwaves through the weary search party, their hearts pounding with a mixture of disbelief and hope. They watched Nancy and Kamsi, their tear-streaked faces filled with anguish, as they adamantly insisted that their mother, Kristen, was inside the van. Their cries pierced the night, their pain echoing in the rain-soaked air. Lois, her voice trembling with a mix of concern and reassurance, knelt down beside the gi

In the dimly lit room, the guards surrounded Ethan, their expressions devoid of mercy or compassion. Each held a sinister tool of torment, ready to carry out their sadistic orders. The air was heavy with anticipation, as Ethan braced himself for the unimaginable pain that was about to be inflicted upon him. One of the guards approached Ethan with a pair of pliers, gripping them tightly in his gloved hand. He leaned in close, a sadistic grin spreading across his face, relishing in the power he held over Ethan's suffering. Without a word, he clamped the sharp metal jaws of the pliers onto Ethan's exposed fingertips, applying pressure with calculated precision. "Aaaaahhhh! Fuuckkk! Please man, please just fucking stooool!" A searing pain shot through Ethan's body, his fingers throbbing as the pressure intensified. Agonizing cries escaped his lips, his voice strained and filled with despair. His body trembled uncontrollably as he fought against the overwhelming pain, his mind consume

In the early hours of the morning, as the clock struck four, the city awoke to a serene yet damp atmosphere. The heavy rainfall from the previous night had left its mark, with puddles scattered throughout the streets. Passing cars sent ripples through the water, causing it to splash onto neighbouring surfaces. Amidst this quiet backdrop, the hospital stood as a beacon of activity. Nurses and doctors moved with purpose, their footsteps echoing through the hallways. They tended to patients, responding to emergencies, and diligently carrying out their duties. The hospital's clock ticked softly, marking the passing of minutes, hours, and seconds. Inside a hospital room, Kristen lay motionless on the bed, surrounded by her family. Lois never left her side, her face etched with worry and exhaustion. Nancy and Kamsi clung to their grandmother, seeking solace and reassurance. Zach stood by their side, his eyes filled with a mix of anguish and hope. Even Meg, Kristen's 'once-friend-

Two months had passed since Kristen was admitted to the hospital, her life hanging in the balance. In this fragile state, her loved ones clung to hope, praying for her recovery and cherishing every precious moment they had with her. Among them was Zach, her husband, who now sat by her side on a beautiful Saturday morning, the room devoid of any other presence. Alone with his thoughts, Zach's heart was heavy with regret. He couldn't help but replay the events that had led them to this point. He regretted ever doubting Kristen, believing that she was the real 7665, the notorious killer who had haunted their lives. The weight of his misguided beliefs pressed down on him, tormenting his conscience. His mind wandered back to that fateful night when Kristen had unexpectedly returned home and discovered him in the arms of her friend, Meg. Zach couldn't help but wish he had never succumbed to temptation, never betrayed the vows they had taken together. Yet, amidst the current sit

"Hey babe! Come, come come. Take a look at this!" "What is it again Hun? You just got back from work. You should have rest." "Okay, you remember I dropped my application letter with Swinda Agrochem right?" "Yeah. I do. What about it? You got the job?" "Not only did I get the job, but I was given instant promotion to be the sales manager! Crazy right?" "Hold on. This doesn't make any sense. You were just employed in the biggest company in the city. And here you are saying you were given an instant promotion? Look, I think you've taken too much alcohol today. Let me put you to sleep." "Oh, you're not my mother. Don't carry me.

"Ethan Albert!" Mr. Chester said sarcastically and laughed. "You know, being the governor of New Hilton, I highly respect and, maybe fear you! You've got some fuckin guts." He said and began to walk his way through the crowd gently. He then knelt besides Ethan's bed and smiled. Holding his hand up, he placed them on Ethan's head, probably to feel Ethan's temperature. "I wonder how you're able to escape. It's intriguing. You're alive and getting better Ethan Albert. Don't you want to meet your dear Jameson in heaven? Huh?" The governor didn't wait for a reply from Ethan. He simply stood back up, scanned the room and while everyone was yet watching, he dipped his hands in his pocket as if to pick up something. Amanda suddenly stood up. "Mr. Governor, I'd say it's best you'd leave so we avoid further complications. Ethan here has committed no crime and therefore has no charges against him. New Hilton has to hear the truth. Someone needs to say it!" She said with confide

Lois stood outside the restroom, her heart aching for Nancy. She could hear the cries and pleas from inside, the desperate longing for her mother's presence. Lois gently knocked on the door. "Nancy, my dear, please open the door. Let me in. We can talk," Lois said softly, her voice filled with compassion. But Nancy's voice came muffled through her sobs, "Go away, Granny! Leave me alone! I want Mommy!" Lois fought back her own tears, understanding the depth of Nancy's pain. She knew she had to find a way to reach her. With a heavy sigh, she took a deep breath and began to sing a familiar lullaby, the one Kristen used to sing for Nancy and Kamsi. "Hush, little one, don't you cry, Mommy's watching from the sky. Though she's gone, she's always near, in your heart, she's always here." As Lois sang, the words carried the warmth of a mother's love and the gentle reminder of Kristen's presence. Gradually, Nancy's sobs quieted, replaced by sniffles and hiccups. Finally, Nancy opene

Zach sat besides his wife crying profusely. He hated himself so much that he regretted ever getting married to such beautiful innocent woman. He just didn't deserve her. He has never deserved her. He wished Kristen would just live. Just… just open her eyes, or shake her fingers or do something. With every strength in his body that managed to control his tears, Zach pleaded endlessly to Kristen's body, begging for her just to show a sign that she was still alive. Zach couldn't just believe that his wife. His own dear wife whom he married, whom he bore 2 kids for, 2 beautiful girls for, was dead. It just.. just didn't sound right to him. Speaking of his girls, Lois finally allowed the girls to come see their mother. Kamsi and Nancy were numb. Kamsi was wailing out loudly. "Mommy please mommy! Please, just get up mommy. Look, daddy's here. Granny's here. Let's go to the beach. Please mommy!" Kamsi kept crying refusing to succumb to any of Lois's kind words. Nancy on the ot

In his passionate plea for justice, Ethan recounted the governor's desperate attempts to conceal his secrets. He spoke of the hospital attack, where he, Amanda, and Adrian had visited Beatrix, the governor's daughter. Adrian, who possessed vital information, had been living in hiding, constantly evading danger. The room fell into a heavy silence as Ethan shared his own abduction at the hands of the governor, accompanied by Colton and his father, Blake. He described the intense torture he endured, the threat to his very life. In that dark moment, it was the courage and intervention of Officer Don and Detective Ryan that saved him from the brink of death.

Colton's anger surged like a tempest within him as Ethan's words struck a nerve. He couldn't fathom how this man, whom he had meticulously planned to eliminate in that caravan, now stood defiantly before the world, exposing their darkest secrets. His fists clenched in a mix of frustration and disbelief. In his office, Blake shared in his son's astonishment. His mind raced to comprehend the implications of Ethan's survival. He reached for the telephone, intending to call Colton and discuss the unfolding crisis. However, before he could dial the number, the phone rang with a shrill urgency, revealing the caller ID: Mr. Chester, the governor himself. Fear gripped Blake as he hesitantly answered the call. The voice on the other end was filled with seething rage and menace, unmistakably that of Mr. Chester. The governor's furious words lashed out at Blake, threatening him and Colton with a slow and agonizing demise. Mr. Chester seething with anger spoke "Blake, you spineless fool

As Don declared that it was time for Ethan to go live, the room fell into a hushed anticipation. The cameraman swiftly set up his equipment, positioning the camera, laptop, and microphone before Ethan, ready to capture every word he would speak. Taking a deep breath, Don looked at Ethan with a mix of encouragement and urgency. "Ethan, now is the time," he said firmly. "Tell the world everything you've faced, everything you've seen. The governor can no longer hide." Ethan nodded, his heart pounding with a mixture of nervousness and determination. He knew that this moment would change everything, that the truth had to be exposed. With a steadying breath, he turned towards the camera, knowing that his words would reach millions of people across social media platforms, billboards, and TV shows.

As they continued their conversation, a gentle knock interrupted their discussion. Catherine hurried to the door to see who it was. Outside stood four men, dressed in heavy attire that concealed their faces, as if they were secretive workers who preferred anonymity. Curiosity filled the room as Catherine let them in, recognizing their true identities. Once inside, the men shed their elaborate garments. The first man was Officer Don, followed by Detective Ryan. The third man introduced himself as Adrian, while the fourth individual appeared to be a cameraman, equipped with a laptop, camera, and microphone, as if prepared to interview Ethan. A mixture of emotions washed over everyone, as they were overjoyed to see Don and Ryan. Catherine couldn't contain her excitement as she looked at Don. "Don, it's been so long!
