2024-10-29 19:42:56Abbi's POV
I yawned as I stretched my arms and feet, twisted and turned my body on the bed. What a night. I refused to open my eyes waiting for another round of sleep to take over, but after waiting for minutes without falling asleep, I opened my eyes.
Shopping with Lau is a whole lot of work. I never imagined spending that many hours shopping. And she didn't even buy much. My legs were still aching.
I reached out for my phone on the nightstand but couldn't find it. It was then I realized I was still in yesterday's clothes. I don't remember coming here. Eric must have been the one who brought me in. He must be downstairs. I got up from bed and freshened up. It's just 7 am, I should have slept longer.As soon as the elevator opened, a very strong aroma hit my nose. I walked

Eric’s POV“Yes Sir. Absolutely. I will send you the designs we have and the floor plan for them. You can choose which one you would like… Definitely. Have a lovely day.” I cut the call with Mr. Henry.I was able to get him to increase his budget for the mall he wanted. Since this was done, I decided to go have lunch. I came out of my office only to see my wife crying.I don’t like it when she cries, I don’t like seeing it. The only time I saw her cry was when I told her about her parents and since then I swore never to make her cry.I sure wasn’t expecting her to tell me the problem on my first try but I absolutely didn’t expect her to lie to me giving that lame excuse. I then understood that whatever

Abbi's POV"Why are you crying? Crying won't solve anything. You've cried enough. Besides, nothing happened...It just almost happened.”“You can't let this destroy what you've built. You're strong, this little incident should not bring you down. You can't let all the confidence you built over the past months die because of this.”“You're fine, as long as you don't see him everything is fine. You just have to not bump into him. Even If that happens, just ignore him. Yes. Yes, that's it. You're strong." I finished speaking to my reflection in the mirror.I checked the time and it was past 8 pm. Eric should have been back by now. He should be downstairs.I flinched as I turned towards the door to see Eric

Abbi's POVI arrived at the entrance of the office and contemplated going in, after all, I was already really late. I was about to go back home when I noticed some people leaving the building with their bags and a box. These were not just ordinary employees. All of them held very important positions in the company.Most of the people I saw belonged to the fashion department and had something to do with the clothing store. I didn’t realize I was already in the building until I heard my name from a familiar voice. I looked around and spotted Lisa walking towards me.“There you are. I was so worried. Are you just coming to work?” She questioned, concerned after seeing me with my bag.“I’m fine. What’s going on here? Why are they lea

It's been two weeks now and we've filled up the vacancies.I thought things would be less busy but I had been walking down and up since morning getting some lists from the HR, sales, and design departments to Eric. I wonder why they were not sent through emails.It was lunchtime and I set out to get lunch for myself and Eric.I came back with our lunch and was going to eat at my desk when he called me back."Eat with me." He said."But someone might come in" I replied."Now how many people have you seen in this office since you started working here?" He asked. We both know the answer t
The CEO's Secret Wife Chapter 18: Silence
Eric's POVI never imagined that I would ever have to see Tasha again. She was long forgotten in my past. I wonder what she wants from me. How did she even know I worked here and was the CEO? I know very well I never told her that and I’m sure none of my sisters did.It definitely felt suspicious. My relationship with Abbi is just at its beginning, I don't want anything or anyone to ruin it.“Stop it, Eric,” she cut me off, her voice laced with sadness.“But I…”“It’s okay Eric, let's get back to work. We are in the office, not at home. Only talk to me about work matters here,” she focused back her attention on the computer screen.She didn't

Eric's POVLike other days this week, today has been busy. And to top it all off, she's here again.She said something about missing me and not being able to forget me ever since we broke up. I knew better than to believe whatever it was she was saying. It's been almost four years since we broke up and she's here now.Tasha was the most beautiful girl on campus. I didn't know that because I never paid attention to school gossip. I was always with Mark and Mark didn't really care about all these even though I think he knows since he likes collecting information on everyone.I had just graduated from university and Tessa just got into the same university so there was a party for her and her mates. That was where I first saw Tasha. I didn't really pay attention to her but a

Abbi's POVTasha walked out of Eric's office clearly angry. She looked at me hatefully and hissed before departing my office. I wonder what he said to her to make her this angry."What did you say to her to make her that angry?" I asked, after going into his office expecting an answer from him but he only gestured for me to come beside him. When I reached him, he pulled me into his lap."What are you doing Eric? Someone might come in." I said trying to get up his lap."Relax my love. No one will come in." He said, placing a kiss on the back of my neck, sending shivers down my body.I needed to distract myself and him, or else it'd turn into something else."You didn't answer my qu

I thought she was gone for good. Seems like I couldn't get rid of her."She slapped me," Tasha complained to me crying without tears. I was surprised to hear that, especially when Abbi didn't deny it. I then knew that she must have gotten on her nerves.I was there watching both of them speak without really understanding what they were saying. I was just standing there looking at my wife with shock and admiration. I have never seen her speak like this before. I was happy to know this side of her.I was still praising her In my mind when I felt a lips on mine. I looked at wh

Eric’s POV“W-why isn’t she crying? why isn’t she breathing?” she asked, her voice laced with fear. “Why the hell is my baby not breathing? Eric, she’s not breathing,” Abbi said wailing. “What do you mean she’s not breathing?” I took Claribel from her hand and tried waking her up but no response. We quickly rushed her to the hospital.Abbi held on to me for comfort, fearing for the worst as the doctors attended to our daughter. The doctor approached us after what felt like an eternity, with an unreadable expression. “No…no,” she whispered shaking her head defiantly after looking into the doctor's eyes, waiting for the heartbreaking news. “We managed to save her,” said the doctor, surprising both of us. “But she’s still in a critical condition. She has been starved for a week which has greatly weakened her immune system and other organs, therefore her development may be slower than normal. However, we’re monitoring her recovery and she should be fine by the month's end.”We were sti

Abbi’s POVI have been waiting nervously in the van. I didn’t want to wait there and do nothing to get my baby back. Once she noticed the guy in the van wasn’t paying attention to me but on the footage of the drone he was flying following that monster I grew up with, I sneaked out of the Van. Making my way carefully into the park, I saw Andras. I was filled with rage and hate towards the man I once called dad. I immediately charged towards him without thinking, holding him by his collar. “Where is my daughter? Where did you keep my baby?” I yelled, gripping him tightly and pulling him by his collar.“Oh Abigail my dear daughter, I see you found me. ..But it was foolish of you to come here on your own.” He sneered, noticing no one was with me. Fear crept into me as I remembered all he put me through while growing up. He’s so evil that he’ll not even think twice about doing the same to my baby.“Now you’ll have to die with your pathetic baby.” “Where the hell is my child, what did

Eric's POV Everyone had their attention on her now. “I know where he is. I know where he kept my baby.” Abbi cried. “There is an underground basement in that park. It is hidden behind…” She closed her eyes, trying to remember the location of the basement. “It’s right behind the weird-looking large oak tree that is beside the restroom on the left corner of the park…Oh God, my baby…Eric…that place has no proper ventilation. Our baby…” She shivered in fear as she sobbed. I quickly held her in my arms. “Nothing is going to happen to Claribel, my love. She'll be just fine,” I whispered to her.“I have informed James. We have to head to the station to plan how to raid the place tomorrow,” Mark said.“Let me come with you,” Abbi said before we could leave.“No, my love, you’re not going anywhere. You’re going to stay here while I go with Mark.” I said seriously.“But I'm the one who knows that place the best,” she argued.“And I'm sure Mark and Damien's men can find the place easily with
The CEO's Secret Wife Bonus Chapter 2
Eric’s POVIt’s been one week since Abbi gave birth. One week since our daughter was kidnapped and one week since we found out that Andras, her long-forgotten dad, was behind the kidnapping. Abbi has barely eaten and barely spoken to anyone. She just sleeps, wakes, and cry. I'm glad that she still speaks sometimes and she did not run insane. Everyone took turns in visiting and trying to encourage her.Lau canceled her show, Tessa flew back from Texas with her husband, and Lisa always came to her everyday. With Mark and James' help, we were able to find out that Andras was in a huge debt and he probably found out Abbi is living well through our wedding pictures that circulated on the internet two months ago. He has been following her up until the hospital. He had gambled away all the money he got from giving Abbi away. Which surprised me because it’s been just two years, not even that yet and he was given two hundred million dollars.They have been trying to track him down for the

Abbi's POVI'm gonna kill you today Eric!” I said, limping gracefully and carefully around the house, with my baby bump chasing Eric who turned my face into an artwork of a three-year-old.“I'm sorry my love,” he laughed.“No, you're not. I'm going to deal with you once I get my hands on you,” I said, still trying to catch him.After a good while of running after him, I sat down and began to cry.“You know I'm going out to dinner soon with Lau and Tess, and you turned my face into an art museum,” she sobbed.“I'm sorry my love,” He said, coming close to her. “I didn't mean to hurt you. Please don't cry,” he said, trying to coo me. I know just how to get him.Before he knew what was happening, I held him tight and poured the cup of cold water beside me on him.“Gotcha!” I laughed victoriously. Eric just stood there looking at me amusingly. “Now I have to clean this off my face before time catches up with me” I smiled standing up. “Be careful love, you don’t want to slip” he said, hol

Abbi's POV "And why not? It's not like we're going to a party." I was annoyed at what was happening. “You just can’t wear that. If you want to see Eric, you won’t wear that. Go change” she insisted. I can't understand why she’s doing this, why everyone is hiding something from me. I reluctantly went to change my dress. “Just pick something for me to wear. I’m tired of changing. I just want to see Eric now,” I complained after trying on more than three outfits already. After dressing up in the outfit she picked, she ushered me out of the house into her car, driving me to my husband, I just hoped he was alright. We arrived at our supposed destination. I was already

I robbed my belly smiling.Just then, Eric came in with the things I asked him to buy. "Hey love, I'm back." He said dropping what he bought in my front. I eagerly picked it up and opened the bag only for my smile to drop."This isn't what I want." I cried."I wanted the strawberry flavor of the drink. You bought me cinnamon rolls but I wanted coconut bread. I also wanted the spicy chicken but you bought the mild one." I complained in tears."I'm sorry my love. I'm really sorry. Please don't cry, I don't like it when you cry. I'll go get you exactly what you want." He said, maki

Abbi's POVI'm sure everyone heard that voice. It held so much anger in it and it... sounded like Eric's. No one was talking anymore. All the murmurs stopped. And I guess everyone's attention was on the person who spoke.My head was hurting too bad for me to turn and see who it was even though my heart, mind, soul, and body knew who it was."Girlllll... your husband is here to save the day." Lisa squealed in my ear before helping me fully stand.In a few seconds, he was standing next to me and his cologne wrapped around me. It's been only a day but goodness, I missed him badly."You dare raise your hands on my woman? What gave you that right?" He questioned, looking into the depth of her soul with anger. I've neve

Abbi's POVI was about to say something but stopped when I saw pictures of myself on all five screens in the lobby. These were not just pictures of me. The pictures were of me forcing myself on Eric which I could not understand because I could swear with my life that this scene had never transpired between us.It wasn't until I saw one of me kissing him while he was asleep I understood what was going on and who was behind it.Abygale. That freaking devil.How could she go this far? She even went as far as editing so many photos in just one night.
