The CEOs Rejected Bride. 83. PLAN[5]: RUBY?
Delilah was definitely enjoying the attention that was now laid on her as she sat down with her brother to enjoy the view of the environment. A bottle of champagne was served in front of them with two glasses then some chopped fruits and fried chicken was placed beside them to enjoy with their meal. "It's been a while since we came out here." Delilah started speaking. Gabriel picked up the bottle of champagne and opened it slowly as he allowed the gas to release itself before pouring the content into their different cups. He smiled as he looked beyond the horizon. "I agree though." "Yeah, thank you." She said as she collected the glass of champagne and sipped it. "I heard Mrs. Young announce that you will become her daughter-in-law." He glanced at her. "I was surprised too when I heard it but I think she might have said that because she wanted to calm the ongoing rumors about her son." Gabriel relaxed on the chair and removed his sunglasses. "Really? That doesn't

Hera refused to go to work for the past few days since the whole rumor started. At this point, she just didn't care if she was going to lose her job or not. She was anxious about people's gaze on her and she didn't come online for some time too for fear of being questioned.It was finally another Monday morning, she was dressing up I'm in front of the mirror for work. What added to her depression was that Zach didn't call her. There were no text messages from him at all. This somehow affected her mental state of heart. "Is he really going to get married to her if the wedding holds?" She mumbled as she wore her long-sleeved shirt.Just then, Austin came into her room, dressed in his uniform. "Mum, someone is knocking on the door." He informed her. Hera looked at him and then nodded. "I am coming." He smiled and jumped away from the door to the sitting room. Yeah, that was the only bundle of joy that she had.When she got to the door, she looked at the camera and her heart san
Last Updated : 2023-04-24The CEOs Rejected Bride. 85. PLAN[7]: RECONCILIATION.
Zach had been driving along the road with no clear destination in mind. He wasn't drunk this time but he felt that his mind was already hazy throughout the week. It was finally the Weekend and this was the first time he was feeling this miserable over a relationship.He felt lonely and needed someone to talk with. He just wasn't sure if the person he trusted would be able to accept him. After driving around for a while, he parked the car beside the roadside and sighed. He placed his head on the steering wheel and drummed his fingers against it before lifting his head a little bit.He relaxed on the chair and pulled it backward so he would be able to rest. Zach reached out to his phone and unlocked it, he scrolled towards the contact information that he had and stopped when he got to the HER name. He was contemplating whether to call her or not. After a while of not being able to get to a conclusion, he put down the phone and thought about the issue. He had been avoiding her...he refu

It was finally Monday and things had taken a whole other level for Hera. She dressed up happily for a new day of work. She had that spirit and motivation in her to bounce back to her feet which she did. Austin also was getting dressed in his uniform. He was glad that Daddy was coming to drop him off at his school today.He would be able to boast to everyone that he had a rich daddy too who would buy him all the gadgets that he needed. The mother and son came out of their rooms at the same time, stared at each other for a while, and then burst into laughter heartily. "Do you have your things ready?" She asked him. "Yes, mummy." "If you have anything that you would like to tell me or if anyone is bothering you, do you know who you are supposed to run to?" She questioned again as she made his cereal for him. "Yes, my teacher." "That's my boy." "Did you do all your arithmetic equations right? No basic questions." "Hmm." He answered with his mouth full. "Do you nee

Immediately after they entered the company, Blake who was addressing the Boss's fifteen stopped and stared at his friend. Was this a sign that cleaning after his mess was enough? The two of them stopped and Zach turned towards her. "Will I see you during lunch?" "No, I will be hanging out with Anna and others." "Then should I drop you off after work?" "Yes, please. Thank you." "See you then," Zach said and his eyes lingered on her forehead for a while before diverting them to her eyes. It seemed as if he was asking her for permission to do it and her, blinking in return showed that she had no problem with it. So he went ahead and kissed her on her forehead.Everyone was shocked including Blake and Anna as they watched the two of them display their affection in front of the world.Blake's eyes and that of Anna met briefly. What in the world?Zach waved at his workers who in return bowed their heads repeatedly to greet him. He hung his arm around Blake's neck and pulled him along t

Selena walked out of another entertainment company that had invited her for a talk. She was in a good mood after discussing with them and was pleased. Even though the company wasn't as big as where she was, everyone was nice to her and accommodating. This was the type of environment that she wanted to work in. A non-toxic environment to begin with.Sometimes, one just has to let go of what is considered famous but void for one's inner peace and that was what she wanted.She was done trying to make her way known in that wicked company. She was going to sign under another company and make her fame there. This was her decision as she entered the cab that she had ordered.**********Hera was invited to an interview about her work. Her work had slowly been getting fame under the Young Corporation and people wanted to speak to her about it. This was her first time getting interviewed. Zach didn't want her to go through the whole process because he thought that it was going to stress her o

Hera was staring at the interviewer for a while, she was thinking about how else she would be able to answer the question without sounding rude or trying to say too much. Her question was; "Miss Hera, shifting to what had been brought to the media about you, what do you have to say to this? Are you really dating Mr. Zach?" She asked Hera.The latter thought deeply about it for a while before answering. "Why does everyone seem to be interested in that?" She chuckled.The host of the show smiled, "It's nothing personal but then I know that many of the viewers are going to be as curious as I am right now. Moreover, if you can say something about this to the public maybe it will reduce the case of the rumor. Mrs. Jennie Young Albert already mentioned that Miss Delilah and Mr. Zach are going to get engaged very soon on a not yet arranged date.What do you have to say to this?" "I have nothing to say to it. Mr Zach is her son but that still doesn't give her the right to decide who he is

Zach got called into his father's room by the time he got home. He had not been coming home frequently because he just couldn't deal with the pressure from his mum however he didn't totally abandon them as that was going to be bad. He just made sure to avoid his mum whenever he felt like she was going to start saying something that could anger him. Zach just didn't understand why they were so hell-bent on him not being with Hera. Hera was totally the nicest girl that he had ever known so why were they going so extreme, especially his mother?At this point, he was inside his parents' bedroom. His mother was not at home because there was no sign of her around. Zach patiently waited for his father to come out of his closet, fully dressed before greeting him. "Good evening, Dad." Ezekiel looked at him and nodded, "Hmm. It's been a while. How are you doing?" He asked and sat on the bed with his legs on it after jamming them together to get the dirt off. "I am doing fine.

The CEOs Rejected Bride. 100. HAPPY ENDING?
THREE MONTHS LATER.Hera was standing in front of Austin's picture. She was staring at it with mixed and complicated emotions in her eyes before rubbing her hand on it. She smiled at the picture and sighed.Zach came behind and kissed her neck. "Hey, Are you okay?" He asked her. "Yeah." She answered and turned around. Hera placed her hands around his neck. "I was just remembering what had happened in the last few months." She said and received a kiss on her forehead. "Hmm. It's probably for the best." Zach answered this time around.The best? A happy ending? "Come on, let's go. We don't want to be late, do we?" He held her hand and the two of them walked out of the room in matching outfits. Zach locked the door before opening the car for Hera. They both entered and wore their seatbelts at once, causing Hera to smile.Today was Thanksgiving and Ezekiel alongside his wife had invited her over to join the rest of the family. As he drove them, there was a song playing un
The CEOs Rejected Bride. 99. SAVED AT LAST.
Hera was crying while sitting inside the station. She really missed her son and prayed that nothing would go wrong with him. The more Zach watched this, he was going crazy but he couldn't do anything because the cops were still trying to figure it out. Also, the process seemed to be slow to him. He sat beside her and placed her head on his shoulder while she was crying. "I am sorry. He will be fine, I promise."Hera thought, how could he promise such when he didn't know what to do? She just wanted her son back no matter what. "We have been able to find the location." The cops informed them and Hera stopped crying immediately. She stood up. "Let's go." "Sure."Just then her phone rang and she answered it. "Have you done the video yet..."Someone started shouting from beneath and it seemed that a fight was going there. Hera and others could hear Austin scream. It was evident what they were fighting for because the swearing and shouts were just too much. But Hera could hear the s
The CEOs Rejected Bride. 98. KIDNAPPED!
"I love you, Uncle Ben," Austin said eagerly to Ben but the man was less concerned. He was frowning deeply. "You love me? I can't see how you love me. You exposed me in front of Mrs. Young. Do you know the problem that you have made me go through? Now I will end up in army school." He answered. "So what? You will become stronger and you will be serving the country as well." Austin saluted and Ben just covered his face with his palms. Why was he babysitting this boy? He was too old for his age. "Do you need ice cream?" Ben asked him after a while because it would be better if he pleased the young boy and he gives a good report about him at home then he wouldn't have to go to the military. "Yes," Austin answered and Ben nodded. "Wait here, let me get you one..." A van suddenly came from nowhere and Austin was grabbed into it fiercely...the kidnappers not bothering to check for any physical injuries or if Austin might have hit something with any parts of his body.

The CEOs Rejected Bride. 97. CUT OFF PROMISE.
"Hello there. Good evening. It's lovely to see you tonight." Elizabeth grabbed Jennie harshly to hug her. Ezekiel had invited them over for dinner with his family and even Hera alongside Zach was shocked to see them. He stared at his parents suspiciously as disappointment showed on his face. Why were they here in the first place if not because his parents were trying to make him go against his wish? He hissed and wanted to leave but Hera pulled him back. "You have to be patient. You can't just jump to a conclusion without knowing what is going on." She convinced him. "If this has to deal with me leaving you then they should forget about it because it's not going to work at all." He replied and Hera sighed. Sincerely, she hoped that it wouldn't come to that. "Where is Gabriel?" Ezekiel asked Cyril. "Oh, he went back to the country. He said that he had a concert or something like that. Delilah will check up on him anyway." he answered. "That's great," Ezekiel responded. Jennie could
The CEOs Rejected Bride. 96. TRUE LOVE, RIGHT?
By the time Jennie got back home, she just needed somewhere to rest and also someone to keep her company. A lot of things had been happening and she had been thinking a lot lately which was not good for her health. She held the side of her gown while holding to her fashion bag as she walked into the mansion, her expensive heels clicking against the surface of the hard tile.She looked around wondering where everybody could have gone but she didn't see anyone except a few maids working at a distance. Just as she was about to climb the staircase, she started hearing some noises that later seemed to be whispers and after a while, grew into a full-blown loud conversation.Ben came out of a corner talking affectionately to someone on the phone. "Yeah...I know and I love you too. Babe...babe, just listen to me, okay? I will get you whatever it is that you want and I will come and visit at school...a lot, darling. There are business engagements and stuff for me to run. Hera isn't working
The CEOs Rejected Bride. 95. A FEW DAYS AGO.
Delilah was so mad that she went to look for Jude and she did find him where he was the last time, doing his work. This time around the place was a bit too crowded but she didn't care about it or her image. She was only here because she wanted to bear her disappointment against him.Jude, after he saw her, closed the trunk of the car and approached her. "Hey." He waved at her. "Hey? So, you have the gut to tell me HEY after you failed in the mission I sent you on? How could you? You ruined every single bit of my own. Was it wrong on my side to have trusted you? What happened? Why did you change your mind?" She asked him furiously.Jude removed a stick of cigarettes and put it into his mouth. He lit the bottom and threw away the lighter before puffing out the smoke. He then looked at her. She was indeed mad because she and the angry bird were not that different from each other in appearance anymore. "I just couldn't do it after running my background check on them." He answere
The CEOs Rejected Bride. 94. I STILL DON'T ACCEPT.
"I am a bit nervous tonight," Hera whispered. This was going to be the first time that she would be meeting Ezekiel Young Albert. Zach licked his lips and nodded. "I am also nervous because I don't know what he might say, to be sincere." He answered her. "But you did well tonight. You did great. I just couldn't imagine that. Tomorrow, I am sure that your name is going to be in the headlines. I am sorry if that's going to bring pressure on you or anything..." "No, it's not going to bring any pressure on me. I am fine as long as I have you by my side, right?" She looked at him hopefully. Her eyes were like that of a panda and all Zach just wanted to do was to snuggle her closer to himself but he was driving. "Yes, we will always be together at each other's sides." He assured her.Finally, they arrived at the mansion and Hera was baffled by how good everywhere looked even though it was nighttime already. They were indeed very rich. No wonder Jennie was so concerned about
The CEOs Rejected Bride. 93. PLAN FLOPPED.
As Delilah was walking around with a silly face, her eyes were looking for one particular person. Why wasn't he here yet? He was supposed to come before they arrived. Maybe he was planning a grand entrance perhaps. That thought alone caused her to have goosebumps. She collided with someone and it happened to have been Hera. She frowned deeply but Hera wasn't moved. "My goodness, I am so sorry." She apologized and wanted to leave. "Sorry?" Delilah scoffed and folded her arms. "Yeah?" Hera answered. What else was she supposed to say? She had never had any confrontation with Delilah before so this was the first time that this was going to come up. "You are just too full of yourself nowadays just because you are already dating Zach." She spat out. Hera feigned confusion. "Excuse me?" "You are not getting excused. You collided with me and almost ruined my dress." She replied.Hera sighed and sincerely hoped that things wouldn't go wrong because tonight, she was going to be doing onl
