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. CH 01. PAINFUL HEARTBREAK 1.
Hera was running in the rain but not at a fast pace. It was quite dark due to nature's course of events. Even though it was cold, she had hot burning tears streaming down her now pale skin. That night was the darkest and most unforgettable night of her life as she was forced to experience a second death to her recovering heart that was filled with injuries that were scarcely bandaged. Why did this happen to her? Was it bad to ask for just one time a chance to be happy and to forget her sorrow?... Just one time to try to live in her world of fantasies?Someone who appeared to be a man ran up to her and grabbed her right hand, forcefully turning her around. He was breathing heavily as the rain reduced its power of pouring. " He...Hera, you've got to listen to me, okay? Don't jump to any conclusion yet, I need to explain what you saw earlier and it's not what you think. " " What did you say? It's not what I think? How could you have done this to me? She is my stepsister! Even if yo

" But that does not serve as an excuse to have betrayed me just like that. You could have told me about it. " Hera replied. The rain wasn't pouring much anymore as it had now turned to a drizzle but the thunder still rumbled in the sky occasionally. James chuckled unrepentantly. " Yes, you are right. That isn't supposed to be an excuse. To be frank, I hate you, I really do. " He declared. The thunder struck again, a bit louder at James's words giving it a dramatic entrance. " You...You ha...hate me, James? " " Yes, with everything in me. " He answered. Hera could not react again as she kept on facing rejection after rejection so she could only stare at him with hopelessness in her tired eyes. " The first day I met you, I knew we wouldn't last long. Your family wanted to give you away to me by any means because you're a pain in their lives as they told me. I wasn't interested in you but your sister. She has that beautiful face, big and round ass, plump breasts, straigh
The CEOs Rejected Bride. CH 03. MEET BY FATE.
In City A's famous airport, two men could be seen walking hastily out of the area. It had started to rain so everyone was finding a good spot to keep their heads and body from the rain but the two men weren't unfazed by what was going on as they had their umbrellas. One was the driver and assistant while the other was the boss. He was dressed formally in a business suit and had a powerful personality. The assistant quickly carried his luggage into the car and opened the door for him. He entered and the car's door was shut. The assistant got into the driver's seat, brought the engine back to life, reversed a little, and zoomed off out of the airport at high speed.The car's heater was soon turned on to keep his boss and probably himself warm as he drove. The man's phone rang and he answered the call at the first ring. " Hello, mother. " " Zacharias, where are you? " The woman asked her son. Zach obviously knew that whenever his mum called his name in full then she was impatient
The CEOs Rejected Bride. CH 04. WHERE IS MY SON?
Ben drove into the Young mansion and parked the car where it was expected to be. He got out of it and locked the car before moving to the car's trunk to carry Zach's luggage. He walked into the mansion where he saw the rest of the family waiting for both him and his boss. He dropped the luggage beside him and waved. " I am back, everyone. " He greeted.The Madam of the house walked towards him and tried to look outside for any traces of her son but there was nothing. She looked at Ben confusingly. " Where is Zach? Where is my son? " She asked. Ben stared at his boss's mother before giving her and the family the reply he was told to give. " Something urgent came up so he went to his penthouse. " He replied. " He will be back tomorrow morning. " He assured them as he looked from one member to another.Madam Young gritted her teeth at her son's behavior. " That liar! Does he not know he ought to be here for family dinner? What is it that came up urgently that he had t
The CEOs Rejected Bride. CH 05. I DON'T NEED YOUR HELP!
The night soon gave way to the brightness of the day. Hera's bright blue eyes fluttered open. She blinked them severally as she looked around her. She had no idea where she was but judging from the monitor, she got to know that she was in a hospital. Then it suddenly dawned on her what happened last night as the memories flooded back like a river and clashed against each other like swords on a battlefield. She felt a headache coming and she hissed.Her son. He must have been scared when she didn't come home last night and her nightmare wasn't good because it was all about him so she lifted her stressed body from the bed and looked around her only to meet a strange pair of light brown eyes staring at her. She seemed confused at first but because of the motherly instinct in her, she just wanted to go home. " Good morning. Here, have a cup of water. " Zach gave her a warm glass of water which she collected and drank at a go. Zach was about to start explaining why she was in the hospi
The CEOs Rejected Bride. CH 06. SHARP FAMILY REJECTION.
Hera paid the cab driver out of the money she had stolen from Zach's pocket and the driver left. She had calculated everything, she had no money with her, and not even her purse was with her so Zach was the available option. From his looks, he was the rich one... stealing a little cash was definitely nothing to him. She stared at the gate of her home...pft, her mind cracked into miserable laughter. Home? This was no longer the home she was born into. This was just a house...a building meant to shelter her and her son.She moved closer and the gateman opened the gate for her to enter. She walked into the small mansion eagerly. The first thing she noticed was her so-called family having breakfast while her son just sat at a corner with a piece of bread watching them eat. There were no words to describe how she felt about this. She ran towards her son whose face was now lifted a little bit after seeing his mum. " Mom? " He spoke, getting the attention of the family members. " Aus

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
