The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 137: Reuniting with her friend
Mrs. Tonia quickly greets Mrs. Juliet, "Good evening, ma'am.""Yes, welcome. Let's go in first," Mrs. Juliet ushers them into her living room. Just then, Mr. Taiye walks in too and sees the visitors, noticing Liam carefully carrying a baby in his arms. He recognizes the familiar lady as his son's secretary and immediately knows the babies are the result of the encounter they had in Liam's office."Good evening, Father," Liam happily greets his father. Mr. Taiye nods to all their greetings, while Anita nervously stares downward, feeling uncomfortable, remembering Mr. Taiye had warned her to stay clear of his son and never show her face in his company again."Mother, here are your grandkids," Liam walks over to meet his mother, who is sitting on the living room couch. He carefully places the baby boy in her arms, and Mrs. Juliet is still in shock as Liam never told her his secretary was pregnant or that he was bringing his babies home.Mr. Taiye is the most confused as he remembers he w

Liam doesn't say anything as he stands watching the two friends reunite and forgive each other. They finally stand up, and Temisa walks over to see the twin babies in their little baby bed in the living room."Wow, they look so much like Liam, but my baby resembles me more than Alfred," Temisa says, while Anita only smiles at her."It's all good, girlfriend. I wish you both a happy married life, and I will be your bridesmaid on your wedding day," Temisa proposes, and Anita shakes her head."Flora already filled that position. You will only join the train.""Okay, dear. I have to be on my way now. You know I just darted out from the house as soon as Alfred told me about your babies and that you're here with Liam. Take good care of yourself, girlfriend, as you look slim," Temisa says, while Anita nods to her."I will. Let me escort you," Anita feels all the previous heaviness in her heart disappear, and she walks out of the mansion with Temisa.They walk to the garage where Temisa's car

It was a bright and sunny day when Anita Baker, a 24-year-old woman and the first daughter of her parents, was set to graduate from university.She had five younger sisters; her father was a banker, and her mother was a trader. Anita had a fair complexion, and was quite tall, and pretty like her mother. But sometimes her father accused her mother of cheating on him and doubted that he was truly her father. Her mother had always cleared the air and told Anita not to pay attention to her father's accusations, insisting that she was really his child.Anita knew her father had threatened to perform a DNA test on her, citing that he couldn’t understand the difference in their complexions.Four of her sisters disliked her, except for her youngest sister, Glory Baker, who genuinely loved her.When they say blood is thicker than water, in Anita's case, water held more value than blood.Mr. Joshua Baker sent Anita to university to further her education, but he constantly accused his wife of ch

In the Benson Group headquarters, Mr. Taiye Jackson sat in the front row of the conference hall, having a meeting with his board members from his various companies, all registered under his name.He spoke softly to his personal assistant, almost like a whisper, "Introduce the new head to them now." The board members were waiting to meet the newly appointed CEO. His name had been announced, but no staff had yet seen him, as Mr. Taiye Jackson was the former CEO, while his late father, Mr. Benjamin Jackson, was the founder of the Benson Group of Companies, which was originally known as Benjamin and Sons Group of Companies.They sat in the conference hall, awaiting the transition of company ownership to Mr. Taiye's only son, Liam Jackson.Liam was rumored to be cold and unyielding, and the employees feared that once he took over as the new CEO of the Benson Group, they would have to face a harsh reality.Some of them had heard that Liam was arrogant, mean, and unappreciative. Nevertheless,

Mr. John smiled and replied, "My daughter studied business administration at the University of Nigeria.""That's fine. You should submit her CV to us once she's home. I’m sure we have more vacancies for new bees like her. I will be expecting to see her," Mr. Taiye replied."Father!" Liam quickly cut off his father's speech as his frown deepened."You cannot just recruit me with her yet," Liam said, and his father smiled at him, replying, "I know, son. I’m only trying to compensate Mr. John Patrick for his goodwill and commitment to working with us for over twenty years."Mr. John smiled as he bowed slightly to leave. "I will be taking my leave now, boss. Thank you, and congratulations once again, Liam," he said as he excused himself from them.Liam sighed as he heard Mr. John's last words. He walked with his father to the front of the meeting hall while they stood near the exit door, and he spoke, "Father, I don't like what you just did. There are many other ways to compensate Mr. John

Anita goes back home with her father and mother, who arrived at her school to witness her final graduation ceremony. Her mother is very happy, but her father keeps his usual non-smiling face as he drives them home.He is proud of Anita for not letting her beauty go to her head and deter her from becoming successful in life. Nonetheless, he's still confused as to why she is the prettiest of all his daughters.Even though his wife didn't give him a son, Mr. Joshua isn't bothered about that, as their customs permit a woman to inherit all her father's property, even if she is already married to another man. Still, he wonders if he is Anita's true biological father.He sighs as he drives toward their home, which is closer to the university in the city.Arriving home, he drives into their simple compound and parks. Their home is just a modest bungalow, consisting of four bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and five toilets with bathrooms.Mr. Joshua Baker is the owner of the house; he acquir

Mrs. Tonia smiled faintly at Anita as Glory made her way past with a tray of soup in her hands. Glory walked out of the kitchen, while Anita stepped in without uttering a word to her mother, but her face expressed a profound sorrow that her mom understood well."Anita," Mrs. Tonia slowly called her name."What is it, Mom?" Anita asked as she walked beside her mother."I want you to know that your father really loves you, just as he does the rest of your siblings, and he isn't against your success," Mrs. Tonia replied, holding Anita's hand in hers."Hmph," Anita sighed."I know, Mom, but I don't care about that. If Dad likes me, fine; if he doesn’t, fine. I will always see him as my father, and that's all," Anita said."Anita," Mrs. Tonia began."Mom, where's the fufu?!" Flora stepped into the kitchen, interrupting them as she looked at Anita and made her way to the kitchen cabinet to meet their mother."Mom, why are you holding her hand and talking to her? Are you begging her for somet

Mrs. Tonia didn't say anything after Flora exited the room. She sighed and walked up to sit beside Anita on the bed while Favour and Esther also exited the room. "You shouldn't be harsh with your sister. Fighting with Flora wasn't necessary," Mrs. Tonia said to Anita as she sat beside her on the bed."I know, Mom, but they keep disrespecting me too much, and it's getting out of hand," Anita replied."It’s okay. I can understand, but don’t change yourself because of them. Keep being my sweet and calm daughter," Mrs. Tonia advised."Okay, Mom." Anita sighed as she stared at her mother while Glory walked up to sit on the bed too."I've got to go now and join your father. Glory, go now, pack your bags, and come join Anita here," Mrs. Tonia said."Okay, Mom," Glory replied. She stood up from the bed and walked out of the room to the one she shares with Lisa. Flora was already in the room, arranging her clothes in the wardrobe, but she didn't say a word to Glory, who stepped in and carried

"Are you married?" Liam finally asks, sounding hurt. Anita shakes her head and replies, "No.""Then how come the babies?" Liam asks as he finally saunters over to meet her. He has missed her so much, and he doesn't look himself because of her."Anita," Liam finally approaches her, and she turns to face him, and he sees she's crying."I'm sorry," Anita cries, and Liam crosses the thin line between them and hugs her warmly."It's okay. I've missed you. I do love you," Liam comforts her in a hug, hoping whoever got her pregnant or married her doesn't step in and catch him hugging his wife.Anita wants to pull away from Liam as she inhales his cologne, realizing she's crying into his chest, but Liam hugs her tighter and raises her chin to face him."Don't you miss me?" he asks, and Anita sniffs."I do," she replies."And you don't want to kiss me or welcome me?"Anita finally raises her head properly and looks up at Liam's face.He looks sick too, so unlike him, and his beard is overgrown
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 135: Found her 2
Anita doesn't say anything as she watches her mother dress up in a green gown while she breastfeeds her little daughter, who sucks a lot, wanting to drain the remaining energy she has left."I have to go out now and buy everything we will need to eat tonight. There's no food in the kitchen, and I don't want to disturb Mama and her in-law.""Okay, Mom."Anita watches her mother walk out of the room. She carefully places her little girl down and walks to her phone to see all the text messages Liam sent to her. Her heartbeat increases as she unlocks her phone screen.She sees a lot of texts from him and love emojis and she smiles, staggering backward to sit on her bed to read his texts."What happened to you? Your mom said you got discharged from the hospital. Are you alright now? Not to worry, I will be coming down to your village to see you. But why did you shut us all out? I have really missed you. Honestly, I cannot stop thinking about the love we made, and I'm glad your mom finally
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 134: Mother's scolding
Mrs. Tonia pulls away from the mother-to-daughter hug and stares at Anita's face."It's okay, stop crying. Why did you run away, and who did you sleep with?" Mrs. Tonia questions as she walks to look at her grandkids.She stares at the two cute babies who are also awake and staring at her. She gasps in surprise as she isn't mistaken—the babies look so much like Liam, the CEO of Benson Group. She stares back at Anita, who’s also looking at her, and then back at the twin babies in their baby bed."Anita, who got you pregnant?" Mrs. Tonia asks again while Alice finally walks over to hold her hand."We can discuss this at home. Let it rest while we leave the hospital first."Mrs. Tonia sighs and looks from Alice to Anita and back to her grandbabies.They're so cute and fair, and now she knows why the CEO has kept on asking her about Anita.So he's the one that got her daughter pregnant and slept with Anita the very day he delayed her at work and made her return home late.Mrs. Tonia tries
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 133: Found her
Anita wakes up that evening with a light headache. She sits up in her bed and eats the dinner Alice brought for her from home."How are you feeling now? You need to breastfeed your babies and not starve them," Alice says. Anita finally looks at them as her eyes clear, and seeing one of them crying, Alice speaks to her."She's a girl, while the calm one here is a boy." Alice hands over the baby girl to Anita, who stares at her beautiful daughter's face.Her baby girl looks so much like Liam; even though she's very fair like her, her baby's short curly hair and round cute face resemble Liam so much. Anita's heart skips a beat as she keeps staring at her baby instead of breastfeeding her."Why are you still staring at her? Give her your breast milk" Alice finally yells at Anita, snapping her out of her daze. Anita opens up her shirt and breastfeeds her baby.The little girl in her arms stops crying after a while as she sucks on her breast. As if the second baby is aware, he resumes cryin
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 132: Finally finds out
"I know," Liam replies and smiles back."But I still miss Anita and want to see her account," he says."Tell me the truth, boss. Do you just miss Anita, or are you in love with her and have a crush on her?" Temisa asks, and she sees Liam smile, which already answers her question."Just send me Anita's profile name. Let me search for her first.""Okay, I will," Temisa replies as she sits up properly."What about Alfred?" Liam finally asks her as he sees her sit up."He's not yet home. You know he runs the hotels and club too, cheating on me," Temisa pouts."He's not. He complains about you starving him," Liam tells her, and Temisa gasps."He said that? I know Alfred is so shameless," Temisa replies, and just then Alfred returns and walks into their room, as they both use one room together. Even though the room was his before she moved into his family house. His mother had insisted they must share a room together as a couple, and he clearly heard her call him a shameless man."Who are y

The line goes still for a while."Which sister are you talking about?" Barrister Jude asks."Oh, I just remembered I have her number, as her husband's case is with me. Mrs. Tonia, of course. Don't you know your sister again?" Mr. Collins questions."Oh, you mean her daughter is in the village? Which one?""I don't know her name yet, but she's white and very fair. She just gave birth to twins, making your sister a grandmother now.""Oh! You mean Anita?" Barrister Jude asks."Is that her name? Well, I don't know. I'm just seeing her for the first time now. Let me contact your sister then. I forgot I recently got her number due to her husband's case."Mr. Collins quickly ends the call, not giving Barrister Jude any more chances to question him. He cannot believe the silly man didn't want to help his in-law because of some past silly stories. He had to pity Mrs. Tonia and helped her case as he used to admire her when she hadn't married Mr. Joshua."Hello," Mr. Collins stands outside the h
The Cold CEO's Woman CHAPTER 130: New babies
Liam stares downward, not wanting to meet Mrs. Tonia's angry gaze, as he suspects she knows about the night he made love to Anita, but probably doesn't know who exactly slept with her.Was that why Anita left? What's really going on? he wonders."Actually, ma'am, I heard from her friend that she's going through a lot, and I don't know if I can help, but perhaps that will make her return.""Help with what? Just leave!" Mrs. Tonia shuts her door on Liam, not giving him a chance to speak.Did Anita's boss force himself on her? Mrs. Tonia wonders as she walks back to her parlor.Staring at the man, she sees him as a calm person with good moral upbringing, but is he the one that slept with her daughter and also bit and sucked on Anita's neck?If only Anita had told her the truth before she left, she wouldn't be rude to him, but she cannot help it. She behaves rudely because she misses her daughter so much.Liam leaves the building and walks back to his car.He knows her mother suspects him
