The Cold Hearted CEO Wants Me Back!   The Confrontation (2)
Lucien pressed his lips together in a tight line while gazing directly into her eyes, which were blazing with fire. He tried to ignore the uncomfortable feeling inside his chest by taking a deep breath. Eleana, on the other hand, withdrew her heated gaze from him before looking away."Whether you believe it or not, it's the truth. Just like how your father killed my mother. Do you know she was fucking pregnant with your father's child?" Lucien stated this firmly before throwing the last question in Eleana's direction. It made Eleana look at him again."I know she was pregnant, but not with the father's child but with Lincoln's. Your mother was having an affair with Lincoln behind everyone's back. She was hired by Lincoln to keep an eye on my father. My father is innocent." Eleana explained somehow calmly. She didn't raise her voice anymore. On the other hand, Lucien clenched his teeth after hearing Eleana's words."That's not true. She didn't do anything like that. Lincoln never came
The Cold Hearted CEO Wants Me Back!   Eyes Could Be Deceiving
Lucien sighed while taking a few steps back. He didn't know what to say or how to explain. He didn't know how to make things right with her. His plan was all ruined. He could already see that in front of his eyes. The worst thing was that it was going to cost them both."I wouldn't have talked disrespectfully about your dad if he didn't kill my mother. He could have just let her go if he didn't want her. He didn't need to kill her." Lucien remarked while glancing back at Eleana. He ran his hands through his hair out of frustration. Eleana, on the other hand, clenched her teeth while balling her hands into fists. Every time he called her father a murderer, rage flooded through her like lava. It was all over her face."I think I had enough chat with you, Mr Bernard; I suggest you leave my office," Eleana ordered while unclenching her fists. Lucien shoved his hands in his pocket. He didn't say anything for a while and simply kept staring at her back."You are going in the wrong direction
The Cold Hearted CEO Wants Me Back!   She's Back
Eleana was currently at Savannah's apartment. She hadn't seen her in a month after her discharge from the hospital. That's because she was staying with Rylan, and two weeks after recovering, she flew overseas for her shooting. She just came back the previous day, and Eleana was already there to meet her."I can't believe you were gone for so long," Eleana whined while hugging Savannah. She chuckled before pulling apart."I missed you too, idiot." Savannah grinned while looking at Eleana. She then looked at her baby bump."Of course, you didn't." Eleana scoffed before crossing her arms over her chest. Savannah ignored her remarks with a roll of her eyes."Why isn't your belly bump showing yet? Are you starving my beloved niece?" Savannah asked with worry, pointing at Eleana's belly. Eleana slapped her hands away in irritation."That's because I'm only 15 weeks pregnant. I'm not starving your beloved niece. Oh, wait a minute—how do you know if it's a girl or a boy?" Eleana explained, an

Eleana decided to spend the night at Savannah's place. Since they had been apart for too long, Savannah was unwilling to part with her. So she decided to text Ayden and ask him not to come pick her up."I just texted Ayden and informed him that I'm staying over," Eleana said while rolling on the bed, holding her phone."Oh darn! Rylan was supposed to come over. I haven't told him about you. Let me call him." Savannah exclaimed while rushing to grab her phone."Okay, I will be in the washroom. I badly need to take a shower." Eleana hummed in response before getting up from the bed and then walking straight to Savannah's washroom, which was attached to her room."Alright, Your clothes are in the guest room. But you can use mine if you are too lazy." Savannah responded from behind while dialling Rylan's number.After Eleana entered the washroom, Savannah suddenly heard the doorbell ring, making her surprised. She let out a sigh and hoped it wasn't Rylan."Damn it. Why did he bother to co
The Cold Hearted CEO Wants Me Back!   Mood Swings
Eleana walked out of the guestroom after drying her hair completely. She was starving and in a pretty bad mood because of what happened earlier. Eleana had noticed the sudden changes in her. Her mood was continuously changing. She was getting angry and upset over small and petty things. It was all because of her pregnancy; she knew it.Sighing over her thoughts, she made her way directly into the kitchen. From the corner of her eyes, she noticed Ayden and Rylan sitting on the couch and playing some video games like children. They also got changed out of their previous clothes. Eleana couldn't help herself from rolling her eyes. Instead of trying to pacify her, he was busy playing some silly video games. It worsened her mood."Savvy! I told you I was hungry." Eleana whined in a childish voice while making her way into the kitchen, where Savannah was heating up something. Ayden looked over his shoulder after hearing Eleana's voice. She didn't glance at him as she walked towards the kitc
The Cold Hearted CEO Wants Me Back!   Disappointment
After dinner, they all gathered in the living room again to watch some movies together. Eleana sat beside Ayden and put her head on his shoulder comfortably. Ayden, on the other hand, had his arms wrapped around her. They played a romantic comedy movie on the screen. Rylan and Savannah also sat beside each other while hugging comfortably."I can't believe I'm watching these two being lovey-dovey all of a sudden when I spent my whole life watching them fight like dogs previously!" Eleana sighed as she pointed towards Rylan and Savannah, who were busy giving each other smoochies. Her tone was filled with playfulness. Ayden chuckled and then kissed her head."You will get used to it soon." He replied with an amused tone before glancing at Savannah and Rylan. Rylan smirked at him while Savannah rolled her eyes."Stop judging us, Eleana Astrea Davis." Savannah scoffed while snuggling closer to Rylan, who wrapped his arms around her back."I can't help it. Look at you two. You look like a p
The Cold Hearted CEO Wants Me Back!   Surprise
Eleana closed her eyes gently before taking a deep breath. The soft breeze touched her face lightly, making her shiver in delight. Her hair was flowing carelessly while covering her face. She used her hands to brush them off her face. When she opened her face again, she found Ayden's face next to hers, looking at her with a soft smile on her face. She smiled heartily at him."It feels so surreal," Eleana mumbled softly while tucking a strand of hair behind her back. She averted her eyes from Ayden to look at the serene scene in front of her. Currently, they were on a cruise ship, on their way to the island where Eleana wanted to go and plan Ayden's birthday.She still couldn't believe they were going there. Ayden woke her up in the morning and told her to be ready by noon. They would be catching the afternoon flight to the island. Eleana was over the moon when he informed her. He didn't want to upset her, and that's why he prepared for his meeting. He had joined them directly at the a
The Cold Hearted CEO Wants Me Back!   Surprise (2)
After reaching the Island and getting freshened up, Eleana excused herself from Ayden, leaving him with Rylan. She walked into the backside of the villa they would have been staying in with Savannah. She wanted to check everything before the actual surprise happened. There were a few adjustments she needed to make sure which was why she dragged Savannah with her. "Is everything arranged properly?" Eleana asked with excitement dripping from her voice. Savannah nodded with a grin."Yes, don't worry. Everything is in order. Just as you planned." Savannah replied before pushing the door open. When they entered through the door, Eleana felt her jaw almost drop to the floor after seeing how beautifully everything was arranged. The decoration was simple but perfect. Rylan really did an amazing job with the hotel staff."Wow! It's perfect." Eleana clasped her hands together like an excited child, making Savannah shake her head."I know, right." Savannah agreed while enjoying the view too. Th

Eleana slowly walked towards the long mirror planned in the centre of the room before standing in front of it. Her sapphire-blue eyes collided with her reflection in the mirror. She looked a little nervous. Eleana tried to swallow it down while glancing from top to bottom. She was dressed in a white mermaid wedding gown with a sweetheart-illusion neckline. The silhouette of the dress stayed fitted from the chest to her knees and then flared out the rest of the length to the floor, along with the long veil adorning the top of her elegant bun. Eleana could feel her heart palpating against her chest as she stared at herself. Her make-up was done elegantly, and her hair was put in a beautiful low bun. She was wearing a small diamond necklace, which her mother bought for her, along with matching earrings."You look beautiful, baby." Eleana heard her mother's soft voice behind her, making her turn around. She smiled at her mother and Kathleen."Thank you, Mama. You two look gorgeous." Elean
The Cold Hearted CEO Wants Me Back!   Baby
Eleana slowly opened her eyes before closing them again to adjust to the light. She felt like her whole body was on fire. She couldn't move at all because of the pain she was feeling in her lower body. She frowned while looking around the unfamiliar room and bed she was in. As she tried to remember what happened, her head began to hurt, making her let out a painful groan."You are awake. Don't move, Princess." Eleana heard Ayden's worried voice, making her turn around to face her. She visibly winched when she noticed his awful state. He looked absolutely awful with those dark circles and eye bags."What happened?" Eleana tried to get up while asking. Ayden was quick to react. He stopped her own time."Don't move." He warned her while gently pushing her down. Eleana frowned and was about to ask him more questions when her hand accidentally brushed her stomach, making her eyes widen in shock. Her stomach was flat."My baby!" Eleana exclaimed as flashbacks started to run through her head

"What rubbish are you talking about?" Giovanni gritted out while clenching his fists tightly. As he spoke, his facial expression changed, and he glanced at his father, who looked puzzled as well."You should know this better than me." Ayden chuckled while glancing at Lucien, who suddenly got up from his seat and then brought some documents out of nowhere. He then walked towards Leonardo and handed him all the files. Leonardo took the files with a nod before putting the documents in front of Antonio, who leaned forward and took one of the files before opening it."These are the proofs of what you, Luca, and Alessandro have been doing for years behind our backs." This time, Leonardo spoke up and then pulled out a remote from his pocket. He pressed a button, which made some piles of documents and photos flash on the screen one by one, making both Luca and Giovanni's eyes go wide in pure shock and terror. Antonio's face changed colour as the icy mask he had been putting on all along dropp

"What!" The three of them asked in unison. The rest of the family members were also shocked as they stared at Antonio in shock. The only people who were calm in the whole room were Eleana, Ayden, Lucien, and Leo. Eleana glanced at the man who sat quietly beside Antonio without much expression on his face."You guys heard me," Antonio responded coldly."How could you say that?" Giovanni couldn't contain his anger as she raised her voice at Antonio."Dad, are you out of your mind? This marriage is important for us. for our business. Everything's already done. The deals are signed. How can you just call off the marriage?" Luca roared at his father. He couldn't believe his impulsiveness. This old bastard was out of his mind."I see you two have already learned to raise your voice at me." Antonio chuckled while turning to look at Ayden. They exchanged a look before Ayden nodded and then pulled out a remote out of nowhere. He then pressed the remote, making the big black monitor light up. E
The Cold Hearted CEO Wants Me Back!   Urgent Family Meeting
Finally, the most anticipated day arrived. It was Andres and Idalia's wedding day. The ceremony was supposed to take place in the afternoon. Even though the whole villa was busy preparing for the wedding, the members of the family were quiet, except for the younger ones. For the past two days, the wedding preparation has been going on, yet there has been no wedding vibe at all. Ayden and Lucien had been really busy for the two days, and Eleana hadn't gotten a glimpse of Ayden since the day she informed him about the things she found out from Eirene. After that, he disappeared again with Leonardo and Lucien, leaving her puzzled. The only thing he informed her was that he had a few surprises for her, which she would get on the wedding day. He just recommended that she relax and enjoy herself. Eleana was really suspicious about his behaviour. He suddenly turned oddly secretive after he rescued Lucien, and after that, he had been spending a lot of time with Leonardo. Eleana had suspicions

After successfully putting ointments on her bruise and treating her, Eleana put away the first-aid box. A long silence filled the room as Eleana looked at her sister, who was biting her lips while looking down. "Are you feeling better now?" She finally asked, breaking the silence. Eirene looked up at her before slowly nodding her head. "Do you want to talk about it?" Eleana asked gently, giving her space and time. She didn't want to force or pressure her to talk. She wanted to comfort her first so that she could talk about it on her own. At first, Eirene didn't respond. But after a minute, she reached out her hand before grabbing Eleana's hand. "Who did this to you?" Eleana asked while holding Eirene's hand. She could see her visibly shaking after hearing the question. "Eirene. I need to know who did this to you. You don't need to be scared. I'm here to protect you. Ayden's also here. No one can hurt you or us. I promise I will make them all pay. Each and every single person who da

The next day, regardless of all the chaos that had taken place previously, the whole Santoro Villa began to prepare for the upcoming wedding. The wedding was supposed to take place within the next two days. Even though there was wedding preparation going on around, the people of the villa were quite calm. Eleana couldn't feel the wedding vibe at all. Eleana was more concerned about the plan Ayden was working on. He didn't tell her everything in detail. Just some vague answers left her confused. However, Ayden had requested that she trust him and sit back. He didn't want to drag her into the plan and stress her out because of her pregnancy. She's already in a crucial state.Even though Eleana wanted to engage herself, she had no choice but to obey him this time. She had already neglected her baby, and it almost harmed her. She couldn't let this happen again. She couldn't help but sigh as she walked through the corridor to go downstairs to find Eirene. The plan Ayden was working on alon

After storming out of Antonio's office, Eleana directly made her way toward her bedroom. She was shaking because of anger. How could he just say something like this? Eleana wanted to leave this house as soon as possible. She tried to take a deep breath to calm herself, but none of it worked."Eleana." She heard Ayden's voice calling her, which made her turn around instantly. Ayden heaved a sigh after seeing her state."Are you okay?" Ayden asked in a soft voice while walking towards her. Eleana looked at him before inhaling and exhaling deeply."How could he just demand something like that? How could he?" Eleana sounded bitter and emotional as she let out the question. Ayden reached her and then pulled her into a hug, making her wrap her arms around him slowly."It's alright. Please don't cry because of this." He pleaded while rubbing her back soothingly. Eleana let her tears flow while closing her eyes."I just can't help it, Ayden. I feel so disappointed and angry." Eleana mumbled i
The Cold Hearted CEO Wants Me Back!   Go Back
Eleana's eyes slowly travelled towards Lucien, who stood behind Ayden while looking lost in his thoughts. Eleana's eyes went wide in shock when she realized she had almost forgotten about his presence. He had a white bandage covering his forehead and arms."Lucien!" Eleana called out his name, grabbing his attention. She slowly separated herself from Ayden before rushing towards him. Lucien looked at her before passing her a weak smile. His whole body was covered with bruises here and there. Eleana's heart sank deeper as she noticed his state."How did this happen?" She cried out while rushing into his arms. Lucien carefully hugged her while wincing in pain when she accidentally brushed his injured arm."I'm so sorry, Lucien." Eleana cried while hugging him. Lucien chuckled before separating her from him."It's alright, Belle. I'm fine." He replied with a wide smile while trying to show her how strong he was. It only made Eleana's heart hurt more."You need to sit first. Come with me.
