The Heirs' Passionate Desire Chapter 10 Reunion
“Ms. Evelyn, are you alright?” Rena asked, noticing Evelyn’s pale face and distracted expression as they continued their office tour. “If you’re tired, we can finish the tour tomorrow.”Snapping out of her thoughts, Evelyn forced a smile. “I’m fine, Rena. Thanks for your help back in the elevator.”Rena returned the smile. “No problem. I could tell the CEO’s question made you uncomfortable.”Rena couldn’t help but wonder why Adam had shown any interest in Evelyn. He never made small talk with anyone except top executives or important clients. So why start a conversation about perfume with a new employee?‘Rich people are just strange,’ Rena concluded, brushing it off.As they walked, Evelyn couldn’t shake Adam’s words from her mind. It bothered her so much that she finally asked, “What kind of person is our CEO?”Rena chuckled li
The Heirs' Passionate Desire Chapter 1 Madness
"Urgh..." A soft groan escaped the lips of a young woman as she slowly sat up in bed.A sharp throbbing in her head made her wince as she scanned the unfamiliar room, her heart racing at the sight of her strange surroundings.Nothing felt familiar, and the pounding of her heart only grew stronger.Her eyes quickly darted around until they froze in shock, landing on a man—completely naked—lying beside her. And not just any man. His chiseled body, sculpted with perfect muscles, was enough to make any woman weak at the knees.Her breath hitched, and she quickly averted her eyes, only to realize her own shocking state.‘Sh*t!’ she cursed in her mind as she noticed that she, too, was completely naked.Before she could fully process the situation, the buzzing of her phone on the nightstand caught her attention. She snatched it up and saw countless missed calls and unread messages from her younger sister, Rebecca.[Evelyn! Where are you?! You need to come home now! Dad is furious!]All the m

“How could I enter the wrong room?!” Evelyn screamed internally, panic rising in her chest.She had just made a colossal mistake for the most ridiculous reason!Quickly, she turned on her heel, ready to flee from the scene, praying no one would ever find out—especially not her fiancé.But fate had other plans.“Evelyn?”Just as she was about to bolt, she froze at the sound of a familiar voice.A tall, handsome man stood before her, his face a mix of confusion and pain. His gaze shifted from the hotel room door numbered 1010 to Evelyn, who stood disheveled in front of him.“Andre…” Evelyn’s voice cracked as she spoke his name.Andre Sterling, the only heir to the richest business family in New Santerra, was her fiancé—arranged, but still a man who truly loved her. And Evelyn loved him too.His eyes fell upon the reddish marks scattered across her neck and chest, stark against her skin where the collar of her dress had slipped just a bit. A wave of anger and disbelief crashed over him.

The sound of a loud slap echoed in the Collins family living room. "You shameless girl!" a middle-aged man shouted, his emotions boiling over.Evelyn stood frozen, still shocked from the blow she received just after stepping through the front door."Where were you last night, huh? Who were you with?!" Richard's fierce gaze pierced through her. The dark circles under his eyes showed he hadn't slept well.Evelyn bit her lip, unsure of how to respond. “I was—” she started, clenching her fists.A girl with a pretty face hurried to hold her father's hand. She looked at Evelyn with concern. “Dad! Don’t be too harsh with Evelyn! Let her explain first!”“Be quiet, Rebecca! How can I calm down when your sister was acting like a prostitute last night?!” Richard yelled, filled with rage. He then held up his phone, displaying a video for Rebecca and Evelyn. “Look at this!”The video showed a blurry figure of a man entering room 1010. Shortly after, a girl in a tight red dress followed him inside,
The Heirs' Passionate Desire Chapter 4 Departure
“Get rid of the baby!” Richard said coldly in response to Evelyn's shocking news. “We’re having an abortion today!”Evelyn furrowed her brows at her father’s words. “But, Dad…” She glanced down at her stomach, gently rubbing it. “The baby isn’t at fault.”Richard raised an eyebrow. “So what?” He felt uneasy, sensing his daughter had a foolish idea. “The baby might not be to blame, but you are! Aborting the baby is the best way to fix your mistake!”Evelyn closed her eyes, knowing she could never be right in her father's eyes. She realized that her night with a stranger was her fault. Yet, after reflecting on everything for weeks, she became certain of one thing: someone had set her up.“I’ll take responsibility for my mistake, but not by getting rid of this baby,” she replied firmly, meeting her father's gaze. “I won’t abort it.”“Shut your damn mouth!” Richard slammed his hand on the table, unable to contain his anger. “You should know that despite the rumors flying around, I’ve conv

*4 years later*“Mom! Mom! I want that!” cried a little girl around four years old, pointing excitedly at a picture of ice cream outside a restaurant. Her big, round eyes sparkled with excitement, enhanced by her bright blue irises.Suddenly, a small hand grasped the girl’s hand to hold her back. “Lily, don’t bother Mom. We can buy it later, okay?” replied a calm boy who looked just like the girl. His steady demeanor made some onlookers think he was older than he appeared.Between the two adorable twins, a beautiful woman in elegant attire held their hands, smiling down at them. She knelt before her children and said, “Liam is so understanding,” she praised. Then, she turned to Lily, gently stroking her hair. “Just be patient, sweetheart. After we get to the apartment and unpack, I’ll take you to get ice cream, okay?”Lily looked a little downcast but nodded slowly. “Okay, Mom.”That response made the woman smile warmly. “Good girl.” She took both children’s hands again as they walked
The Heirs' Passionate Desire Chapter 6 The Meeting
‘This man!’As Evelyn stared at the man in front of her, she found herself at loss for words.It wasn’t just his intimidating gaze; it was also the bright blue eyes that she recognized all too well.“It’s okay,” Adam replied in a low voice that sent shivers down her spine, not waiting for her to finish her sentence.His voice made Evelyn's heart race. Despite trying to forget that night for years, memories of it haunted her. Her body recalled every touch from the man standing before her.Eight years had passed, yet Evelyn could never forget how he looked.Those piercing blue eyes, his thin lips, and the toned body that had once consumed her thoughts.Evelyn opened her mouth to say something, “You—”“Mr. Adam, we need to leave now,” another voice interrupted, pulling Adam’s attention away from her.“Julian, I’m just—”Realizing how close she was to making a mistake, Evelyn quickly said, “I’m sorry again. Excuse me.” She turned and hurried away.Adam was taken aback by her sudden rush,

Mr. Director has also said you’ll start working tomorrow,” said a man in his thirties, extending his hand toward Evelyn.Evelyn shook his hand firmly and slightly bowed her head. “Thank you, Mr. Harvey. I will do my best to meet your expectations,” she replied politely.Harvey, the HR manager and a friend of Anita, nodded. “Rena,” he called, and a young woman appeared beside him. “Please take Evelyn on a tour of the office so she feels comfortable tomorrow.”Rena greeted Evelyn warmly, knowing how hard it was to get a position like hers. “Hello, Ms. Evelyn. I’m Rena, from the HR department.” Evelyn smiled back and shook her hand.Seeing his job done, Harvey said, “I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll leave you now, Evelyn.”“Alright, thank you again,” Evelyn replied.Once Harvey was out of sight, Rena led Evelyn away for the tour. “Come with me, Ms. Evelyn.”The comp

The Heirs' Passionate Desire Chapter 9 His Attention
Hearing Adam’s words, Evelyn froze on the spot. Her heart raced, and her mind went into overdrive.How could he possibly remember her from a mere fragrance? She had been using the same perfume for years, but surely he couldn't recognize her just from that, could he?‘Is he a bloodhound?’ Evelyn cursed internally, nervously lifting her eyes to meet Adam’s intense blue gaze.“I-I’m sorry?” Evelyn squeaked, her voice betraying her fear. She tried to keep her composure, but Adam’s sharp stare left her rattled.Something about her reaction sparked interest in Adam. Her fear, her fragility—it made him curious, and maybe even a little amused. “Your perfume, I’ve smelled it before,” he repeated, narrowing his eyes. “Have we met?”Evelyn’s heart pounded. Did he know? Was he trying to corner her into confessing? Should she lie?“Hmm, hmm!” Rena, standing beside Evelyn, coughed—purposefully interrupting Adam. “That’s Rosa by Tous, a popular women’s perfume since ages ago, Mr. Adam.”Everyone’s a

“We’re late,” Julian muttered, checking his watch. “The interviews should be wrapped up by now.” His gaze shifted to the windshield, staring at the heavy traffic clogging the streets of New Santerra.“It’s fine,” replied the man beside him, Adam, his tone calm as he continued tapping on the laptop in his lap. “It’s just a small interview. HR can handle it. I’m not going to miss the chance of a contract with a top music label, am I?” His focus was clear.Fifteen minutes later, as they stepped into the lobby, Julian’s tablet dinged with a notification. He glanced at it and sighed. “HR just informed me that the interviews have concluded.”“Hmm,” Adam responded curtly, stepping into the elevator without breaking his stride. “Tell them to prepare a report on the candidates. I want it on my desk soon.” He didn’t pay any mind to the admiring glances cast his way by employees as they passed.“Who is that? A new celebrity?” one employee whispered. “He’s so handsome!”A senior employee quickly
