All Chapters of The CEO's "Little Man" : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

By the time they reached the top-notch, renowned hospital, true to his words, Maxwell was already waiting with two nurses holding a stretcher at the entrance. Before Gregory could even get to park the car properly, Maxwell had burst the car door open and pulled Isabella out of the car.He wasted no time in laying her down on the stretcher and didn't wait for the nurses as he himself wheeled her straight to the emergency room, where the doctors were already waiting for her, with a tearful Angelina in tow, anxiously pushing the stretcher from her side.As the doctors sent them out and locked the door behind them, the couple helplessly waited in the hallway, right outside the emergency room. While Maxwell just stood with his back against the wall, so still and emotionless like a statue, Angelina kept restlessly pacing up and down, crying profusely. She wasn't really a prayerful person but desperate times call for desperate measures and so after pacing for the umpteenth time, she bent dow

It was Christmas day and upon Angelina's insistence, they all went to a nearby church for service before returning to the mansion for the lavish feast she and Isabella had prepared for everyone as Alejandro had travelled to his home country. Since Nanna couldn't make it, their only guest for the celebration was Ethan. Angelina had wanted to invite Alicia and Jeremy as well but the couple already had plans to spend Christmas with the Logans.After finishing the scrumptious brunch and clearing the dishes, Ethan and Maxwell excused themselves, leaving the ladies busy taking selfies on their cell phones. They were both clad in the beautiful matching dresses they bought specifically for the Christmas celebration. It was Isabella's idea for them 'to twine together as mother and daughter' and so they bought the same mauve colored dresses and both of them looked divine in it.After a while, Isabella excused herself and when she returned, she signalled Angelina to follow her. Curious, Angelina

Maxwell was having another rough day at work. It was the day after Angelina's birthday and though it was Boxing day, he didn't stay behind to unwrap the Christmas gifts as he complained of work overload. However, upon reaching the company, trying as hard as he may, he just couldn't concentrate on his work at all. He just found himself thinking, should he? Should he make that leap of faith?These past few days, he has been seeing different sides of Angelina. Different sides that make her all the more attractive and totally irresistible to him.It was as if she was a woman covered in many layers and as gradually each one of them is uncovered, he gets to see a glimpse of the real woman hidden deep inside. He found himself pondering whether he indeed had been too hasty in passing a judgement over her. Because he found it hard to believe that someone who could do all that she has been doing for not just him and Isabella but everyone else she comes in contact with, can truly be just preten

Angelina stopped dead in her tracks. And with her hand still on the door knob, she turned her head to look at the teary-eyed Isabella who then closed the distance between them by running to her and hugging her tightly from behind. "D--don't go, M--Maa--ma! P-lease!"Overwhelmed with both the negative feelings Maxwell evoked in her and the joy of hearing Isabella calling her 'Maama' as well as speaking a full though short sentence for the very first time, Angelina broke into emotion-laden sobs as she turned around in Isabella's arms and wrapped her arms around her as well. Even though this came at the most inopportune time, she was quite happy and relieved that it had finally happened.After that incident that led to Isabella having a cardiac arrest, according to Lucy, she kept having recurrent nightmares. And sometimes during the daytime, she would just isolate herself, sitting quietly in one corner, lost in her own gloomy world. The wheels in Angelina's head had begun turning

Jeremy quickly stepped forward and gently pried Alicia's hands away from Maxwell's collar while coaxing her, "No, no, no darling, that's not the right way to handle any situation. Let's calm down and talk this over like adults, okay?"Alicia opened her mouth to speak but Maxwell beat her to it. "No Logan. Let her do whatever she wants to do to vent her anger. As long as she will tell me about my wife's whereabouts after that."Alicia opened her mouth to speak once again but this time around, it was her fiance who stopped her from speaking. He gently dragged her away from Maxwell's side and made her sit down on one of the wooden boxes containing her stuff. Then in a gentle tone, he addressed her. "Please darling, just sit down here and let me handle this, okay? You're not in the right frame of mind for this."Alicia huffed before glaring at Maxwell. However, she remained sitting, wordlessly obeying her fiance. Seeing that, Jeremy heaved a sigh of relief before turning to
