All Chapters of Trapping the CEO: Chapter 21 - Chapter 29

GIAEVERYONE in the office was looking at me funny. Corbin's plan is now in motion. JL was walking with me and he knows the plan as well. The three of us discussed it yesterday.He held my hand and led me into the elevator. The disgusted look on some of the employees' faces is heartbreaking, but I have to stay strong. If we can prove that Kim is behind all of this, I will confront her and we will both undergo a DNA test. It is the only way to prove that her claims are false.Then maybe she can seek help. Mom helped Kim's mother, I can do the same for her.When JL and I were alone in the elevator, he kissed me on the forehead."Everything is going to be okay. Corbin sent someone named Precel. She will be your trainee so that no one suspects anything. All you have to say if someone asks is that I transferred her to you because there were no available positions in our company. Are we good?"I nodded. "I'm scared, JL."He hugged me and caressed my back. "It's going to be okay. I am here.

After everything that happened earlier, I just want to sleep so that when I wake up tomorrow, everything will be fine. There was food in the house, but it was just canned foods. Well, at least we're quick here. I fried corned beef while Cleo cooked rice."Do you think we can go out for a walk or something? No one knows we're here," I asked Cleo."I don't know. We can ask Brandon or Brent. I think it should be okay, but it's better to be cautious. I feel suffocated in this small house, and we can't even walk around in the yard," Cleo replied."Okay. I'll ask them after we eat."When the door opened, it wasn't the siblings who came in. It was a man I wasn't familiar with, and he had two other men with him. What's happening? Cleo quickly approached me."Gia, do you know them?" she whispered to me.I shook my head. "What's the password?"The man smiled. "I don't care about the password. You need to come with us if you want your husband to live."I knew that Corbin was with JL, so I knew h

JL"That is not love, Kim. Put the gun down," trembling, he held his hand while I sweated, afraid he might suddenly pull the trigger."What do you mean it's not love?!" He still aimed the gun at me. Sometimes it's about Emma. "I even killed for you! Isn't that love? I removed the obstacles for us to be together, isn't that love?" He turned to Emma. "You bitch! You even got involved with this man even though you knew he's already married? You're a curse! Like you think you can take JL away from me? I'm the only one for him. He loves me! Not you! Not you! I won't allow him to end up with you after all this." He laughed loudly as if he had lost his mind. "I'll kill you just like I did with Gia. You're a worthless woman! You slut! Ahh!"In a split second, Emma jumped and kicked Kim's hand. The gun flew somewhere."You animal! Let go of me!" Kim continued screaming.Emma twisted Kim's hand and took handcuffs from her pocket. She read her the Miranda warning while Kim struggled on the floor

CORBIN​Mr. Guerrero looked bored, but JL continued telling his story. "If you had nothing to do with her death, why was she outside that night and came from your house?""I already got home and getting ready for bed when she called me and said she left her purse. That was about an hour after dropping her off. So I went to check in the car and her wallet was there. I told her I would drop it off tomorrow as I was tired, but Collette insisted that she would get it in my place instead. She said it would be a hassle for me and she also wanted to return my handkerchief. She said she already washed and dried it. When she came to the lobby that night, I gave her the purse, but someone called her and she forgot to return my handkerchief. I didn't really care much for it so I didn't remember it either. That was the last time I saw her. I swear on my wife's life, I did not touch Collette. Your daughter is a wonderful woman, Mr. Guerrero and I respected her. Please, let's not fight tonight and

PHILIPPINES | ONE MONTH LATERI am currently in a meeting when I started feeling a pang of stomach acidity. I had a bagel with cream cheese and black coffee this morning. I tried to ignore it, but it kept coming back and reached my throat. It feels like heartburn even though I don't have that condition. As a result, I developed a headache and started sweating coldly."Excuse me, everyone. I'm just going to the washroom," I said to them.When I reached the bathroom, I tried to vomit but nothing came out. I wonder what I ate that caused this stomach discomfort. Last night, we had chopsuey and grilled pork chops for dinner. I can't think of anything bad that I ate.I better visit the doctor. I have a driver, so I don't need to take a taxi. I'll just bring Gaia and her nanny to the clinic. I'm not sure about picking up the kids because I might take longer at the doctor's office. I called my husband.After a few rings, he picked up."Hon, is everything okay?" he asked."I don't feel well s
