Too Late To Love Me, Mr CEO.
He chose his inheritance over their love. She kept his daughter a secret.
Five years ago, Thea Brown walked away from the only man she had ever loved.
Myles Grosky was her future—until he chose his powerful family and the inheritance waiting for him over their relationship. Heartbroken, Thea left without looking back, carrying a secret he never knew: she was pregnant with his child.
Now she's back for revenge.
No longer the woman who begged for love, Thea is a successful businesswoman, co-founder of a rising investment empire, and devoted mother to five-year-old Kitty.
Myles is haunted by the choice he made — and he vows to reclaim everything he lost. But winning Thea back won't be easy.
Myles is engaged to Celeste, a woman determined to become his wife. His mother, Augusta Grosky, is even more determined to keep Thea out of their lives.
As old wounds reopen and hidden truths come to light, Thea must decide whether to destroy the family that broke her heart—or trust the man who once chose everything but her.

Chapter: 006. The Ultimatum.Thea's POVI stood in front of the full-length mirror, getting ready for work. I wore an ivory camisole, then buttoned my tailored navy blue suit, which accentuated my hourglass figure. Then I added pearl earrings to match. I let my black hair fall long and wavy, loose against my shoulders.“CEO mode. Ready to go.“ I said to my reflection, picking my bag from the large bed.Suddenly the hotel phone rang."Ms Brown, you have a guest.""Who is it?" I frowned. I had no reservations at the hotel this morning."They insist on seeing you, ma'am, and they won't leave a name."My heart skipped a beat."Fine. I'll be downstairs in a minute."Part of me wished it was that person. Part of me also wished it wasn't.I descended the stairs and noticed someone waiting in the lobby. The person turned around. My pupils constricted.Silver bob. Black suit. Cold eyes.

Chapter: 005. Find her. Myles' POV The following day.My office door opened without a knock. The witch never knocked, not once in thirty-one years, as though the act itself would concede some power she wasn't willing to give."You could at least knock." My jaw ticked. "You could at least look pleased to see your mother." She said, crossing the office and settling into the chair across from my desk. "State what you here came for." I said, my voice icy. "Must I want something before I visit my only son?" She asked. I just stared at her. She continued, “Celeste called me this morning. She said she tried to video call you from London about delays with her Master's program, you didn't answer."“If that's why you're here this morning, please see yourself out.“ I returned to the file on my desk, not bothering to look up again.She was quiet for a moment. “Fine. But at least eat something. You've gotten really lean. Your cheekbones are practically cutting glass."Then something crossed my mind. I'd been meani

Chapter: 004. Startling resemblanceMyles' POVI shouldn't have come myself.I had four board members waiting on a call I'd muted twenty minutes ago, a driver idling in a loading zone that was going to cost me a fine I didn't care about, and somewhere behind me, my assistant was probably losing his mind watching the young master of Grosky Holdings wander a supermarket aisle like a common man.But it was Eva's birthday, and my twenty-six-year-old half-sister had exactly one soft spot she'd never grown out of. An imported chocolate bar wrapped in gold foil, the one our father used to bring home from his trips when we were kids.So here I was, CEO of a company worth more than this entire shopping district, hunting gold-wrapped chocolates.I turned into the confectionery aisle, scanning the shelves."That's the same one my mommy buys."I turned around. A little girl stood beside me, light brown hair slightly mussed as though she'd been running, a bag of sour gummy bears clutched to her chest like contraband.I froze."She

Chapter: 003. Five years later. Thea's POVFIVE YEARS LATER.I alighted from the plane, squinting as the sun's harsh glare hit my eyes. I automatically reached into my bag for my sunglasses, then stopped myself. Right. I left them on the vanity back home on purpose. I disliked them.I disliked the way those nose pads dug into my skin, the way they trapped heat, and smudged my brow makeup. I’d rather die than look like a cliché librarian in this vintage Prada trench coat. I pulled my luggage off the carousel and waited as a black car rolled up.The window wound down."Hey, beauty."Alonzo leaned out, winking at me. He was my business partner; co-founder of the firm we'd built from nothing, and the only man alive who could annoy me and make me laugh in the same breath. He had that permanently amused look, and a sharp jaw that darkened with stubble he never quite bothered to shave."You better hurry. My baby is waiting for me."I glared at him, hauling my luggage into the trunk before sliding into the passenger seat

Chapter: 002. The bet on his heart.Myles' POV"Thea!" I had run after her, but she was too far off to hear, already driving out of the gate. I sighed, pinching my nose bridge. What had I done?I slid into my car seat and slammed the door. Then I exhaled and closed my eyes.This was all because of a promise I made to my father when I was twelve. I had sworn to uphold it. I didn't think keeping that promise would cost me the most important person in my life.Suddenly, my phone vibrated and I dug it out of my pocket. It was my mom."Myles." "What is it?" I snapped. The sound of her voice alone tightened my chest."You may not see it now, but I'm doing this for your own good. Right now, Grosky Holdings needs your full attention and zero distractions—""Go straight to the point." I cut her off. "You need to follow through with the rest of our plan.""Your plan," I corrected her. "Don't dress it up as something we decided together.""Whatever. Just do it. Tonight, 8pm at The Meridian." She said. I clenched my jaw. "Fine.

Chapter: 001. Disappearing with the pregnancyThea's POV.“Oh my God!” The pregnancy test slipped from my fingers and clattered against the tiled bathroom floor.For a moment, I stared, unable to breathe. There were two red lines on the strip. Not one, but two freaking red lines!Fingers trembling, I picked it up again, pressing a hand over my mouth.I was pregnant with our baby. A cute, tiny little Myles. I lowered myself into the bath tub and cried tears of happiness.We had spent three years building a life together. Three years of loving each other. And eventually we were going to get married and have children.I smiled through my tears. I couldn't wait to tell him. I grabbed my phone and dialed. He picked on the second ring.“Are you busy?““A little. Why?" “Can you come home? I have something important to tell you.“ I spent the next one hour fixing my appearance, and making his favourite lunch. By the time I was done, the apartment smelled of the pasta I'd made, sunlight spilling over the plates and the two glasses of
