Being Mr CEO's Bride Chapter 112
William's POV My shoes clicked against the tiled floor as the men pushed me forward. Outwardly, I was calm, my expression unreadable. But inside, my mind burned with quiet fury. The room was a large hall. There were overhead bulbs that buzzed and flickered. At the centre of the hall, there was a long table weighed down with platters of food: roasted chicken, bowls of olives, slabs of bread, and red wine in crystal glass At the head of the table sat a man who looked every bit of an ex-convict.Diego Santos. He tore into a lamb leg like he had no other care in the world. The oil greased his lips and chin, but his eyes remained sharp, watchful as they locked on mine.“Ah,” Diego said as he lifted a wine glass in a toast, “The prodigal brother returns,”I did nothing. Said nothing. I did not bow or smile. I kept my shoulders square and voice flat as I spoke, “Diego,”He said, “Come. Sit. Eat.” He said, gesturing broadly as if he was welcoming an honoured guest to a family feast. “Th

William's POV As the car rolled out of Jessica's neighbourhood, I kept one hand pressed against the leather armrest, and the other was a fist against my knee. My thoughts spiralled. Kaelia Bennett.George's daughter.My niece. These words would not stop echoing in my head. For a long time, I had thought that every part of George was erased. But somehow, Jessica had managed to keep a piece of him alive. She had carried it, nurtured it, and raised it into the girl whom my son was now in love with.And Kaelia…I rubbed my thumb and index finger down the bridge of my nose, dragging in a sharp breath. She didn't look anything like him.She rather looked like a carbon copy of her mother. But there were pieces – tiny fragments – of George in her eyes. How had I not noticed until a few days ago?Her existence threatened everything I’d built.Another Montgomery heir. I leaned back into the seat and let out a low, humourless laugh, “George, you bastard. Even in death, you haunt me.”Th

Kaelia's POV Standing behind the door, my heart pounding in my chest, I listened to their conversation.They were not loud enough for me to hear everything that was being said. So I held on to the phrases I could catch. “…didn’t know you had a daughter,” I heard William say. His voice carried a mocking note. It was the kind of thing people use when they already know the answer.Mom's reply came, sharp and defensive, “Why would you know? So you could –” The rest of her words were swallowed by air, and no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't hear it. I shifted closer, and the door creaked as it moved forward a bit. I pressed myself against the wall, a pickle racing down my arms. I didn't know Mom knew William. I didn't even know she had any connection with the Montgomerys. She'd never mentioned it to me. What had brought him to our apartment? What were they talking about? Was it about Freddy? Was it about me? I thought about leaning forward to look at them again, but decid

William’s POV It had been years – no, decades, since I last saw Jessica. Yet as I stood in front of the faded door of her apartment, memories rushed back like welcome ghosts.I wondered what she looked like now. Then, she had long blonde hair that everyone admired, full lips, and a figure that was a showstopper.In fact, it was not hard to see the reason why George loved her so much. She was not the nicest girl out there. I guess her rudeness came with her being the prettiest. I lifted my hand and knocked, then realised that I could have just used the doorbell. For a moment, there was only silence. And just as I was about to turn away, I heard the sound of footsteps. Next was the sound of doors unlocking, and then the door swung open just enough to reveal her face. Time has obviously not been unkind to her. She looked just as beautiful as before.She was older now, though, with hair streaked with grey. But her eyes still carried that familiar defiance I remembered too well.Whe

Kaelia's POV It had been days since the unexpected apology video went viral. My mom and TJ had said it was a relief that the woman had realized her wrongdoing and come publicly to apologize. Maybe that would deter other people. But I saw the terror in her eyes and I knew she had not done that simply because she ‘realized her wrongdoing’.Moreso, I didn't believe that just because one person has apologised, it meant that other people would realise they were being terrible.The internet did not forgive. They just waited for another chance to strike.I could almost feel them – staring at me, judging me – already plotting what they'd do to me, what they'd say if they ever met me in the street. That morning, I sat in a full-length dress – as was my style these days – scrolling aimlessly through the comments on the video. No matter how hard or how many times I promised myself I would not look, I always went back scrolling.‘I don't know, guys, something about it gives the impression t

Demi’s POV The video played endlessly on repeat.The woman sitting behind a huge desk, looking scared as hell, spoke, her voice trembling as she tabled her apology.“I honestly didn't mean any harm. I was wrong for recording her, wrong for posting. I didn't know who she really was, and I regret the pain I caused.”With a glass of wine swirling lazily in my hand, I leaned back against the couch. My lips curved into a small smile. “Of course you regret it now,” I said, my eyes narrowing into slots. “Freddy must have scared the living shit out of you.”I paused the video at the exact moment when the woman bowed her head. Anyone who looked closely enough could tell that the fear in her eyes was not caused by guilt. It was terror.I suspected that Freddy had cornered her and threatened the shit out of her, and that's why she was making this apology.I laughed. It was amusing to see that he was still protecting her. Even after everything she had done, he was still protecting that little s
