Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 59: A CRAZY PLAN
Inside the cramped dressing room reeking of cheap nightclub makeup, Edna stood frozen before a tabloid magazine published just this morning. On the front page was a photo of Aiden Power casually holding Alma’s hand, strolling down the avenue. Alma’s radiant smile under the sunlight, Aiden’s tender protectiveness in every gesture... all of it struck like fiery slaps directly against her current, broken appearance.Rip!Edna violently tore the page out, crushing it in her palm so hard her nails dug painful marks into her skin. She slammed it to the floor, her sharp stiletto heel furiously stomping over Alma’s face in the photograph."What gives you the right... What gives you the right to stand there while I have to be in this filthy place?!" Edna gritted her teeth, her voice hissed out through tight jaws, packed with resentment.She picked up a deep red lipstick, scribbling crisscrossing strokes over the ruined picture before tacking it firmly into the corner of the wall. The crazy rev
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 58: RETRIBUTION
Conal couldn’t remember how he had managed to drag himself home. He slid down onto the ice-cold tiled floor, his disheveled shirt soaked in sweat and clinging to his back. The room was pitch-black and dead silent, like a tomb.He stared blankly at the ceiling, his chest heaving wildly at the memory of Aiden’s cold, unyielding face. Every escape route had been blocked. The company he had built over the years had changed hands without him receiving a single cent. With trembling fingers swiping across his phone screen, he desperately tried calling familiar numbers, but was met only with long, hopeless dial tones or automated messages indicating he had been blocked."If you wish to sue, I am fully prepared to hand over the entire dossier of your embezzlement regarding Alma to the criminal court." Nolan’s stern warning still echoed in his ears, making him shudder uncontrollably. Going head-to-head with Aiden was synonymous with putting on a prison uniform with his own hands.Conal’s eyes w
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 57: SHOWDOWN OF CARDS
"You... you... how could you be...?" Edna stammered, her eyes bulging wide as if she had been caught red-handed on the spot."Why?" Alma strolled out of the adjacent breakroom, the silk hem of her dress swaying gently with every unhurried step. "I'm here to have lunch with my man."Alma intentionally lowered her voice on those last two words. Though she projected an air of haughty composure, her fingertips hidden behind her dress were clenched tightly in tension. Caught off guard by her sudden entry, Aiden froze for a brief beat, but soon enough, his lips curled into an amused smile, seamlessly falling into line with the script. Edna, meanwhile, stood utterly dazed."How is this possible... weren't you..." She still hadn't recovered from the shock, her voice choking in her throat."Weren't I supposed to run away abroad, wallowing in despair and hatred?" Alma smiled faintly. "So sorry to disappoint you. Instead of hiding in a room weeping hysterically, I'm right here chatting and laugh
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 56: KARMIC RETRIBUTION
Not stopping there, Edna added fuel to the fire upon seeing that Aiden’s expression still seemed unsatisfied: “What’s more, he approached Alma multiple times to insult and mock her.”"Edna... how could you do this? Have you gone mad? Do you even know what you're doing?" Conal snapped back to reality, shouting in utter shock."Don't blame me, Conal." Edna turned to look at him, her lips curling into a mocking sneer. "If anyone's to blame, it's you for being so incompetent that you backed yourself into a corner. You can barely take care of yourself, so how could you ever guarantee me a life of luxury and wealth?""I can!" Conal roared through choked sobs, his eyes blurred with tears of resentment and humiliation. "Didn't you say you were sacrificing everything for me? We made plans together!""You've lost everything! What guarantee could you possibly offer?" Edna shouted, callously erasing every memory between them. "Do you expect me to live a miserable life, hiding out with a dirt-poor
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 55: SHOWDOWN
The resounding thud against the table failed to startle Aiden in the slightest. Even as Conal lunged forward, his eyes venomous and bloodshot, Aiden remained entirely unbothered. He composedly savored the helpless thrashing of his prey."What is the meaning of this? I don't receive a single cent from this transfer?"After a suffocating minute of silence, Conal questioned loudly. The shock of the glaring 1 USD figure in the transfer value section of the contract stripped away his usual dignified facade."You know better than anyone," Aiden replied, his finger tapping lightly on the glass tabletop, "the reason why you aren't getting a single dime.""I don't know a damn thing!" Conal shouted, scrambling to salvage the last of his authority. "Aiden Power, don't drive a man into a corner. If I don't get a proper explanation today, don't even dream of me handing over Conal Logistics!"Conal pointed his finger straight at Aiden's face. Conversely, the chairman of Power Group did not care in
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 54: THE CURTAIN FALLS
A cold scent of cedarwood drifted through the crack of the bedroom door, waking Alma from a late sleep that had dragged on until past eight in the morning.The bedroom door swung open. Alma stepped out, her head still spinning slightly. She had assumed Aiden had left for the company early, so when she caught sight of his tall figure leisurely sitting on the living room sofa, her footsteps instinctively faltered."It's past eight o'clock. Why haven't you gone to work yet?" she asked curiously.Aiden set his coffee cup down on the stone table, the corners of his lips curling into a familiar, arrogant arc. Standing up, he threw on the crisply pressed suit jacket draped over the back of the chair. His deep, dark eyes locked onto her instead of giving a verbal answer."Now that you're awake, hurry up and eat breakfast."Throughout the meal, the familiar, suffocating silence enveloped them once more. Alma quietly kept her head down, clearing the dishes and putting them into the sink the mom
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 5: THE SURVIVAL GAME
Once again, the room fell into a bone-chilling silence. Just as Alma managed to catch enough breath to speak, Aiden—still with his back to her—spoke first, his cold voice cutting off any chance of her finding her words.“I’ve changed my mind.”Aiden turned around slowly. He brushed past her as if s
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 4: A SILENT PROPOSAL
The private office of the head of the Power Group on the 88th floor was submerged in a silence so heavy it felt suffocating. Aiden stood there, his tall silhouette obscuring the dying rays of the setting sun as they flickered against the floor-to-ceiling glass walls. After a long moment, he slowly
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 3: SUNLIGHT AMIDST THE CINDERS
Aiden averted his gaze from the blue signal on the dashboard and tossed his phone onto the oak desk in frustration. The dull thud echoed through the silent room, marking the final snapping point of his patience. He sank into the high-end leather chair, taking a deep breath to suppress the searing p
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 2: The Unexpected Variable
For the past week, New York had felt to Aiden like a chessboard where he was slowly losing his final pawns. He had been working relentlessly—not to close a trillion-dollar merger, but to hunt for a "worthy" woman. Someone to shoulder the heavy burden of bearing an heir to the Power Group empire bef
