Bound by the CEO: Torn by Lies Can I Become His Father?
Not long after Tracy left, Geraldine entered, holding a cleaning rag. “Hi, boss,” she greeted warmly. If Raymond had thought Tracy’s outfit was too revealing, he had been mistaken. When he looked at Geraldine, all he saw was an exposed woman standing before him. The short gown she wore barely covered her flawless thighs, her long, wavy hair was tied in a ponytail, and worst of all, the dress was off-the-shoulder.Raymond tried to focus on the papers in front of him, but he couldn’t. “Don’t you girls have uniforms?” he snapped, startling Geraldine, who had her back to him while cleaning the TV.“What, boss?” she asked, her voice trembling slightly.Raymond softened his voice, sensing her fear. “Do you girls have uniforms?” he repeated.“Yes, sir. This is it,” she said, pointing at her dress. Raymond narrowed his eyes as he took in her appearance from head to toe.“This is your uniform?”“Yes, boss,” she confirmed.“This is unbelievable,” he muttered. “You know what? Just go change int

Eureka entered Mr. Mathews’ house, leaving the door open. “Mr. Mathews?” she called out. He didn’t respond. “Mr. Mathews, come down quickly,” she demanded, pacing back and forth in the living room. Mr. Mathews, who had been in the bathroom, stepped onto the balcony, shirtless, with a white towel wrapped around his waist.“Why are you shouting, Miss Bennett? Where are my housekeepers?” he asked.“Is that what you’re worried about now? Come down quickly.”“Give me a minute. Let me change,” he said, turning toward his room.“Don’t, please,” she stopped him. “You look just perfect like that.” Her eyes flickered to the door as Raymond’s car rolled into the compound. She gestured for him to hurry.“What’s the problem?” Mr. Mathews asked as he stepped into the living room.“Just be ready for a punch,” she whispered, pressing her lips to his. “Don’t fight back,” she added before kissing him again. Mr. Mathews didn’t bother asking who was about to punch him. He just kissed her back, his hands

“This is not a threat, Mr. Luke Donald, it’s just advice,” Eureka said. She sat opposite Raymond’s attorney in his office, her eyes boring into his. “What do you say? Should I go ahead and try?”“What has come over you, Miss Bennett?” Mr. Luke snapped. “You have no right to come into my office and ask me not to defend my client. With all due respect, leave.”“I’ll pay you double whatever you’ll earn from Raymond’s case if you don’t defend him. Or I could show the judge what I have on you if you insist on taking the case. Which do you prefer?” she asked, leaning back in her chair.Mr. Luke’s voice softened. “What do you have on me?”“You don’t need to see it. I’ll just show it to the judge and your family. That’s all,” she said.“What do you want from me, Miss Bennett?”“Now you’re talking. I want you to take a break. Go on vacation until Raymond’s case is over. That’s all.”“I can’t leave now. I have too much to do.”“I won’t waste time convincing you

Today was Raymond’s final court hearing after two trials. Geraldine and Deborah, who were recognized as eyewitnesses, claimed that Raymond had been hitting and forcing himself on them since they started working for him. They said he had threatened to hurt their families if they spoke out. Unfortunately, their colleague died during one of his malicious acts. As if that wasn’t enough, his former housekeepers also appeared as witnesses, claiming they had to flee to save their lives.Raymond didn’t bother to object to their accusations. His eyes remained fixed on Eureka, knowing she was behind everything. His charges included rape, infliction of pain, murder, and drug dealing. Packs of coke were found in his pants, and it was confirmed that on the night Tracy died, Raymond had drugged himself.Finally, he was sentenced to life. As the police officers led him away, Eureka hurried to block them. “I need to speak to him for a minute, please,” she begged.“Come to the station,” one of the off

Kaiden stepped out of his room, his headphones plugged in. He closed the door and headed out, only to come across Desmond. “Where are you going?” Desmond asked. “This house isn’t a prison, is it?” Kaiden retorted, walking past him. “Don’t tell me you’re going back to that street,” Desmond said, following him. “I wasn’t planning on telling you, was I?” They reached the living room. “We’re going back to Beverly Hills tomorrow. You need to get ready,” Desmond said. “You can go. I’ll join you when I want to,” Kaiden replied, heading out. “What’s that even supposed to mean?” Desmond blocked his path, making Kaiden tilt his head. “We came here together. What do you want me to tell your mom?” “Simple. Tell her I’m spending more time with your mom. Or rather, that I’m loving my stay in NYC,” Kaiden shrugged. “Can I go now, please?” “No, you can’t. It’s almost sunset. Go get ready. We leave for Beverly early in the morning,” Desmond declared, refusing to move. “You’re g

“What are you talking about, Kaiden? You shouldn’t have left your mom’s house. How could you do such a thing?” Kailani asked. “What else was I supposed to do?” he replied. “I know you’ve experienced loss before, but I haven’t, okay? I don’t know how to handle my emotions. Losing you felt like a nightmare.” She cupped his face with one hand, smiling. “I missed you,” she whispered, then pulled her hand away. “I was in a coma for two weeks after the accident. My memories returned a week later. I wanted to see you, to let you know I was okay, but on second thought, I felt it was better to leave you alone. I was the only thing standing between you and your sister, and that wasn’t right. I saw how much your mom wanted you two to be together, so I thought staying away was the best choice. Besides, Alicia’s mom has been so kind to me. She saved my life, and I don’t know any other way to repay her. The least I can do is stay and do whatever she needs me to,” she explained. “I’ve been coming

Kaiden was stepping out of his room as early as 6:20 AM to get a glass of water when a soft knock came at the door. He checked the time, his forehead creasing. “Who would be at someone else’s house at this time?” he muttered. The knock persisted, and he had to open the door. “Who is it?” he asked, pulling it open. “Mom?” Without a word, Eureka pulled him into a hug, her eyes watering. “I missed you so much, son. I’m sorry for everything that happened. I promise to keep my temper in check,” she assured him. Kaiden pulled away to meet her gaze. “It’s okay, Mom. I shouldn’t have overreacted. I was just hurt,” he admitted. “How did you get here so early? It took us over five hours to get here by flight.” Eureka shrugged, stepping inside. “I know how long it takes, so I left Beverly last night,” she explained. “You did?” Kaiden asked in surprise. “But you didn’t have to.” “It was necessary. Where are Desmond and his mom?” she asked, sinking onto the couch. “I think they’re still asl

Kailani left with Kaiden, Eureka, and Desmond the following day. Desmond sat beside Eureka on the plane, while Kailani sat next to Kaiden by the window. She kept staring outside, memories of traveling with her father flooding her mind. She had been younger then, but she remembered everything as if it had happened yesterday. Kaiden leaned forward and whispered, “Are you mad at me?” She turned to face him, making him pull away. “For what reason?” she asked. “You haven’t said a word to me since we boarded. If you’re not mad, then what’s wrong?” “I’m not mad. I’m just thinking about Alicia and her mom,” she lied. “I’m going to miss them, you know?” “More than you’d miss me if I left without you?” he asked, raising a brow. “I don’t even know what this is anymore, Kaiden,” she said. “It’s been a while since I had to deal with someone hating my presence, and now I’ll have to go through that again.” “And who hates your presence?” he asked, tilting his head. “Never mind.

Kailani withdrew her hand from Kaiden's, stumbled back, turned, and took to her heels.“Hey, wait!" Kaiden rushed after her. “What's wrong, Kayla? You need to stop."Kailani didn’t stop. She ran as fast as her trembling legs could take her, pushing past people and crashing into their shopping carts.“Sorry," Kaiden apologized to the shoppers. “Wait up, Kayla!"Kailani stumbled upon a staircase, falling to the floor with a soft thud. That didn’t stop her. She swallowed the pain, scrambled to her feet, and tried to dash off when Kaiden grabbed her hand."Let me go!” she cried, tears rolling down her cheeks."Stop, Kayla. You need to relax,” Kaiden said gently."I want to go home, please,” she sobbed."Fine, let's go,” Kaiden agreed, leading her out of the mall."What's wrong? Where are your shopping bags?” Raymond asked as the twins reached the parking lot."Just drive and stop asking silly questions,” Kaiden snapped, opening the door for Kailani. She quickly got in and buckled up. Raym

Eureka sat by Kailani's side on the bed after she regained consciousness. The therapist had to leave, advising Eureka to make the girl see reasons why she needed her service. Eureka promised to try."I'm sorry, Mom," Kailani apologized, her voice quiet."About what, honey? You did nothing wrong," Eureka said warmly.Kailani glanced at her, her eyes beaming with tears. "Mom, can I tell…you something?" she asked, her voice shaky."Always, sweetheart. I'm all ears."Kailani swallowed a lump, the ugly torture she was subjected to flashing through her mind. "When I was…with those people," she paused, watching Eureka's concerned expression. Kailani scanned the room, shifting closer to her mother as her hands began trembling."Relax…you're safe with me now," Eureka assured her, draping an arm around her shoulders and pulling her closer. "I'm here for you.""Mom, the principal…at my school connived with…with that…there was a woman, she was wicked to me," she stuttered, her body trembling slig

Kaiden walked into the room after leaving to get some snacks for Kailani, but she had already fallen asleep. He sat on the edge of the bed, his soft eyes trailing her from head to toe, then he held her hand, squeezing it gently.“I knew something was off when that bitch entered the class on that ugly day," he thought. “The energy felt different. She had your voice, your face, but she didn't have your heart. I wish I had pointed that out, I wish I could have looked her in the face and told her she was not my Kayla. How could I? She bloody had your face and there was no way you would be two in the world with striking resemblance,” he paused as she stirred. He patted her arm gently and she relaxed again.“I'm deeply sorry, Kayla. The second time you need me and I wasn't able to help you. Even Mom couldn't. We all couldn't, probably because we didn't know evil exists to that extent. You'll heal perfectly, okay?” he said with a warm smile appearing on his face.

“You said she would be fine, doc. What the hell is wrong with my daughter now? Why is she so scared? What does she see?” Eureka asked as she barged into the doctor's office.“You need to relax, Miss Bennett. Please have a seat," the doctor said calmly. Eureka hesitated before sitting down.“Your daughter is traumatized. She must have experienced some ugly events that are causing her reaction. You need to understand that it takes time for her to get over that scene. That’s why I suggest she starts seeing a psychotherapist,” the doctor explained."Are you saying that my daughter has a mental disability? She spoke just fine to us, then all of a sudden she started reacting strangely.”"Your daughter is emotionally affected. Psychotherapy doesn’t mean she’s crazy. I can assure you that with her medication and therapy, she will be fine in due time. You just have to be patient with her, and make her feel safe again," he stated.Eureka took a dee

Eureka entered the doctor's office, gently closing the door behind her. “You asked to see me, doc. What's the condition of my daughter?" she asked, sinking into the visitor's chair opposite the doctor.The doctor sighed, closing the folder he was holding. “What I'm about to tell you is temporary, so relax, Miss Bennett," he said."I'm calm, doctor. Just assure me my daughter will be fine,” Eureka stated softly."Your daughter was diagnosed with Chlamydia.”"I don't even know what that means.”"It's a type of sexually transmitted disease, Miss Bennett,” the doctor said.Eureka's heart caught in her throat as she shifted forward on the chair, her stomach churning. "What…what are you saying?" she stuttered, her voice trembling.“We discovered signs of sexual abuse on your daughter. She had injuries around her genitals, bruises on her thighs and wrists. Trust me, Chlamydia is treatable,” he explained.Tears rolled down Eureka's cheeks. "You're saying that my daughter suffered sexual abuse

“Kayla?” Kaiden muttered, his voice barely above a whisper. He dropped on his knees in her front, cupping her face, his hands trembling. “Kayla, can you hear me? It's Kaiden," he said, then untied her. He checked her pulse, listened to her heartbeat, but heard nothing. Silence. The kind that paralysis someone with fear. Her body? She was cold; eerily cold. “Kayla, I'm here now, okay? I came to take you home. Are you listening? You have to say something to me. You have to get angry, to scold me, to tell me how disappointed you are. I should have protected you as I promised but I failed again. I'm sure you'll forgive me, so say something, please,” he begged, tears filling his eyes as he stared into her closed eyes."Kaiden?” Raymond called, barging into the room. He staggered closer, freezing on his spot."What's happening, Mr. Raymond? Why is she not responding to me?" Kaiden asked, his tone filled with sorrow as tears slipped out of his eyes.Raymond took a deep breath, composing him

"Slow down, goddamn it!" Kaiden yelled, his grip on the handle tightening as Raymond sped through the street. "I thought you enjoy speedy rides like this." Raymond smirked, not yielding to his request. "Says who?" "Says your passion, Jackie Chan," Raymond teased, a smug smile appearing on his face as he slowed down slightly, then pulled up in front of a mini bungalow. Kaiden stepped down, leaning against the car, catching his breath. "You see why I'll never like you?" Kaiden groaned, relaxing. "I only thought of treating my son to what he likes. Sorry if I made you fear," Raymond apologized, locking the car door. "Fear? You wish," Kaiden scoffed. "Where is this place?" he demanded. "Kaiden..." Raymond walked to Kaiden's side, meeting his serious eyes. "We're here to rescue your sister, that's if we haven't missed our chances yet. My candid advice is for you to follow my steps when we step into that house. They might be bad guys and I don't want to answer to your mom if y

Kaiden jumped back abruptly, landing on the hard floor with a thud as a black car swept past the spot he had stood just seconds earlier. Blood seeped from his elbow, which had been bruised by the rough marble floor. His head spun for a moment, his vision blurring. Hayley rushed forward, crouching beside him. “Kaiden, are you okay?” she asked, checking his arm. Kaiden regained himself, leaped to his feet, and pulled his hand away from her just as his driver ran over. "Don't touch me!” he snapped, startling Hayley, who trembled a bit. "Go inside!” "What did I do? Why are you mad at me?” Hayley asked, her voice shaking. "I said go inside! Don’t you listen?” he yelled, and she quickly rushed inside, locking the gate. “Are you fine?" Kaiden's driver asked. “Isn’t it obvious?" Kaiden retorted, walking back to the road. “Did you get the plate number? What car was it?" he asked as they crossed the road, this time looking carefully. “It’s a black Chevrolet, but I couldn’t get t

Kaiden stood along the street, leaning against his car, waiting. He stamped his foot on the ground, his attention shifting from his phone to the house before him. His driver stood nearby, patiently waiting on Kaiden. They had been there for over an hour, yet nothing. Kaiden said nothing, just staring at a certain house, while his driver, choiceless, didn't utter a word either.Kaiden straightened from the car, relief washing over him as Hayley stepped out of the gate across the street. She looked left and right before crossing over to him. "Hi, Kaiden,” she greeted, a broad smile plastered on her face. "It took you ages to come out,” he hissed, opening the car door for her. "I'm not entering. Do you want to kidnap me?” He hesitated. "There are better people to kidnap out there. What would someone do with you?” he sneered. “Are you entering or not?” "I wish I could punch you… so hard!" she groaned, entering th
