CEO Wants Me: Heiress Has Risen Again! Chapter 228
Rhea's Pov “That's right… The man who kidnapped us and the man whom they had captured looked quite similar. Could it be that they were related to each other?” I murmured. But then I shook my head, if we checked further, we would know what's happening. I carefully brought out everything in the box, coughing when a bit of dust from the bottom hit my nose. Alaric and I started checking it out one by one, trying not to miss anything. By the time we got to the end, my eyes were bloodshot and my throat was from trying to hold in my tears. “How… How could there be such evil people in this world?!” I screamed, slamming my hands on the table. Each and every one of the files here held information about the children that they had kidnapped and sold. They ranged from the age of eight years old till seventeen, the highest being the lookalike of the kidnapper. They also write down whom they were sold to and where they were taken to. “But here, it's blank. There's no name of the seller, along

Rhea’s Pov I took out the picture and gave it to Alaric, “Years ago, there was a case about human trafficking and how a few children escaped and came back to the country. The case was eventually closed due to some bribery and corruption but I was able to get these from one of the perpetrators.” “Rhea…” “I didn't injure myself to get this, don't worry.” I said before Alaric could scold me, “And Fiona was with me. Also, you always have someone follow me without me knowing, right? So I'm safe.” I smiled and Alaric scoffed. Marcus was shot in an artery and was still receiving therapy so he couldn't be my bodyguard for the time being. “So what did you find?” “Do you remember the drawing that was made that year and my descriptions?” I asked slowly, hoping he would remember. “Yes, I do.” “Then look closely into that photo.” I leaned over him and pointed at a teenager who looked to be maybe four years older than the rest of the children. He had a blank look on his face as they

Rhea's Pov I wrapped my legs around his waist, liking the way I fit snugly into his body, “It's not like I'm in a good mood. Just that, seeing your face suddenly makes everything I was thinking fly out of the window. You really have that ability and I should thank you for it. However…” I trailed off, leaning in closer, so close that our lips were almost touching, “I don't know if that's a good thing or if it's a bad thing.” Alaric pulled me even closer, his arms snaking around my waist and a finger slowly trailing down the arch of my back. I shivered slightly and he chuckled. “Why do you think it's a bad thing?” He questioned, eyes switching from my lips and back to my face. I pouted, “Well… If I'm thinking like this, who's to say other females aren't thinking like this too? You're too handsome and you smell nice, you can cook and clean too. You're a CEO, and very rich, there will be a lot of women who want to snatch you away from me. I was barely able to keep you.” “If

Rhea's Pov Fiona took the box carefully from my hands, cradling it against her chest as though it might shatter if she held it too tightly. Neither of us spoke as we walked out of the Laurent mansion, our footsteps echoing faintly in the quiet hallway. The moment we stepped outside, the air felt different but it was laced with an unshakable heaviness. The driver was already waiting, standing beside the car with a stiff, professional posture. He opened the door for us without a word. Fiona slid in first, placing the box gingerly on the seat between us, and I followed, pulling the door shut behind me.The car started and drove out of the estate with silence and tension so thick that I could even taste it. It was Fiona who finally broke it. She turned toward me, her brows furrowed in thought, her voice quieter than usual but edged with suspicion.“Do you think Mr Laurent is hiding something?” She asked, “Especially with his wife’s condition, it feels like there’s more to it than he’s t

Rhea's Pov Fiona gasped and crouched down immediately, shaking Mrs Laurent’s shoulder, “Mrs Laurent! Mrs Laurent, can you hear me?!”Mr Laurent was already at her side, his hands trembling as he checked her pulse. His face stayed grim, but there was no panic, only a heaviness that made my chest feel tight.“She’s alive.” He murmured, brushing damp hair away from her face, “This happens sometimes, she faints at random. It started a few weeks ago, after Ava got married. Doctors couldn’t find the cause, stress, trauma, they said, but it’s gotten worse lately.”I crouched beside him, my gaze still fixed on her pale features, “And you never thought that maybe it wasn’t just stress? That maybe whatever Coleman has been doing is connected to this?”His jaw tightened, “You think I haven’t wondered that? But every time she wakes up, she remembers nothing about what happened before she collapsed. It’s like her mind blocks it out entirely.”Fiona’s hand lingered on Mrs Laurent’s wrist, her brow

Rhea's Pov “What?! You killed his son?! How…!” If Coleman's son had died at their hands, that explains why he wanted Ava to marry him and why Mr Laurent couldn't refuse him. “I… I didn't do that personally, it wasn't until the boy had died that I was informed. However, there's no excuse as I was involved in it. The year Norman died, Coleman made a lot of trouble but no matter what, he wasn't able to bring us to justice because like they say, money make the world go round. So he laid low. We all thought he had finally accepted his fate, until the first woman disappeared.” “What first woman? His first wife?” “Yes. Isabella Roarke. He had gotten married to her using blackmail in 2006. But at that time, we had no idea that he was Coleman Truce, we merely thought he was someone who caught a wind of what we had done and wanted to use it against us. Our business was still building from the money we had shared from the trafficking. I told them I wasn't interested in doing it anymore and I
