LUCAS.

Of all things, I didn’t expect Richard to look for Elias’s replacement.

Did he really think we were that dumb?

“Richard, what are you saying? I was wondering who this young man was. How is he your son?” Dad asked, his eyes wide in shock.

I glanced at the man that Richard had brought to the villa to introduce to us. Quite alright, he had dark brown hair like Richard, and they resembled each other to some extent.

So, it was easy for him to fool Dad. Not me.

I hadn’t gotten any news from my investigations, but I knew for a fact that this strange man was an impostor.

Richard suddenly broke into sobs, looking at Dad. “I had promised to tell you guys something after the wedding. I recently found out that Elias wasn’t my biological son.”

I arched an eyebrow. My brother should have taken a career in acting. I bet he would win many Oscars.

Olivia joined her overly dramatic husband and broke into sobs. She sniffled before saying, “There was a time Elias was beaten badly in jail, so

  • Caught In The CEO's Sweet Trap   Chapter 168~ Thirty years ago

    LUCAS. “We found the midwife who attended to Olivia thirty years ago,” Caspian said on the phone, making my eyebrows furrow. "She's the only one who's alive. She had been hiding, but it wasn't hard to locate her."The investigation team had been working relentlessly on finding evidence about what happened thirty years ago. A few days had passed since we sent out a few private investigators to the remote locations where the suspects were supposedly sent back then. Luckily, they managed to find something.“Has she talked?” I asked. “No… All she’s saying is that Olivia was pregnant and she gave birth to a baby boy. She’s sticking to that story, man. It’s not like my men can force her to talk without hurting her. And we can't torture women.”I clenched my fists. “I want to meet her.” “I doubt she will be changing her testimony. Whoever paid her must have given her a hefty amount.” “I still want to meet her. Perhaps if she meets a Hart, she won’t be tight-lipped any more.” I glanced a

    RICHARD.“Mr Hart, I really hope you have something good for us this time. Your son, Elias, has been a huge disappointment,” Zhang Wei, one of the shareholders who used to back me up, said. I clenched my hands into fists, my anger towards Elias increasing. He had really messed things up for me.A ripple of murmurs echoed through the conference room at the hotel. I was impressed. Zhang Wei had managed to gather almost half of the most influential shareholders and investors in the Hart Group. They were seated around the oval table in the conference room, and the scent of bourbon filled the air as they drank and waited for me to speak. Beside me, Damon stood tall, dressed in one of the tailor-made suits I’d bought for him. He looked smart, looking like a future CEO. I forced a smile, glancing at Zhang Wei before turning to look at everyone. “There’s no need to worry about that, gentlemen. Thank you all for sparing some of your precious time to meet me today.” “Well, Zhang Wei did sp

    CARLA. I blinked. My heart raced like a galloping horse. Was I dreaming?Caspian was kissing me… It all happened so fast… I usually said whatever was on my mind when drunk, but I didn’t expect him to kiss me on his own. Electric currents coursed through me as he kissed my lips fervently. What did this mean?Was this his response to my kiss?I clutched his shirt and kissed him back, my stomach fluttering with butterflies. The kiss was so good… he kissed me like he was trying to embed me into his soul… like I actually meant something to him. I wasn’t sure before, but now I was. I had fallen for Caspian... hard. I let my guard down and relished the kiss… the feel of his lips, his musky manly scent, his strong arms and the way I felt safe when he held me. After what felt like eternity but was only a few minutes, Caspian pulled back, his blue eyes staring into my hazel ones. “Let me take you home. You’ve had too much to drink,” he whispered before helping me up. My face burned. W

    CASPIAN. “Oh, I just got a call. I’m sorry, I need to go. I’ll call you,” Carla said without looking at me. She grabbed her bag and walked out of the lounge faster than a rocket. I felt Alice’s glare on me, making my jaw tick. “What is it?”“Jerk!” She hissed. “And why are you calling your brother a jerk?” I asked, looking at her. “Did you have to be so cold to her?” “I was just being myself.” Alice scoffed and grabbed her bag. “I’m leaving. Oh, and I’ve changed my mind about escorting you as you meet your fiancée tomorrow. I’m against this marriage. You’re so cold. The poor lady will just suffer in your hands.”I sighed when she left me alone, running a hand through my hair. It’s not like I wanted to get married anyway. I had always known my future. Dad and Mom always made sure I knew that I would marry a woman of their choosing. And that was why, although I had flings here and there, I never got attached to anyone. What was the point when the future Mrs Gray wasn’t a choi

    SOPHIA. “Someone’s glowing,” Carla said after our morning meeting with the directors.My leave was finally over, and I returned to work after spending my weekend indoors at the villa with Lucas. I looked at the files on the table, my mind flitting to our honeymoon. I had enjoyed myself, and already couldn't wait to go on a trip again. “You look happy,” Carla added. “I’m glad you found your happiness. Sometimes we go through certain things for a better future.” We sat in the conference room after everyone had left, taking tea and snacks during our short break after the meeting.I sighed, thinking back to the past. “The only thing that’s missing is my parents’ presence. If I hadn’t been so hellbent on marrying Elias, perhaps they wouldn’t have died. But… there’s no point in crying over spilt milk. I just hope they can rest in peace now. I got back control of the company and had their murderers locked up. I'm sure their souls are at rest now.”“You’re a strong woman, Sophia. I admire

  • Caught In The CEO's Sweet Trap   Chapter 163~ An imposter

    LUCAS.I didn’t say anything, simply looking at the rehearsed play unfold. Richard was really going all out to make sure I didn’t get half of the Hart empire.I scoffed internally. As expected, his apology was fake. He didn’t want us to get along. He was just paving the way for him to introduce another fake Hart to the family. Regardless, my brother’s hatred for me never bothered me anymore. Dad, my wife, children and friends… Those were enough. I didn’t need a family that lied and stabbed you in the back when you’re not looking. I would have gladly left the Hart Group for him since I had built my own legacy from scratch. But it was too much of him targeting me when I did nothing wrong to him. I was going to show him that I wasn't one to be trifled with. After all, I had a family to protect now. “It’s ok, father. We can wait until everyone is willing to accept me into the family,” Damon said, turning to me again with a huge grin. “I’ve always wanted an uncle. I hope we can be clo
