SOPHIA.

“Congratulations on your first win, Luca!” I said the moment he walked through the door. “You were so cool!”

He raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing on his lips.

“You watched the press conference?”

“Yes, I did. It was a chance to see Elias get defeated. It was satisfying to watch,” I replied, a huge grin on my face.

I found out through social media that a group of protestors were making trouble at the Hart group, so I kept up with the news to see how it would turn out.

For sure, Lucas didn’t disappoint.

The way he handled the protestors… the way he handled the press and him slapping his brother and Elias’s face with a hundred million dollar contract… I wish I had been there to witness the looks on their faces myself.

“This is just the beginning,” Lucas replied as he rolled his sleeves to his elbows. He looked at me, saying, “I hope you haven’t had dinner yet. I promised to cook for you.”

“No, I didn’t. And I’m starving,” I replied, rubbing my stomach.

“Then I better feed

  • Caught In The CEO's Sweet Trap   Chapter 200~ My man

    CARLA. I tried my best to stay away from Caspian. Made sure I didn’t open the door when he came knocking at my apartment. Made sure he couldn’t get in touch with me via phone. And I even went on a business trip just to avoid seeing him. I went through all that trouble, only to give in within a few seconds of his touch. Earlier, when I arrived at the auction, I met someone from my past. Brian Fletcher. We had dated for a while when I was in college, but that relationship couldn’t last. Firstly, my studies were my priority at that time. And secondly, back then, I was just an orphan with no strong background. So, Brian’s family disapproved of our relationship. It had been years since we broke up, and although I had seen him from afar during business seminars, this was the first time he had talked to me. He came to greet me and asked if he could be my plus one at the event, claiming to have lost his invitation at the last minute. I didn’t believe him, but I agreed anyway. When we

  • Caught In The CEO's Sweet Trap   Chapter 199~ Take care of you

    CASPIAN. A murmur rippled through the crowd, and Carla glanced up at the VIP section, her glare making me gulp. She was pissed… but I wasn’t about to lose to my rival who was trying to impress my girl.“Wow, I never expected the auction to have such a great start. Five million dollars going once…”Silence fell over the place. Brian was simply quiet, not making any move. He turned his head, looked up and smirked like he had gotten what he wanted. Bastard… he had been provoking me all this while. I doubt he even wanted to buy that collection. But I didn’t mind spending five million if it meant I could soften Carla’s heart. “Going twice…” the host announced. “And sold! Our anonymous bidder in the VIP section is the new owner of Queen Layla’s jewelry set. Congratulations!" A round of applause echoed in the hall, but my eyes were fixed on the woman who stopped looking up. She got to her feet and walked out, her face unreadable. I got to my feet, wanting to follow her. This was my ch

  • Caught In The CEO's Sweet Trap   Chapter 198~ Auction

    CASPIAN. “Mr Gray, the item you were looking for will be sold at today’s charity auction event,” my assistant, Mateo Williams, reported, stopping my chaotic train of thought. “I’ve confirmed with the organisers.” It had been a week since I’d heard from Carla. I went to her office, but I was told she had gone on a business trip. She still didn’t want to talk to me despite trying to get in touch with her using other means. I sent her emails, sent her texts on me-ssenger, called using strange numbers, but still, she ignored me. I had apologised to her via text for my mother’s behavior, but she still didn’t want to talk to me. I even sent an official apology letter to her email, but I got no response. For the first time in my life, I felt lost. My chest felt stuffy, my heart aching with the possibility of Carla not speaking to me forever. I understood why she was angry. I didn't clear up things with my parents before taking that step with her. And my mother had no right to treat he

  • Caught In The CEO's Sweet Trap   Chapter 197~ She left

    CASPIAN. I glared at my mother. God, I loved her, but she could be annoying sometimes. Why would she bring this strange woman into my house?“My dear, Elena. Caspian would never be with another woman. He only cares about you–”“Whoa, Mom, chill. Who said I care about her?” I asked, cutting her off. Marrying someone I didn't love was one thing, but pretending to care about her? That was just cruel. If I had gone through with this marriage, I would have let her know that I felt nothing towards her. No care, no love, no nothing. Luckily, I had decided not to marry someone I hardly knew. What if she turned into an ogre at night?Or what if she was a psycho like that woman who was after Lucas? Wouldn't want to wake up with a knife in my belly. And her calling my mother and manipulating her to bring her here were signs of huge red flags. If only my parents could see beyond family status... Mom frowned at me. “Caspian, Elena is your fiancée. You have to look after her, but instead, you ma

  • Caught In The CEO's Sweet Trap   Chapter 196~ Confused

    CASPIAN.I didn’t want Carla to dance with that bastard, Leo Monterobio. He was part of the Mafia, working as Marco Rossi’s second in command. A known womaniser and a very dangerous fellow. I didn't want him even an inch close to Carla. Just seeing him sit close to her had my blood boiling. I wanted to gouge his eyes out for staring at her like she was a piece of meat. I wanted to knock his teeth out for smiling at her like he was in a toothpaste ad. When he noticed her, I instantly regretted bringing her to such a place. What the hell was I thinking?However, I didn’t have a reason to stop Carla from mingling. After all, I was the one who told her to have fun. So I decided to let her do what she wanted… but I didn’t even last a minute. I couldn't...The thought of that bastard being alone with her didn't sit well with me. I quickly followed after them, searching for them through the crowd of horny dancing couples and when I finally found them, I instantly saw red. That bastard h

  • Caught In The CEO's Sweet Trap   Chapter 195~ Not meant to be

    CARLA. “What the fuck, Mom? Haven't you heard of knocking?” Caspian yelled, pulling the blanket over us. We were both naked. My heart raced, and my face burned. His mother just barged into the room, and it reeked of sex! Oh my god! I was so mortified. “You wanted me to knock so you could hide your mistress?” My embarrassment was cut short. A pang of pain shot through my heart at her words. Mistress? Caspian sat up, sighing heavily. “Will you give us some privacy, please? And Carla is not my mistress.” His mother scoffed. “What else is she if not a mistress? Doesn't she know you're about to get engaged?” My heart sank. And suddenly, I felt like the worst person in the world. I knew. I knew he was going to get engaged to someone with a similar background to his. I just wanted to live in the moment before he got committed to someone else. A part of me did hope he would choose me and forget about his arranged marriage… but he didn't seem to want to put a label on what happe
