SOPHIA.

“What if we sign an alliance with Savvy-Tech? Will that make investors trust us?” The folds between my eyebrows creased as I glanced at Carla in confusion.

Why did she sound like we had already secured an alliance with Savvy-Tech? They had been unresponsive so far. I was even planning on choosing another tech company to partner with.

As expected, Daniel scoffed at Carla’s words.

“Yeah, right. Even Elias, the heir of the Hart group, couldn’t manage to get through to Savvy-Tech. How can you do it?” He mocked. “It doesn’t matter if you get rid of Elias Hart or not. Today, we will have to appoint another CEO. I won’t believe that you two managed to contact Savvy-Tech, let alone make them sign a contract with the company.”

I internally rolled my eyes.

Anyone could tell what Daniel’s agenda was. He was eying the CEO position.

Poor Elias didn’t even know that he was being used. Once he was out of the picture, his so-called backer didn’t even care.

To each his own, after all.

  • Caught In The CEO's Sweet Trap   Chapter 137~ Who sent you?

    SOPHIA. The culprit met my eyes, and his eyes widened in shock. His face turned pale like he had seen a ghost, terror flashing through his eyes. Well, he did stab me earlier, so it was strange to see me standing before him, completely unharmed. "Y-You... H-How are you still alive? I clearly killed you! I stabbed you multiple times just like I was instructed!" He shrieked, his words making me clench my fists. "Those wounds should have killed you. How are you still ok?""Who sent you?" I questioned through gritted teeth. "Who tried to kill my unborn babies?" He stabbed me too many times that I could still replay the moment in my mind. What if I hadn't been wearing the protective vest? I would have died a horrible and painful death. These people were too cruel. The thought of my unborn triplets' lives being taken before they even had a chance to live made my blood boil. How evil could someone be to go as far as trying to kill a pregnant woman? I couldn't help but wonder... were th

    SOPHIA. Earlier today, Lucas made me wear a vest. It was a bit heavy and uncomfortable; however, no matter how much I complained, he didn’t let me have my way this time. “Please endure it, love. Just for now and until we deal with Arelli. I can’t seem to shake off the bad feeling I have,” he said. "To be honest, I would rather you stay home and chat with Dad. But since you want to go to work, I won't stop you from doing what you want to do."I sighed, looking at the vest I was wearing. It made me look fatter than I already was, but it didn’t seem strange since I had already gained some weight due to the multiple pregnancy I was carrying. It was only at this moment that I realised why Lucas made me wear this vest before I left the villa today. I was lying on the ground, expecting to feel pain and bleed to death. But as I lay on the ground with a hand over my stomach, I realized there was no pain or bleeding. I just felt intense pressure from the sheer force of the stabs I had recei

    LUCAS. I sat across from Caspian in my office, my eyebrows furrowed as we discussed our next course of action.He had come to see me the next day, narrating how he had received a threatening message just after he sent Carla off the previous night. It seemed we were facing a formidable foe. They seemed to know everything about us, and yet, we had no idea who they were. Which was very dangerous for all of us. At first, I suspected Richard. I mean, he even went as far as adopting a child and lying about it just to make sure he got the majority of the Hart's legacy. So, I thought he was the one who killed my mother, and was now targeting everyone around me to stop me from finding out. However, he wasn't smart enough to pull that off by himself. There was someone who was playing with us, and I wasn't going to rest until I found them and made them pay. Caspian had just told me how Carla was now being used to make him stop digging into my mother's murder case. As it turned out, he was be

    CASPIAN. I sat across from Carla, wondering what the hell I was doing here. When Lucas called earlier, he asked me to take the guys to have dinner, but when I heard Carla was there, a certain part of me that I couldn’t fathom actually didn’t want to call the other guys. So, I kept the news of the free dinner to myself and came over here. I glanced at Carla as she ate her food. Now that we were here, something occurred to me. Why did I not want to tell the other guys to come over? Could it be that I wanted to be alone with her?My heart skipped a beat. No way… why would I want that? I knew better than to indulge myself in…“So, what happened to your family? How long have you been by yourself?” I suddenly asked, and Carla visibly stilled. Her eyes slightly widened, and I had a sudden thought that I had asked something that I shouldn’t. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t–”“I don’t remember,” Carla replied, glancing at me. “I just woke up one day and found myself in an orphanage. I don’t kn

    CARLA. ##FLASHBACK TO THE KIDNAPPING INCIDENT##Everything happened so fast. One moment, Sophia and I were looking at cute baby clothes, picturing how the triplets would look in them, and the next, a tall figure was standing behind Sophia, and I saw her lose consciousness. "Ah-"I barely managed to get a scream out before a long needle was injected into the side of my neck, and the world spun before I lost consciousness as well. I seemed to have a dream, but I didn’t know what it was about. Maybe my childhood, I wasn’t sure. There was a fire, and I stood in the middle of it, crying for my mother. "Mommy? Where are you? I'm scared!" I cried out, but my little voice was swallowed by the huge flames. The heat was intense, everything around me was engulfed in flames, and I was so scared, it felt like I was right there, experiencing the traumatising ordeal. I clenched my fists, trying to escape, but I failed, my legs feeling like they were made of lead. Why couldn’t I get away from t

    CARLA. The chilly breeze brushed against my skin. I shivered, hugging myself as I watched Sophia and Lucas’s car drive away. A smile crossed my lips.It was good to see how far Sophia had come. From being in a horrible marriage, to finding true love with a man who cherished her and treated her like a Queen. Would I find my own Mr Right someday? In the past, I had concentrated on building my career, and my only dating experience was in college, which ended badly due to my busy schedule. A sigh escaped my lips, and I brushed those thoughts away. This was not the time to think of relationships. I got into my car and asked my driver to head to the address that Lucas gave me. Since they had offered, it was going to be rude to refuse. Besides, there was no harm in having a free dinner. Although I was a CEO and quite comfortable, I still preferred to stay alone. I didn’t have a housekeeper, but a cleaning company came in to clean my apartment every day for two hours. So I mostly cooke
