The next day when Elaine entered the office and barely settled on her seat, Rivan, the PA of the CEO made an appearance there.

"Elaine, sir is expecting you with your team." With his words delivered, Rivan was about to leave but Elaine stopped him, "Rivan, what is happening?"

She had met with the CEO very few times because he only called heads of departments in his office and no other employees. If he called for them, then it meant something unusual was waiting for them.

He was polite but very rigid at times. The staff generally got scared of the way he talked. Because he talked in a very serious tone and that tone explicated that whatever he said or ordered was an ultimatum and it wasn't going to be changed anyway.

Rivan replied, "I am not sure. Be quick, okay?"

Elaine turned to the other members of the marketing department and spoke up, "Well, as you all heard already, Sir is calling. Let's go."

Jenny, one of her team members was already beside her as she uttered in a whisper,

  • Chasing My Replaced Bride   Epilogue

    Two Years LaterThe rays of sun flickered through the curtains, warmth glided over her skin, drawing Elaine out of sleep land. She squinted her eyes to block the sun from directly hitting her irises. Grunting, she turned over, her hand searching for Cannon, keeping eyes still shut.Knitting her brows, she opened her eyes only to the other half of the bed to be empty.Confused as she sat up. Where did he go this early in the morning! Elaine thought for a moment only to remember Cannon was out of town for a meeting.Well, he would be back today. Elaine thought to herself as she pulled herself out of the warmth of the comforter. She took a glance at the time which was seven past thirty in the morning already.I slept this long! Groaning, she was about to rush to see if Ryan was awake but then she had to make her way to the washroom first as a sudden and intense urge to throw up rose up to her throat.Leaning over the toilet, she cleared her stomach of the remaining of the last night's di

    Though Cannon planned just to drop Elaine and Ryan at home and leave for the office from there itself, Ryan asked him to lift him in his arms and took him to his nursery first. Smiling at him, Cannon did as he was asked but they stopped at the entrance as Ryan called aloud, "Uncle Aiden?"Following his gaze, Cannon and Elaine found Aiden sitting in the living room. Aiden smiled seeing Ryan as he stood up but his smile faded away when he caught the sight of Elaine staring at him.Ryan said to Cannon to settle him down and as soon as he was down, he ran to Aiden. Getting near, he spoke up, "You came to meet me?"Aiden nodded at him with a little bit of smile but his eyes were all teary at the words of Ryan. It was clear from his voice he was happy with him though Aiden couldn’t get why.He was never that fond of children that much but something in Ryan was compelling him to feel otherwise. Getting the similar gesture from Ryan wasn't something, he was expecting though. Ryan held his ha

    Hina held it within until she couldn't anymore. She kept the fork down and spoke up, trying to look all normal, "I am done. Elaine, I should head back to the boutique now. You don't need to go back, go home from here."She took a glance at Sam who didn't seem to care anyway and was keeping himself busy with his food. Before Elaine could say something, Hina was already walking away.Ryan would have shouted if he wasn't busy with his ice cream.Cannon frowned, "What happened to her all of a sudden?"Elaine also seemed to be equally confused and turned to Sam. Before she could throw any question to Sam, his phone rang off. Taking the call, Sam answered in a calm voice, "Okay. We are on our way." and then turned to Cannon, "We have a meeting in an hour."Cannon nodded at him and they finished their lunch. Paying the bill as Cannon walked ahead with Ryan in his arms, Elaine turned to Sam, "Sam, what's going on?"Sam turned to her being confused but one look at her and Sam knew what she was

    Keeping Elaine's head gently on the pillow, careful not to disturb her sleep, Cannon stared at her peacefully sleeping face for a while and then kissed her forehead.With a blissful smile, Cannon got down from the bed and pulled the comforter properly on her.After getting freshen up, he walked out of his room. His gaze caught the sight of Hina and Cassandra downstairs. Thinking Ryan was still sleeping, he made his way to the guest room to check on him.As he thought, Ryan was still sleeping, flat on his stomach, his one hand was tightly holding the plush toy. Just when he tried to tuck his leg under the blanket, Ryan stirred in his sleep and opened his eyes widely.He turned and when his eyes fell on Cannon, he smiled at him, "Dad?"Cannon smiled as well as he answered, "Good morning, baby."Ryan just smiled at him and the next thing, his eyes searched for his Mom all around the room but not finding her beside his bed like always, his smile faded away. He again turned to Cannon, "Mom

    It was getting late at night but Elaine and Cannon were all awake holding each other quite tightly. Both of them knew if they really got to have some sleep, it would have been a peaceful sleep of their life like never before but sleep remained far away from their eyes no matter how tired they were after spending a hectic day. When Elaine felt there was no sleep tonight and Cannon wasn't going to say anything either, she thought of asking the question that terrified her that time. She wasn't sure if she would like his response, she had to clarify it. She uttered in a lower voice, "Cannon?" Cannon replied softly, "Hmm?" "Did yo..you really take me as Evana that night?" Elaine hesitantly voiced out as she got mentally preparing herself for his answer. It didn't take much time for Cannon to understand what Elaine was talking about but he was confused about how did Evana get into their conversation! Cannon uttered honestly, "I was drugged, Elaine. I still couldn't remember tha

Too much for his excitement, Cannon made his nursery in one of the room there, like it was in his penthouse.He wanted to build it by himself like before but Elaine didn't let him to do it seeing his struggle to set the screw properly. In between, he took one hit of the hammer on his hand and the next thing, he was pulled away from all of it.Elaine said in a calm tone, "Get healed first. You can make him things later." leaving no place for him to say otherwise.Giving it a thought, Cannon along with Elaine took Ryan out and let him choose his crib, rocking chair, lights and so many of moon and star things as per his demands.Mary was there at Cannon's place for almost all the time.
