The previous chapter was incomplete and though I've made the change, it's not showing on the app so I added it here. As soon as the changes begin to show, I'll delete it.

More chapters will be uploaded in a few hours but for now, please find the continuation of chapter 55 below, thank you.

Amusement overshadowed Roger. His identity was announced, but most people thought he was one of those CEOs who were skilled in organizing and making decisions. Roger could do the work himself without breaking a sweat.

“Don’t forget, Ryan, that I gave you a chance. The moment your position is occupied, you can’t come back.”

“I won’t,” he said confidently. Roger ended the call. If he could clear the folders on his desk, including the meetings, by midday, he could focus on the battle with Silent Chase.

It was already midday by the time he cleared his desk and ended his meetings, but Karen had not returned.

Worried, he checked her location and realized she was in the building. A sigh of relief escaped him, but another twenty minutes passed without her arrival. He checked the footage, his teeth grinding together, and his desk flew in the air, before falling with a thud.

The furniture was durable so it didn’t break but the noise scared Dahlia and she rushed to his office.

“Sir, what’s the matter?” She shivered from the icy aura emitted by Roger, but he stormed out of the office without a word. Someone in the RD-Group had a death wish, and he was going to help fulfill it for them.

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 147 – Mr. Dawson, get ready to be a dad (THE END)

    The different shades of orchids lined the aisle brought tears to Karen’s eyes, and the garden was filled with very important guests, all dressed formally.She thought orchids only existed in her garden but Roger ensured to make this day more memorable for her. The bouquet Delanie gave her was made of orchids as well.Karen knew what the occasion was and could not believe invitations had been sent out without her knowing. Roger was the most elegant she had ever seen him, with Hector as his best man.The white tuxedo fit the perfectly, like they were pulled out of an advertising magazine.The smile on Roger’s face was not only enchanting but also satisfying. So all this while, when Karen thought Roger was avoiding her, he was actually planning a surprise wedding for her.Shame covered her face as Dahlia appeared behind her and automatically became her maid of honor.“I hope you don’t mind me being your maid of honor? I hope to also walk the aisle one day,” she said honestly. Karen was st

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 146 – Karen’s Surprise

    Gracie was nervous, but Declan calmly explained it to her. “We have a daughter together. You don’t expect us to be dating, do you?”“Let’s wait a while. Your parents might take me for a gold digger. I want to climb the work ladder first.” Her position and incentives were all at the top level, but she wanted more.If she got married now, everyone would associate her next success with her husband and his family, which she didn’t want.Declan did not see the point in arguing, so he took out his phone and called his mother. “Mom, how is Deena?”“She’s such a good girl. She went to bed after her shower, and we did some shopping along the way. You should see her room.”Gracie was relieved to hear how her daughter was being pampered, but Declan was not surprised. “Thanks, Mom. Is Dad around?”“Yeah, he’s right here.”“Okay, Mom, Dad, I want to marry Gracie,” Declan declared, and the couple on the other end of the line were excited.“It’s such a relief, but have you found out her reason for l

    Gracie gave up. Even if she tried, her strength would not match his. Declan entered, and his gaze instantly landed on the portrait on the wall. It was a picture they took together in the arcade.Then there was a small portrait on the center table. Still his and Gracie’s picture. The apartment was sizeable, neat, and welcoming, but nothing of suspicion.Declan’s pictures dominated the apartment like he owned it, and Gracie felt ashamed. If she had known he was coming, she would have taken them down, but now, it was too late. “What do you want, Declan?” Irritation sat in her voice, and Declan’s attention shifted from the portraits as he stared at her, guilt welling up in his heart. “Why did you dump me?” It was obvious that Gracie didn’t have any man in her life, and he was now beginning to doubt that she left him because he was broke. “It doesn’t matter. We both moved on, and you already have Deena too.”Declan didn’t feel like he won and neither of them had moved on. The fact that

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 144 – Be Ready to Be Spoiled

    Jacob was nervous as Roger dragged him back to the table, forcing him to sit in an empty chair. Declan was impressed, glad to have his big brother stand up for him every time.“You should be glad this is a wedding, Jacob, but we could as well wait until it’s over,” Declan mentioned, Jacob’s expression twisted.“Excuse me, what are you talking about?”“I want the truth. You share no resemblance with Deena, so what exactly is going on?”Jacob went uncomfortably silent, so Declan decided to threaten him a little. “We can do this the easy way or the hard way, and trust me, we are going to investigate everything. If it turns out you are lying, there will be consequences.”Nervousness washed over Jacob. He loved Gracie and wanted so much to stand by everything, but how could he go against the Dawsons?“Why is it hard for you to believe her? She’s my wife, if that’s what you want to know.”“I don’t doubt that. I’m talking about Deena,” Declan clarified, though a part of him burned with jealo

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 143 – You do have a sharp tongue

    She remembered how Pearl was eliminated. As much as she loved Declan, his family was a no for her.“What nonsense, my child’s father is right here, and you want a DNA test on her?” She was looking at Jacob, hoping he would support her, but Roger’s piercing gaze made him feel uneasy.“Declan told us that you two slept together before, and oh, I’m sorry for mentioning it in front of your husband…” Giovanni was saying when Gracie cut in, her voice cracking.“My husband knows about my past with Declan, and yes, I took pills at that time because he didn’t seem ready. He was broke,” she said sarcastically. "I married my husband a month after our breakup and got pregnant a few months later. You can do the math.”Declan was staring at her in a way that made her feel naked, shamed, and afraid. He was usually quiet, but when they dated, she realized how talkative he could be.With him being quiet on the matter, she had no idea what was going through his mind.“If you are sure she isn’t his, the

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 142 – A Dawson trait

    Gracie decided to take her daughter along to the wedding instead of hiring a babysitter to save some cash. Life wasn’t a bed of roses, as bills squandered more than half of her income. Apartments in that area were pricey, just as living expenses. Taking care of a toddler shot up their living expenses, and when she was just about to get an Uber, Jacob arrived.“Need a ride?”“You are right on time, but where is your wife?” Gracie smiled and asked. Being a weekend, he expected Jacob to spend time with his family. He was her best friend, and though he supported her, she never wanted to take advantage of him.“Having a girls' time, so I feel lonely and thought I’d come crash at your place,” he pouted. Gracie giggled. Jacob had two girls and had been praying for a boy to find his place in the family.There were things his wife did together with the girls, calling it girls' time, which he wasn’t invited to.Sometimes, he’d stay and help with chores in the house, going to the gym at other t
