The question caught Roger off guard, and he staggered a little. His mouth was dry. Roger came here for comfort, but for the first time, he was being grilled by this woman who loved him so much.

Moving away from the comfort of her presence, he stared down through the glass window, seeing the bustling city of Manhattan below him.

Everything seemed so small compared to the storm brewing inside him. “I love Tonia, but she doesn’t want me.” Since Karen was a good replacement, he could make do with it.

“Because she thinks you are poor,” Molly hinted, her voice hitting a nerve. “Roger, you have to decide what you want before I can help you.”

Roger swallowed tightly, and his head bobbed before he turned away from the window, staring at the middle-aged woman who looked like someone in her early thirties.

She was exceptional, and he was proud to have her as a mother. “You are right. I will decide tomorrow, but I’m worried about Kitten.”<

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 36 – Karen’s request

    Roger was raised as a perfect child, making his parents proud. The moment he fell in love with Tonia, he wanted to give her the world because she was the only woman in his eyes.Little did he know that his obsession would destroy the right woman for him. The change in his demeanor was so drastic that for a moment, Molly thought he was pretending, but the doctor confirmed he was unwell.“First of all, you have to eat. Second, you have to clean up, and third, you must have a birthday party.”She organized parties for Delanie and Declan every year, but Roger never liked them. After the surprise one they organized on his eighteenth birthday, he made himself scarce during his subsequent birthdays.He’d take trips away just to avoid even a surprise birthday party.“Lani, can you get me soup?” Roger requested, at the same time his phone vibrated. He hadn’t paid attention to it since closing from work yesterday, and upon seeing the caller, his gaze darkened, and he dropped the phone.Delanie

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 35 – I will do anything

    A few days ago, Van returned from taking Karen to Dublin. He miraculously made it on time for the press conference, and everything went as planned.When Roger planted a tracker on him, Van received the signal but was not surprised. Roger would go to any extent to locate Karen.Van was relieved that Karen was safe and he didn't have to see her anytime soon.However, things took a different turn when he came home from work the next day. Delanie was sitting in the living room looking shattered, exhausted, and sorrowful.She didn't greet him with her usual signature smile and immediately addressed him."Dad, Roger hasn't eaten in two days," she said.Giovanni froze. Everything was fine yesterday, and Roger was at the office today. "He must have eaten at work. Let him be," he replied, half-worried. But Delanie insisted, "No, he hasn't, dad, and he doesn't want anyone in his room.""He'll eat when he's hungry," Giovanni casually replied, though he was internally disturbed.The next day, bei

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 34 – We have to go back

    A day ago, Karen made a huge mistake when she sent a message to her benefactor, Van. Though he hadn’t been in communication with her, he soon came to her aid as soon as he received her text message.‘This is urgent. I mistakenly sent a message to Roger. It was meant for you and he transferred me five billion.’Van, who was waiting for Roger to come out of the mall, immediately called Karen on the phone. “Pack up. I’m coming over.”As soon as he got down from the car, he saw a young man driving in and made him a deal. “I’ll pay double for your car.”The guy was confused, but the seriousness on the face of the middle-aged man made him agree. As soon as he handed over the keys and his account number, the money was transferred.Karen was waiting nervously when Van arrived, and without a word, he loaded her stuff into the boot of the car.“I’m so sorry,” Karen apologized, seeing from his attire that Van must have been busy these few days. He was usually casually dressed, but today, he wore

    Hands jammed together once again, followed by standing ovations, but this time, it wasn’t out of excitement but rather shock.“Can we have a word from the world’s mysterious CEO?” the reporter asked. Roger forced a smile. It was his turn to speak, and he did so rather lazily.“Thank you, Dad, and everyone present here today. I’m extremely grateful to my family and close relations for helping to make this possible. I hope that going forward, we shall all work together to move the company into greater heights, making it better for everyone than it is now.”The stunned audience overshadowed Roger’s words. They were too frozen looking at him than the words coming from his mouth. The guy looked young but exuded an unmatched authority, similar to that of his father.Even when he was done, they still could not get over it until Giovanni glared at the reporter. She smiled from embarrassment before proceeding with the report.Blood crept to her cheeks, turning them red. “You heard it yourselve

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 32 – The press conference

    On the other side, Roger was confused, about to ask who it was, but the monitoring device on his phone already located her. Karen Fletcher.Without hesitation, he transferred five billion dollars before dialing the number. It was answered on the first ring. "Karen, stay put, I'm on my way to you."Hastening out of the shop with the dress he purchased, Tonia ran after him.“Wait, was that my sister?” She asked, her face pale, but Roger gave her no response or attention and hurried to the car park.“Dad, please hold off on the press conference,” he was saying before noticing the car was empty. The engine was on, but there was no one in it.His fingers balled as he faintly guessed that his father must be on his way to Karen. His teeth gritted together. This time, he couldn’t let Karen escape him again. Roger had to act fast.Taking the driver's seat, he stepped on the accelerator, allowing the tracker to lead him to her.When he realized that all along, Karen had not been far, but closer

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 31 – Figure it out yourself

    Karen woke up the next morning, exhausted from a series of messages from a strange number. ‘Mavis, it’s Wade from last night. Are you alright? Who’s that guy? A sugar daddy?’Karen had a headache and before she could think of a response, another message dropped. ‘Can we meet up? I really want to see you.’‘Sure, but not today. I’m too busy,’ she replied drowsily, making a mental note to ask Van later for permission.‘Send your location. I’ll come visit,’ another message dropped, but Karen was being polite out of gratitude. He had saved her and was nice to her.‘I barely know you. Perhaps another time.’“Chatting with him?” Van’s voice rang, jolting her, and the phone dropped. This was the first time he entered her bedroom without knocking, and he looked upset.“He saved me,” she retorted in defense, and for some reason, Van didn’t want to dig deeper.He already got everything he needed about Wade, and it was better to keep him as far away from Karen as possible.“It’s time for your ne
