last update Huling Na-update: 2025-06-27 00:13:59

Tonia was expecting someone, but Roger wasn't him, and his mere appearance was a turn-off for her. Who wears cheap sneakers and a one-dollar shirt and pants to see a girl in college?

Still, she felt slightly nervous. "Are you stalking me now?"

Roger swallowed tightly, and as he held her thin waist in his arms, it felt strange. Something was wrong with it, and the worst part was, he couldn't put a finger on it.

Whenever he held Karen like this, it felt just right, though he felt in his heart that she wasn't the one for him. "I'd never. I just want to make something clear. You mentioned we would have been together if not for the pregnancy. I hope you already know..."

Tonia broke from his suffocating embrace, her glare filled with disgust, her words interrupting his.

"You truly believe that shit? My parents were there, so I had to be polite." Roger's heart sank. He had experienced worse from her, but that confession kind of gave him hope. Unable to hide the pain in his voice, he question

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 33 – Roger has always been mine

    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

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 30 – I'm her daddy, so back off

    “You'll know when we get there, but first, you need to change your look." With just a phone call, a woman in her early thirties appeared to help her transform. She also gave Karen some makeup tips.Her long dark hair was curled, and a smokey eyeshadow made her almost unrecognizable. Despite her petite frame, her figure was now well-toned, and she looked extremely attractive, with the red lipstick making her lips stand out.However, the dress was a bit too short for Karen's liking. "It's so short. Can I wear some shorts underneath?""Do you know how to swim?" If she could wear a bikini to swim, then wearing short dresses should not be a problem, but Karen shook her head. "No."Her discomfort made Van agree, but luckily the shorts weren't visible. He made a mental note to teach her how to swim upon their return.Arriving at the club, it felt like Karen had been thrown into a river. She could hardly breathe."Why do people even come here?" The music was too loud, a stark contrast to her

    Karen hurried out of the room in shorts and a tank top, feeling a rush of nerves as she noticed the smile on Van's lips. "Not bad, my wife sent them to you," he remarked.His wife? Tonia would be thrilled in this outfit but Karen wasn’t comfortable. The source was the only reason she didn’t reject it. “Please thank her for me.” she replied, trying to hide her discomfort.Van picked up on her hesitation. "You don't seem to like it," he observed."It's more Tonia's style. I want to be different," Karen explained with a forced smile, relieved that Van didn't seem offended.Van nodded understandingly. "I get that. But if you want to make an impression in front of a board one day, you need to have a killer look to match your super brain."Karen knew she had to make sacrifices to achieve her goal of revenge, even if it meant compromising a bit of her personal style."This hacker is a tough one," she grumbled, to which Van just smiled. "You'll be dealing with him frequently."Karen's eyes li

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 28 – Not her style

    Karen showered and slept soundly after touring the house. Despite its small size, it boasted an ultra-modern gym and a swimming pool she hesitated to approach. The house had only one bedroom, but the bed was plush and inviting.A few hours later, she awoke and showered again, preparing for the day even though it was still dawn. When she entered the kitchen, she was surprised to find Van already there."Good morning, sleepyhead. You're up earlier than I expected," he greeted her."You're back." She embraced him quickly, and he smiled. "Yes, there's a lot to do because training needs to be done on an empty stomach.""Are you going to train me yourself?" She hoped he would, but he shook his head."Not yet," he replied. She was too weak for him, and he might accidentally injure her."For this week, I've arranged for a trainer. If you don't grasp the basics by then, you'll have to pay for the services. But if you do, the bill is on me
