Over two months ago, Karen made a tough decision after receiving a text message,

"You can change your mind if you want because my help isn't for free." Without hesitation, she replied, ‘It’s worth the risk.’ The moment she entered that Maybach, she knew there was no turning back.

Roger would never love her, so there was no need to crave his love when his heart belonged to another.

“Are you sure about this?” The man who had introduced himself to her hours ago as Van asked her. She took a deep breath and nodded.

“Yeah, it’s not worth it. Let me know your conditions.”

With no other words spoken, Van stepped on the accelerator. “Where are you taking me?” She was slightly nervous, but if this man wanted to hurt her, he would have done so already.

Besides, he was the reason she was still alive. Just a little delay and she would have died from suffocation when the pillow was pressed against her nose, and for that, she owed him a lot

“To somewhere Roger will never find you,” he retorted. Kare

  • 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

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 27 – I will never forget your kindness

    Karen stiffened in his arms. Indeed, all she had been doing was self-pity. It was time to rise from the ashes and build something for herself. She didn’t care about her parents’ wealth or attention.Tonia could have it all, but let no man envy or try to take what she builds for herself. Pulling away, she stared at him with genuine gratitude. “Thank you, Van.”How she wished to have someone like him as a father? “Why don’t you adopt me?” She asked suddenly, Van’s brows raised. “You? No way.”Disappointment sat in her eyes, but if only she knew the reason for Van’s refusal to adopt her, then she would be happy.“How good are your hacking skills? I'll cook while you set up." He got up from the couch, leaving her to pick up the pieces of herself.Karen's brows raised as she quickly wiped her tears. "You can cook?" She couldn't because that was done by their housekeeper.She never even saw her mother cook, and most of the t

  • Divorce Denied! The CEO Wants Me Now   Chapter 26 – A new home

    Karen’s knuckles turned white from clenching them so hard. Reflecting on it, Roger’s abuse was primarily emotional because he couldn’t move on from Tonia, leaving a wound in her heart.Whenever Tonia was mentioned, his mood would shift, and at times, he would say hurtful things, only to act as if nothing had occurred afterward.Who could tolerate such a toxic man? “No, I don’t,” she responded, but Van chuckled. “Then I suppose you’re not prepared for my assistance.” If she didn’t love Roger anymore, she wouldn’t be so eager to distance herself from him.There were numerous ways she could have retaliated against Roger, but she chose to depart quietly. Her face paled at his words. How could he know that she still harbored feelings for Roger?“Fine, it’s not my fault that my heart still longs for a man who loves another woman. I can’t move on as long as I’m living under the same roof as him.”“Now you’re speaking my language,” Van nodded, and Karen breathed a sigh of relief. “Does this m
