Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 120- Meeting Their Grandfather
The elevator doors slid open, and Eve stepped out into the underground parking lot. The echo of her heels followed her as she walked, the board meeting still weighing on her mind. She spotted Perry near the car, speaking to an unfamiliar older man in a butler’s uniform—clearly the housekeeper sent to fetch them.So it was true.Their grandfather—the old patriarch, Charles Croft—wanted to see them. For the first time.Her pace slowed.They had no idea what to expect. No stories, no memories. Only silence and distance their whole lives. Now, out of nowhere, an invitation… or maybe a summons.Her phone buzzed in her hand.It was a message from Alex:“I’m home. I wish you were here with me.”Her steps faltered for half a second.Home.She stared at the screen, her heart twisting. That single line carried warmth and weight. And guilt, too. She could almost see him there—waiting in their quiet sanctuary.She took a deep breath, her fingers sliding toward the keyboard to reply—but another me
Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 119- The Different Version Of Ellie
The board meeting had been adjourned, and now Ellie was inside the luxurious office where Samuel had sat for many decades. The room suited Samuel's style—warm and cozy.Ellie stood by the window, arms crossed, her sharp blue suit making her look every bit the powerful woman the world now saw—but her eyes were clouded, far from composed.Roman entered after a brief knock, carrying a set of folders. “Madam, these are the reports and contracts requiring your signature,” he said, placing them on her desk.“Thank you, Roman,” she replied without turning around.He paused, sensing something more behind her tone.“Is there anything you need?” he asked politely.“I wanted to ask you about someone first,” she said, finally facing him. “Camilla Barlowe.”Roman’s expression didn’t shift, but he gave a slight nod. “Yes. I did some digging as you requested. Her name’s tied to Titanium Crest, but she’s been dormant for years—until now. On paper, she’s just an executive director. But I have a strong
Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 118- The Queen Is Back
At Cameron City’s airport...Alex stood beside Eve, his travel coat draped loosely over one arm while the other never let go of her hand. His private jet waited on the runway, engines humming low in the distance—ready to take him back to Summerville.But he wasn’t ready. Not for this parting. Not when everything still felt so fragile.“I hate this,” Alex murmured, his voice low as his intense gaze bore into hers. “I don’t want to leave. Not when things are like this.”Eve gave a faint, pained smile. “I know.”“Maybe I should reschedule my flight,” he said, almost to himself. “This project can wait—”“No, Alex,” she interrupted gently, reaching up to smooth the collar of his shirt. “You’ve worked so hard. You can’t drop everything because of me.”His jaw clenched. “But I want to.”She didn’t answer that.He exhaled heavily, then pulled her into his arms—tight, protective, reluctant to let go. His warmth surrounded her, and for a moment, she wished time would pause. Just for a little lo
Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 117- The Moment Of Choice
The air in the penthouse still hung heavy with the weight of Samuel’s will, but life—ruthless as always—offered no time to grieve.By noon the next day, the transition had already begun. The Croft Group released a formal statement, officially naming Ellie Carson as the new CEO. The announcement sent ripples through the business world—some were surprised, others skeptical, while many remembered the legacy Ellie and Samuel once built together.In the early years, she had stood beside him—his equal in vision and drive. Together, they built an empire. But after their separation, Ellie chose a quieter life, retreating from the spotlight, vowing never to return to the battlefield she once ruled.But things were different now.Samuel was gone. His dream and empire—was left behind without him.Ellie stood by the window of the penthouse, arms folded as she gazed over Cameron City’s skyline. The same city that once brought her pain now called her back with responsibility.“I’m doing this for yo

"To my beloved family, if you are reading this, then I am no longer with you. Though my time was cut short, I have done everything in my power to secure your future."Eve clenched her jaw, blinking rapidly to keep her emotions in check."Ellie, you have always been the woman I admired the most. Despite the years of separation, I never stopped loving you or believing that you were meant to stand beside me—as the brilliant woman who was once my equal in business. The Croft name needs you now more than ever. That is why I leave you seventy percent of all my company shares, including the estates and properties I owned. The company is yours to lead, should you choose to."A heavy silence settled over the room.Ellie’s face paled, her lips parting in shock. Seventy percent?Her fingers curled into tight fists on her lap. She had sworn off the corporate world years ago, vowing never to step foot into it again. Yet, Samuel had left her no choice.Perry looked up at his mother with wide eyes.
Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 115: Samuel's Last Will
The silence in the penthouse where they were staying in Cameron City was heavier than words.Eve sat by the window, staring blankly at the darkened skyline. She hadn’t spoken much since the burial, not since Freya’s cruel words had ripped apart the illusion she had unknowingly clung to. Alex had tried to talk to her, had tried to reach out, but she couldn't bring herself to respond.She wasn’t angry.Not truly.She understood why Alex had kept the truth from her—perhaps he thought he was protecting her, shielding her from pain.But the pain had come anyway.The ache in her chest was constant, a silent weight pressing down on her. No matter how much she tried to rationalize it, the fact remained—she couldn’t give him a child. She had spent nights dreaming of the family they would build together, picturing a future filled with laughter and the sound of small footsteps echoing through their home.But those dreams had been shattered.Now, every moment with Alex felt like walking on thin i
