Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 28- Accusing Eve as a thief
The couple headed home straight after Alex picked up Eve from the shopping mall. They arrived around four-thirty in the afternoon. It was still early. Alex decided to finish some pending paperwork in his study while waiting for dinner, dragging Evie along so she could keep him company while he worked.It was Saturday, and technically, he didn’t need to go to the office on weekends, but he had long been accustomed to working 24/7. However, now that Eve was with him, his schedule had been restructured as he wanted to spend more time with his wife.But today, he had no choice but to visit the company to handle urgent business. On top of that, he had three important conference meetings scheduled in the afternoon. His workload had increased significantly as his conglomerate continued to expand.He was human, after all, and naturally, he got tired too. But whenever he stole glances at his beautiful wife, he felt recharged. They had only known each other for days, yet he already found himse

Sunday Morning...Eve was pulled from her slumber when something hot and hard prodded against her belly. She blinked drowsily, adjusting to the morning light, only to realize that she was nestled in Alex’s warm embrace. Her head rested against his firm chest, and her body was tightly trapped in his arms. His cool, masculine scent surrounded her, lulling her into a sense of comfort.But that thing that persistently poked at her lower body started to irritate her as it had disturbed her sleep. Frowning, she groggily moved her free hand under the sheets, searching for the culprit. When she finally grasped it, she froze completely.Her sleepiness vanished in an instant.Her cheeks turned scarlet as she realized what she was holding.It was his big snake!Before she could react, a deep, husky chuckle rumbled above her head."You’re playing with fire, dear wife," Alex’s voice came out rough and teasing.Startled, Eve immediately tried to retract her hand, but Alex was faster. He caught it

Everyone in the living room kept their mouths shut when the lady of the house spoke in a powerful and commanding tone, well except for Alex."What kind of manners have you taught your daughter all these years? She's getting more out of hand day by day," Margaret harshly stated, throwing a look of displeasure at her son and daughter-in-law.Caroline felt as if she were being mocked underhandedly by the old woman. She was badly irked but still maintained her poise and grace."Alex rarely comes back to this house, yet this is how you welcome him and his wife? Our family has never been this impolite!"Margaret scolded them sternly. Nobody dared to make a sound."George, escort the young lady back to her room. She will be grounded for a month and is not allowed to leave. Let her reflect on her mistakes," Margaret instructed her personal butler in an authoritative voice.Eve silently twitched her face. That seemed a bit too much for a punishment. She honestly admired the fierceness of the e

"I'M REALLY curious how an uncouth woman like you successfully seduced a shrewd man like Alex."A while after their family dinner, Alex was summoned by his father to the study room, while Matthew's family had already left. Only Eve and Alex remained, as per the old lady's request for them to stay a little longer.Eve had been accompanying the elderly after lunch, but she excused herself for a moment and headed to the bathroom. She didn’t expect to be obstructed by someone in the hallway. Margaret had already introduced this woman to her earlier, and the old lady told her that Hailee and her parents were good friends of their family, which was why she wasn’t treated as an outsider in the house. She also didn’t hide the truth that they had chosen Hailee to be betrothed to Alex if not for the fact that he was already married to Eve.Maybe this was the reason why Eve loathed her so much. Ever since she set foot inside the house, Hailee's gaze toward her had been full of malice and hatred.

"I DON'T agree with your marriage to that woman!"Edward's growl echoed in the large study. This kind of meeting was very typical for them. It would be truly boring if there wasn't some clash during their encounters. Father and son were truly fighting each other to the death!But Alex did not take him seriously. He calmly sat on the couch, unfazed, with a blank expression on his handsome face. Despite their heated argument, he was very nonchalant and maintained his indifferent demeanor."You are not in a position to tell me what to do," Alex responded in a cold tone with a straight face.His father became even more furious at his statement. Edward almost spat out his blood in so much anger."I am your father!" Edward growled again."You've only donated some of your sperm, and now you're calling yourself my father? Do you even deserve it?" Alex mocked him. Though his voice was low, there was a quiet storm brewing beneath his sharp words. His body was emanating an endless coldness at th

Alex had to return to the company after bringing Eve back to Autumn Garden. An urgent meeting with the board of directors required his attention, and by the time he returned home, it was already eight in the evening.Upon his arrival, he immediately inquired about Eve’s whereabouts. Butler Clark informed him that she had already had dinner. With that assurance, Alex had a quick meal himself before heading upstairs.When he entered their bedroom, he found it empty. Taking off his coat, he instinctively walked toward the balcony.There she was.She was lying quietly on the long, inclined padded couch near the glass railing, hugging a small pillow while gazing up at the starry night sky. The soft glow of the moon cast a gentle light on her delicate features, making her look even more ethereal.Noticing his presence, she quickly adjusted her position and sat upright."Why are you still outside? It’s getting cold," he said, picking up a woven blanket and draping it over her shoulders."I’m

SUMMER break was over. Eve's mother was finally discharged from the hospital to continue recuperating at home, and she would be starting her internship too. They finally got the heads-up from the university. Their internship would be in the biggest conglomerate in Summerville, which was none other than the Galaxy Empire Group.Today was the first day of her internship. She was clad in a royal blue corporate dress suit, looking smart and sexy. Her sharp and elegant demeanor was greatly emphasized by her outfit. She added delicate makeup to her exquisite face and just let her wavy hair hang down.When she came down, Alex was waiting for her in the living room. Noticing her arrival, he immediately stood up and went to her with a lingering stare. Her cheeks felt hot when she recalled the passionate night they had shared two days ago. It was so intense that her private part was still sore. After that night, she had been bedridden

"Mr. Harris please spare me. I really didn't knew the reason behind Mr. Flemings withdrawal." The senior manager of Amber Holdings was kneeling infront of the CEO's desk. His look was terribly horrified because once his falsity will be exposed he's finished not just his career but also his entire life. Alex who was calmly sitting on his executive chair had an indifferent and icy look at the manager who was kneeling on the floor with a nervous look. "The information of our investors is strictly confidential and you, as the operation manager on that company clearly knew it's internal affairs. Do you take me as a fool?" Alex growled in a lower but chilly voice. The room was slowly turning into an ice cave. " M-Mr. Harris i really d-don't know! " The manager exclaimed nervously while stammering. Alex threw a stack of photos infront of him. It was a perfect shot from him being bribed by Jaxon's assistant and there was even a ban

EVE was bombarded by Kelly's messages at night, telling her that she had become the hottest topic on the internet. Out of curiosity, she logged into one of her social media accounts. Her inbox was flooded with messages from unknown people. She went to the search bar and found that she was indeed the top search. Most of the trending topics quoted: "The excellent CEO of Galaxy Empire was secretly keeping a woman," and "Mr. Harris, the young and powerful CEO of Galaxy Group, was seduced by his new secretary." These were just some of the many trending searches about them on the internet. There were countless hashtags related to the issue, and below them was a photo of her and Alex together in the company's underground parking lot. Every angle of them in the photos had been perfectly captured. She had no idea who could be behind this propaganda. She browsed her news feed and read the comments from netizens. Some were positive, but most were negative. Almost everyone was hurling hars

The break room and the CEO’s office were connected by a single door, so when Eve stepped out, she was immediately greeted by the sight of Tracy standing in front of Alex’s desk. Tracy was in the middle of giving a report but paused abruptly when she saw Eve emerging. Her expression shifted from surprise to something darker—shocked, then quickly livid. Alex, who had been keeping his head down the entire time, raised it only when the voice reporting to him suddenly stopped. His sharp eyes were far more intimidating than the rumors suggested. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Eve standing just outside the break room door. “I told you to rest. You don’t have to work if you’re tired,” he said with a furrowed brow. It was obvious she still looked weak. “I’m fine now. Excuse me.” Eve hurried out, deeply uncomfortable at having been caught inside the CEO’s office, as if she’d been red-handed in a forbidden place. Alex’s eyes followed her until the door closed be

At noon, Butler Clark delivered their lunch. And guess what...? The CEO's office also had a big break room with a comfy bed, a cozy dining area, a spacious bathroom, and even a closet where Alex’s garments were neatly placed. She was dumbstruck to find such a place in a CEO’s office."Butler Clark, did Alex live here in the past? Why does he have so many things in this place?"She curiously asked the butler while they were busy arranging the food on the dining table. She insisted on helping him while waiting for Alex, who was still in a video conference call just outside in his office."Yes, young mistress. Though young master has many villas, he often stayed here or in his hotel because it is more convenient for him," Clark answered thoughtfully."That’s weird."Just as they finished setting the table, Alex walked in and proceeded to wash his hands in the sink."Young master, young mistress, please enjoy your meal," Butler Clark bowed before leaving the room."Clark brought too much

THE NEXT DAY...Eve couldn’t escape from her husband’s arrangements anymore. Since she was brought to the hospital yesterday, Alex hadn’t allowed her to return to work and insisted she rest at home. He even gave specific instructions to the housekeeper, especially regarding their daily meals. And today, he insisted she accompany him to the company—under the convenient title of his personal secretary. Clearly, he had found another way to keep her under his nose.Earl was driving them, while John—now assigned as Alex’s personal driver and bodyguard—followed closely behind with a few discreet bodyguards. Alex’s security was so tight, even a fly couldn’t slip through.At her request not to be seen arriving at the building’s entrance with him, Alex took her through the underground parking and into his private elevator. Only he and Earl had access to it. Eve finally breathed a sigh of relief.She was in the pantry office getting some water when Tracy suddenly appeared, eyeing her with mali

“She has mild gastritis, which is why she had a severe stomach ache caused by excessive intake of spicy food. Please be more careful with her diet. Her immunity isn’t very strong,” the doctor stated after conducting a brief check-up on Eve.“But she’s fine now and can be discharged after finishing her drip. I shall take my leave now, Mr. Harris,” the doctor respectfully bowed before leaving the room.Eve was leaning against the head of the bed. Her face, which had been very pale earlier, had now regained some color. The discomfort in her stomach had eased, though she still felt a bit weak. The unbearable pain had tortured her so much that she almost fainted on the way to the hospital. She had clutched Alex’s suit tightly throughout the journey, and fortunately, she endured it.Matthew and Kelly, who had followed them all the way, had also left after confirming that she was finally okay. It was their first day of internship—skipping work wasn’t a good idea.“How do you feel now?” Alex

During lunch break, Eve and Kelly met up and headed toward the company cafeteria to have their lunch. Actually, Alex told her to wait for him so they could eat outside, but she insisted on having lunch in the corporate cafeteria. Matthew also joined them, and the three occupied a three-seater table. Almost all the employees in the company ate in the cafeteria, making the whole place really crowded."Ladies, here comes your food. I also added your favorite dishes," Matthew said, arriving at their table with a large tray. Being a gentleman, he had volunteered to get the food for them."Ahh, finally! I can now eat. My head hurts from cracking codes all morning! I feel so hungry right now," Kelly grumbled, helping set the food on the table."Evie, I got your favorite mashed potatoes with cheese," Matthew said, handing her a small bowl."Wow, thanks!" she exclaimed, her eyes shining as she accepted the bowl. Mashed potatoes were truly her favorite."How's your work in the CEO's office?"
