Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 60- A disastrous night
Almost immediately, a strange heat spread through Hailee’s veins. The voices around her blurred, and an unbearable sensation crawled in her skin. Her breathing grew heavy, her pupils dilated, and a flush of unnatural heat spread across her body. A foreign hunger consumed her, growing more uncontrollable by the second.She took a step forward but stumbled, throwing herself into Jaxon’s arms. The overwhelming heat subsided slightly as she landed against his sturdy, warm chest—but her body craved more. Her mind spun with hallucinations, completely disoriented. Desperation gripped her as she clung to Jaxon, seeking relief from the unbearable sensation.Mandy stiffened, her entire body going rigid. How had the plan she had meticulously orchestrated spiraled into chaos? Worse, how had it backfired onto her own daughter? This can’t be happening!Meanwhile, Jaxon’s expression darkened with each passing second as Hailee fussed over him. Her hands roamed his chest, her face pressing against him
Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 59- Hailee consumed their own scheme
The orchestra struck the first notes of a slow waltz, and couples began making their way to the dance floor, gowns swirling and shoes gliding across the shimmering lights.From the start of the evening, Alex never left Everette’s side. His presence was steady, quiet but constant. His attention fixed solely on her. He made sure she was comfortable, that her glass stayed full, that no one lingered too close. For those who knew him—or thought they did—it was a strange sight. Alexander Harris, known for being cold and untouchable, was now a man quietly devoted to his wife.Ever since the incident at the hospital, security had doubled around them. He made sure nothing can get close to his wife, not even a fly. His men tonight blended into the crowd, dressed like guests, but their eyes tracked every movement. Too many people in this room had secrets in their smiles.But Alex already knew what tonight was about.Let them play. Besides, he was always five steps ahead of them.___"Are you enj
Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 58- The reunion of nemesis
The ballroom was bright and beautiful, full of soft music, quiet laughter, and the clink of glasses. Everything looked perfect on the surface, but there was a tension in the air—subtle, silent, and hard to ignore.And then something changed.Heads slowly turned as Edward Harris walked in with Caroline on his arm. They looked polished, like a couple out of a magazine. Caroline leaned into him a little too perfectly, like she knew she was being watched. Some people smiled politely. Others barely hid their curiosity. A few gave tight-lipped smiles that didn’t reach their eyes.Celest saw them from across the room. Her hand closed gently around her silver clutch, but her expression didn’t change. There was a time when this moment would’ve shaken her. A time when just seeing them would have left her breathless, drowning in old pain.But not anymore.Celest stayed still, calm and graceful.Caroline wasn’t a threat now. Not anymore. She was just someone from a past Celest had already moved o
Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 57- The banquet
Samuel Croft had always been a powerful man in Cameron City. People respected him, feared him, and watched his every move. But Summerville wasn’t the same. Here, power came with old names and silent rivalries. People smiled to your face while planning your downfall behind your back. Still, Samuel wasn’t the kind of man to step in quietly. Tonight, he made his presence known—with a grand banquet at the Galaxy Hotel, owned by his son-in-law, Alexander Harris.The ballroom was breathtaking. Crystal chandeliers sparkled above and bathed the crowd with warm, golden light. Soft music filled the space—violins and piano blending into the hum of conversation. Waiters moved through the room with trays of wine and bite-sized food. The city’s most important people were there: politicians, business tycoons, celebrities, and family dynasties.Alexander Harris stood among them like a dignified king in his black tuxedo. He looked calm, confident, and eye-catching. Every step he to
Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 56- Hailee's award-winning drama
The newcomers were a little stunned, their eyes darting around the tense atmosphere. Hailee quickly shifted her expression into a pitiful one, pretending to be the victim of bullying. She let out a dramatic gasp and clutched the spot where she was supposedly scalded, her eyes watering as she winced exaggeratedly."Ah! My chest… it burns. Elder sister, how could you do this?" Hailee whimpered, wearing a sorrowful expression.The nurse immediately examined her burn and gave a brief, professional judgment. "It's just mild redness. No serious burn, but I’ll apply some ointment just in case. You should still consult a doctor, Miss, to avoid complications."Hailee's expression faltered slightly after being exposed.Eve looked at the overly dramatic Hailee with indifference. The water she poured wasn't even hot—of course it wouldn’t cause a serious burn. This scheming woman actually believed Eve would be swayed or intimidated by such childish ploys. How foolish.Ellie and Celest walked past
Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 55- Eve and Hailee's confrontation in the hospital
Before Eve could speak, Alex’s hands found her—palms gliding over her wet skin, fingers splaying against her waist as he carefully backed her against the cool tiles. His eyes burned with passion, and his heated gaze seemed to sink into her sensitive skin. There was no way out, and she couldn’t resist him anymore when he claimed her in an ardent kiss. Water poured over them continuously, drenching their bodies, which tangled in shared fire. Her fingers slid through his damp hair as he deepened the kiss, his tongue sweeping against hers. His hands possessively roamed over her bare skin, exploring the valleys and peaks he’d long since memorized—but never tired of rediscovering.Heavy breaths filled the bathroom when their lips finally parted. Eve’s eyes turned misty, her cheeks flushed with color. Alex almost lost control, but at the last second, he remembered her condition. Now wasn’t the time for anything strenuous—not until the fetus in her belly stabilized. For now, he could only endu

“As the mother of my child, I will give you ten percent of the shares in Croft's Eternal Gems.”Samuel was talking about his family's company. He was already making advance arrangements for her, and later he would instruct Roman to revise his will and testament.“This marriage was a mistake from the very beginning. Why should we continue trapping ourselves in a forced marriage? We're just hurting each other every day, Mandy. I don't want to hurt you any longer—just as I don't want to live in regret forever. I will compensate you in any way I can. Let's just get divorced.” He spoke in exasperation. He was truly tired and feeling suffocated by their situation.When Mandy finally recovered from her shock, her anger rose again and she immediately flared up. “No! I won't agree to the divorce—never! I know you're doing this because you want to go back to Ellie. Ha! You wish, Samuel! I will never let you two live in peace. You will never be happy as long as I'm alive!”Samuel's expression t
Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 53- Let's divorce
"What’s going on, Dad? You have a lot of things to explain to me."Hailee confronted her father the moment he stepped inside the house. Her confusion had been growing ever since dinner, especially after noticing the way he kept looking at Eve’s mother. And when Eve collapsed, he had been overly concerned—following them all the way to the hospital. It triggered a bad premonition.Her mother, Mandy, had been furious ever since and refused to speak to her about the matter. That silence only added to Hailee’s frustration after months of constant setbacks. First, Alex had married another woman. Then, the people who used to support her—especially Alex’s mother—had turned against her, completely swayed by that spiteful woman. Her mind was a storm, desperate to find a way to win Alex back."Where’s your mother?" Samuel asked."She’s in her room. And she’s mad," Hailee replied with a sharp tone.Mandy was, in fact, smashing things in her room in a frenzy.Samuel led Hailee to the sofa. "Sit do
Fated to the Cold and Ruthless CEO Chapter 52- Eve is pregnant
Everyone was anxiously waiting for the test results from Evie’s laboratory exams after Alex brought her to the city's nearest hospital. Their families were very worried due to her sudden collapse during the family dinner. Ellie, Perry, and Celest followed them to the hospital, and Samuel also came after he had completely coaxed Hailee and Mandy to go home. Actually, they were just living in the same neighborhood. Evie was currently placed in a VIP room and was already awake. It was half past eight, and Alex decided to stay at the hospital overnight to ensure her safety. After waiting for maybe half an hour, the doctor finally came in with the diagnosis. He greeted everyone in the room as he entered. “How is my wife, Doctor?” Alex asked immediately in a calm tone. But his composed demeanor betrayed him when Eve felt his hand—holding hers—tighten. “The results of her labs are fine. There’s nothing to worry about. She’s in
