The taxi drove slowly through the streets of New Jersey. Rebecca sat in the back seat, looking at the passing scenery through the window. Her mind was still filled with the last conversation with Nora. Rebecca's chest felt tight, but she forced herself to remain calm.

"You have to eat well," she murmured softly, stroking her stomach. "Mommy promised, we'll eat seafood today. Let's celebrate the good news from the doctor."

The taxi pulled up to a small café on the corner - Marlin Bay Café. The place was not too crowded, the atmosphere was warm with the tantalizing aroma of the sea. Rebecca got out of the taxi, wearing large brown glasses, a round hat, and a patterned cloth mask. She walked slowly inside, choosing to sit in a corner.

A waiter approached. "What would you like to order, Miss?"

"Butter sauce prawns, flour fried squid, and cold avocado juice. No need to be spicy, please," Rebecca replied, smiling behind her mask.

"Okay. Please wait, Miss."

Rebecca breathed a sigh of relief.

  • MR. CEO, Your Wife Is Back!   Chapter 14 - Failure to Meet

    "Why did you take my cell phone?" Jasper stared at the woman before him with a confused and slightly angry look. The woman stood calmly, wearing a long black coat and a burgundy scarf wrapped around her neck."I'm just stopping you from making a mistake," the woman replied casually as she handed him a small, elegant white card.Jasper briefly looked back at the café, then back at the woman. "Who are you exactly?""My name is Alexa," she replied quietly. "I work for someone who doesn't want Miss Rebecca to be found by anyone, especially Samuel Wilson."Jasper squinted, trying to read the meaning behind the words. "Who told you to?"Alexa smiled a little, not confirming, but not denying either. She simply handed him the card with one hand."You don't need to know. Inside this card is a small chip. Once you tap it with your phone, you'll have access to your account. The money is five times what Mr. Samuel promised. The condition? Keep your mouth shut. Say you saw something wrong. And don

  • MR. CEO, Your Wife Is Back!   Chapter 12 - Unhappy with Samuel

    Wilson's Mansion DecisionBraak!The thick magazine landed right on Samuel's face. He just looked down, letting the pages fall to the floor. His face remained calm despite the obvious anger burning before his eyes."WHAT IS THIS?!" snapped Mrs. Wanna, standing tall in front of the long table in the Wilson Mansion's grand living room. Her voice echoed throughout the room.Samuel raised his gaze softly. "Mom, please calm down-""Calm down? You think I can calm down after seeing this?" she exclaimed, pointing to the cover page of a magazine with a large picture; Samuel holding Nora's hand, smiling at the camera, with a large title: Samuel Wilson's Wife Nora Ariana Returns to Entertainment."I'm just helping Nora, Mom, the press conference was just a formality. The media made too much of it.""Helping?! You said it was helping? By admitting that she is your wife in public? " Mrs. Wanna shouted, her tone filled with unstoppable anger. "What about Rebecca's feelings?! How will my daughter-i

  • MR. CEO, Your Wife Is Back!   Chapter 11 - Congratulations, Mr. Samuel

    Camera flashes flooded the room. Reporters' voices overlapped, scrambling to ask questions. The halls of the luxury hotel were packed with media from all over. It had been a year since Miss Nora Ariana had disappeared from the entertainment world. Today, she was back with Samuel. Samuel stood proudly behind the podium, dressed in a flawless black suit. Beside him, Nora stood gracefully in an elegant white dress. Her hand clasped Samuel's arm, a sweet smile on her face.A journalist from the front row raised his hand high. "Mr. Samuel! Is it true? Nora Ariana?"Samuel glanced at Nora, then smiled slightly. In a calm but authoritative voice, he replied, "That's right. The beautiful woman standing next to me is Nora Ariana, my wife."The room immediately erupted in excitement. Murmurs filled the air."Where has she been all year? Why did Mrs. Nora disappear after getting married?" asked another reporter, they were very curious.Samuel looked down slightly at the microphone, his face se

  • MR. CEO, Your Wife Is Back!   Chapter 10 - Don't Want to Know

    As Nora left the café with a satisfied smile on her face, Samuel remained seated in his chair. His hands were clenched on the table, his jaw hardened.Wasting no time, Samuel reached into his coat pocket and pulled out his cell phone. He searched for a contact named Naya, the pseudonym of the female detective he had assigned, and pressed the call button.The connection picked up after a few seconds."Hello, Mr. Samuel," Naya's voice sounded on the other side, a little hesitant.Samuel clenched his teeth tightly before speaking. "I want some clarity. You said you saw Rebecca. But why is there no further news? Where's the proof?!""Sir, I... I thought it was indeed Mrs. Rebecca. But after I checked further, maybe I saw her wrong. I'm not sure yet," Naya replied in a low voice, almost a whisper.Samuel clenched his fists. The sound of the chair shifting was loud as he stood up. "WRONG LOOK?!" he snapped into the phone. A few café patrons turned their heads, but Samuel didn't care."I'm s

    The nurse had just typed a message on her cell phone screen. Her thumb was about to press the -send- button, when suddenly the sound of rapid steps pounded the floor of the hospital corridor."No need to send it," whispered a sharp voice behind her.The nurse reflexively turned her head. Her eyes widened at the sight of the figure standing there-Nora, with a cold face and piercing gaze."I'm just-" Nora snatched the cell phone out of her hand. She read the text message that hadn't been sent, then quickly deleted it. "Listen carefully," Nora said as she took out an ATM card from her small wallet. She held it out to him. "There's two million inside. Take it. But don't ever send that message to Samuel."The nurse looked doubtful, swallowing hard. "But... Mr. Samuel paid me to find Mrs. Rebecca.""And now I'm paying you to keep your mouth shut," Nora cut in quickly, her tone leaving no room for debate.The woman disguised as a nun was instantly recognized. She looked down for a moment,

  • MR. CEO, Your Wife Is Back!   Chapter 8 - Should I abort? 

    The dim light from the hospital lamp slowly infiltrated behind Rebecca's eyelids. Her head felt heavy, her body weak, and there was a strong scent of antiseptic in her nose. She blinked slowly. Her vision blurred for a moment before it finally began to clear. The white ceiling, the thin curtains next to the bed, the sound of the heart monitor beating softly.Rebecca groaned softly. Her throat was dry. She tried to raise her hands, but the strength seemed to be gone."Rebecca?" A voice sounded soft but clear from the right side of the bed. "You finally came to your senses..."Rebecca turned her head slowly. A man in a doctor's uniform stood there, his face familiar."Liam?" muttered Rebecca softly. "Liam Zayden? Is that you?"Liam nodded, smiling slightly. "Yes, it's me. It's been a long time since we met. Hm, it's a pity we're reunited under these circumstances."Rebecca was silent for a moment, then her breath caught. "Doctor Liam, why am I here? Then, my stomach... Doc, what about m

    "Nothing serious, just a slight injury to the ankle," the doctor said as he lowered the x-ray results from the screen. Nora immediately pursed her lips, looking disappointed. "But it hurts, Doc. Is it really nothing serious?" The doctor smiled politely. "The pain could be due to swelling, but there is no fracture. It just needs to be compressed and avoid standing too long." Samuel who was standing next to him just nodded briefly. "Thanks, Doc." After the doctor left the room, Samuel helped Nora up. He offered his hand, leading her out of the examination room. They were only a few meters away from the door when Samuel's phone vibrated. He looked at the name on the screen, answering immediately. "Bani?" Samuel's voice was low but clear. "Yes, sir. I just got information from a terminal officer. Mrs. Rebecca was seen at a bus stop nearby this morning. She took a taxi, apparently heading towards the city center." Samuel stopped walking. His eyes stared intently at the fl

    Samuel rubbed his face roughly. Then he dialed someone, namely Damon-his assistant and confidant. "Bani," Samuel's voice sounded cold yet firm as the phone connected. "Yes, Mr. Samuel?" "Rebecca left. Quick, find her. Don't let her get away." "Yes, Mr. Samuel," Bani said firmly. Samuel walked back and forth in the room that was now lonely without her. "Oh yes, Mr. Samuel. Is there any clue as to where Mrs. Rebecca might have gone?" asked Bani quickly. "She has no one but her Aunt and Nora." Samuel rubbed his face, he was really frustrated. "Anyway, you have to find my wife. Use all the connections we have. I don't care how much it costs." "Yes, Mr. Samuel. I understand." The phone was hung up. Samuel stood in the center of the silent room. He tried to catch his breath, but his chest felt tight. Before he could sit down, his cell phone rang again. Nora's name appeared on the screen. Reluctantly, Samuel answered the call from Nora. "Yes, what's wrong?" "Hone
