"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 91

    Rebecca sat on the edge of her apartment bed, her hair still loose after she had taken out her hairpin. The light makeup that had been neatly applied earlier was beginning to fade, leaving a slight smudge of eyeliner in the corner of her eye. She stared at the small mirror on the dressing table, looking at her own reflection. Her thoughts drifted back to the past, two months before Nora returned—a night that still haunted her to this day.That night, the hotel ballroom was filled with laughter and formal conversation. The annual office gala was underway. Rebecca stood not far from Samuel, wearing an elegant knee-length black dress, her hair neatly pinned up. She looked professional like any other secretary, though deep down she felt a pang of bitterness—because in truth, she was Samuel Wilson’s wife.But no one knew. Only the two of them kept that secret. All others knew was that Nora was Samuel’s wife. Samuel was talking to a colleague from the overseas branch, a glass of wine in hi

    Samuel sat back down in his chair after watching Rebecca, Liam, and Reno disappear from view. He sat silently, staring blankly at the empty glass. His eyes looked sad, his mind drifting back to the past—to the time when Rebecca was still his wife.His head leaned against the chair, and slowly his eyes closed. All the memories he had been suppressing surfaced one by one.It was a cold, biting night. Light rain tapped against the apartment window. Samuel lay in bed with a feverish forehead, a weak body, and a throat that felt like it was on fire. He didn’t like being taken care of—it was too much trouble, he said. But Rebecca, as usual, didn’t care about Samuel’s refusal. “I told you, I don’t need to be looked after,” Samuel snapped when Rebecca came in with a bowl of porridge and a thermos of hot water.Rebecca approached with a calm expression. “You have a high fever. If I leave you alone, it could get worse.”Samuel turned his face away, refusing to look at her. “I’m not a child.”R

    Rebecca returned to the table, putting on a brave face as if everything was fine. However, the sadness she felt was evident in her eyes. Her gaze was blank for a moment before she realized Reno was calling her."Mommy... Mommy, what's wrong?" Reno asked, looking at his mother with confusion.Rebecca smiled slightly, gently patting her son’s head. “Nothing’s wrong, sweetheart. Mommy’s just tired.”Liam looked at Rebecca closely, then glanced briefly at Samuel, who was still sitting with Nora. Samuel’s face was expressionless, but his eyes continued to follow Rebecca’s movements from a distance.“If you want to go home first, I can take Reno out to play for a while,” Liam offered gently.Rebecca shook her head. “No need. I can stay here. Besides, Reno is having fun.”Reno smiled again as he ate his spaghetti. But his little eyes occasionally glanced at his mother’s weary face.Samuel was still watching from the opposite table. He closed his eyes for a moment, then memories of the past r

    That afternoon, the atmosphere at an outdoor café in the city center was bustling. The air was quite cool, perfect for spending time with family or loved ones.Rebecca sat at one of the tables with Liam and Reno. They looked relaxed, laughing quietly as they enjoyed their weekend. Reno sat between them, playing with a spoon, his five-year-old face beaming with joy.“Reno, do you want spaghetti or chicken wings?” Liam asked, opening the menu.“Spaghetti!” Reno answered enthusiastically.Rebecca smiled. “Aren’t you tired of eating that all the time?”“No, Mommy! Reno loves it!” the boy replied, tapping the table.Soon, the waiter came to take their order. After that, Liam leaned back comfortably and turned to Rebecca.“You seem calmer today,” Liam said softly. Rebecca nodded. “Yes, because I’m happy to enjoy some free time with Reno.” Liam looked at her intently. “I’m glad to see you smiling like this.”Rebecca lowered her head slightly. There was a hint of uncertainty in her eyes,

    At 7:00 in the morning, Samuel's apartment was quiet. Samuel had just finished showering and was putting on his shirt when the doorbell rang. He walked to the door and opened it. "Mom? Why are you here so early in the morning?! What's wrong?!""There's something I want to talk to you about." Mrs. Wanna stepped inside. The woman sat on the sofa, followed by Samuel. "Just say it, Mom!"Mrs. Wanna looked at her son seriously. "Samuel, how old are you now?"Samuel narrowed his eyes. “Five years older than five years ago, Mom,” Samuel answered half-jokingly. But Mrs. Wanna didn’t laugh. “Mommy is serious. You’re 31 years old, Samuel. I want to see you happy, with a wife, with a family. Mommy also wants a grandchild.”Samuel fell silent. He stared at his teacup.“Is this about Nora again?” Samuel asked softly. “Yes. Nora is a good woman, Samuel. She’s patient, she’s been waiting for you faithfully. She’s been waiting too long, hoping you’ll marry her.”Samuel sighed. “Mom, I don’t lov

    In the stuffy basement, Sindy and Anthony began to despair."We have to get out of here," Sindy muttered, her voice hoarse.Anthony turned his head. "I know. But the guards here are too vigilant."“I’ve marked it. Every night at nine o’clock, the main lights are turned off briefly. Maybe that’s when they change shifts,” Sindy whispered, recalling.Anthony nodded. “Then we’ll try tonight. But we need a tool to cut these ropes first.”Sindy turned toward the corner of the room. “There’s a rusty nail on the back wall. If I can move a little toward it.”Anthony slowly turned his body. “We’ll work together. You push with your feet, and I’ll try to move my body in that direction.”With great effort, they began to slowly shift their bodies. Their movements were slow but steady. Meanwhile, the sound of footsteps outside the room grew increasingly rare. The hope was small, but it was enough to keep them going.On the other side of the city, an elegant restaurant in the business district was bu
