The evening sky began to turn red as Samuel sat in his office. The desk full of documents did nothing to calm his mind. Instead, it grew more chaotic. Only one thing filled his thoughts: Aric and Ellya’s engagement party, just one week away.

Samuel gripped his phone, then pressed the speed dial. Not long after, a deep voice came through.

“Yes, Sir?” The voice belonged to Bani, his most loyal assistant as well as a reliable right hand.

Samuel stared blankly out the window, then spoke in a low yet firm voice. “Bani, I have a task for you. Something that must not fail. Understand?”

“Always, Sir. What must I do?”

Samuel let out a long breath, then spoke softly, as if weighing his words. “You have to kidnap Aric.”

There was silence for a moment on the other end of the line. Bani was clearly shocked, though he quickly hid it. “Kidnap… Aric, Sir?”

“Yes.” Samuel gritted his teeth. “By any means necessary. Use Wilson’s connections. Leave no trace. I don’t want a single person to suspect our in

  • MR. CEO, Your Wife Is Back!   SEASON 2 — CHAPTER 102

    SEASON 2 — CHAPTER 102Reno’s car stopped in the yard of the Wilson residence in the late afternoon. Bella took a long breath before getting out. Her face was calm, a faint smile neatly in place, as if everything were fine.As soon as the door opened, the atmosphere inside the house felt different from what she had imagined.Rebecca was sitting in the family room with Shelyn. Samuel was not far away, helping Elang arrange wooden blocks on the floor. No one immediately turned to look when Reno and Bella entered.“Mom, Dad,” Reno greeted.Rebecca glanced over briefly. “Oh, you’re here.”Her tone was flat. She returned her attention to Shelyn. “Slowly, sweetheart. Don’t drop it.”Samuel smiled at Elang. “Try putting this one on top.”Bella stood a little stiffly. “Good afternoon, Mommy… Daddy.”Samuel looked over briefly. “Afternoon.”That was all. No hugs, no congratulations. Bella swallowed, trying to suppress her discomfort.Reno noticed the atmosphere. He reached for Bella’s hand. “L

    SEASON 2 — CHAPTER 101That morning, Bella’s name once again filled the timeline. It was no longer just trending—it had entered the top list of discussed topics. Videos, excerpts of text, and screenshots of her old posts continued to be reshared.Reno stared at the tablet screen in his office. His face was tense.“Still rising?” he asked briefly.“Yes, Sir,” Ken replied. “The public response is actually growing stronger. Many are demanding clarification.”Reno let out a heavy breath. “She won’t stop.”Ken looked at him carefully. “With all due respect, Sir… Bella is steering public opinion. If this is left alone, the impact could spread further.”Reno massaged his temples. “I know.”His phone vibrated. Another notification came in. Reno closed his eyes for a moment.“Prepare the car,” he finally said.“Now?” Ken asked.“Now,” Reno repeated firmly.At Bella’s apartment, the atmosphere was different. Bella sat on the sofa, phone in hand, reading the comments one by one. Some defended he

    SEASON 2 — CHAPTER 100Bella did not stop.In her apartment, with dim lights and her phone in hand, she stared at the screen again. Her eyes were swollen, but her gaze was sharp. Her fingers moved quickly, opening the same app, the same account, and emotions that had yet to subside.“I can’t lose,” Bella muttered. “I am a woman who was hurt.”She started typing again.Do you know what it feels like to accompany someone for six years? From when he fell, until he stood where he is now. But apparently, all of that lost to a past that suddenly reappeared. Even though that woman had humiliated him six years ago, ran away on their wedding day.Bella paused, swallowed, then continued.I don’t blame anyone. I’m just disappointed. Heartbroken. It turns out loyalty is not always appreciated. Just because there is a child, does that mean someone who stayed by his side for six years has to be hurt?She uploaded it. Again.It didn’t take long for the comment section to fill up once more. Sympathy

  • MR. CEO, Your Wife Is Back!   SEASON 2 — CHAPTER 99

    The media coverage began to subside. Several major outlets withdrew their articles, gossip accounts were no longer as active as the day before. Jessy’s name slowly disappeared from the timeline, replaced by other issues. However, the calm did not last long.In her apartment, Bella stared at her phone screen with her jaw clenched. Her hands were trembling, not from sadness, but from anger.“So this is how it’s done,” Bella muttered. “Everything just gets erased like that?”She scrolled the screen, reading old comments that no longer appeared. Some posts could no longer be found at all.Bella let out a short laugh. “Reno… you think this is over?”She stood up from the sofa and paced around the living room. Her mind was crowded. She had indeed stepped back, the engagement was canceled, but there was one thing she could not accept: the possibility of Reno and Jessy being together.“I don’t want them to be happy,” Bella said softly, but full of emotion.Bella sat down again, opened a socia

    SEASON 2 — CHAPTER 98Jessy’s phone vibrated on her work desk. She had just finished signing several documents when Reno’s name appeared on the screen. She stared at it for a few seconds, then answered with a cold expression.“Reno,” Jessy said bluntly.“Jessy, I was just about to call—”“Have you seen the news?” Jessy cut in sharply.Reno fell silent for a moment. “I have.”“Good,” Jessy said, her tone restrained. “My reputation was destroyed overnight. I’ve become a woman who ruins other people’s relationships.”“Jessy, calm down first,” Reno said, trying to ease the tension. “I’m handling this.”“Calm down?” Jessy let out a short laugh, without humor. “You’re telling me to calm down when everyone is pointing at me?”“I won’t let this drag on,” Reno replied quickly. “I’ll speak to the public.”“Speak how?” Jessy asked. “With more generic statements?”Reno exhaled. “I’m responsible. I’ll straighten this out.”“Reno,” Jessy’s voice rose. “Who do you think caused this problem? I stayed

    SEASON 2 — CHAPTER 97The main doors of the Wilson Group building had just opened when flashes of cameras immediately greeted Reno. Several reporters had been waiting since morning, as if they knew exactly when he would come out.“Mr. Reno!” “Is it true that your engagement to Miss Bella has been called off?” “There are rumors about a third party. Is it Elara?”Reno stopped walking. He looked at the crowd with a flat expression. His bodyguards were about to step forward, but Reno raised his hand.“Calm down,” he said briefly.He took one step closer to the microphones. “I will answer one thing.”The reporters immediately fell silent, listening intently.“Yes, our engagement has been canceled,” Reno said clearly. “The reason is simple. Bella and I are not compatible.”“Not compatible in what way, Sir?” “Is it because of Elara’s presence?” “Are you going back to your ex?”Reno took a breath. “There is no third party in this decision.”“Then why was it canceled?” one reporter pressed.Re
