The next morning, I woke up to something strange.

A basket sat neatly by my doorstep, tied with a thin white ribbon. Inside were apples, oranges, a small pack of cherry tomatoes, and two bottles of milk. No note. Just there like it had been placed quietly before sunrise.

I stood there for a while, not moving. It wasn’t the first time something unexpected happened lately, but this… this felt deliberate.

When I picked up one of the apples, I noticed a faint indentation, as if someone had checked i

  • Mr. CEO, Leave Me Breathless    Chapter 215

    “Eat first.” I heard him say as he set the tray of food on the side table next to the bed where I was.My hands and feet were still tied. I stayed silent, sensing my surroundings. Right now, all I could think about was how to find a way out of this place.“Eat, Selina, and after that I will treat your wound,” he said softly again.“I don’t fucking need your help,” I said firmly, locking my gaze on him.His jaw tightened as he stared at me. It seemed like he was measuring how far his patience could stretch. I didn’t know what he was thinking. I couldn’t read the expression on his face, but I knew he could read mine. All my anger and hatred were screaming through my whole being, and I stared back even harder.He let out a sharp sigh and moved as if to approach me, so I became alert. I immediately stepped back, fueled by the anger I felt.“I’ll remove the bullet from your wound—”“Don’t you ever fucking touch me, I am warning you. I don’t fucking want to be held by you, so please stay aw

    “Selina, let’s fucking go. The professional army’s surrounding us—they’ll deal with the rest,” I heard Uncle whisper, but I didn’t listen.My gaze stayed fixed on Yuan, whose look seemed filled with hatred. I could feel the raw anger radiating from him.“You’re fucking too much, and I want you to suffer for it. I fucking hate you,” he spat, crossing the distance between us in a heartbeat.I was too stunned to move. Bullets rained around us, and a burning pain seared through my arm—I instinctively grabbed it.“Selina! Fucking—this is madness!” someone screamed.But I wasn’t focused on them. My attention was on the man who had hoisted me onto his shoulder. I couldn’t even struggle—my shoulder ached too much. I was bleeding, and it hurt like hell.“W-where are you taking me? Put me down!” I shouted, striking his back, but he didn’t budge.He ran faster as chaos swirled around us. Lifting my head, I saw Enrique Lim’s forces multiplying, scattering, trading bullets with the police.“L-let

    After that scene, I pushed forward toward the precinct. I learned that the police who were supposed to handle the two hadn’t arrived yet, so I returned to my car. I suddenly remembered the item, so I quickly retrieved it from where I had hidden it. I stared at it. When I looked up, the vehicle carrying the people who had destroyed my life and my family was right in front of me. I felt a surge of anger as I saw Yuan.I quickly hid it behind me and got out. I was about to take a step forward when gunshots ripped through the area. My soul almost left my body as I watched the police fall one by one, bleeding. Enrique Lim’s men were attacking the entire area. I knew it for sure.I quickly hid behind my car and scanned for Yvo and Lex. Some men approached Yuan and Enrique Lim, removing their handcuffs and handing them guns.

    I lazily walked over to the sofa across from Ethan’s bed and slowly sat down. I noticed Ethan glance at me for a brief moment, but I ignored it, too exhausted to care. Just as I settled in, my phone suddenly beeped. I grabbed it and read a text from Yvo.Yvo:We’re at the precinct. Enrique and Yuan were caught. Timothy is still missing and being searched for.I bit my lower lip after reading it. I suddenly wanted to go there just to see Yuan and hurt him for what he did to Ethan. Because of him, my suffering multiplied, and I didn’t know when it would end.I was about to type a reply when another message came in.Yvo:Don’t you dare come here, Selina. I’m warning y

    When night came, the four of them went home. I just stared at him as he slept, wondering how long he would stay like this. I wondered when his memories would return because even though I was happy he had woken up, I knew deep inside that I was struggling with the situation now. Especially because of Slater. I had not let him see Ethan since he woke up. He still did not know what was happening. But I was thinking of bringing him here because it might help Ethan remember.I picked up my phone when that thought crossed my mind and immediately dialed Mary’s number. It rang several times before she finally answered.“Mary, can you bring Slater here tomorrow? I’ll have someone pick you up,” I said as soon as she answered the call.“Is that Mommy? Can I talk to her?” I heard Slater say f

    I approached Vane and Miko.“He still hasn’t woken up?” Vane asked me, and I simply shook my head.“Asher can’t come. Alyanna isn’t feeling well,” Miko said. I just nodded at him.“How is Slater?” I asked Vane while staring at Ethan inside.“They were asleep with Melody when I left the house. He prayed for you and Ethan.”I smiled at what Vane said. We continued watching Ethan from outside for a while when I suddenly saw his hand move, which alarmed me.“Did you see that? He moved!” I almost shouted at them.“I saw it! He might be waking up. I’ll
