Rebirth: From Devoted Wife to Ice Queen CEO Chapter 12: “I’ve decided to marry Ethan Luo.”
Aria picked up her phone from the dinning table after dropping the documents and and send a quick text to Mira.>"Hey Mira, you free? Let's met up at Noir by Eleven in thirty minutes?"Mia's reply came immediately.>"Sure. See you there."Noir by Eleven is An exclusive rooftop restaurant and wine bar where Aria and Mia often dine. Reservations are impossible without a name or a scandal.It's known for its low lighting, sweeping sea views, and private glass booths.A favorite for secret meetups, whispered alliances, and accidental paparazzi sightings.The restaurant was discreet, dim lighting, velvet booths, and soft jazz playing under the clink of expensive cutlery. No cameras and no flashing lights. Just the kind of silence Aria liked.She was five minutes early, of course.Mia slid into the booth two minutes after that, in a black leather jacket over a silk blouse, her hair swept up carelessly but still looking like a Vogue editorial. She dropped her bag beside her and raised an e

Aria's povAfter the meeting was over, Aria stood by her office window, arms crossed loosely across her chest, watching the skyline. From this high up, the city looked smaller. Manageable even.She had to come up with a solution, a long time solution that will shut all the gossips for good.But what could she use? What will definitely shut the gossips for good?A soft knock on her office door interrupted her, from thinking.“You can come in,” she said.The door opened gently and her father stepped inside, his tailored suit as crisp as always, his expression carrying none of the coldness it had during the meeting.Her forehead wrinkled in surprise upon seeing her father. Since she took over as CEO, he hardly comes into the office and when ever he does like today, he goes home immediately after. According to him, he was no longer needed at the office.Daniel Lin closed the door behind him and walked to her desk, glancing around the room like it hadn’t changed. “You always did like th
Rebirth: From Devoted Wife to Ice Queen CEO Chapter 10: “You mean the headlines.”
Aria's pov The sunlight had just begun to warm the marble floors of the east wing when her phone buzzed on her nightstand. It was just 6:44 AM, but she was already dressed in sleek black slacks, a steel-gray blouse tucked in with precision. The edge of her mouth lifted in something that almost looked like hope but held too much tension Her hair was pulled into a low, smooth bun, and a simple gold chain with a watch. She couldn't sleep a wink through out the night. Again. It was now becoming a very bad habit of hers. She picked up the phone without urgency. It was a new message from Marcus Heller > “Board requests your presence this morning. 9:30. Full attendance. Your father will be present.” Aria stared at the screen for a moment, her brows furrowed tightly,and face pinching. Her brows arched upward as if in surprise, but the tightness around her mouth betrayed a deeper calculation. The meeting was a long time coming. What really surprised her was her father be

Aria's pov The sun had dipped low over Linyang, throwing golden light against the towering glass of Lin Corporation. Aria walked out of the building her face calm, but her thoughts are not. She was still thinking of Karla's betrayal. She had to admit that it hurt her. She promised herself not to care for anyone and to look only after herself. But here she was still thinking about Karla's betrayal. They were close, not as how she and Mia grew up together, but she still considered Karla as a close friend. The two of them where the only females out of the twenty new interns that where picked about six years ago. And that leads to them being close, they stuck together, and did everything in the office together. Karla was a nice person, so she didn't know where it had all gone wrong. Did she did it for money? For game? No matter how hard she thought of it, it just didn't make sense at all. Well, enough about Karla, she was old news now. Her heels clicked softly acro
Rebirth: From Devoted Wife to Ice Queen CEO Chapter 8: “You have twelve hours.”
Aria's povHer mind had a million things for her to do, but her eyelids kept pulling shut.It was just 8:53am now, but she was already tired.She slumped in her chair, her posture betraying the weariness that had settled deep into her bones.She couldn't erase the look on Ethan's face, when he stormed out of her office just an hour ago.She knew that she had hurt him, and there was nothing she could do to fix that. It's not like she can help him get back with his girlfriend at this point.The office was beginning to buzz by then. She could here phones ringing outside her office door, and the clicking of heels against the polished floors.She checked her phone for perhaps the 20th time. Markus and Delilah still haven't brought what she asked them for.It seems she would have to take matters into her own hands.She was seated at her desk in a deep navy dress suit and a pair of black heels.Her door remained closed since Ethan barged out, the glass frosted over.she spoke quietly into t
Rebirth: From Devoted Wife to Ice Queen CEO Chapter 7: “Don’t be dramatic.”
Ethan povLisa.He beamed, a radiant smile stretching from ear to ear, his entire face alight with a glow that mirrored the warmth in his heart.Her hair was perfectly swept back, lips pressed into a firm line, and not a trace of makeup smudged despite the night. She looked stunning, it hurt. He stared at her, as though he were hypnotized.She stepped inside without asking. “I’m just here for my things.”He blinked, the whiskey making everything feel slightly off-balance. “Lisa, wait. Please... can we talk? Just for a second?” he asked, his voice trembling.She didn’t answer him.She just walked straight past him to the bedroom, grabbed the overnight bag she used to keep there, and started pulling items from the drawer. Her hand grazed the book he once bought her on a whim... Paris in Bloom. She didn’t even hesitate, she puts it into the bag.Ethan followed her, his heart in his throat. “It wasn’t what it looked like.” he tried explaining again.Lisa zipped the bag. “You kissed h
