Resurrected for Love: The CEO's Obsession

I was shocked that Caleb knew I was a strategist. He was too intelligent. I couldn't hide the truth from him when I was trying to get close to him, so I told him what I was, but I never told him the events of the story.How did he find out that I had to play the role of his first love who died early? Did he always know? Or did he only find out after I faked my death and escaped?"She's my mother!" Arthur exclaimed. "It wasn't easy for us to meet. Get lost! Don't touch her!"Arthur glared fiercely at the maid, reminiscent of a beast protecting its young. He stood in front of me, shielding me behind him. He chased the maid out of the ward, but before she left, I saw her making a call.He bit his lip and tried to wipe his tears discreetly. An uncomfortable feeling churned in my heart when I saw how red his eyes were."Did you strain the wound from your surgery?" I asked. "Does it hurt?"Arthur scoffed. His arrogance was truly identical to Caleb's. "It's just an appendectomy."I was

It was the same first-aid kit that I had prepared for Caleb a long time ago. He tended to accidentally hurt himself, so I prepared a first-aid kit for him and stocked it with items he would regularly use.As expected, Caleb was stunned. His eyes were crazed and obsessed when he looked at the wooden doll in front of him. "Did you come back, Lena?" he asked.His question went unanswered, no matter how long he waited. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he barked out a self-deprecating laugh. "I really must have gone insane. I really thought your soul entered the doll."The system sounded elated as it gave its next report. "Ms. Rockworth, the timing for the soul-summoning ritual has passed. Even if Mr. Finley wants to slice his wrists and sacrifice his blood, he'll have to wait until next year."I looked at Caleb. He had thrown the carving knife aside in favor of kneeling to grab the bandages in the first-aid kit, wrapping them around his wrist. I breathed out a sigh of relief, but

I knew that the wound was no accident. Caleb had clearly cut himself for whatever ritual he was trying to do that involved sacrificing his blood. I suddenly became furious after listening to his nonchalant tone."Why don't you care about your own well-being, Caleb?"Caleb's body stiffened, clearly not expecting me to get so angry. He chuckled before asking, "Are you worried about me, Helena?""Of course. Don't tell me that you forgot how to cherish yourself just because I wasn't by your side, Caleb."I scolded him indignantly, but I was stunned when I made eye contact with him. Caleb's eyes had reddened, and there was a ghost of a smile playing on his lips."You were so heartless when you left back then. I thought you didn't care about me anymore."His words rendered me speechless. Finally, I said dryly, "I never said I didn't care about you."I rose to my feet and searched the ward for bandages before wrapping his wrist with them. Afraid that he would remove them again, I made

I didn't know which drink to try first as I looked at the dozens of beverages placed on the table. Caleb glanced at Arthur before increasing the speed at which he piled more food on my plate. Not wanting to be outdone, Arthur also quickened his speed of pouring more drinks for me.It didn't take long before I had a mountain of food in front of me. The entire table was also covered with drinks. I placed down my utensils before speechlessly chasing them out of the booth."If you're done eating and have nothing else better to do, go run two laps outside the restaurant."Noticing my displeasure, both Caleb and Arthur hung their heads before leaving without a word.Silence was finally restored to the booth. As I began to dig into the food, the system suddenly spoke up."Are you there, Ms. Rockworth? I have news for you, although I am unsure if it's good or bad news.""Go ahead," I replied with a hum."I measured Mr. Finley's emotions. It has stabilized for now, but it might fluctuate
