Due to the wrong angle, Priscilla didn’t see the Rolls-Royce on the other side.

After she got in the car, she received a call from Frederick.

The man’s voice was a little cold and hoarse. He asked, “Where are you?”

Raising her eyebrows, Priscilla looked around at the traffic and asked in a low voice, “I-I’m in the company. What’s wrong?”

The man on the other side paused for a moment.

Somehow, Priscilla felt a little uneasy. She looked around again and made sure that there was no familiar face or car. Then she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then she asked, “Are you off now?”

“Not yet.”

“Then... Go back to your work. See you tonight.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up the phone, Frederick breathed a long sigh.

Looking at the darkening screen of the phone, she suddenly laughed at herself.

What was she afraid of?

That man was not her real husband. Even if she had slept with him two times, so what? Even if they had the marriage certificate, so what?

Wasn’t he also hiding something from her? Why did sh

  • THE CEO'S WIFE   CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWENTY-TWO – LOVE UNSHAKEN

    The grand ballroom of the Aurelian Hotel shimmered under the glow of crystal chandeliers, casting a warm, golden hue over the sea of elegantly dressed guests. Tonight, it wasn’t a place of betrayal or whispered plots. Tonight, it was a temple of love, a sanctuary where Priscilla and Fredrick would finally seal their bond.After everything they had endured—the deceit, the threats, the near-death experience—tonight was a testament to their resilience.And tonight, in front of the world, they would celebrate it.Priscilla stood in the bridal suite, her reflection staring back at her from the full-length mirror.The gown was breathtaking.A masterpiece of intricate lace and delicate pearls, the off-shoulder design framed her collarbones perfectly, while the flowing skirt cascaded down like a waterfall of silk. A delicate veil, embroidered with shimmering crystals, draped from the crown of her head, a silent promise of the sacred vows she was about to take.She exhaled slowly, running her

  • THE CEO'S WIFE   CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWENTY-ONE – A PACT OF VENGEANCE

    The woman’s gaze was sharp, unyielding, her dark eyes filled with something dangerous—something primal.Hatred.She stood at the edge of the grand ballroom, her fingers tightening around the stem of her champagne glass as she watched Priscilla from across the room.Priscilla, radiant in her emerald-green gown, moved through the crowd with effortless grace, smiling, laughing, unaware of the storm brewing just beyond her vision.She doesn’t deserve any of it.The thought slithered through the woman’s mind like venom.She was supposed to be nothing—an unwanted child of the Waals, an orphan taken in out of charity. Yet she had grown up in luxury, had been given love, attention, and a family name.While she…She had been the outsider.The adopted daughter.The replacement.Priscilla was the real daughter. The one they truly loved.And for that, she had to die.She had spent years waiting, biding her time.Hiding the bitterness beneath practiced smiles. Perfecting the art of deception.But

    Everyone was merrier as they celebrated.Lourdes felt a little bit awkward when she saw Ben.Ben, on the other hand, kept staring at Nancy.Although she had given birth, she was still as pretty as ever, but now it seems this pretty lady hates him.He wore a sullen look and kept staring.Andrei came over and tried to tease Him.“Hey Ben, you seem so lost staring at that pretty lady over there. Are you aware your recent ex is here? How do you do it? Nancy has given birth, definitely she is taken!”Ben stared at him coldly, “ I’m aware she has given birth, and as for Lourdes, we never really dated.”Ben thought of something, then smiled.He walked over to Lourdes.They chatted and kept smiling at each other and laughing so loudly.Lourdes enjoyed his company and wished that the relationship they had could become real.On the other hand, Nancy kept staring at them.She was having mixed feelings. Priscilla observed that her face didn’t look so good and she asked, “Best, are you okay?”Nancy

    In other words, even though he was staying here by force, he could forget relying on her for food and drink.If you didn’t work, you wouldn’t eat.She’d thought that he’d be dissatisfied with her words.Unexpectedly, he simply looked coldly at her and said, “I’ve already dismissed that maid of yours.”Nancy blinked.“What?” Ben frowned.“You didn’t hear me?”“No, why did you dismiss my maid?”Ben sneered.“If I didn’t, was I supposed to wait for her to help you escape?”Nancy’s temper flared.“I already told you I’m not going to run. And in my condition, how far can I get?”Ben ignored her completely. “I have no faith in you.”She clenched her teeth and suppressed her anger.“All right, then. What am I supposed to eat and drink with the maid gone? You don’t expect me to make my meals while pregnant, do you?”Ben shot her a look.He seemed to think about it.“If you could, why not?”“Bastard!”Looking at the woman all puffed up like a kitten, Ben’s mood inexplicably improved.“Relax.

    How could this man be so hateful?He knew she couldn’t do anything. He knew she had nothing left. Why was he still pressuring her to this point?Ben sneered.“If I decided to come after this child, what can you use against me? Your half-baked techniques? Or are you going to tell your father and have me beaten up like four years ago?”Nancy jolted.Endless cold raced down her spine.She looked at him icily. “You can certainly try.”Ben paused, then said, “But your father probably won’t treat me like this now, will he? After all, four years ago, I was just a poor kid with nothing, no match for his sweet daughter. But things are different now. I’m the heir to the Silvester family. Think about it. If he knew that his daughter was pregnant with my seed, wouldn’t he be so happy he carts you over in a horse-drawn carriage?”“Don’t go too far, Ben!”“I’m just telling the truth, aren’t I?”The two stood there as dead silence took over the still atmosphere.Nancy glared at him with eyes full of

    Nancy’s birthday was coming. Priscilla was thinking of her schedule and found that she couldn’t celebrate her birthday.Since Nancy went abroad, she had only been in occasional contact with Priscilla.She didn’t even contact her father and brother.Priscilla couldn’t raise her opinion. She could only care about Nancy as much as possible, lest she feel lonely abroad.On Nancy’s birthday, Priscilla called her at the stroke of midnight. The call was put through soon.Nancy’s delighted voice came, “Priscilla!”“Happy birthday!”“Thank you.”Priscilla couldn’t help being amused by Nancy, “To be honest, have you missed me?”“Of course, but you never come to see.”“Don’t worry. When my godson is born in half a month, Fredrick and I will come together.”“What if it’s a daughter?”“It’s better. Ann can keep her company and take care of her.”Nancy shook her head, “You’re lucky. To be honest, it is really hard to be pregnant with a child.”Priscilla’s smile froze on her lips.“Can you manage i
