THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX - GOOD CITIZEN
Rose took a breath and was ready to speak. The whole thing was actually quite simple. It was just because that night, back when Priscilla came back to the mansion, she challenged her authority in front of everyone in the family and walked away like nothing ever happened. Rose knew Priscilla would definitely go to the birthday party of Regina, but she also knew Priscilla would never do just whatever she asked obediently. So she decided to take a step further and solve this problem once and for good. Everyone knew what kind of man Shane had been. Priscilla would never get the chance to escape if she fell into his hands.As for Regina, then, she could continue being Mrs. Smith worry-free.More importantly, once they helped her keep her reputation intact, she would be able to keep her position in the entertainment industry.And that meant, she could star in movies and dramas, and make money as she ever did, and Famous Entertainment, which just signed a contract with her, could not s

The black Rolls-Royce sped down the highway in the early morning.Inside the car, Priscilla pressed her lips and smiled at the man sitting next to her.Starred by her, Frederick felt a little bit uncomfortable and gave a clear cough.With that, he suddenly reached out and pushed her face over.Priscilla chuckled and said. “Mr. Lincoln, thank you for helping me today. I’ll be sure to repay you when I get the chance.”Frederick’s brows knitted slightly and he turned his head to look at her “What did you just call me?” Priscilla’s smile faltered.A touch of coldness crossed under Frederick’s eye. “Mrs. Lincoln, do you need me to teach you how to address your husband?” Priscilla fell silent.She shook her head hurriedly “No.”“Well, call me now,” Frederick said. Priscilla was a bit embarrassed, “Now? It’s quite embarrassing, isn’t it?”Driving the car, David hurriedly said, “Ma’am, I’m actually deaf, I can’t hear you.”Priscilla fell silent again.Frederick gave a cold glance at him an

Frederick led Priscilla to the row of servants and said in a deep voice, ‘My wife. From now on you should all call her Mrs. Lincoln formally, and you must respect her as much as you respect me, understand?”The servants answered in unison, “Yes, Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln! “Only then did Frederick nod in satisfaction. After that, he held Priscilla’s hand and led her inside.Priscilla was a bit confused.Until now she didn’t have any idea as to how she had followed this man to the Lincoln Mansion.When she entered the bedroom, she finally understood what had happened and hurriedly pulled him back.“Uh, I, I came here …”“From now on, you will live here.” He looked at her seriously. Priscilla’s heart stuttered.It seemed that only at this time did she truly believe that when he said marriage, he wasn’t joking and he was pretty serious.Frederick raised his hand to summon a maid and said in a deep voice, “Wilma, please show Mrs. Lincoln around the mansion.”The maid called Wilma hurriedly and

Priscilla was still a little uncomfortable with the new environment and once she thought of how this man had also used the bathroom just now, she felt so uncomfortable even just going in again. She was too embarrassed to propose to use the guest bath so she could only shake her head. “ Then help me wipe my hair?” He said and handed the towel over to her. Priscilla was stunned but didn’t refuse. After taking the towel from him and waiting for him to sit on the sofa, she pressed the towel against his hair and gently wiped off the water on the hair. His hair was very short but not particularly hard to clean. Her fingertips moving through his hair gave her a strange feeling. Priscilla tried to restrain herself from thinking too much since she had accepted the fact that she was married to this man and actually enjoyed the benefits he brought to her, she had to get used to living with him.After a while, the hair was half dry and Frederick took the hair dryer and dried out the hair to comple

Fredrick did use extraordinary means to threaten her. Thinking of this, Priscila rubbed her chin thoughtfully. She knew that the reason Fredrick had to record and release such videos was only because a lot of people had seen her and Shane get involved last night.Although he appeared later and saved her but most people still did not know anything about her relationship with Shane. The incident five years ago had blemished Priscilla’s reputation in the city. If there was such an incident, then her reputation would be completely ruined.She would not only be considered a theft, but also a filthy woman who has cheated on her boyfriend. At that time, she would by no means be able to explain everything.She just could not change what people might think of her but Fredrick apparently has already known Rose’s tricks so they forced her to confess the nasty things she did and then recorded it to expose her conspiracy.As it turned out, the result was quite good. Now almost every one online wer

After Priscilla called Fredrick, she also gave Rose a call. The Waals’ family was now enveloped in an awkward atmosphere. Ryan has been called back by his father so he was not there. Her father Paul has also been sent on a business trip by Rose on the day of Regina’s Birthday. So in the living room sat Rose, Regina and her mother Katherine. There was silence in the room and none of them spoke. Therefore, when the phone rang, it seemed particularly abrupt and sharp.Rose impatiently cast a glance at the butler, who hurriedly went over to pick it up. A few seconds later, he trotted back and whispered, “Ma’am, it’s Miss Priscilla.” Rose smiled coldly and said, “How dare she even call back?”The butler lowered his head and didn’t dare to speak. Regina spoke timidly, “Grandma, could it be that Priscilla has realized she went too far this time around and called to apologize?”Katherine cursed angrily, “she thinks an apology will be the end of it? The company has lost so much, can she affor
Huling Na-update : 2024-09-19THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE - WHAT A FUNNY MAN
The next day at noon, Priscilla did meet John Pitt.Frederick had asked David to book a private room in the high-end restaurant near the Lincoln group and invited him to have lunch with him, so that he could introduce the two of them to each other.When they arrived, John was already there.When the two of them came in, John quickly got up and greeted Fredrick with a smile. “My dear cousin, here you are?”Seeing the woman who was behind Frederick and walking with him, he was a little bit surprised.Frederick had indeed told him before that he would introduce someone to him today, and that the PR work will be left to this person later after they meet.But how could he imagine that it was actually a woman!Just everybody knew, his cousin would never get close to a woman!It was a miracle that he could bring a woman here today!His eyes immediately became different and he even squeezed his eyes towards Frederick ambiguously. Frederick pretended that he had seen nothing.After the th

John flinched and hurriedly zipped his fingers across his mouth and sat quietly.Fredrick let out a snort.After a while, John could no longer hold back his curiosity and said to the two in front of him, “ Bro, when did you get married? How come I did not know this at all?”Fredrick didn’t even bother to look at him but said, “You won’t think I have to report to you first when I get married, will you?”John gave an awkward smile, “But you see, our grandfather might…”Fredrick eyes darkened and John immediately said nothing more.Naturally, Priscilla won’t comment on such a thing either.After all, the situation between her and Fredrick had been quite special. She was not ready to meet the other members of the Lincoln’s family yet. However, there was no way she could tell this to John.So she could only keep silent.Seeing that they were all being quiet, John sure had doubts in his head but he knew better than to ask more questions.Soon, the dishes were served and after they finished

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
THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWENTY – THE TRUTH REVEALED
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?”Nanc
THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & NINETEEN – NANCY’S RETURN
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.
THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & EIGHTEEN – LIVING TOGETHER
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
THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & SEVENTEEN – SURPRISE VISIT
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
THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & SIXTEEN – I DON’T CARE ABOUT ANYONE BUT YOU
She knew full well what kind of person Fredrick was.He looked cold, but in reality, if he acknowledged someone as one of his people, he usually took their business personally instead of being so cool about it.Frederick looked at her deeply.“Do you still remember what I told you when you asked me about Hadassah?”Priscilla started.She thought about it and realized.“Is it…”“Yes, I’m just that selfish. I don’t want someone to come back and disturb our little world, and I don’t want any trouble. So I don’t care whether we can find that child or not.”Priscilla had to laugh.“Why are you like this? They’re raising such a fuss while you’re here talking behind their back.”Fredrick leant over, smiling as he wrapped an arm around her waist.He snuggled in close to her face, the tips of their noses touching.“Yes, that’s how I am. I don’t care about anything other than you.”“Darling…”Priscilla hadn’t let it go yet, but her lips were already being sealed by his in another entangling kis
THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & FIFTEEN – STRANGE STARE
The restaurant was high-end for Milton, but it was not good enough.And the standards that William seemed to have made it quite clear that he wasn’t the type of person who’d eat at a place like this.He’d come today either because he was in a hurry or because something special had attracted him.Priscilla was curious about it, but they didn’t know each other too well, so she didn’t ask about it.The two went into the restaurant, chatting as they ate. The atmosphere was quite friendly.Still, she didn’t know if she was imagining it or not, but she felt that the way William looked at her wasn’t quite right.The passion he was showing wasn’t like someone who’d only met her once or twice at all.Priscilla put herself on guard as she asked, “Are you in the city for business, Mr. Curtis?”William replied, “I’m looking for a person.”“Oh? May I ask who you’re looking for?”William paused, then chuckled, “An old friend’s child.”At that, he didn’t continue. Seeing that he wasn’t willing to s
THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & FOURTEEN – RYAN SECRET
In the past, the Waals family was headed by Rose and Katherine, so to get Rose on your side, you pulled Regina to your side, only to get their family into the Smith family. Now that Rose’s in trouble, Regina and Katherine are facing charges, you’re afraid that it’ll affect you or the Smith family, so you’re trying to give her the boot and come back to me. Do you think everyone’s as stupid as her, Ryan? That they’ll just stand by and become your plaything after you feed them your lies?”Ryan’s expression grew ugly.“What are you saying? Am I such a person in your mind? I’ll admit that things aren’t good between me and Regina right now, but things hadn’t been going well even before this mess. I’m not trying to give a coup de grace here!”Priscilla had to laugh at his audacity. “You’re not trying to give a coup de grâce? You’re serious, Ryan Smith! Do you even believe your own words? I’m telling you, I would have respected you more if you took responsibility and still stood with her, but
