THE CEO'S WIFE CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWO – PANICKED
Terry nodded, “Alright, I’ll get down to this thing first. Be careful and don’t make any other trouble. To stay away from trouble, you’d better stay at home. Wait for good news.”Regina heaved a sigh of relief after hearing that. She nodded, “I see. Thank you.”After Terry left, Ryan called Regina.Regina looked at the name on the screen with a cold gaze.They’d broken up. It would be good if he didn’t take her as an enemy. How could he love her as before?However, looking at the name, she couldn’t help but feel sorrow and pain as if some part of her heart had been scooped out brutally. She took a deep breath and answered the phone.Ryan’s voice was gloomy.“Did you do that?”Regina reluctantly tugged at her lips and put on a cold smile. “Don’t you know that long ago? I got the drugs from your man. Don’t tell me he gave me the drugs without your consent.”Ryan said in a cold voice, “You bribed my assistants, didn’t you? I turned a blind eye to it and didn’t want to dispute with you. N

Rose sat there, her expression dark, still trying to recover from the shock of the news.Katherine looked worried as her eyes darted around the room. She tried to say something, but after several attempts, she couldn’t muster the courage to get it out.This time, that was a crime.The good thing was that Regina had now been married off, which meant that many things could be pushed off her. If the Smith family still involved her in the end, he didn’t know how much backlash he would have to deal with.Thinking of that, she shot a resentful glare at Regina.Regina hadn’t expected her to take such an attitude. Her temper flared, clogging her throat. She felt like she had a volcano building in her chest, ready to erupt.After a long while, Rose spoke.“Is there any other evidence than that driver of yours?”Regina shook her head. “None, I’m sure of it. I’ve taken care of the four other people in that cellar in secret. I’d also given that driver enough money to make a run for it after the j

Regina tried to unearth Priscilla wherever she was.Priscilla had already received the news.After all, since the driver had exposed it, she’d guessed that Regina would probably be coming for her.She couldn’t stay in the Lincoln household. Even though Regina wasn’t bold enough to intrude here directly, this was too big of a target to stay undetected.Priscilla was considering where she could hide when Ariana called.“What are you up to now, Priscilla? How are you holding up?”Old Mrs. Lincoln had called Fredrick’s phone and told her to pick up.Seemed like Fredrick was afraid the old woman and the child would get worried, so he’d told them about the situation beforehand.Priscilla replied hurriedly, “I’m fine, Grandma, I’m at home. What about you? How have you been lately?”“I’m doing well, but Ann misses you and keeps raising a ruckus about seeing you. If you’re free someday, I can take her over to play with you for a couple of days?”“That’s…”Priscilla was in a bad spot.There was

While Ann thought her sweet thoughts to herself, Priscilla didn’t know how she felt, and only felt her heart hurt the more she looked at the girl’s innocent bearing.The two hugged for a while and separated. Worried she would get hungry, Priscilla made to feed her, but Frederick stopped her.The man’s face was stern. “Don’t pamper her. Let her eat herself.”Priscilla jolted, about to say that the child was still young.But Ann took up her spoon herself and helped herself to a mouthful.As she chewed with puffy cheeks, she said, “I’m grown-up now, Mommy. I can eat myself, so I don’t need someone to feed me now.”At that, Priscilla had to laugh. Warmth surging into her chest, she tapped Ann lightly on the nose.“All right. Good girl, Ann.”Ann smiled happily.Ariana looked at the comfy scene and smiled.After the meal, the family all retired to their rooms.Ann started whining for Priscilla to tell her a story, so she took her to her bedroom.Fredrick had come out in a hurry this time,

“You mean you don’t know where she is?”“Of course! If I’d known, would I still be stuck here?”“You’re lying! You kidnapped her!”“Yes, that’s right, I kidnapped her, but she escaped midway. What? You’ve been thinking of her so much, but she didn’t tell you how to contact her or where to find her? Hah! Look at what a joke you are! You’re here overthinking everything while she’s off having a great time somewhere! I’d always thought I was the dumb one, but turns out you’re an even bigger moron!”At her mockery, Ryan’s handsome face turned an array of different colours.His clenched fist crackled, knuckles white from exertion.Finally, he sucked in a deep breath and stood.Looking at the weeping, laughing woman whose body had gone slack, Ryan’s gaze had a bit of disgust.“You’re mad!” With that, he went out without a trace of longing.In the end, Ryan didn’t end up bailing Regina out.Terry didn’t know what was going on, but she could see that something wasn’t quite right between the tw

Over the line, Priscilla frowned.She didn’t know why this old woman thought that she could still speak to her on such a pedestal after so much had happened.She scoffed.“Looks like you still haven’t considered who has the advantage here, taking such a tone… It’s a little uncomfortable to hear. How about we chat another time?”Rose blinked.Only then did she realize that it’d been difficult even getting this call today. She couldn’t let this chance slip.So she reined in her temper, refined her manners, and said, “Fine, we’ll leave those words. Talk! Why did you frame Regina? And how would we get you to show your face? Don’t think I don’t know that you haven’t gone missing at all. You’ve just hidden yourself away to ruin my granddaughter?!”Priscilla’s face fell, her gaze dimming.My granddaughter?A long time ago, she’d been their granddaughter too.Memories rushed in like a tide. She didn’t understand it. Rose and Katherine had been so good to her before. Their family lives togethe

Fredrick went to have a video meeting, and Priscilla stood on the balcony.Hadassah finally encouraged herself and walked to Priscilla.“Priscilla.”Priscilla turned around and saw her. Then she smiled.“Miss Curtis, do you also come here to take a fresh breath?”“Well, it’s a little stuffy in the room. I just came out and stood for a while.”Priscilla hinted to her to be free and move aside.Hadassah walked up to Priscilla and leaned against the white railing like her.“This afternoon, Mrs. Lincoln told me something about you, so I finally understand why you hide on this island and don’t want anyone to find you. But don’t worry. I have promised her that I won’t tell anyone.”There was no expression on Priscilla’s face. She was still lazy and cozy, without any gratitude or panic.“Really, okay.”Hadassah was stunned.In the face of Priscilla’s calmness, she always felt powerless as if her fists were hitting a sponge.Hadassah had been well-educated since she was a child, so she couldn

Maybe it didn’t. She was not convicted, but temporarily detained.But she still felt nervous.After all, Rose had just told her to stay in the police station, and they would find a way to save her.But she ran out just now. No matter what, it would be difficult to make an explanation.Finally, Regina began to feel scared. Just now, she ran out of instinct. Now she realized that even if it didn’t mean that she had broken the prison, it was no different from breaking it!What should she do?Got back?No, No. She couldn’t explain it if she went back.She closed her eyes for a while, only to feel the cold wind blowing her temples with throbbing pain, and her mind was more like a mess, unable to figure out a clue.Just then, the phone rang.She was stunned. She picked up the phone and saw a message.Her heart skipped a beat, and her fingertips trembled slightly. She clicked on it.It was a photo of a woman by the sea. In the photo, the woman in a long beach dress was smiling in the sunshin

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
