THE COLD-HEARTED CEO'S REBORN LOVER Dancing Around Secrets
Everyone was already seated around the dining table for breakfast, the soft clink of cutlery and low murmurs filling the room. The chairs at the head remained empty Calvin and Cleopatra had yet to appear. Guinevere sat quietly among the others, her posture stiff as she toyed with the edge of her napkin. Her eyes were still swollen from crying the night before, faint redness lingering despite her effort to appear composed. She kept her gaze on her plate, avoiding the curious glances that occasionally flicked her way, while the uneasy silence made the absence of Calvin and Cleopatra feel even heavier.“Isn’t Cleopatra having breakfast?” Spencer asked quietly, leaning slightly toward Simon.Simon paused, studying him for a brief moment before replying, his tone calm but probing. “Why are you concerned about her?”Spencer shifted in his seat. “Umm… she left dinner early, and I didn’t see her at all after that last night.”Simon’s lips curved into a knowing smirk. “Stop beating around the

Cleopatra glanced at him briefly before giving a small nod.“Sure.”Carefully, almost reverently, Calvin drew her into his arms. His arm wrapped around her small frame, pulling her against his chest. The embrace was firm but gentle, protective rather than possessive.For several minutes, neither of them spoke.The quiet in the room felt heavy, yet comforting.Calvin rested his chin lightly against the top of her head as he held her, his hand slowly rubbing her back in soothing circles.“Cleo,” he murmured after a while, his voice low and steady. “You’re doing well. Better than you think.”His fingers tightened slightly around her shoulder.“You’re strong. Stronger than most people would be after everything you’ve been through.”He paused, choosing his words carefully.“Your parents would be proud of you.”A subtle tremor passed through her body.Calvin continued softly, his voice filled with quiet sincerity.“And I want you to understand something, the accident wasn’t your fault.

“Sure if you insist, fairy,” Calvin replied casually.He took the plate from Lila’s hands and set it neatly on the dining table before gesturing toward her seat. “You can go back and sit.”A ripple of quiet shock spread across the table.Everyone had witnessed it, the way Cleopatra had effortlessly taken control of the moment, bending the atmosphere to her will. Everyone except Katie, Guinevere, and Simon looked stunned.Guinevere’s lips curved into a thin smile.“I wonder why a guest would want to serve so desperately,” she said, her tone dripping with mock sweetness. “You should leave that for the maids. After all, a guest should remain a guest.”Lila’s brows knitted as she observed the hostility laced in Guinevere’s words.“Even if someone is a guest,” Lila said calmly, “there’s nothing wrong with lending a helping hand. It’s certainly better than sitting there wrapped in pride under the pretense of being a guest.”Guinevere scoffed, the sound sharp and dismissive.“Sometimes peopl

“Mr. Calvin,” she said, tilting her head slightly, letting the sunlight catch her hair, “it’s such an honor to meet you.”Her gaze lingered a fraction longer than necessary, a teasing sparkle in her eyes as she extended her hand.Calvin’s gaze slid past her, locked on Cleopatra as he shook Lila’s hand once, firm but distracted.“The honor’s mine,” he said smoothly, his attention clearly elsewhere.“Please excuse me.”Calvin said smoothly.Without another word, he walked down the aisle and settled beside Cleopatra, the subtle authority in his movements drawing attention without effort.“Why didn’t you text me? You’re still going on this trip,” he asked, his tone calm but edged with curiosity.“I never changed my mind about not coming,” Cleopatra replied, her voice sharp and cold, her gaze fixed straight ahead.Calvin’s hand brushed lightly against the armrest as he leaned slightly closer. “You should be resting, not traveling. I’ve arranged a professional therapist for you,” he said, hi

“Hello? Colder, aren’t you coming? We’re already settled in the jet,” Katie said over the phone, her voice carrying a playful impatience.Calvin stretched his leg onto the small stool before him, leaning back lazily in his chair. “So it’s already time to fly to Eban for the birthday celebration,” he replied coolly. “Go ahead and enjoy yourselves.”“But you promised you’d come,” Katie grumbled.“The project just started,” Calvin answered calmly. “I don’t think I can leave right now.”Before Katie could respond, another voice echoed faintly through the phone.“No, Cleo don’t put it there.”Calvin’s relaxed posture stiffened instantly.“What?” he asked sharply. “Cleo is going too?”“Yes,” Katie replied casually. “We’re all going.”There was a brief pause.Then Calvin spoke again, his tone suddenly decisive. “Tell the pilot to wait until I get there.”Without another word, he ended the call.Moments later, he strode down the hallway toward the guest room. Reaching the door, he knocked on

“That’s another common symptom,” she explained. “During an episode, the patient can experience flashbacks or emotional fragments from the past. They may relive moments tied to the trauma without realizing where they are.”Calvin’s jaw tightened.“So you’re saying,” he said slowly, “something at that photoshoot triggered her past.”“Yes.”Julia’s voice remained calm but firm.“The camera flash, the pressure, the environment any of those could have acted as a trigger. When that happens, the mind responds with panic, and the body follows.”A heavy silence settled in the room.Calvin’s hand slowly curled into a fist at his side as the weight of her words sank in.“And if this happens again?” he asked quietly.Julia looked directly at him.“Then she will need support, patience and someone who understands what she’s going through.”Calvin’s gaze slowly shifted toward Katie, his expression darkening with a mixture of disbelief and restrained frustration.“Do you really not know about this?”

“Now that’s the spirit, girl!” she exclaimed, her voice alive with excitement. “Getting into the spotlight won’t be easy. Start with backstage work for now, while I comb through potential brands. Securing even a few good ones will give your debut a real edge.”“Okay thanks Katie” Moments later, Cl

Guinevere staggered to her feet, her chest heaving as ragged breaths tore in and out of her lungs. “Why are you just standing there?!” she barked, her voice sharp and frantic. “Go catch her!”Cleopatra moved back again, but loose rocks tumbled into the sea below, forcing her to steady herself immed

Cleopatra dragged herself across the rain-soaked earth, mud and water clawing at her as her freezing clothes clung to her skin. Each movement tore a gasp from her throat, exhaustion crushing her with every inch she gained.She bit back the urge to cry out, forcing herself forward through sheer will

“Why am I tied up? Why can’t I see anything? How do I get this blindfold off? Where… where the hell am I?” Cleopatra’s voice cracked, raw and ragged, her panic clawing its way up her throat. Darkness pressed in from every side, her hands struggled uselessly against the bindings, and her heart raced
