EMILY

Although I was relieved that Bryan was alive, the relief did not erase my own problem. It only pushed it to the side for a while. Dad had still not changed his mind about the merger. Every time I thought about it, my chest tightened. It felt like a decision already made without my consent, like I was simply expected to smile and go along with it.

I had a strong feeling Catherine would agree. After all, Ceaser was her high school sweetheart. They had history. Memories. Something real to fa

    EMILYIf looks could leave bruises, my skin would have been covered in them already.Chris hadn’t stopped glaring at me since we left the party. The tension inside the car was thick enough to choke on, and every time I turned slightly in my seat, I could feel his eyes on me.“Did you really enjoy his touch that much?” he asked suddenly, his voice low and sharp.I blinked at him, stunned. “What?”“The way Xander was touching you.” His jaw tightened. “You seemed pretty comfortable with it.”Anger sparked inside me almost immediately. “Whose touch?” I asked, even though I already knew exactly who he meant.Chris only dragged in a breath and gripped the steering wheel harder before speeding onto the road again.And when I said speeding, I meant it.The car shot forward so fast my stomach twisted. Streetlights blurred past the windows while the engine roared beneath us. My fingers instinctively curled around the edge of my seat.“Chris, slow down.”He ignored me.“Chris!”Still nothing.At

  • TRAPPED BY MR CEO TO BE HIS FIANCÉE    OUT ON A DATE

    SARAH The rest of the day dragged slowly, painfully slowly. The house felt too quiet, and the more I sat alone with my thoughts, the more irritated I became. Donald had gone out hours ago, and for some reason I couldn't stop thinking that he had gone to see Zoey. The thought annoyed me more than it should have. I tossed my phone onto the bed and scoffed at myself. Why did I even care? It wasn't my business. Still, every time I imagined him with her, laughing and acting all soft, my mood worsened. My phone suddenly rang, interrupting my thoughts. I picked it up and checked the caller ID. Felix. A smile found its way to my lips before I could stop it. I answered the call. “Hi, beauty,” he said warmly. “Good afternoon,” I replied, smiling as I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. “Hope you didn't forget today.” For a second, my mind went blank. Then it hit me. The date. “Oh, of course not,” I quickly replied. “I remember perfectly.” Just then, the door to my room burst open

  • TRAPPED BY MR CEO TO BE HIS FIANCÉE    MEETING MY IDOL

    EMILYI wanted to ask him why he had been acting like some grumpy guard dog all evening, but before I could even bring it up, Chris pulled over in front of a bar. The building itself looked expensive, the kind of place you only see in movies. Soft golden lights glowed around the entrance, and the music vibrating through the walls already sounded alive from outside.Chris stepped out first, fixing his jacket before pulling two tickets from the inner pocket. Security immediately let us in without any questions.The moment we walked inside, I almost froze.The place was packed.Not just crowded, but completely overflowing with people laughing, dancing, and shouting over the music. The lights flashed in different colors across the room while waiters moved around with trays of drinks. For a second, I wondered what exactly they were celebrating because this was way bigger than an ordinary party.Then we were led upstairs to the VIP section, and honestly, it felt like entering another world e

  • TRAPPED BY MR CEO TO BE HIS FIANCÉE    LEMON AND ROSES

    EMILYI stepped out to the beach, the cool evening breeze brushing softly against my skin. The sound of the waves crashing against the shore filled the air, but Chris was nowhere in sight. I frowned slightly as my eyes searched around.Where was he?“Missing me already?”His deep voice came from behind me, making me turn sharply.Chris stood a few steps away, hands tucked casually into his pockets. The first few buttons of his shirt were undone, exposing a part of his chest, while the sleeves were rolled up to his elbows. The ocean breeze played with his dark hair, and somehow, with the fading sunset behind him, he looked unreal.My throat went dry instantly.I quickly looked away before he noticed the effect he had on me.“I wasn’t looking for you,” I muttered. “I just wanted to check the beach.”He nodded slowly, but the corner of his lips lifted with clear sarcasm.“I didn’t say you were.”I bit my lower lip and looked away again. Great. My face felt hot already, and I knew I was bl

  • TRAPPED BY MR CEO TO BE HIS FIANCÉE    NOT GONNA MAKE IT ALIVE

    CATHERINEI woke up to the same ceiling I had been staring at for the past two days, and for a moment I just lay there, trying to make sense of it all. Nothing had changed. The same quiet room, the same soft sheets, the same heavy silence pressing down on me. It didn’t feel real, like I had somehow stepped into someone else’s life and gotten stuck there. I still couldn’t understand why I had been taken. There was no explanation, no warning, nothing that made it make sense.The room itself didn’t look like the kind of place you would keep someone against their will. It was too neat, too expensive, too carefully arranged. Everything about it felt intentional, like whoever owned this place had money and taste. That alone confused me even more. If they wanted me dead, why go through all this effort? Why keep me here, feeding me, giving me clean clothes, making sure I was comfortable?I pushed myself up and sat on the bed, wrapping my arms around myself. My mind drifted to Emily. I hadn’t

    SARAHWhen I got home, the familiar scent of lavender and honey welcomed me, a comforting contrast to the chaotic energy of the college campus. The house felt unusually quiet, and when I stepped into the sitting room, I realized no one was around. The silence was peaceful, though it made the space

    BRYANAs I walked into the board meeting hall, the first thing that greeted me was silence. Every single face turned toward me at once. The shock on them was almost comical. Mouths slightly open. Eyes widened. Hands frozen halfway to their microphones.Danford looked the worst. The color drained fr

    CALIThe moment we returned from the meeting, I went straight to my room. I did not stop to talk to anyone. I did not even glance at the maids who greeted me softly as I passed. My body felt heavy, not just from standing but from everything that had happened. The tension, the silence, the way the a

    SARAHI tried to steady my breathing, but it felt impossible. The air around me seemed too thick, too heavy to pull into my lungs. Nothing made sense anymore. Nothing. The woman I knew as Mum had a whole family. A history. A life that had nothing to do with the quiet countryside story she fed me fo
