Thirdie stepped out of the hotel lobby into the thick Manila air, the night alive with the hum of traffic and the glow of neon signs. His driver immediately opened the door to his car…. a sleek, black luxury vehicle with the kind of plate number that spoke not just of wealth, but of power. It was the kind of car that made people turn their heads, whispering in recognition of who owned it. Yet tonight, Thirdie barely noticed.

He sank into the leather seat, closing his eyes for a moment, his chest

  • The CEO's Forbidden Wife   Chapter 99:The Woman Beside Mr. Stone

    The moment they stepped into the grand hall, the hum of conversation softened for a heartbeat before picking up again, this time, directed straight toward Thirdie. Business partners, investors, and influential figures from various industries immediately surrounded him, eager to exchange greetings, discuss potential collaborations, and pitch upcoming projects. Names were exchanged, hands were shaken, and talk of market trends and future investments filled the air.Kathalina stood quietly beside him at first, listening attentively and offering a polite smile whenever appropriate. But as the discussions delved deeper into complex terms and company strategies she knew little about, she gradually felt herself fading into the background. After a few minutes, she leaned slightly toward Thirdie and whispered a soft excuse, then quietly stepped away from the group, gliding gracefully toward the more open space of the hall.Even as he continued speaking with the men in front of him, answering q

  • The CEO's Forbidden Wife   Chapter 98: Under the Flashing Lights

    At the venue, the atmosphere was already busy and lively as everyone rushed to make sure everything was perfect before the gala officially started. Staff members moved back and forth carrying equipment, adjusting lights, arranging tables, and checking the final details of the runway setup.Steve was already walking around nonstop with a tablet in one hand while giving instructions left and right.“Check the lighting near the center stage again,” he ordered one of the staff members seriously. “I don’t want any shadows during the main walk.”“Yes, sir!”He turned toward another employee immediately after. “And make sure the guest list at the entrance is double-checked. No unauthorized people are allowed inside tonight.”Meanwhile, Erica was standing near the backstage area with the models, her hands on her waist while trying to control the chaos around her.“No, no, no….keep your shoulders straight!” Erica told one of the younger models dramatically while fixing the girl’s posture herse

  • The CEO's Forbidden Wife   Chapter 97: Hidden Colors

    Kathalina nodded and stepped into the bedroom to change. Once she slipped into the gown, she carefully tried to reach the zipper at the back, but couldn’t quite manage it. After a moment of hesitation, she stepped back out and quietly asked one of the artists for help.When she turned around again. The room fell completely silent.All three women froze, their eyes widening in shock as they looked at her.The gown fit her perfectly, as if it had been made only for her enhancing her elegance, posture, and presence in a way that made her look almost unreal.“This dress…” one of them finally whispered in disbelief. “It’s by Layla… the famous designer!”She took a small step closer, still staring in awe.“Wait… you’re so lucky, Miss Kathalina. You’re wearing Layla’s gown. She designed and made this dress herself.”Kathalina’s gaze flickered slightly, but she didn’t react. They didn’t know it was her, and she chose not to correct them.Instead, she simply looked at herself in the mirror aga

  • The CEO's Forbidden Wife   Chapter 96: Stepping Into the Light

    Kathalina had just finished showering when she glanced at the wall clock inside the suite. It was already five in the afternoon. Earlier, after everyone left, she and Thirdie had ended up falling asleep together from exhaustion. When she woke up, it was already past four, which immediately forced her to rush into the bathroom to prepare for the gala later that night.Now, standing in the quiet room with her damp hair falling over her shoulders, she lightly dried her hands while staring at the clock again, still feeling slightly dazed from everything that had happened in the last twenty-four hours.Before she could even think further, a knock suddenly echoed through the suite.Kathalina blinked and instinctively looked around for Thirdie, but he was nowhere to be found. Maybe he stepped out for a while.Another knock came.Slowly, she walked toward the door and opened it, only to see three women standing outside carrying several makeup cases and garment bags. One of them carefully held

    Steve crossed his arms while shaking his head lightly, finally looking a little more relaxed now that everything was over. “You seriously have no idea how chaotic everything became last night,” he muttered, still sounding exhausted from everything that had happened.Leon let out a long sigh beside him before glancing at Kathalina. “Your husband almost destroyed an entire mountain trying to find you.”Jeff immediately nodded with a completely serious expression. “That’s true, Miss. Sir was terrifying last night.”Thirdie shot all three of them a cold warning look.“Enough.”But instead of stopping, Erica suddenly narrowed her eyes suspiciously while looking back and forth between Kathalina and Thirdie. The longer she stared, the more suspicious her expression became.“Wait…” she said slowly. “Why do both of you look… different?”Kathalina instantly froze, and within seconds her face turned completely red from embarrassment.Meanwhile, Thirdie remained perfectly calm beside her, leaning

  • The CEO's Forbidden Wife   Chapter 94: The Walls Between Us

    Kathalina froze completely. For a moment, she wanted to ask him why. But in the end, she chose not to.Her thoughts were already in chaos, her emotions too tangled to fully process everything he had just confessed to her.Thirdie held her gaze steadily, his voice lower now, as if each word carried something he had kept buried for too long.“I asked you to sign the papers,” he admitted quietly, “but after Jeff gave them to me for processing…” He paused, exhaling slowly. “I couldn’t do it.”Kathalina felt her breath catch. She didn’t even realize she was holding it.“Because no matter how much I tried to convince myself it was the right thing to do…” he continued, his eyes darkening with something raw and honest, “I never wanted to lose you completely.”The silence between them deepened. Even the wind outside felt distant, like the world had softened just for this moment.“You’re the only woman I’ll ever love in this life, Kath,” he said at last.Kathalina’s chest tightened painfully. Sh

    Then his jaw tightened, and the light in his eyes dimmed. Someone had dared to steal from him and thought they could get away with it.“Jeff,” Thirdie said, his voice hard and cold like steel. “Tell Dubai I want everyone with system access on standby. When I call, no one blinks.”“Yes, sir.”“And J

    He pushed the glass doors open and walked in, his presence like a silent storm that no one could stop. Jeff followed him, throwing her a brief, sympathetic glance.Agnes stood frozen for a heartbeat. She tightened her grip on the paper bag and forced a smile she didn’t feel.“He must be busy,” she

    The moment the boardroom door shut behind him, Thirdie didn’t look back. He walked down the hallway with that same quiet, heavy presence that made people step out of his way without a word.Inside his office, the air was cooler and quieter. Jeff’s voice was already filtering through the glass walls

    As they drove, the soft hum of the engine filled the silence. The road stretched smoothly ahead, lined with trees that swayed gently in the morning breeze. Kathalina leaned her head against the window, watching the blur of the passing streets.Her mind drifted back to Paris, to the years she spent
