Eric Harrington, upon arriving at the company, once again monopolized attention, becoming the center of all curious glances. He sighed. The spotlight was on him, the curious looks and muffled sighs of women whispering among themselves about how handsome their boss was, how truly perfect he looked every morning in his suits and flawless attire.

"He's too handsome. Too bad he's already married," one commented with a tone of resignation.

"As if he'd ever pay attention to you," retorted another, mo

  • The CEO's Rejected Wife's Twins   CHAPTER 10

    Vivian paced back and forth in the room, her footsteps echoing in the tense silence. Her husband, Bruno, was aware of how worried his wife was after everything that had happened. He approached Vivian and tried to calm her down, to soothe that intense green gaze of hers.The woman, her eyes filled with anger and sadness, looked into Bruno's honey-colored eyes."Don't even tell me to calm down because I can't do it!" she exclaimed, her voice barely contained. "You don't know how disappointed and sad I am about everything that happened. I didn't think our daughter would be capable of doing something like that; I really didn't think she would sleep with anyone and end up making us a laughingstock. Aren't our names and surnames, and even our reputation, stained before the Harrington family? That's too shameful! I don't even know how we're going to get out of this without consequences."Bruno tried to put a positive spin on the situation, looking for a glimmer of hope in the storm."Wife, I

    Eric Harrington, upon arriving at the company, once again monopolized attention, becoming the center of all curious glances. He sighed. The spotlight was on him, the curious looks and muffled sighs of women whispering among themselves about how handsome their boss was, how truly perfect he looked every morning in his suits and flawless attire."He's too handsome. Too bad he's already married," one commented with a tone of resignation."As if he'd ever pay attention to you," retorted another, more pragmatic. "Anyway, even if he were single, he wouldn't even glance your way. We're inferior next to that man, let's be honest, it's our sad reality.""I never lose hope," the dreamer said, sighing. "You never know what might happen in our lives. So don't be so pessimistic."The other woman rolled her eyes. Eric, oblivious to the gossiping, walked toward one of the elevators—the one only he and personnel authorized by him, like his secretary or whoever he pleased, could use. It was almost an

    Eric slowly opened his eyes that morning, feeling gripped by a terrible headache throbbing at his temples. At that moment, he regretted drinking so much, but it was too late. There was nothing left to do except ease that pain. With a groan, he got out of bed and headed to the kitchen. He opened the fridge and pulled out an isotonic drink, one of those promising to rehydrate the body and replenish electrolytes. He drank it in one gulp, hoping it would work its magic.He headed to the bathroom, brushing his teeth with excessive force as if wanting to erase any trace of the previous night. He took a cold shower that woke him up a bit and got ready for the day. Although he was truly fatigued and had no mood to go to work or do anything productive, he couldn't afford to miss it. So he simply forced himself to do what had to be done: fulfill his duty.He remembered the night before, the conversation he had with his lawyer. Or rather, the order he had given him. Mr. Liam Johnson had limited

    The conversation about Aitana had brought a pang of pain to the atmosphere, a grim reminder of the tragedy that united them. Bianca, feeling the discomfort, decided to divert the attention."Steven, I don't know if it's a mistake to bring her up, but I really want to know how you've been since my sister's death. I suppose it hasn't been easy for you at all; I can't imagine how complicated it must be."At that moment, Steven's expression changed, as if the words had struck him, affecting him deeply. It was evident that he missed Aitana terribly."I won't deny, Bianca, that there are nights when I simply can't handle the pain," he murmured, his voice steeped in profound melancholy. "Every time I go to bed, I can't stop thinking about what happened to her. I wish I could turn back time and be with her again, and tell her everything I couldn't. I feel like the moments we shared together weren't enough to express all my affection and love. Still, I suppose I should value everything I was a

    In Steven's quiet apartment, Bianca tried to drown out the whirlwind of thoughts besieging her. Eric's cruelty, her innocence, the truth he refused to believe... everything blended into an amalgam of pain and frustration. How could she make him understand if he didn't even remember that night?And even if she tried, she knew Eric would brand her a liar, accuse her of making excuses, of trying to defend herself and lying all over again.No, it wasn't worth it. The thought of repeating the same story, of facing the same disbelief, was too heavy a burden for her already exhausted soul. She felt weighed down by so many thoughts at once, eclipsing the cruel way Eric had treated her.She no longer deserved to have been treated that way—least of all when she was innocent, when she was telling the truth. But she also put herself in his shoes and wondered how she could blame him when he didn't even remember the night they had spent together.Steven's apartment was a haven of order and good tas

    News of Bianca's pregnancy spread like wildfire, reaching Vivian first. It wasn't long before the door of the luxury apartment flew open, revealing Vivian's furious figure, with Bruno hot on her heels wearing an expression of anguish. Bianca was standing in the living room, fear a cold knot in her stomach, when Vivian spotted her. "You! Utter disgrace!" Vivian screamed, and before Bianca could react, a slap rang through the silence of the apartment. The impact jerked Bianca's head to the side, the sting on her cheek paling against the burning humiliation. "Whore! Slut! Ruining what little dignity we had left!" Right at that moment, as if fate took pleasure in the drama, the doorbell rang insistently. The door swung open, and George and Jackeline Harrington walked in, their faces impassive, though their eyes held a cold expectation. Eric must have informed them. They had come to corroborate the humiliating truth. Shame burned through Bianca, mixing with impotent rage. How could the
