Ree and Mary headed into a nearby cafe.They both sat facing each other, the hum of conversation around them fading into the background.

A waiter walked up with a polite smile.

“Greetings, my ladies. Would you like to make any orders?”

They returned his smile.

“I would like plain water, please,” Mary said.

“I’ll have a cup of tea,” Ree added.

The waiter nodded, jotting down their orders on a small notepad.

“I’ll be right back.”

The two girls nodded.

After the waiter walked away, Mary’s smile fa

He bowed his head respectfully and greeted them.“Young Master, Young Miss, welcome back.”“Thank you, Butler Brooks,” Mary replied with a gentle smile.“How are you feeling, Young Miss?”“I am very well, thank you,” Mary said, her smile bright and reassuring.Alexander’s phone suddenly began ringing in his pocket. He pulled it out and glanced at the screen.

Then he headed upstairs.When he entered the bedroom, he saw Mary already lying on the bed. She had drifted off

  • The Ceo's Arranged Bride    Chapter 48: Confession

    Alexander glared daggers at Mary as she looked at him, speechless. "I... I want to go inside." Alexander didn't say a word. He remained where he was, not moving at all. Mary shifted under his gaze. She rubbed her arms together and lowered her head. “You know…” she began, her voice low. “I should be the one angry with you… but somehow it feels like you’re the one upset with me.” Alexander remained quiet, but his gaze softened as he looked at the sad girl he was towering over. "At first, I didn't want to come home because you weren't here. I felt sick staying here alone." "You aren't alone. You have the maids and Butler Brooks." "And you?" Mary said softly. "What about you?" "They are here, but you aren't." She drew in a breath before continuing. "I can understand that our marriage started out as a contract where both parties gain something from it. But I never benefited from anything because I wasn't the one who wanted this marriage." "My dad needed this marriage for h

The air grew heavy as Grandpa Lipton approached where Alexander stood.Alexander didn’t look bothered. He stood there calmly, as if nothing had happened.Grandpa Lipton trembled with anger when he saw the broken sculpture scattered across the floor.His fingers tightened around his walking stick. His face flushed red as he pointed at Alexander."W…what have you done?""You rascal!"He raised his cane to strike Alexander.The entire family gasped in shock when Alexander caught the cane midair.His grip was firm."I am not here for drama," Alexander said c

  • The Ceo's Arranged Bride    Chapter 46: Fury

    The maid flinched, her hands trembling as she clutched the edge of her dress, bowing her head."It's my fault, sir.I shouldn't have given the young miss the phone when I heard a little girl calling her to her dad."She spoke in a shaky voice.Alexander furrowed his brows."What are you talking about?" he asked, his voice sharp.He turned around, his fists tightening at his sides."Where is Butler Brooks?"His voice rose slightly this time.The maid's legs trembled beneath her.The other maids shrank back, exchanging nervous glances as they hid behind one another.Just then, Butler Brooks hurried into the living room after hearing the commotion.The moment he stepped inside, he saw Alexander standing there, fury radiating from him like heat.He immediately bowed."Young master, you are back."Alexander turned to him, his eyes dark and unreadable."You had only one task, and yet you failed miserably."Butler Brooks lowered his head deeply."I am sorry, young master.The young miss sudd

  • The Ceo's Arranged Bride    Chapter 45 : Missed Call

    Alexander sat in the car, his brows furrowed as he tried calling Mary again. No one picked up. His grip tightened around the phone. He closed his eyes and drew in a slow breath. “Drive faster,” he ordered, his voice cold and low. “Yes, boss.” David responded immediately and increased the speed of the car. A few minutes later, they arrived at the airport. Alexander entered through a private back entrance alongside his assistant. They quickly checked in and boarded the plane back to Philly that same night. The next morning, Barbara arrived at the hospital very early to deliver breakfast to Mary. When she stepped into the ward, she saw Mary sitting upright on the hospital bed, watching the television. The moment Mary spotted Barbara, she switched off the TV and rose to welcome her with a bright smile. Barbara smiled. “I can see you are getting better.” Mary nodded eagerly. “I told you I would be fine. I just needed some rest, that’s all.” “Well, I’m glad you’re alright,”

    After a few rings, the call finally connected.“Hello, this is Assistant David speaking.”Butler Brooks had been relieved when the call went through, but his excitement quickly faded when he realized it wasn't the person he expected on the line.He cleared his throat. "Assistant David, could you please inform the young master that there is an emergency back at home? It concerns the young miss." On the other end of the line, David nodded. "Okay." His voice was low and hurried. "Is there any other problem?" David asked. Butler Brooks hesitated for a moment. His grip on the phone tightened slightly. "No. This will be all for now." "Alright," David replied before ending the call. Butler Brooks slowly lowered the phone and let out a long breath. "I should have just told him the issue at hand. Poor young master. He is being blamed for something he doesn't even know about." He shook his head and walked back into the hospital. Meanwhile, inside a towering office building, Alexande
