Caspian sat in silence, his mind filled with the thoughts of Aurora's demand. He bowed his head as the weight of Aurora's words pressed him down. The thought of how a prestigious CEO like himself will all of a sudden turn into an errand boy hurt his pride and self-esteem really hard. He tightened his fist, and he tried to reduce his thoughts; he was at a loss for words and didn't know how to respond to Aurora.

Without uttering a word, he stood up with his pride degraded from the seat and walked towards the door; his movements were hard. However, as he made his way to the door, Aurora's voice echoed deeply and sharply behind him. “Don't forget, Caspian, you only have three days to get back to me!” Hearing that, he halted his steps to decide what Aurora had said, still maintaining his position without turning to Aurora.

Caspian tightened his lips, clenched his fist without uttering any words, finally made a move, and walked out of Aurora's office.

  • The Ruthless Billionaire's Wife Returns   Chapter 52

    Caspian arrived at Aurora's Group, his heart rang with anticipation. He strode confidently toward the entrance, but the security guard stepped forward and blocked his path."I'm sorry, sir, but I can't let you in without an appointment," the guard said, his tone firmed was firm but polite.Caspian's brow rose. "Do you know who I am?" he asked and introducing himself as one of the prominent CEOs in Montana.The guard remained unmoved. "I understand, sir, but Miss. Aurora has requested not to meet anyone today. She has a full schedule."Caspian's frustration grew, but he nodded and stepped back. He couldn't leave now. He needed to see her, to speak with her.Hours passed as he waited outside and was observing the comings and goings of employees. The building is more magnificent than he imagined, it was an edifice of glass and steel, and reflecting the sky above and the bustling city below. It was a testament to Aurora's success, a success he once shared with her.Then, a sleek SUV pul

  • The Ruthless Billionaire's Wife Returns   Chapter 51

    Caspian stood in between his living room, loud and restless. He yanked off his jacket, threw it carelessly on the couch, and ran a hand through his hair, pacing the floor like a man on the edge.He couldn’t sit. He couldn’t breathe properly.His heart was still pounding from what just happened at the mall.She didn’t recognise him.He coldn’t believe that Aurora looked him in the face and walked away like he was a stranger.No, he told himself. That was not possible. She was lying. Pretending. Maybe because she saw him with Annabel. Maybe… maybe that hurt her. That was the only explanation.He grabbed a glass from the bar and poured himself a drink, his hand was shaking slightly. The amber liquid swirled in the glass, but he didn’t drink it. He just held it, staring blankly.Suddenly, he heard footsteps behind him.He turned and saw Annabel coming down the stairs, wearing a silky, wine-red dress that clung to her curves like a second skin. Her hair flown over her shoulders. She was we

    Chapter 50Three years.It was three years now since the plane crash that turned Caspian’s world apart. Not a single day went by that he didn’t replay the tragedy in his mind. The scream, the fire, the silence that followed. He lost Aurora… or so he thought.Today, he walked silently beside Annabel inside the largest mall in Montana. She giggled at something he didn’t catch; he was too distracted. His mind wasn't in the present. It hasn't been, not since he buried a part of his soul with Aurora's name on it.Annabel was now freed after the new government overturned several convictions and had slowly crept back into Caspian’s life. Not that he welcomed her with open arms. However, after years of loneliness and numbness, he no longer had the energy to fight everyone. He barely even talks during their outing, only responding with nods.He reached for a black shirt on the rack when his phone buzzed sharply in his pocket. He grabbed it instantly.“Sir, it’s Ralph,” the voice said, breathle

  • The Ruthless Billionaire's Wife Returns   Chapter 49

    Caspian sat alone in Aurora’s sitting room, staring blankly at the floor. His heart ached with the pains of her rejection. He had come to her hoping to change her mind, to remind her of what they once shared, but she was so cold and distant to him. He did not know what else to do.His fingers ran through his hair as he let out a deep sigh. His body was too tired; his mind was more exhausted. The pains of everything he had done, every mistake he had made, felt deeper than ever. He wanted to leave, but his legs refused to move. Instead, he leaned back against the couch, closed his eyes, and before he knew it, he drifted off into an uncomfortable sleep.Aurora, on the other hand, had retreated to her room after sending Liam off with the nanny. She had convinced herself that she was done with Caspian, that she would not let her emotions override her. But even as she lay in bed, she could not stop thinking about him. His desperate eyes, the way he had held their son, and the pain in his vo

  • The Ruthless Billionaire's Wife Returns   Chapter 48

    Caspian paced his study, his mind restless as he waited for Ralph’s call. He had spent the entire night thinking of ways to win Aurora back. Now that the DNA test had proven the child was not his, he had no reason to let her go. He needed to see her, to make things right. He somehow got provoked, as his thoughts swayed to why Mitchel had acted the way she did to him. Why she would want to pin a child that isn’t his on him. He was trying to juggle the thought between Aurora and Mitchel when his phone buzzed, and he grabbed it instantly."Sir, I have found her," Ralph's voice came through. "Aurora is in her mansion at her Pinnacle Estate."Without hesitation, Caspian rushed to his room, threw on a fresh shirt, and grabbed his car keys. Within minutes, he was speeding down the familiar streets leading to Pinnacle’s estate. His heart pounded harder with each passing moment. Would she listen to him? Would she give him another chance?Upon arrival, the security recognised him and let him in

  • The Ruthless Billionaire's Wife Returns   Chapter 47

    Caspian arrived at the hospital with a racing heart, gripping the envelope containing the hair sample tightly. He stormed into the doctor’s office, his voice sharp and commanding."Doctor, I need this DNA test done immediately," he demanded, slamming the sample onto the table. "I need the results as soon as possible. I need to know if the child with this hair is mine"The doctor, an older man with years of experience, adjusted his glasses and nodded. "Understood, Mr Harrison. But to ensure accuracy, we’ll need a sample of your blood as well."Caspian barely flinched. "Do whatever you have to do. Just be quick."The nurse swiftly collected a sample of Caspian’s blood and handed it over to the doctor. "It will take a few minutes to process," the doctor said. "Please wait."Caspian sat in the waiting area, his fingers drumming against the armrest. His mind was in turmoil. He wasn’t ready to lose Aurora. He prayed, for the first time in a long time, that the child wasn’t his.Minutes felt
