The Undercover CEO Why is he after her
Hunter’s heart pounded in his chest as he dashed out of the office, the echo of his boss's enraged voice still ringing in his ears. He fumbled with his phone, nearly dropping it as he opened the travel app to book a flight. His fingers moved frantically across the screen, selecting the earliest available departure."Please, please, please..." he muttered under his breath, watching the spinning wheel of the app processing his request. Finally, the confirmation screen appeared. "Yes!" he whispered, relief flooding through him as he saw the details: a flight to the city where Genevieve's production was taking place, leaving in two hours.Hunter grabbed his coat and briefcase, racing down the hall toward the exit. He pushed through the revolving doors and into the bustling street, hailing a cab with a frantic wave. A yellow taxi screeched to a halt beside him, and he jumped in."To the airport, please! As fast as you can!" he instructed the driver, his voice breathless.The driver nodded
The Undercover CEO He's coming
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the city, Noah made his way through the bustling streets toward Genevieve's hotel. He had donned a simple disguise—a pair of dark glasses, a baseball cap pulled low over his forehead, and a scarf wrapped around the lower half of his face—enough to conceal his identity from casual observers.Arriving at the hotel, Noah hesitated for a moment before steeling himself and striding purposefully toward the entrance. The lobby was dimly lit, the soft murmur of conversation blending with the gentle hum of the air conditioning. Noah kept his head down, avoiding eye contact as he made his way to the elevator.Pressing the button for Genevieve's floor, Noah felt a surge of nervous energy coursing through him. When he reached her floor, Noah stepped out into the hallway and made his way to her door. He hesitated for a moment, his hand hovering over the handle before finally summoning the courage to knock.The sound echoed through t
The Undercover CEO Lockdown
Noah’s heart hammered in his chest as he turned back to Genevieve, her words echoing in his mind. "Hunter... why do I feel like I’ve heard that name before?" “What do you mean, Genevieve?” Noah asked, his voice low but urgent. He took a step closer, his eyes searching hers for any hint of recognition. “Have you heard about Hunter before? Do you know something?”Genevieve’s gaze flickered away, a shadow of something unreadable passing over her face. She shook her head slightly, biting her lower lip. “It’s nothing, Noah. Just... a feeling. I can’t explain it.”Noah wanted to press her, to demand answers, but he saw the resolute set of her jaw and knew she wouldn’t budge. He let out a frustrated sigh but didn’t push further. “Alright,” he said softly, his tone gentler now. “But if you remember anything, anything at all, promise me you’ll tell me. This guy has been tailing you from since I can remember, and his coming here can not be a coincident.”She nodded, her eyes meeting his with a
The Undercover CEO I want to see him again
Resting his head back on the seat, Noah shut his eyes, feeling a sense of annoyance and nervousness churn in his gut with every passing minute as he felt the car moving slowly and steadily. The feeling of being home at last after spending all his days in another country wasn't quite pleasant, and he wished to tell the driver to take him back to the airport, but he knew offending his parents was one of those things that wouldn’t go over well. After all, he had been doing it for years and they finally had enough of it, threatening him with the only thing he cares about, and that's the only reason he got on a plane in the first place.The sudden sound of the car squashing before it came to a harsh stop made Noah jolt out of his thoughts, opening his eyes as fast as he could to get a better view of his surroundings. There, in front of the taxi was a kid, shivering as he hugged his body, frozen in fear.“Bambino!” A lady's loud cry made Noah's eyes dart to the right to see her standing
The Undercover CEO I am not a husband material
After an hour's drive, the car came to a stop in front of a blue penthouse, and Noah stared out the window, frowning at the building, and then he sigh as he unlocked the doors and got out.The moment he stepped foot at the gate, it automatically opened for him, and he walked into the fence.It was like every servant was brief on his arrival because the moment the security saw him, they bowed their heads respectfully as he headed to the penthouse.When he got to the door, it immediately opened, and his mother hurried up to him, hugging him tightly and saying, “Noah!”“Mother,” Noah responded softly, wrapping his arms around her.Pulling back and cupping her son's face with her hands, she studied him carefully before asking, “You must be hungry. Come in.”“I rather talk about why you have been demanding my presence so eagerly than eat, Mom.” He responded simply, stepping inside the penthouse and stopping in front of his father.Both men's eyes lock for a moment in an intense gaze before
The Undercover CEO Stupid plan
The sound of footsteps drew Mrs. Stark attention off the dining table, and she glanced at the doorway to see Noah walking in, his face emotionless, and she could sense that he was still mad about yesterday.“Good morning, son.” Mrs. Stark greeted him happily as she stood and walked over to him, hugging him.For a moment, he stiffened in her arm, but when she squeezed him just a bit tighter, he relaxed slightly and hugged her back, murmuring, “Morning.”“You must be hungry. After all, you spent all of yesterday stuck in your room. Come sit down and eat. I made Charlotte prepare a healthy breakfast for you to replenish your energy,” She said, letting go of him and gesturing toward the table.“Why? So I can be fit to manufacture offspring for you guys.”“Noah,” Dragging a chair back slightly, Noah narrowed his eyes before sitting down and resting his elbow on the table, resting his face in his palms with a sigh.“You act like this is a terrible thing to build a family.” Mr. Stark stated
The Undercover CEO Where's your Mom
The drive took about an hour, and when they got on a dusty road, Pete pulled up to one of the smallest motels Noah had ever seen. “Okay, guys, we're here,” Pete said, parking his car in front of the building.“This place isn't too shabby,” Noah mumbled as he unlocked the car door and stepped out of it, walking towards the cab truck to get his suitcases.Once Noah had his luggage, he turned around and saw Rhodes standing behind him as he said, “I will take these, sirr... Jack.”“If you are going to treat me like a master than an equal, then I would rather you go back to my parents and not ruin this for me,” Noah said coldly, glaring at him. Slowly, Rhode pulled his hand back with this hesitant look on his face, and then he said, “Well, then, we better book a room, Jack.”“That’s more like it.” Noah sarcastically replied before walking away from the cab truck with his suitcases.A couple of minutes later, they got settled in two tiny separate rooms with Twin size beds, a closet, and a
The Undercover CEO Kidnap
The way the head maid so quickly gave in to him carrying the kid without supervision made Noah suspicious of her, but then Leo's stomach started groaning, and every last one of his senses left him. Getting Leo something to eat was the only thing that mattered at the moment, and all his other concerns faded when he saw that Leo buried his head in his neck, hugging him even tighter, and Noah could feel a small smile appear on his face.“Fine,” Noah said, glaring at the head maid. “I will return him soon.”Immediately, a slight smile beamed on her face, and then she walked ahead of the two, making Noah follow after her with Leo.Just then, the guard that had escorted Noah showed up in the hallway with the Butler in charge of the interview, and the two glared at Noah, leaving with Leo.“What do you think you are doing with that boy!!” The Butler yelled at Noah.Before Noah could speak, the head maid stared into the butler's eyes and said, “This young man seems to know little Leo, and he
