Until The Baby Is Born: CEO's Temporary Fiancee His ointment
“This is not your office…” Ivy’s voice was low, almost uncertain, as her gaze swept across the space.They were at the very top of the Red Star building. The penthouse wasn’t what she expected. It wasn’t grand like she imagined the home of the empire’s heir to be. Instead, it was sleek, modern, with polished marble floors and walls of glass that bled into the skyline. The city sprawled below, a constellation of lights against the twilight.Muted greys and blacks filled the space, softened by warm lighting that glowed from sculpted fixtures. A single leather couch faced a glass coffee table, everything neat, untouched, too perfect, too empty.Asher walked inside like he owned not just the penthouse but the city beneath it. He shrugged off his blazer and tossed it on the couch with careless grace. “It’s my penthouse,” he said flatly. “Whenever I don’t return home, just know that I am here.”Ivy’s arms crossed in front of her. She didn’t move past the doorframe. Her voice was sharp, dism
Until The Baby Is Born: CEO's Temporary Fiancee Bumping into him
Ivy was lost inside the vast empire of the Red Star Group. Every hallway stretched endlessly, glass and steel gleaming, employees moving with purposeful steps as though they knew exactly where they belonged. Unlike her. She felt like an intruder in Asher Cole’s world.Her phone pressed against her ear grounded her in the moment, though Christopher’s clipped tone only made her pulse quicken.“Yes, Mr. Christopher. I have received the file,” she said quietly, weaving between employees who barely gave her a glance.“Have you started working on it?” he pressed.“Not yet,” Ivy sighed, her voice betraying her exhaustion. “I already told you that I need some days to figure something out about my life.”There was silence for a beat before his voice came again, sharper this time. “Why are you still talking as if I don’t know anything about your ‘something’? The entire world knows about your ‘something’ now.”She frowned, his words hitting her with unexpected force. There was a thread of frustr
Until The Baby Is Born: CEO's Temporary Fiancee Department
The corridors of Red Star Group gleamed as though no one ever touched them, polished steel and glass reflecting the sharp heels that clicked against the marble floors. Ivy walked a step behind Samantha, her palms damp against the strap of her bag. The sting on her cheek had dulled, but inside, her chest still ached from humiliation.She stole a glance at the sleek lines of the office walls, the frosted glass windows etched with the company’s vibe. Royalty. This was the empire Asher Cole ruled and somehow, she had been pulled into its walls like a trespasser.They stopped in front of a wide glass door etched in silver letters: FINANCE DEPARTMENT.Ivy blinked. Her brows knit in confusion. “Finance?”Samantha pushed the door open with a smirk, turning to her. “Welcome to your new home, Miss Marlowe.”Ivy’s steps faltered. “Finance?” she asked softly. “That’s… not what he said. Mr. Cole appointed me to the marketing and management department.” Her voice steadied as she continued, “I don
Until The Baby Is Born: CEO's Temporary Fiancee The apology
For a long moment, the lobby was so silent Ivy thought she could hear the blood rushing in her ears. The sting of Samantha’s slap still burned across her cheek, but it wasn’t the pain that hollowed her chest, it was the weight of Asher’s cold, merciless eyes. And then, his voice came. “Apologize to her.” Ivy’s lips parted, her breath catching as though the ground itself had just given way. “Ap… apologize… to her?” Her voice cracked, disbelief laced in every syllable. Her eyes widened, the words rolling over her like a wave she couldn’t escape. She had prepared for indifference, for distance, even for contempt. But not this. Not the man she had once loved standing here, supporting the very woman who had humiliated her. She swallowed, hard, but the whispers around her pressed in anyway, sharp as knives. “Did she really think Mr. Cole would defend her?” “She’s stupid if she did.” “Everyone knows Mr. Cole and Samantha have history.” “He’s always protected her. Always. This is no d
Until The Baby Is Born: CEO's Temporary Fiancee The slap
“Oh, her? That’s the mother of your future husband’s baby. Lol.” The words landed like a slap in the air, sharper than any hand. Heat rushed to Ivy’s cheeks. A hum of whispers rippled across the lobby. Samantha stiffened, her eyes flashing wide before narrowing to vicious slits. “What?” she spat. Her voice dripped venom. “What the fuck did you just say, Hailey?” Hailey let out a chuckle, she was so ready to enjoy the scene unfolding in front of her. “Oh, right. You weren't in the country. You missed the news. The Cole family announced her and Mr Cole's engagement yesterday. They didn't confirm the reason for the sudden engagement but I think it's because she's pregnant with his child.” Hailey explained with a smirk as she eyed Ivy. “Tell me, bitch. Is what she said correct? Are you pregnant with his child?!” Samantha said in a low tone, taking a threatening step toward her. Ivy’s fingers clenched around the strap of her bag, but she forced herself to meet Samantha’s eyes. He
Until The Baby Is Born: CEO's Temporary Fiancee The chauffeur
“It's 9 AM already…?” She asked herself before hurrying to the living room.The sound of movement in the living room stirred Ivy awake. She pulled on her robe and followed it, her bare feet whispering over the polished floor.Asher stood by the door, adjusting his cufflinks. The charcoal suit fit him with ruthless perfection, his tie sharp and precise. Morning light caught in his dark hair, but for a split second his gaze froze on her, loose waves tumbling around her shoulders, her robe carelessly knotted, skin flushed with sleep.“You’re leaving already?” she asked softly.His throat worked before his tone snapped back into place. “I have a meeting.”She walked closer, tightening her robe. “Give me ten minutes. I’ll get dressed and we can leave together.” As he asked her to join the company temporarily, she thought it would be good to start from today. She can understand the company better. He shook his head, slipping his watch over his wrist. “No. I have arranged a chauffeur for y
