Semua Bab Mr. CEO, Marry Me On Conditions [The CEO's Replaced Bride]: Bab 371 - Bab 380

TiffanyAnother knock on the door. I flinch and look at the clock. It's seven. I have been sitting here for almost an hour now and didn't even realise. "Tiffany!" John's voice comes from outside, startling me. I immediately wipe my tears off and look in the mirror. Thankfully, I'm not looking much worse."Yeah. Coming!" I stutter and open the door."I'm sorry if you were sleeping", he says."No. It's fine", I tell him, smiling. "Well, Kevin has left his art project at home. Thea had called me. I can't find it anywhere", he says. Wow! Leaving home one hour earlier and still forgetting things!"He did that project in your room yesterday", I tell him. "Yeah. I looked over there. Found nothing", he says."Let me check", I come out of the room and surge towards his room. *I and John search the whole room for the artwork but it's nowhere to be seen. I even checked the boys' room in between. The artwork should be clear here because Thea had started doing all this last night which I did

TheaI know what I have started. His reaction says it all. John's face has turned ice cold now. His eyes were frozen on me as it was the exact moment when he asked that question. I can hear his deep and heavy breath as if it's just a moment before he starts roaring. I know it's working. My initial plan is working. Even though I wasn't ready to disclose it yet and I was afraid, I can see it all acting up the same way as I wanted. It's going to be complicated and I have to be careful while taking each step.But there's no way back.There's no other way.If it was like before, I would not care about anything. I would be less scared while doing all this because at that moment I would be only concerned about losing my security. Yet, I wouldn't be scared. Because even if John left me, I would have gotten more than I wanted. The divorce, the alimony, maybe the custody of kids and more for their upbringing. I always had a backup. I was always secure. I never feared he would leave me. Becaus

TiffanyI have been standing in the hallway, walking here and there and sometimes looking up at the stairs since John dragged Thea into the room. All I know is the conversation between them is not gonna be that simple at all. Thea will eventually have to either tell him the truth behind all this, or else she'll be playing the dirtiest game ever. As far as I know her, she'll obviously choose the second option. "Tiffany!" Kevin's voice drags me out of my thoughts. Getting startled, I look behind and give him a forced smile. "We're hungry. When will you get us the dinner?" He asks.Heck!I almost forgot about that. And I didn't even prepare anything. "I'm so sorry", I stutter. "Wait! I'm gonna prepare something as soon as possible", I say, surging towards the kitchen."Is there anything already prepared or leftover? I'm too hungry. Ryan is yelling at me", he folds his lips as I open the fridge.I turn to him, disappointed. "Let me see. I'm sorry I forgot about it. Your mom was about

IvannaI squeeze my eyes shut and brush my fingers against my forehead letting out a huge sigh. It was something tragic for me since I never came across such a situation, especially in the villa itself. I look at the door. John and Thea have left but John's last words keep echoing inside my head. The way he gazed at Christian and threatened to ruin him was enough for me to realise the upcoming turn of events. I can still feel my heart thudding against my chest. It takes me a while to process it all. I roll my eyes around the hallway. Mrs Fisher has been there, a few feet away. Her eyes are full of concern. As soon as my gaze lands on her, she gets startled and looks around. "Get back to your work, everyone", she says in a firm tone to the house helpers. Getting startled, they also get back to their respective work. "Let me know if you need something", she says with a half-smile and leaves. I catch my breath and turn around. Christian has been already looking at me. His eyes are cal

Christian"What happened last night?" Kane asks, surging straight to my desk. By the look on his face, I can clearly say he has been losing his mind after the contracts were paused. "Something we all expected", I say, passing a half-smile and getting back to my computer screen. "Well, You better not lose your mind about that""How could I not?" He says, slumping onto the seat in front of me. "Did you even try to explain anything to Mr Fox?""He wouldn't trust me anyway. I don't even expect him to. Now, all we can do is prove everything in court and Thea has no other option except for confessing her deeds. John isn't gonna trust any of this until she confesses herself""As if she would", he groans. "She can keep acting innocent for the rest of her life instead of confessing what she has done"I move my gaze back to him. "Stop panicking, Kane. There's nothing to panic about""There is actually. You looked at the revenue of your company. The graph! It was already frozen and we could onl
