The Silent Wife of The CEO のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 91 - チャプター 100

Zoe stepped onto the stage, trying not to slip on its seemingly slippery surface. She easily found the marked spot and stood there. The music momentarily paused as the voiceover narration would be added later. But Zoe knew the camera had already started recording.The brief silence gave Zoe a chance to observe what lay in front of her.Dimness surrounded her as the brightest lights focused on her. However, Zoe could make out three large chairs where the judges sat, their backs turned to her. They would turn around to judge her later, once the chairs rotated.It was Wolf's idea for her to join this reality show to gain full exposure in a short time. It was advantageous for instant popularity but also risky. Eliminating Zoe in the initial rounds would require them to start over. But Wolf assured her that would only happen if all the judges were deaf.Zoe stared at two names among the three, each written behind the semi-circular chairs.The first one was Jacob, whom she would choose as h

Billy stared at Zoe without blinking, but Zoe was no longer surprised. Sooner or later, she hoped for a confrontation like this. It happened a bit sooner than expected, but not too surprising. Zoe quickly prepared herself mentally."Mr. Dacosta, I don't know what you mean, but please let go." Zoe pulled her hand away, displaying a face of reasonable fear as she was roughly cornered by an unfamiliar person."Don't pretend to be ignorant and deny it! I know you're pretending! How can you be here?!" Billy pressed on while continuing to forcibly pull Zoe's hand."Mr. Dacosta, you're hurting me!" Zoe intentionally shouted loudly, drawing attention from people around her. They were still in the building's lobby, and some heads turned their way.Billy realized it too. There were too many witnesses, and of course, Billy appeared as if he were confronting a woman without any clear reason. Billy let go of Zoe's hand."I don't know what you're talking about." Zoe stepped back, still looking at B

"Look at this!" Billy handed his phone to Max, who was playing his guitar. He was in the process of writing a song.Max stopped playing, squinting as he looked at Billy. He didn't understand why Billy wanted him to watch the video on the phone, but from Billy's forced expression, Max knew he had to comply. Billy could be nice, but opposing him could be frightening.Max played the unedited video he got from one of the crew members at the TV station earlier—something impossible without a connection."What am I supposed to see? What..."Max fell silent as the black-haired woman in a pink dress began to sing. Max squinted to get a clearer view of her face in the video."She...""Zoe, right? It's Zoe! I knew it was Zoe!" Billy immediately exclaimed.Max fell silent again, watching the video until it finished and scrutinizing the face."She does look similar, but it seems not to be her. She's very beautiful, and her eye color is different, as is her hair. Dark eyebrows, unlike Zoe," Max sai

Because of that, Wolf could suggest to Zoe that she follow him. Wolf refused that offer, of course. He didn't want to appear in front of the camera for a long time. So, he instructed Jacob to represent Wolf."Oh? Then why did you ask about the details earlier?" Zoe was a bit annoyed, feeling that Wolf had let her do something useless. She explained the details of the next scene that she already knew."I didn't ask about any details. You told me this yourself earlier. Did you forget?" Wolf reminded her, then closed his ears with earphones again, working on arrangements on his computer.Zoe grumbled but couldn't argue. It was true that she freely told Wolf everything earlier. Without feeling awkward or having the need to restrain herself. Zoe couldn't remember when she became so talkative with Wolf.Since she regained the ability to speak, Zoe has spent most of her time talking to Wolf—besides Sara. Wolf's presence could be annoying at times, but he always listened patiently and attenti

[Son't worry. Sing with congidencce. Thjere's no difference between singing live or tapping. Youy'll be fine."Wolf and his typo-laden messages never failed to make Zoe smile. Zoe actually had the chance to activate the autocorrect feature on Wolf's phone so that his typos would decrease, as they met yesterday. But Zoe let it be.The message wouldn't be as funny and entertaining without those typos. Though sometimes Zoe had to think a bit longer to understand what Wolf meant, she preferred the typo-filled messages. The messages felt special and could only be sent by Wolf."I actually really like this song, but Syanna doesn't allow me to sing it. She thinks my voice doesn't suit it."While reading Wolf's message, Zoe turned her attention away when Laila, one of Syanna's chosen contestants, complained to Zoe about her vetoed song choice."But so far, you've always won using Syanna's chosen songs. What she picks is always right, isn't it?" Zoe clearly didn't want to discredit Syanna, as
