All Chapters of Caught In The CEO's Sweet Trap: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

LUCAS. Of all things, I didn’t expect Richard to look for Elias’s replacement. Did he really think we were that dumb? “Richard, what are you saying? I was wondering who this young man was. How is he your son?” Dad asked, his eyes wide in shock. I glanced at the man that Richard had brought to the villa to introduce to us. Quite alright, he had dark brown hair like Richard, and they resembled each other to some extent. So, it was easy for him to fool Dad. Not me.I hadn’t gotten any news from my investigations, but I knew for a fact that this strange man was an impostor. Richard suddenly broke into sobs, looking at Dad. “I had promised to tell you guys something after the wedding. I recently found out that Elias wasn’t my biological son.”I arched an eyebrow. My brother should have taken a career in acting. I bet he would win many Oscars. Olivia joined her overly dramatic husband and broke into sobs. She sniffled before saying, “There was a time Elias was beaten badly in jail, so

SOPHIA. “Someone’s glowing,” Carla said after our morning meeting with the directors.My leave was finally over, and I returned to work after spending my weekend indoors at the villa with Lucas. I looked at the files on the table, my mind flitting to our honeymoon. I had enjoyed myself, and already couldn't wait to go on a trip again. “You look happy,” Carla added. “I’m glad you found your happiness. Sometimes we go through certain things for a better future.” We sat in the conference room after everyone had left, taking tea and snacks during our short break after the meeting.I sighed, thinking back to the past. “The only thing that’s missing is my parents’ presence. If I hadn’t been so hellbent on marrying Elias, perhaps they wouldn’t have died. But… there’s no point in crying over spilt milk. I just hope they can rest in peace now. I got back control of the company and had their murderers locked up. I'm sure their souls are at rest now.”“You’re a strong woman, Sophia. I admire

CARLA. I blinked. My heart raced like a galloping horse. Was I dreaming?Caspian was kissing me… It all happened so fast… I usually said whatever was on my mind when drunk, but I didn’t expect him to kiss me on his own. Electric currents coursed through me as he kissed my lips fervently. What did this mean?Was this his response to my kiss?I clutched his shirt and kissed him back, my stomach fluttering with butterflies. The kiss was so good… he kissed me like he was trying to embed me into his soul… like I actually meant something to him. I wasn’t sure before, but now I was. I had fallen for Caspian... hard. I let my guard down and relished the kiss… the feel of his lips, his musky manly scent, his strong arms and the way I felt safe when he held me. After what felt like eternity but was only a few minutes, Caspian pulled back, his blue eyes staring into my hazel ones. “Let me take you home. You’ve had too much to drink,” he whispered before helping me up. My face burned. W

LUCAS. “We found the midwife who attended to Olivia thirty years ago,” Caspian said on the phone, making my eyebrows furrow. "She's the only one who's alive. She had been hiding, but it wasn't hard to locate her."The investigation team had been working relentlessly on finding evidence about what happened thirty years ago. A few days had passed since we sent out a few private investigators to the remote locations where the suspects were supposedly sent back then. Luckily, they managed to find something.“Has she talked?” I asked. “No… All she’s saying is that Olivia was pregnant and she gave birth to a baby boy. She’s sticking to that story, man. It’s not like my men can force her to talk without hurting her. And we can't torture women.”I clenched my fists. “I want to meet her.” “I doubt she will be changing her testimony. Whoever paid her must have given her a hefty amount.” “I still want to meet her. Perhaps if she meets a Hart, she won’t be tight-lipped any more.” I glanced a

LUCAS. “What is the meaning of this? Who is this woman, and why did you let her in here?” Richard questioned, his nostrils flaring. “Security, take this filthy woman out of here immediately!” A chuckle escaped my lips. “Why are you in a rush to chase her out, brother? She hasn’t even introduced herself yet.” “Why should we allow a nobody like her to waste our time when we have an important meeting?” Richard questioned, his face red from anger. He looked like a pressure cooker that was about to explode. “Lucas, did you bring her here to disrupt our meeting?” “Why don’t you let her talk first, brother?” I asked and then narrowed my eyes. “Or are you afraid of what she might say? You keep shouting... I'm starting to think you're trying to distract us.” “Who’s this woman, son?” Dad asked.I folded my arms across my chest. “Before I let her explain why she’s here or who she is, I would like to tell my brother that I know Elias was adopted. So there’s no way he could have been switched
