All Chapters of CEO Wants Me: Heiress Has Risen Again!: Chapter 341 - Chapter 350

Rhea's Pov “Alright, my love.” Alaric said with a smile as he gently reached out and booped me on the nose with his knuckle which made me giggle a little, “I promise that you'll be very satisfied with the punishment.” He said quietly, his tone promising. Then he turned. The smile left his face like someone had blown it away. The air in the mall changed. It went cold and hard and the old employee who took the black card went on her knees first, her entire body trembling violently. All the other employees followed immediately, dropping to their knees. Even the manager who called the ‘police’ rushed out and went on his knees. The scene looked quite comical, like a bunch of flies dropping to the ground after being sprayed with bug spray. I took a step forward, walking towards the employee who had gotten slapped because of me. She was kneeling as well, and when I got to her, she raised her head up slowly, then she met my eyes. Instantly, she put her head down, shaking. I smiled, “

Rhea's Pov “Sir, you said I wouldn't be able to work in the mall, I understand that! I'll leave! But you said... you said Imperial City...""Correct.” Alaric confirmed, his tone utterly devoid of emotion, "You sided with trash. You neglected your duty and allowed a good employee to be harassed. You could have called the police; you could have done the right thing. You didn't. So now, you pay the price."The manager looked utterly destroyed, "No! Please! I have a family! I have children! You can't do this! I'll never do it again, I swear! Just give me a small job, anything outside the mall, please!" He dropped to his knees, his plea desperate and raw, tears streaming down his face.Alaric merely shook his head, "You should have thought of them before you chose the wrong side. If I see your face anywhere in a professional setting in this city, the consequences will be far worse than poverty.”The manager fell to the ground, his face paler than paper, “N… No. No, this can't be. No.” He

Rhea's Pov “Mental… What's wrong with her?” Alaric sat up, giving me his full attention. “Before we went to the mall, something happened at home…” I explained everything I noticed about Neveah, and Alaric listened attentively. By the time I was done, Alaric looked like he was deep in thought. After a while, he sighed and leaned back on the chair, “You're right. A mental test was one of the things we should have done when we brought her back. This was our mistake. We'll check the hospital if they offer a service like this once we get there, so don't worry. Neveah will be fine.” I sighed and glanced back at Neveah, “I hope so.” It didn't take long for us to get to the hospital and once we did, Laziel went with the doctor to get his bones checked along with Alaric while I took Neveah to the children’s therapy department. The nurse at the reception was kind enough to guide me down the hall to a quiet corridor where soft music played in the background. The sign on the door read Dr. Le

Isabelle's Pov Alaric picked up his phone and placed it next to his ear, his eyes twinkling after seeing who was on the phone. A bad feeling arose in me and I stepped forward, wanting to tell him to just ignore whoever was calling and continue the meeting. However, I stayed rooted in my spot. “My love.” Alaric breathed out, his voice filled with loving calmness. My heart dropped. It was his wife. Since the phone wasn't on speaker, I had no idea what she said to him, but a second later, his face suddenly changed. The smile he wore turned into a frown, and his fists were clenched. “Hold on. I…” Beep. Beep. Beep. He didn't finish his words when the call suddenly ended. The moment the call ended, the air in the room shifted. It was like all the warmth drained out of it at once. Alaric’s hand slowly lowered from his ear, his phone still clutched tightly in his fist. His expression was unreadable for a second, then I saw it. Panic. Real, raw panic flickered across his face before he ma

Isabelle’s Pov “Dad.” I muttered under my breath after seeing the caller ID. My stomach dropped. This was the last person I wanted to speak to right now. I exhaled shakily, gripping the edge of the desk to ground myself. If I didn’t answer, it would only make things worse. He hated when I ignored his calls. I inhaled deeply, smoothed a trembling hand through my hair, and picked up the call.“Father.” I said quietly, trying to steady my voice.“Don't call me that.” He said, his voice as strong as I remembered. “I'm sorry. Mr Montaigne.” I corrected myself. “Isabelle.” His tone was clipped and hard, that familiar sound that made me stand a little straighter no matter where I was, “Is what I’m hearing true?”My fingers tightened around the phone, “What are you referring to?” I asked carefully, though I already knew.“I heard that Alaric Vale returned to Imperial City… and that he brought a woman with him.” The way he spat the word made my pulse quicken, “Is that true?”I swallowed h
