All Chapters of The CEO'S Contract Husband: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

Paul’s pov“Give me one good reason that you’ve not been in my childhood,” she asked as I scoffed.We were still arguing about this and suddenly we were talking about random things. What was her deal anyway?I held my head in my hands as I rubbed it around my face.“It’s late. You should go back home. We will talk later in the morning.”“I want to talk now,” her speech slurred.“You’re drunk. Go home and sleep it off. I know that you are really broken up about your mother and I being divorced, but it’s a mutual understanding. Besides, you opened my eyes to see that we weren’t going to last together very much as a family, so it’s better I let her go.”“No,” she shook her head. “I am done trying to be the one putting this family together. I called you to remind you of my birthday. My birthday! How many children do you have?”“Just you, Sophia, but I don’t see why you’re making a big fuss about it. Parents forget their children’s birthday all the time.”“Yeah, they do, but I expect you t

Paul’s povSo much went through my mind as i thought of fucking everything up and clocking him across the jaw.Who did he think he was to tell me what to do and act like he was better than me?I leaned into him so that only he would hear me.“You shouldn't cross the line that was meant for the greats. Trust me, it will only make things worse.”The boy gave me a smile that told me that he didn't care about what I had to say. He nodded and looked at the rest of the group before looking back at me. His countenance changed from that of a smiling boy to that of a man who had the power to destroy me. For a second, he looked so much like his father.“Please go back to your seat,” he said with a straightforward look. One that said that if I defied him, I would pay dearly.I gave him a small nod before walking away from him and going to my seat.Thomas looked at me with a worried look as he leaned into me.“If you would just let me in on your own plans…” he started as I hissed inwardly which h

Alex’s pov“Be careful, young boy. My patience runs very, very fast. You might think that you’re the biggest, baddest wolf in town, but trust me when I say that you’re nothing. Don’t push me to the edge.”I wondered what gave him the right to think threatening me was a great idea. Did he have any idea who I was and what I was capable of?He slowly got to his feet and walked to the floor to ceiling windows and with his hands behind his back.“Do you know how many companies that I have been a board member of?” He asked before turning to look at me.His frame was like that of a mafia boss seen in movies. His aura was seeping from his body.He slowly smiled to me, his hair all slicked back with his very fancy suit. “I’ve been a board member of more than fifty seven companies,” he said. “I don’t know if that’s supposed to be an accomplishment or just many companies not knowing how to handle themselves, but amongst all these companies, your father’s own is the one that has lasted the longes

Paul’s povOn the morning of the gala, I sat down while my tailor made sure my clothes fit. It would be a few hours before the gala would hit. My countdown was already clocking, and I was ready for the meeting time.My phone rang as I picked it up.“Yes?” I said.“Sir, we’re ready. We’re at the warehouse.”“And you all are in position?”“Yes, sir, we are.”“Good,” I nodded. “Very good. Make sure nothing goes wrong.”“I won’t.”A knock came on my door as I looked up to see my daughter, Sophia, coming in. I turned to the butler that was standing by the door and my tailor.“You two should leave.”With a bow, they turned and left as I turned to her.“What is it? Here to argue? Here to fight again?”“I’m sorry about the other night.”I scoffed. “You are always ready to fight, my daughter. I’m guessing you were mad at me the other…”“I’m not here to fight you,” she said, stopping me before I could continue. “I’m here to apologize so just hear me out.”I nodded and waved her to continue.“I

Alex’s povI watched him walk out as Dennis soon joined me.“You’re here all alone now,” he said, leaning over the balcony as I smiled at him.“Yep.”“What were you two talking about?”I shrugged. “He wanted to tell me not to fight with Paul.”He looked deeply at me. “And?”“I won’t fight with him. Relax.”He nodded and looked over the railing as I let the silence between us brew with the pattt sounds rising behind us.“He also wanted to tell me how grateful he was for how good you are at riling people.”“Ahh,” he nodded. “I see, giving me motivation to keep working harder.”“Better earn that paycheck.” I laughed.I sipped the drink a bit before holding it and swirling it around. I then turned to him.“Why are you here?”“Minus the fact that I didn’t want to talk to anyone in the party? Nothing much.”But he was lying. I could see his jaw was tensed.“What is it? Just tell me. Something is up, isn’t it?”He nodded. “Well, yeah. There was a douchebag in there talking about me, and he w
