All Chapters of Betrayed By Husband, Saved By Aloof CEO: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

The aura radiating from Alexander was enough to freeze the entire house. His towering frame loomed over Lovett, domineering, and she couldn’t help but gulp.“Cat got your tongue?” He took another step forward.Lovett took a step back. Another forward, another backward. Cold sweat broke out on her skin. No matter how hard she tried, her voice refused to form. The look in his eyes was terrifying—could he, please, just take it easy?She opened her mouth, only for his expression to shift.“I know you.” Another step forward, his forehead creasing.‘Huh? I don’t know youuu, Big Bad Demon! I don’t want to know you!’ Lovett screamed inwardly, stumbling another step back.By now, they had reached the living room.Alexander’s head tilted, brows furrowed, as if dredging through his memory. A moment later, one brow shot upward. “Thief.”“Pardon?” Lovett frowned.“Auto burglar. You.”His voice carried hostility, every word like a knife. “What are you doing in my house? How did you get in? What hav

Since Old Madam Hudson was based abroad, only highly esteemed select few recognized her. The elderly woman smiled at the DCG, her gaze lifting until it landed on her Jewel—and her face lit up. “Grannyyyy!” Lovett rushed down the steps and into the woman’s embrace. It had been over a month since she’d last seen Granny. She hadn’t expected they’d meet so soon again. Who would have thought the elderly woman would return to the country at the same time? Two nights ago, Granny had called, telling Lovett she’d be back soon. Now, here they were—hugging tightly, as if five years had passed instead of just one month. When they finally pulled apart, Lovett’s eyes shone. “Granny, I never expected you’d come straight here! I feel terrible. You were supposed to head home to rest.” “It’s nothing. Anything for my granddaughter-in-law.” Chairwoman Hudson said, patted the young woman’s back. Lovett’s lips twitched. Granny was at it again. Chairwoman Hudson turned to the DCG. “Thank

While in the car on his way to M&M Restaurants, the CEO’s thoughts drifted back to the incident from the previous day.That thief.His blood boiled instantly, fury surging through his veins.He would catch her. And once this absurd date was over, he would head straight to that police station and have every incompetent officer there thrown into the darkest cells they could find.A bunch of fools!What was it Gerald had said again? They aren’t mentioning names.The audacity.Nearly an hour later, the car pulled to a smooth stop at its destination.As Alexander stepped out, he buttoned his suit jacket and strode into the high-end restaurant with practiced ease.The moment he entered, gasps and whispers rippled through the room.“Oh my God, he’s so handsome!”“Who is that fallen angel?”“Mom, I’ve found the one at last!”The CEO of Rykard Industries was a well-known name—perhaps more famous than the man himself.Alexander lived an exceptionally discreet life. He rarely posted on social me

Alexander’s back stiffened.He turned—and there she was.She stood a short distance away in a grey flared gown, a small handbag clasped in her hand. Her hair was neatly tied into a ponytail, yet fine baby hairs escaped, dancing softly in the breeze.Alexander said nothing as he regarded her.“My car is still at your place,” Lovett spoke calmly. “I’d like to retrieve it now.”Only then did it dawn on him.He hadn’t even slept at the residence the previous night.“Alright,” he said simply. “Get in.”Lovett blinked, startled.That wasn’t what she had meant… but then again, there was no way the security at the estate’s main gate would allow a commercial vehicle inside. Trekking from the entrance to the villa would be madness—assuming they even granted her access at all.The Big Bad Demon must have already instructed his men to deny her entry.There was no other option.“Okay.”She pulled open the passenger door and slid into the luxurious vehicle.Alexander took the driver’s seat and step

***“That’s insane!!!” Janet’s eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets.After leaving the Big Bad Demon’s house, Lovett had driven straight to Sweet Like Honey, waiting impatiently for her best friend to finish serving customers.While she waited, she received a call from Granny and was forced to turn the old lady down.Perhaps—just perhaps—if her grandson had been someone else, she might have considered it. But he was the DPM??? Hell no!“He’s your granny’s grandson?!” Janet exclaimed.Lovett nodded miserably.“Impossible! So what happened then?”“What do you think? Nothing. I won’t see him anymore. Not like I was interested anyway. I only went there for Granny’s sake. Now it’s over.”She scrunched up her face. “I never want to see that man again.”Janet stared at her thoughtfully. “This might be fate… your fate. You’ve known your Granny for years, lived with her in the States, and never once knew her grandson. Then the moment you return, you end up crossing paths with the DPM! Aren
