All Chapters of Betrayed By Husband, Saved By Aloof CEO: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

***Days passed in the blink of an eye, and soon, the long-awaited day of Lovett’s bakery grand opening arrived.As early as nine in the morning, Flour & Fluff was already buzzing—packed wall to wall with customers.Lovett was completely overwhelmed. She had never imagined such a turnout. Thankfully, she had hired enough staff in advance—though at this rate, she’d need even more very soon.All this… after just two days of pre-launch promotion.She expected the crowd to thin out by noon, but instead, it continued to grow. It was almost as though those who left returned with even more people in tow. Perhaps the forty-percent discount on all orders had something to do with it.From morning till evening, Lovett and her staff barely had a moment to breathe. Even her best friend closed her restaurant by noon and rushed over to help.At exactly seven in the evening, an unexpected guest arrived—along with the rest of her family.“Ah…” Lovett froze the moment she spotted Chairwoman Olivia Huds

Left alone once again, Boss picked a cigarette from the pack and lit it. He took a slow drag, smoke curling around his sharp features.Moments later, the phone buzzed.He glanced at it, exhaled lazily, and answered in a calm, measured tone.“Yes?”A brief silence followed.“The necklace?”Silence again.The corner of his lips lifted slightly.“I see she took a liking to it.”He leaned back.“Hurry back once you’re done there. There’s a mission waiting.”The call ended.For just a moment, his gaze softened, just a fraction. 'I’ll see you soon, Lovey.'Back at Flour & FluffFrom his seat, Alexander watched Lovett re-enter the bakery. His eyes narrowed slightly, his lips pressing into a thin line.Earlier, the moment Gerald spotted Collins and his men, he had leaned in and whispered,“That’s that man's right-hand man. C.”Alex had said nothing.He had watched everything—the delivery man, the flowers, the briefcases, and the scene that followed.And now, he continued to watch silently as

-----A day earlier—on Friday—Old Madam Hudson had dropped an important message into the family’s WhatsApp group.-Good morning, ladies.I’ve noticed how busy everyone has been lately, and I think it’s time you all slowed down and reconnected. So, I’ve arranged a spa day for all the women in the family. Everything has already been paid for.This is simply a chance to relax, spend time together, and strengthen the bond you share as sisters, daughters, mothers, and friends.Go and enjoy yourselves tomorrow. You all deserve a little peace and pampering!P.S: Arrival time is 9 a.m. sharp.With love,Your ever-watchful sponsor of sanity and skincare.-Whether or not it was clearly stated, everyone understood that Old Madam Hudson’s words were not a suggestion. And so, early in the morning, the Hudson women made their way to Pure Essence Spa.Lovett took a well-deserved day off work, just like the others. There was First Madam, Evelyn Hudson—Old Madam’s youngest child and only daughter. Sec

Kennedy was thrown into confusion. His thoughts raced, one colliding with another. What was he supposed to do now?He immediately dialed the number that had contacted him earlier, but it wouldn’t go through. Sigh.“Could you please call President Hudson’s office instead?” he asked.The receptionist kept her polite smile. “I’m sorry, sir. I won’t be able to do that.” With that, she turned to attend to another guest.Kennedy groaned inwardly. He was no small figure himself—no, not as powerful as President Alexander, but influential all the same. He was the director of Power Group, after all! And yet, here he was, left standing and ignored.But this was Rykard Industries. He knew very well that his status held little weight here.With a quiet walk of shame, he moved to a set of chairs by the side of the lobby, close to the entrance, and sat down.Just then, the CEO’s personal assistant—who had stepped out briefly for a meeting—reentered the lobby. He was heading toward the elevator when

The CEO devoured his wife’s lips, claiming her mouth with an intensity that left no room for doubt. The kiss was fierce and consuming, as though his very existence depended on it. Each movement was rough, unrestrained, and burning with pent-up desire.Breathless, Lovett finally pushed him away with trembling hands. She bit down on her lower lip and fled, slamming her bedroom door shut behind her.A low, throaty chuckle slipped from Alexander’s lips. He licked the corner of his mouth, his gaze fixed on the direction his wife had disappeared to.Lovett’s heart pounded wildly as she dashed to her bed and buried herself beneath the duvet. A muffled scream escaped her, swallowed by her pillow.What just happened?!Did she really just share a French kiss with the big bad demon?!Unbelievable!What was he thinking, coming onto her like that? And worse—what was she thinking, actually responding? What if she had completely lost her self-control?!She had reacted to every single—No. It had to
