All Chapters of THE CEO LEFT ME.... THEN CAME BACK BEGGING: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

The silence after the Archive was destroyed felt almost unnatural.No alarms.No flashing screens.No hidden messages.No countdowns.For the first time in years, there was nothing telling them what would happen next.But Amelia knew better.The silence didn't mean they were safe.She was still holding Damian when Bennett shouted from the doorway."They're here."Everyone turned.The barricaded entrance had begun to shake.Once.Twice.Then violently.Nathan tightened his grip on his weapon."How many?"Bennett looked through the narrow opening."At least ten."Noah moved beside him."Ten?"Bennett shook his head."More are coming."Damian slowly pushed himself upright.Amelia immediately held his arm."Don't.""I'm fine.""You just collapsed.""I'm still standing.""That's not the same thing."A faint smile crossed his face."You're becoming very bossy.""And you're becoming very difficult."He squeezed her hand."I missed this."Amelia frowned."What?""You worrying about me."She s

The eyes opened.Amelia froze.For several seconds, nobody moved.Nobody breathed.The figure behind the glass remained perfectly still, submerged in darkness.Only the faint glow from the laboratory illuminated the outline of a body inside the chamber.A child.Or at least, that was what Amelia thought at first.The boy standing beside the control panel stared at the chamber with an expression that was almost reverent.“He's awake,” he whispered.Damian stepped closer to Amelia.“Stay behind me.”Amelia barely heard him.Her eyes were fixed on the chamber.Something about the figure inside felt familiar.Not familiar in the way a face was familiar.It was something deeper.A sensation.A memory that didn't feel like a memory.Her stomach tightened.The baby moved again.Hard.Amelia gasped and placed a hand against her abdomen.The heartbeat from inside the chamber immediately accelerated.Thump.Thump.Thump.The machine began flashing red.Adrian looked at the readings.“That's not

“Anastasia?”Amelia's voice broke.The room remained completely dark.For one terrifying second, there was nothing.No movement.No answer.Then the speakers crackled.“Yes.”Amelia covered her mouth.Her knees almost gave out.Damian caught her before she fell.“Amelia.”“She's alive.”Her voice trembled.“She said she's alive.”Alexander stared at the speakers as if they had become something impossible.“No.”Amelia looked at him.“You heard her.”“I know that voice.”Alexander's face had gone pale.“I know that voice.”The speakers crackled again.“Dad?”Alexander froze.That single word destroyed whatever composure he had left.He took a step forward.“Anastasia?”“Yes.”His eyes filled instantly.“My God.”He covered his face with one hand.“I thought you were dead.”“I was supposed to be.”The words sent a chill through the room.Damian looked toward the ceiling.“Where are you?”A pause.“I don't know.”Adrian stepped toward the terminal.“The signal is coming from somewhere be

The cry came again.Small.Frightened.But unmistakably real.Amelia's entire body went rigid.“Did you hear that?”Damian nodded.“I heard it.”Another cry echoed through the underground facility.This time, louder.Closer.Amelia looked toward the floor.“There's a child down there.”Adrian was already working at the terminal.“I'm trying to locate the source.”The first Subject stepped toward him.“Stop.”Adrian looked up.“Why?”“Because the system wants you to find it.”Damian's eyes narrowed.“Meaning?”The boy pointed at the screen.“The Curator knows exactly what we're going to do.”A third cry echoed through the walls.Amelia couldn't stay still.“We're going.”Damian caught her hand.“Wait.”“No.”“Amelia—”“That is a child crying down there.”Her eyes filled with tears.“I don't care what trap they prepared. I'm not going to stand here and listen.”The seven children exchanged glances.The oldest finally nodded.“There is another way.”He walked toward the far wall.“There

Dozens of armed men emerged from the darkness.Amelia froze.Anastasia grabbed her arm.“Don't move.”Damian stepped in front of both sisters.“Stay behind me.”The men surrounded them.Weapons raised.Alexander stood among them, blood running down the side of his face.Amelia stared at him.“Dad…”Alexander looked at her.“Don't believe what you see.”The Curator smiled.“He still thinks he can protect you.”Damian's eyes narrowed.“You're not taking anyone.”The Curator looked at him.“I'm not here for everyone.”His gaze moved to the baby.“I'm here for him.”Amelia held her son tighter.“You'll never touch him.”The Curator smiled.“That depends on whether Damian makes the right choice.”Damian stepped forward.“There is no choice.”“There always is.”The Curator raised one hand.Every soldier lowered their weapons.Damian frowned.“What are you doing?”“Giving you a chance.”“A chance for what?”“To save your wife.”Damian's expression changed.The Curator pointed toward Amelia.
