My Crazy Life as the CEO's Wife のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Caroline’s POV“Don’t do this, please! I’m begging you! Argh!” My dizziness grew worse because of how he was dragging me.“Hahaha! Why would I do that? I paid a large sum of money to get you tonight. I paid that man a fortune to pull this off. Turns out, an aphrodisiac is all it takes to get you. Come on!” He violently pulled me inside a room. I was crying and trembling with fear. Who sold me to this old hag? And why me? Even though I wanted to fight back, the dizziness and weakness were overpowering me. Earlier, a waiter handed me a drink and said it was a gift from someone. When I drank it, my world started spinning, so I went outside, but then this bald old man suddenly popped out of nowhere. What’s more frustrating is that this is a masquerade party, so I can’t recognize a single one of them.“P-please, I-I will pay you. Just don’t do this to me!” I begged.“Hahaha! You look even more appetizing to me now that you’re completely defensele—aaah!!!” He couldn’t finish his sentence w

Caroline’s POVWhen dinner finally ended, I breathed a sigh of relief. Not because my problems were over, but because they had finally left.I walked along the street alone, thinking about everything that had happened. From what I knew, Raegan was smart, talented, and kind. There were so many news stories and articles circulating about him. He was even titled 'The Perfect Heir' in the business world. Since his uncle, Tobias, didn't have any children, people said he would be the one to succeed him. I was certain I would be showered with praise once everyone found out I was the one he was going to marry.But I couldn't be happy. In our current situation, even if we got married, it felt like I was just begging for his attention. It felt like I was the mistress.The surroundings grew dark and it was starting to drizzle. I looked like a fool, walking barefoot while crying. But my attention was snapped back when a loud horn echoed through the air. A large truck was hurtling straight toward m

Caroline’s POV“Why did he even send this to me?” I stared at the box containing the dress and shoes that Raegan had sent. What is the meaning of this? After everything that happened, he wants us to go to their investors' party together? As if he didn't insult my family just recently? Sigh! It’s so hard being at his beck and call!When I arrived at the venue, the surrounding area was already packed with paparazzi. I kept calling and texting Raegan, but he wasn't answering. I decided to just get out of the car and wait by the side. As soon as I stepped down, cameras were immediately pointed at me. Fortunately, there were barricades, so they couldn't get too close to me.“Miss Caroline, is it true that you are getting married to the heir of the Del Fierros?”“How true is it that you stole your former best friend’s boyfriend?”“W-what? My best friend?” I whispered to myself. What on earth are they talking about? Luckily, the next car arrived, shifting their attention over there. I calle

Caroline’s POV“Sweetheart, you don’t have to marry him if you don’t want to. I’m sure your Dad can find another way to save our company,” Mom said gently, her voice filled with deep worry.I smiled bitterly and slowly shook my head. “Didn’t you try to marry me off to Raegan before because Dad couldn't find any other way? Why change your mind now?”Both of them fell silent at my question. The three of us were sitting in the living room. They sat next to each other on the long sofa while I sat across from them, staring at their faces, visibly exhausted and burdened with heavy thoughts.“I really have no one else to turn to, sweetheart,” Dad admitted in a low voice, unable to look me straight in the eye. “But—”“Then it’s settled. I’m marrying him.”“It’s not that simple, Caroline. Tobias is your boss and you know him.” Dad paused for a moment before continuing. “You know what kind of person he is, especially in the business world.”“Your Dad is right, sweetheart,” Mommy chimed in, hold

THE NEXT DAY“Thank you.”“You’re welcome, Tobias. Please call me if you need anything,” I said coldly, trying to end the conversation as soon as possible.“Wait.” Before I could even turn my back, his cold hand quickly held my wrist. “Stay here for a moment.”I was stunned by the sudden touch of his skin against mine, but I didn't let it show. Keeping my face completely blank, I silently obeyed him. I stood straight by the side of his desk, watching his every move.After a few moments, he suddenly loosened his necktie and unbuttoned the first two buttons of his polo shirt.I swallowed hard. I was always the one who adjusted and straightened his tie for him before he walked into meetings. Part of my job as his secretary was to make sure he always looked polished and presentable. But I held back my instincts.I needed to know my place.He was probably just feeling hot.I walked over to the wall where the remote control for the ACU was placed and slightly adjusted the temperature to coo
