90. Panic
"Max?" Gabriella sighed with vision starting to blur from tears. Her hand, which was no longer holding the phone, was shaking violently, just like the air in lungs burned with worry.
Seeing the woman's strange behavior, the girl who was milking the cow stopped and got up from her small chair.
"What's the matter, Madam? Is it really from the service office?” Rose asked, raising her eyebrows. “Did I fail to be accepted?”
After a while, the sobs finally released along with the tears. Gripping the girl's arm, Gabriella tried to keep breathing.
“Max .... Take me there. Please ..." the woman pleaded as she could no longer form words properly. Her brain had been paralyzed by the fear of losing.
Hearing the unexpected request, Rose suddenly furrowed her brows. "What's the matter, Madam? Why did you suddenly change your mind?”
“Please take me there!” Gabriella shrieked before spilling out more grief.
"Where, Madam?"
"I don't kno

"I'm sorry, Max. I'm sorry," Gabriella whispered even though she was choking. Her closed eyes had changed the meaning of crying as her empty heart had been filled with warmth of her husband. Stroking his wife's hair, Max took a deep breath. The heavy air no longer weighed on his lungs. He never knew that a hug could free him from suffering. "I miss you so much, Gaby. Don't ever disappear from me again." After a few moments, the couple looked at each other. Once again, the man dried Gabriella's face. "Stop crying," he asked. "I'm sorry, Max. I thought, it would be easier for you to move on. I thought you could save your job and live a carefree life without me. I didn't know that it can turn out like this," the woman said between short breaths. “Promise me, never repeat such a stupid thing again. Understand?" Gabriella nodded quickly. "I promise to always be by your side. I won't run away again." The corners of Max's lips

"Are you mad at me?" Gabriella asked when it was only her husband and herself in the room."Why should I be angry? I know you did it because you love me," Max said, looking warmly at the woman sitting on the side of the bed."But you don't seem to believe me," Gabriella said with pursed lips.Seeing that adorable look, the man automatically smiled. "Why do you think like that about Julian?"Gabriella's eyes started to spin around, looking for the first sentence to explain. "Do you know that in your father's house there is my mother's piano and trophies?"Max spontaneously raised an eyebrow and blinked flatly. "Is it true? I haven't been there in a long time."Gabriella answered with a nod. "Do you think it's possible that Julian wasn't suspicious when he saw them?""Thinking of that sly old man's demeanor, he could have lied to Julian by making up excuses."Knowing that her analysis was not accepted, the woman's breath came qui
CEO's Love in Trap 93. Solving Problem
“Can you tell me the chronology? What did the patient do before the nosebleed?” a doctor asked as he slipped the small flashlight into his pocket. Max and Gabriella suddenly looked at each other. After a small grimace, the woman worked up the courage to speak. “It happened after we did … that.” The man in the white coat automatically raised an eyebrow. "Sorry?" “Doing that, Doc. Husband ... wife," Gabriella answered in a low voice. Her face was slightly lowered to hide the blush on her cheeks. Understanding what the woman meant, the doctor nodded. “Actually, nosebleeds are common in concussion patients. But, if it could be avoided, wouldn't it be better? So, try to hold it in until the patient is fully recovered.” Seeing the suppressed smile on the doctor's face, Gabriella lowered her head to the maximum. Max was forced to hold back laugh seeing his wife's behavior. "Thank you, Doc. We'll take your suggestion," the man said, sa
CEO's Love in Trap 94. Mia
In just an instant, Amber gasped. Her blood boiled and almost evaporated, whereas her whole body shook to compensate for the uncontrollable roar of the breath. The lady did not accept that she was considered inferior to the daughter of a servant. "Julian!" she yelled, trying to wake him up. However, instead of turning his head, the man dragged Mia back into the elevator. He didn't even take his eyes off her for a second. The kiss continued until the door closed. After feeling the movement of the floor under his feet, Julian finally stopped his spontaneous action. While propping his hands against the wall, he locked the girl who was frozen with round eyes and minimal blinking. "Sorry," the man sighed as he tried to calm his breath. "I'm sorry that I dared to kiss you. You can slap or hit me now." After a few seconds, the girl lowered her previously raised shoulders. After her brain managed to gather enough oxygen, a quick sigh immediately blew
CEO's Love in Trap 95. The Necklace
Grabbing the tall glass off the table, Herbert snorted sarcastically. “Yesterday, Sebastian brought me Max's diary. From it, I know that a long time ago, he often spent time with his biological mother and father.” A second later, the old man's eyebrows rose in confirmation. "Doesn't that mean, he found out about his mother's affair from the start?" "I'm not sure, Sir. A child will not understand what infidelity is," Mia said honestly. Hearing the defense, Herbert squeaked in annoyance. “Max is a genius. Of course he knows what infidelity is. I'm sure he also knows that the bastard is his real father. But look! Until now, he still puts on a sweet look as if I am his real father. How hypocritical." “Why are you so sure that Mr. Max is not your biological son? I think both of you have many similarities,” the girl said while still holding the taser. “Why would I doubt if his own mother said so? The woman even left her necklace to give to t
CEO's Love in Trap 96. The Staggering Truth
"What is this helmet for?" Max asked as Gabriella put a headgear on him. "Don't you remember? The doctor said that you have to be careful so you don't hit your head again," the woman explained with a serious look. "But I'm fine, Gaby. This helmet will actually hinder my movement,” Max protested pitifully. Without thinking, Gabriella shook her head. "You have promised to obey all my orders if you want to participate in this mission." A second later, the man let out a resigned sigh. "I never thought that I am going to save the box that once I wanted to burn." “Stop grumbling! Come on in action! Uncle John, please pray for us,” the woman said while clenching her fists in the air. The middle-aged man behind the wheel nodded with a faint smile. “Do you realize that this idea is so ridiculous?” Max whispered as he crept into the dark with his wife and two small dim flashlights. "Yes, but you agreed." "We look like thieves," t
CEO's Love in Trap 97. Julian's Confession
“I was too afraid of being dumped. Because of it, I made up the story,” Julian said in a choked voice. “Actually, Mom gave a necklace for both of us. But, I don't accept it." The man who told the story began to wipe his wet face. His voice had been muffled by a suffocating gasp. “I was annoyed that Mom put a necklace around Max's neck, while I was asked to keep it tight. I was angry that his necklace contains a picture of Mom and you, while mine is … a man I don't know.” Hearing that unexpected statement, Herbert's breath began to falter. With trembling hands, he grabbed Julian's shoulders and shook him. "Say that it's not true! You're telling something to evade your rights.” Getting no answer, the old man's laughter began to sound insane. "You are a coward and a fool, Julian. Why do you make up such a story? It really doesn't make sense. After all, you are still my biological son, the one who deserves the top position in Quebracha.”
CEO's Love in Trap 98. The Stressed CEO
Mia had knocked on the door several times, but the CEO didn't answer. With faintly furrowed brows, the girl increased her voice. "Mister Julian?" Unfortunately, five seconds passed, the atmosphere behind the door was still silent. "What is he doing in there?" the girl grumbled before picking up her vibrating cell phone. A message just appeared on her screen. "How about it, Mia? How did Julian respond?” The secretary sighed reading Gabriella's question. After thinking fast, she put the phone in the pocket and stuck the access card to the sensor. In just an instant, the door could be opened. Seeing a girl trespassing, Julian didn't make a sound at all. He remained sitting in the CEO's chair with a flat and a dreamy look. "Sorry, Mister. I had to open the door because you didn't respond,” Mia explained as she was standing near the door. Once again, the secretary was greeted by the CEO's silence. Not wanting to waste time, she fina
