THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE Not A Criminal
CHAPTER 89In the evening, we found ourselves in the living room, an awkward silence hanging between us that has become more familiar these past few days. Alexander was perched on the edge of the cushy armchair, his eyes fixed on the antique clock on the wall. I was sprawled on the couch, a book in my lap that I wasn't really reading."I didn't mean for things to get this complicated, Emma," Alexander finally broke the silence, his voice filled with regret. I glanced at him from the corner of my eye, my heart pounding in my chest. But I didn't respond, merely turning a page in the book."I... I just thought I was helping them," he continued, his gaze now fixed on me. "I thought I was giving them a platform, an opportunity to showcase their talent, it's complicated now but it will-."I scoffed, finally closing the book and turning to face him. "By exploiting them, Alex? By taking advantage of their dreams?"He flinched as if I had physically struck him. "I.

CHAPTER 90The drive to the company was a blur, my mind still reeling from Emma's revelations. As Alexander's sister I have a certain level of responsibility. And right now, that responsibility was getting to the bottom of this mess.I finally got to the company and my colleagues greeted me formally, I had made sure no one in the company knows who I truly am and my connection to the CEO, Alexander. I didn't want them to treat me differently. I entered the elevator and then got to Alexander's floor. I walked out of the elevator and began walking to his office when someone stopped me."No, where do you think you are barging into like that Miss Olivia?" It was Alexander's arrogant assistant, Vivian."Get out of my way Vivian or I will get you fired." I said through grinded teeth. "And 2ho do you think you are to fire me? Have you lost it?""Olivia" Alexander called and I looked up to find Alexander standing there right outside his office. I gave Vivian on
THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE LANCE
CHAPTER 91I was right about entering the pub when I felt a hand stopping my advances. "Olivia?" A familiar voice called. I recognized that voice, it was most definitely owned by the devil that came into my life. What does he wants? Why is he here? How did he find me?With great trepidation, I turned and gazed into his monstrous eyes, his devilish smirk taunting me with it's mischief. I gazed at his hand that was tightly clasping mine. Those hands hit me so many times and gave me nightmares. I trailed my eyes back up to his face. His hair, those blonde strings I was forced to brush each morning and make look perfect. His forehead, those weapons used to strike mine whenever I made a mistake. His eyes, those blood thirsty orbs that enjoyed watching me suffer in pain as a sex slave for ages. His nose, that loved to sniff in the smell of my blood, as it painted the tiles which I had to clean up later. His lips, those lips that only knew how to speak malice a
THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE That look in his eyes
CHAPTER 92Olivia's povI gazed at Lance's retreating figure as he was scared for his life. " Olivia..." I heard James turn and shifted my attention to him. His gaze bored into mine, filled with worry and concern and for the first time ever; I realized just how beautiful his baby blue eyes were."Olivia..." he called again shaking me slightly as though to make me snap out of my reverie. "Ah.... Yes... wh-". "Are you okay?" He was quick to cut me off and ask, he looked so worried and I found his expression quite cute. The lines formed in his head were a bit too much but I needed to bore this look of his into my memory. "Y- yes I'm... I'm okay." Just then, Lance finally got out of his state of shock and gazed at James with a killing intent. That look in his eyes, that look. I remembered it, it was the exact same look he had in his eyes three years ago. When he pulled out his gun from the drawer in the room while I kneald begging and screaming in hopes of
THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE Who is he?
CHAPTER 93Olivia's POVBlood, that was all I could see, James looked at me with shock in his eyes as he fell down slowly. I looked at his bleeding arm and rushed to hold him.I knew lance was out of control but I didn't expect him to go as far as shooting James out here in the public, is he crazy?. I tried talking to james when Alexander suddenly came out of the pub, he looked shocked to find James on the ground with a bleeding arm. I was just about to explain to him who Lance was so he wouldn't go acting like a hero and get shot when I heard him say his next lines that shocked me to my foundation "Lance, you need to go". He said so casually, he was sending lance away from the scene so he doesn't get into trouble with the authorities. Why? Why was he trying to help lance when he has no idea what type of a monster he is."Control your sister" lance said as he turned and left in a flurry. I looked at Alexander with questions in my head, how'd they get to
THE CEO'S NOT-SO-OBEDIENT WIFE Missing
CHAPTER 94Olivia's POV"Alright then" he said as he took my hand and kissed the back of my palms. He's such a gentleman."Mr. James will need to rest now miss". A nurse said. I wondered how long she had been standing there and if she saw us kiss. "No problem, I'll go have my bathe, change and get you some food" I said to James.I gave him a peck on his lips before bolting out of the door. I could feel his smirk after I left. I saw a doctor outside the corridor so I decided to ask him about James."Hey doctor, I'm the one who brought in the gun shot man, how long does he have to stay here before he gets discharged?" I asked the doctor as he fiddled with a notebook."And who are you to the young man?" He asked. "Well... I'm his... girlfriend. So when will he be discharged?" I asked. "Not long miss, at most just tonight and he'll be free tomorrow morning". He said as he adjusted his glasses. I sighed in relief as I heard him say that. " But um... ma'a

CHAPTER 95Olivia's POVArriving at the hospital and parking my car, I ran in to see a lady demanding to meet James. I walked up to her and asked who she was to him only for her to tell me that she was his girlfriend. Girlfriend? James had a girlfriend and her he kept coming unto me? The doctor gave me a strange look and I looked away from him.Why did I always get the useless men? I stood there dazed before someone held me from behind. I turned to see it was Alexander and I fell in his embrace. "Don't worry Liv, we'll find him" he said comfortingly. "Why not go home and rest while I deal with this?" He said convincingly. Normally I wouldn't agree but the thought of James having a girlfriend while simultaneously trying to make me one made me annoyed so I decided not to care.I drove home, tired and exhausted and met Emma on the couch. She gave me a worried look and beckoned for me to come sit with her. "Olivia, what's going on? Maria told me you arri

CHAPTER 96Olivia's POVI took a deep breathe and began the first step to my doom or salvation whichever comes first. I climbed up the creepy staircase and into the hallway. Once I got to the room I was directed, I saw James tied up and on the floor bleeding. He was beaten badly and the bandage on his arm was ripped off.I ran to him crying and scared for his life. I gave him a hug and I lay my head on his chest to listen for his heart beat just as Lance and some men walked in."Well well, what a sorry sight we have here. So after you got out of the coma, you decided to roam around with this dog? I should've killed you when I had the chance!. You've soiled my name and reputation, what do you think will happen when the media finds you fuckin around with this thing, and now I'm going to make sure I clear that stain out with his blood and your pain".
