Chapter 26: Exposed Maia
Maia
Clyden looks like a totally different person out there. Observing closely, he reminds me slightly of himself in college—before we got married. Before the accident, he felt a little bit distant and cold. Right now, he could even crack jokes in front of serious people.
He was now done with his speech, and it was now time for him to answer some questions coming from the reporters. At first, all of them were just normal questions pertaining to his future plans with the company. However, the last question made everyone look at the reporter in shock.
“I’m sure that we’re all curious about this, but we’ve all seen earlier how you treated this one girl.”
My eyes widened in shock as some people glanced over my way. Edith and Jasmine also turned to me quickly, causing me to look down on the tablecloth.
Camille went near my ear and whispered, “Oh fuck, she’s talking about you!”
“Can you d

Maia “Made for each other, huh? How exactly are you and my wife made for each other?” We both turned around to see Clyden towering over us with his arms crossed. He raised his eyebrows then turned to both me and Lucas. Lucas pushed back his chair and also stood up. He faced Clyden, and although he was a little bit shorter than him, it was only by a few centimeters. “Welp, that’s my cue to leave,” Lucas said and attempted to leave. However, Clyden held onto his shoulder and smirked. “No, it’s okay, Mr. Lucas Ledger. You can stay. I’m actually a little bit curious about what you just said to MY wife.” I clicked my tongue and tugged on the hem of Clyden’s suit. “Clyden, let him go. We didn’t talk about anything special.” “Hmm,” he said and looked at me. “That might be the case to you, but I wonder what the case is with Mr. Ledger right here.” Lucas sighed and removed Clyden’s hands away from him. “What a stubborn man you are. I gu

Clyden“Wee Woo! Wee Woo!” Maia started acting like an ambulance the second Camille and I carried her to the kitchen.“Settle down. Settle down, love,” I said and caged her in my arms.“I’m an ambulance! Let go of me, you douchebag! I need to save people's lives!” She said and tried pushing me away from her. However, I kept my grasp tight because who knows what she’ll do when I let go of her.Camille facepalmed and said, “How the hell did I get those drinks mixed up? Maia’s going to kill me tomorrow.”“It’s too soon to talk about tomorrow. How will we get Maia upstairs without other people noticing?” I asked.Camille waved her hand. “She’s fine. Just lead her upstairs then it’s all good. Just let her sleep it off!”Just then, Maia was able to get out of my grasp and started performing CPR on a loaf of bread on the counter. &ldqu

MaiaI snuggled closer to the warm pillow. This is probably the warmest pillow that I’ve hugged. However, it was a little bit hard, so I tapped it gently to fluff it up. The ‘pillow’ didn’t fluff up at all, and it became even harder. Confused, I wandered my hands around and felt the pillow move beneath me.I finally opened my eyes and saw two big mountains beneath my face. I looked up to see Clyden’s smirking face as I held onto his abdomen.“Enjoying yourself?”I broke away and moved to the farthest corner of the bed. I looked around the room and felt relieved when I saw that it was my room. But, what is Clyden doing here? Wait… How did I even get here? And why is he naked? I panicked and peeked through the covers to see if I was also not wearing anything.Clyden chuckled. “Relax. We didn’t do anything. I wouldn’t do that without your formal consent.”I nodded my
The CEO's Forgotten Wife Chapter 30: Jasmine's Plan
JasmineI woke up in a bad mood since that bitch Maia was getting on my nerves. Not only did she enter later than me, but she even dressed up in a nicer gown during last night’s party. I even ruined her black dress so that she’d be embarrassed in front of the media and the other guests, but that bitch always has something up her sleeves. She’s really so sly.You might all be wondering why I hate her so much, and I’m going to tell you all the reasons why.Growing up, my mother really never paid that much attention to me. She always took Clyden’s side and opposed my requests. I knew that we weren’t well-off in the financial department, but is it too much to ask for some luxury items as a teen? Is it so bad that I also wanted to party and stay out? While all my other friends had the privilege to get into yachts, VIP clubs, and the like, I couldn't afford any of those since my family was too stingy to give me the money for it. She

Maia1 month laterAfter the news of Clyden’s and I’s marriage broke out, we were the talk of the town for quite some time, but like every other news out there, it also died down as time passed by and as other interesting events also came about.At first, there were some media outlets that came to our house every day to get a second statement from Clyden, but after a while, they also gave up when he did not heed their requests. And although the Ledgers were a little bit offended by the news, they did not give up as Clyden’s company’s major shareholder because his company is doing so well. Backing out from it would just be a loss for them.Now that Clyden is all better and his injuries have all healed up, he’s working little by li
The CEO's Forgotten Wife Chapter 32: Clyden's Company
ClydenI’m currently sitting inside my car, waiting for Karl to come and fetch me. Since it’s been about two months since my accident and I don’t have any external injuries anymore, I decided to visit the company to familiarize myself with the environment and to get some updates about its signs of progress.I saw Karl coming down the stairs of the parking lot, so I opened the door, got out of the car, and locked it.“Good morning, sir,” he bowed.“Don’t bow at me anymore. It feels like I’m a crown prince or something.”He simply nodded his head and pointed towards the entrance. We climbed up the stairs, and I took a deep breath before the main entrance of the building.It was about 10:00 in the morning, so I’m guessing that the employees were already here. Once I entered the building, almost everyone turned to me. Some even whispered to each other, but I didn’t pay them any at
The CEO's Forgotten Wife Chapter 33: Maia's Talent
Maia Clyden and I were currently inside his car, driving towards the charity event. Grandma Edith and Jasmine went to the venue before us because Jasmine had to get ready for her performance. I squeezed my hands in anxiety and let out a deep breath. Clyden noticed this and hovered his hand over mine. His single hand was able to cover both of my hands. “Why are you nervous?” He asked. I felt comforted by the warmth of his hand. “I—I’m just feeling nervous now that I'm meeting new people. What if they hate me? Oh god, what if the media roasts my looks?” Clyden chuckled and held my hands tighter. “What are you talking about? The last thing that people could roast about you is your looks. I mean, look at you!” I glanced down at my white body con dress and leaned on the car seat. “I don’t see anything special.” “Hey, don’t say that. You’ll be the most beautiful woman in that event,” he said. I looked at him incredulously and
The CEO's Forgotten Wife Chapter 34: Maia's Victory
Third Person’s POVThe once passive audience suddenly became more awake as they looked at the beautiful figure on the stage. Most of them were looking at her in curiosity, while some in maliciousness. Jasmine, Edith, and Addison, in particular, were delighted to see Maia becoming flustered on the stage. When she tested the violin, and it made an unpleasant sound, their hearts almost burst out in joy.“Let’s see how brave she is now,” Edith whispered to the young women, then they giggled to themselves.Jasmine looked around and saw the people’s anticipating faces. She couldn’t wait until Maia made a fool out of herself. As far as she knows, Maia is not interested in classical music and does not have any talents in this field.She tapped her thighs in excitement. ‘I can’t wait until she embarrasses herself,’ she thought in her head.Maia finally finished tuning the violin, so she closed her eyes a
