All Chapters of The CEO My Accidental Lover : Chapter 61 - Chapter 68

ElodieDressed in my purple fitted gown, my hands glide down the yellow jacket hanging on my shoulder as I stretch it before stepping into my heels.Then I reach for a matching handbag to compliment it, stopping in front of my dressing mirror to catch a quick glance at myself. “A touch of gloss.” I mumble as I reapply it, then smack. After that I reach for my Boadicea The Victorious Hanuman perfume, spraying lightly at my neck and another at my wrist.“No way I look anything like someone who was just discharged from the hospital yesterday." I smile, hand gliding softly over the top rail of the glass balustrade.Liam giggles waves past me before I get to the major exit door. “Daddy, it’s too tight on my neck…”“It’s not tight,” Travis mutters, crouching in front of him, adjusting the collar. “You just like complaining.”“And where are you going?” he asks without looking up as I approach.“Work, of course.” He pauses, scanning me from my toes up to my head. “You’re not meant to do any

Travis“Are you telling me that none of the security, not even the footage, could note this vehicle?” I thunder, holding firmly around my phone like I can squeeze answers out of it.“I’m sorry, sir,” the voice on the other end echoes, weak and useless.“Apologies aren’t what I want right now. I want my son. Where is Liam?”No response comes again, I can only feel his trembling whimpers. I hiss, dropping the call.“Claudy,” I snap at my chief guard and he comes up instantly. “Deploy more men and search everywhere, both inside and outside the neighboring streets and cities.“Yes, sir.” He bows quickly and motions to the others. Their urgency ripples through as their boots shuffles and they scatter.I puff out air, pacing around the garden, already thinking of other possible solutions. “This can’t be happening now, custody proceedings are just in two days.” I mutter.Rushing back upstairs, I meet Elodie, sitting on the marble floor, her dress damp with tears, fingers trembling, but the m

ElodieI am still squeezing Travis's feet with the cold towel in my hand when the doctor snaps his first aid box shut and the echo gathers in my ear, maybe because my nerves are still rattling, “Put your fears out, okay! The sedative is wearing off, so he’ll be awake in a short time.”Thank God nothing went wrong. “Alright… thank you, doctor.” I smile, waving at him while pretending to now be in a relaxed state as he is already taking his leave.Just then, the bedroom falls back to its original suffocating silence with the man I love so much lying motionless like a log of wood and his best friend leaning speechlessly at the window side, gazing into the empty compound.I slowly put back the damp towel into the bowl of water beside me and wipe out sweats from my forehead, then thoughts come crawling.How exactly would I have explained myself to Milton’s family if something had happened to their golden son?With the whole gossip going on about my ex and I? They'd just conclude I'm on

Travis Beneath the Milton Tower lies the great council chamber. A hidden floor buried under layers of security, accessible only through control authorization known to the highest members of the family.I stand before the metallic door, resting my fingers beside the scanner as the system waits for my identity.“Travis Milton Albernathy.” I whisper calmly and the door unlocks swiftly.Inside, the chamber is exactly how I already knew it'd be, very cold and intimidating.A circular table sits at the center, surrounded by representatives of the founding families, the extreme council CEOs, code keepers, and the oversight members.The moment I enter, every face turns toward me with judgement, carrying heavy questions and sanctions that almost don't allow me to sit before it spills out.My skin feels grilled but I hold it, hoping I even get the chance to defend myself before I get consumed.Although there is no window, the temperature is maintained but now it feels sophisticated.
