All Chapters of The CEO she never expected: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Ella sat stiffly in the front seat while the city lights blurred past the windows. Behind her, Kourtney and Kingsley were tangled together, laughing between kisses like she didn’t even exist.“Ella,” Kingsley suddenly called. “Kourtney’s birthday is next week.”“So? What does that have to do with me?”“Shut up,” he snapped. “We’re going on a trip, and Grandpa will never allow it unless you come along. You’ll be our excuse.”Ella folded her arms. “Then pay me five thousand dollars.”Kingsley nearly choked. “Five thousand?! What are you using it for? A callboy?”“You suggested it,” Ella replied coldly. “So I tried it.”“What the hell?” Kingsley muttered. “Is his dick made of gold?”“Pay me,” Ella said calmly, “or find another excuse.”Kourtney smirked and leaned against Kingsley. “Baby, just give it to her. Five thousand dollars is nothing.”Ella stepped out of the car. A debit card flew through the air and landed at her feet.Before she could react, another car stopped beside her. A h

Aiden held Kingsley’s wrist effortlessly, his expression hidden beneath the mask.The entire balcony fell silent.Ella stared at him in shock.The callboy!.What is he doing here?, everything was going through Ella's thought.The tension in the air became suffocating.“What the hell?” Kingsley barked, trying unsuccessfully to free himself.Aiden’s voice came out cold and dangerous.“How dare you try to lay your hands on a woman?”Kingsley glared at him. “This is between me and my wife.”“And that gives you the right to hit her?”The guests began whispering louder now.Phones slowly appeared.People loved scandals.Especially rich people scandals.“Let go of me,” Kingsley snarled.Aiden tilted his head slightly. “Don’t you have regard for women?”The question humiliated Kingsley even further because everyone was watching now.Ella noticed something strange then.Aiden wasn’t nervous.Not even slightly.In fact… he looked completely comfortable standing among the elite guests at the Robe

Aiden appeared at Kingsley’s mansion the next afternoon, uninvited and dangerously calm.The estate was quieter than usual, the tension from the previous night still hanging heavily in the air. Guards stood at every corner, staff whispered behind closed doors, and somewhere upstairs, Ella was trying to convince herself she had made the right decision.She froze the moment she saw him.Aiden leaned casually against the doorway of the private lounge, dressed in black, his expression unreadable. But his eyes… his eyes searched her face like he was looking for something he had lost.“What are you doing here?” Ella asked coldly, though her pulse betrayed her.“I came to see you.” His voice was low.Controlled. “You disappeared yesterday. And whatever happened to you… it wasn’t nothing.”Ella folded her arms tightly. “You shouldn’t be here.”Aiden stepped closer. “Then tell me to leave without shaking.”Her breath caught for half a second.That annoyed her more than his presence.“You want

Ella returned from the hospital clutching the pregnancy results tightly against her chest. Every step she took into the grand Matthews villa felt heavier than the last. The doctor’s warning echoed inside her head like a curse. You must not have sex with your husband until you give birth. Any stress to the pregnancy could be dangerous. Her fingers trembled around the envelope. If Aiden found out the truth now, everything would fall apart. “Where have you been?” Aiden’s deep voice startled her so badly that the scan almost slipped from her hands. He stood at the bottom of the staircase, tall and intimidating in his black shirt, his sharp eyes already narrowing suspiciously. Ella forced a smile. “I just went out for some fresh air.” Aiden stepped closer. “Then why are you hiding something?” His gaze dropped to the papers behind her back. “N-nothing,” she stuttered. Before she could move, Aiden grabbed her waist and pulled her against his chest. “I’ve missed you.”

Kingsley found his way to one of the rooms in the villa.He sat down at the edge of the bed with his face buried in his palms.The words of his father echoed in his ears “If you insist on marrying the woman you love,I sever all ties with you and you’ll no longer be the heir of this family.I do not want to ever set my eyes on you.”Then came again the words of Ella"You want me to marry you? I can't. I won't. You already have a bride waiting for you."He saw pain in her eyes,he saw jealousy but he can't act on that because she keeps pushing him away.Kingsley stood on his feets,he walked towards the long mirror hung on the wall.He looked into the mirror and saw a reflection of himself.He flickered his fingers across the mirror and said to himself aloud “I’m a man,I have riches,I have emotions and I won't let family dictate for me.I will marry whom I love and also makes sure my family approves this marriage.It is either Ella or no one.”Aiden paced nervously toward the bookshelf as th
