The CEO's Doting Addictions

Elvira Duncan blinked and slowly squeezed her eyes opened . Her head felt numb and her body was paralyzed.

She couldn't move her body as swiftly as she wanted.Because of this, a lone tear streamed down her cheeks.

Waking up from a coma after such a long time, she was bound to feel this way.

She got hit by a car,a week ago while trying to save her boyfriend, Jack Morris from an accident.

The accident was so severe that she fell into coma and the doctors lost hope of her full recovery.

However, a miracle happened and she opened her eyes within just a week.

Elvira and Jack met a few years ago while working on jewelry design contest in college .They quickly clicked and fell in love.

The couple planned to get married in two weeks.However, Elvira went into a coma before then.

Thinking of how Jack handled her accident while taking care of the company,she felt pity for him.

She simply wanted to get up to get things done for the upcoming Jewelry Design competition which will change their lives forever .

Winning this competition,will ensure that Jack get his hands on his family's inheritance as well as mark his influence in the industry.

She didn't want him to miss this chance because of her.

She wanted to make sure that Jack wins the contest.

Just as she attempted to move her body,Elvira heard familiar voices drawing closer to her room.

Elvira quickly laid back on the bed and pretended to still be asleep.

"Jack,I can't wait any longer,let's just get married already.How long are you going to continue waiting for this vegetable?"

The voice belonged to Chloe Miller.She was Elvira's best friend.

They have been friends since first years in college.Elvira took it upon herself to help her pass out in flying colors.

When Elvira heard these words.She was immediately disheartened

Elvira couldn't believe that her best friend was truly having an affair with her fiancé .

"You told me that you didn't love her.How come you are still not married to me? If you continue like this,then I'm going to break up with you.Jack,I'm serious,if you don't get a marriage certificate with me tomorrow,I'll end my life!"

Chloe continued in a stern voice.Her eyes was teary and she looked serious.

"I'm going to become the best designer in Horington city after my new design wins an award.It will announce my status in the industry and tons of opportunities will come knocking on our doors.Why would you still need her?

"Celestial Group is going to become the top company in the entire Horington city after you won the contest in two days.You will also become a top designer.With this new status,we can be rest assured that we can take a leap without fear"

"However,how can we achieve this feat without Elvira? She is our golden ticket.Think! Get your mind to work,Chloe!" Jack held her hands and said,while looking into her eyes.

Chloe was speechless for a couple of seconds.It looked as if her sense organs had been struck by reality.However,the next splitting second,she angrily flung Jack's hands away.

She pushed him away and pointed her fingers at his face and said,"Do you take me for a fool? How is Elvira of any help to us? She is just a vegetable.She can't do anything"

Chloe looked at Elvira,lying helplessly on the bed as she uttered those words.

"This is all your fault.It was your fault that Elvira got into the accident.You shouldn't have hired those men to attack her in the first."

Jack Morris glared angrily at Chloe.

The sound of his voice echoed through the room and Elvira went numb upon hearing these words.

"If you hadn't hurt her then she would have been well and hearty.Infact,she would have completed the final touch of the designs."

"Not only that,we would gotten the final products of her designs.Now,we are stuck in this situation,thanks to you."

Jack looked frustrated.He glared furiously at Chloe.

"Wait,are you blaming me? I did everything because I loved you.I didn't want her getting in between us.How could you blame me for this? Moreover,she is not even aware that I sent those men"

"Look here,Jack,you and I know that Elvira is not smart enough to decipher the reality before her.She won't even think that I would do such a thing to her."

"Of course,she can't think of it because I made it look like my rivals were after me and she took the fall for me."

Jack said as his eyes darted towards Elvira.

"Tell me,is that the reason you refuse to marry me? Have you suddenly fallen in love with her since she became your super heroine?"

Chloe asked,her expression changed.

"Not again,Chloe! I told you,we still need her to grow the status of the company"

"Alright,we still need her but that didn't stop us from getting married behind the scenes,right?"

Chloe blinked her eyes and looked at Jack seductively.

"Are you being serious? What if she finds out when she wakes up? We'll be at a dead end"

"You worry too much for a brilliant mind.Elvira is not smart enough to detect"

Chloe was so sure about it.

"Fine,let's get the marriage certificate first thing tomorrow morning.After that,I'll ask the doctor to force Elvira into an inducement"

Jack said and his eyes glow with eeriness.

Elvira gritted her teeth and widened her eyes wishing she could stand up and beat up the shameless couple.

The tone of their voices sent anger down her throat and she felt terribly nauseated.

She clenched her fists so tightly that it ended up digging deep into her palms and blood oozes.

Doing this,she tried to suppress the anger in her chest and tried to avert the desire to walk up to them right then.

She never expected that her whole life will end up like this!

Elvira Duncan came to the limelight three years ago after winning the Fame Jeweler Competition

Because of this,her popularity sprang out through out the country and she got many opportunities.

Many notable companies in Horington offered her employment opportunities,including one from Ethereal Jewelry.

However,she was too busy helping out Jack Morris.So,she rejected all the offers that came her way.

She was so engrossed with helping Jack grow the branch of the Morris Group -Celestial Jewels that was given to him as part of his growing up test that she lost track of things.

Two years she was ousted from a contest when someone accused her of plagiarism.

The entire world criticized and made fun of her efforts.She searched the entirety of her designs but she couldn't find a fault with her work.

Jack Morris,was by her side at this time.

Jack proposed that Elvira worked behind the scenes while Chloe attended the competitions and get the credits.

She thought that Jack loved and valued her presence that was why he wanted her to take charge of things.

However,she was just another puppet in their hands.

The audacious couple has been lovesick while she took the force upon herself to help Jack grow the business without any help from the two of them.

Suddenly,she found that she had been fooled by them

Thinking about,made her dwell in self mockery as it occurred to her that the signs were there.

Being fretful for quite a long time.Elvira finally heard the footsteps of the slime ball and the vamp departing the room.

Thankfully,it was dead of the night.So,nobody could see that she was awake without coming closer.

Also,her ward room was farthest from the rest of the rooms in the hospital,it was safe for her to roam around without discovered.

She quickly stood up from the bed and frantically search through the bed stand.

Her lips coiled into a thin smile when she found her phone in the drawer.

It was a good thing that her phone didn't get damaged during the accident.

Elvira picked up the phone and searched through her contact lists.

"I need your help right now.Can you bring me a few documents from my house?"

Elvira said,immediately the call got connected.

"Wait,are you a ghost? Are you really awake now?

"I don't have much time.I'll send you the details of the items I need"

Elvira hung up the phone after that and sat down on the bed with tears in her eyes.

"This is the last time,I'll cry for you.Now,I'll make you two cry"
