The Domineering CEO Chapter 1 FLASHBACK I

FLASHBACK I

Somewhere in Platoon villa at the Brown's mansion, one could see the fury Mrs brown sitting on the sofa in the study room, stomping her feet on the floor repeatedly.

"This is what you do to us after all we've done for you , you are nothing but a disgrace just like your mother" -she scoffed.

"What do we expect from an illegitimate child like him"- Freya said one could hear the disdain in her voice she has never liked her step brother ever since he came in.

"He's a loser"-Brian said observing his step brother who was by the corner of his father's study room with an evil smile.

"As expected from a mistress son,he-"

"All of you be quiet!! a man in his late fifties walked in angrily looking at Brian with disappointment.

"Father" he said like a child with a shattered heart.

"I do not want to hear a word from you" -Mr brown said and sat on his seat then he looked towards the quiet boy standing at the corner of the room.

"What is this that I hear?"-he asked which was then followed by a short silence. " I'm asking you a question Milton!!– What is this that I hear?- he shouted in anger "Do not keep me quiet when I speak to you"

"Are you really going to keep your Father quiet?, even if you act mute for a while behave like a real son of your father, he's been nothing but nice to you, we just want to know the reason why you did that at the banquet- Milton darling you should speak up – Mrs brown said, one would think she really cared about him.

"Father it's not what you think, I wouldn't do anything that inappropriate to Brian's fiance it's all a set up"- a deep but yet still voice was heard. Milton raised his head looking at his father with utmost sincerity wondering if he will be understood by anyone in this room, he knew he would be disappointed but there was this little brim of hope in him that made him think there would be an affection or love shown towards him

"Who set you up then? , My fiance?!! Urrghh you are really something" Brian said angrily rushing towards Milton with a punch to his face.

"Brian!!!" - his mother yelled

"Enough you two!!" Mr Brown said-the veins on his forehead were about to pop out because of anger one could notice the annoyance in him. He closed his eyes for a while then let out a long sign like one who was stopping a volcano from exploding then he spoke up.

" Milton you'll be going to the US to study, I think it's the best decision for you, you can spend as many years as you want just stop giving this family an headline" he said with an heavy heart,he has always loved this son of his,the world is vile and cruel he just wanted him to be safe. Saying this he walked out of the study room steadily going straight to his room.

Everyone started walking out of the study room rolling their eyes at Milton, Mrs brown walked up to him

"This is not the end of your suffering, this is only the begining I would advise you take this offer your father is giving you in a platter of gold now because I can't guarantee you a good life, I've never given you a reason to smile, have I? Mrs brown grinned evily.

"I'll be going to my room" Rollins who had not uttered any word since the gathering said walking out of the room. He has always been the quiet and observant one among Mrs brown children. he always acts unpredictable thus no one knows what he thinks he barely converse with his siblings.

"Must he ruin the atmosphere with his speech?,arrgh he annoys me with his attitude" Freya said clearly upset.

"Don't speak ill of your brother that way Freya" her mother said unhappily

"Okay , I'll be in my room upstairs" she said- she knew her mother shouldn't be toyed with, her temper was the last thing Freya wanted to see, her mom can be so scary when pissed off.

Mrs brown looked at Milton with a stern look and walked out leaving just him and Brian in the study room. Milton looked at his face through the mirror in the study, there was blood at the corner of his lips which was caused by Brian's pinch, sometimes he had always wanted to tear up but he has to hold it in he wouldn't let them see him weak but this time he was very angry, not angry because he was humiliated but because he couldn't do anything to improve his situation maybe it was really best for him to travel abroad at least there would be peace and less drama for him.

"Milton"Brian called out making him jolt out of his thought

"How does it feel to ruin that face of yours?- feels good right? I thought as much he said smiling wickedly, Miss Ava of Winstar group and co had always had eyes for you ever since we were little and would never even bat an eye towards me,"

"Yes she is my fiance but she doesn't love me, you know who she loves? it's you, you , always you"he said almost cursing

"Then how is it my fault? is it my fault for you not being outstanding enough,if you were outstanding she wouldn't have looked at me ,is that why you set us up? a deep,calm yet charming voice echoed in the room.

"Yeah, I spite her drink thinking she would come look for me as her fiance but no she went to my amiable brother and made that scene in front of everybody including the media, now guess who'll be popular on the headlines tomorrow, You!" he said sarcastically.

" Her reputation is still at stake considering she being your fiance ,Don't you think? and father wouldn't seat back and watch this piece of news affect his stock price so you failed" Milton said

"You know what I hate the most about you is your calmness, how can you be so calm in a situation like this?, you know what I hate you just get lost, you should better go abroad to study or I might strangle you to death" he yelled then stomped out of the room angrily

Milton signed suppressing his anger, he looked at his face once more in the mirror and left the study to his room where he revolves round his own world.

"I wish mom was here to comfort me" he thought as he walked towards his room.

Flash Marriage To My Best Friend's Father

Madel Cerda

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch-a titan of industry and my best friend's father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.

No Longer Mrs. Cooley: The Architect's Return

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.

He Thought I Was A Doormat, Until I Ruined Him

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.

The Discarded Heiress: Marrying My Lethal Husband

The Discarded Heiress: Marrying My Lethal Husband

Xiao Wang

The rain in Detroit was slick with grime when my family finally came to fetch me. They didn't want a reunion; they wanted a sacrificial lamb to marry into the Kaufman empire to save their failing business. I thought I was just being sold off, but the limo ride ended under a dark overpass where six hired thugs were waiting with chains. My own sister had ordered them to "break my spirit" so I’d be a shaking, pathetic mess by the time I reached the altar. They called me "Detroit trash" and sprayed air freshener when I sat on their leather seats. My stepmother wanted a video of me begging for my life, and my father was ready to trade me like a used car to a man everyone called a "vegetable." They expected a submissive country girl, unaware that I was a high-level "cleaner" who could snap a radius bone before they could even scream. When I finally reached the Kaufman estate, I found my fiancé, Barron, slumped in a wheelchair, drooling and silent. But as soon as the doors closed, the "invalid" grabbed my wrist with a grip of iron and whispered a command that changed everything. I didn't understand why my own blood was so desperate to see me destroyed. What had I ever done to deserve a hit squad and a forced marriage to a man they thought was a corpse? But Barron isn't a vegetable, and I'm not a victim. We just touched down at the Moon family gala in a matte-black helicopter, and as the doors slide open, the "broken" bride is about to show them exactly what happens when you throw away the wrong daughter. "If we're going to crash a party," Barron whispered, his eyes burning with lethal clarity, "we should make an entrance."
