The Callous CEO Chapter 119 His rescue
Brian struggled to open his eyes, feeling a sharp pain in his head as he slowly regained consciousness. Blinking against the harsh light, he found it difficult to focus at first, but after a few seconds, his vision cleared. As he surveyed the people present, fear welled up in his heart, but he quickly masked his emotions on his face.Attempting to move his hands, Brian realized that he was tightly bound to a chair. Undeterred, he strained his eyes and scanned his surroundings, but he couldn't see who was behind him. Just as he was about to turn his head, a voice cut through the silence from behind."You shouldn't bother trying to free yourself. It's pointless," the voice said, dripping with arrogance.Brian, his voice cold and defiant, responded, "If you're man enough, why don't you come out and face me? Don't hide like a coward behind my back, you chicken."The person's anger was palpable as they cursed at Brian, warning him to watch how he spoke if he valued his life. Brian, undeter

As Maggie realized that something was amiss, a flicker of concern passed through her eyes. She swiftly turned to one of her men and commanded, "Go check what that noise is about. And make sure it's nothing that would jeopardize our operation."The man nodded and quickly left the room to investigate the source of the disturbance. Maggie's anxiety grew with every passing minute as he failed to return. She glanced at her watch, her impatience evident on her face.After a few more minutes of anxious waiting, Maggie's frustration got the better of her. She barked at two of her men standing nearby, "Go find out what is taking so long! And make sure you bring back that fool who went to check."The two men nodded and hurriedly left the room to join the search for their missing comrade. Maggie paced back and forth, her anxiety transforming into anger.Once again, time seemed to stretch on, and there was still no news from the men she sent out. Maggie's anger reached its peak, and she clenched

Brian stared at Ethan, his voice trembling as he struggled to comprehend the situation. "Ethan... You can't mean that, right? You're just trying to play mind games with Maggie, aren't you? You are here for me ain't you”Ethan's gaze remained calm and collected as he looked directly at Brian, his pitiful looks were nothing to him and he didn't even show any slight change in his expression . "I never play with my words, Brian," he replied in a firm tone. "And just because I'm present now doesn't mean I'm here to save you. I have my own agenda."Brian felt a sinking feeling in his chest, his hopes crushed by Ethan's words. It was as if his world had been turned upside down. The man who had been his most loyal accomplice, his confidant, was now standing against him. The room fell into an uneasy silence as everyone processed the unexpected turn of events.“This can't be “ he whispered. Maggie's face contorted with a mixture of outrage and chaos. She had assumed that Ethan, being Brian's

Maggie, her heart pounding with a mix of fear and defiance, couldn't contain her curiosity any longer. She turned her gaze towards Ethan, her voice laced with urgency. "What do you mean by that, Ethan?" she questioned, her eyes narrowing.Ethan's smile widened as he took a few calculated steps towards Maggie, disregarding her warning. His calm demeanor contrasted sharply with the tension in the room. He looked her directly in the eyes, a glimmer of amusement dancing in his gaze. "You can try, Maggie," he replied, his voice filled with confidence.Maggie's warning turned into a threat as she raised her voice, her eyes flashing with anger. "Stay away from me, Ethan, if you don't want to witness the death of Brian!" she exclaimed, her voice quivering with a mix of fear and determination.Ethan merely smirked in response, seemingly unfazed by the consequences Maggie was suggesting. He took another step forward, the distance between them narrowing. "Go ahead, Maggie. Do what you have to do
The Callous CEO Chapter 123 Stay here
After Maggie was taken away by Joan and her men, Brian found himself untied by Kate, his body still trembling from the adrenaline and fear that coursed through him. His hands rubbed his sore wrists as he took deep breaths, trying to steady himself. Kate's worried eyes met his, and she offered him a reassuring smile."Take your time, Brian," she said softly, her voice filled with empathy. "You've been through a lot. We're here for you."Brian nodded, his face contorted with pain as he gingerly stood up. He winced, feeling the ache in his body, but he was grateful to be free from the restraints. Kate moved closer to support him, her arm wrapped around his waist.Ethan, who had been on the phone with Dan, ended the call and glanced at the scene unfolding before him. He rolled his eyes, a condescending expression on his face, and said to Kate, "I'm going to wait in the car. Take your time with him."Just as Ethan turned to leave, Brian's voice stopped him in his tracks. "Wait," Brian call

As the loud crash echoed through the air, Kate turned to Joan and Steve, her brows furrowed with concern. "Shouldn't we follow him?" she asked, her voice laced with worry.Joan glanced at Kate with a smirk, a hint of amusement in her eyes. "Don't bother," she replied casually, her tone dripping with arrogance. "He can handle himself."Kate's eyes widened in disbelief. "But he could be in danger," she protested, her voice tinged with frustration. "We should at least go and check on him."Joan looked at Kate as if she were looking at a naive child. "Do you really think he needs us to protect him?" she sneered. "Can't you see it for yourself? Ethan has become more alert, more capable after waking up from passing out."Kate pondered Joan's words, her mind racing. She had noticed the change in Ethan's demeanor, the way he had regained his strength and focus after his momentary lapse. She couldn't deny that he seemed different, but her concern for his well-being still lingered.With a sneer

As they reacted to the mansion, Kate and Dan hurriedly helped Brian into one of the guest rooms, laying him down gently. Brian's complexion was pale, and his breathing was shallow from the days events, causing concern to ripple through the group. Dan immediately got to work, trying to assess Brian's condition and provide any necessary aid.“Will he be okay” Kate asked. “He will. He is just tired “ Dan replied with an assuring look. Meanwhile, Ethan didn't linger in the room for long. He walked out, his steps purposeful, heading towards the kitchen in search of some coffee. The days work from the recent events still coursed through his mind , and he needed something to help him regain his focus.A member of the staff, recognizing Ethan's need, quickly brought him a steaming cup of coffee.

"You're acting like a child who just received a candy."Steve couldn't contain his enthusiasm, a grin spreading across his face. "Ethan, I have an incredible revelation for you," he exclaimed, unable to hide his excitement any longer. "You've just been bestowed with the same gift as your mother."Ethan looked at Steve, his brows furrowed in confusion. "What do you mean, the same gift as my mother?" he asked, his voice tinged with curiosity.Steve's eyes sparkled with a mix of anticipation and nostalgia. "Ethan, your mother had a unique ability," he began, his voice steady. "She had the power of foresight. She could see things before they happened, like a premonition."Ethan's eyes widened in astonishment. "My mother?" he whispered, his mind racing with memories of her. "But... I never knew. You never mentioned anything like that."Steve le
