CEO’s Romantic Affair

The youthful Sophia was dressed in a short tight black dress with a silk kimono-style coat and smiling with a shining face of collagen, showing all the vitality of a teenager.

She just ran over and had a thin sweat on her face. She just saw how close Luis was to Cathryn and jumped over to touch Luis’s head, and the latter turned aside with an “I’d rather die” face.

Sophia was in a good mood to forgive this childishness. She ran to Cathryn instead and held Cathryn by the arm, and said, “Jess! Where’s my bro?”

After reading the idiom story for a while, Cathryn realized she hadn’t looked up. Now, with a reminder from Sophia, she looked up around, and Keith was nowhere to be seen.

Cathryn stood up from the seat, and Sophia looked around with her. She said, “When I came home from school, I saw Ada at the gate. She didn’t have an invitation but said that you invited her, so I led her in. I had to change my dress, so I told Anne to take her to the garden. She should have arrived already, shouldn’t she?”

Sophia felt strange that she didn’t see Keith or Ada.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

When Cathryn looked around for Keith, she happened to meet Janice, who was also looking at her side. Janice saw what she was looking for and came over.

“Keith was called by Ada to the oak tree over there,” Janice pointed the finger at Cathryn.

Upon hearing this, Cathryn’s face sank slightly, then resumed a smile and said a quick “Excuse me.” to the two ladies and then walked toward the tree.

Since Ada went to talk to Keith alone here, then their grudges should be settled tonight.

Sophia saw Cathryn’s look and her heart fluttered. Blaming herself for letting her in, she immediately tried to follow Cathryn but was stopped by Janice.

“I have to go!” Sophia said anxiously.

Understanding what she was thinking, Janice said calmly, “Give them some privacy.”

Sophia was so anxious that she had tears in her eyes, and her heart was burning. Luis took her hand and placed it on his head, and went back to reading. Sophia looked down at her young nephew, who was still poker-faced, ruffled his hair, and calmed down.

It was indeed a hidden place. The garden was already big, and a row of oak trees was on the far side of the dining area. Only a string of lights was on the thick oak trees, and the faces were almost the only things visible.

When Cathryn arrived, she saw the small figure with Ada’s face and was opening her arms to the tall figure with Keith’s. Blood ran to her head, and she rushed over. When Ada was about to throw herself into Keith’s arms, she pulled Keith away.

Ada was embarrassed, almost fell, and turned her head rather disheveled. She had tears on her face and stared at Cathryn, full of anger.

“What do you want?” Cathryn looked at her with a cold face. Keith was pulled behind her, trying to talk, but was stopped.

If Ada was still able to stay calm when she was talking to Keith alone, she couldn’t as she saw Cathryn and remembered what happened earlier today.

It was terrible for a woman to break down. Ada’s hair was scattered, her dress from the noon was crumpled, and her tears were raining down her face and under her long eyelashes, she looked at Keith with a gaze, and she was affectionate and determined.

“I love you, Keith, and I believe that you love me. But why would you rather find a substitute with my look than rather be with me?”

After that, Ada sneered and looked at Cathryn, her confidence seemed to have recovered a bit. She raised her head and was quite proud.

“Miss Riley, I guess you didn’t know. When we met in a hiking accident, Keith and I were trapped in a cave, and when I was about to pass out from starvation, he cut his wrist and gave me his blood to let me live…”

Her head burst into flames, Cathryn looked at Ada’s smirking face, her mind was blank.

This was not the case in Keith’s diary.

Keith never had a romantic thought about Ada. But her face did remind him of the faint little face in his teenage memory. But he never had been more than friends with her, never been out of the box. There were rumors in the school, and he couldn’t do anything about it.

He met Ada at the school’s hiking community, and after graduation, Ada offered to make the last hike, and Keith agreed. Her original proposal included Janice and Kevin, but when Keith arrived at the appointed place, she told him that they had decided to set off in advance.

Keith never suspected anything, and he had uploaded his position with his fitness band. After the event, it was also this position narrowing the scope of the search, so the two were being saved in time.

The hike was three days. On the third day, when they were ready to return, Ada had an accident. She fell into a cave about 8 feet high and pulled Keith’s hand at the last second. Both of them fell in.

It was deliberate, Keith felt something wasn’t right after falling into the hole. But it wouldn’t help to argue with her, he only wanted to go out of that cave.

It wasn’t a new or unmanned route; however, the cave they fell into was a bit off the track. Not only was it secret, but the signal was completely blocked.

They were then trapped for three days.

During the three days, there was no food, only a small amount of water, and there were absolutely no plant residues.

Keith tried to talk less to save his energy, but Ada kept talking, about their college life together, how she’d want her future to be, and her love for Keith. She ended up holding him, who was powerless to resist, letting her go, and when they finally were found, they remained in a hugging position.
