Chapter 13 The New CEO 

I stared at Xavier, then at the butler. My mind was spinning

This is too much,I muttered, running a hand through my hair. I can’t process all of this in one night.” 

The butler folded his arms and turned to Xavier. Do you really trust her?he asked. She was with Michael for years.” 

Xavier’s gaze didn’t waver. Rachel stood up for me when Maria and Gerald came over earlier. And she has her own reasons to hate Michael and his family.” 

I lifted my chin. You don’t have to worry about me keeping your secret,” I said. I will.” 

Silence stretched between us

Then I let out a tired sigh. Look, I’ve had a long night. I just want to sleep. Tomorrow is going to be even longer.” 

Xavier exchanged a glance with the butler before nodding. Alright. Get some rest.” 

With that, they left, and I collapsed onto the bed. Sleep came almost instantly

The next morning, my alarm blared, pulling me from my deep sleep. I groaned and turned overonly to come face to face with Xavier

He was lying beside me, watching me with an amused smirk

Good morning, wife,” he said smoothly, leaning in to press a playful kiss to my cheek

I pushed him away, blinking in disbelief. It feels like I had the craziest dream,I mumbled. “I saw you walking and talking like a normal person.” 

Xavier chuckled. It wasn’t a dream,” he said. You better get used to it.” 

I shook my head and got up. I don’t think I ever will.” 

After taking a long shower, I dressed in a sleek black dress and heels

I had work to do. Today, I was officially stepping into my role as heiress

Xavier watched me as I got ready, his eyes lingering

Try not to miss me too much,he teased

I rolled my eyes and grabbed my bag. Don’t get caught walking around, husband.” 

His laughter followed me out the door

At the office, my grandparents were already waiting for me

You’re finally here,Grandpa said as I stepped into the conference room. Are you ready?” 

I nodded. Let’s do this.” 

The board of directors sat around the long table, their eyes curious as they studied me

My grandmother placed a reassuring hand on my shoulder before turning to address them

This is Rachel,” she announced. The new heiress of the company.” 

Murmurs filled the room. Some faces lit up in approval, while others remained unreadable

Welcome,” one of the directors said, nodding

I met their gazes firmly. I appreciate the welcome,I said. But for now, I’d like to keep my identity private.” 

More nods. No arguments

Good

As the meeting wrapped up, my grandparents pulled me aside

How is the marriage going?Grandma asked gently

I hesitated for a split secondthen my mind flashed to last night. Xavier’s teasing smirk

The hickey he left on my neck. The little argument in the bathroom

I instinctively touched my neck and smiled

It’s fine,I said. The marriage isgood.”

Grandpa raised a brow. Are you sure?” 

I nodded. Xavier is a naughty child, but I can handle him.” 

Grandma chuckled. If you ever need anything, don’t hesitate to come to us.” 

I smiled. I will.” 

As I stepped outside the building, I let out a deep breath. It was done. I was officially the 

heiress

But just as I was about to get into my car, a sleek black Ferrari pulled up in front of me

My stomach twisted

No. 

Michael and Susan stepped out

The last people I wanted to see today

I turned on my heels, determined to walk away, but Susan’s voice rang out

Rachel!” 

I closed my eyes briefly before turning around, forcing a blank expression

Susan’s lips curled into a toosweet smile

What are you doing here?she asked. Are you looking for a job? If you need help, Michael 

can-” 

I scoffed. Cut the crap, Susan.My eyes flicked to Michael. Both of you. Show your true 

colors.” 

Michael’s jaw tightened. Stop harassing her, Rachel.” 

I let out a humorless laugh. Harassing her?I shook my head. Don’t make me laugh, Michael.” 

He took a step closer. Where have you been?he demanded. Why haven’t you been answering my calls?” 

I crossed my arms. “That’s none of your business.” 

Michael ran a hand through his hair, clearly frustrated. “Rachel, I have a meeting with the CEO of this company. If you need a job, I can put in a good word for you.” 

I stared at him for a moment. Then I burst out laughing

Michael frowned. What’s so funny?” 

I smirked. You really think I need your help?” 

He sighed. You’re always so stubborn.”

I tilted my head. Congratulations, by the way.” 

Michael blinked. For what?” 

Your engagement to Susan,I said smoothly. You’ll be getting married soon. Having another child.” 

For a moment, guilt flashed across his face
