Reborn For Revenge: The CEO’s Obsession

Chapter 1

"who's there?" My weak voice echoed in the empty room, I felt my entire body filled with goosebumps, I hated darkness the most.

Suddenly the sound of high heels clicking loudly against the cold floor jolted me out of my thoughts, the blindfold was yanked roughly off my face and I froze in shock at the sight before me.

"Isabella!! How do you get here?" I can't let the kidnappers get hold of her, she can't be in here.

"Quickly, find somewhere and hide, I know you came to rescue me but this men are deadly." I forced the words out of my lips weakly and worriedly.

"Are you really ignorant or you are pretending to be dumb on purpose?"Isabella suddenly scoffed with her hands folded across her chest, I looked up at her confused, my body was weak and hands chained to the side of the bed.

"What are you talking about?"

"Sister, ever since we were little, you always pretended to be holy and righteous, using your doe like eyes to deceive everyone into believing you, but even in your death bed, will you still keep up with this facade?"

Isabella voice came out harsh and cold, a deep contrast to the gentle and loving sister I knew, her face has contorted into rage, her gentle demeanor totally replaced by madness.

"What are you talking about Sister? I was abducted today by some robbers..."

"Ha, how naive, you should have realized by now but seems your stupidity is not going away any time soon." Her voice laced with deep malice and hatred made me paused and thought back to the incidents that happened earlier today.

I had received a text from Isabella to meet her and Xavier at the coffee shop downtown, after successfully leaving the mansion unnoticed, men fully covered in black captured me and brought me down here, they tied me up and left me here for three days, only feeding me water at interval, my eyes dimmed slightly as shock filled me.

"Are you behind this?" I prayed for a negative answer, but reality hit me hard.

"You finally connect the dot, sister even though my family cherish you for being smart, you are actually quite dull." Isabella scoffed as her heels clicked against the cold floor with her hands folded across her chest.

"Why are you doing this?" I asked weakly, I've been good to her for all I can remember, I don't see any reason she should bear hostility towards me.

In fact, out of guilt I did everything for her, I succumbed to all her wishes and even gave up my best-selling works on her name, what more does she want.

"Ha... hahaha!!" Isabella suddenly burst into a crazy feat of laughter, her eyes held deep hatred and craziness I've never seen before now, how well she managed to mask this till now I can't figure out.

"Why am I doing this? What exactly do you think I'm doing? I'm getting back what's mine, what you f*****g TOOk FROM ME!!" Her screams filled and echoed in the room.

"You pretend to be kind, obedient and calm but under that fake facade you are just a scumbag who stole my life from me, you stole everything!!" Isabelle paced round the room as she shouted hysterically, my eyes dimmed at her words.

I stole everything from her? This is the same person I scarified my lifelong dream for, the same person I gave up everything for, my sweet little sister, is this how you repay me, I moved the chains weakly to my head to remove the single strand of hair covering my face, but Isabella suddenly held my hand tightly and pushed me back roughly, my head landed on the iron bed head and I felt hot liquid flowed down my neck, my vision blurred slightly.

"I never stole anything from you, this is all a misunderstanding, it's not too late to stop this now.." I tried to talk sense into her, I still need to live, for Xavier.

"You never stole anything from me? How absurd...my life was perfect before you came in to destroy everything, I had a sweet elder brother, doting parents but they all changed towards me after you came into the family."

"They are my family too, don't you think the years I spent lost in the orphanage was also not fair to me?"

"No, you should have remained and rotted there, my life was perfect before your slutty pretendious ass came and destroyed everything, now things will only go back to normal after you are gone!!"

I panicked at her words, anger brewed with me but I struggled to maintain a calm face.

"You really think you can get away with killing me?"

"That's why I have a perfect plan to cover up your death, your husband fortune and conglomerate is already in my names, I know he loves you but it makes me sick to think he loves you to this extent, even willing to sign away his company just so you live, it makes me sick to the stomach." Isabella eyes brewed with dark envy and jealously, a side I never knew existed before. Tbe sounds of approaching feetsteps reignite the flames of hope in me, and on seeing Xavier stepped into the room, I instantly let out a sign of relief.

"She's crazy Xaxier, my sister have gone crazy, let's get out of here." I pleaded but it felt like a thousand knives stab when Xavier casually walked to Isabella and kissed her on the cheeks, his warm brown eyes which used to look at me with so much love now held deep contempt.

"Is it done?" Isabella asked with a low voice but loud enough for me to hear.

"Yes baby, everything have been set." Xavier deep musculine voice answered as his eyes lingered on my tattered appearance.

"What are you doing? You both..."

"Since your crooked head can't process this, let me help you out..." Isabella said slowly as she walked majestically towards the old rusty bulk bed that held me, her eyes brewing with fire.

"Xavier had always been in love with me, together we came up with this brilliant plan to take over your husband company and ruin your life, Killing two birds with one stone, and all the while you thought we were being good to you? While you pushed off the actual person that loves you, sister...your ignorance makes me ashamed that we bear the same surname."

"What? That's impossible, it's impossible..." Hot tears flowed down my smooth cheeks uncontrollably as I turned to Xavier, his lips raised into a cunny smirk, he raised a red envelope to me, this should be the property transfer deed.

"Your darling finance is already running like a cat to rescue you, but it would be too late by then."

Xavier suddenly stepped out to answer his phone, he came back with a satisfied smirk on his face.

"It's done, he's dead," Xavier said smugly. He didn't even bother hiding his heinous personality no more.

"You hear that? Now Moira, you are truly alone in this world, the one person that truly loves you is dead."

My eyes flickered at the mention of my fiancee. If there's anyone that I thought wished me death in the whole wide world, it would be Sebastian, but in the end, he is the only one who cared the most about me.

"No, no, you can't do this to me...I gave you everything, everything, I loved you with all my heart, why ...why..." I screamed as pains surged through me, my body shook as tears flowed freely down my cheeks.

"Love? Ha, how absurd." Xaxier sneered as he walked closer to me, his hands grabbed my chins roughly as he made me look into his emotionless and cold eyes.

"It was just control. You only need me out of rebellion, don't give me that love bullshit!!" His hands roughly pushed my face away making me spat out a mouthful of blood. I turned my head to face them weakly.

"You know you were just too easy to handle, too trusting and weak, it's was a smooth plan until your strong headed friend figured and decided to scatter our plans."

I shook my head as the words flowed freely out of his lips, no not Elle, not her.

"You know she'd probably be alive by now if she knew how to look away and mind her goddamn business."

"How...why...why!!!" I screamed hysterically, my pained voice echoing the entire dungeon, but Xaxier merely chuckled and walked back into the corner as Isabella walked slowly towards me with a needle syringe on her left arms, I was too weak to resist as she injected the content into my veins.

"Now I'd gladly reunite you both in the afterlife. My only advice, my dear sister, if you get another chance at life,, don't trust people too quickly."

With these said, they both turned back to leave while hugging and laughing hysterically, rage filled my entire body, I had been blinded by her pretentious nature and let him down, my whole body turned stiff and paralysed, it felt like a thousand and one bugs were crawling and bitting inside my skin, I wanted to scratch, to tear open my skin but even that was luxury as my entire body was paralyzed and on fire, the excruciating pain became too unbearable and I felt my body succumbing to it, as my eyes closed tiredly, I made a wistful wish, if only I can get another chance to right my wrong.
