A Stolen Kiss From THE CEO!-Chapter 229 - 229 A Pure And Untainted Heart
229 A Pure And Untainted Heart
Yvonne buried her head in her pillow, crying her eyes out due to her mum’s earlier reaction. She found it very hard to accept the fact that her mum had suddenly decided to stop fighting Ella.
“What did Leon and uncle Max say to mum?” She struck her pillow angrily as she cried harder.
After a while, she got up from the bed and wiped her face. She walked up to the vanity mirror on the wall and stared intensely into it.
“I won’t allow that tramp to win! I will find a way to make her life a living hell until she leaves this family. No one messes with me or my mum and goes scot-free.”
She was still busy cooking up evil thoughts in her head when her phone beeped. She instantly pulled the plug on her temporal insanity as she briskly walked to the bed and picked up her phone.
When she read a message from her husband, the sadness on her face instantly disappeared and was replaced with smiles and excitement.
Although the message was short and direct, it got Yvonne almost dancing for joy.
The message simply read:
[Maximus: Hi honey! Ethan, Cynthia, and I just arrived at the island. Surprise! We are currently making arrangements with a chattered cab driver and we will be seeing you shortly. Kisses.]
.....
Yvonne speedily arranged her room and ran into the shower to bathe. When she came out of the shower, she quickly towel-dried her hair and body, applied some body lotion, and dressed up in a captivating purple dress. She was still in the process of styling her hair when a rapid tap on the door interrupted her.
She excitedly ran over to the door and opened up.
“Guess who just arrived!” Ivory ran into her room, almost knocking her down. She was beaming with excitement, as though Santa just visited from the North Pole.
“Max and Ethan!” Yvonne screamed in a suppressed tone.
“How did you know!” Ivory’s elation knew no bounds.
“Yes!” She ran back to her mirror to finish fixing her hair.
“Everyone is outside to receive them, so you better hurry up!”
Ivory didn’t wait for a reply from Yvonne as she dashed out of the room.

Outside the house, every member of the Treshvire family, except Yvonne, happily welcomed the trio, who just arrived.
“Grandma!” Ethan jumped down from the car and ran into Marissa’s open arms, wrapping his small hands around her neck.
“Oh, my baby!” Marissa cuddled the little boy in her arms and showered his cute face with soft kisses. “I miss you so much!” Tears of joy clouded Marissa’s eyes.
“Who is the cutest nephew in the whole wide world?” Ivory sang loudly as she ran down to join Marissa and Ethan.
“I am! I am!!” Ethan’s thrilled baby voice rang in the air, filling the environment with so much love and laughter.
He released his hold on Marissa and jumped into Ivory’s arms, giving her a teddy bear hug.
While Marissa and Ivory were busy bonding with Ethan, Maxwell, Leon, and Maximus were busy exchanging pleasantries.
Cynthia, Ethan’s nanny; who didn’t get much attention due to her job description, focused on offloading their luggage from the car.
Ella stood from a distance, admiring the beautiful family reunion. She wanted to go over and welcome them but she was worried that her innocent action could result in a bitter battle where Yvonne would successfully rip out her heart.
Hence, she kept her distance from the family. She slowly walked over to the swing chair under the large Neem tree and sat down by herself. She smiled as she fed her eyes on the beautiful scene before her while gently massaging her tummy and daydreaming of what life would be like when she finally had her own children.
Just then, an elegantly dressed Yvonne stepped out of the house, commanding everyone’s attention and admiration.
“Wow! That’s my beautiful wife!” Maximus’s eyes glimmered as he quickly left Leon and Maxwell to meet with his wife.
“Mummy!” Ethan also broke free from Marissa and Ivory’s continuous worshipping, to go be by his mum.
“My babies!” Yvonne’s shimmering eyes released a few drops of tears as Ethan and Maximus, engulfed her in a warm embrace. 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗novel.𝐜o𝒎
The smile on Yvonne’s face was priceless as her husband and little adorable son kissed her on either side of her cheeks, amidst childish giggling and adult laughter.
“We’ve missed you so much, dear,” Maximus locked Yvonne’s lips in a passionate kiss.
“Ewwww! Ethan covered his face with both hands while leaving enough peeking space between his tiny fingers.
“Aww!” Ella couldn’t stop the tears from rolling down her cheek as she watched the tender moment between Yvonne and her family.
All the while, she had thought Yvonne to be the Medusa of the Treshvire family, striking at her enemies with no mercy or remorse. She never knew Yvonne had this angelic and soft nature.
Ella was also amazed to see this beautiful and motherly side of Yvonne. It was like watching a fairytale movie where the evil stepsister turns into an enchanting fairy with a pure heart.
For a moment, Ella closed her eyes and imagined that she was Yvonne. She also imagines what it would be like to get such tender and affectionate kisses from Leon and her children.
“Wow!” Ella’s face glowed as her mind drifted into a fantasy island.
She was still happily daydreaming when two soft and warm little hands touched her hands that were resting on her thigh.
She slowly opened her eyes and was met by an angelic little pair of light blue eyes beaming at her.
“Hi!” Ethan said in his cute innocent baby voice. “Are you alright? You look like a beautiful angel! Why are you sitting all by yourself? If you don’t have any friends, I could be your friend!”
“You are so adorable!” Ella gently stroked Ethan’s hands in hers while laughing and crying at the same time.
The cuteness of Ethan’s voice, his innocent and heavenly smile, his pure and untainted heart, and his unbiased love melted Ella’s heart to the core.
She couldn’t remember the last time she had the opportunity of being with a child. Ethan reminded her of her nephew, Matthew.
Ella was about to lift Ethan onto the swing chair to join her when Yvonne piercing voice almost knocked out the air from her lungs.
“Ethan, come here now!” Yvonne
