Betrayed by my ex, Loved by his brother 32: A MEETING WITH THE INVESTORS
ETHANONE WEEK LATER“Ryan, where the freaking hell are you?” I said immediately he picked the call.“We have a board meeting in ten minutes, and you know how important this is for us,” I said as I began to pace around the office.“I’m coming Ethan, you know this is all your fault, so please do not rush me. I will get to the office soon” Ryan said on the other side of the phone.I stood there, looking confused.“How the h*ll is it my fault Ryan?” I asked.“Are you seriously asking me Ethan? Really?” Ryan said. From his tone, I knew that he was very angry.“Ethan, if you had just come to the office that day, we wouldn't be doing this. By now the investors would have agreed to work with us. But no! You just had to miss that very important day.” He said.I stopped pacing around, my hand gripping my phone tightly.I tried to calm down.“Ryan… i have already apologized to you already, something really important came up that day” i said over the phone.“But you knew how important it was fo

ETHANI stared at my phone for a good five seconds, before I finally moved.“I have to pick this Ryan, I will be back” I said as I stood up, walking out of the office.I didn’t want Ryan to know who I was talking to or even listen to my conversation.I walked far away from my office, taking a look at the distance and was sure that even if Ryan burst out through that door at any moment, he won’t still be able to hear anything.I looked at my phone, and it was still ringing.I took a deep breath and picked the call, placing the phone slowly to my ear. But immediately I did that, my heart froze and my eyes widened.I stood there, not even able to comprehend what was happening.Was she crying?I had just picked up the call, and the first thing I heard was Adrianna’s sniffle.My mind began to race. What had happened and what had made her cry?“Adrianna, what is wrong?” I asked her as I began to pace around, my face laced with worry.“Why are you crying?” I asked when I didn't get a respons

ADRIANNA“I…i saw Jasmine today” i said as i looked up at him, tears streaming down my eyes.Ethan looked at me confused. I knew he couldn’t understand. He just wouldn’t understand.The pain I was feeling at this very moment was seconds to none.He took my right hand in his and looked at me deep in my eyes.“What happened?” He asked as he looked at me.I tried to calm down, using my other hand to clean my tears that refused to stop.I didn’t know if telling him what happened was the right thing, knowing how he is. But I just couldn’t hide it anymore, I needed someone to talk to, and I only had him.“Jasmine came to the coffee shop today” I began my voice low but I knew he could hear me perfectly well.“I don’t know if she just came to get coffee, not knowing i worked there or she came to mock me” i said as fresh tears began to stream down my eyes.Ethan stretched his hand towards my face and wiped my tears with the back of his hands.I gave him a smile. “T…thank you” I said.“So, she

ADRIANNA“Yes, I need to divorce Raymond,” I said as I looked at Ethan.“I am still legally married to him, even if it lasted just a day”“In order for us to get married, I need to divorce Raymond,” I said as I pointed at the both of us.Ethan gave a nod.I sighed and reclined back into the car seat, closing my eyes.I needed to breathe.“So, why have you been ignoring my calls and texts?” I heard Ethan say, making me snap my eyes open with speed.Oh shit! About that.“No I wasn't,” I said as I sat up.“Yes you were,” he replied almost immediately.“I have to go, my break is over!!” I instantly said as I quickly opened the door and jumped out of the car.“Wait… you’ve still not answered me” I heard Ethan say as I ran into the coffee shop.Heck yea, i have no explanation to give you.“Phew” I sighed as I tried to calm down, my chest heaving.I took a look around and there were customers seated. Some were smiling, laughing and having conversations with each other, while others were just

ADRIANNA Ethan moved back slowly, as he looked at me, his eyes never leaving mine.I sat there, still frozen in place at what just happened.“I’m sorry” I heard Ethan say as he looked at me.“You’re sorry?” I replied almost immediately, my brows furrowed in confusion.I had not expected it to happen, so there was no way I could have avoided it.“We…we talked about this Ethan” I said as I looked at him.The frown evident on my face.“I know Adrianna, i just…” he said as he looked at me.“No intimacy” I said as I moved back away from him.I held the door handle tightly, my hand firm and never leaving it.“I’m sorry Adrianna, i just couldn’t help it” Ethan said as he tried to move closer to me.I moved back instantly, as I pushed my hand forward stopping him from coming any closer.“Well you should have tried harder” I said and with that I opened the car door and came down from the car, looking around to see if there were any available taxis around.I signaled for one which I saw was fr

ADRIANNATWO DAYS LATERIt’s been two days since I last talked to Ethan. I had been avoiding his numerous calls, and had not been paying attention to his texts.He had sent Roland and Darka countless times to meet me but I always just ignored them and walked out.I looked up at the wall clock that was hanging in my room. It was currently nine in the morning, and i needed to be at the doctor’s office in an hour, that is by ten, and i had not even had my bath.The doctor had called me in for a check up. I needed to know how my baby was doing and to also check up on my health.I groaned as I stood up from the bed. I had begun to feel unnecessarily weak and tired, and all I just wanted to do was lay down on the bed and sleep for hours. But I knew that wasn’t going to be possible. So with my tired body, I struggled to stand up from my bed and groggily walked into the bathroom to have my bath.The bath was soothing and quick.I came out of the bathroom, shivering and with my teeth chatterin

ADRIANNA After my visit to the hospital and my checkups, I had another thing on my list to do, and that was to get the divorce papers.I was currently standing in front of my attorney’s office, well technically not mine, but he will be my lawyer for now, till i finalize the divorce.I held my purse tightly, as I walked into the office.I entered inside and I was immediately greeted by the beautiful designs that the office had.Mr. Collins was sitting in his seat checking out some paperworks.I gave his desk a little tap to have his attention, because he seemed like he didn’t notice when I came in.“Hello, mrs…” he said as he looked at me. I guess he was trying to figure out my name.I gave a smile. “Mrs. Adrianna” i said as I stretched my hand forward for a handshake.He shook my hand, and offered me a seat, which I took immediately.“So, how may I be of help to you?” Mr. Collins asked as he dropped the paperwork on the table, and took up his glasses and wore it.“Well, I need divorc

ADRIANNA “Hi” I heard from the other side of the phone.“Hello Ethan,” I said.“Hello” Ethan replied, but his voice sounded off and awfully low.I tried to ignore it.“Ehm i saw your texts and missed calls” i said.“Yea, that i left two days ago” he replied.I kept quiet and just kept staring at my fingers. I didn’t have anything to say, nor did I know what to say.This was getting awkward.“Ehm, just wanted to say hi i guess” i said as i stood up from the chair and walked out of the counter.“Okay” he said.“I have to go now,” he added.I stood there, in front of the counter, not even knowing what to say. I don’t know why, but I felt sad and hurt. I felt sad with the way he was replying to me and my heart just couldn’t take it.“Ohh” “That’s alright” I said.The other side of the phone was silent for a while before I got a response.“Yes, bye” Ethan said, and with that he ended the call.I slowly took the phone away from my ear, and just kept staring at the phone screen.Maybe he w

Betrayed by my ex, Loved by his brother 80: THE STORM 1
ADRIANNAA ring woke the tired me. I frowned. I didn’t like being disturbed while I was sleeping. My eyes were still closed, too tired to open them. I stretched my hands around my bed to find my phone.It had to be on the bed or something. Or maybe on the nightstand?I groaned. I slowly sat up, with a grumpy face. I stretched my hand towards the nightstand, my eyes still closed, and then I felt something. I knew it was my phone so I brought it close to me.I didn’t even bother checking the caller id as I was still very sleepy, so I picked up the call and took it close to my ear.“Hello?” I said with a huge hint of dissatisfaction, to let the person on the other phone know that I didn't appreciate them disturbing my sleep.The other side was silent for a while before they spoke. “Adrianna?” The person said, and my eyes immediately snapped open.I knew that voice. I instantly took the phone away from my ear, checking the caller id. My eyes darkened.Jasmine? What was she calling me for?
Betrayed by my ex, Loved by his brother 79: THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM
ADRIANNA My eyes fluttered shut as Ethan’s lips met mine. I swear I felt butterflies in my belly at that instant. It was breathtaking. Both of our tongues fought for dominance but I eventually submitted and gave in.He sucked on my lips and I moaned. It felt so good. His lips tasted sweet like strawberries, and his scent, oh my gosh.He smelt like citrus. He smelled wonderful, and I could feel my mind spiraling out of control. Ethan kissed me so passionately that my legs instantly became weak, and I felt like a puddle. I could stand straight anymore. If not for his hands on my waist, I was sure I would have fallen flat to the ground right now.After a few seconds, Ethan broke the kiss, our body very close to each other and panting heavily. We were both out of breath, our chest rising up and going down.It was a lot. “I_i_i” I tried to speak but was totally out of breath.Ethan moved his hand to my face, and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. “Breathtaking Adrianna” he said, his

ETHAN“Oh my gosh! Ethan this is so cool” i watched Adrianna splash the water with her feet. Her golden features shine bright like the sun or even better.She looked so beautiful, with her hair falling in front of her face as she jumped around the ocean, excitement evident in her face and body movements. Never had I been with a woman as beautiful as her.She was breathtaking, and could pass as an angel.I was so happy and satisfied that I had brought her here. “Come on!” She waved at me to come over. I walked closer to her admiring the beauty that was my wife.I couldn’t wait to actually get married to her. I wanted her to be mine. All mine. I wanted her to walk around high and mighty while the was called the name Mrs. GreeneI wanted to be around her every single hour, minute, second. I wanted her to be all up in my skin.I wanted to give her my attention twenty four hours, seven days a week.And most of all I wanted her to call me her husband. The thought of it excited me. To wake

ADRIANNA About twenty minutes passed. Ethan and i were all chatty and laughing, then the waiter walked in with a platter. Two other waiters followed behind him. He dropped the platter on the table, and the others followed to do the same, arranging them in order.I marveled at the dish before me. My eyes and mouth watered. It was then that i actually knew i was hungry, as i heard my stomach growl.“This looks delicious” i looked up at Ethan with eyes that spelled hunger.Ethan chuckled. “I’m glad” he nodded to the waiters and they bowed and turned around to leave.“Will it taste as delicious as it looks” i said to myself as the aroma of the delicacy in front of me traveled straight to my nose. I looked up at Ethan to catch him staring at me. My cheeks instantly became hot.“Wh_why are you staring?” I asked, blushing as I looked back down.“Hm, let’s just say I love to stare at my wife’s beautiful face,” he said, and I looked up to find him smirking.“Let’s eat” he added and right aft
Betrayed by my ex, Loved by his brother 76: DOLCE ITALIA
ADRIANNA Ethan held my hand as we walked out of the building. Eyes were on us, but I couldn’t care one bit as all I cared about was his soft but firm hands that held me so tightly, like he never wanted to let me go.We walked to the parking lot, and Ethan brought out a key from his pocket, which I figured was a car key. He held it towards a car, and it made a beeping sound. Ethan walked me to the passenger’s door, and opened it for me, watching me as I entered before closing the door. He turned around and walked to the other side. He entered, and I muttered a thank you.“You’re welcome” he smiled and started the engine. He drove out of the parking lot, and we were on our way to whatever Ethan had in store for me. *****A large building came into view. It was painted in a cream color. A gigantic signboard was hung at the top of the building. It read ‘Dolce Italia’. I stared at it for a while, trying to figure out what it meant. The word Italia sounded like Italy, but I couldn’t fi

ADRIANNA I walked out of Mr. Collins office, slamming the door behind me. I let out a deep breath.“Glad that’s settled” I muttered, and sighed in relief. I began to walk towards the exit of the building, while also bringing out my phone to give Raymond a call.“Hello?” I said, placing the phone to my ear.A voice from the other side replied. “Adrianna” he called, yawning.I guess he was still sleeping. I scoffed, what a fool.“Raymond,” I began.“I have submitted the papers to my lawyer, and we have been instructed to meet in court in four days”I didn’t wait to hear his reply before ending the call. I didn’t want to ruin my mood, I had a date to go to.My lips slowly curled up in a smile at that instant. I was going on a date with Ethan. The thought still excited me as much as it did in the morning.Remembering that Ethan had asked me to give him a call, I dialed his number and took the phone to my ear. “Mi Amor” he said, picking after the first ring. I blushed hard at what he cal

ADRIANNA I watched him walk out of my room, closing the door behind him.“I’m going on a date!” I let out a little scream in excitement as I turned around and ran to my bed. I jumped on it, careful to not land dangerously on my belly, and screamed into the pillow.“Oh I need to wear something very nice,” I said, as I sat up.“Like a dress,” I added.I stood up from my bed, and walked towards my wardrobe, but stopped.“I need to take a shower first” i said, and with that, i took off my clothes and walked into the bathroom.Not wanting to waste a lot of time, I quickly had my bath and came out shortly after. I dried my body with a towel, applied lotion, and walked to my wardrobe.“Hmm, okay what would I want to wear?” I said, as I searched through my tons of clothes. I also had to consider the fact that I was going to see the lawyer first, before eventually meeting Ethan. So, I had to wear something that was simple, but also unique and cute to go on a date with.I brought out a gown t

ADRIANNA THE NEXT DAYThe gentle knock on the door made my eyelids slowly flutter open.I tried to take in the background and everywhere, my eyes adjusted to the bright lights.The knock on the door came up again.“I’m coming” I muttered, as I stood up from the bed, and sat at the edge of the bed to get my balance before I moved.I yawned and stretched, before I stood up and walked towards the door. I held the doorknob, and turned the lock the other way to open it. With sleepy eyes, I slowly opened the door, and held my head out to see who was standing outside my door. My sleepy eyes immediately vanished, and were replaced with excitement, as I opened the door wider.“Ethan?” I said, as I took my hand to my eye, giving it a little scratch.“Good morning wife” he greeted me, excitement laced in his tone.“Good morning,” I replied.He walked into my room, and closed the door behind him, immediately enveloping me in a hug, his warmth soothing.He released me after a few seconds, and

ADRIANNA “Adrianna?” I heard someone call my name.I tried to turn around to see who that was, but all I saw was darkness.Pitch black.“Hmm”“Hmm?”“Hmm” I tried to let out words, but only murmuring sounds came out.It wasn’t until I felt a little push, that my eyes slowly started to open. I blinked at the blur I saw out, and I was starting to see clearly.The corner of my eyes was locked on a figure, and when I slowly turned my head, Ethan was standing beside me, his two hands crossed to his chest.“Adrianna?” He asked, his face laced with worry.“Hmm?” I made a sound, as I tried to sit up.“Aw” I let out a painful sound, as I felt a sharp pain in my neck area.Ethan rushed to me, and held my shoulders, worry evident in his tone and face.“Are you okay?” He asked, as he gently helped me sit up.I nodded, trying to get myself.“I_i guess I slept off, I was really tired,” I said, as Ethan helped me stand up.“I ate a few minutes ago, and I was too tired to move,” I added as I pointe
