Everyone was in awe as they watched Ethan, who showcased his inappropriate behavior in the public.

None of the reporters present believed that Mr. Philip’s son was as aggressive and stubborn as he appeared to be.

This caused their heart to leap in excitement, especially because they got something more spicy and juicy to add up to the story.

Mr. Philip had summoned them for a press conference to address the issue of having a child somewhere with another woman.

They had just finished listening to his story and as though luck were shining on them, they met his son who was behaving like someone who has just escaped from asylum.

“What? Haven’t you all stared at me enough?” Ethan asked aloud as he broke into a loud and hysterical laughter.

“Go and get busy, you nosy fools! Go on and write what you’ve seen today, idiots!” He insulted them and made to leave when he stopped right in his tracks.

“And yes! Just a little warning to never hold me next time you see me”, Ethan said, and threw qui

    Carissa stood at the front of her window as tears trickled out of her eyes.She was the most pathetic person on earth, and she needed no one to tell her that.For days after the failed wedding, she remained indoors, without an idea of what next to do or how to do it. She was certain that she couldn’t hide under that excuse for so long because the doctors already confirmed that she was doing great and only needed to rest for a couple of days.And subsequently, she is expected to put forth another date for her wedding.She sniffed hard when she realized that it was a burden which she alone understood. It was her cross to carry and somehow, she wished that someone could understand.Her door knob turned and immediately, she cleaned the tears off her face and wore her usual pretentious smiley face.“Carissa”, Mrs. Williams called out as she walked towards her with a giant smile on her face.“I thought you were taking a nap or something like that”, She added, while Carissa smiled and shook

    “I’m ready to talk now!” Ethan said as he stood at the door of his father’s study.Mr. Philip glanced at him and, with a smirk, gestured for him to walk inside.The atmosphere turned dead silent as they both stared at each other.Ethan was furious, but then, he knew how fierce his father could be in some situations. If he needed to have a conversation, then he had to be calm.“Is it really true?” Ethan asked calmly, still clenching his hands in fury.“I presume that you should start off with an apology. You have no idea of the state you placed this company in”, Mr. Philip said with a giant scowl on his face.It was barely twenty-four hours since what transpired at the company, and several media outlets were already talking about how irresponsible the family is.“I’m sorry, but…”, Ethan said as he gritted his teeth and kept mute the moment his father raised his hands.“I apologize for all of these. It wasn’t planned, and I had no idea”, his father started saying, while Ethan let out a

    “I hate you”, Ethan said as he pointed at his father with a trembling hands.“I hate that I do everything you ask me to do, and I hate that I’m living this kind of life”, Ethan said angrily and made his way out of the study.“Ethan!” Mr. Philip called as he stood to his feet and walked towards him.“Fix a wedding date, have your wife, and be the ideal heir according to the public. Your brother would be coming to live with you soon, and you don’t want him to trample on you”, He dropped, while Ethan clenched his fists and walked out of the study.He got to his room and let out a loud scream, after which he fell to the ground and broke into silent sobs. With rage burning in him, he stood up and shattered the flower vase that laid on his desk, ignoring the voices of some servants who were knocking on his door.He felt totally broken and devastated that for a minute, he wished he never existed.At the end of the day, he realized that again, he needed to do as his father had said.

    “I just need to take a walk. I would be back before you know it”, Stan said to Kiara, who was clinging to him like a child.“I decided to come spend the night with you. I planned that we would watch a movie, have a chat, and you know, share some moments together”, Kiara said as she held Stan, giving him her puppy eyes that did well in getting him irritated.“Just a walk, Kiara!” Stan said defiantly, trying so hard to avoid getting her pissed.The last time he had gotten her angry, she had reported to her father, and that caused him to get some deduction from his salary.Not only that, he had also been threatened by Mr. White, with a clear and detailed explanation of how he would deal with him if he gets her angry again.“How many minutes would it take you?” Kiara asked as she peered piercingly into his eyes.“Maybe an hour”, he said and smiled pretentiously.His heart ached each moment he did something out of pretence. With every day that passed, he was beginning to discover that he w

    “Look at what my mother gave me”, Carissa said with a wide smile as she picked up the invitation card and passed it to Ethan.Ethan reluctantly collected it, trying so hard to conceal how disappointed he was with how she quickly had a change of topic.“What is this?” He asked with a giant frown on his face.“It’s a couple's funfair. I mean, my mum thought that it would be so great to attend it together with you”, Carissa said with a considerable smile on her face.She felt totally uneasy and deep down, she hoped that his attention would be drifted off the question he had asked.“This looks interesting”, Ethan mumbled under his breath as he dropped the card on the bed and returned his attention to her.“Carissa, sometimes I wonder if you realize how much I love you”, he said as he peered into her eyes intently, as though trying to discover something she was hiding.Stan stayed still outside the window, listening to their conversation and boiling in rage.A second ago, he raised his voi

    “Tell me that you love me. You have no idea of how much I crave to hear those words from you”, Ethan said as he held her hands and peered piercingly into her soft eyes.Outside, Stan prayed that she wouldn’t utter those words to him. He needed no one to tell him that it would shatter his heart to the tiniest bits, and he wasn’t ready for that.“Carissa, tell me you love me”, Ethan persisted as his blood started boiling in fury.He couldn’t understand why she was scared and frightened of those words. To him, it was something that could be said anytime and to anyone, even without being serious about it.He had done it several times; telling countless ladies that he loved them. They always replied to him almost immediately, and that caused his heart to be at ease.He knew that none of them meant it, as they were only after his money. However, none of that seemed to bother him. Carissa was headstrong and different in that aspect, and that was beginning to get Ethan furious.“You can’t te

    “What was that noise?” Ethan asked as he quickly moved away from her and scurried towards the window.Carissa’s heart flew off her chest the moment she realized that it was definitely Stan.She quickly rushed to the window to block him from having access and taking a peak.Stan had mistakenly lost his balance while he was staring at them from the window. This caused him to trip and immediately, he landed on the floor with a thud.“Shit!” He cursed as he struggled to get up to his feet.His back ached badly and with a groan, he finally stood up and limped out of the premises and towards his car which was parked at the far end of the street.“I guess it’s a squirrel”, Carissa said with a nervous chuckle.“Then I need to confirm that myself. What if it’s a dangerous animal or, even, a human?” Ethan asked with a giant frown on his face.He was a very sensitive person and to him, there laid something hidden in every situation.“A human? That’s ridiculous”, Carissa said again, trying so har

Are you okay?” Kiara asked the moment she caught sight of Stan, who was grimacing in pain and walking towards her.“I just need to take a quick bath and then, get some sleep”, Stan said as he walked past her and headed directly into his room.Kiara scrunched her brows in confusion and quickly sauntered behind him, trying to touch him but flinching the moment he shot her a dead glare.“How about the movie night we planned? What happened?” Kiara asked as a frown made its way to her face.She stopped right in her tracks the moment Stan banged the bathroom door on her face.Stan switched on the shower and buried himself in the feeling that came off it. His body was burning, and all he craved to do at that point was to let out a loud scream.He whimpered silently as tears finally fell off his eyes and mixed with the shower that poured on his body.He recalled the statement Carissa had made to Ethan and again, he felt a huge pang on his heart.“Maybe I finally lost her”, Stan though

    The couple’s fun fair, which Carissa thought would make her and Ethan better in their relationship turned out to be worse than she had thought. Not only did she meet her ex lover, but he was in the hands of another lady.“Why didn’t he tell me that he had a girlfriend?” Carissa asked herself as she tossed uncomfortably on the car seat.“Are you okay?” Ethan’s voice disrupted her thoughts and as usual, she put up a smile that didn’t get to her eyes.“I’m very fine. I had fun today”, Carissa lied, but wasn’t swift enough because Ethan observed it.“Are you sure about that? Your expression contrasts with what you just said”, Ethan pushed further, throwing questioning glares at Carissa who tried to remain aplomb.“I’m sure about that”, Carissa replied and took in a deep breath. “How about you? You appeared so cold and different the moment your eyes landed on Stan”, Carissa said and peered piercingly into his eyes.“You appeared extremely disturbed when you both had a dance together. I sh

    Carissa closed her eyes as she took in the soft lyrics of the song that played. With Stan’s hands on her waist, she could swear that she was on top of the world.“Tell me you didn’t miss me”, Stan’s breath on her bare shoulders caused her to jerk back to reality.“Look at me, Carissa”, he ordered, with his hands on her waist trailing towards her bare back as though he were driving towards pulling down her zip.“What do you think you are doing?” A wide-eyed Carissa asked, suddenly freezing in shock.“I’m doing something I’ve missed”, Stan replied, caressing her back with his fingers, just as the dance continued.At this point, Carissa felt extremely uncomfortable as she dreaded getting caught by Ethan.She had known Ethan for a little while, but she could swear that he would never take it lightly with Stan.“You can’t do anything strange here. People are here and Ethan is there as well”, Carissa said as she swallowed hard and darted her eyes towards Ethan, who was lost in the dance se

    “What? Me?” Carissa asked in shock the moment she found everyone’s eyes attached to her.“Come forward beautiful lady”, The man on the microphone went further, after which an uproar of applaud rented the air.“Oh God!” Carissa cursed under her breath, timidly making her way to the front of the podium.She was a quiet and simple girl who hardly loved attention. At such, it was quite difficult to walk firmly with the eyes of many people on her.Most times, she wondered how she would be able to cope with Ethan as the wife of the billionaire.The numerous paparazzi and attention from individuals of the society was something she was yet to prepare her heart for.She darted her eyes to the far end of the crowd where Kiara was cheering on to her, clearly in the spirit of excitement.Carissa’s face fell the moment her eyes shifted to Stan, whose hands were wrapped around Kiara’s shoulders.It was obvious that he was uncomfortable. He had beads of sweats on his forehead and with every second t

    Stan froze the moment his eyes met that of Ethan and Carissa. The two appeared so admirable as they held hands together and smiled at intervals.He could feel his blood boiling in rage that for a minute, he thought of approaching Ethan to give him the beating of his life.However, despite how much he wished to do that, he knew that it would only mean trouble for him.“I think I know him”, Kiara noted as she pulled Stan, who was trying so hard to resist her grip.“What do you think you’re doing?” “We should go say hi to them. His father is a friend of mine, and we had dinner together some time ago”, Kiara explained as she walked towards them, with Stan strolling beside her.Stan was in a fix and at that point, he couldn’t think of anything else apart from doing as she pleased.“Ethan?” Kiara called out in elation as Ethan quickly lifted his head to stare at her.Carissa did the same almost immediately, clearly curious to know who it was that called Ethan’s name with such excitement.H

    “Babe! We are here!” Kiara squealed in excitement the moment the car drove closer to a park that was clearly booming with a series of activities.Stan’s head was tilted to the side of the window, clearly uninterested in what Kiara had just uttered.He was in the worst phase of his life and there didn’t seem to be a way out of it.“Babe!” Kiara’s voice came up again, jolting him out of his thoughts.“Are you okay?”“Yes! Sure”, Stan replied and came off the car, staring at the inscription on the entrance that said-couple’s fun fair”.A deep sigh escaped his lips as he suddenly became exhausted.“We are not a couple yet”.“Of course we are! Aren’t we getting married soon?” Kiara said in elation as she pulled Stan towards the entrance.Stan was extremely pissed, but he knew better than to show that to Kiara. She would get sad and quickly call her father to report him.That was one thing he couldn’t keep up with Kiara, her clingy and unnecessarily childish attitude.He was unable to blame

    Loud chatters and music enveloped the atmosphere, with different couples clinging unto each other and whispering sweet, inaudible words into their ears.Carissa came off the car and smiled at Ethan, who stretched out his hands for her to cling on.“Enjoy the day with your husband to be”, Carissa said to herself as she walked towards Ethan, who appeared to be extremely fulfilled and elated.They slowly trudged into the field, clearly amazed by the number of people that were present.“I had no idea that it was going to be this huge!” Ethan confessed, with a glimpse of pleasure in his eyes.The past few days had been quite rough for him. Trying so hard to live in a house that now had the presence of a stranger was the most difficult thing he could ever think or imagine.“I saw the news about your father having another son”, Carissa noted, peering into his worried eyes and caressing his hands lightly.She was trying so hard to act normal and behave in the way and manner a wife is meant to

    “You won’t dare talk to me as though I’m a child! I’m still your father and if you push me to the edge of the wall, you won’t be excited by the outcome!” Mr. Philip bellowed angrily as he took slow steps towards Ethan, who had turned mute.“He is my son, and so many things made me confirm that! He showed me the picture of his mother too”, he yelled and clenched his fist in fury.“You mean the picture of your whore? The bitch you fucked around when you were supposed to be with my mother?” Ethan asked, without a glint of remorse in his expression.“That whore gave me a son and that son is still my blood!” Mr. Philip chimed in.Richard, who had been watching them suddenly, stood up and broke into loud laughter.“This is funny, but then, I didn’t find the part where you called my mum a whore funny. But then, the argument going on between you two is quite interesting!” He said and picked up a glass of wine which he gulped down hurriedly.“Sit down like the bastard you are!” Ethan growled.

    Ethan slowly walked into the dining room, with a massive scowl on his face, and ignoring the greetings coming from the maid and housekeepers.“You came down late”, Mr. Philip said, with an obvious look of dissatisfaction on his face.Ethan ignored him and shot a dead glare at his brother, who was smirking at him and making funny gestures.“Apologize!” Mr. Philip yelled angrily, causing Ethan to jolt off his thoughts.Ethan shrugged, with his fists clenched and his heart thumping rapidly.He felt totally embarrassed, but knew that he had to succumb to what his father ordered.“I was busy with some things, I apologize for keeping you”, he muttered and took in a deep breath.Almost immediately, he heard the sound of someone munching on something hurriedly and lifting his head up, he saw his brother chewing on a piece of chicken that barely fitted into his mouth.“What the hell! Must you show us that you’ve been starving all these while?” Ethan said, raising his nose in disgust.“Ethan, be

    Ethan got back into his room and took his clothes off. He took a quick shower, after which he poured himself a glass of alcohol.Just then, he heard a knock on the door and almost immediately, the door knob turned to reveal a young man who seemed to be younger to Ethan with a year or thereabout.“Who the hell are you?” Ethan asked as he stared at him intently.“Well, that can wait for another time. Actually, I’m here to take a tour at my father’s house”, the young man explained and chuckled calmly.His eyes darted to the bottle of alcohol that Ethan drank from.“I guess they missed out the part of my brother being an alcoholic”, he said with a wide grin, causing Ethan’s face to turn red in rage.“One more word from you and I would send you to your early grave!” Ethan threatened as he stood to his feet and took slow steps towards him.“Easy brother! It is not your intention to hurt me before my official introduction”, the young man said with a wide smile that pierced right into Ethan’s
