ETHAN'S POVIt was already past 9:00pm when I finished perusing the report from the security and technical department about the Embezzlement allegations against Alexia. This is the second report they are sending to me and yet nothing new has unfolded. I sigh, feeling frustrated.I have always seen myself as someone who can unravel any complications and come to the bottom of it. However this Alexia’s is proving to be very difficult.On one hand I know within me, though I do not have any proof yet, that Alexia is not the person embezzling the company funds. Which is the reason why I need to catch the real culprit. In a few months from now, I will be taking over from my father as the new CEO, and I don't want to take over a company where there is a clever thief running free and framing others to cover up for their crime. I will get to the bottom of this no matter how tricky it may be, I silently vowed, not just because of the promise I made to Alexia's but to bring the person involved

Ethan's POVMy phone keeps ringing incessantly on the drive home. I wonder who will be calling so frequently at this time of the night. After the stunt Melinda pulled the other time, I doubt she would try this same thing again. But very few people have my number, so I am wondering who this caller could be. I searched for a space to park the car until I saw a relatively good place by the roadside. I parked the car and turned off the ignition. Picking up the phone, I accept the call as I see Ryan's name on the screen.“Hey, Ethan! Where are you, man?!” He yelled over the phone. I pulled the phone from my ears before he blew off my eardrums. I could hear loud noises in the background.“I'm on my way home Ryan” I replied without bothering to greet him. Let's just say I'm still a little peeved about how he spent more time with my wife at the party than I did with her, and I am her husband!“Get your ass over to Club 360 there is a bi..big…part…y going on here,” he said slurring“Ryan, are

Alexia’s POVI take a deep breath trying to calm myself so my brain can think. I mean for goodness’s sake they couldn’t tell me their rent was due sooner than this? I could have used my salary or something but it’s too late already and I am not sure whether I want to ask Ethan for help at all.“We are sorry we didn’t say anything sis, we thought we could handle it,” Aiden says looking as tense as I feel.“How well has handling it gotten you?” I retort sarcastically. I start pacing trying to think of the best way to handle this.“How much time do we have?” I ask praying to God we still have time to sort this out“Two months max,” Austin says. I sigh in relief, that is more than enough time to raise the funds. Now I just have to figure out how to do just that. I might need to ask Bridget for help. Sometimes being this helpless is depressing but there isn’t much I can do. “Is there any other pressing issue you would like to bring to my attention or we are good?” I ask, I don’t think I c

Alexia’s POVI wake up and do my usual morning routine but as I’m about to leave the house Ethan’s driver stops me“Good morning, ma’am, my boss said I should be taking you to work and bringing you home” When did Ethan start caring about how I transported myself?“Then who will drive him?” I ask knowing he wouldn’t give away his driver for me. that’s not how things work. “I don’t know but I am in charge of you now ma’am,” he tells me. I don’t know how I feel about giving away my freedom but it does save me from spending so much money for Ubers. Now I am starting to feel like his wife.I sigh but step into the vehicle, no need to argue with the poor driver. He doesn’t seem to like me much though, I guess he can join the queue of people who hate Alexia, the list keeps increasing.I get to the office in no time, the driver is actually very efficient and he didn’t try to engage me in unnecessary small talk but as soon as I get into the office Bridget walks in.“Hey Bridget” I greet my be

Alexia’s POV What could Ethan’s mother possibly want from me? the woman hates my guts and now she is forcing me to meet her visitor. This can’t be good; I am finding it hard to shake off the feeling that she has ulterior motives. “So, you mean my mother-in-law instructed you to bring me home to meet her guest?” I ask him needing more confirmation because it all sounds like a prank. “yes,” he replies and even adds a brief nod. I don’t think I like my odds one bit. “Okay then” I reply. I keep quiet since there was nothing else to add to the conversation We continue to drive to the mansion my mind a tornado of thoughts, trying to figure out what Mrs. Blackwood could want from me. I know she doesn’t miss me; she doesn’t even consider you her daughter-in-law. My brain tells me even though I already know that. I think hard trying to remember anything about a visitor coming to the mansion but my memory fails me. Once we arrive at the mansion, I take slow calculated steps into the hou

Alexia’s POV“Now tell me what happened” is the first thing he says to me as soon as we start driving off. I still can’t believe he took my side instead of Melinda’s but I take a deep breath and then begin to narrate everything in detail. Making sure he understood that I didn’t plan on attacking Melinda it just happened but I even added the fact that I didn’t feel guilty about it.“That is why no one should mess with you” he laughs after I finish telling him what happened. He doesn’t seem angry about my actions at all in fact if anything he looks amused.“You aren’t mad I fought with your childhood friend?” I ask him“Well, I wouldn’t advise you to go around slapping people who piss you off no matter how annoying they might be. Melinda is dangerous and she isn’t going to let it go. Even though I won’t allow anything to happen I still recommend not engaging her” he pauses for a few seconds then continues “but morals aside I can’t help but admit she might have deserved it. Do I support

Alexia’s POV“What are you talking about?” I ask him deciding playing dumb is the best way to go.“You know what I mean but I’ll cut you some slack because we are here” That’s when I look up and see where we are. We are at an amusement park.“Isn’t it locked or something? I mean it’s late already and they have closing hours” I ask worried if we would even be allowed in.“Well, you should start to know dear wife that I have my ways” he teases then gets out of the car before I get the chance, he opens my door for me and stretches his hand out which I take.“Oh really? That’s convenient” I laugh. He leads me through a passage I am not familiar with. I mean of course I know this place but I have always followed the front door. My blood rushes with adrenaline. I feel like we shouldn’t be sneaking into this place but here I am with my fake husband following a secret passageway into an amusement park.“So how did you find out about this secret passage?” I ask, wanting to find out more.“I to

Alexia’s POVI wake up to see that Ethan is still sleeping peacefully on his side of the bed so I decide to check my phone and then I see over a dozen missed calls and text messages. It takes me a few seconds to register that the messages are from my brothers. I try to think of why my brothers would be calling me so much but then it clicks. I immediately jump out of bed like it’s made out of coals.“What is it?” he mumbles his voice still thick because of sleep“Today is their graduation,” I say rushing to gather my things and drag Ethan out of bed.“Your brothers?” he asks with a yawn while cleaning his eyes“I was meant to be with them since yesterday but because of everything that happened,d I forgot. I feel so terrible” I tell him, my eyes starting to water“Okay calm down, what time is the actual graduation” he asks me also trying to gather his things even though I know he would prefer to stay in.“It’s by 10 am Ethan and it’s already 7 am,” I say failing to hide the panic I feel
