CHLOE.

I walked out of the kitchen after warming up the water for the morning. My stomach had been aching, I felt like the whole juggling and ramming was too much for the child. I got some vitamin C for the child. Resting against the sink in my kitchen, I couldn't help but think about yesterday and how much Ethan showed that he hated me.

It had been long since I felt such hate from him. He grabbed my neck and squeezed me so hard that I could feel his fingers in my skin. I brought it back, the hatred that he had for me, was me who brought it back.

Or Matilda. I wonder why she hated me so much. I didn't even do anything to her but she had done nothing but show me how much she despised me.

I sighed and dropped the cup I used in the sink before going to grab a table of water from the fridge. With this, I left the kitchen with one small bottle of water in my hand. At the same time, Matilda started to approach me.

She was wearing a pink loungewear. It was a designer brand, Fashion Nova

    CHLOE. Ethan made sure he followed me into the hospital. He wasn't even someone that I could say no to. The doctor attended to us first despite the others who had arrived before us. All the necessary things needed for the test were taken from me. I felt so much fear as the nurse moved around and took these things from me. I was so scared that they would tell Ethan what was wrong with me. A part of me was relieved the child would also be checked out. I really wanted to know how my baby was doing. To be sure the rough sex did not affect it. The nurse kept looking at me and it seemed she already knew what was wrong with me. We were in the doctor's office when he came in with a file. “Mr Ethan, congratulations!” He announced. My heart skipped a beat. I was in deep trouble. He would know. Ethan was going to know and he would tell me to abort the child. He would tell me to leave his house after. Just what if I die after aborting the baby? I was in deep trouble. My mother's bills stil

    MATILDA. “How do you intend to make him fully mine?”I asked staring at the young man in front of me. He was eating the chicken he had ordered like he hadn't eaten in days. I knew he was going through financial difficulties but then I wasn't expecting him to be so particular about food. “I thought we made it clear that it was your part, not mine. I just need you to make sure that he never looks at her again. This way he would drop all of the protection he built over her and I could get my properties back from her.” He explained. I chuckled.“Do you think that Ethan is someone that could be easily influenced? Have you forgotten that he had a rigid mind? Even while I was dating him, the relationship was based on sex, nothing more.” He raised his eyes and our gaze met. He had sauce all over the side of his mouth. I couldn't believe that I sat in front of him and was speaking to him. I just needed to get Ethan back, nothing more. I needed that bitch Chloe to be out of sight and this

    CHLOE. Grandma’s question made my hands tremble as she sat across from me in my bedroom. Grandma's eyes were sharp and knowing. Of course, she was an older woman. She could easily detect me and my pregnancy icks. “You’ve been acting a little different lately and this is the reason I came to the conclusion that you are pregnant,” Grandma said, her voice laced with curiosity and concern. I kept silent, unable to speak. I didn't know how to deny. I stiffened. My heart was racing but I could only cover it up with a nervous smile. “Pregnant? How could I be pregnant?”“Is there something you want to tell me, darling?” She asked as I kept silent, only smiling, but it felt strained. There was no escaping it now. I had been careful in order not to arouse suspicion. Grandma was not the type to be easily deceived. She was an older woman who knew more things than I did. “How could I be pregnant?” I asked, touching the back of my head which I knew could easily put me out there. She would ea

    CHLOE. I stood at the edge of Ethan’s study, my heart thudding in my chest probably because of the scene with grandma or the one with Matilda. I really could say what made me feel so nervous. The door was slightly open, and I had no choice but to step inside. He did not raise his head as I stepped in. He did not care about me. I touched my belly unconsciously once more, a habit I needed to stop in order not to be detected. I still did not know what to do with myself. How to keep Grandma from telling Ethan? The doctor had even told me to tell Ethan. I wouldn't let his license suffer for my predicament. I sighed as I stepped closer to him, the quiet hum of the air conditioning filled the silence, but that didn’t ease the tension in the air which only I seemed to feel. Ethan was sitting at his desk, engrossed in something on his laptop. His posture was relaxed, yet somehow still commanding. I could feel the weight of his presence even without him looking at me. His gaze was fixed on

    MATILDA. The tension I felt knowing that Chloe and Ethan were together doing only God knows what. I knew they working on the project but then it could lead to more than that eventually. I felt so much anger.My mind was disturbed at the thought of it. I felt turmoil and the need to have her sent out of this house because I wanted my man back. The mere thought of her stung me and the fact that she could easily sway Ethan to her side disturbed me more but then I wouldn't allow it. Katherine did hers and got away with it. This time, I would fight even though Chloe was a bigger threat. I pretended to be in the hallway where Ethan usually worked whenever he was tired in his office. I plugged in both of my earbuds yet did not play any music. It was the best way to fool them so that they wouldn't know I was listening to what they were saying to each other. They even whispered some words and I had to strain my ears to hear them. Although I didn't hear a lot, I’d overheard just enough to k

    CHLOE. The day had started off like any other, but somehow, I could feel the weight of it pressing down on me more than usual. The phone call had come early, the one I dreaded but had expected—another specialist would be coming to see my mother. I had told the doctor about it, prepared an email, and sent it to the hospital. I used the influence of Ethan, his laptop when I was preparing that contract for him. It was the best way that I could make sure that my mom received the treatment that she needed. Of course, I didn’t tell Ethan. It wasn’t that I didn’t trust him, but sometimes, the last thing I wanted was for him to be involved in every aspect of this. It was a defense mechanism, a way to shield us from the hate that he had for us. If I had told him, he might stop it. He hated me and only did what favored him. There were times when he acted like he cared but I knew deep down he didn't. Perhaps he did? I wasn't sure and I couldn't conclude. Well, the scene that happened in his

    CHLOE. I stared at the document in my hands, the edges of the paper crinkling slightly as I gripped it too hard. I wanted to open it, to read whatever was inside, but I just… couldn’t. My fingers trembled as I placed it back on the desk, my eyes burning with frustration. I was pissed—angry, actually—about everything, but mostly about the fact that Grayson knew.But then I couldn't stop asking myself how he knew. I kept thinking, the question gnawing at me. How many other people knew? The more I thought about it, the more worried I became. Was it Ethan? Did he tell someone? I couldn’t imagine that he would. Ethan wouldn't reveal something like that about me—about us—would he? No. I shook my head, trying to dismiss the thought. No, it couldn’t be him. It wasn't someone to give too much information. He wouldn't do it, right? But then who could have done it? I couldn't think about any other person who could have divulged such information except him. He was the one who knew about me. Did

    CHLOE. I thought to myself that David wasn't that bad, perhaps I could learn to love him. It shouldn't be so hard to learn to love someone. But it was so hard to unlearn loving. We danced to the music, just moving with the sound. It was fun, and at that moment I had nothing to worry about. I kept moving with the beat, my heart moving with the rhythm. It was so good dancing. David laughed and said some funny words as well. The music stopped and we were left with slow music. It was one of Gracie Adams's songs, this music was my work playlist. David lifted my chin and it seemed like he was going to kiss me. My heart pounded hard in my chest. I was not sure I was ready for him to kiss me but then this was the beginning of loving him right? He went as far as finding my playlist. Everything he did was to suit my taste. He did all these things just for me. Perhaps loving him was the right thing to do. Thinking about my son, it just all felt so right. “Do you want to kiss me?” He whis

    CHLOE. David's request sounded like it wasn't such a bad idea. Giving him some days to prove he was worth dating. I needed to move on too. I couldn't be stuck with someone who didn't care about me. Ethan. I needed to forget Ethan too. Although I was a bit skeptical about dating. I didn't want to be with anyone like my ex-boyfriend once again. David had been with me for years, perhaps I could trust him but then Olivia was the same. She watched me and then brought me down. I told him, Yes. He smiled, happy with my answer. He held my hand and then promised that he would do anything to make me happy. Every word he said got in one ear and out the other though. I didn't want him to prove that he was worthy of being dated. No. I was just scared. I should really move on. I needed to. “You can't come here during the time of courting me. You have to stop seeing Eli as well because now you are no longer my friend. We have started dating,” I said. He raised his eyes. “That is really weird.

    CHLOE. After handling everything at the office, I couldn’t help but feel relieved. The government had finally returned all the profits they had made while managing our company over the years. Sure, it wasn’t as much as we could have earned if we had been in control ourselves, but it was fair enough. It was better than nothing. It had been years. Although the profit was still massive. Once the work was done, my mind roamed back to my best friend and what I had said to him the previous day. Guilt ate at me. He had been nothing but kind to me—unlike Ethan, who always demanded something in return for the help that he rendered to me. David had never once asked for anything from me, let alone something so big. He had never deprived me. Ethan took every chance to make me feel smaller, he was that kind of person, and I hated him. I hated myself more for always falling for his tricks. As I walked down the reception area- my heels hit the floor. I was wearing the new Kate heels, and it was s

    ETHAN. Chloe’s mood changed rapidly and I couldn't help but blame it on that bastard, he had to be the one who hurt her and made her feel that sort of way. He was nothing but a fuvking bastard and I was going to make him pay. He must be jealous because he jade fuvking her back in the van. I wanted to him, he was standing by the parking lot, pacing back and forth. The moment he turned to me I grabbed him and punched him hard in the face. “What did you say to Chloe?” I demanded, my voice cold and sharp.He turned to face me, his expression a mix of anger and astonishment. “I told her the truth, that you’re no good for her. That you’re just using her. And you are nothing but a bastard. You don't deserve her at all!” I clenched my fists, trying to hold back the urge to punch him again. The punch that I gave him actually affected me, the place where I was shot so I did not want to strain it further but I kept staring at him with a frowned expression. “Who the fuck are you to know whe

    ETHAN. I couldn't resist her anymore. I had always wanted her and this wasn't an exemption. I wanted her badly so when she told the waiter to call me to her van, I did. Her van was huge, there was a very comfortable place for us to be in. I didn't mind kissing her. And fucking her. She laps looked like someone that wanted to be fucked by me hence I did not mind. So when she grabbed my shirt and pulled me to her, I gave in. I touched her first. I initiated it. I loved her and wanted her. I knew that she was mine, she had always been mine and the David guy was just there for nothing. I was going to take her back because she belonged to me. I would take her son too, I would treat him like mine. I knew that she wouldn't want to leave Eli, this was the reason I would build a connection with the little boy and then marry his mother after Savid had left. Chloe Hathway was the line of woman that I wanted to have - anyone would want to have her no matter what. I took her lips I to my own,

    ETHAN. I couldn't deny that I felt jealous when Chloe left with that man called David. I was certain that he was happy that Chloe had left with him instead of stay with me like I had projected. I hated seeing the duo together. I wasn't sure who David was but certainly, I wanted to get id of him. I wanted Chloe to be mine alone. If I could have her as mine, she could then take up the space that belonged to her. I do u ted that she even knew how much I loved and wanted her to be mine. I made a mistake from the start. I didn't like that I did. That I made her suffer, I hated it so much. I had thought that she hurt my mother when she didn't and now I was paying for it. For the evil that I had done to her. The doctor finished dressing my wound, his hands quick and rehearsed as he worked on me. I had been two days since Chloe had been with me, she was always coming to see me and helping around. And god I loved it so much. Yeah, I wa sgoing through pain. The nurses were leaking my wound w

    ETHAN. The hospital wasn't a place that I loved not after the death of my mother. Plus, my sister being in a coma and all of that. This made me hate the hospital. However, being here instead of her kind of made me happy. There was no regret, not even an ounce which was just weird because I had never felt this way toward any body. Well, Chloe Hathway was not just anybody. She was Chloe Hathway, a woman that I cherished in a way that I could not control. Chloe had a way of making me feel different. When I opened my eyes the next day, I was told that Grandpa had come to visit. But then I wanted to hear about Chloe.Hence I asked the nurse if she came. The nurse said yes. “Your wife, right?” She asked and I found myself shaking my head positively. Did Chloe introduce herself as my wife? I was happy with it though. She acted as my wife. “She was here all through the night and she only left when the police called her. She is such a caring woman,” the nurse had said. I felt more fulfil

    CHLOE.The moment I stepped into the interrogation room and saw Olivia, every part of me twirled with anger. Why was she here? How did she come here? Why didn't I think that she could be the one behind all of these? She was nothing but a bitch who wanted advantage where she didn't belong. Staring at her right now I felt like smacking her face but then it was going to be tagged as insult. However when she opened her mouth, I started to have a rethink. Perhaps smacking her wasn't an outright bad idea. Her words annoyed me to the core and it took some level of self-control to not slap her face.“You!” she spat, pointing an accusatory finger at me. “Are you the one who told them to arrest me? Isn’t putting my husband behind bars enough? Now you want to destroy my life and my children’s lives too?! You want to leave them without a mother and father. You want me dead like your mother died?!” She shouldn't have mentioned my Mother. Mentioning my mother was the last level of self-control t

    CHLOE. The shot had been so fast. I couldn’t even process it until I was nuzzling Ethan in my arms, his blood staining my hands. It was so bad that it felt like imagination. I couldn't bring myself to believe that he had been shot. How did this happen? And why? Who had shot the gun? Where did it come from? It happened so fast that I couldn't imagine it even though it was unfolding right in front of me. The glass wall had shattered all over the floor. Some had gotten into my skin as well. I just didn't mind because it didn't cause so much damage. I asked for help. Calling everyone around me. I begged them t help me and they did. The ambulance soon came and they look Ethan from me. Eli ran to my side after they had taken Ethan from me. “Are you his wife?” The nurse ahe asked me and I knew I had t say yes so that they woke allow me to be with him. Ethan had taken a bullet from me, I had to be with him. Sitting in the hospital hallway, the events kept replaying in my mind, over and ov
