I didn't know how I swiveled forward but I just knew I did and I was immediately in front of Ethan and thankfully, I was able to stop him just in time before his hands made contact with Blair's face.

Panic flashed across his face the moment I showed up in front of him, "What are you doing? I could have almost hit you!" He exclaimed.

"But you didn't and I stopped you before you did but we have to tread carefully now, this might be another set-up," I said to him in a hushed whisper.

Realization flashed across his face immediately and he realized the implication of what he was about to do and he stopped himself immediately, "You're right Kate." He said and I watched all the anger leave his face and his body immediately.

"We'll do this the right way, okay?" I told him and he agreed with me.

"The right way." He agreed with me and just as I was about to turn around and address Blair and the other people who were gawking at us, I felt something or someone rather grip my hair.

    I stared at the message all over and over again, it was from an unknown sender and immediately I got the message, I dialled the number in hopes that I could speak with the person but it was too late, the number was already switched off and there was no way to reach the person anymore. "What do we do now?" I asked Ethan after I tried the number three more times all to no avail. "We have to track the phone," Ethan said hurriedly and took the phone out of my hands. He then reached into his pocket and brought out his phone. "Come to my office right away." He said to the person on the other end of the call and dropped the phone. "Relax Kate, we'll find the person who sent the message and we'll get the truth about your mum too, but you have to promise me that you'll relax first, the person I called now is the best P.I we have and if anyone can track that number, he's the one." He reassured me and he calmed me down that way. The door to Ethan's office opened and a young, nerdy guy poked

    Immediately I heard those words come out of his mouth, I lept up in the chair I was sitting in, turns out I wasn't the only one that was on edge because Ethan and I stood up at the same time and turned to face David. "What did you just say?" I asked him, wanting to be sure that I heard him well. "The phone, the number, I tracked it." He clarified, a bored expression sitting on his face. "Where are they? As in where is the phone right now?" Ethan asked him, still a bit disorientated and trying to pull himself together. "They're at the fifth avenue, I'll text you the full address on your way there." He told us and turned around and went back to the office he was working in. "Let's go then," Ethan said after taking a glance at his phone, I knew David had texted him the address and without wasting any more time, he reached out and grabbed my hand, pulling me along as we made our way outside his office. We reached the underground parking lot in no time and we entered the car, and as

    Ethan patted my back in a comforting manner, and that was when I remembered that Ethan was seated beside me, "Mr. Cooper, this is my husband, Ethan Robinson." I introduced them. Mr Cooper chuckled a bit at my introduction, "I know who he is, he doesn't need any introduction." Mr Cooper said."Where have you been all these years?" I asked him, curious to know where he had been all this while and what he had been up to. "I'm sorry I had to suddenly leave but I had to leave after your mum's death." He explained to us. "But why now? Why did you choose to get in touch with me now?" "I know the truth behind your mother's death and I thought you did as well, but after that article which I saw, I knew you were in the dark about it and that's when I knew I had to come out and tell you the truth." He told us. "And what is the truth?" I asked him and he dived into the story of what happened that fateful day. "Your mum didn't die in that accident, she was murdered." He revealed and I felt c

    Mr Cooper had left us some few minutes ago but for some reason, Ethan and I found ourselves unable to move from our individual seats, all we were doing since it was just the two of us was that we were staring at the flash drive that Mr Cooper had brought, as I was staring at it, the words he had said earlier continued to ring in my ears. So Dad killed Mum after all? He mourned her loss for several years, I watched him as he became miserable after her death, so that was all for what? Just to appease his guilt? I didn't know if I was the one who had been playing a fool or if I'd just been a fool from the beginning. The flash drive that continued to sit on the table weighed heavily on me even though it was not in my hands, It was just that the weight of what was in the drive was going to be a huge one, but it was my cross to carry anyways and I would see it through to the end. "Are you going to watch what is there?" Ethan asked me, always the first person to break the silence as usual

    Fifteen Years AgoMrs Miller watched her daughter, Kate, as she boarded the bus that would take her to school. She had always driven Kate to school every morning, but Kate had decided to take the bus that fateful morning, and she wondered why.Once Kate was seated on the bus, she looked at her mum once more and waved her hands excitedly. Mrs Miller, having no other choice, smiled and waved back at Kate. There was something bittersweet about the way they were saying goodbye to each other, it had almost felt like it would be their last encounter. Mrs Miller shrugged those disturbing thoughts away and turned around, going back into the house. She was having those thoughts because this was the first time in a long time that she wouldn't be driving Kate to school, she had always looked forward to the mornings she would drive her to school. Kate herself didn't know this but those few minutes Kate would spend talking nonstop while her mother drove her to school, those few minutes were alwa

    "Kate wait!" Ethan tried to stop me for the umpteenth time. After watching that whole video and learning the truth about what my father had done, I first of all went mute, then I became frozen, I just didn't know what to do anymore but after pondering on it for a while my other senses kicked in and I lept up in my seat. "Where are you going now?" He asked me. I knew he knew where I was going but he just wanted to hear me say it and he wanted to be sure. "I need to go and see him, Ethan, please." I pleaded with him but I knew Ethan wouldn't let me go. I was high on my emotions right now and I wasn't thinking rationally, it would be unwise of him to let me go in the state I was currently was, I was capable of doing anything right now and I meant anything. "Calm down Kate, just calm down please." He pleaded with me, still holding me very tight. I was itching to break away from his hold but Ethan was stronger than I was, so his strength surely overpowered mine. "He killed her, Ethan,

    The weather forecast had predicted that there would be a light shower this evening and it was true because on our way home, the clouds were turning grey and the rain was pouring right now. The weather was cold outside but inside, the temperature was at a boiling point. Ethan's hand had seemed to be on an adventure before but it looked like he had found what he was looking for when his hands stopped at the hook of the bra I had on. He unclipped it and I knew he had done this a lot, it took a lot of practice to know how to do such a thing. My thoughts were wandering again and I immediately cautioned myself, I didn't want to be thinking of the numerous girls Ethan had been with right now, instead, I focused on the man in front of me, the man who only had eyes for me and that made me feel more confident. When Ethan had unclipped my bra, it allowed him access to my breast and without wasting time, his hands came round to the front, and he cupped the two molds in his hands and his action

    I didn't even know I had that much endurance until Ethan took me beyond my limits, he took me to a whole new world and by the time we finally came off our highs, I had forgotten all about what I had discovered during the day. I fell asleep with my head resting on Ethan's chest, listening to his heartbeat softly and his arms were wrapped around me, that was the best way to end the day. When I woke up the next morning, my bladder was full and I needed to empty them, I made a move to stand up but I was held down by something heavy pressing on me, my eyes opened in panic but I relaxed when I took in my surroundings, I was in Ethan's room. Memories of what happened last night came back to me and I was blushing all over again, while I was still daydreaming, I remembered that I had to use the toilet. So I gently pried Ethan's arm off me and I made a move to stand up, but when I did, a pain shot down in my lower region and I grunted out. My grunts seemed to startle Ethan because his eyes

    Four Years LaterI sat nervously in the chair that was set up on the stage, and although I had this huge smile plastered on my face, no one could tell that I was nervous, well there was one person who could anyway, and he was seated in the front row with our two-year-old son, Aiden. I looked up at him and he smiled at me and mouthed the words "Breathe." Just like that, the thickness that had lodged itself in my chest dissipated and I felt like I could breathe again. "Thank you." I mouthed back to him and he smiled and went back to cuddling our baby in his arms.So allow me to bring you up to speed on everything that has happened in the last four years. After Dad was arrested, he was tried, convicted and sentenced to jail of course and just like Ethan had predicted, he had been sentenced to life imprisonment, without an option of parole of course. It was after that that I was finally given the company. I had presented the copy of the transfer of ownership Mum had done before she die

    It had been a week since the ball incident, and what that meant was that it had been one whole week of chaos and complete madness to say the least. What Lucy had told us and warned us about, that the press was going to go insane was absolutely true, the press had gone insane that night and it was only because Ethan and Liam had taken the initiative to hire more security men beforehand, that was how we had been able to get everything under control, things would have gotten more insane if it wasn't for that.Dad had been arrested and taken into custody that night, Stephanie had also fainted from shock, following the revelation we made that night. Overall, it was a very dramatic and unforgettable night, and things had only just started. An investigation was immediately launched following the arrest of dad and it was in this process that more of his crimes were brought to light and it was in this process that I myself heard of his numerous other crimes. Not only had he committed murder,

    "Hello, lovely people." I heard someone greet me from behind me and immediately knew who it was. Emily hugged me from behind and I patted her arms lightly, chuckling at her manner of greeting. After I exchanged pleasantries with both her and Liam, they took their seats, our table was for five people and four were already in attendance, we were expecting just one more person. "Where is Aurora?" I asked her."She's with her grandparents." She answered me and I knew by grandparents, she meant Ethan's mum and dad. "So a little birdie told me this is no ordinary ball." Emily leaned closer to me and whispered in my ears after a while. I gave her a knowing smile as I already figured out where she got the information or from whom she got it, but I wasn't angry or anything like that. Emily was one of my trusted allies and we were in this together. "Well, that little birdie was right," I whispered back to her. "So what are we doing tonight? What is tonight all about?" She asked me, literal

    "Oh yes, I'm sorry ma'am." She apologized before saying something to the Bluetooth device that was connected to her, "They said it is Mr. Miller, ma'am, your father, he just stepped on the red carpet."A feeling of fear and shock descended on me at first but I just told myself that I wasn't the same person I was last year before I left, I was bolder and more confident now, and I could now stand up to my oppressors and I wouldn't let anyone or anything, bring me down again, I could do this and I was going to do this. "Do you want us to head in first?" Ethan bent down to my level and whispered in my ears, but when I looked up, I looked at him and shook my head."No we can stay, it'd be nice to get an interview with him at least," I told Ethan and he knew what I was doing, I was already putting the plan into execution and he nodded his head to show me that he was in full support of what I was doing.Besides, like I said earlier, I knew the games these reporters played and I had been pla

    Ethan helped me out of the car and the moment the reporters spotted us they swarmed us like a bunch of bees, luckily for us, Ethan had planned and he had arranged security beforehand. So immediately they swarmed us, the security details around us formed a wall and we were protected from them, "Should we just head in or do you want to grant some interviews?" Ethan asked me, talking loudly over all the noise and camera flashes. Although we had several bulky men who had formed a barrier around us, Ethan still ensured I was protected, he had draped his hand over my shoulder and brought me closer so that my face couldn't be seen by the rest of the public, he was taking my safety very seriously and I was touched by that. "It's fine, I'll grant some interviews," I yelled back to him over all the noise as well."Are you sure? These people are like a bunch of hungry lions right now and they won't go easy on you, are you sure you want to do this? You know you don't have to?" He asked me agai

    When I did that Ethan groaned out and doubled over, I was scared because his groan sounded like a painful one, I immediately crouched down to his level and I was rubbing soothing circles on his back, "What's wrong babe?" I asked him and he looked up at me before saying, "You." I was confused, and I knew my facial expression must have changed from worried to confused, as Ethan read my face and explained to himself, "that thing you're doing to me is making me feel all sorts of things." He told me. "What thing?" I asked him again, not at all understanding what he was saying. "This thing." He demonstrated and I smiled. "What about this thing?" I asked again and repeated the same action and he groaned out."Stop biting your lips." He told me and I looked up at him through my lashes, and quietly asked, "Or else what?" I asked and this time, he jumped into action, he brought his hands to my lips and released them from the hold of my teeth.I rolled my eyes at his words and pushed him out

    Ethan and I had enjoyed a complete two weeks of total bliss, now it was time to go back into the limelight, and by limelight, I meant, now it was time to reveal our whole truth to the world and as expected, Dad would never see it coming. We realized there was some truth to what Lucy had told us the last time she was here, things were going to get very crazy from now henceforth and Ethan and I needed all the alone time we could get and the only way we could get it was right now, no time was enough but we made the most out of our time together and now, we were ready. The news that I was back in New York or that Ethan and I were back together, the news hadn't gotten to the press or the public yet, I knew that because had it meant the press had heard about it, they would have been lining up at the entrance of the apartment since the day we got back, but we had enjoyed total peace in the past two weeks.Everything Ethan and I did, we did it indoors as we couldn't go out, going out would

    "It's a hidden talent of mine," I responded and smiled at him."It's not going to be easy but just like you said, our relationship hasn't gone past the point of no repair, and all we just have to do is sit down and have this conversation, they're still my parents and I still love them, it's going to be hard but they're worth it." He said I smiled up at him, looking at him with a proud smile on my face."I'm happy to hear you say that," I told him and I leaned up and placed a quick kiss on his lips, smiling at him when I pulled back, that would not be enough for Ethan because he suddenly leaned down to my level and captured my lips in an intense kiss of his own, the rest of our night was spent I'm pure bliss needless to say. We were woken up by the sound of the buzzing on the front door and it continued to buzz like that for a while. I was surprised that I was the one that heard it. Ethan was still fast asleep and it didn't even seem like he was going to get up anytime soon. I tapped

    When we got outside, Ethan went around the car, opened the door and helped me into the passenger's seat. I thought he was telling me that he wanted to be alone and that the driver should take me home and I was all but ready to jump out of the car. But I was happy when Ethan came to the driver's seat and opened the door, "Out!" He told the driver that was perched in the driver's seat and wanted to drive us home. The young man took one look at Ethan's face and he could tell that Ethan wasn't in a mood to be messed around with and immediately, he scurried out of the car. Ethan then came in and in the process of fastening his seat belt, the front door slammed closed and when we looked up, we saw that it was no other person than his mum, and it seemed like she was coming here. Ethan had immediately forgotten about the seatbelt he wanted to fasten and he reached for the ignition keys, he started the car and it roared to life, his mum had almost reached us, except that she wasn't fast enou
