Hired For The Billionaire's Son Chapter Thirty Four
I was still sort of in a daze about what Ethan had told me. I knew mum had parents, I remembered meeting them a few times in my younger years, they didn't live in New York, they were from Australia, and that was another continent entirely, so I rarely saw them. I haven't seen them since the day we had mum's funeral. I remembered they kept their distance away from me that day, the twelve year old me didn't understand why they were like that, I had just thought they were missing mum like I was, so I hadn't thought much about it. But thinking about it now, I couldn't help but wonder why they had treated me like that on that day? Had something happened prior to the funeral that I wasn't aware of? They weren't harsh people, I guess, it was just that I didn't see them much or know them well enough to know the kind of people they were.I would get my answers today, or at least that was what I hoped. "Are you sure you want to do this? We don't have to, if you don't want to know?" Ethan ask

The truck continued to head towards me and from the looks of it, it wasn't stopping anytime soon but what was strange was the fact that I did not attempt whatsoever to try and avoid the truck. My feet remained frozen in the ground, it was almost like I wanted it to hit me, but why? Why was I suddenly having that urge? After what my grandparents had just revealed to me inside the restaurant, it felt like I had nothing to live for again. I was yet to confirm their accusation but I couldn't help but feel like it was true, what was I going to do? Would I be able to forgive Dad if what they were saying was indeed true? I just wanted a break, I was tired. Just when things had begun to look up and get better between Ethan and me, this got thrown in my way all of a sudden. It felt like my world was crumbling right in my very presence. I couldn't think of anything else as I stared at my grandparents and Ethan, the only thing my mind kept saying was "Run! Don't stop! Run Kate, Run!" and th

The doctor came into the room and as soon as he saw me, he smiled softly, "You must really love the hospital Mrs Robinson." He said to me."Why do you say so?" I couldn't help but ask as he approached me, reaching into his pocket and bringing out a pair of latex gloves which he was going to use to examine me I guessed. "This is the fourth time you're coming here in the last two months, coincidence much?" He asked and I smiled softly at all the times I had been here. The first time was during the accident Ethan had accidentally, his words not mine, caused. Although he had profusely apologized to me and I forgave him and I wasn't going to keep holding a grudge. The second time was after Ethan's accident, when my lost memories of him came back and I collapsed. I couldn't remember the third time but I guess if the doctor was saying this was my fourth time here, then I guessed it was actually my fourth time here. "I'm sorry doctor, I'm like an accident magnet. Things can't help but go

"So what you're both saying now is that Mum signed ownership of the company to me before she died?" I asked them again to make sure I was hearing them properly. "Yes, she did baby," Grandma confirmed to me again. "How come I'm just hearing about this? After all these years?" I asked them, still not believing all they were saying. How was this making any sense to them? So what? I was the sole owner of Miller Industries. What am I supposed to do with such information? Were they expecting me to go into a legal battle with Dad over the ownership? That's crazy."You were still a minor back then, remember you were twelve, so you wouldn't have been granted ownership back then too, but your mother clearly stated you take over the moment you clock twenty-three, which was four years ago." Grandpa Max stated. "This is crazy! I can't believe I have to deal with this right now!" I said under my breath, running my hands through my hair as well. "Relax Kate," Ethan said to me before turning to

"Call him," I said to Ethan as we were seated in the living room. I had been discharged from the hospital about a week ago with a promise of not going back there anytime soon of course. Ethan, my grandparents and I have been racking our heads all week long trying to figure out how best to approach the situation at hand. What I wanted to do was to confront Dad, you know, something like barging into his office, throwing the papers in his face and demanding explanations. Ethan was quick to let me know how reckless and frankly, stupid, my plan was. He claimed Dad could make all the evidence disappear right before my eyes and we would be back to square one. I didn't believe that anyways but he told me he was very serious and Dad could do it. Grandma Nora and Grandpa Max, on the other hand, wanted to take the evidence to court and subpoena him but even I knew that wouldn't work. If Dad had managed to wreak such great havoc over the years, that means he would have some high-up who was aid

I found out something crucial as soon as we dropped the call with dad, something was missing. "You said mum had signed the company over to me before she died right?" I asked my grandparents who were patiently sat in the chairs in the living room. "Yes, she had signed them over to you just around the time of her death, I think it was two weeks before she died." Grandma Nora answered me. "Where are they? I noticed they weren't in the documents you brought?" I pointed out to them. "Yes dear, you're right. They're not in the documents we brought and the reason for that is because we suspect your father might have gotten a hold of the documents before we did. We looked and searched everywhere for it after your mother's demise but we were never able to find it." She explained further to me. "So dad must have them then?" I reasoned out. "If he has the original documents to prove your ownership, then that puts us at a disadvantage." Ethan stated out, a look of sheer panic across his fac

A week after that dreadful confrontation day with Dad, things had been fairly quiet afterwards and I was a bit bothered. Dad's silence never meant anything good, he was obviously plotting something, but what? What could he be up to? Did he have more tricks up his sleeve? Was he going to actually launch a counterattack against us? My mind was troubled, cooking up different scenarios of what was to come into my head. "You're thinking about it again aren't you?" Ethan's voice pierced through my bubble of isolation. We were at the dining table, preparing to go pick up my grandparents, we had a meeting with the rest of Ethan's family today. I looked at him sheepishly, wondering how he had known what I was thinking about, did my face give away that much? Or was he actually psychic? He was knowing me too much for my liking, it was quite unnerving but in a good way. "Would you believe me if I say no?" I glanced up at him sheepishly, flashing a cute smile at him. "Not a chance.

"This should be interesting!!" Ethan said beside me as soon as I showed him the contents of the package. "What's that?" Liam asked from behind us, stepping around Grandma and Grandpa to come and see what we were supposedly raving about. When we showed him the invite, he looked at it for a few seconds before looking back at us, a confused expression on his face. I guess he was wondering why an invite to a party that was going to be hosted by my father was coming as a huge surprise to us. "Your dad's having a party and he invited the both of you, why is that weird?" He asked us. That's when I remembered that they didn't know what had gone down with Dad yet, we had kept it from the family but it was one of the reasons we were having dinner tonight, we planned to tell them everything. "Don't worry bro, you're in for a real treat tonight," Ethan said, throwing his arms around Liam's shoulders and pulling them further into the house. Emily took the invite from my hand as well and went

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
