"Mr. Miller, that question is too personal," Hanna told Ethan."You don't want to answer because you might have lied to Lola. Maybe it wasn't just one man. Tell the truth," Ethan pressed.Hanna restrained herself from rolling her eyes. "Dylan. Remember the guy I was talking to on the video call?"She couldn't think of anyone else to mention. She couldn't tell Ethan that he was the first man she had been with, or that she had taken his wallet containing almost 400 dollars, which she had already spent.Ethan seemed to clench his jaw at the mention of Dylan's name, though it was probably just her imagination. It was unlikely he would be angry at the person who had taken her virginity."Just make sure you don't contact any other men while our agreement is in place. You belong to me. Understood?"She nodded. "Don't worry. I love my job and the money I'll earn."'And I love you! Wait! Why did that thought even cross my mind?!' she wondered."Good! I'm glad that's clear. Give me your
They laughed together, and Rosa introduced them. "This is my grandson, Ethan, and his girlfriend, Hanna Smith."Francisco shook their hands warmly. "What a beautiful young lady. Ethan, don't let her go. Marry her and have lots of kids to keep the family line going."They laughed at Francisco's joke.Ethan left Francisco to chat with Rosa and invited Hanna to dance. "Shall we dance? Just to pass the time and show Grandma that we're sweet on each other.""Mr. Miller, I don't know how to dance," she whispered in his ear.Besides, the music was sweet, and she wasn't eager to be close to Ethan's body again."Don't worry, I'll teach you," he said, pulling her onto the dance floor.Hanna glanced around. All she had to do was drape her arms around his neck, which she did. She felt his hand settle on her waist.Unfortunately, she was clumsy with her feet and kept stepping on his toes."Just follow my lead. Relax. Your body is too stiff," he said.The dance steps were simple.What she
Ethan entered the condo.Hanna hugged herself and hid under the blanket. "Did something happen between us last night? Sorry, I can't remember anything."He handed her a glass of water and some medicine."What do you think?" he replied with a teasing smile.Hanna felt her body. There was no pain in her intimate areas, unlike before when she had difficulty walking because of his large cock.Her cheeks flushed at the memory. Perhaps it was because it was her first time before and now the second that she didn't feel any pain."Get up and take a shower. We'll go to the office together," he said, handing her a new set of clothes and shoes.After showering, Hanna found Ethan preparing breakfast.'Husband material. How sweet,' she thought."Breakfast is ready," he said.She was about to take a bite, but he stopped her. "Let's take a picture first and send it to my mom and grandmother."'Ah, so that's why he made an effort,' she thought.Ethan just wanted to impress the two elders t
"I have a boyfriend now. His name is Dylan. He's an engineer at our building site," Hanna revealed.The room buzzed with whispers.Hanna was certain the news would spread quickly, putting an end to the rumors about her and Ethan.***It was time to go home, and Hanna was exhausted from work. They had rearranged a lot of equipment.Hanna glanced at her phone and noticed numerous missed calls from an unknown number, along with several text messages.She opened them and discovered that Lester was in jail—he had been arrested for shoplifting and was asking for help at the precinct.Hanna suddenly felt a surge of stress. She hurried out of the building and almost collided with Dylan.She grabbed his arm, nearly losing her balance in her rush."Oh, what's wrong?" he asked."My brother, Lester, is at the precinct. I need to go there now," she replied."Let's go. I'll come with you. The car's in the parking lot." He handed his report to a colleague and instructed him to give it to T
Dylan extended his hand to Ethan, fully aware that Ethan would not shake it.Hanna felt a mix of amusement and exasperation—here were two handsome men seemingly ready to fight over her, and neither of them was actually her boyfriend.Edgar emerged and called the men inside. "We have guests! Come in, gentlemen. Let's have a drink."Edgar was thrilled at the prospect of having some alcohol."Mr. Smith, I'll send over some good liquor," Ethan said."Mr. Smith, feel free to order whatever snacks you like," Dylan added.The neighbors were already peeking, recognizing Dylan.The three men began drinking, and Edgar even invited some friends over.Ethan sat beside Hanna and put his arm around her. "Mr. and Mrs. Smith, since I have you both here, I want to ask for Hanna's hand in marriage. We're planning to get married."Hanna caught Dylan's look of surprise out of the corner of her eye but couldn't bring herself to look at him directly.Ethan kissed her forehead and held her hand tig
Hanna began mopping the floor, acutely aware of the weight of all the eyes on her every move.Ethan was incredibly annoying. Why did he have to hold her hand in front of everyone?***Mila approached Hanna during lunch. "Mr. Miller wants to see you in his office."Hanna nodded and decided to visit the bathroom first. She let her hair down, applied some powder, and added a thin layer of lipstick after brushing her teeth. Then, she took the elevator up—she was used to it by now.What could Ethan want to discuss?She found him sitting on the sofa."What can I do for you, Mr. Miller?" she asked, trying to sound cheerful."Drop the 'Mr. Miller' and stop being so formal. We're going to be married. Get used to calling me 'Ethan' or 'sweetheart'. Anyway, I have something for you," he said.He placed a small box on the table. "My gift for your birthday tomorrow."Hanna smiled, pleased that he remembered. She opened the box to reveal a ring with a large stone."A diamond ring for my w
Cali's smile stretched from ear to ear. "I heard everything. So, your relationship with Ethan isn't real?"Hanna immediately pulled her closer to the stairs for a private conversation."Hey, let go of me! What are you planning to do?" Cali demanded, her voice sharp."I'm not planning anything bad. Just don't tell Ethan that you know the truth, or he'll get angry. No one else should know that our relationship is fake," Hanna said.Cali crossed her arms over her chest. "Well, I'm easy to talk to. I won't tell him, but I need a favor from you."This posed a problem."Okay, what favor do you want?" Hanna asked, her brow furrowed."You'll help me win Ethan back once you two break up. I want him back," Cali said."Wait, doesn't he still love you?" Hanna exclaimed.Cali's face brightened. "Really? Did he say that to you?""No, but I think he still loves you.""Really? I thought we couldn't get back together because of you. Looks like we'll be best friends," Cali said.Hanna felt a
Just thinking about being with Ethan all the time at home after they got married seemed unbearable to Hanna, and now they would be together at work as well."Why don't you ask Cali to be your assistant instead? She already knows you, and you can be with her more often," Hanna suggested.Ethan shot back, "Are you turning down my job offer? The salary is 1,200 dollars a month."Her eyes widened. "I would never refuse an order from my superior. I'll start tomorrow.""Good! There's a bonus if I like your performance," Ethan added.What performance was Ethan talking about? She always gave 100% in everything she did.***They walked along the beach, looking at a large cruise ship. They sat on a concrete bench, the wind strong around them."Why did you and Dylan grow distant?" Ethan asked.Hanna was surprised by his question. "His parents didn't like me. They said I was a hindrance to their son's progress. They were right because when Dylan went abroad, he had a better life.""That'
