Thank you for reading :-) Massive update today!!!
“Take a walk with me!!” Anderson said to Ethan. They walked silently for some time in the gardens. Anderson looked deep in thought as he placed his hands behind his back when he finally spoke, “Did you see that? He will never take your side and if I die today, he will fight you for that company, and not even my will can save you when the shareholders turn against you!”“Why not just give it to him then?” Anderson turned and hit Ethan in the head unexpectedly, “You ungrateful little brat!” “Ouch! Grandpa!” Ethan complained. Anderson stopped in his tracks and sighed heavily, “Giving him the position is something I'll never do. You need to secure it and make sure the company doesn't fall into the wrong hands. Can I trust you with that?” Ethan looked at his grandfather and noticed that he wasn't telling him everything. There was something he was hiding but decided not to push him any further. “Yes.” “Good. Now, when are you bringing Rose back home? You two need a son very quickly s
Laura Andrea Sinclair MotherDaughterFriend1984 ~ 2004Ethan sat at his mother's grave and looked at it with a broken heart. He had arrived two hours ago but still hadn't said a word. He was broken, hurt, and ashamed as he ran his hands on the words written boldly. After his confrontation with his father, he immediately got on his private jet and flew to Canmore town. It was a very small town with a small population, but that was what She requested in her will. The instructions were too clear and well planned it was almost as if she knew she was going to die. Laura had a weak heart, she was on a list for a transplant when the surgery went wrong and she didn't make it. Ethan was only ten years old at the time. Andrew however, remarried six Months after her death Which raised curious concerns. Being the most powerful family in Suncity meant they always had eyes on them. Many media houses speculated that he was already cheating before his wife died. But that was dismissed since no
Ethan choked at the question and stared at the innocent-looking girl, “What's your name, princess?” He asked.“Daisy!” She responded cheerfully. “What about you?”“My name is Ethan.” Ethan smiled.“So can you be my play, Dad? My friends laugh at us at school because we don't have a dad.” Daisy said with a sad faceEthan hesitated. He didn't want to make a promise he couldn’t keep. He found her extremely adorable, but he lived far away in Suncity. What if he gave her force hope and only ended up disappointing her?“I’m sorry, kid. I can’t.” Ethan said sadly, “But I can get you something nice before I leave.”“Okay. I guess that’s fine. Can you at least help me convince Mummy to give me a pass? I don't want to dance at the school concert!"“I don’t know if that will work in your favor.” Ethan roughed her hair, making a giggle escape her throat. He watched as her eyes shut while she laughed at the way he played with her. The more he looked at her, the more she looked like Rose. If not
The school auditorium buzzed with excitement as parents found their seats, chatting loudly before the concert started. Rose walked slowly, her hand gripping Daisy’s a bit tighter than usual. Her heart raced, but she couldn’t pinpoint why. Daisy had been unusually excited all week, insisting she had someone special to introduce.Could it be? She wondered but shook off the thought and figured it was impossible. What would he be doing in such a small town anyway?“Mommy, hurry up! We have to find him!” Daisy tugged impatiently, pulling her mother through the crowded hallway.“Find who, sweetheart?” Rose asked, trying to keep her tone light even though her nerves were on edge. “You’ll see!” Daisy said a secretive smile on her lips.‘My Daddy looks a lot like Caleb! I’ll help mummy finally find happiness so she can stop crying herself to sleep most nights!’ Daisy thought as she bit her bottom lip.Marie, Rose’s aunt, followed behind with Caleb, who seemed less interested in the concert and
As Ethan's anger flared, he took a menacing step toward Mason, his face flushed with rage as his grey eyes darkened like a powerful storm. The idea of another man laying claim to Rose and potentially being Daisy's father was more than he could bear. The words Rose spoke hit him in the gut and shattered his hope.His fists clenched at his sides, his gaze locked on Mason and all he saw was red. “I’ll break every fucking bone in your body.” He growled. “Ethan, stop,” Rose’s voice pleaded but it only angered him more.“So, you’re even defending him now?” He asked with a raised brow. “Be civil for once!” Rose snapped, “You’re not needed here. Just go back to your world and leave us be!”Rose tried to sound confident but her heart was pumping wildly in her chest. She knew Ethan was ruthless and powerful. He could easily disfigure Mason and no one would say anything about it, so she stood in front of Mason shielding him with her body.Ethan watched Rose’s action and his jaw ticked, “What f
Rose, did you hear what I just said?” Marie asked. Rose snapped back and realized she had zoned out and smiled apologetically, “I’m sorry Aunt. What did you say?”After going back and forth with Ethan, She couldn't manage to make him angry enough to leave. He stayed and watched Daisy dance while he took videos like the father of the year.Rose watched with a heavy heart and wondered if she was being unfair to her kids. Daisy was in her happiest moment with him as they did silly things after the dance like painting each other on the face.“She looks happy.” Mason had whispered in her ear and it broke her. The words Ethan said hit her like a wave as she looked into Mason's eyes. If he continued to be close to her, he would be in danger. But she couldn't bring herself to say anything mean to him or hurt him enough to make him leave.She may not have fallen in love with him, but she liked him and found him extremely kind. Thinking of a way to keep Ethan away, she turned to Mason, “Do you
The rest of the week went by smoothly without any more disturbances from Ethan. Rose also noticed that he no longer came to their branch anymore. A part of her was disappointed.“Has he finally given up?” She mumbled to herself as she finalized her latest creation.She was working on a necklace that would be part of the launch exhibition. The company allocated millions towards her budget to get her the materials she needed, so she was putting in her very best to make it a one-of-a-kind jewelry.Sighing as she settled for which stone to use, her mind kept going back to the pink diamond Ethan had bought for her the other day. “Why are you still in my head?” She breathed as she looked at the diamond on the computer screen.It would be extremely fitting to use it but they couldn’t afford it. So she tried to search for something that would be cheaper but none of the other stones made sense.A knock on her door made her look up before she responded, “Come in.”Ben peeped in with a grumpy Cla
“What happened?” Ethan asked.Rose hesitated.“Rose, this is work and nothing personal you’re going to have to talk so we can work it out,” Ethan said.“I was sure it was you,” Rose responded, feeling defeated. Ethan leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, studying her carefully. “So, if it wasn’t me, who do you think is behind it?”Rose bit her lower lip, thinking. "I don't know. I just assumed... well, you're usually the one who—""—makes your life difficult?" Ethan finished for her, a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth."Yes," Rose admitted, feeling a mix of frustration and embarrassment. "But this time, it seems like someone else is trying to sabotage the launch."Ethan’s expression hardened. "I’ve never tried to sabotage your work.”"After what you said last time, I don’t think I’d believe you right now,” Rose responded.“If I’ve done something I wouldn’t hide it from you baby.” Ethan stood.Hearing the word ‘baby’ Made Rose shift uncomfortably as she tried to act unbother
