Chapter 10

Ethan

She laughed bitterly before gazing at me with her eyes contorted with rage, making my heart skip in fear.

“The Sonia you knew no longer exists, Ethan. Don’t stop me again.” Her voice is cold and devoid of any emotion.

And with that, she pulled her hand from my grip and walked away, her heels clicking against the polished floor while Jay held her hand tightly and gave me a questionable look.

I stood there, frozen, my heart pounding like a galloping horse as her words echoed in my head.

She didn’t care. Or worse, she didn’t remember me. But I'm not ready to give up. I grabbed my phone and dialed Dave's number.

He picked up on the second ring, “Find out if Sonia is staying at this hotel,” I ordered. “I want confirmation within two hours.”

“Yes, sir,” Dave responded quickly.

I slipped my phone back into my pocket and walked into the investor's suit.

......

As the meeting began, I forced myself to focus but I couldn't, the thought of Sonia filled my mind. I c

    Ethan "What's wrong, Ethan? You don't look alright." Celine asked, raising her hand to touch my cheeks.I gave her a cold glare and she quickly dropped her hand, gazing at me suspiciously. I felt like spanking her on her head for what she just did. I just hope Sonia would not misunderstand. I inhaled more air to control my anger. "We are in public, you shouldn't be doing this," I said through gritted teeth, trying to control the anger that was boiling inside me. She stared at me, her brows furrowed in confusion. “I shouldn't kiss you in public?” she asked, her voice tinged with irritation."We are engaged for God's sake, Ethan," I ignored her, my gaze darting back to where Sonia had been standing. But to my horror, she was no longer there, she's… gone. My heart raced, fear gripping me. Did she leave because of what she just saw? Did she think…? "Oh, Fuck! Fuck!!" I groaned in frustration, looking around to see if I would see her or Jay. Celine followed my gaze, looking arou

    SoniaI ran as fast as my legs could carry me with my heart pounding in my chest. The sting of Ethan’s kiss still lingered on my lips, and the memory of it made my blood boil with anger. How dare he! How dare he kiss me after everything he did to me? How could I have even allowed him to kiss me with the same lips he used in kissing Celine? "Ahhh!!" I groaned in frustration, wiping my lips with the back of my palm.I stepped into the party hall and immediately searched for Jay with my gaze. I sighed softly when I saw him. He was seated exactly where I left him, his small fingers scrolling through his iPad. I quickly made my way towards him. “Jay, we need to go right now,” I said quickly, grabbing his hand without waiting for a response. He looked up, his innocent eyes questioning but he didn’t protest as he slid his iPad into his pocket. “Why, Mommy? Did something happen?” “Nothing happened, sweetheart,” I lied, forcing a smile. “I just feel tired.” Without giving him a c

    Sonia The loud annoying sound of my alarm jolted me out of my sleep. I groaned as I angrily turned it off. I hate it when the sound has to wake me up in the morning like this, especially when I don't have enough night's sleep. Sometimes, I just feel like destroying it but I can't. It's part of the things that made me who I am today. I yawned, taking my time to stretch my limbs before glancing at the alarm clock. It was exactly 6:30 AM.I quickly got out of bed and made my way to the bathroom to freshen up after waking Jay. I don't want to be late since this is my first time going to the company and I need to make a first impression. The hotel room service brought our breakfast as soon as we finished taking our bath. By the time we finished eating our breakfast and dressing up, it was already 7:30 AM. I stood in front of the dressing mirror, adjusting my blazer. The tailored suit hugged my frame perfectly, giving me a sense of confidence I hadn’t felt in a long time.Today mark

    Ethan “Sonia!” I called out, my heart pounding in my chest as I ran after her, trying to get her attention. But she didn’t stop. She seemed to be keen on ignoring me even when I saw Jay tapping her to look back. I hurried my footstep, not minding the shock on my employer's faces as all I wanted at the moment was to get Sonia to listen to me but before I could get to her, she had already stepped into the elevator with Jay. "Sonia! Sonia!!" I called out when I saw the elevator door closing behind her. “Damn it!” I cursed, hitting the wall in frustration, my heart thumping in my chest. "No! No!! No!!! I can't let her go, she needs to listen to me." I mumbled, trying to calm my racing heart as I rushed to my private elevator.As soon as I stepped into my private elevator, I quickly pressed the lobby button, my heart beating rapidly as I watched the numbers on the elevator screen descend. Each second felt like hours as I waited for the next one. After what felt like an eternity, the

    Sonia "Please, drive faster." I urged the driver as I sat in the car with my heart racing in my chest. I can't wait to leave this country. Ethan must not find me. I looked at Jay who was sitting quietly beside me, watching me closely like a guard. He didn't ask any questions but I could see the confusion in his eyes. I smiled and pulled him into a hug, kissing his forehead. I sighed and stared out the window, watching the city blur past. I couldn’t wait to get to Europe. I needed to get far away from Ethan. My heart is heavy with worries as I think about yesterday. I still couldn't believe that Ethan was the president of King's corporation, the person I was supposed to be working with. The excitement of getting the contract from King's Corporation does not allow me to investigate them, to know their president. I have a strong feeling that all this was his plan but it won't work. I won't allow him to get close to me or my son. When I saw Ethan yesterday, the memories of the way

    Sonia The sound of my alarm clock snapped me out of my sleep. I squeezed my eyes open, feeling both nervous and excited. Today is my first day at Johnson Group and I don't want to be late. I had set the alarm clock last night after I came back to the hotel with Jay. "Today is a new day," I muttered as I gazed at Jay who was sleeping peacefully beside me. His innocent face planted a glow in my heart. I could still remember how he jumped around with excitement yesterday at the airport when I told him that we would be staying back in London. I smiled and pecked him on the cheek before pulling the blanket off me and getting out of bed. A yawn escaped my lips while stretching my limbs as I made my way to the bathroom. The memories of the previous day rushed in as soon as I stepped into the bathroom and I couldn't help but smile. After thinking about Johnson Group yesterday and what they are ready to offer, I decided to accept it and I knew I had made the right decision. Shirley’s w

    Sonia I know I haven't met her before, why would she speak to me like that? Why would she ask me to watch my back? I didn’t know her, yet her hatred was clear. A part of me wanted to shrug it off, but another part couldn’t stop wondering why. I was so lost in my thoughts that I was startled when I heard from behind, "Don’t worry about her," I spun around and saw a lady, wearing a blue turtle neck gown, walking towards me with a friendly smile. She looked professional yet approachable, with her neatly tied hair and bright eyes. She stepped closer, lowering her voice as if she wanted to share a secret. "That’s Claire. She was standing in as the acting head before you arrived. You know, she always acts as the boss lady and She thought the president would make her the permanent head of the Design departments." She whispered. "Your arrival came as a shock to her," she giggled, smiling devilishly. I was stunned by her revelation. So, was that why she said that to me? Does she

    Sonia. I sat frozen beside Jay who was looking at me curiously. There was no sign of sleep in his eyes anymore as he looked at me with a serious face. I avoided his gaze, My throat tightening, unable to speak.I had dodged this question so many times, but tonight, with the look on his face, there was no escape for me, I had to answer him. I forced a smile and tried to keep my voice steady. “Jay, like I always say, your daddy lives in a faraway country. I promise you will meet him someday.” My voice was barely above a whisper. My chest tightened with pain as I blinked away the tears that were threatening to come out of my eyes. It broke my heart to keep on lying to him about his father.How can I tell him that he has met his father already? What would be his reaction when he knows that Ethan is his father? "That’s what you always say, mommy. When will he come? Is there no date?" His question sent a shiver down my spine. Jay is growing up and becoming more wise. He must have suspe

    Ethan."Shit!!!" I groaned, pacing forth and back in frustration. I can't believe this. The fact that it was Celine I slept with last night turned me apart. I had felt something was off, but I ignored it. I should have known. Her body was different, the kiss, the scent but I was too drunk to even think. I groaned, my frustration boiling over. This is a mistake, a huge one and now I felt like a cheating husband. "Gush!!!" I needed a shower, I needed to cool the storm brewing inside me. I made my way to the bathroom, my blood boiling with anger. I stepped into the bathroom, turned on the hot water and scrubbed my body as if the water could wash away everything I had done. But it didn’t. It was still there, hanging over me like a dark cloud.After a long shower, I got dressed, still feeling dirty, still feeling angry. As I walked into the living room, making my way to the entrance, I saw Celine with a smile that made my blood boil. “Ethan,” she called with a smile, “I made breakfa

    Celine I woke up and found Ethan lying next to me. My heart raced with excitement as I smiled to myself while gazing at his handsome face. Finally, it has happened! Ethan had finally slept with me. I couldn't contain my joy. Soon, I would have everything I wanted, if I got pregnant and Ethan would have no choice but to marry me. "Wow!" I giggled, rubbing my tummy that will soon carry Ethan's child. You know, last night still felt like a dream to me. I can't believe this. I only came into his room to ask him for some shopping money last night, but when I saw him drinking, I knew it was my chance. Ethan was not the type that could handle alcohol and I was shocked when I saw him drinking. I don't know what might have prompted him to drink but whenever it was, I was grateful. It wasn’t long before he started acting strangely. When he told me to leave, I ignored him and stayed as I knew that it was my only chance. He started acting strangely and when he looked at me, his entire d

    Ethan"Those fools have the guts to order me to leave the estate just because Sonia tells them to!" I groaned, My jaw tightened and I felt my chest burning like fire.I gripped the steering wheel, my heart pounding with frustration as I drove away from Sonia’s apartment. How could she do this? How could Sonia ask the security to throw me out like a common criminal? And worse, how could she keep me away from Jay, my own son? I was happy when I saw them this morning and for the first time in years, I felt hope. Seeing Jay smile at me, running into my arms, it was a moment I had dreamed of for so long. He looked so happy, so innocent. I thought maybe, just maybe, I could start to rebuild what I had broken but I was heartbroken when Sonia told me that they don't need me in their life. I knew she was hurt. I mean, she couldn't just accept me into their life like that after all these years, so I decided to leave, to give her space. When I got to work, I couldn't concentrate and I de

    Sonia Tears of agony blur my vision as I searched everywhere for the spare key to Jay’s room, my hands shaking with panic. The thought of something being wrong with him was tearing me apart. I couldn’t think straight. "I thought I kept it here," I tremble, my heart heavy with fear as I couldn't remember where I kept it. Quickly, I opened the drawer to check if it was there but out of nowhere, I felt small arms wrapped around my waist from behind. I was startled and jumped in fear, holding my chest which was pounding rapidly. "Who is that?" I turned around quickly and I was stunned when I saw Jay standing with tears streaming down his face. His red, swollen eyes broke my heart into a thousand pieces. “Jay… Jay, my boy.” I whispered, dropping to my knees and pulling him into my arms. He clung to me tightly, crying hard against my chest. "Mommy," He whispered, his voice cracking with tears. “I’m so sorry,” I choked out, stroking his back. “I never wanted to hurt you. Please

    Sonia “Sonia, what’s wrong?” Alex asked, his voice laced with concerns as he hastened his pace towards me. I opened my mouth to speak, but no words came out. Instead, tears kept pouring uncontrollably out of my eyes. My body trembled as I stood there, unable to stop myself. “Did something happen to you?” He questioned, taking my hand. But I couldn't respond, I just nodded, wiping the tears that had blurry my vision. Without hesitation, Alex stepped closer and pulled me into his arms. “It’s okay,” he whispered, his voice calm and soothing. “Let it out. Whatever it is, I’m here for you.” He said, stroking my hair. I clung to him, my tears soaking his shirt. The warmth of his embrace felt like the only thing holding me together. For the first time today, I didn’t feel completely alone. After a moment, I managed to pull myself together, though my chest still ached. Alex pulled back slightly, his hands resting on my shoulders as he studied my face before wiping my tears with the

    Sonia Jay turned to me, his small frame trembling with anger. His voice, which was usually soft and filled with love, was now cold and sharp. “Leave my room,” he said firmly, his words cutting through me like a blade. My heart sank, shattering into pieces. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. “Jay, please,” I pleaded, stepping closer to him. “Just let me explain.” But he shifted back, his face hardening as he pulled his arm from my grasp. “Don’t touch me,” he said, his voice trembling with a mixture of anger and pain. “I’ve been suspecting it for a while now but I wanted to hear it from you." His voice broke as tears fell down his cheeks, breaking my heart into pieces. What! What does he mean he has been suspecting it? Does it mean he knew all along? "How do you mean, honey?" My voice trembled, "You know Ethan was your Dad?" "I just felt it," He shrugged his shoulders with a bitter smile, "The way I feel calm around Mr. Ethan was unusual and whenever I look at him... it i

    Sonia I left my lawyer's office with my heart heavy with worries. The thought of losing Jay made my heart ache with pain but it seems there is nothing I can do. I have to tell Jay the truth before he hears it from Ethan. I stepped into my car and allowed my tears out while squeezing my chest which was burning with pain. I never thought this day would come. The day when I have to share Jay with Ethan, the man who doesn't hesitate to throw us out because of a woman. "Ahh!!" I groaned, wiping my tears. No one understands the pain of losing a child better than the mother.I drove to work feeling completely drained. My mind kept replaying the events from earlier. The thought made my heart ache, but I pushed it aside as I walked into the office building. I smiled faintly at the receptionist as I passed, though I barely saw her. My head was a mess, my heart even worse. By the time I reached my office, I felt like I was carrying a mountain on my shoulders. I dropped my bag on the desk

    Chapter 26Celine I stormed out of Ethan's room with rage. I still couldn't believe that Ethan would reject me after all the effort I put in. I stepped into my room and slammed the door so hard it shook the wall, my whole body trembling with rage. How dare Ethan turn me down after everything I’ve done? The humiliation burned like fire in my chest. No man had ever rejected me before, and I won't allow Ethan to be the first. "Ahhh!!!!" I let out a furious scream, grabbing a vase from the table and smashing it against the wall. The Pieces flew in every direction, but I didn’t care. I feel like I am going mad. I grabbed a pillow next, tearing at the fabric as if it were the source of all my problems. My breathing was heavy, and tears of frustration stung my eyes. How could Ethan turned a beauty like me down? Is he not a man!! Gush!! Suddenly, the door creaked open, and two maids rushed in. They gazed at me in shock, their wide eyes darted between me and the mess I had made. “Ma

    Sonia I sat at the dining table with Jay, scrolling through a report that Tara sent me on my phone. There is a presentation coming up next week and I need to prepare for it since this will be my first presentation. "Good morning, ma'am." Caro greeted me with a bow before serving the breakfast. “Mommy, I forgot to tell you something yesterday,” Jay's cheerful voice jolted me out of my thoughts. “Hmm? What is it?” I asked, glancing at him while still scrolling my phone. “I saw Mr. Ethan at school yesterday,” Jay said casually, smiling as he took a bite from his toast. “He even bought me ice cream!” My heart raced as the words hit me like a bolt of lightning. My hand trembled and my phone nearly slipped from my fingers.I slowly looked up at him, my chest tightening. “Who did you say you saw?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper. “Mr. Ethan,” Jay repeated, smiling innocently. “He was really nice, Mommy! Our teachers even said we look alike and I told them he's my father!
