Ethan

I swung the door open with my trembling hand, expecting to see Sonia and Jay, but the doorway was empty.

I quickly stepped outside and that was when I saw Sonia’s car speeding away.

A cold sweat ran down my, my heart pounding in my chest.

No! No!!. This is not happening. What am I going to do?

"Did Sonia hear my conversation with Celine?" Different thoughts run through my head.

“Damn it!” I cursed under my breath, my pulse quickening.

She must have seen Celine or worse, heard something. My stomach twisted. This is my greatest fear.

I knew Sonia would never trust me again, not after everything I put her through and now, this... This mess with Celine would make it worse.

I pulled out my phone, my fingers trembling as I dialed her number. It rang once, then it went straight to voicemail.

“No... no, no, no.” I paced back and forth, running my hand through my hair in frustration.

I dialed again. “Pick up, Sonia, pick up!!" I muttered, my voice barely above a whisper.

    SoniaMy hands trembled on the steering wheel as I drove home. Tears of heartbreak blurred my vision as my chest felt tight, like someone was squeezing the air out of me, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t stop Celine’s voice from echoing in my head. “I’m pregnant, Ethan.” Those words stabbed my heart like a knife, over and over again. I could still hear Ethan’s voice, the disbelief, the hesitation, and then the worst part... his silence. I blinked my eyes, pushing the tears back, but they kept falling. My heart felt like it was shattered into a thousand pieces, too broken to ever be whole again. How could he do this to me again? I thought he had changed. I thought he meant it when he said he cared, when he said he wanted to fix things. Just last night, I stupidly decided to give him a chance for the sake of Jay, to let him back into our life while forgetting that he still has feelings for Celine, that he would always choose her over me. "Ahh!!" I'm such a fool to

    SoniaI woke up the next morning with swollen eyes and a pounding headache. My entire body felt heavy as if the weight of yesterday’s pain had seeped into my bones. I let out a shaky breath and glanced at the clock. It was already past eight. I thank God today is Sunday because I don't think I am strong enough to go to work.I dragged myself out of bed and went to the bathroom. I stared at my reflection in the mirror and the person staring right back at me made my stomach twist.My eyes were red and puffy, my face pale and lifeless. I looked like a woman who had lost everything, like the woman from five years ago. I splashed cold water on my face, hoping it would bring me back to reality but no amount of water could cleanse the ache in my chest. I forced myself downstairs and headed straight to the kitchen. I wasn’t hungry, I haven't been since yesterday but Jay needed to eat. I couldn’t let my pain affect him. I brewed some tea, fried eggs, and toasted bread. The smell of fo

    EthanI froze, My heart slammed against my rib cage the moment I saw Sonia. Her eyes were filled with hatred and pain, which pierced my heart like a thousand arrows. I could barely breathe but when my gaze shifted and I saw Daniel standing beside her, my blood boiled. What the hell is he doing with her? Earlier, I was so desperate to see Sonia, to find a way to explain everything to her but all my efforts proved abortive. I was running out of options when I received a text anonymously, telling me to come to the shopping mall if I wanted to know what was happening with Sonia. At first, I thought it was a prank. I almost ignored it but when the second message came, mentioning Sonia again, I couldn’t risk it. But now, seeing her with this bastard, I knew he was the one that texted me. He wanted me to see him with Sonia. Gush! I feel like punching him in the face. I clenched my fists and moved toward her, my footsteps heavy and my heart pounded with every step. “Sonia,” I c

    Sonia's POV I smiled as I baked the cake with excitement. Today is a special day for me. It's my wedding anniversary with my husband, Ethan. But this year was special, there was something even more precious to be celebrated. I'm pregnant and the thought of it makes my stomach swell with joy. After my miscarriage last two years, I hadn't gotten pregnant since then. I was shocked when the doctor handed me the result and told me that I was pregnant. I couldn't contain my joy as I screamed with excitement. I'm planning to surprise Ethan with my pregnancy result tonight even though Things haven't been going well between us for a while now but I can't wait to see his reaction, to watch his face light up when I told him the news. I spent the entire day preparing as the kitchen buzzed with the aroma of his favorite dishes. The table was set, Everything was perfect and My hands trembled slightly as I placed the final touches, imagining the surprise and happiness in his eyes when he wal

    Sonia's POV I watched Ethan leave the house, his words echoing in my mind, giving me three days to pack and leave. I wanted to believe that it wasn’t real, that he would come back and we would talk it through. If there were problems between us, I was ready to work them out, to fix whatever was broken. Divorce wasn’t an option for me—not after everything we've been through, not now that I'm carrying his child. I just needed him to come back home, to see me, to see us and to know that I was carrying his child. I sank into the couch that was close to me as I cried like a child with my whole body trembling from emotions and shock."Where do I go wrong? Why can't Ethan love me?" Tears of heartbreak streamed down my cheeks. "Oh, please! Don't act so surprised and heartbroken. Do you think that my handsome and rich brother was going to remain with a lowlife like you? I told you, it's only a matter of time." Tina, Ethan's step-sister said with a sinister smile, rolling her eyes as she str

    Sonia's POV "Sonia was never pregnant." He blurted out, coldly, "The child was the only reason why I accepted to marry her when mother was forcing me. I found out later that she lied about being pregnant just to have me marry her." His voice was cold, cruel, and filled with bitterness. "I knew it. I knew she was up to no good but It's okay, my love. Everything will be fine now that I'm back." Celine replied. My blood went cold, I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I sat frozen on the bed, my hand trembling as I listened. Ethan thought I lied about being pregnant just to have him marry me? How could he think of that? Was that the reason why he started acting cold towards me after my miscarriage? No, I can't believe this. My breath caught in my throat as I remembered that terrible day, the day my whole world collapsed.I had been so happy, so full of hope. The child growing inside me had been the one thing that gave me purpose in this hollow marriage. But all that changed when

    Ethan's POV I thought when I marry Sonia, I would learn to love her and forget about Celine but I was wrong. My heart still beat for her, no matter how hard I tried to convince myself otherwise.Celine was my childhood friend and my first love. Even though she was the one who cheated on me, I was ready to forgive and take her back. Sounds crazy right? But that was how much I loved her. I never knew Sonia had always wanted to have me, to take Celine’s position in my life until the day our drinks was drugged, leading to sexual encounter between us. I only asked her to pretend to be my financee pending on when the scandal would dies out. But then, she told me she was pregnant. I was shocked.. confused. I asked her to give me time, to let me process everything because I wasn’t ready for this kind of commitment, especially not with my secretary, someone I didn’t love. I didn’t know how, but somehow, my mother found out about the pregnancy before I could even figure things out for mysel

    Sonia's POV "And with this new design concept, we project a 30% increase in our sales for the next two years,” Jake, one of my senior designers, said confidently as he pointed to the screen. The room was silent, except for the clicking of his laser pointer and the hum of the air conditioning. The rest of my workers watched me expectantly, waiting for my reaction. I leaned back in my chair, my fingers intertwined on the desk in front of me. It was a good presentation... no, it was great. They had worked tirelessly on this, and it showed.“That’s... impressive, Jake,” I said with a smile. “You’ve all done a fantastic job. Let’s proceed with this strategy and you all will be getting a bonus for this.”Jake and the rest of the workers exchanged relieved smiles, their faces washed with joy as they all shouted and jumped with excitement. I knew they had put their all into this, and they deserved to feel proud. "Thank you, ma'am." They appreciated, bowing their heads. I watched as they

    EthanI couldn’t wipe the smile off my face as I drove home. Sonia was finally allowing me back into her life, allowing me to be a part of Jay’s life again. It... It felt like a dream. This is something I have been waiting for my entire life and it is finally happening. The dinner we shared earlier, the way Jay had looked at me with such joy, and Sonia’s smile... It was like we were a family again. For the first time, everything felt right. I wanted it to last forever.I pulled into the driveway, my heart still filled with excitement.When I stepped into the living room, The maids greeted me. "Welcome, sir." They greeted, "Dinner is ready, should we serve you?" "No, I have eaten," I said with a smile and made my way to my room. I decided to freshen up as soon as I stepped into my room. I hummed a song as I took off my clothes and went to the bathroom. I was so happy, I felt alive, it like I was walking on air.My phone was ringing by the time I finished taking a shower. I wrapp

    Sonia By the time we got home, I was completely exhausted. My headache was creeping back, and all I wanted to do was rest. Ethan must have noticed because he suddenly said, “You relax. I’ll make dinner.” I blinked at him. “What? No, you don’t have to.” “Please, Mommy,” Jay interrupted. “I want to see if Daddy’s food tastes as good as yours.” I opened my mouth to protest, but Ethan smirked. “You heard the boss. Looks like I’m cooking tonight.” I sighed in defeat. “Fine. But don’t burn my kitchen.” Ethan chuckled. “Trust me. I will sweep you off your feet with my cooking skills,” he said with confidence and went to the kitchen with Jay. As I sat on the couch, I watched him roll up his sleeves and get to work. He looked so handsome, like a perfect husband and for the first time, our home felt warm, and enjoyable like the family I always dreamed of having. But I couldn’t shake the feeling that I might never have that perfect family, all this is just for today and it made

    Sonia I took a deep breath before opening the door and I felt my heart skip a beat when I saw him. He looked more handsome as he dressed casually in a navy blue shirt and jeans. The way he smiled at me sent butterflies to my stomach. “Good morning,” he said, his voice soft and calm. “Morning,” I replied, swallowing hard as I stepped aside to let him in. Jay came running out of the living room. “Daddy!” he shouted, running from the living room and throwing himself into Ethan’s arms. Ethan grinned, lifting Jay from the ground. “Hey, buddy! Look at you..... It's as if you’re getting taller every day!” he teases. Jay giggled. “No, I’m not! Mommy says I’m still short.” I rolled my eyes playfully. “I said you’re just perfect.” Ethan looked at me, his eyes soft. “He is perfect. Just like his mom.” I looked away quickly. “Would you like something to eat?” I asked as he sat down on the couch with Jay on his lap. Ethan blinked, clearly surprised. “Eat?” I crossed my arms a

    Alex Damn it! I never knew the idiot would have the guts to fire at me but anyway, I was quick to dodge the bullet and it shattered the glass behind me. Before he could take another shot, my security team responded. They shot his leg and he collapsed to the ground, clutching his leg and screaming in pain. “Don’t kill me! Please, have mercy!" he cried in pain, tears streaming down his face. "You have the guts, the temerity to shoot at me?!" I asked through gritted teeth as I was breathless with anger. “Please... Please... Don't kill me, I have a wife and kids!” He pleaded, still holding his leg that was bleeding. I stepped closer, my anger boiling over. “You should’ve thought about them before shooting at me, before you chose to ruin someone else’s life!"He sobbed, but I didn’t care. I turned to my men. “Get him out of here. And make sure he doesn’t see daylight for a very long time.” I wanted to hand him over to the authorities but for him to have the guts and shoot at me,

    Alex I sat on my seat with my eyes fixed on Clare who was wrapping up her presentation. The crowd clapped politely, but I could already tell they weren’t that impressed with her design. Her designs were good, sure... but not great.I leaned back in my chair, staring at the empty stage where Sonia would soon stand. My heart pounded slightly. I couldn’t wait to see her designs. Is not like I haven't seen it before, I have seen a few of her designs and they were incredible. Unlike Clare’s predictable patterns, Sonia’s work was fresh, bold, and unique. Her designs were the kind you didn’t see anywhere else.... like rare gems. That’s why I trusted her to make this presentation a success. I knew after today, investors would be lining up, eager to work with my company. But this is not just about business now, it is about proving something. I glanced at Clare, who was beaming as she stepped off the stage, acting like she had won already. I smiled softly as I remembered how she had com
