Maria’s POV

I had barely gotten any sleep last night, I was up the moment the sun rose in the sky, I was out of bed, I could not calm down, today was the day Ethan began his treatment, today was the starting point to fixing him for good.

I could barely contain my excitement as I raced through taking a shower and getting dressed, by the time I got downstairs, I found that Ethan was already there looking neat and clean in a white button up shirt and blue jeans, his hair was still damp from the shower and he simply looked delectable.

I smiled at him when his eyes fell on him, I walked over to him, he opened his arms and I stepped right into them, he pulled me to his chest and hugged me lightly.

“Good morning love, you look beautiful as always” he said to me.

His chest vibrated as he spoke and sent delicious sparks all over my body “You don’t look so bad yourself” I said as I smiled against his chest.

    Chapter 70Alex’s POVIt had been two hours after Ethan and Dr. Carter had started their session, I was seated in the living room with Maria who was on edge, she had been pacing and she looked absolutely restless, I was getting dizzy just seeing her move around like that.“Can you calm down please? You are making me dizzy with all your pacing” I said to her when I could no longer bear it.she turned to look at me and I realized she had been nibbling on her nails as well “Really Maria? Nibbling on your nails?” I said with a small smile.“Oh shut up you, leave me alone” she said as she finally collapsed into a sofa close to her.I simply smiled and carried on with what I was doing on my phone, she will calm down eventually.“How do you think it’s going?” she asked me after she had been silent for exactly 2 seconds.I had to resist the urge to exhale loudly “I am sure its going fine which is why everywhere is still quiet, if it was going otherwise, chaos would have filled the mansion by

    Chapter 71Maria’s POVAlex’s departure was strange and sudden but I did not have the time to dwell on it because Dr. Carter suddenly said “I will like to have a word with your mother Maria dearest, can you take me to her?” I knew this confrontation was not one that could be avoided but still I had to try my best “ Is there a chance that you might be willing to let this go? I know my mother has wronged you and you are justified to be mad at her, to hate her even but please I am begging you, going into a battle with my mother will not benefit you” I said to her, this was more for Dr. Carter’s protection than it was for my mother, my mother was ruthless and showed no mercy to her enemies.A smile crossed Dr. Carter’s face and then she said “Don’t worry about me Dear, I seek no benefit from all this neither do I have anything to lose, it is just something I need to do” “Dr. Carter, please listen to me, my mother is not a person to have as an enemy, she will ruin you” I said to her.A l

Did you find it nice or even productive?” she asked.I wondered the word to use in describing my time with Dr. Carter, pondering on it for a second, I could only come up with one “I believe it was quite eye-opening in a way” I said to her.“I am glad you enjoyed it, I had thought it might be painful or something” she said.I chuckled and said “Did you think she was going to stick wires in my brain and electrocute me?” “Something like that” she said with a small smile.I caressed her face gently and said “I will be fine dear, don’t worry about me, I think she will be very effective in treating me” It was really how I felt, for some re

I wondered if perhaps I was a curse or something like that.I had no right to care for both of them as I did now, I just brought pain and darkness into their lives.I heard footsteps approaching my room and I recognized them as that of my mother.She walked in and gave me a look that told me she was not pleased with my current state.“Why on earth are you sitting on the floor like that? Get up right now and put on some clothes for heaven’s sake” she snapped at me.“Leave me alone mother” I said weakly.“Stop bei
