Chapter 18
WHAT A LONG DAY, Michelle thought.
She exhaled and massaged the bridge of her nose. It was one hell of a family dinner that had taken almost four hours of her remaining night. The family she just dealt with must’ve missed one another so much. A lot of topics, laughter, and even jokes were talked about. Ethan’s parents acted like nothing ever happened when their son left the dining room for a couple of minutes. They acted so perfectly, proving how great liars they were.
It was almost midnight when Michelle and Ethan arrived home. They both went upstairs, and before Michelle could enter her bedroom; her husband threw her one unbelievable question.
"What do you think about my parents? They are greatly kind, aren’t they?"
She spun around to face him. He was glancing at her. His expression was soft.

In one instance, the guilt on their faces was evident.Michelle's mouth trembled. Her tears continued to fall down her cheeks. She took a long breath and paused because what had just occurred was too much for her to grasp, and it had struck her right in the core.She expected her career at the company to come to an end shortly. Nobody made her feel welcome within the place. The employees refused to accept her no matter how hard she tried to show them that she was capable.

Her chest swelled and she glared fiercely at her husband.She stayed speechless and just stared up at Ethan, who was obviously getting eaten up by his high emotions.

Clenching her hand, she mustered the courage to speak up."You don’t understand where I am coming from." She shook her head. "That’s why it’s easy for you to say that. I clearly told you before that I wanted to protect my reputation, but what did you do? You signed the contract and yet you breached it yourself—"She wasn’t able to finish her words as Ethan pinned her on the couch and kissed her on the lips. She was shocked at what he did. Her eyes were wide open and her lips couldn’t make a single move. But it was just

Following that particular event, Ethan made an official announcement the next day, declaring to the world that he was finally married to none other than her. He did not leave any single piece of information, thus her identity became known to every single person inside and outside the company in just one statement."Don’t you find it too romantic?

HER THOUGHTS swirled chaotically, her stomach twisting and her arms tightening as she glanced at the man sitting on his swiveling chair and looking at her intently."What did you say?" she asked, her voice fainting, seemingly unable to believe what she had just heard and hoping she had heard it wrong."Your father was arrested. He got himself into gambling trouble again."Michelle caught her breath. Her eyes widened at the sudden news that struck her to the core. Even though she did not receive the love and affection from the old man, she couldn’t deny how worried she had become right now. Even her palms were sweating."At which police station is he imprisoned? I need to go check on him," she asked, going into an instant panic.Ethan let out a sigh and leaned his back against his chair. "I already took care of it.""What?""I paid the penalty so the cops could let him out."Michelle was speechless. She didn’t know h

MICHELLE flipped around when she felt the sunshine peeping through the curtains. She let out a gasp, feeling the throbbing pain in her head."Where am I?" she asked herself.Her eyes surveyed the room. She drew in a breath, seeing the familiar stuff in the secret room with her husband. Everything that happened last night began to replay in her mind in the blink of an eye, from how Ethan saved her from a perverted man in the bar, to how she teased him inside the car, and how she initiated everything until they ended up warming each other on the bed."Fuck," was the only word she could utter.She palmed her face and could not help but wince. She could feel the sourness of the spot in between her legs, which served as a reminder of her insanity.
