Ethan's POV It had been three days since I brought Chloe back home with me, and it had been perfect. I had not even been to work. I was just spending time, pampering her as much as I could. There was a lot I needed to do, but everything could wait. Chloe and my daughter were my utmost priority. Seeing my daughter cling to her mother, and watching the relationship between them was wholesome. Ariana missed her a lot, and now she was always glued to her. Chloe wasn't complaining though. I was the only one annoyed. Sometimes I needed her mother to myself in my bedroom, but my daughter would block my way. She was always invading on our privacy, and I was really considering giving her to Bonnie for a few days. Someone clearing her throat drew me out of my thoughts. I had just resumed work, and I was faced with the real world again. In front of me, sat Loretta Davis. She was Ashley's mother. I had expected someone from the Davis' family to pay me a visit sooner or later. I 'messed' with th
Chloe's POV Marian told me the most shocking thing today, and I could not stop being shocked. Today was Ethan's birthday, and I had no idea. He didn't mention it. Like nothing at all. He even went to work like every other normal day. Maybe he did not like to celebrate it, but he should had at least stayed at home. I wanted to make the day special to him, but I had no idea what to do, and there was no notice at all. What could I possibly buy for a billionaire that he would cherish? I was very much aware that he would appreciate anything I get for him, no matter the size or price, but I wanted something that would mean something to him. I had been surfing through the internet, and everything I found was something Ethan could easily just buy for himself. Fuck, I didn't know that being with a billionaire could be hard until now. I decided to call Bonnie and ask for help, and she picked up in the first ring. "Hey girl!" Her voice came in, a little too excited. "I was going to call you
Ashley's POVI was lying on the bed in my room. In fact, I had not come out of my room for days. I had the house staff bring food and everything I need to me. My parents were decent enough to give me some time to myself. But that was about to change.A knock came on my door, making me frown."Go away, I don't need you." I responded, thinking it was one of the staff."Ash, open up, we need to talk." It was mom.I ignored her, but she would not give up. She kept knocking, until I got up and opened the door. She walked inside and reclined the sofa facing my bed, while I walked back to my bed."Ash, talk to me.""There is nothing to talk about. You got what you wanted, go away.""Oh, fuck this! I am not going to entertain any more of your tantrums. You are not a child, stop acting like one. What do you want me to do? Force him?" She yelled at me."You could have called off the alliance. He might have a rethink."She shook her head. "He will not. He loves that woman, and he will not be lea
Ethan's POV The next day, I decided to take Chloe and Ari out for our date. Truth was that I still had no idea where we were going, but I know that I would figure it out. I opened the back door for my daughter, before placing her in the seat and closing the door. I then turned to Chloe who was standing beside me. I wrapped my hands around her waist and pulled her close to me, making her smile. I did not know who moved first, but the next thing I knew, we were kissing. She wrapped her hands around my neck, and deepened the kiss. It felt so damn good, that I was tempted to take it further, or at least do something naughty, but our daughter was watching us, and she would not be taking her eyes off anytime soon. I bit her lower lip lightly, making her pull away from the kiss and just rest her forehead on mine. She looked so beautiful, and I would never get tired of admiring how good she looked. "Do I really have you for myself now?" She asked as if in disbelief. "No Ashley? No your fa
Bonnie's POV Ethan and Myles finally let me go. Apparently, I learnt that Anthony was off my back, because Ethan threatened him that if he makes a single move against me, he would expose his sexual obsession for young girls. A man of his status and reputation would not risk that. I wonder how hurt his ego would be now. Myles offered to drive me home himself. I declined at first as I did not want to trouble him, but he insisted and I agreed. I actually did like it, as I tend to enjoy his company, and I knew that I would miss him. Myles was a man of few words, but I always tried to get those words out of him. "I never really got to know what you do for a living." I asked him after he drove out of the house. "I do a lot of things." He responded flatly, but I decided to push. "Like?" "Farming." "Farming?" I asked, quite taken aback. Not that farming was bad, but I could not picture him a farmer. "I have other businesses too, but I prefer my farm." I just nodded. He was... Interes
Bonnie's POVToday would be my first day going to the academy, and Jeremy offered to drive me."Are you actually going to learn how to make dresses there, because I think you are perfect already."I chuckled. "You can never learn enough. Apart from that, I will have so much opportunity when I want to start up my business fully. You know, I always aim high.""Greed Bonnie, greed."I chuckled. "Call it whatever you like."He glanced my way and smiled at me. "I really wish for you to get what you want, little sister. You have worked very hard for it.""And then I can buy you a house and another car."He rolled his eyes. "Sounds like a plan.""So tell me, Jer, what have you been up to?"Jeremy had a job, but I knew that he had been wanting to quit to start up something else. I had no idea if it was working for him or not. Maybe I was just a horrible sister.He smiled. "When it works out, I will let you know.""Must you keep me in the dark?!" I almost yelled."Be patient. I want this to be
Ethan's POVChloe asked me to let Joshua go, so I did. She thought it wasn't worth it. I believed that the few hits he got was enough though. And I let him off with a warning that I would end his career if he messes with my family again. I planned to do that already, but since Chloe didn't want any of such, I decided against it. I just hoped that he would be smart enough to stay away, because I would ruin him if he dares something funny again.Days rolled by, and everything was normal, going so smoothly. Chloe had once told me that it seemed too good to be true, and even though I told her that it was just her fears, I felt the same way too. I felt like everything became so easy.When had things ever been easy for me? When was the last time I was happy? I was not doing things to please my father at all, just myself, Chloe and Ari. It felt so unreal to me, that I feared that something would come change it soon. I was not used this, used to happiness. I had given up on my own wants, just
Bonnie's POVMy days in the academy were going well, until I met someone I didn't expect to see in this place, Ashley fucking Davis. What the fuck was the pampered princess of hell doing here? She surely didn't come as a student, did she? Maybe she wanted someone to make her a dress or something.But then, my mind was totally blown when I learnt that she was in fact a new student here. The sight of her alone seemed to irritate the hell out of me.She carried herself with a kind of arrogance that seemed to come natural to her, and she spoke to people like her father owned the establishment. Well, I would not be surprised if he did.I was in one of the rooms one afternoon. I had just finished with making a dress, which I might consider to be one of the most complicated I had ever made. People stopped to admire my work, and I was hella proud.It was a silk dinner dress, intricately and elegantly sewn, as it falls to the ground in ripples. It was designed lace, embroideries and pearls tha
