Yaaayyy!!! We got to see Ethan again. What do you think of the chapter?
Chloe's POV After we were done at the house, I drove to the place where Ari and Marian were. It was one of Ethan's villa around the city. One of the men had driven them there. Bonnie came with me, while Myles said that he had something to do concerning Joshua. The moment I entered the house, I checked on my daughter. And after seeing that she was okay, I located the nearest toilet to spill my guts. I was feeling sick, and my stomach was churning badly. Maybe it was me witnessing people being shot so close to me, or because I learnt that Joshua had Ethan. From my last experience with him, I knew that he was unhinged. "Chloe, are you okay?" It was Bonnie. She had ran after me, and now she was helping me gather and hold my hair up, while I emptied my bowels. I didn't even realize the moment the hair came down. After I was done, I got up and turned to her. From the concerned look she was giving me, I knew that I was not looking my best right now. "Take your clothes off, then shower.
Chloe's POV The next morning, I woke up to missed calls and many texts from Amanda. I felt so guilty, not having contacted her on shown up at work since the last few days. I considered calling her back to explain, but where the hell was I going to start? My fiance was abducted by the man he called his father, and my former obsessed unhinged boss had him? While I flew out of my home with my daughter, because her supposed grand father wants to hurt her? Nah, I gave up on calling her. But I realized that I didn't have much choice in the matter when I was informed that someone was outside, looking for me. I came out of the house, and lo and behold, it was Amanda. "It took me an eternity to locate where you live, miss Summers." One hand was on her hip, and she sounded furious. Her brows were knitted in a tight frown, and she glared at me. She still looked a bit familiar, but I was not bothering to place the face anymore. I swallowed. "Can we please... Talk inside?" "I would rather rem
Ethan's POV The moment I stepped foot back in this city, I called Chloe, but she wasn't taking my calls. I went to the house, only to find just my security guards. Chloe and Ari wasn't home, and the domestic staffs seemed to had vacated the place. But Bryan came after me and informed me of the whole situation. I quickly cleaned up and drove like mad man to the company. And now I was holding her in my arms again. It felt unreal, too good to be true. My whole body that had been tight with tension loosened, and I kept kissing her like I couldn't get enough. "I missed you, mama. I missed you. I am sorry. I am so sorry, mama." I repeated over and over again. She placed her hands on my chest and placed some distance between us. She then let out a sigh and cupped my face. "What happened to you? What did they do?" Her eyes darted around my body as she searched me for any sign of injuries. "I am fine." I assured her. "This week and the last, Ethan, they are the hardest I have ever endur
Chloe's POVEthan was having his bath, while I lay on the bed in one of my skimpy night wears. Different thoughts were running through my head. I had showered earlier, and he did not join me, which was quite unusual, considering how he would not miss any chance to see me naked.I wondered what happened to him. He had still not spoken about it, but I would try to convince him to speak to me, only if he was ready though. I caught him a number of times zoning out, and there was a hollow look in his eyes that disturbed me to no end. Not to mention that he grew really thin.It took a few minutes, but then I heard his footsteps coming out. He had a bathrobe on, while his hair was still damp.He stared at me, allowing his eyes to roam my body. The gown I was wearing stopped shortly after my butt, and it did nothing to hide my cleavage.I got up and went to him. "Look at your hair, still dripping with water. Must I teach you everything?"He grinned wide, but he didn't say anything. I then dra
Ethan's POV I was in my study, staring at my laptop screen, but I really wasn't seeing anything. My mind was messed up, a jumble of thoughts and ideas. I was thinking about Anthony and ways to get rid of him once and for all. I wanted to protect my family, and to do that, the man needed to be out of the picture. But I knew that I needed to take my time and plan very carefully. Who knows what might be going on in his head right now? "Ethan." Chloe's voice startled me, and I turned to the door to see her standing there, looking at me with concern in her eyes. "You should not be awake, Mama. You should be too tired, go back to bed." I knew that she was tired because we had sex over and over into the night. Turned out that being away from each other made our cravings to skyrocket. Ignoring what I said, she came over. She placed her hands on my shoulders, massaging them slowly. "You are the one out here by 3 a.m. You need rest after all that you told me happened to you." "But I have
Chloe's POV I woke up the next morning to meet Ethan beside me, still sound asleep, which was very unlike him. He was always up early because of his work, but I wouldn't blame him. We kept each other awake for most part of the night. Even when he stopped because he feared I could not take more, I still seduced him until he gave in. Now I could feel the effects of all those rides between my legs.I got up and opened the curtains, to see that the sun was already high in the sky, the light seeping into the room, making me squint.I reached for my phone to check the time, and I gasped when I saw that it was almost eleven. At that moment, I heard a knock on the door, and another, and another. I sighed, already knowing that it was my daughter.I walked to the door and opened it, and I met the little one standing there, her hands folded across her chest, and there was a frown on her face. As I was still holding my phone, I just took a picture of her."Good morning, mommy."I chuckled at how
Myles' POV It had been days since I got that weird note, but I could not get it out of my mind. Very few things could make me restless, and this was topping the list. All my life, I had sought for one thing. A family. Maybe not to be a part of them, but just to know them. I didn't have one. I never had. I just wanted to know where I came from. I grew up in a foster home, and for some reason, I kept being moved from one foster home to another, until I escaped. And now, this note had come to taunt my life. I was sitting on my bed right now, holding the rumpled paper in my hand and staring at it. My mother. I never allowed to let myself think of her too much before. But now I found myself doing so. Was she beautiful? Did she love me? Why did she give me up? Did she live a hard life? Was she still alive? If she was, would she like to see me? Would she even be proud of me? I squeezed the paper and threw it away. I didn't even know who it came from in the first place. I decided that I
Bonnie's POV I was beyond stunned to see Myles at my house, but even more taken aback by his look. He was struggling to keep his demeanor calm as usual, the hollow look in his eyes seemed like he was asking for help. I couldn't tell. I didn't understand this man. "What is it? Did something happen to you?" "Can I come in?" He asked instead, and I nodded, still watching him carefully. I led him to the living room, and he slumped on a couch, throwing his head back against the headrest, and covering his face with both hands, frustration evident in him. He was losing his composure badly, and he didn't even seem to care. Something must had happened for him to look this shaken. "Can you talk to me, please?" I went to sit down on the couch he was, expecting him to push me away, but he didn't. He didn't react to me at all. "Please tell me." I was getting both desperate and worried. "Do you have something strong?" He asked. I usually kept a bottle of whiskey or two, but I was not going
