The Billionaire's Serendipitous Love Chapter 37
Ethan's POVI opened my eyes, and there she was, standing in front of me. Emily looked concerned, and I wondered if I looked as tired as I felt. "I think it would be more comfortable if you went inside to sleep you look uncomfortable on the couch." I knew she was right.I wondered why she hadn't told me she was coming back late. I knew I shouldn't let her know I was worried, as I didn't want to make her feel special. "You would have told me you were coming back late." I kept my voice steady."I'm sorry." Her voice was apologetic. "I didn't know I would spend so much time." She seemed to be telling the truth, but I still felt a twinge of doubt. "Why weren't you picking up your phone?" "My phone was in my bag, by the time I discovered I had missed calls, my battery had died." I could tell she was telling the truth. "I'm sorry I made you worried," she added, and I could hear the sincerity in her voice."I wasn't worried. I lied.""The dinner at my grandfather's house is tomorrow."

Ethan's POVAs I got closer to the kitchen, I could hear Emily's voice. It sounded like she was on the phone, and I stopped to listen. I could hear her talking, but I couldn't make out what she was saying. She was smiling and blushing, and it was clear that she was smitten with whoever she was talking to. It was none of my business, and she was entitled to her own life. As I entered the kitchen, Emily quickly ended her call. It was clear that she wasn't comfortable with me being around. I didn't care.She didn't say a word to me, but she seemed to be going about her business, making breakfast as if nothing had happened. I wanted to apologize for the way I had yelled at her earlier, but my pride was getting in the way. I knew I had been wrong, but I couldn't bring myself to admit it. I was at a loss for what to do.I finally mustered up the courage to speak to her. "Hey." I tried to sound nonchalant. But she didn't look up from what she was doing, and it was clear she was avoiding

Emily's POVI could tell by the look on Ethan's face that he wasn't pleased with my appearance. He was frowning, his eyes taking in my outfit with a critical eye. I felt my confidence falter, and I wondered if I had chosen the wrong outfit. But I was determined to make the best of it, even if I felt self-conscious."Umm... can we leave now?" I tried to break the awkward silence. I wanted to change the subject and move on from the uncomfortable moment. I could tell Ethan was still looking at me with a critical eye, and I was starting to feel more and more uncomfortable. I just wanted to get out of there and start the evening on a better note."Of course we can. But we'll need to make a few stops on the way."

Emily's POV"Which of these would you like?" the saleswoman asked, her smile wide and enthusiastic. I was a bit taken aback by her enthusiasm, and I didn't know what to say. I had no idea what to choose, or even how to begin. "Your fiance, Ethan, is a very handsome and wealthy man," the saleswoman said, her voice almost a whisper. "I'm sure many girls would kill to be in your shoes." I felt a knot in my stomach, not knowing how to respond to her. I didn't want to be rude, but I also didn't want to give her the wrong idea."You're really lucky," she continued. "Your boyfriend is very generous, and he has excellent taste." I felt even more embarrassed at her assumption that he was my boyfriend. I wasn't sure how to correct her, so I just remained silent."I think you should try on the navy blue dress." Her enthusiasm coming back. "It will match perfectly with your fiance's pants." I felt like I was stuck in an awkward situation, not knowing how to get out of it. I looked at her, a pu

Emily's POVI nodded at the lady, unable to muster up the energy to speak. I had a tired look on my face, and I was starting to feel exhausted. The hairstylist worked on my hair for what felt like an eternity. Finally, she was done, and I was ready to face the night ahead.I took a deep breath and stood up from the chair. I went out to where Ethan was standing, feeling nervous about his reaction. I looked at him, and I was surprised to see a look of amazement on his face. I couldn't help but blush at his reaction. It was the first time I had seen him look at me with anything other than contempt."Y-you look good." he stammered, looking a bit flustered. I couldn't help but smile at his reaction. I was feeling flattered and a bit giddy at the same time. "Thank you." I felt a little shy. I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear, feeling a bit flustered.We went to the counter, and he paid for the services. I couldn't help but feel a bit guilty at the cost. I knew he must have spent a f

Emily's POVThe other woman, who seemed to be in her early sixties, turned to Ethan and said, "Your wife is so pretty!" She hugged me, and I started to feel a bit overwhelmed by all the attention. "You guys fit perfectly together," she said with a big smile. "I can't wait for your first child!" I was taken aback by her comment, and I couldn't help but feel a bit flustered.Ethan let out an uncomfortable cough, clearly not enjoying the conversation. "Okay, Mom and Aunt, we would love to go sit down now." He tried to change the subject. "Okay, my darling," the woman who seemed to be in her late fifties said, still smiling widely. That was his mom? I was surprised - I hadn't expected her to be so sweet. She was the complete opposite of Ethan, who seemed cold and distant. I waved goodbye to them, and we headed to our seats. I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief as we sat down."I'll go get us a drink," Ethan said, his demeanor completely different from earlier. He was being a lot

I didn't know what to say to her, and I just wanted to get out of there.The silence was broken by her words, "I didn't expect Ethan to settle down for someone like you." I felt my cheeks flush with embarrassment, and I didn't know how to respond. I just sat there, feeling humiliated and small."What do you mean by 'someone like me?'" I asked her, trying to sound brave and confident. But inside, I was feeling completely insecure. I felt like I was being judged and found wanting."You know." She looked at me up and down with a disgusted look on her face. I felt like I was being appraised and found lacking. She was being so rude, and I couldn't understand why. I hadn't done anything to offend her, so why was she acting this way?Before I knew it, Liam's speech was over, and I hadn't even registered what he had said. My mind

I asked, my tone softening."There isn't," she said, her gaze drifting away from mine. Her voice was laced with a hint of tension, and I could sense that she was hiding something.I nodded, taking note of the subtle change in Emily's demeanor.

EMILY'S POV Liam's eyes darted around the space, his gaze lingering on every corner as if expecting someone to emerge from the shadows before finally settling on me to ask, "Did Ava speak harshly to you?” “No,” I replied, my voice firm so he couldn't see right through me, but unfortunately he did because I met a skeptical look on his face. “Emily,” he called, his voice gentle as always, "Are you hiding anything from me?" he added. His eyes locked on mine with an intense gaze. “I'm not.” I needed to be out of her. My body was here, but my mind and soul were with someone who cared least about me. I realized at that moment I was in love with Ethan. I had always known that, but what I just discovered was the connection between me and Liam-Lust. I didn't know how to put it. I didn't know how to tell him why I was giddy with excitement whenever he was around.

I had specifically warned Emily to keep our arrangement private, and yet, here she was, meeting with...him. I narrowed my eyes, my mind racing with possibilities. What were they discussing? And why did Emily feel the need to sneak around behind my back? I made a mental note to confront Liam about this later, my eyes never leaving the fading tail lights of his car.The anger simmered beneath my surface, a slow-burning fire that threatened to consume me. I couldn't believe she would kiss me, pretend to have feelings for me, when all along she was still entangled with Liam.

The Billionaire's Serendipitous Love Night Club
Emily's POV Ava's smile was a thin, cruel line. "Don't play dumb," she sneered. "I know all about the way Ethan looks at you now. The way he hangs on your every word."Ava's words hung in the air, her implication clear. I felt a surge of indignation, but I kept my tone level. "I don't know what you're insinuating, Ava," I said, "but I assure you, nothing is going on between Ethan and me."Ava's smile was a cold, calculated thing. "Even if there is something between you and Ethan," she said, her voice dripping with malice, "I promise you, it's coming to an end soon."Ava's gaze flicked to my ears, her eyes narrowing as she gestured to the earrings.
