"What the heck is going on?" Claire asked in confusion but no one answered her.“Oh shut up! A stranger like you wouldn't understand. And besides, this is a family matter. You just arrived here yesterday and you already consider yourself a member of this family. As a stranger, you sure don't behave as such. Hmph!” Butler, John said with a snort.From the look of things, it seems he and Claire will always fight whenever they meet each other.“Oh really? Do you mean you are a Richardson too? Don't forget, you are just a mere dog for the old man. And yes, I meddle as long as it concern Ethan. Didn't forget, he's my benefactor. I can't be ungrateful to him!” Claire also spat furiously at the butler. There was no way she was going to allow this old butler to undermine her. NEVER!“You--” Butler John still wanted to say something, but Ethan yelled coldly…“ENOUGH!!!” With his authoritative tone, everyone became silent.Ethan closed his eyes tightly for s few seconds before he opened them to
After their breakfast, Ethan left to meet those who he had an appointment with, whilst Claire and Jessica went to the house garden. Jeffrey, on the other hand, went to his room to study. He's always fighting and studying hard to get first place. He can't afford to fail in his academics. Old Master Richardson would definitely use that as an excuse to punish Ethan instead of him.Thus, Jeffrey had to study twice his average. Moreover, it is his greatest dream to help his brother at the company after he completes University. Since Claire came into the house at night, she wasn't able to check the house out. So, after having their breakfast, she asked Jessica to show her around the house, which the latter gladly did.After touring the big house for almost an hour, Claire felt tired and returned to her room to take a nap.Just as she was about to close her eyes, she saw Jessica peaked her head through her door.“Jess…?” Claire called her out.“Hey, do you mind if I take a nap with you?”
Several alarmed questions ran through her head at that moment. However, something entirely different happened. Ethan opened his eyes after some time and stared coldly at the girl in front of him. He wondered if she might have done it on purpose.Though he knew very well that it was unintentional. However, he still couldn't understand why she would suddenly spit on him out of nowhere. Did he do something wrong to her? 'This girl really has some guts' he thought.“I'm so sorry, Ethan. I didn't mean to. I'm genuinely sorry. Actually, it wasn't my fault. Mia said something stupid which made me…" She paused and looked at Jeffrey before she continued.“I was thinking about something funny. I'm genuinely sorry. I didn't mean to spit my water on you. It was unintentional.” Claire said and hurriedly went to her bedside and picked up many tissues and rushed back to wipe Ethan's face and clothes. Ethan then understood something. Mia might have said something to her which made her spat the water
The day went by in a blink of an eye and it was already Sunday evening. Jessica and Jeffrey were on high alert with every movement because of the hell they were about to go in.Ethan had his cold and poker face on as usual. He kept looking at his watch from time to time impatiently as he waited downstairs. “Jess, when do you think she would be ready? We've been waiting for her for almost an hour now. I think brother might explode any moment from now if she doesn't come out.” Jeffrey whispered into Jessica's ear but was loud enough for Ethan to hear.“I don't know what's taking her so long. She's supposed to be done by now. Let me go and check on her.” Jessica whispered back and was about to go and call Claire when Butler John appeared in front of them.“You are still here? Why? I thought you would have gone by now. I'm even on my way.” He said and looked at the three siblings inquisitive as if he was their father. Ethan glared coldly at him but didn't say anything. He checked his wa
“Brother, please don't be angry with her. She - she was just hurt by your words earlier. Please, I'm begging you not to send her away.” Jessica held Ethan's hands and begged profusely. She was scared that his brother would either hurt Claire physically or chase her out of their house.In the past few days that Claire stayed with them, she had grown so much attached to her like a sister. She didn't want to lose her.“Brother, please forgive her. Give her one chance. I agree with Jessica. I don't think Claire meant what she did.” Jeffrey also apologized to her.“Don't apologize for my sake! He can throw me out as far as I care. I'm sick and tired of allowing people to bully me because I depend on them.” Claire shouted as her tears finally fall down her face.Ethan nearly touched his chest because of the pain he was feeling. Why was he feeling that way? The time he felt that way was the times he saw his grandfather beating his mother. And also the day Angel exchanged her life for his. T
After going to his room, Ethan ran his hands through his hair several times in frustration.He was confused. He didn't know what came over. Why did he hug her? For what reason?He could have just consoled her from a distance, right? So, what was that hug for? Why did he suddenly see her as his Angel and hugged her?Most importantly, his ice-cold heart started beating fast as hell.He felt uncomfortable when the scent of her hair entered his nostril. He hated the fact that he enjoyed her scent and her soft body in his arms.It felt like he was hugging his long-lost love. “What the fuck is wrong with me?” He questioned himself in frustration. However, before he could continue with his crazy emotions, his phone started ringing. Upon checking the screen, he saw that it was his father calling. Ethan didn't glance at it for another second, then rejected it. He was aware that his grandfather might be fuming in rage by now.He then went into his closet and picked up a new set of suits and w
Everyone at the dining table, including Old Master Richardson and all the family around, were stunned at what they were seeing.'Who the hell is this girl? Why was George hugging her?' That was the same question going on inside everyone's head.Claire and George's hug caught everyone off guard. Their gesture made the rest wonder if they'd known each other for a long time.Ethan and his siblings, together with Chase, were also a little taken aback. Claire and George gave them the vibe of siblings which sounded ridiculous in their ears.When George's parents saw the girl their son was hugging, all the color drained from their faces.Tears gathered in their eyes as if they were looking at their long-lost daughter. They wanted badly to go to her and asked her several questions. Even though they knew their reaction may seem stupid to others.However, when they saw the angry face of Old Master Richardson, they immediately stayed put in their seats.Though they are not Richardson, the old man
Everyone looked at Ethan in shock. Since when did he have the balls to speak to his grandfather like that?“Ethan! What has come over you? You are never like this before. What happened to you all of a sudden? Why have you changed?” Dylan, Ethan's cousin, said, feeling perplexed. “Brother, did that chick ask you to do this? The elders are talking about your marriage to Barbara. Why can't you show some respect to the--” Aaron, Ethan's annoying step-brother was talking when all of a sudden, a plate was thrown at him?All eyes went wide as they looked at Ethan in shock. Did he just injure his brother for the sake of a girl?“ETHAN RICHARDSON! HOW DARE YOU HURT MY SON!!!” Rachael shouted angrily at her stepson.“Advice your son never to address me as his brother ever again. I have only two siblings and that's Jeffrey and Jessica. Let today be his last time if addressing me that!” Ethan said calmly but coldly as he sat in his seat nonchalantly. “You-- you!!!” Old Master Richardson's body w
But Ethan was gentle, soothing her with soft words and caresses. "I'm sorry, love. Trust me, you'll love it. Just hold on for a while." He waited patiently, allowing her to adjust to his junior before beginning a slow, passionate rhythm. As she relaxed, he increased the pace, his thrusts becoming more urgent, more wild. Claire's moans and screams filled the room, her body bouncing on the mattress in time with his movements. Their bodies moved in perfect harmony. Ethan lifted her leg to his shoulder to deepen their connection. He kissed her leg with fervor as if every inch of her skin was meant to be worshipped by him. As he began to move rapidly, her legs wrapped tightly around his waist, his hands fondling her breasts while his lips devoured hers, leaving them tender and swollen. The intensity of their passion was palpable. In a swift motion, he lifted her legs onto his shoulders, expertly stimulating her G-spot, sending waves of pleasure through her body. Next, he pulled
As Ethan's hands roamed her body, Claire's resolve began to crumble, and she couldn't help but moan in response to his tantalizing touch. His smirk grew wider as he whispered, "That's good. Keep on doing that!" He lavished attention on her belly button, sucking and kissing it, sending shivers down her spine. His gentle bites and soft kisses on her thigh left her feeling like she was burning with desire, craving more of his caresses. She clenched the bedsheet tightly and arched her back. This was the first time she was experiencing something like that, so the feelings were too much for her to handle. With a flirtatious tug, Ethan teased her by pulling down her lace panties, making Claire's face flush with embarrassment and shyness. She instinctively closed her legs, but he gently coaxed them apart, reveling in the breathtaking view before him. Both of them couldn't believe they were actually going to do the deed. The strange thing is that it felt normal to them as if they were
Ethan and Claire continued devouring each other's lips as they forgot everything and everyone except themselves. Ethan's passion for Claire was so immense that he was barely holding on to the little sanity in him in other not to snap and take her now and then. Sensing that Claire was out of breath, Ethan broke their kiss and gave her the chance to take in oxygen into her lungs. His hand softly caressed her face. Looking at her red slightly swollen lips, Ethan forgot all logic and made a decision. He won't let Claire go with just a kiss. He wanted her and looked at how Claire was also looking at him, Ethan she might have also come to the same conclusion. Ethan's piercing gaze held Claire captive, his passion and charm rendering her helpless. As he tenderly stroked her hair, his warm breath whispered in her ear, "May I?" The gentle nip on her earlobe sent shivers down her spine, and she couldn't suppress a soft moan. The sound of her pleasure only fueled Ethan's desire, and
"Have you forgotten what you did earlier? I just wanted to check your temperature, but you grabbed my hand and refused to let go. I had no choice but to share my bed with you. Not only that, but immediately you felt me on the bed. You climbed on top of me and hugged me as if your life depended on it. And now, you are asking? Claire, since when did you become shameless?" Ethan teased her. Clara was mortified, even though having no recollection of what had transpired. But Ethan told her about hugging his hand and even wrapping her arms around his waist while he was trying to sleep. That thought alone made her red with embarrassment. As if that wasn't enough, Ethan went on and said many things that actually didn't happen while laughing at her red face. "Stoooooopppppp!!! Please stop!" Claire begged him to stop, but Ethan's laughter was infectious, and he couldn't help but continue. Eventually, he composed himself, and Claire shot him an angry glance, though her embarrassm
As Ethan basked in a pleasant dream, he was abruptly jolted awake by the distressed cries of someone nearby. He sat up in bed, scanning the room for an intruder, only to realize that the hand grasping his was visibly trembling. He soon noticed Claire thrashing about, caught in the grip of what seemed like a nightmare. Ethan immediately tried to rouse her, calling out her name repeatedly, but she remained entranced. Tears streamed down her face as beads of sweat trickled from her forehead. Ethan attempted to shake off her absorption, to no avail. So, he gently lifted her onto his lap, cradling her in a tight embrace, hoping that it would soothe her. As Claire's body relaxed against the warmth of his chest, her agitation gradually subsided like the work of a magician, making her body went limb on his lap. Ethan softly whispered reassurances, trying to calm her down. He stroked her hair, his fingers weaving through her locks in a soothing motion that helped calm her nerves
The air inside Ethan's car was thick with tension as he sped down the road, his foot heavy on the accelerator. His urgency to get home stemmed from his desire to have Chase examine Claire, who was in a bad state. Beats of sweat formed on her forehead, and her face looked pale. The rain had subsided, leaving behind a gentle drizzle, but Claire still shivered despite the car heater's warmth. Her face had lost its color, and her sleep was fitful, punctuated by murmurs of Ethan's name. Ethan's voice, laced with concern, broke the silence. "Claire, are you okay?" He asked, his usual detachment replaced by a mix of emotions. Claire's response was a faint whisper, "Cold... It's so cold..." Ethan didn't hesitate, pulling over on the left side of the road and rushing to her side to unbuckle her seatbelt. He then gently lifted her into his lap, where she instinctively wrapped her arms around him, seeking warmth and comfort from his body. As Claire's body relaxed against his, Ethan f
"E- Ethan!" She called out weakly, tears streaming down her cheeks. She was overwhelmed with a mix of emotions – anger, relief, grief, and more."Let's go home. Jessica and Jeffrey are waiting for you. Chase is also there. He will take care of you, alright?" Ethan said softly, comforting Claire with his words. He felt so remorseful looking at her pale face.However, Claire reluctantly extricated herself from his grasp. She was still seething with anger towards him."I have no desire to go to your house! You banished me, did you not? What if I accompany you and you disown me once more for any trivial misstep? Will I become your plaything then? To be discarded whenever you see fit, only to be retrieved when it suits your fancy? No, thank you!" Claire retorted and attempted to walk away.Despite her state, she still didn't want to be a burdens for others. If leaving everyone will bring peace not only to herself but also to the people around her, then so be it. No one really wanted her any
"Then what are you waiting for? Take her to the hospital! Do you want her to die?" Old Madam Wilson exclaimed, shocking everyone present.Was she genuinely concerned for Claire's well-being? No, that couldn't be. Their conversation earlier in the day flashed through their minds.Indeed, the old woman was cunning. She still harbored the desire to use Claire to gain favor with the Richardson family.Kelvin felt disgusted by his grandmother's behavior, but he remained silent. For now, his focus should be solely on Claire. He would have to confront his grandmother later on.After a while, Claire started coughing, drawing everyone's attention back to her."Little one, how are you feeling?" Kelvin asked with genuine concern. "Mom, Claire's awake!" He called for his mother, who rushed out of the kitchen with a hot bowl of soup in her hands."Oh, my child! How are you feeling? What happened to you?" Mrs. Wilson bombarded Claire with questions, her tear-stained face revealing her worry.Claire
Claire remained rooted in place, her body trembling uncontrollably. Her mind raced, attempting to make sense of the situation. Who was this Angel? And why was someone looking for her?Thoughts and emotions coursed through Claire's body, causing violent shocks that seemed to pull her out of the dimension she was in. She turned to where the mysterious boy had been hiding, hoping to catch a glimpse of his face. But he was nowhere to be seen. In the blink of an eye, Claire was back in the reality of lying on the side of the road.As she opened her eyes, Claire noticed the murky water surrounding her, but she paid no attention. Her mind was consumed with trying to make sense of what had just happened.Where was she? If she's still lying in the rain on the roadside, where was that thick forest she saw? Was that a vision or a dream?And then it hit her like a bolt of lightning making her gasped in disbelief. "W-was that my memory?" She whispered, fear creeping into her heart.But that can't b
