Ava could not stop grinning hard as she stood in front of the mirror, to look at the beautiful dress that Ethan had sent to her. To make her even more pleased and glad, it was one of their company's limited edition dresses that sold for an expensive price. Though it was her masterpiece, her heart was filled with joy that he did that for her. The heels he sent with the dress were a limited edition from a brand that was unknown to her, and with the looks of it, she knew it was going to cost a lot. The jewelry that came with the clothes made her gasp in surprise, when she realized how much each of the pairs was worth. He had spent so much time making sure that she was ready for the dinner, which continually had her wondering what he was planning to do. For the kids, someone was staying with them for the few hours Ava and Ethan were going to spend by themselves before returning home; Jesse. The poor assistant was so stressed already! He had never taken care of children before, and wa
"Dear me. You are SG?" Jordyn asked in surprise, with anyone barely left in the room after every of the executives that attended the meeting had gone already. "Yes, I am," Jace answered modestly. Simone stormed out with great fury alongside her allies, because she didn't expect things to turn out the way they did, at the last moment when she was already celebrating her victory and was so sure that she had won. The executives who all supported her too were put to shame, as they all stalked out with great disappointment amidst their muttering. "I am so surprised. I didn't expect that the tables would just turn unexpectedly at the last moment. I lost hope already," She expressed honestly with a straight but grateful face, still finding it hard to believe that her position was not taken from her. Jace's shares which were worth 5% of the company voted in support of her, and the tables turned to everyone's shock immediately. They never expected that he would come. He barely attended any
The following days had been so great for Ava, while following what her heart wanted without thinking twice. She was having the best time loving Ethan freely without allowing anything to get in the way, and it had constantly been a mood booster for her. With Beatrice still recuperating from her illness, it was left for both Ava and Ethan to take care of their children amidst their busy schedules at their companies. Jesse had to direct the chauffeur who would drive them to school and bring them back, while Ethan left work earlier than usual to be around to receive them back from school till Ava would come back.She had been so busy with her company job coupled with meetings, interviews, events, and other personal company stuff, and it left Ethan as the one to do the most work with the kids. But, he loved doing everything that he was doing because he liked his new way of living. It was fun waking up next to Ava every morning, like it had been their life forever. Due to her cumbersome
Ava was slouched in her chair at the office, busy with numerous files that she had to go through for a final evaluation, feeling so exhausted already from working nonstop since the day began. She was trying hard to clear her schedules for the week in a few days, so that she would be able to spend the rest of the days with Ethan and the kids. Often, she would chuckle at the random memories that popped into her mind, which were vividly painted on the canvas of her and Ethan's new love story. She had been glowing so radiantly to the notice of Cassey who commented on her bright mood to everyone, and it created a moment of joke between the both of them to laugh. She was rounding off her work for the day with the anticipation of returning home as fast as possible to meet Ethan, when her other phone which was always inside her bag rang. Hastily, she picked it up with a great expectation that it was Ethan calling, but was quickly disappointed when she realized that it was not him and almost
Ava's mind was conscious even if her eyes seemed to be tightly closed, and she could sense the scent of some kind of weird incense hanging in the air, assaulting her senses. Her eyes suddenly flickered awake like some sort of emergency as a tensed gasp escaped her lips, and a world of confusion and disorientation greeted her the moment she opened her eyes. She found herself in a dimly lit, unfamiliar place, with a weak light barely penetrating the room, as a dull throbbing pain pulsed through her head which made her close her eyes instantly to tend to the pain. Her hand wanted to raise to touch her temples for comfort, and intense panic welled up within her immediately as her memory tried to make sense of her situation. 'What was happening? Why was her hand tied? Where was she?' her heart trembled in sudden fear, when she realized that there was no way that she could move her body. Her green-blue eyes which were wide with a mix of fear and confusion darted around the room while see
Ethan became agitated after he read Ava's message, and tried to call her repeatedly with fury that she was meeting a despicable man like him. Dali tried to calm him down when his anxiety started picking pace because Ava was not answering his calls, and advised that they let her have her time to settle whatever she wanted to with Jace. However, Ethan knew that he could never trust Ava to be around him in any way, which made him even more troubled as time passed. He was not able to take it anymore after a few more minutes had gone, still unable to reach her, and tried to check for her location on the tracker that he had installed on her phone. Quickly, without wasting any more time, he and Dali set out to drive to the restaurant her phone's location was pointing at. He alighted the car together with her and strode angrily into the restaurant with the intention of carrying Ava out on his shoulder, the moment he caught the sight of her and Jace talking. But, the situation was not as it
Ava could not even look at her face in the mirror that was placed in the room that she was forced to enter, with her head bowed so low in deep sadness because of the evil that was about to befall her. She had cried so much that her eyes were so puffy and red already, because it looked like there was no hope for her again. She was wearing the pathetic white dress that she was threatened would be worn for her if she didn't do it herself, and it was meant for the supposed wedding that Jace said she would be doing with him. Every accessory that was provided to her was of great luxury, and she hated it so much that such expensive clothes and shoes brought her sadness. She barely slept the entire night in the beautiful room that she was instructed to stay in because of the fear that something might happen to her, and could not eat the food that was bought for her as dinner by one of his men fearing that it might be poisoned. They locked the door behind her all night, and the windows in th
Ethan had been feeling so distraught by the turn of events that was playing in his life, and every fiber of his body was in high-stress tension because of what he read from Jordyn's timed email. It was almost two days already, and everyone was put in a total rush of actions to be taken for things to be sorted out. Search teams had been going out doing their jobs as well as the others, but it had not been easy because they could not put out an order that Ava was missing because of Ethan's refusal. However, it was all over the press and news already that Jace Scott was wanted for many illegal things. With partnership with more investigators from Germany's FBI agents, they had out a search for Jordyn too because it seemed like Dali's guess was truly right at the end of everything. There were also thorough investigations going on in every one of Jace's companies, as well as full information on his past and how he was able to take another man's identity for years.
