All Chapters of Falling for the Billionaire: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Ethan’s POV“Do you think he’s doing alright?” Skylar looked over at me in worry.We were right now heading towards our house in LA. We flew as soon as we could since that’s what we thought would be the best. Skylar was worried about Ben, who was apparently hit by a car in my story.I was mentally wishing for her anger to be in minimal amounts so that I didn’t have to struggle a lot.“You know you don’t have to worry so much about him.” I said, “He’s just met with an accident-”She turned around to give me a startled look. “I can’t believe you’re jealous over this. He is your best friend, Ethan. At least pretend that you care about him.”“I’m not jealous about you worrying over him, Skylar,” I said. “I’m saying that you’re worrying over nothing.”“He met with an accident, how can that keep me calm?” Skylar said.“Actually, there’s something I need to tell you.” I said, looking at her hesitantly.“Can it wait?”“I’m afraid it can’t,” I said.She sighed. “Okay, what is it?”“I lied to y

“That was amazing!”My voice resonated in the air as I spoke excitedly into the mic. The reporter before me had a sly grin on her face.“Tell me about your honeymoon, Skylar. It looked like you had good fun.” She smiled as she spoke and I was obliged to reciprocate.Zac was watching me over the throng of people, widening his eyes, trying to convey something to me. I ignored him and responded to her.“That’s because it’s so true.” I chuckled. “I’ve always loved going to London. It’s one of my favorite places. I totally love my husband for taking me there.”Zac facepalmed and I could see that he was inwardly groaning. He gestured me not to do anything stupid but I could just do so much as frown at him. We were done partying and just came out to have a bunch of reporters ready to bombard me with questions. Zac came later so he was still not their target yet.As soon as they saw me, they started asking me questions. I answered most of them but Zac kept glaring at me. I didn’t get why he w

“Switch the damn thing off!"I groaned into the pillow and threw it over my ears. Just then, I heard a chuckle from beside me.My ears quirked up when I heard my own voice playing on a speaker. I twisted my body and turned around, squinting my eyes open.Ethan was sitting with his back resting against the head board, with a laptop on his thighs. He was sipping on the coffee whilst watching some interviews on the screen.My eyes widened when I saw my own face appear on the screen. It was the interview that I gave yesterday.“Tell me about your honeymoon, Skylar. It looked like you had good fun.”“That’s because it’s so true.” I chuckled. “I’ve always loved going to London. It’s one of my favorite places. I totally love my husband for taking me there."I shut the screen instantly and pulled the laptop away. Ethan looked at me with mirth glistening in his eyes.“If I had known you’d fall back in love with me if I took you to London, then I would have done it long ago, sweetheart.”I glar

“How would you do that?” I asked him.“Well,” he snapped the sleeve of the dress with his fingers. “The dress will have to come off first since you’re clearly being disrespectful to the owner of this dress.”“I thought I own it from now on.”“You do, you bought it from me.” He said. “Well, technically, you didn’t.”I gave him a surprised look and looked around. “This is your store?”He nodded. “Yes.”“Wow.” I smile. “I love the stuff here.”His face softened. “You can always come back here and take whatever you want.”I gave him a teasing look. “Why are you being this good to me? I thought you were threatening me just a few seconds ago?”“Do you want to talk dirty with you again?” He asked, his eyes hooded.“No no. I’m fine.” I chuckled. “I should take advantage of you while you’re still being a human.”He nodded. “So, did you decide yet? Do you want this dress on or off your body?”I smirked at him. “I think Ben will kill both of us if we don’t show up. So I guess I need to have this

“What’s the matter with you, Ethan? Why are you acting like this?”“Like what?” He asked, ignoring my comment and unbuttoning his shirt to change.“You... I don’t know. You seemed distant.” I said, clutching my hair in frustration.“We were never close in the first place.” He said and threw his shirt away. He went into his closet and came back with just one towel around his waist.“Ethan, you’re ignoring me.” I accused him.He gave me a tired look. “I’m exhausted, Skylar. I just want to shower and go to bed. Please let me take some rest. I have a long day tomorrow.”I stared at him for a few seconds before giving up. He sighed and walked into the washroom, closing the door with his feet. I shook my head and changed out of my clothes. My eyes lingered on that tattoo of his name on my back which I had when I was in high school. Although I had every reason to remove it, I couldn’t get myself to do it in these years.My make up artist did a great job at concealing them all these years whe
