CHAPTER 141

I sat on the couch in the living room with a plate of toast as I scrolled through the TV stations in search of what to watch. Shayna was in her room working, she decided to spend the day with me but first she had to work for a couple of hours with her laptop first before she could do that.She walked out of her room door stretching as she came to flop on the couch beside me, I gave her a side glance “So, are you done?” “Yup.” She says stealing a piece of toast from my plate.“Hey!” I exclaimed, flicking her arm. “I made yours, they’re in the kitchen.”She groaned, throwing her head back as she munched on the toast. “You should have said that before I sat down. Now who’s going to go all the way to the kitchen to get them?” She asks, groaning again for emphasis.“You, obviously.” She narrows her eyes at my answer before finally getting up. “So unfair.” She whines walking to the kitchen and returning with her plate of toast.“So what's the plan for today?” I asked after swallowing the

CHAPTER 142

I groggily rubbed my eyes and sat up straight, I looked towards the bed and my eyes met an empty bed. I yawned as I fumbled my fingers on the floor, searching for my phone blindly. Despite waking up less than a minute ago, I still felt very tired. Eventually, I felt the device with my hand and I picked it up, switching it on.As I wait for it to power on, I let my head rest on the edge of the bed. The first thing I noticed on the screen was the time. God! It was nearly noon. Despite knowing the time, I remained in my position with my eyelids half closed for a few minutes before jumping up to get ready.First, I take out everything I’ll be needing from my night bag before folding the comforter and placing it next to the bag. Afterward, I walked into the bathroom to begin my morning routine.After showering, I applied lotion to my skin and put on a light blue sundress. I proceeded to comb my hair and pack it in a ponytail before leaving the room. I followed the sweet sound of singing wh

CHAPTER 143

A couple of minutes later, we all sat at the dining table; Mathew was at the head of the table with Aunt Celia on his left and William on his right while I sat beside William with Ethan In front of me.I didn’t like this arrangement one bit cause I had planned on avoiding any form of eye contact with Ethan at this table but that seemed to be harder as he sat right in front of me and even kept nudging my foot.The audacity!In case it was still unclear who Ethan was, Ethan was the stranger I hadn’t put a name to, the man I had bumped into at the grocery store, In front of the hospital, close to the library, and worst of all, the one night stand I had months ago. “It smells amazing in here,” Ethan commented, doing a chef’s kiss gesture. “You definitely outdid yourself ma.” He said kissing Celia on her cheek.“That she did,” William said in agreement.“Oh stop it you two, I definitely had a lot of help from Bailey.” She replied, glancing at me with a bright smile and I returned the smil

CHAPTER 144

I sat on the bed, mindlessly scrolling through my phone. I had woken up hours ago but made no move to leave the bed and start the day. We got back quite late at night yesterday. Ethan didn’t follow us all the way to the house, he had someone pick him up at some point. I didn’t waste a second, immediately I got up to my room jumped on my bed, and drifted off to sleep. My phone pinged in my hand, displaying a message on the screen from an unknown sender. The message read; Hello Bailey.It's really creepy if you ask me. Three horizontal dots appeared indicating whoever had sent the message was typing another message.The next message read; hey It’s Ethan, meet me at this address and ask to see me. That got me to finally leave the bed. I needed to have a conversation with him, concerning yesterday. I walked into the bathroom doing my morning routine before walking into the closet to get dressed.I pull on a pair of black cargo pants and a white corset top. I matched the outfit with s

CHAPTER 145

“W..Wine, I have wine.” He suggests“Wine?” I asked confused. “You’re not helping your case at all, how is that a good point?”“I was in the process of selecting a label brand and tasting the flavors of wine that was delivered today. I know it sounds like a chore but I promise it’ll be worth your while. We could even stick to the non-alcoholic ones if you want.”Even if it sounded more like work than actually fun, I didn’t want to go back to the house spending my day in a mundane way like I do every day.“Okay fine,” I said, allowing him to take my bag. I place my hands in the pocket of my trousers as I walk behind him as he leads me to the kitchen. The first thing I noticed aside from how spacious and pristine it looked was the amount of wine bottles displayed on his kitchen island.“Wow, is this how most of your day goes? Drinking wine?” I asked, glancing at him as he reached for the top cabinet, taking an extra glass for me since there was already one on the kitchen island.“More o

CHAPTER 146

I lay on the living room couch in shorts and a cropped tank top with my legs over the armrest as I spoke to Shayna over the phone. I wish I had places to be instead of staying here all day. It’s been a week since I was over at Ethan’s and I was just telling Shayna about it. “You’re kidding,” Shayna exclaims, covering her mouth.“I swear I’m not, I was surprised too. William’s aunt, Celia, asked me to inform them that lunch was ready. She already told me her son was going to be there but never in a million years did I think it would be him.”“That’s so wild.” She comments, taking a sip from her bottle.“He even had the nerve to nudge my feet during lunch. I swear I was so rigid throughout, I just wanted the lunch to be over quickly.” I say slightly cringing as I recall that day.“This is so messy. If I were you, I swear I would have found an excuse to not be at that table.” She says rubbing the back of her neck. “I respect you for being able to sit through that Lunch.” She says laugh

CHAPTER 147

I ended up going up to my room to change to something more presentable. I didn't know what to wear since Ethan didn't tell me exactly where we were going and I still cannot believe I agreed to go with him, but can you blame me? Being alone in this massive mansion is depressing. I felt exhausted doing the same things I did over and over again…I know it seems like I wasn't going to leave with him earlier, Sue me.And also I taught never to say no to free foodI opted for something more comfortable since Ethan seemed to be dressed that way."Nice choice," Ethan says, running his eyes over my clothes; a pair of high-waisted jeans, a cropped shirt, and sneakers."Where are we going?" I asked as I locked the front door and walked behind Ethan."Somewhere, don't worry, you're going to like it." He says, throwing me a look over his shoulder."That's what all the kidnappers say to their victims," I commented looking over at him as I stood by the front passenger door.Ethan folded his hand on

CHAPTER 148

Hey, you up?; Read the text message, I glanced at the clock that read 11p.mWhy was he even asking that?It's been a week and a half since my first horse ride with Ethan, after then Ethan and I exchanged numbers and hung out a few times. He was easy going which made it easier to be friends with him. And as for William, we've grown further apart, not like we were even close to begin with. I hardly see him anymore nor do we exchange words, he now goes on a lot of business trips and for longer periods too.Presently, he was away again on another business trip, William talked, back to the message I got from Ethan. “No, leave me alone, I am still sleeping” I texted back, placing my phone on the bedside table as I got under the covers. Not up to a minute later, the sound of my ringtone slices through the silence in the room. I groaned already knowing who was calling. Maybe if I ignored it he would stop calling.I watched it as it rang, I let out a sigh of relief as it finally stopped, and

CHAPTER 149

Exiting the bathroom, I blow dry my hair first. Once dry, I pack it into a ponytail before applying lotion and pulling on a cute purple and white striped shirt and jeans.I pick up my phone texting May that we were still going to meet up as I exit the room, making my way down the stairs.Making my way to the kitchen, I place my phone face down on the counter and open the fridge in search of a bottle of apple juice. Once I find it, I close the fridge door, unscrew the bottle cap, and take a gulp, blessing my tongue with its refreshing taste.I pick my phone back up, sliding it into the back pocket of my jeans as I walk out of the kitchen, drinking from the bottle. I shrieked, nearly having a heart attack, the contents of my bottle on my shirt, hand, and floor."Are you fucking blind?" William asks, giving me an annoyed glare despite his features looking tired. I ran my eyes over his work clothes which means he just got back from his trip. I wonder if it was successful but I knew this

CHAPTER 150

"If you aren't ready in thirty minutes, I'm leaving without you," William says, forcefully slamming my room door behind him.William didn't tell me where we were going but I had prior knowledge that tonight was Ethan's birthday. He already told me a few days ago so I had enough time to get him a gift.I quickly curled my hair and slid on the light blue A-line gown. With my heels in hand, I hang my purse on my shoulder and pick up my gift as I rush to meet up with William just in case he truly decides to leave me behind.I get in the car with a few minutes to spare. I secure my seatbelts as William speeds out of the driveway to where Ethan's birthday is taking place.I slid on my heels and watched as the scenery went by. A couple of minutes later, we finally arrived at the venue which had me dropping my jaw.Ethan's birthday was taking place on a yacht. The yacht was by the dock, the bright lights on, giving it the allure of a party. William walked ahead, his face stoic as he boarded
