Chapter 121

Annelise's POV Ethan looked at me with a shocked expression on his face, as though I just grew two extra heads. I glared at him really hard, my teeth were grinding so hard that I was scared that it'd break at this moment.He opened the door from the driver's seat without even standing up and I was out before he could say ‘jack'. I ran out of the car and started looking at the parking lot wildly for Esther.I needed to know if she was still here, I needed her, I needed to talk to someone or I'd go crazy!I saw her car still in the same place we parked it before we went in and I ran towards it, it was almost like I flew towards the car because of how quickly I got there.I opened the car and got into the passenger's seat with my chest heaving up and down. My heart was hurting so much as though a sledge hammer has been used on it.“Hey, hey, hey, what happened?” I heard Esther say above my head."It's okay, you're okay. Everything is okay.” She said to me calmly. I just sighed and looke

Chapter 122

Annelise's POV “There's still more in the pot if you want it." I was already in the kitchen and taking more before she could finish those words.My appetite today is just so horrendous. I wasn't able to keep down anything yesterday yet I felt like I could consume a whole mountain today with how hungry I was.I finished the plate too in no time and topped it with another bottle of water. I'm definitely going to visit the toilet a thousand times before it's morning.“Are you satisfied now? We can still order pizza if you want.” Esther asked me as we both sat down on the couch after we both did the dishes.“I'm okay, thanks for asking." I smiled at her. There's no space for any other thing in my stomach though I was craving a lot of things.I turned my head to the random show that was playing on the television. This is just that kind of time where the television is just playing on to serve as a background noise, my mind wasn't even there.It's somewhere far away from here, a future wher

Chapter 123

Annelise's POV I got the deal signed in no time, I was really excited to have gotten it. That man is one of the major people in the art industry and I just managed to get it so easily.He had said my arts were too exquisite to be ignored or not elevated to a proper level. He's like a distributor and he'd help in getting the clients while I just do the painting.I dialed Esther when I was done and waiting for my cab outside the cafe I met with the man.She picked the call on the second ring, “Hey love, how did it go?"“I got the deal!" I said immediately out of excitement.“I knew you were going to get it, you're so f*cking good and competent that anyone would want to work with you!” She replied. "Thanks for the compliment, flattery has always been your thing so I'm not surprised.” I mumbled.A figure suddenly appeared before me, a stifled gasp escaped my mouth that I had to hang up on Esther before she could finish talking.“I wasn't even flatt-" “I'll talk to you later, Esther." I

Chapter 124

Annelise's POV I should have known that the company being at its lowest and my father's perception of it being my fault automatically means he'd stop her treatment!I tried calling him several times and he didn't even pick the calls till I got so mad and frustrated and could only wish that the car could fly.Going home would mean absolutely nothing, going to my former house was also as useless as anything because there's no way my father would be there at this moment. This pent up frustration and anger in me was begging to be unleashed on someone, just anyone at all.“We're here." The driver's voice was what made me open the door, even though i was looking outside the car. I opened up and ran out of the car, paying the cab man.This isn't even the time to conceal any emotion or act like I've been acting when in the midst of people I'm sure knows me. I ran into the building without waiting at the reception.The receptionist either was incompetent or saw my face before I ran into the

Chapter 125

Ethan's POV I wanted to tell her to come back, to tell her that I was sorry, that I couldn't even remember what happened that night, my brain is still really blank.Or to tell her that she should give me more time to investigate it. She left the office, banging the door hard behind her.I ran my hands through my hair in frustration, yelling out in anger. I turned to the nearest wall and let out the pent up anger and frustration there.Hitting the wall didn't give me what I wanted as the wall was soundproof and was foamy, instead of a solid, hard wall that I needed.“Ahhhhh!" I yelled out in more frustration, hitting the hard wood table behind me with my legs.The pain that came from the impact wasn't enough at all, i wanted real pain, something that'd just make me this pent up anger away from my veins.How have I been so stupid to have not seen the signs and all? She suddenly moved away from the house after Ken talked about the car accident.But the again, I thought it was because sh

Chapter 126

Ethan's POV I ran out of my car with a full speed after abruptly stopping my car and stopping the engine. Max had the driver kneeling on the ground already with his hands to the back with something I didn't know and don't want to know.Annelise was behind him with her arms wrapped around herself. She was still dressed in the two piece from earlier, of course, she didn't go home yet.“Boss." Max said when I got to them.Annelise snapped her head to look into my eyes, and for that one moment, I wished I hadn't come with the hatred displayed on her face towards me.“You said he wasn't the one who sent you!” She screamed at Max.She stepped away from him and went to stand close to the same person that wanted to kidnap her."Ma'am, you can't be so close to him, he's dangerous.” Max said to her."I'd rather he kidnap me than stand close to HIM right now." She replied him, gesturing at me."Max, take her to where she was going. I'll handle him.” I ordered Max.I didn't want to look into he

Chapter 127

Ethan's POV “It's your wife." He confirmed my thoughts. The car stopped on its own this time as I stopped navigating it.“What are you talking about?! Didn't I tell you to guard her with your darn life! Where are you? F*ck! Where is she?" I yelled.“I just brought her to the city hospital."The hospital was on the same lane I was on, I just continued driving, this time without any interruption or sudden stops.The only thing on my mind was getting to her first. I drove into the hospital in no time and threw the keys at the valet. I ran into the hospital with speed. “Annelise Harrington." I said to the nurse I met at the lobby. She looked up at me and instead of looking at the book before her like she wanted to, but she just gasped and looked at my face like she just saw a ghost. “Are you going to keep staring at my face or you're going to talk?!”She jolted upright and muttered some incoherent words before going over the book with a shaking hands.“She was brought in minutes ago an

Chapter 128

Annelise's POV I groaned as a wave of nausea hit me. I've been finding it kind of hard to get out of this darn bed in the first place. I just had to push myself up to open the door I was seeing that I presumed to be a bathroom and it ended up being true.I emptied everything in my stomach which happened to be just water into the toilet. When I was done, I almost couldn't stand on my own.Leaning on the toilet’s wall, I tried to catch my breathe as it looked like I was going to lose consciousness anytime soon again.I walked back into the room panting for air as though I just ran a marathon. I laid down back on the bed and almost sighed in relief at how good it felt to rest my back again.The oxygen mask was removed from my nose earlier this morning, I've been really awake since then. I wasn't feeling any more pain, the only place I'm feeling pain was in my stomach and that was because of hunger.Aren't they going to serve breakfast this morning? Now that I think of it, the last thing

Chapter 129

Annelise's POV I didn't realize that a gasp had escaped me till Esther rushed to my side, she looked into the phone to check what made me gasp that loud.The content of the message was even worse, it wasn't what I expected to see. Ethan's picture was pasted largely on one side of the news.'Popular young businessman, Ethan Harrington, the CEO of The Harringtons holdings has been exposed after a business he has been covering for years now was dug out, he was conversing with one of his clients hours ago when he let out a loophole.This seems to have been going on for years, according to what was said in the conversation, click below to watch the clip.'With shaky hands, I pressed ‘play’ on the video after the link directed me to a page.The voice that came on first was definitely Ethan's, only that it didn't sound like him on a second thought after I listened with rapt attention.Ethan's voice isn't as rough as this. The video was almost pitch black, the only thing that could be seen w

Chapter 130

Annelise's POV “Go on a date with me to find out.”I stared at him like he was just joking so I let out a dry laugh before a normal look came up on my face.“Haha! So funny." I laughed dryly. Ken looked serious, he waited for me to finish laughing before he talked again.“I'm not joking, Annelise.""You say you want me to go on a date with you and it isn't a joke?” I scoffed.“I really want you to go on a date with me." He repeated, trying to move closer to me. I moved back from him, holding a hand up to create space between us.“You don't know what you're talking about, Ken. What do you mean by you want to go on a date with me? A date isn't some random dinner or lunch.” I scoffed once more."I know what a date means, Annelise." He sighed and ran his hand through his hair.“We can't go on a date, Ken. That's insane." I told him."Please, Annelise. I promise it's not going to take much of your time, I need this please.” He pleaded.That was when I knew that he wasn't joking at all, th
