CHLOE. I still found it hard to understand why Ethan had thought so low of me. Did I seem like the kind of girl who would go back to the same man who ruined her life? He believed that I would give the designs we both created to that bastard. I didn't know how he was able to gather this useless evidence but I expected him to think more of me. We had stayed together for some while, he should know me now. But then he chased me out of his house like I meant nothing to him. I felt humiliated, his gaze haunting. I sat on the edge of the hotel bed, the dim city lights outside casting a cold glow through the window. I could hear the faint hum of traffic in the distance, but inside, all I could hear was the pounding of my own heart. My hands moved instinctively to my stomach, the baby still so small inside me. I could feel the gentle rise and fall with each breath I took, and yet, somehow, it didn’t bring me any peace tonight. The baby was the only thing that felt real at this point. I tho

ETHAN. I stood at the door, about to step inside, when Granny's voice stopped me. "Ethan, your food is ready. Come and eat.” She said, her tone soft but insistent. I shook my head negatively, my mind already elsewhere. I was about to slip into the quiet of my room, but Granny had this way of pulling me back, even when I didn’t feel like listening to her. I had no choice but to stay when she asked if she could speak to me. And this was when I noticed she was wearing a dress I had gotten her from Spain. It was a red regalia which covered most part of her body. She wore a shirt underneath, I could see the collar peeking out from the gown. She stared at me intently, a way to pull my attention. Dressed this way I couldn't help but think about how hard she was getting. Grandma was one day going to leave me behind. I would be alone with no one to ask to speak to me or bother me if I had eaten. Well, I wasn't hungry hence I couldn't force myself but then I could speak to her. I knew what

CHLOE. Leaving Ethan's house that day broke something inside of me. I felt a weight settle deep in my chest with a burning sensation. I wanted to break down, to scream and cry, but I couldn’t. Not in front of Ethan’s house or in the cab. He made his choice and that wasn't my fault. Why should I tear up? Perhaps this was Karma and I was going to accept my fate and move on. It wasn't easy, I could feel heaviness settling deep within me but it didn't mean that I wouldn't do it. My father was still locked away, and I couldn’t afford to fall apart. My taught me how to be strong for a day like this. I lost her seven days ago and now I was carrying the baby of a man who was going to get married to someone else. I had never thought that my life was going to turn out like this. That I would be carrying a child without a father. There was so much to fix. The baby was someone to live for. I wouldn't give up easily because I knew what it felt like to have a mother who didn't fight. For the Chi

Ethan’s POVIt had been five months since I sent Chloe away. Five months of missing her, five months of lying to myself, pretending that I didn’t care, that everything was fine without her. But deep down, I knew the truth. I missed her. I missed her in a way that gnawed at me, in a way that left me hollow. Every day, I woke up hoping I was just dreaming—that somehow, she’d be standing there beside me, smiling at me the way she used to. But she wasn’t. She was gone.I sent her away. She did wrong yet I felt guilty that I had sent her away. I didn't find out if it was true before sending her away. I just wanted her gone. I was scared. No, I wasn't someone to be scared, never. But then when it came to her I was a different person. I walked into her room, my eyes scanning everywhere as I stepped in. It still had her Christian Dior fragrance. Yeah, the fragrance was quite powerful, and since no one came here or opened the door, it didn't go off. Her room was just the way she left it. Nea

Chloe’s POVI was busy attending to customers in the museum, trying my best to focus on the task at hand. It had been a hectic morning with visitors streaming in, and my mind had been all over the place all morning. I had just finished explaining the significance of an ancient artifact to some of the visitors when I caught sight of someone familiar.I froze for a moment, staring in surprise. It was the guy I had met on the plane a few weeks ago—the one who had been so casual with me. I hadn’t expected to see him again after that day at the airport as I had ignored him. But then, he had been coming to see me in the museum where I worked. He spotted me almost immediately and walked over, giving me a polite smile.“Need any help?” he asked, his voice calm and smooth like he always knew exactly what to say.“Oh, um, no, I’m fine. Thanks,” I said, trying to maintain my composure. But it was hard to ignore how his presence seemed to make everything feel just a little bit more complicated.

Ethan’s POVI left the office early hoping to work from home. I just didn't want to be involved with all the noises that go on in the office. My mind was already a noisy place and I didn't need them to add to what was going on in my head. There was no one in the living room when I got into the house hence I headed for my room. Matilda had moved to the room next to mine, I didn't allow her to move into Chloe’s room for only God knows what reason hence she decided to move into the one on the other side. I didn't mind. This time, I heard her talking as her door was slightly opened. But I wouldn't have cared if she didn't mention Chloe’s name. Hence I waited in front of her room and listened to her conversation with her friend. Every word that left her mouth took me by surprise. Damn it. Everything was done by Matilda? I was shocked. But then a part of me was not surprised because I kind of knew what Chloe could do. A part of me was sure that she didn't do that. She was a woman of pride

ETHAN. Suddenly, I flung my lids open and realized that I was in a strange room. It was more of an abandoned room. As though it was once a warehouse that had been abandoned. My eyes darted around, trying to find anything that would explain what was happening. Then two men walked into the room. They were both huge like bodyguards. I watched as they headed toward me. I was seated on the dusty and dirty floor, my suit all stained. I didn't care. I had many and losing one wouldn't affect me. But then these men looked tedious. “What is going on here?” I asked watching them as they walked closer to me. They both had mean expressions on their faces. Have I been kidnapped? I wondered staring at them. "Nothing except you need to die.” He stated. I chuckled. The statement he made was so random, it made me laugh. “What is funny?” He glared at me. I ran my hand in my hair. “Listen, I get it, you need money. How much do you want? Do you want my phone with me?” I asked, pinballing

ETHAN. The men who came in defended me. They did all of their best in fighting until the guys who wanted to attack me were defeated. I didn't know these guys. I didn't know who they were and I had never seen them in my life.They walked over to me after they were done defending me. “You will come with us now,” one of them said. Come with them? I didn't even know them. Moreover, they spoke to me with so much pride which I hated. “How could I trust you?” I asked. In a real sense, they had defended me and been on my side. If they wanted to harm me, they would have defended me from these men. “We are sorry that we appear as people you cannot trust but you really need to come with us. He needs to see you.” They were dressed in cooperate wear and looked responsible. Anyone would trust them except me. But then, I needed to go and see the one they spoke about. They drove me to a hospital. A VIP suite, no less. I tried to prepare myself for what was to come, but nothing could have prepared

EthanMy heart pounded crazily in my chest. Each second that passed only made my heart beat in my chest like crazy. This didn't seem like something I could survive. The guilt that rested upon me, didn't seem like something that I could survive. I had blamed Chloe a lot. I had made her suffer. Blamed her. She came and asked for forgiveness and then I told her to go and die. I told her death was going to make everything better. Entering the hospital, my heart pounded against my chest. I wasn’t sure if it was guilt, frustration, or just plain fear of what I was about to find. Chloe had disappeared, and the only place I could think to start was here. Her mother had been admitted to this hospital some time ago, and it was my only lead to locate her. The same mother that I had hated and blamed for everything. Goodness, how could she even forgive me now? I said a lot of harsh words against her mother. I moved quickly through the sterile white halls, the smell of antiseptic burning my no

ETHAN. My mind had been all foggy. The thoughts intertwined and I have been thinking of a way out of this. With Grandpa, my new family, and the new found enemies. It had really been hard on me for the last couple of weeks already battling with sending Chloe off. And now, the truth is out. Chloe did nothing wrong. I sighed and then ran my hand in my hair. This seemed to be wrong. Everything looked tiring already and I hadn't even started. “What about the enemies, Grandfather?” I asked, my voice low but firm. “Do you really think it’s wise for me to step in now?”“Yes,” he replied, his tone leaving no room for doubt. “Now that they know you exist, there’s no use hiding. Facing them head-on is the best course of action. I’ve done what I could, but I couldn’t bring them down. It’s your fight now. Fighting for the family.”I nodded, feeling the weight of his words settle heavily on my chest. He gestured for me to follow, leading me to a room deep within the mansion. It was a space th
