Author’s POVRight at that moment, Hannah caught sight of Ethan on the balcony, and her anger grew. She had found out more about him in the last hour than she had this whole time, and even when she could turn a blind eye to what the girls had said earlier, learning that Ethan was already engaged deeply upset her.She stormed toward him immediately and pulled him away,“What the hell Ethan! Were you planning on ever telling me that you’ve been engaged before?” She snapped, her voice rising.Ethan stared at her deeply, his eyes flashing with anger. It was subtle, barely noticeable but it left her with an uneasy feeling that settled deep in her stomach.However, she was too pissed herself to care about the intensity in his eyes. She held his gaze, her eyes narrowed slightly as if she were trying to see through him.“Say something!” She blurted angrily.Ethan was about to say something, but when he noticed another guest approach them, he broke eye contact, even then, Hannah could still fe

Author’s POVEthan scoffed upon hearing this, “It seems you can’t if you’re just going to get yourself into dangerous situations. Someone has to watch you, Hannah, if not you’re just going to end up in a mess you can’t get yourself out of.”“Like this marriage,” Hannah interjected coldly.Those words hit Ethan low, and he paused for a moment, his face flushed with anger, but he composed himself and said nothing for some moment.Then he shifted his gaze, cold and stern toward Hannah, “You’ve been lying to me. Sneaking around behind my back. How many times, Hannah?”Hannah’s face immediately flushed with anger, as if she had finally been pushed to a curb, “You’re one to talk about honesty,” she shot back.“You keep secrets – you keep secrets about your life, about your business, about your friends and exes. I don’t even know who you are. Is anything about you even real?” She snapped.The car suddenly jerked to a stop over a deserted street, and the abrupt silence that followed was deafe

All that was required of him was to fulfill his father’s legacy by carrying on his responsibilities, both in the family and in the business.For Ethan, it was all too much at this point. With the pressures he had to face day in and day out, the person he was forced to be, he felt like a side of him was fading away like he was losing control.He walked through the grand hall of his mansion, his footsteps echoing as he walked past rooms he could barely reco

Author’s POVFinding out that there was truly a connection between Lily and Ethan devastated Hannah, she remained quiet for a while, looking at Ethan with pure horror on her face. She shifted her gaze away from Ethan for a while, trying to process this, and then suddenly she opened her mouth to talk, but the words remained stuck in her throat.After a while, she slowly pulled her wrist from his grip, but his hand lingered in the air, curling as if still trying to hold on to her touch.Reluctantly, Hannah sat beside him, brushing her hand over his as Ethan’s breath steadied. She stayed there, unable to pull herself away, her heart thudding painfully in her chest.At that moment, she could not help but wonder. Was this who he was when his guard fell? Was this the real Ethan beneath the steel exterior?

Author’s POVEthan walked up slowly to Julienne, and stopped just a few inches in front of her, “Drop it, Julienne,” he said his voice tight,“Just don’t get involved. My marriage is fine.” He brushed past her, heading out of the kitchen, hoping she’d let the matter go.Julienne on the other hand had no intentions of letting the matter go. She watched him leave, her mind slipping with possibilities. She’d seen the way Hannah looked at Ethan when he wasn’t noticing. A mix of desire and guardedness that screamed secrets. Nothing intrigued her more than a well-kept secret. She could tell that something was wrong and that Hannah might be too afraid to ask for help with Ethan, and knowing Ethan, he would be too blind to see it. As such she decided to do the one thing she knew Ethan would hate, and step in. As she walked out of the room, she made it a point to casually run into Hannah somewhere in the mansion. After searching for a while, she spotted Hannah across from the balcony, in the
