Chapter forty-one: Mr Blackwood has a jealous side

As Ethan pulled me even closer, I could feel the tension radiating off him, it was sharp, controlled, and coiled like a predator ready to strike. Across from us, Victor only grinned wider, clearly savoring the effect he had on Ethan."Always a pleasure, Blackwood. We must catch up later," he said smoothly before strolling away, completely unbothered.I let out a breath I hadn’t realized I was holding and glanced up at Ethan. His grip on me was still firm, possessive, as if he had forgotten to let go."Do you always look like you’re about to commit murder at social events?" I asked, giving him a playful look. "Or is it just him?"He didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he plucked a champagne flute from a passing waiter and pressed it into my hand."Drink."I rolled my eyes. "Avoiding the question, noted."Before he could respond, another voice cut through the air—smooth, commanding, and laced with amusement."You must be Ethan Blackwood’s date for the evening."I turned to find an older

Chapter forty two: The Auction

"Ladies and gentlemen," the auctioneer’s voice rang out through the grand hall, "tonight’s mystery guest isn’t just a lucky surprise—she’s an enchanting vision, a siren, a rare gem in our midst! The stunning Miss Sophia Carter!"Oh My God! This isn't happening, I tried to make myself believe that this was all in my head but it obviously wasn't, from the loud applause and the murmers I knew it definitely wasn't a dream The spotlight remained on me pinning me in place like some rare artifact on display, it all made my entire body tense up.What the hell is happening?“Let the bidding begin.” Before he could properly end his sentence, a very old man raised his paddle grinning like he had struck gold."Five hundred dollars!" I wanted to scoff, I knew I was worth way more than that, but I nothing could prepare me for how I felt when I saw the bidder. Oh, hell no! I felt disgust clawing my insides as I almost puked, if this man won I would kill myself go to hell and drag Ethan with me."On

Chapter forty-three: The red-haired threat

I gripped the counter as my knuckles white as snow I stared at my own reflection in the mirror shocked at how completely out of balance I looked.My pupils were blown wide open, my pulse hammering so loudly I could hear it loudly, my breath was uneven and adrenaline still coursed through my veins as I tried to calm myself."What the hell just happened?" I muttered, struggling to process the million thoughts racing through my mind.The bidding war and of course Ethan’s final bid. Part of me liked it, knowing that he wanted to have a date with me so bad that he was willing to throw away a million dollars for it, and it wasn't just that but was he was he possessively said it.And when everyone looked in shock, I felt like I was a diamond or another precious stone. Then the door swung open."That was quite the spectacle, don’t you think?"I stiffened not expecting anyone to help here, the voice was smooth and sensual as I could hear amusement in the voice, it definitely belonged to a very

Forty-four: The red haired threat (continued)

The silence was incredibly loud and for the first time since the whole confrontation started her confidence faltered.Her expression looked vulnerable for a second and then she slipped back into her untouchable, ice-queen like demeanor."One of." she choked out and when I didn't reply she kept on talking."Classic Ethan," she was trying to play it cool even though her tone was dripping with fake amusement. "With new girl on his arm the old one gets discarded like last season’s handbag. And I guess you were lucky enough to make the call. Makes me wonder… who’ll be the one to do it when it’s your turn?"I should have felt doubt creeping in. I should have been the bigger perosn and backed down but Instead I took a step forward, closing the space between us until we were nearly nose to nose."You sound bitter." My voice was light and teasing. I tilted my head, watching her closely. "Still not over it?"Her jaw tightened ever so slightly."You think you’re warning me?" I let out a soft sco

Chapter forty five: Escalation at the Dinner Table

Adrian’s smirk deepened as his eyes moved between Ethan and me, I hated the fact that he looked as if he was getting the best entertainment of his life."Relax, Blackwood it was just an observation. No need to get all territorial."Ethan’s grip around his glass tightened. I exhaled slowly, placing a hand on Ethan’s wrist under the table as if it was a silent warning. The touch is enough to keep him grounded and not do anything drastic, I turned to look at Ethan whose jaw remained clenched."You're awfully interested in my personal affairs, Lancaster," Ethan said coolly. "Almost like you're obsessed."Adrian chuckled. "Oh, I wouldn’t say obsessed—just curious. I mean, a million dollars is a steep price, even for you. Makes a man wonder if it’s about winning, or if it’s about keeping someone away from me."He took a dramatic pause. "Which is it, Blackwood?"I can practically hear the challenge in his voice, and my stomach twists.Ethan doesn’t answer immediately , he takes his sweet ti

Chapter Forty-six: The morning chaos

My alarm was ringing loudly, but I wasn't ready to wake up especially after the event of last night, so I tried to pretend as if the alarm wasn't there, but I just couldn't.I groaned rolling over and putting a freaking pillow on my face but it doesn't stop, so I reached to shut it off only to see almost a million missed calls in my phone.And I wasn't exaggerating at all.I squinted my eyes at the screen in an attempt to see better since my vision still very much blurry with sleep.Mom (5 Missed Calls)Rachel (10 Missed Calls, 3 Texts)My heart skipped, did someone die? Wait! Did Ethan die?But why the hell was my mom calling me? Shouldn’t she be on her honeymoon, sipping cocktails on some exotic beach with her new husband?I didn't want to overthink it as I was too exhausted to deal with whatever new hell awaited me.I dropped my phone on the bed and pulled the covers over my head. Maybe if I ignore it, the world will go away.But I should have known better as not up to a second lat

Chapter forty seven: The Public Humiliation

Before I could ask the bastard what he heck he was doing here, he shoved a crumpled newspaper on my face.What the hell? I snatch it away from him as my eyes went to the bold headline."Ethan Blackwood’s latest conquest—how long until this one is replaced?"And beneath it was another photo, it was different from the one Rachel had sent. It was still a perfectly timed shot of Ethan and me from last night but this time, my hand was interlocking his. His fingers firmly wrapped around mineHe was whispering something in my ear as I smiled his gaze directed at me, sharp yet amused, like he’s whispering something only I can hear.It didn't look as if he forced me to this dinner, on the contrary we seemed madly in love."So a senior staff wasn’t enough for you?" The venom in his voice made me snap my head up, He didn't even bother hiding disgust written all over his face as his nostrils flared like a bull seeing red."You just had to fuck the boss too right Sophie?" He intentionally made hi

His office was quiet, there was no whispers or side glances from my co workers just Ethan's Intense gaze.He moved to his desk playing with his pen before sitting down and his piercing gaze never left mine.I keep my head high refusing to let him see how rattled I am.But now that we were here alone, the weight of every thing came crashing down as the adrenaline rush from my confrontation with Alex had finally left my system.I wasn't sure Ethan was fazed about the articles or even gave cared about what people would say about him calling me to his office, but he was the boss he could afford not to care, but I couldn't I was very much replaceable in both his life and in the office I got bored of the silence, seeing as Ethan was not going to make any effort to speak, I took the initiative, as I crossed my arms in an attempt to ground myself.

Chapter forty-nine: lunch time gossip

Even where Ethan had done that display, there was still eyes on me and I wasn't just imagining it.Rachel wanted to treat me to lunch and I knew we weren't just going to eat, she was doing to force my tongue spill the tea.When he walked into the café section everywhere went silent as everyone not so subtly glanced at me as I could feel their judgements from their whole body expression.I forced myself to keep my head high as we found a table while Rachel on the other hand.seemed completely unfazed as she sat across from me, sliding her tray onto the table with grace that only a Blackwood could pull of while I stabbed at my salad, pretending not to feel like a zoo exhibit."Don't worry you will get used to it," Rachel remarkedI blinked trying to act as if I didn't know what she was talking about "What?"She smirked nodding toward the nearby tables that was still talking about me "The attention, the gossip and the rumors. It’s all part of the fun, isn’t it?"I exhaled glancing around

By the time mid-afternoon rolled around, my bladder was screaming for relief. I pushed away from my desk and made my way to the restroom, slipping into one of the stalls.The moment I sat down, I heard the sound of the door opening and I heard the clicking of heels making an annoying against the marble floors, I forced myself to keep shut I didn't want to interact with the women here, all I had to do was keep shut for twenty minutes or so while I wait for them to get out, after all the just came to retouch their makeup."...such a desperate little slut. It’s pathetic."I froze, they were talking about me."Did you see the article? A million dollars just to take her out? Please.""Like, come on, Ethan Blackwood could have any woman in the city why would he pick her unless she was screwing him?"They bursted out in a cold cruel laughter. I couldn't helo but feel angry I gritted my teeth, fingers clenching into fists, they didn't even know half of the story but here they were judging me
