CHAPTER 51
“Hello”“Hello Sarah?” Ethan asked as he picked the call without checking his phone.“Yeah, it's me. Where are you?” Sarah asked from the other end of the call.Ethan placed the phone between his shoulder and neck as he went through some documents on the table with his laptop in front of him.“Uhmm, I'm home right now. How're you doing?”“I'm about to leave for the mall. If you're not too busy, I'd like you to join me” Sarah requested.Ethan looked down at his watch to check the time as his brows furrowed, "I'll be there in less than an hour. Send the location to me if you don't want me getting lost”.“Phew! Thank you so much. You're a dear friend. I'll send you the location now. Be there soon, byee” Sarah said over the phone before Ethan replied, “Bye!!!” then hung up the call.He dropped his phone on the table and went into his room to look for what he'll wear to the mall and he succeeded in picking out a vintage shirt and a black pair of trousers. He finished it up with a brown pa

CHAPTER 52
"We're not struggling. Both the Millers and the Graham's are stronger financially when we come together. Or don't you want to show Ethan that you are more of a man than he could ever be?" Melissa argued with Jason.Jason knew that it was no use arguing with Melissa cause she'll only keep insisting and he wasn't ready for a back and forth with her."You're right. Let's get it. Only the best for my munchkin." Jason teased her and walked towards the counter to pay for the gown.Melissa walked towards the counter behind Jason, pushed Sarah and she fell on Ethan. Melissa scoffed, "Pathetic"."Watch how a real man does it for his woman." Melissa flung her hair as she held Jason's arm.Sarah was about to walk away to hide her shame, when she noticed that Jason was looking for his card and he said,"Seems I left my card in the car." Jason laughed nervously as the sales rep stared at him."I'll just go get it right now." He scratched his head and left the counter with Melissa.Ethan smiled, no

CHAPTER 53
"What are you doing here with this bitch, Jason?" Melissa screamed as she slammed her fist on the table where Jason and another girl were seated."How dare you interrupt our quiet time together?" The other girl sitting with Jason, stood up and landed a heavy slap on Melissa's face.Ethan and Sarah walked into the same lounge to have their lunch, when they saw Melissa being slapped across the face by another woman while Jason sat there like a big ol' pile of nothing."Ouuu""Damn!!!""That must've hurt"."That would leave a mark".Ethan and Sarah gasped, while the other people enjoying their meal exclaimed from the scene that was unfolding in front of them.Melissa was still reeling from the slap, before she grabbed the other lady's hair and they were about to start fighting, when Jason finally stood up to intervene."Babe, you don't need to do this. Why are you not at home? You're not supposed to be here." Melissa landed a slap across Jason's face."You're sitting here, enjoying your

CHAPTER 54
“Hahaha” Sarah and Ethan laughed at the sight of Melissa and Jason being escorted out of the building.“Gosh, my day has been made” Ethan exclaimed as he heaved a sigh.Sarah reached for Ethan's hands, looked in his eyes and said softly, "Thank you so much, I appreciate you”.Ethan looked puzzled and confused for a minute before he asked,”Thank you for what?”“Thank you for the gown and generally a good day. It's been awhile I had that” Sarah explained. “It's nothing my dear. I'm happy to do this for you” Ethan replied with a smile on his face.“No, it's not nothing. I actually mean it. I would have felt so bad if Melissa had the chance to humiliate me like she wanted. Thank you for not letting that happen." Sarah said as she held Ethan's cheeks and stared at him.“Bring the bill,” Ethan beckoned to the waitress nearby.She walked over to Ethan and said calmly, "Your bill has been settled by the gentleman in the corner”“Ouuuu, Sarah you have an admirer," Just as Ethan teased Sarah,

CHAPTER 55
"This suit is worth $10million and it's definitely going to steal the show." Raphael announced."It is very tempting, but I think I'm going to stick with the suit I wore to Melissa's wedding." Ethan said, waving his hand to dismiss the clothes."I'm not going to allow you to do that. This is your very first reunion since you left college. It's time to show them that you're no longer the Ethan that they could walk over, just like they did, back in the day." Raphael stated with determination.Ethan let out an exasperated sigh."I'm not going there to reveal my real identity to them, but I also don't want to go there looking like the laughingstock I once was."Tony and Raphael began smiling like they had hit the jackpot with convincing Ethan to wear the suit they got for him."I'll only wear the suit on one condition." Ethan announced.Tony and Raphael almost facepalmed themselves before they asked,"What's that?""I can see Watson's family emblem embroidered on the arm of the blazer. Ge

CHAPTER 56
"Melissa!!!" Jason yelled from downstairs."Yes!!!" Melissa yelled in response."We should be on our way. We're going to be late,” Jason retorted.“For fucks sake! You can't go anywhere with women, without them dragging you hours behind time. Fuck!” Jason muttered to himself under his breath.“I'm coming, urggh! How do I do look?” Melissa asked Jason, as she walked down the stairs.“You look fine, can we go now?” Jason asked without even sparing her a glance.He took his keys from the table and walked out.“Wait for me” Melissa echoed, as she held the hem of her gown in her hand and skipped out, right behind Jason.Jason got into the car as he yelled out, "Get over here! I've waited for you to bathe, dress up and put on make-up and now, I'm waiting for you to get into the car”.Melissa was stunned at Jason's mean behavior towards her, she walked to the car, opened the door for herself and got in.“You couldn't even open the door for me or tell me how nice my dress is. You didn't even

CHAPTER 57
Everyone stood in small groups as they watched the army green mercedes- Maybach s-class slowly make the U-turn and roll up to the entrance of the building. Hailey and Melissa’s little group moved closer to the entrance for a better look.Whispers flew from corner to corner as everyone tried to guess who it was that was rich enough to attend a gathering like this in the latest maybach.“I wonder who it is,” Hailey wrapped her hand around Melissa’s upper arm. The maybach sat in silence. The driver's door swung open and Chris stepped out of the driver's seat. He straightened his black tux and walked around the car to the passenger door behind. With a deep breath, he pulled open the passenger door. Silence suddenly fell on the onlookers as they watched in copious anticipation.A sleek black cunningham brogue lace up suddenly appeared beneath the door of the car.Melissa eyed the $20,000 shoe. “I’m almost breathless! Can this mystery man just stop hiding behind the light and show his

CHAPTER 58
Jason noticed Melissa's eyes were staring daggers at him and he left the lady he was dancing with, to give Melissa some attention.He hugged her and with the stench of alcohol in his mouth, he screamed amidst the music playing in the background, “Hey babe! You remember her from highschool?”Melissa was disgusted by his behavior and the alcohol he poured from his breath right into her nostrils, but with a condescending look she replied, “Yes, your hooker girl back in the day. How could I forget?”Melissa turned to the lady and asked,” Charlene is it?”“Yes it is. And I don't see myself as a ‘hooker girl’. We're just two people who love to unwind and party. You should try it sometimes” Charlene replied.Charlene turned to Jason with a disappointed look as she held his face “Gotta go now. Your girl is still a party pooper, even if she's with you now. See you later”.Charlene walked away right after slipping her number written on a paper inside Jason's pocket.Frustrated and let down, Jas

"Jack, you finally made it. Took you long enough." Ethan said as he returned to Sarah's side and they noticed Jack walk in.Jack walked happily with his arm candy towards Ethan as he greeted and hugged both Sarah and Ethan.“Took you long enough” Sarah said to Jack with her eyes staring at the lady beside Jack.“It's not what you think guys” Jack said as soon as he noticed Ethan and Sarah staring suspiciously.“Ethan and Sarah, this is Lydia. And Lydia dear, these are my friends, Sarah and Ethan” Jack continued.Lydia walked over to hug Ethan and Sarah with her auspicious smile and they smiled back at her.“So, what's the story with you two? Are you dating or?” Sarah started with an expectant look for a continuation.Lydia and Jack laughed as Ethan and Sarah stared confusingly then Lydia spoke up, “Oh no, we're not dating. We are childhood friends and since you both came as a pair, he asked me to join him and get a chance to meet his friends and I couldn't say no. He has those puppy e

CHAPTER 60
"You deserved that." Sarah spat at Ted before walking away with Ethan, Jack and Lydia."But how did that just happen? I mean how did Ted lose everything in one swift move." Lydia asked with curiosity written all over her features."They probably found out that instead of using the original materials that were supposed to be used for the brand, Ted got greedy and used substandard materials instead." Jack tried explaining"Plus, I had everything streamed live, so that must've dealt the final blow to his bullshit." Ethan smiled mischievously, wiggling his phone in his hand."Thanks man for having my back." "Hey, hey, hey, you would do the same for me."Jack and Ethan bro-hugged before Lydia broke the bonding moment and said,"Enough with all the mushy mushy. I heard there's supposed to be a homecoming king and queen at this reunion. Something like back in the days in highschool and college.""Yeah, I heard that too, but I'm not interested. Are you?" Sarah threw the question to Lydia."I
