Ethan drove to Valerie's home again that night. He wanted to make an important decision in their life. Valerie was not expecting to see him again that same day after what had happened earlier with Conrad Patterson."What do you want?" She asked, on seeing Ethan."To apologize." Ethan responded and Valerie raised a brow at him."Okay? Go on." She probed."I already did." Ethan said and Valerie rolled her eyes."Are you kidding me? If you have nothing to say, please leave. Get out of my house. I pleaded with you not to hurt him but you did. Conrad is the president's son. You were not supposed to do that. What if something had happened? What if it got more serious than that? What if he lost his life in the process? What could I have explained?" Valerie fumed."You are only overthinking. It is not as serious as it seems. This is just your feminine traits acting up." Ethan said and Valerie's eyes narrowed."My feminine traits? Are you serious? So me expressing my concerns over your actions
Irene was very angry. She had to walk halfway to the club after the first cab had ran out of gas on the way. She walked down to the club. She was more angry because Ethan had kept her in charge of babysitting a brat like Skyler.As she walked into the club, people immediately noticed she was not there for clubbing. They all made way for her to go through. She looked around and found Skyler at a corner with some people. They were all drinking."Oh my goodness. What the hell." Irene muttered to herself and stomped towards Skyler.She grabbed the bottle of drink out of her hands."Hey give it back." Skyler slurred, trying to grab the bottle back. She had no idea it was Irene."What do you think you are doing? You are drunk." Irene scolded. Skyler lifted up her gaze to look at Irene."Oh it's you. Welcome. I almost thought you wouldn't make it." Skyler said, trying to keep her gaze steady."You are drunk. What do you think you are doing?" Irene asked again."Drunk? Haha. I am not drunk.
Irene immediately pushed her way through the crowd. The guys tried to push her back, but as a well trained officer that she was, they could not achieve that. She knew at once that as they were trying to push her backwards, it indeed meant they were doing something wrong. At that point, Irene didn't care if it was Skyler or not, all she wanted was to save the person,no matter who it was.When she was finally able to break through the crowd, she saw Skyler being man handled. At the sight of Irene, everyone around stopped. She looked different, some of them thought she was a cop at first. She looked around and saw Gigi, who was giggling mischievously and putting away her phone. Irene immediately suspected something had happened. She recognized Gigi as one of Skyler's friends who had gone with her in the car. The fact that she was not trying to help Skyler out of her ordeal meant something was totally wrong.She immediately went to Gigi who moved back slightly. She dragged the phone from
Ethan went after Valerie as she rushed out. She gripped the edges of her dress in an attempt to run across the road. Before she could do it, Ethan caught up with her and pulled her back."What do you think you are doing? Where are you going?" He asked as he pulled her back.Valerie stared at him breathing heavily and her eyes became teary."Calm down, okay?" Ethan said, cupping her face with his hands and she nodded."I'm sorry." She whimpered."Sorry for what? It's your choice, I can't force you to get married to me." Ethan said softly."No, it's...it's not that. I just...I don't know. Ethan,I am a nobody. This is too much. It's just too much. You are the legion commander, have you forgotten that?" Valerie asked."No, I haven't. I know who I am and that is even more reason why I want to be with you." Ethan responded, staring into her eyes."No." Valerie stated and looked away. "Why? Am I not good enough?" Ethan Inquired."You are perfect, Ethan." Valerie responded, still looking dow
Renee sat in front of the mirror staring at herself as the makeup artist put the finishing touches to her makeup. Jason walked into the room and his eyes lit up on seeing her."You look so beautiful babe." He said with a smile. Renee only smiled back in response.Jason turned to the makeup artist."Please excuse us for a minute." He said."Sure, I'll be out in a second." The make-up artist said. She quickly sprayed a setting spray on Renee's face and left the room.Jason walked to Renee's front and took her hands in his. "You look nervous." He said to her, gently caressing her hand."Yeah, I think so....I am." Renee responded with a false smile."Take a deep breath. It would all be over soon. It is just a day. By evening, it would be over. Relax and be calm." Jason said, calmly."Thank you." Renee replied."Thank you? It is my engagement as well, and trust me I am also as nervous as you are. I am just trying my best not to show it. It's not even our wedding yet, it's just an engageme
Ethan stared at the text on his phone. It was from Valerie."I am at the family house for Renee's engagement party. I didn't tell you about it due to the issues of the past. I still didn't want to tell you about it,but I don't want you to be worried about me. Note: This is not an invite, do not come to the party, I have no intentions of seeing here. If there is anything you need to know, be sure that I would keep you posted." The text read.Ethan didn't like the fact that she went to the family's house despite his warnings. He didn't care whose engagement or wedding party it was.He went to his wardrobe and picked out the first cloth he saw and threw it on. It was either he stayed with her or he took her out of there. He wondered why Valerie still insisted on going to the family house even after everything. He walked to the living room and was just about to step out when his mother called him back."Ethan, where are you going?" She asked."To see someone." Ethan responded."Who? Valer
Ethan drove really fast, he soon found the escaping man running into an alley. Ethan immediately stopped the car, got down from it, and without even locking the car door, he gave the man a hot chase. The man's steps had declined as he felt he had outran Ethan and his men, he had no idea that Ethan was already few meters behind him and was catching up on him.He paused to catch his breath when he saw Ethan."Oh shit!" He exclaimed and began to run again.Ethan didn't give him a chance to escape, he had a medal for being the fastest runner in high school, so catching up with the man was not a difficult thing for him.He caught up with him just at the end of the alley. The man turned to him, seeing he was already trapped. He swiftly brought out a dagger from his pocket."Do not come any closer." He growled at Ethan, moving backwards."Who are you?" Ethan questioned, moving towards the man as he moved backwards."Stay away. I would stab you with this dagger in my hand and I mean it." The
Ethan went into the building to access it and to make sure everything was going well. Just as he was coming down the stairs, he got a call from someone. It was Valerie."Hey," he said, trying to sound like he was in a good mood."Hey, Ethan. Where are you?" Valerie asked, over the phone. Ethan then remembered she had gone to her family's house."I don't know, I'm out... somewhere." He responded."Somewhere?" Valerie questioned."Yes, somewhere." Ethan added."Uhh.... doesn't that 'somewhere' have a name?" Valerie questioned."Why are you interrogating me? I went somewhere, okay? You left for your family's house and I didn't say anything about it, you really don't have to say anything about my own movements." Ethan responded and Valerie scoffed."Really dude? I am at your house, and that is why I called to know where you are. Stop acting so petty." Valerie said and hung up the call.Ethan halted at the stairs and realized he had indeed been petty. He quickly rushed down and went to his
