A flush of relief gushed through her spine as she rushed outside, trying to be certain that he was the one that was back.“Ethan!” She called out as her eyes lit up in excitement and, without hesitation, she hurried up to him and wrapped her hands around him, but as soon as she had sniffed the foul smell around him, she slowly pulled away.“Why do you reek of alcohol? Did she get you to drink?”“Yeah, in fact, she was trying to get me drunk” he announced, and as he started walking back inside, Zara froze at a spot, unable to wrap her head around the price of information he had just told her.But soon as she jerked back to reality, she hurried towards Ethan, yet he looked calm, like he had everything under control.“I told you th

No matter how much he struggled, he could not sit upright. Even with his gaze fixed on the sky, he was certain that this was the hospital, but each time he tried to recall what had happened prior to his accident, he would feel a sharp pain that jerked him back to reality.“Ethan! "Ethan!” He heard a female voice calling out to him. She was staring directly at him, her eyes were red, only portraying to him that she had been crying all this while.

"I can't make them know that we are going through a tough time, else they might belittle us.“Yeah I know. Sophia had been insisting on seeing you. She couldn't stand being locked up in her room.”“She should have thought about that when she decided to disgrace this family and with this last one she just pulled. I am not sure that her career is ever going to come off the mud ever again.”He responded, tucking his wristwatch around his wrist and then stared at himself again like he was trying to be certain that there was not a single spot.“You are looking all good Dad, we don't want to ke

Sophia immediately began to get dressed. Shuffling through her wardrobe and when she felt that she had seen a suitable dress, she slipped right into it before getting right to her makeup.“Isn't this dress too revealing?” Max asked, his gaze trailing at her from head to toe the moment she stepped out of the room.“I am a model, of course it has to be revealing!” She hinted out a sarcastic comment and, in her heels, she started walking out of there.Sophia arrived at the private lounge where Mr. Norbert was waiting for her.

Ethan was fast asleep when the door to his ward swung open. He immediately opened his eyes, alert to find out who it was and as soon as he realized that it was Liam, he finally relaxed.“How did it go? "Were you able to find out anything?” Ethan asked anxiously, but Liam let out a soft sigh before he shook his head.“Not at all. I couldn't find anything. Whoever that is running this operation must be an expert.”“What are you saying? Weren't you able to get the id of the trunk driver from the police?”“That is the thing, boss. "I went over to the precinct, but there was no trace of the truck anywhere, like your car wasn't hit by anyone in the first place.“That is impossible! "What are the cops saying?”“They are insisting that it was your driver that had run into a pole at the side of the road and there was never any truck seen on the scene.”Ethan widened his eyes in disbelief. He could not believe that something like this was happening to him and no matter how much he thought about

When Sophia first arrived in the hall, everyone had come to the conclusion that she was there to cause trouble, given what had happened the last time she was buzzing on the internet, but to their surprise, she had gone on her knees.“What are you doing?” Zara asked, looking all surprised in embarrassment. “You can't go on your knees for me, please get up!”“I can't get up, I have to apologize to you. Because I had offended you in front of everyone, so it is only proper that I go ahead and apologize before everyone!”“What are you talking about Sophia? "You haven't done anything wrong to me”, Zara plastered a smile on her face. As much as Sophia was trying to become the victim here, she was fighting so hard to be as kind as she could.Zara rose to her feet, a warm smile on her face while she walked over to where Sophia was kneeling down.“Come on, don't do that. Whatever it is that you think is wrong between both of us, I think that we can sort it out between ourselves. It doesn't have

Norbert widened his eyes in confusion, but no matter how much he looked, he could not comprehend what was going on and, as a result of that, he began to frantically search through his phone.“What is it, is everything alright?” Sophia asked, seeing that the excitement on his face just now had faded away and was now replaced with confusion.“The news, I can't find it!”“What news are you talking about?” Sophia still looked perplexed, trying to figure out what was going on.“What just transpired between you and Miss Zara right now has been wiped out, there is no trace of it anywhere or anyone speaking about it, like it never happened!”His jaws tightened as he explained the situation to her, but it was so difficult for Sophia to believe that something like this could happen.She immediately pulled out her cell phone from her purse, scrolling through the news feed, but indeed there was nothing that she could see.Her eyes had turned red, a micro of fury and confusion, and no matter how m

Ethan stood on his balcony, his dark gaze fixed outside the window. He had just received a call about Steele trying to meet with him and, although he was fully aware of the fact that they had no idea of his identity, yet Ethan felt his heart become heavy, recalling all the abuse he went through in their hands.His gaze was fixed outside where he could see the pool, his hands twisted around the glass of wine he held that he sipped from time to time and just then, Zara walked in.“Ethan!” She clasped both her hands together, her gaze buried to the ground as she called out underneath her breath.“How did it go with the new endorsement?” Ethan asked, and even while he did, he did not bother to turn around or take a glimpse of her.“It didn't work out again. They said they were going to get back to me. But that is not why I am here.”“Go ahead, why are you here?” he asked, even though he did not turn around to look at her, Zara could feel the rage in his voice.Despite how close she was to

At first, she was stunned to see her brother dressed in such a manner, but as she moved closer to him, she started to understand what was going on here.“So you truly are going on a date with that girl”“Yes, I just need to find out if she is truly a spy sent to me”“And how are you going to find out when you will be so lost in love and nothing else will matter to you?” She asked, but he ignored her question, staring at his reflection in the mirror from head to toe.“Wait, does it mean that she doesn't know about your identity?” Zara narrowed her gaze. For a moment there, she seemed even more confused.Ethan was reluctant to speak to her, but after a deep breath, he finally turned around as he held her shoulder.“There is something that has been going on which I didn't want to tell you about since I was afraid that you would become extremely worried.”“What

From time to time, Henry could not stop himself as he kept peaking glance at Brian and then his daughter. After a while, he could not hold it any longer and decided to crack his throat.“Sophia, you were so happy when I came back today, and now it seems like Brian was the reason for all the excitement. Care to share what is going on?”“Brian has decided to push our wedding forward”, she blurted out.

At first, he didn't want to respond to it, but after staring blankly at it for a while, he knew that there was nothing that he could do about it.But once the call had ended, there was a mixture of fear and anger in him. He had just exhausted so much money at the club last night, and he was fully aware of the fact that he wouldn't be able to pay back if asked to do so.As he sat down trying to calm down, so many thoughts began to flood through his mind, but one thing was certain for him that this strange man might be his ticket to returning to wealth.He immediately rose to his feet where he staggered to the shower, knowing fully well how he reeked of alcohol, he knew that he had to give himself a good bath.Once he was done having his bath, he got dressed in designer jeans and shirt, grabbed his car keys and drove out of there.

Ethan sat at the pool side of his mansion, his gaze critically fixed on the water where Zara was having a tough swim. She had been excited these few days and, after everything she had been through, Ethan thought that she deserved happiness.“Wow! "That was a good one” a wide smile evaded her lips as she walked out of the water dripping wet. She picked up the towel lying next to Ethan and once she had wiped off her face, she sat next to him.“I really had a good time and can't recall the last time that I had such fun. Guess I have been too busy to even think about that.”“I guess so, and I am also glad that you have learned to fight so many battles on your own, but you also need to be careful. Most times when you think that you have won, that is when they decide to strike, and for someone like Sophia, I know fully well that she isn't going to give up.”“I am aware of that, and whatever she decides to throw at me, I will be waiting for her”, she expressed with so much determination in h

As Brian stood in front of his car, he was hesitant to speak to this man, but he was at a desperate point in his life and not to mention the fact that he had just talked about a business proposal and that was something that he could not say no to.He walked up closer to the man and as he did, he furrowed his brows, cautiously staring at him.“What do you want from me?” he asked, but there was no response from him. Instead, he pointed at the car right before him. The glass window wined down and immediately Brian could see a figure before him.He was dressed in a blue handmade suit that hung perfectly around him, his eyes were covered in sunglasses, yet Brian still felt like he knew this man.“Get in!” The deep voice commanded, even though Brian hated being told what to do, he knew that this was different.

Just then, a knock struck through the door and as he ushered the person outside, it was Brian.“Brian?” He called out with his eyes wide open, knowing that he was the last person that he had expected to see given what had been going on in their lives.“What are you doing here?” A fake smile was plastered on his face as they both exchanged handshakes.“What do you mean by what I am doing here?
