Chloe's POVI went to work early, just so I could go back home early and move to my apartment. I was just excited about Ethan coming to visit. It's been only two days but it felt like forever.Things at work had been going great. Since I confronted my boss, he did well to stay away from me and not send me gifts anymore. At least I had one thing to be thankful for.When I got to Bonnie's house, I met her packing my things already."So eager for me to leave, are you?" I joked. I knew that she was only trying to help me. She laughed, shaking her head."Yes. You eat a lot, and I cannot afford to feed the ex girlfriend of a billionaire.""Ouch! That hurts." I placed my hand on my chest dramatically, making her roll her eyes at me.By the time Bonnie and I finished packing, she drove us to my apartment."You are always free to come back to our house if you think you can't stay alone. Jeremy and I won't mind."I knew that they would not mind at all. But I also knew that Bonnie was a very bus
Ethan's POV I was back in my Mansion. I had been feeling so good, until I stepped back in here. My men informed me that Ashley was around, but I didn't pay any mind to her. I just freshened up and got myself ready for work that day. When I went back into the living room, I met Ashley seated there, her hair now blonde. She also usually wore her hair in waves, but now it was straight and tied in a high ponytail like Chloe usually did. Was she trying to look like Chloe, or was I reading too much into it? "Baby, you are here. I waited for you last night. Good morning." "Good morning, Ash. I am off to work. I will see you later." I responded to her nonchalantly. The only reason that made me look at her was her hair, but it only made me miss Chloe. She smiled when she saw me looking at it. "You like my new hair? I figured you might like this colour." She took a few locks of the hair, rolling it between her fingers. I didn't say anything to her. I just left. About an hour after I got t
Ethan's POVI closed late from the office again. I wanted to spend the night with Chloe. Maybe I could be doing this everyday of my life. But when I got to the house, I met only Marian, and she was putting Ariana to bed."Where is Chloe?" I asked Marian."Oh, she went out to get something. She would be back soon."I then went to my daughter's bed and knelt by the side. She yawned and stirred, opening her eyes."Daddy?"My heart did a little flip, and I literally felt like jumping up from excitement, but I was not about to make a fool of myself in front of Marian. But I still couldn't wipe the wide smile off my lips. It felt so fucking fulfilling hearing her small sweet voice call me daddy."Mm, Angel, how are you?"She scrambled out of the bed and into my arms, wrapping her little arms around my neck. The little one was so clingy, especially when she was tired or sleepy.I just carried her, rocking her body. I knew that she would sleep soon. I was even surprised to meet her awake by t
Ethan's POVI was behind the wheel, while Myles sat beside me on the passengers seat. He just got off from a call."With the way you are driving, you are going to get us killed before we find your girlfriend."I was speeding, beating traffic. I was sure that I would suffer for it later, but I could not bring myself to care now. The only thing in my mind was Chloe. I needed to find her, or I would literally lose my mind."And by the way, where the hell are you driving to?""Tristan Davis." I uttered the name in my mind. I couldn't be exactly sure he had her, but he was a top suspect in my list. He knew about Chloe, and he hated that I dumped his sister for her. He made his disapproval clear that day of his visit."One fucking bastard." Myles hissed. "But you do know that you might not be able to get into his home. He has strong security.""They will let me in."Myles only shrugged beside me.When we got to Tristan's house, we were informed that he had not been in town for about a week.
Ethan's POVI went back to my house, hoping to find Ariana there. I was very scared to face her. I know that she would ask about her mom, and I didn't know what to say to her. Marian told me that she had been crying and asking for her.When I got to my estate gate, I was surprised to meet Bonnie standing there. She was pacing restlessly, and I could only guess that my security didn't let her in. I wind my glass down, and she rushed to me."Did you find her? Did you get any leads?" She asked desperately. Her eyes were puffy and a bit red, like she lacked sleep and had been crying. "Please answer me."I remembered my father saying that I would not find her and that she was with someone that cares about her. I really didn't get to know much about the people in her life, and I hated myself now for that. I just knew Bonnie, her brother and that Dylan that was trying to date her. Could it be any of them?I didn't think it would be Bonnie. Chloe told me all about their friendship and how Bon
Chloe's POVMy lashes fluttered and I squinted my eyes adjusting to the light. Not that it was too bright, but I had not seen light for some time. I rolled my body to the edge of the soft and big bed that I was lying on, wanting to get up. I had been drifting in and out of sleep for the past few hours, or maybe days, I had no idea."Hey, Chloe, you are awake." A masculine but soft voice echoed close to me. "You must be thirsty. I should get you water.""E... Ethan?" The name just left my lips. That was the person I was hoping to see."Not Ethan. He is looking for you."I forced my body to sit up, feeling very tired. I felt like a bulldozer ran over me a number of times."Who... are you?" My voice was hoarse from lack of water, and my throat felt very dry. I tried to see the person, but he had his back to me, as he poured water into a glass. The voice sounded familiar, but I was still feeling very disoriented, and I couldn't point out who the voice belong to."I will bring you food. Yo
Ethan's POVJust last night, Bonnie called me and told me that she got a call from Chloe. I wanted to know if she made mention of her location, but she said the call ended before she could say anything.The good thing was that Chloe said she was fine, but my main concern was that I was certain that she was held against her will. Chloe would never leave Ariana on purpose. I knew she would be worried.Bonnie sent me the number Chloe called her with, and I had been trying to trace the location since, but I was getting nothing. The only way to indeed free her now was to marry Ashley. I might find her eventually, but it would take time, and I was not certain of what would happen with her from now till then.After much contemplation, I decided to call Ashley. And as usual, when the call connected, her enthusiastic voice came in."Hey, babe.""Prepare yourself, we are getting married tomorrow."I heard her gasp. "Tomorrow? That is too sudden. I need to buy my dress, make my hair, invite my f
Chloe's POVBonnie dragged me into the night club, as I reluctantly followed after her. I didn't plan to come here, but she thought it would cheer me up.I had recently been fired from work, and it had left me feeling a little moody. My boss had asked me to sleep with him, and when I refused, he framed me up and fired me. He spread different rumours, making my colleagues believe that I had tried to seduce him for a promotion.Just before we entered, Bonnie stopped and stood in front of me. She held my shoulders at arms length, and I knew that she was going say something to cheer me up. She was my ever supportive best friend."I brought you here to have fun, to forget about that fucking boss of yours. I know that you really liked the job and it paid you a lot, but with a boss like that, it is not worth it. You will get another one, so fuck him!"I smiled, nodding my head at her. I then decided that I was going to my best to have fun, just so her effort would not be wasted.Bonnie began
