Perfectly on the morning of the beautiful day with a luxurious outlook of the surroundings, a man dressed in a tailored suit and dark shades stepped out of a sleek midnight black car that pulled into the front of a tall building. His confident gait and air of sophistication immediately drew the attention of passersby, as he approached the entrance of the magnificent six-star hotel.The entryway was a masterpiece of architectural design that had towering glass doors framed by polished marble pillars, and the soft sound of waters flowing down a nearby phoenix fountain created a soothing ambiance that welcomed guests, into the realm of luxury and opulence. Ethan's eyes swept across the lobby taking in the sight of plush velvet sofas as he made his way inside, which were adorned with intricately embroidered cushions, all arranged around tables that had beautiful scented flowers on them. He nodded his head slightly to see that the arrangement was perfect in the way he would have wanted,
A heavy feeling of anxiousness settled deep within Ava's chest, as she sat in a meeting with the fashion stylist that she had to meet urgently without faltering. Even if she had given up going back to the hotel to check what was going on with her kids, she remained so restless throughout the meeting and tried so hard to keep up effectively. A veil of unease wrapped around her by each passing minute spent in the meeting room, and her hands trembled uncontrollably betraying the inner turmoil that was welling up in her. She tried hard to get the fact that Beatrice had told her that her kids were presently eating breakfast with Ethan, whom they met in the elevator . 'How could he have met the kids again? Why was everything not going her way with Ethan?' And with the completion of a very successful meeting with the fashion stylist, Ava made her way into the car that was waiting outside for her already and told the chauffeur to drive very fast back to the hotel. She didn't even wait to t
Ava checked out of the hotel suite the moment she was able to leave the rooftop with her kids, and she didn't say anything to them till the chauffeur arrived and the nanny packed their bags into the car. Autumn kept asking her mother nonstop if everything was fine with her and Ethan, but she just smiled occasionally and nodded without giving a definite answer. She could not even blame the poor helpless nanny that had called her endlessly when they saw Ethan, because there was nothing that the poor woman would have done in that situation. Ethan's intimidating aura was enough to make her cower. Ava left immediately when he finally let her go after their meeting at the rooftop balcony, and it was still hard for her to understand what had happened in there with him. It momentarily felt like she had not been in control of her own body for a while. Still, her heart dwelt in the suffocating grip of fear of what Ethan was capable of doing concerning the kids. The fact that he was endlessly
Ethan was sitting in the office comfortably resting on his chair, with his eyes shining with a gentle, serene happiness like a glow that emanated from within him. He had been feeling so pleased since the day before for an unknown reason, and it was a new kind of feeling that he had not felt in a long time. He beamed a radiant smile stretching from ear to ear as his entire face alighted more than ever, and remained like that since he got to the office and started working on every of his piled-up jobs. Surprisingly, he had even slept better than he had slept in months the previous night. The memories from the previous day were hard to get rid of. Watching Ava stare in flushness the previous day brought some kind of hope to his heart, because that was a different kind of light than he had ever seen her before. To him, she looked so cute when he took her unaware the moment he grabbed her, as the heat that rose within her seemed to radiate outwardly to his notice. Her lashes had drooped
"If you get caught, it is none of my concern, bitch! We had an agreement and you didn't deliver!" Anna yelled across the phone in anger, as she paced randomly all over her large living room. "Do not tell me that, fucker! You gave me an instruction on what to do, and I did just that. What shit you tryna pull with me now. Is it my fault that the scandal aren't working?!" The fuming lady from the other side of the phone spoke with anger intensity in her voice. "Oh, so you can shout here and be nasty while you act so goody-goody on social media? You were so confident days ago. You said you could do it so well. You messed it up and you are asking to be what? Paid?" Anna demanded angrily from the influencer that she was talking to, as she took her seat on her couch and grabbed the glass of whiskey she had on the table. "Is it my fault that you are just an unlucky bitch and cannot do anything right? Look now, I'm fearing for myself cause there's no way I'm not going to jail, if I get caugh
Seated in the far corner of the restaurant, Ava had requested two servings of her and Dali's favorite combo whenever they met. The place was a nice restaurant spot that she found out about when it opened recently, which had landscape art as its major theme of the restaurant background, paintings, and outlook that matched her vibe. Artwork adorned every wall around the restaurant carefully curated to complement its aesthetic nature, with paintings, sculptures, and other artistic pieces that added a touch of sophistication to it, creating a gallery-like atmosphere that enhanced the overall ambiance. A piece of nice classical music from the early 50s played too. Dali had begged so much to meet her for a make-up dinner, after ditching the musical concert that she had meticulously planned and evaded at the last minute. Not forgetting Ethan's sudden popping-up part too, Ava was ready to take it all in. It was a scene that had not stopped replaying in her head nonstop. Immediately she re
Ethan woke up later than usual and stood on the balcony of his room for minutes, watching carefully as everything was going on within the axis of his compound. The workers were busy with their jobs in and out of the house as usual, more conscious of how they acted while under the surveillance eyes of their cold boss. He was sitting comfortably and sipping hot coffee as the sun rays shone brilliantly on his face, and he seemed to be in a bad mood ever since Ava had left the concert hall hurriedly after she saw him. He knew she was avoiding him so seriously to a terrible extent, that he was feeling like there might be no results even if he tried harder. Within him was anxiety that erupted nonstop which he was trying to conceal, and it was hard to feel good knowing well that the thoughts of her constantly eroded his mind. It bothered him deep down in his heart to know that he could never feel better, if she never took him back and let their past be bygones. 'Never knew getting a lady
