Ethan's gaze immediately shifted to her."Did I hear you clearly?" he asked.Rosanna swallowed hard and clutched her fingers tightly before lifting her gaze to face him."You did," she paused."I'm pregnant, Ethan. I'm almost 2 months pregnant." She informed him, causing Ethan's brows to ease up a little."When did you find out?" He inquired,"Shortly after your wedding with Catelyn. A day before your honeymoon," she said, being specific."The baby... Its father?" Ethan arched his brows, waiting for her to speak."It's you. It's you, Ethan. Before that day, I'd been with no one." She informed him, causing Ethan to shift his gaze away from her."I know what you're thinking. The Milma family are all liars and home wreckers...""Shhhh, Rosanna," he stopped her from going on with her words."Why didn't you tell me? You had yesterday, you had earlier before that...""Didn't you hear me when I said all my chances of getting to reach you were futile? But the next day when news got to everyon

Ethan swiftly turned to him, eager to hear the confession."Go on.""I was friends with your father, Martinez. We had our differences, and even before we died, we had a philosophical difference, and suddenly, I heard nothing of him again, and the news of his demise was everywhere on the internet that morning," Mr. Guardo continued."Okay... I'm guessing you have something to tell me about it." Ethan muttered, feeling impatient."Your father does not only own the Martinez empire!" He informed them, causing Ethan to frown."What do you mean?" He was confused."Your father owns another great empire. He never mentioned the name to me, but I'm certain he must have written it somewhere, probably in one of his journals." He informed, causing Ethan to sit up."How come no one knows?""He was running it in private, but the Empire was taken away from him. He never mentioned the name of the person either, but that was the beginning of many of his wrong decisions." "I tried to make him confide i

After Catelyn's meeting with the man, she contemplated whether she needed to head back to the mansion or stay here a little more, but unfortunately she couldn't.The environment irked her, and she couldn't help but wonder how people live in places like this and how they eat in places like this.She got into her car and drove straight to the mansion. She believed she had taken enough time from work, and now she wanted to make up for all those times wasted.On getting back to the mansion, she realized that Ethan was not yet back, their bed was empty, and their room was cold.She changed into a nightdress and took her laptop from the vanity. She knew she was careless by keeping it there, but she didn't really care.Before she climbed onto her bed, she brewed a cup of coffee for herself and placed it on the bedside table.She opened her laptop. She couldn't remember when last she checked her emails. "Damn... There are a lot of unattended messages!" She thought and popped her fingers befor

Micheal smirked, getting him the coffee that he requested for, "Do you have any idea where this journal could be?""No, I don't. You would check the house and the warehouse; that's the old site where the Martinez Empire used to be! Probably the builders or someone might know where it is." Micheal responded, Ethan took the cup of hot coffee from him and drank it, gulping it down his throat,"Okay. Thank you!" He said and walked towards the door but then paused, "How long do you plan on staying here?" He inquired,"An hour more!" Micheal responded, causing Ethan to swiftly turn, facing him directly."An hour more? You're leaving?""Yes, I've got myself a house here. I figured you might be needing my help for a very long time," Micheal said, causing a smirk to spread across Ethan's face."How do I get your address?" he inquired."I had it emailed to you 2 hours ago after making the purchase." He responded.Ethan nodded; he must have probably received the mail, but because he has been so

"Did you go to the warehouse?" Cersei asked, getting to her feet the second that Ethan walked through the door."It's good to see you too, Cersei." Ethan said and walked over to his desk."What's going on? I could feel that something was going on!" She said, but Ethan was not disinterested in listening to her ranting.Instead, he sat on his desk, turning on his laptop. "I have so much work to do, Cersei. On the phone you said that it was really urgent! I don't see what's urgent in this conversation," Ethan said, causing Cersei to arch her brows.Before she could begin to nag, there was a knock on the door, interrupting her for a second."Sir. I'm here with your coffee and some files that you'll be needing for the meeting with Dana's lawyer today." She informed, causing Cersei to almost choke on the words she wanted to say."Leave the coffee on the desk!" He pointed, causing Lilian to nod.She had so much work to do, and Ethan loved her dedication to the job. He planned on making her t
