Ethan woke up the next morning to see his wife staring at him while he was still asleep, her eyes searching for answers with an intense glitter. He groaned, stretching while he flickered. “Good morning, Babe.” He cleared his throat and sat up, and an inquisitive stare took over his expression.“Is everything okay?” He asked after a while, but Emma still refused to break her silence.While she continued staring at her husband, she adjusted to get into a more comfortable posture, her lips parting slowly.Thinking that she was about to speak, Ethan paid keen attention, but it seemed like she had suddenly forgotten what she wanted to say.Ethan took a deep breath, worry slowly crawling into him. “What is it?” He drew closer and attempted to grab his wife’s hand, but she pushed him away before he could get to her. Ethan huffed. “Could you at least tell me what the problem is?” Ethan looked around, but seeing that everything was still intact, he returned his bemused face to his wife. “D

Emma stood still like a statue, watching as Eva approached her with a smile.Gripping tightly to the things she held, she took a deep breath, still attempting not to act too nervous. She lacked the right words to say, but she knew she couldn’t remain silent no matter what. “I hope I am not late.” She said with a voice that had almost lost its grip, attempting to look at her wristwatch. But her eyes seemed like they were going to stop moving if she tried to look again. “Oh no!” Eva shook her head, taking the final step before she shook hands with her as if she was the one coming for a very important meeting.“The CEO asked me to make sure that I give you ample time, and that is exactly what I am doing. I have canceled all the appointments I have for today just to make sure that I give you all the service I can render.” Emma nodded with a smile. “I am glad. But I still wonder how I was able to be given this opportunity. I am sure that there are more capable hands to handle this proj

An uproar of murmuring and gasp erupted from everyone as soon as they heard what the young man said. Eva was the only was who was silent, but her eyes were wide, her brows arched, and her lips parted.For over five seconds, she couldn’t say anything, but it was very obvious that everyone was waiting for her to say something. “Are you surprised?” Ivan sniggered, staring at Eva with a sinister smile. “Didn’t Father tell you about me before he died?” He faked a sad expression. “God rest his soul!” He sighed, lines of fake emotions drawn all over his face. “I am his only son, and that automatically makes me the heir to the company and everything my father owns.” Eva sighed. “I worked with Mr. Lawrence for over a decade, Mr. For once, he never mentioned that he had a son. You are an impersonator, Ivan, and I would advise that you find your way out of these premises before I disgrace you.”Her eyes scowled at him, but he didn’t seem to care about whatever she was thinking. “Leave thi

“You told me that Mr. Lawrence had no children. You told me that he had no family.” Eva sighed, looking down slowly. “Yes, I did. That was what the old man told me himself, he was certain that he had no bloodline. I even made my findings, and I didn’t find anything.”“How come no one knew about him until now?” “That’s because he just showed up, Mr. Ethan.” Eva sighed heavily, and then she stole a quick glance at Ivan. “I don’t think he is telling the truth.” She whispered only to Ethan’s hearing, returning her eyes to him.Ethan sighed. “But these look very evident enough, Eva. This result is from the same hospital where my sister is.”Eva nodded. “I know, Mr. Ethan. But we will still need to verify.” Ivan grunted, inching closer to them. “I am tired of standing outside! Is this how you would treat your new boss?!” He fired, his voice reeking of so much disdain and impatience. He turned to Ethan. “Maybe you will be more reasonable than this lady right here. She seems to be wastin

Ethan scratched the back of his head, his eyes searching for nothing in particular while they refused to look at his wife. “What are you hiding from me, Ethan?” Emma asked, certain that he was hiding something from her.“You have been acting very strange lately. Ethan shook his head, taking a deep breath. “I have not been hiding anything from you, my love.”“Then tell me how you were able to pay for your sister’s medical bills?” Emma asked with an angry tone, looking directly into her husband’s eyes. Ethan took a deep breath, and with a low tone, he responded, “I took a loan.”“What?!” Emma gasped. “You did what?!” She looked around to be certain that no one heard her outburst.Seeing the young lady staring at them while she slowly moved toward the entrance of the hospital, Emma forced a smile. As soon as the lady was gone, she returned her gaze to her husband, staring with a piercing look of displeasure. “Why would you do such a thing, Ethan?! Have you suddenly forgotten that we
