TOO LATE FOR AN APOLOGY
“What am I supposed to do now? I don't even know if Ethan will agree to speak to me.”Sally sat on the edge of her bed, staring at her phone as she tried to find the right words to express what she was feeling. Since the news of Charlie's expulsion had spread, several people had contacted her to find out what had happened, but she had ignored most of their messages. She had no interest in discussing the family's problems with people who were only curious about the scandal.Charlie had deceived them all, stolen from his own family, and allowed innocent people to take the blame for his actions. Sally no longer wanted to defend him, but that didn't make it any easier to face the truth about her own behaviour.Her thoughts kept returning to Ethan.When they were younger, he had always been there for her. Whenever she got into trouble or felt upset, he was the first person she turned to. He would protect her even when it meant getting into trouble himself, and she had never doubted that sh
BUT HE'S OUR SON
“Have you seen the announcement? Tell me Charlie hasn't actually been thrown out of the Carvendish family.”Jerome Carvendish had received several calls since morning, and each one had been about the same subject. Some people wanted to know what had happened, while others were simply curious to hear the details behind the family's sudden decision.He had expected the news to spread, but he hadn't anticipated how quickly it would reach people outside their usual circle.“Yes, it's true. Charlie is no longer associated with our family,” Jerome confirmed during another call, keeping his response brief before ending it.Hailey sat on the sofa across from him, listening to the conversation. She had barely slept the previous night, and the calls only made her more uncomfortable. For years, Charlie had been introduced as their son, and they had proudly spoken about his achievements and reputation. Now, the same people who had praised him were contacting them to find out why they had disowned
WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOU TRYING TO HIDE FROM ME DAD?
“That's none of your concern right now, Charlie,” the man warned, making it clear that he had no intention of discussing the matter further. “You've already caused me enough trouble, and the best thing you can do now is keep quiet. All I ever asked of you was to maintain a low profile, win their hearts as their adopted son, and make yourself indispensable to the family. It was a simple task, yet you still managed to fail. So, for now, stay out of trouble and don't do anything unless I tell you otherwise.”“But Dad, you can't expect me to sit here and do nothing while Ethan ruins my life, he is the reason behind everything, how can I let it go?” Charlie protested, struggling to contain his frustration.“Listen to me, Charlie. You've already made enough mistakes, and if you want my help, you'll follow my instructions without creating another problem,” his father ordered. Charlie fell silent, knowing he had little choice but to obey. After a brief pause, he agreed to do as he was told,
YOU'RE COMING TO GET ME?
“Damn it! How dare they throw me out of that house after everything I've done for them?”Charlie kicked an empty bottle lying near his feet before dropping onto an old wooden chair. He was sitting inside a small, unfamiliar room on the outskirts of the city, a place he had never imagined himself visiting until the guards dragged him out of the Carvendish Mansion.He had spent the past few days trying to find somewhere to stay, but the moment he contacted a few of his wealthy friends, they began making excuses. Some claimed they were busy, while others didn't even bother answering his calls.“Those useless bastards! They used to follow me everywhere when I had money, but now they won't even pick up my calls,” Charlie cursed, throwing his phone onto the table.He had never experienced such humiliation in his life. Even when he lost money through gambling, he had always been confident that the Carvendish family would eventually help him. Jerome had trusted him completely, Hailey had trea
A GLIMPSE OF FOREVER
“Ethan, if you keep working without eating, I'm going to take that laptop away from you.”Scarlett stood beside the couch with a plate of food in her hand, watching her husband finish typing something on his laptop. After their heartfelt conversation about the truth behind Ethan's rescue, the bond between Scarlett and Ethan grew stronger than ever. A week passed, and both of them gradually returned to their usual routines, carrying on with their work and daily lives.He had been working for nearly an hour despite promising her that he would take a break after returning home, and she was beginning to lose patience with him.“Give me five minutes, Scarlett. I need to finish this,” Ethan answered without taking his attention away from the screen.“You told me the same thing twenty minutes ago, and I'm not going to listen to another excuse.” Scarlett placed the plate on the table, walked over to him, and held out her hand. “Close it and eat something before your food gets cold.”Ethan fi
THE REAL SAVIOUR
“Do you remember the night you were kidnapped, Ethan?”Ethan turned toward Scarlett, trying to understand why she had brought up that particular memory. “Of course I remember it. I was a child, but I still remember being frightened and not knowing whether anyone would find me. I think we have already spoken about it before.” Scarlett held his hand as she began to explain. “I knew that but I didn't mention a few things that day. Well, I accidentally overheard a conversation the night you were kidnapped and realized something had happened to you. I didn't know where you were, but I couldn't just sit there and wait for the adults to figure everything out. I decided to look for you myself.”Ethan watched her with growing attention as she continued. “It was already dark, and I had no idea where to go. I followed what little information I had until I finally found the place where they were keeping you. I was frightened, too, but when I heard you moving inside, I knew I couldn't leave witho
