"I should have known!" She said in a low voice. She tried stopping the tears from falling down her eyes, but she was unsuccessful."I'm sorry. I wish...""Shhh..." Rosanna stopped him from talking, took his phone, and flashed a small and gentle smile at him. "Just like everyone else. You ended up leaving." She said before walking out of the room, leaving Ethan alone.The second that his door was shut, Ethan fell on the bed and ran his hand through his hair.Next day.Ethan received news from his butler that Rosanna left the estate the previous day.Ethan frowned, saying, "And you let her leave at such an unholy hour?""I couldn't stop her, sir, and you hated being disturbed. I just had security follow her from afar, making sure that she got to where she was headed safely," he informed, causing Ethan to nod."Okay." Ethan left for his office. On getting to the office, he recalled that he was yet to tell Cersei about the news.She would most definitely not be surprised, and what would

"This is a sign, Ethan!" A sign that we are on the right part!" Cersei said, smiling.Ethan knew what she meant; for their plan to work out, he knew he needed to make some sacrifices.Cersei had already made some sacrifices; she believed herself to be a martyr, and Ethan could not argue that with her."Do you have any connection with Catelyn?" He mentioned that he needed to discuss it with her before giving me a reply tomorrow. Ethan said, causing Cersei to smile slyly with her eyes on a sheet of people as she ran her eyes through what was written on it before answering Ethan's question."I know you went in there with the same aura you came in here with. Believe me, it would be hard for even me to resist anything you offer, most especially when you lay out all the benefits in front of me." Ethan chuckled at her words.That was something Ethan learned after his family was assassinated. The act of growing up with no parents or parental figure inculcated a lot of things in him."I learne

A sly smile appeared on his lips; he knew exactly what the head of the Guardo family was trying to do. He wanted to keep them waiting, knowing that Ethan would not just come to his home to have a silly chat. "This is the most unexpected event!" "The head of the Guardo family said, walking into the sitting room." Ethan smiled and stretched his hand forward as the man got close to him. "I'm glad that you could have me." "I heard you said it was important, and most importantly, I heard it could benefit me." The head of the Guardo family said, causing Ethan to steal a glance at Lilian. "Mr. Guardo does not attend unimportant meetings," she said. "I mean, what would the famous Ethan want me for if it's not something that could benefit the both of us!" He said, causing Ethan to flash a smile at him. "You like benefits." "I believe all businessmen like benefits." Mr. Guardo said with so much confidence, and Ethan believed that he wasn't wrong because, in one way or another, every good

"No. How are you feeling now?" Ethan asked, arching his brows."I'm good." I'm feeling even better now that I see how well the company is thriving!" She said, causing a sly smile to appear on Ethan's face, saying,"I'm glad that your family is no longer on your neck, forcing you to marry anyone." You have the right to have a choice in that!" Rosanna nodded, smiling at his words.Ethan immediately excused himself, leaving Rosanna lost."What's wrong?" She kept asking herself. It was only yesterday that he kissed her and called her his girlfriend in front of everyone. It was only some days ago that he sent her flowers, so what exactly had changed now?She decided to take him some healthy tea. As she got closer to his room, she noticed that the door of his study was open, so she immediately assumed that he was not in his room but in his study.She opened the door properly and said, "I brought you some tea." That's if you'd like it..." She paused halfway, noticing that there was no one s

"Did you tell her that I like lemon cake?" Cersei asked. "No, she's not aware that you're coming!" Ethan said, causing Cersei to nod. "You're one fine fish. What's your name?" Cersei asked, "Rosanna Milma." She responded. "Oh, from the Milma group?" Cersei inquired. "Yes, from there!" Rosanna responded with her eyes fixed on her food. She seemed to be nervous at the dinner table, and Cersei didn't really blame her for it; she knew she had an aura that most times made people uncomfortable around her. "So when do we start to talk about business?" Cersei asked before taking a spoonful of rice into her mouth. "Not during dinner, Cersei, after dinner." Ethan responded. Rosanna found that Ethan was being awkward around her, and for some reason, she just couldn't handle it. "Em... I have to go to the company today; the company needs me to be running smoothly," Rosanna muttered, causing Cersei to almost choke on her phone. After Rosanna left, Cersei scoffed, "The company needs her o

"Welcome..." Rosanna said, trying to sit up while Ethan was still standing by the door, stunned. "Mr. Ethan, we have been waiting for you to get here! Welcome! Please be seated..." A girl in a baby pink gown said. She was with a videographer who already had his camera set. "How did they get in here?" Ethan asked the nurse that was standing beside Rosanna. "My grandmother. She informed the reporters that they might find you here for the numerous questions they've had about you since you revealed your identity to everyone." Rosanna said. Ethan was still confused; he wondered what made Vera, Rosanna's grandmother, think she had that right. "She only wanted to prove that she has a close and good relationship with you," Rosanna added, causing Ethan to let out a long breath. This was how it worked; everybody was always wanting something, and even if he believed Rosanna was not like that, he would be right to believe that Rosanna could die pleasing her family, so she would do whatever w
