REINAI know for sure that since I returned to Ethan, a lot of things were shifting between us and we were actually getting to know each other more and that was blissful, but what could have never crossed my mind was the fact that Ethan would gift his company to me.He didn't even stutter or double think it as he was announcing it to everyone in the company.And yes, he made it official.He had done the transfer of documents and everything behind my back, I could never have guessed it.Tears were in my eyes as I stared at the entire members and staffs of this company. There were a lot of happy faces, skeptical faces too that seemed to ask if I was equal to the task to be given such an amazing company.But the only one that I stared at was he look of pride and satisfaction in Ethan's face.It was like he was doing something good for the first time in his life and he felt great about it. He seemed really proud of himself."Before we end this meeting, I would like you to sign this Baby."
REINA"Insulting much. Is that the way you were taught to talk to an elder?" I rolled my eyes as I wondered who would even be talking to me this way on the phone in the first place.Are people mad?"Before we start the argument on who is the elder and who is insulting anyone here, can you tell me who I'm speaking with?" Another silence emanated from the other end of the line and I glared at my phone. I was about hitting the end call button when the person finally decided to speak up."It's Ravenna's father. You do know Ravenna right?" Irritation filled my face as I glared at the phone like the man was right in front of me. If he probably was standing right in front of me, he would have walked right out immediately with the way my face was scrunched up.The phone wasn't on speaker but I'm guessing that Ethan had saw the look on my face and came closer, placing his hands on my waist, he leaned in closer and put his head on my shoulders."Of course, I know Ravenna. I'm not sure I would b
REINAUnable to sleep as I tossed from side to die, my phone suddenly began buzzing and I stood up almost immediately. Checking the caller ID, it was unknown number and I wondered who would be calling me by that time of the night?I really hope that Ravenna's father isn't the one on the line because I would definitely cuss this man.I picked up the call and walked to the toilet, so as not to disturb Ethan who was asleep."Hello." I called into the speaker and the voice that filtered out of the speaker was one that I wasn't expecting at all."Reina." The entire world paused for that second as I stared back into the room."Bruce, is that you?" I questioned just to be sure that I wasn't just hearing things. I had to be sure that I wasn't hallucinating."Yes, Reina. It is." I didn't know why he was calling at this point of the night but it had to be important.Bruce wasn't the kind of person that just calls people anytime he feels like and this would be the first time he was ever callin
REINA."Where you going through my phone, Ethan?" Realization just dawned on me because it seemed like Bruce had been calling me and I hadn't been seeing those calls.Trying to relate it with the fact that he said I blocked his first line, I squinted my eyes and peered at Ethan.He was mute and staring at me."Reina, can we not have this conversation? You were talking to Bruce in the parlour at midnight and that's okay. I'm not even mad." Now that's a lie. His fist were folded like he wanted to punch someone and he was hitting his teeth but I have no use for his anger now."We are having this conversation, Ethan. We are! Were you going through my phone? That's what I want to know." I half yelled and he stared at me apologetically before looking downwards."I did." He simply stated and that was my cue to get offended because what the fuck?"Did you initially block Bruce?" I honestly don't even want it to be true because I'm not even she how I would react to that."I did." I used my han
REINAYou can call me a creep and a stalker but to be very honest, the waat Ethan left this morning had me shaking in my boots. I had seen different sides of Ethan, his angry and his happy sides, his naive and knowledgeable sides but what I saw today was unlike every thing I've seen.He was angry but he was bottling it up, it was almost like when you put mentos into coke and lock the bottle immediately. It would wait till anyone tries to open it for it to explode.After the driver had dropped Andrew at school, I had to track Ethan's GPS to know exactly where he was supposed to be at that early in the morning because he hadn't even tried to explain anything.It's crazy how tables turn because right now? I'm the one that is meddling into his privacy to know what the hell was up to.From the static position of the Red dot on my laptop, he wasn't moving, he was seated in a place but the location had me delving directly into my car immediately.He was at an abandoned beach, who was he meet
REINA"Hold on, what?" I stood up from my squatting position as I sent my hands to my waist.Is he telling the truth or he's just saying this to guilt trip me? Come to think of it, Ethan has never ever guilt tripped me. If he wanted to corner me, he would do it straightforwardly just the same way he pushed me into working in his company just so he got me back and i must commend him because he did get me."I know it's sounding totally unbelievable but he contacted me first. And not to even make it sound like I'm exaggerating or anything but he kind of threatened me. He somewhat mentioned how I brainwashed you into getting back together with me and how I wasn't healthy for you. He said a lot of things and then we both got into a heated argument. He—" I held my hands up because somehow, I felt like the more he talked, the more i was loosing my mind."I'm sorry, Ethan but I'll have to ask you to stop right there." He nodded slowly and locked eyes with me while my head and brain ran a 50 m
REINAWe spent few hours more on the beach since we both didn't have much to do for the day anyway and Andrew wasn't going to be back until it's 3pm. I made a mental note to confront Bruce on what Ethan had told me."Don't you think it's time we go home? You still have to over the company's files so you would be practically in before you resume work." He suggested and I nodded while we both walked back to the car with hands intertwined."I just remember that I'd be heading the company. My heart just does these drum rolls whenever I remember or think of it. It's not even funny." I placed my hands on my chest to sow the dramatic expression that was flooding me and he chuckled."I've seen you working in your office and you always aced it. See this as a promotion and you'd be able to handle it, besides, I'm always here. You don't have to worry about anything." I smiled broadly and turned to face him."I'm seeing it as a promotion but it's no even helping me at all. The only thing that my
REINAThe rest of the day was spent with Ethan filling me in with the latest design, the one that was at the top of fashion design of the week and I remembered when I was a worker under him and my team struggled to meet design of the week.Beautiful times.Well, it had to end once Andrew was back from school because we had to keep the little champ occupied. Ethan was moe than available for that anyways so I didn't stress much. We all played till it was almost evening when my phone started ringing again."Your phone is beeping." Ethan informed as he passed the over to me without even looking at the caller ID."Who is it?" I asked and he just shrugged as he approached me and handed the phone over.This man is taking this privacy thing too seriously, almost too seriously and I guess we'll have to address that as well."It's Bruce." I said immediately I saw the number and he just shrugged. I hadn't even saved the contact but this was exactly what happened when someone was at the back of
