(Freya's POV)

"Why is Ethan always pushing me away? Anytime I offer to visit him, he keeps turning me down?" I growled in the quietness of my room, as I couldn't believe that I was desperate to win Ethan's attention.

"Elora"—her image popped in my mind. She claimed that she didn't have anything to do with Ethan.

I was standing in my room, wearing a white nightdress and a white jacket over it. I moved over to the fridge to get a drink for myself as I watched the news.

    EVA"I'm set," I replied, reaching Elora's car and pulling open the side door before getting in with her.She grimaced. "I don't like how Dad is trying to set me up with someone." She fastened her seatbelt as I did the same."You shouldn't take Dad's words to heart," I replied calmly as she inserted the car keys."That's fine. How are you? Have you made up your mind to give me the money to resign from Dallas Group? After all, Ethan might like you," Elora spoke softly as she ignited the engine and drove out of the house.I reclined in my seat and gazed out the car window."I want to repay him, so that I owe him nothing. He has a fiancée, and I don't want to come between them," I said calmly.Elora scoffed. "Nonsense. I figured Freya might have found out the truth. But it's fine. Once I save enough money, I will resign."Elora kept her gaze focused on the road, and the rest of the car ride fell silent.Once we reached the industrial area, my sister slowed her car, and I got out as I saw

    Eva's POVWaking up in my room on a bright Friday morning, I yawned and stretched as I knew that this was the last working day of the week.The Owens Group didn't work on Saturday and my mind raced with the thought of skipping Angelina's birthday party the following day. She had always been a bully and she looked down on me, believing I wasn't up to her standards.Sighing, I made my way into my bathroom and bathed quickly. As I turned on the shower, the cold water cascaded down my body and soothed my tiredness.After my bath, I rushed out of the bathroom and went to find my office clothes in my wardrobe.Once I selected a long-sleeved white shirt and black skirt, I donned it, buttoned my shirt, before moving over to the mirror to stand in front of it and take care of my appearance.Once I was styling my hair and spritzing on my perfume, I grasped my handbag and picked up my phone to see if I had any text messages.There was a text from Jacob.Jacob: [Hello, babe. Good morning. How was

Owen Group has compensated the young lady named Eva Brooks with the whopping sum of 10 million and also promised the public that such an act will not happen again," the female broadcaster on the television screen in my room announced, and my brows furrowed."So Ethan paid Eva compensation for getting abused. But who is the man that she slept with? Why does it feel like Ethan is lying, and h

    (Ethan's POV)Standing in my room, I ran my fingers over my head and tousled my short black hair as I couldn't resist the urge to contact Eva. For some unknown reason, I just longed to hear her voice and to know how she was. And if she had received the transferred money that my dad offered as compensation."Hello," Eva's nervous voice reached my eardrums as she answered my call."How are you doing tonight?" I asked her, moving to sit in the white chair in my room. My heart is thudding in my chest."I am fine, sir. How about you? You left the company on time," Eva said, and I couldn't tell if she was truly worried about me or if she only wanted to know what I was up to. After all, I was the one who called her."I am fine. I am calling to know if you received the transferred money that my dad offered as compensation for what happened to you in my hotel?" I asked, listening to her soft breathing."Yes, I got the money, sir. I want to repay you back as part of the debt that I owe you for

    Eva's POV:"Welcome back, sister," I said, as Elora stepped into the living room. She appeared tired, but she smiled and strode to the couch to take a seat."Thanks, Eva. How was work today?" Elora asked, taking off her shoes before she turned to Mom and Dad and greeted them."Mom, Dad, good evening.""Yeah, welcome, Elora. What kept you so long?" Dad asked, seeing that the time was past 10 p.m.My sister smiled and replied, "Work-related. I had some other work to do, so it delayed me.""What sort of work demands that you work after closing hours?" my father queried, his tone firm, and Elora sighed."Dad, it's the Dallas Group. They have a new subsidiary company, and I had to run some ads for them. Also, I had some other personal work I had to cover," Elora explained tiredly.However, I wondered, "Did Freya purposely delay my sister because of me?" No. That wouldn't be the reason.My sister yawned and made her way to the corridor."Mom, the food smells so nice. I'll be out soon. Let m

    EVA'S POV:When I rang the doorbell, my mother came over and pulled the door to unlock it for me from within."Eva, you are back," Mom said, her lips curled up in a smile as she stepped back for me to enter the living room."Yes, Mom. I am back. Good evening," I greeted her, as the smell of fried plantains and fish stew wafted through my nostrils while I walked into the room."Mom, didn't you go to work today?" I asked her, turning to face her as my tummy growled loudly in hunger. My mother was a great chef, and so she prioritized the cooking herself.Smiling, Mom shut the door and turned to face me. She wore a short blue dress that clung to her skin like a second skin. "I did," her voice came out like a gentle caress in my ear. "But I came back home early. Your Dad is back too. We wanted to discuss something with you."My mind raced, wondering if it was about the money from Ethan's Dad.After my mother finished speaking, the sound of my Dad's footsteps striding into the living room a
