"Ethan... don't touch me there." It was so embarrassing that his hands moved so freely over my naked body. The sound of his breathing was heard which made my heart pound even more. "Sarah, I can't. "You're my patient." I bit my lip. I was indeed Ethan's patient. After the betrayal of my husband who chose to save another woman over me, I was injured and needed help. Ethan who is my husband's step-uncle is taking care of me, doing everything with his attitude that makes my heart pound. "Sarah, don't worry, I will help you."

"Who are you?" I looked up at the strange men who had taken off my blindfold after tying me to a wooden chair. "What are you doing to me?" I looked down at myself, bound tightly by the rope. I shook my body violently to get out of there but to no avail. My efforts were in vain and only ended in laughter for them, which made me stop moving, raising my gaze to them, staring frantically at the terrifying strangers in front of me. One of them looked at me with a scornful smile. He tilted his head to look at me, saying, "Don't try too hard; it won't do any good. You'd better be quiet until we tell you to scream." He warned me with his face that had a stitched scar on his eye. My heart was beating wildly. What was happening? I stared at them, then moved my eyes, sweeping around, exploring what the place was. That place is precisely like an abandoned warehouse, but why did they bring me to this place? With my hands tied and like I was being held hostage? Taken hostage? I looked straight at the men, who did look like pieces of bad guys. I looked back at myself, now with a sense of panic. "What the hell is going on? Who are you, and what are you doing to me?" I voiced hysterically, moving my body and almost crying. He replied indifferently. "To get a ransom from Alex, your husband, of course." He looked at me intently. Every movement of his eyes was disturbing. "Call him immediately. Tell him that his wife is currently being held hostage." His breath wafted towards me, and the smell of alcohol stung my nose. "Good boss!" exclaimed one of them, who I noticed immediately took out his phone, took a picture of me and called someone. "Did you see? If you want her safe, send 20 million dollars and put it in the timesquare this afternoon at four." He spoke in a haughty tone, making me tighten my hands. "What did you say?" the expression on his face changed. He looked surprised and came closer to me. "Tell him something, he said that he won't send the money. He thought I was joking and played a prank on him. What?" the man made an annoyed face. What was Alex doing? Why did he ignore me? Why did he say that to them? My heart ached until it felt tight in my chest. "Tell him to save you." the stranger holding the phone snapped at me loudly. Then afterwards, the man with the scar near his eye came closer to me and grabbed my chin so hard, I'm sure my nails were imprinted on my skin. I whimpered louder and louder as his hand pressed harder and harder on my chin. The man took over the phone and pressed something before bringing it closer to me. "Scream!" His booming voice made me cringe in fear." "Alex, help me!" I screamed in panic. "Save me, Alex, please save me, I'm scared..." Ultimately, I cried, showing my fear and hoping he would come soon. "Whatever you want to do to her, I don't care." My eyes stared with wide-open retinas at the familiar voice speaking through the speakerphone so nonchalantly. "I don't want to spend that much money on him. "It's no use." He ignored me. My body shook. I felt my spine weaken and made my body limp and numb. "What is this?" the man screamed, but I no longer paid attention. "You said she was his wife? Why is he reacting like this?!" he sounded furious and kicked the other man until he collapsed and bent over. I was still in a state of disbelief, but I couldn't ignore their voices as they added to my pain. I saw the man crouching down, then held his gaze. "Looks like we took the wrong hostage, sir. I think he loves his wife more than his mistress." I turned to the man immediately. So they were planning to bring that woman to this place, too? The woman who was close to Alex? Hearing that, the pain in my chest grew even more. "Bring that woman here right now! Take her!" the man shouted, which made my body jerk, but more than that, I still couldn't move on from what the man had just said. Something like squeezing her and making me want to bend my body because of the pain. Shortly after, I saw the woman being thrown while screaming over there. "What are you doing to me?!" The woman named Emily roared and kept struggling, making it difficult for them. "Now, quickly contact her." The man called the boss and gave an order, and immediately, one of them gave him his cell phone. "You don't want your wife. Now let's see if you will react the same after hearing this woman's voice?" The man approached the woman. As soon as the phone was dirty, she screamed even louder. "Alex! Alex.... help me, please save me," she cried hysterically, even though they barely touched her. "Emily!" Alex's panicked-sounding voice made my body relax even more, my lips and chin trembling as I realised what was happening before me. What I saw was that the call was disconnected afterwards. There was no answer from Alex, which annoyed the big men, but shortly after, Alex appeared. I stared at the man with many feelings raging in my chest. There were various pains until I stared at him, who appeared with a black bag that was not too big. He walked and threw it unceremoniously at them, then ran towards Emily. I averted my face from his gaze and looked the other way, hiding the pain and hurt I felt because Alex chose that woman over me. Before I was done with my worries, Alex said. "Are you okay, Emely? They didn't hurt you, did they?" I stared with my body shaking violently at Alex, who embraced the woman's body while she nodded and cried in his arms. Shouldn't I be the one there as his wife? Then why is she the one in his arms? "Alex, did you come for her and not me?..." I couldn't continue, our eyes met, but all I saw was that she was indifferent to me. He turned away from me as if not seeing me. "My business is done here. I'll take her." He then went out with that woman. My eyelids opened wide, watching him move away from there, leaving me. "Alex... Alex! What are you doing? Don't leave me here, Alex!" the account shouted, but he did not turn around and look at me. I heard the raucous laughter of the kidnappers appear afterwards, then gathered in front of me, blocking my view from seeing Alex, who had left the doorway. Their laughter made my crying even more pathetic. "Are you this stupid? He ditched you, so what did you call him for?" the man with the wound in his eye spoke, then placed his hand sweeping across my face and down to my chest. "Since you're already here, how about we have fun?" The man approached me, ignoring my horrified stare at him, and then the others moved to untie the bonds on my body and hands. Just as the bonds were untied, I tried to escape by running, but my weak legs made me fall there. "Where are you going?" The man caught me quickly, then pulled my hair again and made me whimper and fall from the pull. "I told you, let's have some fun first." I gasped, screaming as the man forcefully ripped off my dress, tearing it to reveal my stomach down to my thighs, where my panties were visible. "Stop it! What are you doing? Stop it!" I yelled at him. The man laughed as he was greeted again by those there who were looking at me with dirty eyes. "I knew you were so beautiful and seductive. I don't understand why you left for that woman earlier." The man moved closer to me, tucking his head into my nape and trying to kiss me. I tried desperately to dodge and kept dodging until I got the chance to kick his private parts. "Damn it!" the man screamed and removed his hand from my hair. I quickly ran away, but behind me, the men were chasing me again quickly. I turned my gaze to the front and tried to find a way. The only thing I could see was an open window at the end, but seeing the clouds from that window meant that this building was on a reasonably high floor. "Don't come any closer, or I'll jump!" I yelled at them, with me cornered near a large open window with no glass installed. "Hey, come on, why are you jumping?" They responded in a huff, then tried to approach. They seemed to ignore my words. I gulped down the water in my throat, looking at them quizzically. Maybe jumping from this place was better than me having to let them play with my body. I closed my eyes. Then jumped. "Hey, stop it!" I hear their screams faintly in my ears. As I jumped and the wind passed through my falling body following the force of gravity, the pain in my chest appeared. It felt like it was being torn and torn apart, as well as stinging at the same time. In one moment, I was betrayed by the man I loved, and I was also abused and almost raped by them. My heart was broken. I opened my eyes, seeing what was happening one last time while hoping that all this pain would disappear once I reached the bottom.Sarah's POV“What do you think of the dress?” I twirled before Lira, who sat casually in her chair, nibbling on something.Lira’s eyes carefully assessed me from head to toe with a serious expression. Then, she motioned with her hand for me to turn around and show the other side. Only after doing so she nodded approvingly. “You look perfect,” she praised me with a satisfied smile.She got up from her seat and walked over to me, her hands gently adjusting a few strands of my hair that were out of place, making me look slightly untidy.“There’s no one more beautiful than you,” she effortlessly complimented me again.I chuckled softly at her words. Then, I turned to face the mirror, seeing myself wrapped in a white mermaid-style satin gown that beautifully accentuated my figure.The dress looked stunning with a long skirt and an elegantly open top. I truly loved it, but I couldn’t help feeling a little self-conscious. “But don’t you think it’s a bit too much?” I asked.From behind me, Ly
Ethan's POV After finishing our meal together, Sarah once again disappeared from sight. I’m sure she’s busy with Edmund now. That little boy has stolen his mother from me. No matter what or where Edmund is her priority, I feel my position has been shifted."Sir, would you like me to prepare some tea?" Emy asked me.I shook my head, intending to return to work for a while, but I changed my mind this time. "No need. Have you seen where Sarah is?""Miss Sarah is in Master Edmund's room, sir. She's putting him to sleep," Emy replied promptly.I figured she'd be there. I remember telling her that Edmund should get used to sleeping in his room. After all, he's old enough. But Sarah said she couldn't bear it and would stay with him until he fell asleep.I then moved toward Edmund's room, right next to mine. "Is he asleep?" I asked Sarah as soon as I entered.I hugged her tightly from behind while gazing at our sleeping son. I rested my chin between Sarah’s shoulder and neck and kissed her s
Ethan povAs soon as they finished eating together, Sarah did not show herself again, to the point that I am sure she must also be busy with Edmund this time. The little boy stole his mother from me, so now, whatever it is and wherever it is, Edmund is her priority, and my position has shifted."Master want me to prepare tea?" Emy asked me.I shook my head. I had originally planned to go back to work for a while, but this time, I canceled my intention. "No need. Where did you see Sarah?""Miss Sarah is in Mr. Edmund's room, sir. she was putting him to sleep." Emy replied immediately.I thought she must be there. I remember telling her to get used to Edmund going to his own bedroom; after all, Edmund was old enough, but Sarah said she couldn't bear it and would stay with him until Edmund fell asleep.I then moved there, walking to the room next to mine. "Is he asleep?" I asked Sarah just as I entered Edmund's room.I walked up to her even though I hugged him from behind. Looking at our
Ethan povAfter Sarah went downstairs to the inn, she needed to stay until her condition completely recovered after giving birth. I was in the room with her still holding her hand and stroking her gently."Do I look ugly?" she suddenly asked about it.I moved my eyebrows up silently, smiling, and shook my head slowly, denying her words. "It's not at all that you always look beautiful in my eyes, yesterday, today, and whenever; it doesn't matter what happens."My eyes looked at her with a gentle glint, and then my hand moved slowly, caressing her hair. Sarah, who just a few hours ago faced the Biggest Thing in her life, looks very beautiful in my eyes right now. You could say she was the most beautiful woman I had ever met. No woman could match her beauty; she was perfect for me."Does it feel so painful?" I looked at her with a fixed gaze and rubbed her cheeks slowly.The woman lying weakly on the bed shook her head slightly. She still looked helpless. "I'm not sure what it would be l
Ethan's POV"Sarah, what's going on? What happened?" I panicked and rushed into the bathroom after hearing her cry. I found Sarah bracing herself against the wall, visibly in pain, stretching her arms.I quickly turned off the faucet, grabbed a towel, and wrapped it around her. She clung to me, wrapping her arms around my shoulders. "I think I'm having contractions... I think it's time.""Time to give birth?" I looked at her, shocked.Even though we had prepared everything and eagerly anticipated this day, I still felt nervous when it finally arrived. I had researched what to do when Sarah went into labor, preparing myself as best as possible.But what you think and face are two very different things. My mind went utterly blank, overwhelmed with panic and fear. I repeatedly took deep breaths to calm myself as I helped Sarah get dressed."Okay, we’re heading to the hospital now. I’m taking you there." Once she was dressed, I lifted her and carried her downstairs, gently placing her in
Sarah's POVEthan immediately adjusted everything accordingly when I heard that we were having a boy. He called the decorators to prepare the room with a baby boy theme.Blue, white, and yellow dominated his chosen colors for the room's design. "Do you like it?" he glanced at me as I stood at the doorway.Meanwhile, Ethan was inside, moving around to arrange everything. He forbade me from entering, saying the smell of the paint was still too strong and could bother my senses. He was right. Even from a distance, I could still see the pungent paint fumes.I smiled and nodded. "Yes, I love it. I'm sure our little one will love it too. If he knew his dad prepared all of this for him, he’d be so happy."During my pregnancy, Ethan seemed happy, but his emotions during the first and second trimesters were quite complex.
