ETHAN'S MANSION 2

Emma's POV

But before then. A call came in for Ethan. He excused himself and moved aside to answer his call. As he was busy talking on the phone. I, on the other hand, was looking around the living room.

As soon as he hung up the call. He came to me and told me that something had come up and he needed to go to his office. And that he would be back soon. I nodded and he gently kissed me. So he left. "Bye". I said.

He waved his hand and left.

Roselina came to me immediately and asked if she could take me to Elisabeth. I nodded, and we walked forward to a glass door. It opened on getting close to it. I guess this house is smart.

After the wide big glass door was another leaving area. So big and beautiful. You can say second living area. Fully furnished. The interior deco did an amazing job here.

Then, there is another enormous glass wall and door that leads to the back of the house.

I could see the beauty of the pool area right from inside the house. Then I saw Elizabeth and Genna. Roselina turned to me. "Ma'am there they are. You can proceed from here".

"Can I? ". I asked her. She smiled and said to me

"Yes ma'am. It's your house". And she left shaking her head.

I walked to the glass door and it opened by itself. Wow. Amazing. I am enjoying this beauty and luxury. Then I heard Elisabeth's laughter with Ginna.

They were enjoying themselves.

They saw me and waved at me, asking me to join them. I walked to the lounge instead. The lounge is beside the big pool. I sat down on one of the luxurious sofas there. It was so comfy.

Elizabeth and Genna also joined me there and sat down. Immediately, a man walked to us and greeted me. He was smiling. I guessed he must have been told. Roselina must have told them.

"Welcome madame. Welcome small madame. Would you prefer I serve your breakfast here, or will you come to the main dining? " He asked after the greeting.

"Thank you.... ". I paused.

"Gerald ma'am. Gerald is my name.". He said.

"Ok, Gerald. We will have our breakfast here. Thank you. " He nodded and left.

"Wow, girl. I am so jealous of you. All this luxury for you to enjoy? Wow. This is great". Said Genna.

She is going crazy. But I can't blame her. Even though we work in a five-star hotel. It is nothing to compare to the luxury in this house.

"You can say it again Genna. I can feel you"

"You can feel me, right? Wait. We have not seen your room yet." Genna pouted.

"We shall do that after our breakfast". I replied to her.

Ethan's POV

I finished signing the documents I came to sign. And I handed them to Paul. He is the company's general manager. As he was about to leave he halted and turned back to me.

"Sir, I forgot to ask you about the Omega company. Are we letting it go? There are so many other buyers surfacing now."

"Oh yes. About that. We shall proceed with payment right away. I am no longer single you know. I am married now". I replied grinning, flashing him my white teeth.

"Wow. Congratulations, sir. I am so happy for you, sir. That's great". The man is happy for me. I could see it in the way he smiled

"Thank you". I replied.

"Ok, sir. I will take my leave now"

As he was leaving, Liam was walking in. "Eh," Liam greeted.

"Eh, I was about to call man. I need to rush back home. Emma is waiting for me. Is there anything you want us to talk about? ". I asked Liam

"Just to congratulate you man. You did it". He hugged me.

"Yes Liam. I did it. I am a married man now. That company is ours.".

After I pulled back from the hug.

"Yes, but you do know that it's purely business, right?". He asked.

I do understand what he meant. He is talking about my Contract Marriage. Honestly, I don't see it that way anymore, but I can't discuss that with him now.

"I just signed the document for the new hotel we just acquired. I need you to go there and have a talk with the hotel manager. I'm still thinking about if I want to retain him. But, until then. Let them continue their work for now". I explained to Liam and he nodded.

I walked past him, heading to the door, but before I reached the door, his voice stopped me.

"You didn't answer my question, Ethan. I am only looking out for you. I knew what you went through in the past, and I don't want you to make any more mistakes". He said walking close to me.

I turned to look at him. My two hands were tucked inside my pants pockets. Without giving him the reply he expects to hear from me. I spoke giving him instructions on what to do instead.

"I might not come back to the office again today. Please. Start working on the project. And call me"

I know Liam has questions to ask. I know. I could see it in his eyes. But I was not ready to answer his questions. So I ignored it.

I know I am not different from a man in love right now. This is something that I can not tell anyone. It is embarrassing. But, I can't deny the fact that I am happy now. My life is changing.

This will be the first time I feel like my past doesn't matter and it makes me feel good. I don't know how Emma sees me. But, I know how I feel about her. And, it is a risk I am willing to take.

There is this feeling I can't explain. It's new and it feels good. If this is love. I want to give it a chance. I can only hope that it works in my favour. I do hope so.

So I left my office.
