{Third person's pov}

Three days later... Lily had exactly one mission.

"Today," she declared dramatically as she marched into the breakfast room, "neither of you are allowed to make business calls."

Ethan looked up from his tablet. "I have a meeting."

"You don't." Lily said and Ethan replied. "I do."

Lily smiled sweetly before snatching the tablet out of his hands. "You did."

Natasha burst into laughter. "Lily!" Ethan groaned.

"What? She looked completely unapologetic. "The Chairman can survive

  • His brother's obsession   Chapter. 76

    {Third person's pov}Golden rays of sunlight filtered through the curtains, bathing the bedroom in a warm glow.Natasha stirred awake slowly and for a moment, she simply lay there, enjoying the comforting warmth surrounding her.Ethan's arm was still draped around her waist, his breathing was calm and steady and a small smile tugged at her lips.Carefully, she turned to face him, his eyes were already open. "Good morning," he whispered."You were awake?" She asked and he replied. "For a while." She smiled softly before resting her hand against his chest.Neither of them spoke for a few peaceful moments, It was the kind of silence that felt comforting rather than awkward.Then... A thought crossed Natasha's mind and she frowned slightly. "Ethan...""Hm?" She looked into his eyes. "Last night..." His eyebrows lifted. "You didn't..." She hesitated. "...use protection."He remained quiet for a moment and then... A small smile appeared on his face. "I know."She blinked. "You... know?"He

  • His brother's obsession   Chapter. 75

    {Third person's pov}Ethan sat in his office, staring at the documents spread across his desk.He hadn't read a single word in the last fifteen minutes, his mind wasn't on business, it was on Natasha.The last few weeks had been difficult, the argument, the silence and the nightmare, the conversation about therapy.Although they had found each other again... He knew there was still an invisible weight between them.He wanted, if only for one evening... To remind his wife that before they were two people struggling with difficult decisions...They were simply Ethan and Natasha, husband and wife.He picked up his phone. "Arthur.""Yes, sir?" The voice came and Ethan continued. "I need your help."Arthur immediately grabbed his notepad. "What would you like me to arrange?""I want tonight to be completely free, no meetings, no calls, no security following us unless absolutely necessary."Arthur smiled knowingly. "A date?"Ethan smiled to himself. "...A proper one."That afternoon... Nata

    {Third person's pov}The Ramos mansion was silent.Moonlight spilled through the bedroom windows, casting silver shadows across the room.Natasha slept peacefully, curled against Ethan's side, his arm rested protectively around her waist.For the first time in days... They had fallen asleep in each other's embrace but Ethan's mind refused to rest...."Daddy!" A tiny voice echoed through a sunlit garden and Ethan turned around.Standing a few feet away was a little girl, she couldn't have been older than four.Long dark hair, bright brown eyes and she wore a little white dress and held a stuffed dinosaur tightly against her chest.She giggled. "Daddy! Catch me!" His heart melted.He laughed, a carefree laugh he hadn't heard from himself in years and chased after her across the garden.She squealed happily. "You'll never catch me!""Oh, really?" He scooped her into his arms, lifting her high into the air.She burst into laughter, again and again. "Daddy!"She wrapped her tiny arms arou

    {Third person's pov}Three days passed, the argument was over or at least...Neither of them spoke about it again.The mansion looked exactly the same, breakfast was still served at eight and Ethan still left for Ramos Media every morning.Natasha still left for her photoshoots.From the outside... Nothing had changed but inside...Everything had."Good morning." Ethan smiled softly as he entered the dining room and Natasha looked up from her coffee."Morning." She smiled back, a small smile, the kind that reached her lips... But not her eyes.He noticed, of course he noticed, he noticed everything about her.the chef quietly served breakfast before excusing himself, sensing the unusual silence between the couple.Usually, breakfast was filled with teasing, Natasha stealing food from Ethan's plate and Ethan pretending to be offended.Laughter echoing through the dining room.Today... The only sound was the clinking of cutlery, Ethan looked at her several times.Each time, he wanted to

    {Third person's pov}Maya looked through the living room window as a familiar black Rolls-Royce pulled into her driveway.She sighed quietly. "It didn't even take him two hours."Natasha, curled up on the sofa with a mug of untouched tea, looked toward the window. "He shouldn't have come."Maya gave her a knowing smile. "He was always going to."A moment later, the doorbell rang and Maya glanced at Natasha. "Do you want me to tell him you're not here?"Natasha lowered her eyes. "...No."Maya nodded before walking to the front door and as soon as she opened it, Ethan stood there.His tie was gone and the sleeves of his white shirt were rolled up, his hair was slightly messy, as though he'd run his hands through it countless times.Most noticeable of all... His eyes were red. "I know she's here."Maya folded her arms. "She is.""Can I see her?" Maya studied him for a long moment."If you're here to continue the argument, you can leave.""I'm not... I'm here because I hurt my wife." Maya

    {Third person's pov}The mansion had never felt so quiet.Usually, mornings in the Ramos household began with laughter over breakfast.Today... Silence echoed through every hallway.Ethan hadn't slept, every time he closed his eyes, he saw Natasha walking away from him the previous night.He had replayed the conversation a hundred times, he wished he could take back his words not because they weren't true... But because of how much they had hurt her.The aroma of freshly brewed coffee drifted through the kitchen.Natasha stood by the counter in one of Ethan's oversized shirts, quietly preparing breakfast.Dark circles rested beneath her eyes, she hadn't slept either, she heard footsteps behind her and she knew exactly who it was. "Good morning, Sunshine..."His voice was cautious, she didn't answer. Instead, she continued slicing fruit and Ethan slowly walked closer."Natasha..."Still no response, he reached for her wrist and she gently but firmly pulled it away.His heart sank. "I j

    {Third person's pov}She took a deep breath and nodded, "Okay." For some reason, Ethan looked relieved.He grabbed his keys from the table and then looked back at her, "Come on."The two walked through the quiet hallways of the estate, neither of them spoke much, Natasha still wasn't used to this v

    {Third person's pov}If Evan had come home angry, slammed doors, shouted, Natasha would have known exactly what it was.Instead, he smiled. He brought her coffee the next morning. He kissed her forehead before leaving.He asked how she slept. And somehow, that felt worse.But wasn't it his habit? H

    {Third person's pov}Evan didn’t slow down as he walked. Natasha followed, her steps quieter against the polished floor, her awareness sharper than before. His hand brushed briefly against her back as they entered the elevator, light, controlled.“Stay close,” he said as the doors closed. Silence p

    {Third person's pov}The apartment felt different when she came back.Not quieter, just… heavier.Natasha slipped off her heels near the door, the faint echo of the party still clinging to her skin, her hair, the fabric of the dress she hadn’t changed out of.
