My Date, My Boss, My Step-brother! Chapter 142: The broken empire
Ethan's POV I hated dealing with business calls, but right now the only thing I could do was to dummy immerse myself in work.“Yeah you can tweak the angle,” I said as I rubbed my temple. “Make it personal, not corporate. Send it back by—” A violent pounding on my door distracts me from whatever I wanted to say. "Ethan Blackwood, NYPD! Open the door!” The shout al loud that it made my heart bang and the phone nearly slipped from my grip.What the fuck was the police doing here?“What the hell?” I muttered as Lena’s voice was becoming more distant .“Ethan, you there?” I ended the call but before I could open the button the door burst open. What the fuck! that costs a whole lot of money.Then a whole SWAT team in black tactical gear invaded my freaking sanctuary with their laser dots moving across my chest, the way they held their guns made it feel as if they were trying to busy up a terrorist and not me.But I was Ethan Blackwood after all, I shoved the thought aside since this wa
My Date, My Boss, My Step-brother! Chapter 141: Ties that bind
I feel utterly and completely weightless, I stuffledmto open my eyes but the stroke scent of cheap antiseptic brought me back to life.I looked down to see an IV needle pricking my arm, I since at the intrusion, I hated needles and anything of that sort, I turned to see monitor beeping.The bed was scratchy and my head was still banging, I panicked instantly as I realised that jeans in a hospital.How did I get here? What happened to me?The last thing I saw was that god awful headline, I remember ed how my body betrayed me and my heart started racing as the monitor beeping spiked, and I try to sit up, but my arms trembled because I was weak as usual.I heard a rustling sound and I turned to see my boss, William Carson in a chair beside me, his disheveled, his shirt was rumbled and the suit jacket was draped over the armrest, tie loosened making it seem as if he has been here for hours.He looked very worried but as he notices my opening my eyes, his head immediately snapped up.“Sop
My Date, My Boss, My Step-brother! Chapter 140: Sophie's fight for redemption.
Sophie's POVI was killing it at this job... I knew I was because Williams treated me like I practically popped gold, and for th first time in my life I saw someone that was somehow like a father figure to me.I guess it was too early to say that since I just met the man, but there was something about him that was just too comforting.So I could confidently said that there weeks ago, I walked in here as a nobody with a scandal marking her and now, I guess I am just Sophie Carter, William’s indispensable secretary, or so I tell myself as I rub my stinging eyes.My blazer was insanely right making me feel so very much dizzy, I have been suffering from a sickness I couldn't name.Because I didn't know what the hell was happening to me.I was always dizzy, hungry exhausted and stressed, sometimes when I feel like was extremely tired and wanted to fall and break slept, I could remind myself that I couldn't fail.Simply because this job is my proof I am more than the Blackwood’s disgraced e
My Date, My Boss, My Step-brother! Chapter 139: Ethan's conviction
Ethan's POV I wanted to kill Rachel.I should have but unfortunately you couldn't go around killing people, no matter how much they deserve it.But I did my own part in making her life freaking miserable, it first started with blocking all her credit cards I got an ear full from her but I. likdnf care less.All he had left was what her precious daddy gives her and knowing Robert he isn't keen in letting his 'hard earned' money.But when she saw I wasn't budging, the manipulative tactics started, she said how sorry she was and how she would fix it but then it switched to her screaming and shouting.I couldn't care less Next was Alex, the bike stupid motherfucker, the warning I have him the first time wasn't enough, but he had to continue helping Rachel.The guy I hired to rough him up didn't do enough for me, but all I know was that he wasn't ever going to get a job again.He was gone.And for my father and Callahan... I would deal with them when all this has gone down.My tie was as
My Date, My Boss, My Step-brother! Chapter 138: New jobs and hush money
William Carson’s office is a warm and homely, it was a stark contrast to Ethan's high stake high budget office.I internally face palmed myself as I felt bad for comparing this place to Blackwood's corp.The only thing that looked grand was the very expensive book stacks on the shelf, and a framed photo of him in a suit looking way younger.There wasn't any family photo in sight, I wonder why since he looked old enough to have kids.He smiled and then gestured to a chair across from his desk. “Take a seat, Sophie,” he said in his strangely calming voice.There was a way he was slouching, slightly mirroring mine when I was very exhausted, I brushed it off trying to see it as me being very nervous.I sat on the soft leather chair as I closed my eyes for a split second, offering a silent prayer to all the gods in heaven—Christian, Muslim, pagan, any who will listen—Please, do not let me jinx this.This is my shot, Do not let me screw it up. My palms are sweaty, my resume a crumpled shie
My Date, My Boss, My Step-brother! Chapter 137: Not so new beginings
It's been less than a day since I got the eviction notice and from the stern look on my landlords face, I knew he was serious.I wouldn't be surprised if Rachel has paid him to evict me, at this point nothing could catch me off guard.But enough of the conspiracy theory, now I was packing my whole life into cardboard boxes.I was too young to be facing this kind of problem, but who could I cry to? I had no job, no savings, no one to call.I knew if I called Ethan he would get me an apartment as soon as possible but my feminine pride would rather be homeless or living undera bridge than accept money from a filthy Blackwood.Yes! I called them filthy, and I will do it again.But the only thing I kept getting from Ethan was him constantly bugging my phone with text.My phone binged and I figured it was another text from Ethan using an unknown number. “Sophie, please” I deleted it fast as I shoved clothes into a box, it was just jeans, hoodies, the stupid dress from the gala, torn and us
