Scarlett’s POV ~

Alaric's silence to my question made me intrigued and concerned. It made me curious about his thoughts and I wondered if he was avoiding the topic.

“Do you have any clue about their past relationship?” I asked, my voice barely audible, a mix of concern and curiosity on my face.

I swallowed hard as I awaited Alaric's response.

“You were once a close friend to Ethan right? And you both attended the same college. You should know those he was acquainted with. What was his relationship with Dylan?”

“They were once friends. I mean, they were best friends before I stepped into the picture. Something happened and they stopped being so close like they once were.” Alaric explained, his voice guarded as if he was revealing more than he intended to.

My brows creased slightly as I leaned against the wall, my curiosity piqued to the hint of mystery surrounding Dylan and Ethan's past.

    Ethan’s POV~I stared at the painting Eric made of Scarlett and Emily, his twin sister. His eyes shone with innocence, a mixture of excitement and Nativity, unaware of the secrets that lay hidden beneath the surface. My mind reeled as I struggled to process the coincidence. Only if he knew she was his mother and the little girl was his sister.“Why did you decide to paint them?

    Ethan's POV~ The sunlight peeked through the curtains of my luxurious mansion, casting a warm glow in the room. The alarm blares to life, shattering the silence. My eyes fluttered open, my gaze settling on the white ceiling, adorned with mouldings and a beautiful chandelier. A deep sigh escaped my lips as I sat upright, my legs swung to the other side of the bed. After putting in the alarm, I planted a firm foot on the ground and stretched. My eyes bored into my reflection in the mirror which reflected a mixture of exhaustion and concern. Last night was hectic. I had a late night filming schedule and some promotional events for my upcoming movie. And even after the event, I had to attend a packed dinner meeting with my team to discuss marketing strategies. I exhaled once more as I stared at my outfit, one I wore to the event last night. I was so exhausted that I barely had the energy to change into my robe. “Thinking about something?” Jasmine's voice snatched me out of my rev
