She wrung up her dramatic influence by leaning into him and nesting her head along his shoulder. Her hair hid her face from his view but as he murmured comforting words and pet her back, he knew that she was up to no good. If he had to hazard a guess, she was making mocking faces at the women if the looks of pure hatred she was receiving was any indication. Intently rolling his eyes he replied back to her in his best outraged voice, "What do they mean that you are a gold digger?" I was the one who fell in love with you at first sight!

    The couple made their way through the large double doors and into the entrance hall of the venue. Scarlet glanced around and to others it might have seemed like she was looking around in awe, but Ethan knew she was analyzing it as possible inspiration for her business ventures. Their arrival had not gone unnoticed and many people rushed to see who the secretive new bride was. As the group closed in, Scarlet made a show of hiding behind him with wide eyes. Ethan kept his expression neutral before remembering his role and giving her a concerned look. He had to hand it to her; she was a wonderful actress, and he would have to work hard to match her.A couple of Ethan's business associates showed up and he found himself separated from Scarlet. He had already told her that everyone was to be doubted minus his assistant. He had been dealing with traitors and attempted hostile takeovers since he took over the business for his grandfather. His grandfather was worried for him and had also made

  • The CEO's Competent Contract Wife   Ethan and Scarlet Enter the Gala

    As the fancy car Ethan had called for from his personal collection made its way down the road, Ethan glanced a glance at the woman sitting next to him. She sat there, legs crossed as she tapped away on a tablet she had pulled out from her purse. If he had to guess, she was probably going over proposals and reports submitted by the members of her self made clan. Ethan always found it impressive how she could juggle so many roles and responsibilities despite her difficult upbringing. As if sensing his gaze, Scarlet lifted her head and turned to glance at him, one eyebrow raised in silent question. Deciding to be mischievous he simply smirked and shrugged, shameless in having been caught staring.Normally, he projected himself in a manner that came across as cold and uncaring, his motivations hidden behind blurry eyes and a blank face. Even when he was at home he rarely had company and would never have his family over. He therefore spent his nights often in quiet solace the only spared t

  • The CEO's Competent Contract Wife   Ethan and Scarlet Get Ready for the Gala

    A week after their scandalous announcement, Ethan’s secretary Julian had appeared at their house with the usual mail and an invitation to the most anticipated high society event in Silvera- the Grand Gala. They both decided that this would be the perfect event to debut as a couple and to see if their practice had paid off. Ethan’s phone had been constantly blown up with notifications and people desperately wanting to know where this flash marriage had come from and who his new wife was. He had conveniently ignored all inquiries into the matter, responding only to urgent work calls with Julian as his proxy. Scarlet had already prepared her and Ethan’s outfits and he was surprised to find the suit to his taste, and her outfit a modest yet beautiful business casual dress that complimented his outfit perfectly.Seeing his surprise, Scarlet introduced him to her stylist, one of her fellow orphans who was now thriving in the clothing industry and launching several clothing lines under the P

  • The CEO's Competent Contract Wife   Ethan And Scarlet Start Their Married Life

    Following their flash marriage, Ethan arrived at Scarlet’s mansion with a single moving truck of stuff and his favorite car. Ethan figured he could bring anything else over as needed, and it wasn’t like he couldn’t return to his property at any point if he wanted to. As he approached the front gate, he took in the brick walls lining the estate, and the ivy growing over them. Entering the gate, he found the property lush with greenery, flowers and trees scattered around, and a large garden growing off to one side. Children could be seen running around and playing, and various adults were around, some supervising the children and others enjoying the outdoors or going from building to building. As Ethan approached the front of the main doors, he reached up to knock the old fashioned hand knocker on the door, and was startled when the door suddenly opened and Scarlet was revealed to him. She was dressed in business casual clothes, and her long hair was pulled back in a simple bun, two lo

    Two days after their meeting, Ethan was walking through his company when a beautiful woman wearing the cleaning clothes of his company accidentally ran into him, almost falling over as she did so. He reached his arms out to catch the woman, and upon seeing her face, was immediately entranced. Taking her hand, he gently asked the frightened employee if she was alright, and upon receiving confirmation that she was, much to the shock of the employees observing the scene. The normally stoic and cold CEO was kindly asking a mere cleaner if she was fine, and ignoring the giant stain across his suit that had transferred from her uniform. The cleaner however had noticed the stain and was mortified, quickly attempting to clean off the suit to no avail, the mess just spreading even more.The CEO calmly grabbed her hands, stopping her desperate efforts and telling her that it was fine as long as she was okay. Tears in her eyes, she apologized and informed the CEO she did not have the funds to pa
