The Substitute’s Redemption Chapter 123
“Jane? What are you doing back home? We were supposed…”“You can walk?” Her eyes trailed from his feet up to his face to look into his eyes.Ethan felt his strength leave his body at her gaze, he couldn't keep lying to her… she would know. She was a medical student.“Since when? And you better not lie to me Ethan.” Tears gathered in her eyes but she stubbornly refused to let them fall and that was his undoing… Plus she called him by his name! She always called him ‘Dear’.“Since… ever,” he swallowed through a lump that was suddenly lodged at his throat as he watched her tears fall while he watched her shake her head in disbelief.“All this time… it was a lie?” She broke down and sank to the floor while Bruce let himself out without either of them noticing.“Jane…”“Don't… don't take another step, I want you to stay away from me. I can't even look at you.”The disappointment was present in her eyes and her voice, more than he could bear so he tried to reach out to her again but she ba

Ethan stood in stunned silence as the gravity of her words weighed on him. “Divorce?! Absolutely not. Jane please, just listen to me for a minute, ok? I didn't do it without reason.”“I honestly do not care what your reasons were. I am way past caring. Do you know what I went through because of you?!”The rest of the guards stood in stunned silence and gaping looks. The Young Madam really asked for a divorce?Arnold had on a wry smile as he looked down at his hands. He may find his Young Master annoying but he certainly did not want him to go back to being unhappy.Bruce stepped away from the rest and called Ivy, he knew she was the only one Jane would trust enough to leave with.“You better have a damn good reason for calling me at this particular moment because I plan to have your hide when I see you.”Ivy spat as soon as she picked up, her voice dripping with venom and he had no doubts that she would make good on that promise.“Listen to me Ivy, there is a very good reason Young M

Ivy's fingers twitched in worry and slight fear as she watched Jane turned her head slowly to look at her from the screen. It was almost robot like.“Jane… I promise it's not what it looks like.”“Really?”Ivy nodded like a hen pecking rice. Right now, Jane looked every bit like her husband.“And you expect me to believe that?! The message is right in front of me, I can see it and you dare to lie to my face?”“How could you even do this to me? You sold me out! Betrayed me! I am so disappointed in you,” Jane stabbed a finger at Ivy ruthlessly.“Jane, please just give me a minute to explain…”“Explain?! What exactly are you going to explain? You want to cook something up? Go right ahead then, I'm listening.”“Ok, please just listen. Bruce called me a bit after you did, I was already on my way to pick you up.”“He pleaded with me to bring you here for your safety. I think your husband is going to do something soon and you need to be well protected.”“He did not tell me everything but he

Arnold eased the car into the VIP parking and Bruce hopped out of the passenger seat and held the door open for Ethan.They were directed to the CEO only elevator by the security guard assigned to the VIP parking to get investors and the big shots of the business world straight to the hallway of the event hall without the hassle of uninvited press.Ethan had purposely delayed his arrival so he could interrupt Cassidy’s speech so when the huge double doors were thrown open, the attention of the guests and press were redirected.The event was being broadcasted and streamed live so almost everyone in the country was watching, millions of people were tuned into the livestream.“The Young Master really knows how to make a grand entrance,” Arnold said just above a whisper, standing at Ethan's left side.“Of course,” Ethan responded in the same tone, “Now shut up, the shot has to look cool. The Young Madam would definitely be watching this.”“Ah, yes. He needs to woo the Young Madam again. W

There was an uproar both at the event and in the comment section of the live stream. The directors stood stunned at his statement and the reporters began taking pictures and video cameras were focused on the people at the doors of the vault.Jane went mute in front of the television while Ivy screamed in surprise.Cassidy went pale in fear and horror but composed herself and tried to defend herself.“Mr. Harrington, we have been friends for many years but I do not think I like this joke.”“Friends? I have no recollection of ever being friends with a wannabe imposter. That is extremely beneath me and very insulting.”“Mr. Harrington,” the older director, Mr Jenkins, called out to him, “You do realize that you can't just say things like this…”“Oh I can, because I've known my friend since childhood and that… is not my friend.”“Ethan, if this is about what happened at your house with your wife… I apologize. However, you can't disrupt my inauguration because you want to be petty…”“Petty

The cops tried to talk her out of it as she backed the exit and attempted to leave with the hostage but was quickly immobilized by two bullets from a Ruger SR22.Shot on target by a retired female general and shattered her kneecaps.She was quickly dragged out and calm was restored within the shocked guests.“I would like to state that the real Cassidy Owen is safe and will be returning soon, that's all.”Ethan walked out amidst shouts for interview requests from the reporters and stunned silence from the rest of the audience.Only the comments from the live stream was active even after he left.He rushed to the car and settled in, thinking of how cool he must have looked.“Take me to the villa instead, and don't wait. I will be sleeping with my wife today.”Bruce and Arnold glanced at each other, understanding their Young Master's intentions so when they dropped him off in front of the gates of the villa, they shouted some encouraging words.“Take care, Young Master. You have to do i

Ethan kissed her again and laid her down on the messy covers. Leaning forward, he let his mouth linger on the shell of her ear, his breath tickling her neck.Jane shuddered at his touch, eyes bright and hazy with the eagerness to learn and desire pooling in her belly.He lightly traced her jawline with his nose, enjoying the way her breath hitched.Jane felt she could burst into flames at any moment, feeling goosebumps spread down her neck and chest. He had barely touched her but she was ready to melt into a puddle.Ethan wasted no time sinking his hand into the hair at the nape of her neck with a mild grip. His free hand slipped around her body and palmed her ass as his lips hovered barely an inch over hers, making her moan into his mouth.It felt like he was everywhere at once and all she could do was hold onto him and take it. Then his mouth travelled down her neck, sucking and nipping, she was now practically panting.Ethan sunk to his knees by the bed in front of her, tugging at

Jane's eyes fluttered open and the soreness of her lady bits hit her like a train, she recalled what had happened and blushed. She had finally consummated her marriage.The rumbling of her stomach jolted her from her thoughts, she was hungry. She sniffed the air and smiled, he was in the kitchen.She had a quick shower and tip toed out of the room, she peeked into the kitchen and watched her husband's back muscles ripple as he plated the pasta he just cooked.“Jane, baby, get over here and sit. I can feel your eyes on my back,” he chuckled and she scrunched her nose as she blushed in embarrassment.“That's impossible, how did you know?” She took a seat at the kitchen island and beamed at her plate.“I heard you close the bedroom door. Letting the door close noisily is not exactly wise if you were trying to sneak up on me.”He pinched her cheeks still rosy from her shower. She dug into the pasta with gusto, moaning at the first bite.Ethan swallowed as his brain fed him with flashbacks
