By seven o'clock on Saturday morning, I was already wide awake. I knew Ethan was up as well, preparing for his corporate function. Sitting on the edge of the mattress, I gathered our smaller belongings. Leo’s favorite toys, my skincare products, and essential bath items, packing them carefully into a separate box. I had already arranged Leo’s clothes inside my main suitcase, using the remaining space to pack as many of my own outfits as possible. It hurt to leave so much behind, especially all

    Ethan completely lost control of his emotions. He rolled onto his stomach, burying his face directly into the mattress as deep, racking sobs tore through his chest. He wept uncontrollably, his shoulders shaking with a level of grief and overwhelming shock I had never seen in him before.I sat right where I was on the edge of the mattress, my own face bathed in silent tears. As much as every instinct in my body urged me to reach out and pull him into my arms, I forced myself to give him space for a few long minutes. He needed to let the dam break.After about ten agonizing minutes, his heavy weeping quieted down to ragged sniffling. He slowly pushed himself up, resting his weight on his forearms. He raised his head, his eyes bloodshot, swollen, and shining with raw pain as his gaze met mine."Why?" he muttered, his voice trembling violently. "Why did you hide this from me, Claire? Why didn't you tell me my son was alive, well and that he was living right under my nose?""Ethan, please

    Once inside his expansive master bedroom, Ethan guided Leo over to the lounge area. He turned on the big-screen television, tuning it to a cartoon channel to keep him completely occupied. With Leo settled on the plush couch, he took my hand and led me over to the far side of the room, sitting me down on the edge of his bed so we could continue our conversation.I unzipped the top of my carry-on suitcase, reaching inside to pull out the small organizer bag where I had locked away every single piece of evidence I possessed. My hands trembled as I handed him the blood-stained letter I had received the night of Sarah’s death, the mysterious note I had found tucked inside my bedroom days ago, and the rusted key from the garden.Next, I brought out the rest, the silver locket, the old personnel file Sarah had used while working at the estate, the video SIM clip I had discovered hidden inside the locket, his private diary, the stack of letters he had written over the years, and the official

    Ethan recoiled in absolute shock, his hands snapping off my shoulders as if my skin had suddenly turned into burning coals.He took three uneven steps back, his chest heaving as he paced the narrow strip of carpet between the bed and the wall. He was completely focused, his sharp mind frantically working to connect every single dot from the very day I submitted my application for the job to this precise, devastating moment. I remained frozen against the wall, my spine pressed flat against the cool surface, calculating every breath and every next word.He spun around on his heel, closing the distance between us until he stood just inches away, his shadow completely consuming me."Did I... did I hear you correctly?" he asked, his voice cracking down the middle.I swallowed hard, holding his gaze. "Yes. I am Sarah’s sister."He raised his eyes to mine, and for the first time since I had met him, I saw raw tears welling over his lower lashes. He blinked several times, fighting with everyt

    Claire’s POV I slowly walked across the smooth marble floor to where Ethan stood waiting for me, keeping my eyes glued firmly to the tiles beneath my feet. I couldn't bring myself to meet his eyes. I felt his piercing glare scanning me from head to toe, taking in my altered appearance. I had already shed my former attire, and changed into comfortable lounge shorts that barely covered my hips and a simple dark tank top."What exactly are you doing in a hotel with Leo, Claire?" his voice rasped, cold and sharp, yet low so no other person could hear him. "Is this really where you decided to take a small boy for a fun day out, or did you have a completely different mission in mind?"My chest tightened, and my throat felt completely dry. "I... I was just, I mean we were…” I stammered, still unable to raise my head.Before I could drag out another broken word, his hand reached out, his fingers catching my chin. His grip wasn't rough, but it was firm enough to lift my head, forcing my tear-

    Ethan’s povI wrapped up the event in record time. All the organizers really needed from me were my speech and a few signatures on the contract annexes. I delivered both quickly, checked out with my assistant to make sure all post-event loose ends were handled, and stepped away from the main floor. The venue was packed with shareholders and press, and I had zero patience for the suffocating crowd or the endless small talk.I dail Mark’s number, asking him to get the car ready and send in some escorts to lead me out. I disliked walking around with them but events like this, or crowded environments called for it. Thankfully I had already informed them to hang around in cases of necessity. I didn’t like the attention and all that comes with it. Stepping out to the curb, I got into the back of my car, dismissed the escorts and my driver pulled out into traffic immediately, taking the highway back home.I leaned my head back against the headrest, closing my eyes for a brief moment. But a

    By seven o'clock on Saturday morning, I was already wide awake. I knew Ethan was up as well, preparing for his corporate function. Sitting on the edge of the mattress, I gathered our smaller belongings. Leo’s favorite toys, my skincare products, and essential bath items, packing them carefully into a separate box. I had already arranged Leo’s clothes inside my main suitcase, using the remaining space to pack as many of my own outfits as possible. It hurt to leave so much behind, especially all the beautiful things I had acquired since moving into the estate, but taking everything was impossible.With a aching heart, I zipped up the main suitcase and sat back on the bed.At a little past eight, a light knock echoed at the door. It was too early for breakfast, making me wonder who it could be. I walked over and opened the door immediately.Ethan was standing in the hallway, looking strikingly handsome. He wore a crisp white shirt paired with tailored black trousers and polished black sh

    The rising sun made the grey stone look colder in the vale estate. I woke up at 7:00 AM, my heart already racing before my eyes even opened. For a split second, I forgot where I was. Then, the smell hit me, expensive floor wax and the faint, bitter scent of old paper. I wasn't in our cramped, one-

    The rain wasn't just falling, it was trying to drown me. It lashed against my cracked windshield, and my wipers let out a pathetic, rhythmic wheeze as they struggled to clear the blur. Every few miles, the engine made a hollow coughing sound that sent a jolt of pure ice through my chest.Not now, I

    The next day was a blur of ancient ledgers and forced focus. I avoided the main house, terrified that if I saw Ethan, he would clearly see what was written across my face. But Ethan Vale wasn't a man you could avoid. He was the sun of this dark solar system, and I was just a planet caught in his gr

    I reached for my phone on the nightstand, the screen’s harsh glare cutting through the darkness like a blade. 5:14 AM.I let out a long, shaky breath, knowing sleep was a lost cause. My skin still felt sensitized, the phantom weight of Ethan’s hands from the dream making the silk of my nightgown fe
