Not wanting to be rude, she accepted the flower nevertheless, she had not given time to appreciate the flower and placed it on the island and took out the plates and cutleries. “Let me help you,” Ethan said and was about to take the plates from her, but Moriah put them on top of the island. It wasn’t hard for Ethan to guess, he knew that she didn't want him to touch her. He took the plates and brought it to the table. He came back and took the cups. During the dinner, Zachary and Cindy had their usual bantering. “Cindy, you have to learn from Moriah how to cook. Your cooking skill is good only for the dogs,” Zachary remarked. “That’s why you like the food I prepared for you,” Cindy retorted. Moriah choked at Cindy’s come back and started to cough. Ethan patted her back and Moriah straightened up, her back was stiff as a board as it tensed up. She looked up to him, Ethan caught sight of the repugnance flickered in her eyes and stopped stroking her back altogether. “Here, drink it

Exhausted, Moriah drifted to sleep while she was being cleaned. The sun was beginning to set when she woke from her sleep as she heard her son cry. As she was trying to sit, a pair of strong arms helped her. Moriah looked up and saw her dashing husband’s face. Though she wanted to push him, she couldn't do it as she had no energy to do it. “Mommy, feed your baby,” a nurse said, smiling. Moriah took her son from her. Moriah was shy to feed her son as Ethan was in the room. Sensing her apprehension, the nurse chuckled and said, “You don’t have to be shy, we’re both women and it’s your husband who is only here. Don’t tell me you're still too shy for him to see your breasts.” Moriah pale face stained red, Ethan lips twitched. Moriah glared at him and gestured for him to turn around which he did without protesting. His son has been already hungry and needed to be fed thus, he gave up the idea of teasing Moriah. Moriah was wary while feeding her son, she hid her breast from Ethan’s sight

Ethan hugged Moriah after listening to the recording. Moriah couldn't contain her revulsion over his touch, thus her body reacted and cringed. "Don't believe it, they are all lies" Ethan said, his body trembling. "Lies?" Moriah chuckled and extricated herself from him. She put a great distance between them as she didn't want him to touch her. "They aren't lies. I heard her screaming your name in pleasure mingled with your groan. And based on your performance you could really make a woman scream your name." Ethan grinned at her last sentence. "So you're proud that your mistress screamed your name while you were into it. You're really shameless" Moriah said in disgust. Ethan chuckled. "I'm delighted you knew my performance wife." "You're disgusting," Moriah put her hands over her ears as the moans and groans she heard that night rang in her ears. She slumped onto the floor as her body trembled. She can't take the torture anymore those sounds haunted her, mocked her and taunted her

"I have married once and will remain married with my wife. As for Hazel I never loved her," Ethan answered Brandon while he clenched his fists. "You never loved her?" Brandon chuckled. "Then, why are you unwilling to send her away even if you know that you're hurting your wife? You even brought Hazel to your mansion. You've pushed your wife to the edge." "Dad, stop it! I know I'm an idiot who ruined my marriage. But please stop rubbing salt to my wound," Ethan ran a hand on his head. "Son, I thought you had learned a lesson from my mistakes, but you hadn't." Brandon sadly said. Brandon didn't hide from Ethan why he had a half brother. Ethan's half brother's mom was the best friend of Brandon. Fiona and Brandon would always quarrel because of her. Brandon would always defend her from Fiona, that she meant nothing to harm their marriage and that she just sees him as a friend and brother. When Ethan was born, their fighting worsened and Brandon sought comfort from his best friend, s

Ethan held Moriah's waist, stopping her from standing. Moriah gave Ethan a glare, he responded by giving her his boyish grin. "Moriah, dear, I brought some snacks for you," Fiona said and looked at her sleeping grandson. Ethan lifted the cookies to Moriah's lips, but Moriah would not open her mouth. "Love, I observed our son's voracious appetite, so you need to eat well." "Ethan, look at me. I'm fat now," Moriah complained. "Your body is just fine and I didn't love you because of your body," Ethan smiled, Moriah's heart fluttered and her face suffused with color. Moriah bit her bottom lip and buried her face in his neck and Ethan chuckled. "You're so cute when you're shy." "Ethan, stop teasing me," Moriah said, coquettishly. "Anyway, I'm leaving you, so you could talk." Fiona was too excited to tell Brandon that Ethan and Moriah eventually made up. When Fiona left the room, Ethan looked at Moriah while she was eating her snack. "Do you like some?" Moriah said as she caught h
