"Hey honey." Eileen bent and kissed Ethan's cheek as she joined him on the patio. She took a seat opposite him and crossed her legs. "Hey." Ethan looked up from his phone. "How did your video conference call with the Chinese go?" "Good." She smiled. "We're going to china to finalize the deal." "We?" He raised a brow. "You mean, you and Eugene, right?" "Of course not. Eugene is traveling to Montreal tomorrow so he can't go with me and besides the sooner you learn the ropes of the business, the faster I can retire from that too." Eileen smiled. "I can't go with you to China, Mom." Ethan frowned. "Why? You have exams coming up or what?" She inquired. "No, but... why don't you take Daniel instead?" "You're the one studying business administration in school, not Daniel." She said. "Besides, you're my son and everything I own along with your father will go to you." Ethan sighed. He figured she was right about that because everything would go to him after his mother retired so he ha

"You'll only be finished when I'm done with you." He told her jokingly."This is no time for jokes Ethan." She snapped. "If they find out that I came upstairs...""Relax." He caressed her arms. "The cameras weren't installed upstairs. The footage will only be of you coming up and nothing else.""Oh." She relaxed a bit. "I have to go then.""We have unfinished business." He leaned forward to kiss her.Saira placed her palm against his mouth. "I have a boyfriend.""Who is not supposed to be your boyfriend.""I love Daniel, Ethan and the sooner you realize that, the better it will be." She told him."If you loved him, you wouldn't have let me kiss you." He snapped.Saira flinched. "You took me by surprise!" She bristled."Bullshit. You wanted me to. I saw it in your eyes." He retorted. "So now you read people's eyes to know how they feel?" She sneered. "Should I call you Einstein now?""Don't push me Saira or you won't like what I'll do." He warned her."So... you're the type of man tha

Ethan saw Daniel first before he noticed Saira who was trying to imitate the way her stupid boyfriend was dancing and failing miserably. She was dressed in a white strapless dress that reached her thighs and he could see the strings of her bikini top so he guessed that she'd worn the bikini but didn't have any intention of pulling her dress off. "Dude, it's your party. Why are you looking so dull?" George asked. "I've not seen one girl give you a lap dance or a blow job. You're not even drinking." "I'm fine. Just not in the mood." Ethan said. "That's not good." Harry said. "Are you falling sick or do you have a disease Ethan?" "What?" Ethan bristled. "What warranted that stupid question?" "Dude chill. Don't get your boxers in a twist. I was only kidding." Harry apologized. "But seriously bro, you're dull." George said. "Fine I'll dance." Ethan handed Harry his cup, grabbed a random girl and took her to the dance floor. Saira watched Ethan dance with the girl, watched the girl

Two days later "What the hell were you thinking, Darina?!" Saira heard Ethan's voice from a distance as she neared the Hospitality management department. She'd injured herself while going down the stairs in the girls hostel this morning so she'd gone to the school clinic for a check up. Unfortunately for her, she'd fractured her wrist - the one she wrote with and it hurt like hell."Excuse me for trying to defend my territory Ethan." Darina snapped. "I couldn't watch her steal you from me.""This again?" He cried. "We're over!""We're never going to be over Ethan Delnoi, never." She jabbed her finger in his chest. "You're mine and no one else's. Anyone who gets in my way will face the same consequences.""You're lucky your father talked Kiara's dad out of throwing you in jail or else your bratty ass will be behind bars right now.""It was just a minor accident! It's not like she's dead or something." Darina waved it away."And you wonder why I don't like you." Ethan said. "You're a h

Saira took a step back at the biting tone of his voice. He'd never spoken to her like that before and she was suddenly scared but she didn't show it. "I asked you a question Saira." Daniel snapped."I went out." She replied. "Can't I go out anymore?""Out where? I told you I was going to take you to the hospital but imagine my surprise when I didn't see you in your class after the test you claimed you were going to write was over." He chuckled dryly."I did write the test. It was almost cancelled because of your text message but thank God...""What do you mean it was almost cancelled?" He cut her off brusquely."Professor Brown cancelled my test and threatened not to let me write his exam if I didn't get out of the hall but... Ethan stood up for me and his test was cancelled instead." She answered."Ethan? Is it Ethan Delnoi or another one?" Daniel couldn't believe his ears. "He took the fall for a girl.""Is that so hard to believe?" She lifted her chin in defiance."Of course! What
