Author's POV ~Ethan hissed and slammed his hand on the steering wheel as a vehicle overtook him. His brows furrowed as he glared at the driver who just cut him off. Jasmine growled, and tucked her head out the window. She clenched her fist and yelled, “Watch where you're going, idiots!” As she settled back on her chair, she sighed, frustrated and then turned to Ethan whose eyes were on the road. He still looked furious, not because of the driver’s insane driving but his mind was occupied with thoughts of Dylan and Scarlett and the possibility of them reuniting as lovers. Since Scarlett’s abduction, he could sense how nervous and overwhelmed Dylan was, his anxiety was through the roof and he was determined to find her.He could recall his plans to find her and his hopes for rekindling their relationship. Not only was he worried about that happening, he was terrified of losing Scarlett’s attention and affection to Dylan. What prompted his unease was the speculation circulating among f

Author's POV ~Ethan and Jasmine finally arrived at the hospital. Reporters clamped around, paparazzis held their cameras at the ready, the lights blindingly bright. As Ethan parked at a corner, Jasmine alighted first, her gaze drifting towards the crowd, the intensity of the spotlight making her eyes squint slightly. Her lips twitched as a frown appeared on her face. She rolled her eyes again as the flurry of reporters and cameras surrounded her, bathing her in a harsh glare as they approached her.Her grip on her bag handle tightened. She swung it over her shoulder and waited patiently for Ethan to alight from the car. One thing she hated was the attention their arrival had gathered. Not that she hated to be seen but she despised the clamor of questions that often create a frenetic atmosphere.After Ethan had alighted, he adjusted his cufflinks and managed to keep a smile on his face.His eyes crinkled at the corners as he stared at the harsh lights of the camera, his lips curlin

His brows furrowed slightly as he looked up at Scarlett, trying to make sense of the sudden tension and her frantic behaviour.Eric took his gaze to her grip on his wrist, his face scrunched in confusion.Everyone's eyes were now on Scarlett whose actions conveyed an instinct to protect Eric but Jasmine on the other hand was not understanding, she believed Scarlett was taking things too far.“I won't ever let you touch Eric you Lunatic!

Ethan's POV~“Why are you crying? Are you hurt?” Eric's question hung in the air as he looked up at Scarlett with wide, curious eyes, waiting for an answer to his question. Scarlett sniffed and wiped the corners of her eyes with the back of her palms. Her lips quivered and her hands trembled as she reached for Eric. I felt my jaw tighten as a mixture of emotions washed over me..Her emotions were that of sadness, pain and possibly relief. As she looked up at me, I tore our gaze, my heart heavy with guilt – guilty of not being truthful about their relationship, for keeping Eric in the dark about her being his biological mother, and for potentially causing her pain and distress. I felt overwhelmed, my feelings intertwined with guilt and uncertain. I had no clue how Eric would feel once he got to know the truth. I felt bad because I've been dishonest with him, brainwashing him into thinking jasmine was his biological mother instead of Scarlett. And now I feel like I've failed him becaus

Scarlett’s POV ~I breathed in relief as Ethan stepped out of the ward. When he was gone, Eric turned to face me, his eyes glowing in the fluorescent light. He flashed me a warm smile as he fondled my hands.“Since my dad is away, I'll be so honoured to stay with you, Miss Scarlett, I mean ‘Mom’.” Eric spoke cutely, his innocent eyes piercing into mine as if seeing through me, as if seeing through my struggles, my pain and my undying love for him. His voice was angelic, the sweetest thing I've ever heard.I nodded and planted a firm kiss on his forehead and that of Emily. “I don't mind staying with you for a long time. My dad can always come to see me here, right?” He asked, eyes going wide with curiosity. I nodded, giving him just the assurance he needed. He went on and on, telling me about his favourite songs, colors and dance steps. Emily joined in his conversation and I watched as they both discussed topics they've been taught at school.I never knew Eric was a chatterbox. Even w
