I know how she must be feeling. I introduced her to Ethan, and we even hung out all three of us together a few times. She must also feel betrayed like I was.
“No, he refuses to say a thing” Brian shakes his head.
I turn to face Ethan only to find him staring intently at me. His emotionless gaze sucked me in right away.
“Why? Why did you do this to me, Ethan?” my voice trembled as I spoke.
He stares at me. His cold gaze burned me. Gave me frostbite. I still don’t know where all the warmth he used to have went. Did he have a switch for his emotions, and he could just flip it on and off when he wanted it? Or did none of it exist? If that’s so then he was one hell of an actor.
“I wanted the company.” He simply said.
I was shocked that he had actually answered. I didn’t expect him to
The shock is pushed back as what he said, registers. Soon, my surprise turns into confusion.
“What company?” I ask
I didn’t have a Company. I invested in Companies, but I didn’t have any of my own, like Rowan. The only thing I had was Hope Foundation, and I don’t see someone like Ethan being interested in an organization for helping children.
“What company are you talking about, Ethan?” I push when he doesn’t say a damn thing.
I needed to know what made him play me like that. What was so important that he would pull such a hurtful stunt.
“I wanted your grandparent’s company…I worked so hard for it, so it’s only fair that it was given to me” he said leaving me more confused.
“You’re not making any sense.” I laugh humorlessly. “You did that for a company that I have no rights to. If you wanted that company so bad, then you should have gone after Travis given it was left in his name”
Travis glares at me, but I don’t care. Everyone knows that my grandparents and father didn’t leave me a dime. I didn’t even have shares in the family company like Emma did.
