Pov Ethan
I had been at work 2 days ago I had been trying to close this overseas to open a new company out there. When my phone started ringing. I grabbed it Adam Chase popped up.
"Ethan" I said
"Clearly, it's you, boy. It's time 2 days. Write this address down. Your set to marry Jade Larson. Try not to f**k this up like everything else in your life. I don't want to have to shell out any more money for you." he sneered
I was seething I wanted to tell him to go f**k off. I didn't need this the only reason I still agreed was that my mom made me promise I would see this through. She wanted to Marry her best friend's daughter so I could marry into a wealthy family and finally get the respect I deserve.
"Ethan did you hear what I said boy!" Adam yelled.
"Yeah F**king heard you sir" I said I took it and only because I had bigger plans to destroy him.
"Don't speak to me like that boy. This is all your wh0r3 mother's fault. If she got rid of you like wanted we wouldn't be here." he snapped
That was it if I didn't hang up this was going to get worse. The time wasn't right yet.
"Understood sir, don't worry I won't f**k this up." I said through gritted teeth and I hung up. I stood and started pacing as loin looked in a cage. Soon I found myself destroying my office. I even punched a wall. Sh*t I didn't need this not right now.
Not when my life was in an okay place. Contrary to the popular belief of me being a complete f**k up. I actually made myself self very wealthy. I was a f**king billionaire. Of course, no one knew this I made it a point to keep myself out of the spotlight no drama no pictures no one knew who the founder, Owner, and Ceo of
Evans Industry was other than I was a bachelor who never got in messy situations.
I have never been seen. It's hard work you have people press everyone poking around which is why only my best friend since elementary school Dylan Bass knew he was my vice president. He came from. wealth if he didn't want to work he wouldn't have to. A big-time playboy he couldn't keep in his pants to save his life but without him, I wouldn't be able to live this double life. He was the face of the company.
I have an assistant Carter that I made sign a nondisclosure agreement it was airtight he said anything about me to anyone. He would regret his life not only him but his future generations to come.
Then there was Lisa Carter she was a silent partner. I meet her in high-school she too was filthy rich. Mr.Carter was one of the biggest pit bull lawyers in New York. He was sought out by the wealthy to get out of situations. He didn't care if you were innocent or guilty. If you had the money he would get you off. One way or another. Now Lisa always wanted more from me but I couldn't give it to her she was pretty but her obsession with me didn't make sense. Plus her parents would never agree with the disgraced illegitimate son of Adam Chase.
When I chose to drop out of college to peruse this tech company. She found me she stayed up late to help get this off the ground. Which is why I still kept her around. My first business would have never been if not for her money.
My tech company to off im sought after for everything to do with security cameras alarm systems private security you name it that company did it. At this point, I decided I wanted now an empire I decided to get into the fashion world.
Just to try to ruin my father. I came in like a firestorm. My fashion company is now second to Chase Enterprise. I was taking client after client. it was far from over.
Of course, I also had a board for my company but they all also had to sign away their life to me. They have never seen me but I take no chances with nondisclosure for anyone to close had to sign one. I was never home when the maids came but guess what they had to sign one too.
I was doing this for my mother Alina Salvator I needed to avenge her for what Adam did to her. Everyone thought my mom was his mistress but it was the opposite the man that fathered me was a R*peist. He took what he wanted that night and ruined my mom's reputation. That's right I was a product of R**e conceived by force.
My mother didn't have the heart to get rid of me. So she kept me and she never treated me badly she always loved me even though I look like him. When Adam found out she was keeping me he had no choice but to make a contract stating my mom would say nothing of what really happened and he would provide for me. He sent me to the best schools all privately. I had clothes and food but my mom still worked hard. They did disown her but eventually came around in secret. They couldn't be seen with us. My mom had become a pariah and an embarrassment to the Salvator family.
She died hit by a drunk driver when walking home from work. That day I lost a part of my soul one I don't believe I will ever get back. The part of me that was capable of loving someone.
I look down at my hand it was bleeding whatever who cared? I looked at the clock it was 11 pm. F**k I need a drink I grabbed the folder the Pi dropped off. Just because I was seeing this marriage through didn't mean I would make it easier for her no.
If this file was true she would suck me dry for every last cent if she knew the truth of who I'm. I had to keep up appearances as Ethan Chase but he only came out when I wanted to mess with Adam. I would go and stir up trouble I might be illegitimate but he still acknowledged me to the world. So anything that came out about me hurt his reputation. That was honestly the only joy I felt in life.
I called Carter he picked up right away.
"Sir?" he said
"Let's go and get some to clean my office and fix my wall." I said. "you got it sir" he said... My office and Dylans office where on the top floor I didn't have to hide up here it was only him, Carter and me. You need clearance and permission to get on this floor if you didn't have it you couldn't get in. I had a separate parking garage a private Elevator and for special occasions a body double. I know I'm being extra but once I do reveal myself and what I have built it will be the biggest F**k you to the Chase Family.
Once in my penthouse, I opened Jade's file again. I needed to get her to leave me. She is supposed to be entitled a big wh0r3 with nack for stealing has a pretty good rap sheet on her. Great well she is about to have an awaking because I'm posing as the poor son I will be moving back to my childhood home. One-bedroom home. With almost nothing in it courtesy of the fact that I never did anything to it. I kept it for the memories it got cleaned once a month but even else is the same. I left all the papers in the corners the place was dump. I was hoping to get her to run and break the contract. I would get off clean the only ones that will lose are The Larson family and Adam. There was furniture in the side garage but I didn't plan on touching it.
I was trying way too hard to make it the less desirable place to live to have her running as soon as humanely possible. I even told them not to go clean this month. I had this all worked out. I also plan to be drunk and arrested the same night as our wedding and have come to get me from jail. This is going to be fun I thought. I decided I need to get some urges out so I called one of the only women I allow in my bed to use. I mean I add have to hire her but this is easier on me no dating no finding anyone. This was a contract she came did her service for me and left she gets paid and I get what I need.
Selena was her name. I sent her a message to come asap.
20 minutes later she was here. I got what I need and sent her on her way.
It was 3 am by the time I went to bed. Falling asleep was never easy for me and I was usually up by 6 am. How I managed to stay alive this long surprises me too I run on 5 hours of sleep on a good day. This did make me quite the a**hole to be people around me.
I got up and got ready for the day it was 630 am. Last day to use the luxuries I have I can only hope that she will fold quickly. So I can move on with my life.
