    <i>Ethan’s </i>POV:


    After the summit, me and ra decided to wait until she graduated to wed. I wasn’t exactly in love with the idea, but whatever she wanted I oblige. I was just happy she’d said yes.


    After the summit, JGP crumbled, the little bit of investors Jameson had all jumped shipped, as did other scientists and biochemists. No one wanted to work for a fraud. His former VP, Edward Crawford ended up starting a small biochemicalb. It’s been


    progressing nicely over the past few years. I made sure ETP invested.


    Life went back to our regr routines of work for me and school for her. I ended up spending more time at her and Gloria’s condo that my own house. Casey ended up bing one of my closest friends.


    <i>“</i><i>Finally</i><i>! </i><i>Someone </i>to <i>take </i><i>some </i>of <i>this </i><i>load </i>off me<i>!</i><i>” </i>


    Owen threw his hands in the air one night when we were all having <i>guys</i>‘ night after I


    told Casey I considered him a best friend.


    We’d heard from other sources that Jameson and Jason both left Anna and Sophie. It was


    scary how much the two of them were alike.


    Both tried to sniff around begging ra to forgive them. I was d she told them where


    the door was, though I did hire extra security just to be safe. Finally, it was the big day.


    I stood at the alter waiting for the ceremony to begin. Owen and Casey were my groomsmen while my dad was my best man. As the wedding coordinator went to get ra, Casey and Owen walked up to me.


    “<i>You </i><i>ready</i><i>??</i>”


    Owen looked at me with his usual mischievous grin.


    <i>“</i><i>Ready </i><i>as </i><i>I’ll </i><i>ever </i><i>be</i>.<i>” </i>


    Owen looked at me as if he were remembering something.


    “<i>What</i><i>?</i><i>” </i>


    <i>“</i><i>Oh </i><i>nothing</i>, <i>just </i><i>remembering </i><i>that </i>time <i>I </i><i>TOLD </i><i>you</i>, <i>you </i><i>were </i><i>in </i><i>love with </i><i>ra</i>, <i>and </i><i>you </i><i>were </i><i>in </i><i>denial</i><i>. </i><i>Good </i><i>times</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
