Chapter 35


    Rivers POV


    It has been almost eighteen days, nine hours, fifteen minutes and 30 seconds to be exact.Since Ist


    saw Ethan standing before me. I could not believe the turn of events that happened in only one day he


    went from gold digger to forgive me.


    But Ethan was the type of man you couldn’t understand from a nce or two or maybe a thousand.His


    silence usually did not indicate a good thing.


    I was sitting at my desk with files stacked on my desk but I was starting into mid-air with a pen gripped


    around my right hand but my thoughts were interrupted by Mia’s voice on the inte.


    “River um Mr.Scott is here.” sheughed, causing a smirk to stitch on my face but I tried to keep a great


    amount of professionalism so the smirk transformed into a much more serious look.


    “Let him in,“I informed her straightening my posture and soon enough Ethan was surely standing


    before me with a wide grin on his face.


    “Good morning River.“He said, looking my direction but I pretended to be busy flipping through papers.


    “Good morning Mr.Scott.“I kept a stern face on, not looking up from the paperwork and I could feel him


    step closer.“You may have a seat.“I ushered towards the chair and he did as told.


    He cleared his throat than finally spoke:“I want to talk to you about Nathan.“He practically mumbled and


    I lifted my head from the papers, my eyes darted a re at him.


    I knew this discussion was going to approach sometime soon I just did not realize it would be at that


    current moment. He was straightforward and direct that it caused shivers to go down my spine.


    “You may proceed Mr.Scott,“I announced this time looking at him, and he pinched the bridge of his


    nose, straightening his posture.


    “Can you not?“He asked with an upset tone which caused a mental grin to form on my face.


    “Not what Mr-“I began but was interrupted by his loud huff.


    " Not call me by myst name River.“He exined, rising from his chair causing his muscles to stiffen.


    “What the hell do you want me to address you by then the man, who left my son fatherless or the man


    who ripped my heart to shreds because either one will bring joy to my face.“I hissed.


    “The devil yed with my mind I thought the DNA test was-”


    “Wait what you received a DNA test?” I questioned, folding my arms surprised at the nerve he had, he


    did not realize all the ropes were in my y for now and If I wanted I can kick him out but for the sake


    of Nate I remained as calm as the sitation allowed me to be.


    “Yes I did but?”


    “Thats the reason that caused you to leave your son fatherless.Thats the reason that made my baby


    cry every time the mention of you came up.You knew you are the only man I ever slept with, I spent


    nearly a year with you and you believe some fuckin manipted DNA test over me.” I gritted my teeth


    and with each word, my voice grew louder as I stepped closer to him jabbing my index finger on his


    chest and he was just looking straight into my eyes.


    “So I’m still the only one you slept with?“He asked, with a smirk wider than the Gulf of Mexico and my


    nerves shot with anger. Is he serious thats the only thing that he understood from the whole


    conversation that urred?


    “Please tell me your joking?” I asked with anger bulging through my eyes and he nodded chuckling,


    causing me to roll my eyes.


    “Your aggressive side” He admitted smirking with no shame, and gazing at me from head to toe” Is


    such a turn on.” and from those words, I began to pull down my skirt so it doesn’t reveal much skin and


    then closing the three remaining buttons on my blouse before his hand stopped me on the second


    button and I gulped, looking at his hand brushing over my shirt.


    “I love the view of your breast from here.“He whispered, in my ear, trailing his finger softly against my


    skin as I inhaled a whiff of his cologne, my heart began to race quicker than the destruction of a


    hurricane.My body was longing, craving even for more of his breathe taking touch.My heart wanted his


    presence to remain with me but my brain was telling me to remember all the pain he caused you in the


    past four years.


    “Move Ethan, just back away,“I whispered in frustration, nearly crying and he stepped back a little,


    gazing at me with lust clear in his eyes.


    I had to be strong enough to stay away from him and not allow history to repeat its self in the most


    dreadful manner.


    “Just go...I will call youter.“I sniffled ready to burst and he stepped closer to me as I tried to contain


    my self but no I couldn’t something in me triggered causing me to burst into a river of tears.


    Ethan took me into his arm and buried me in his hard rock yet warm chest.


    “You’re the reason why?“I said, continuing to sob in his chest.“All this is your fault.”


    “I know baby I know.” he simply replied putting his head on mine bringing me closer to his chest.
