His words made my stomach stiffen.
Ethan slowly raised his hand and trailed his fingers down my cheek. “Could you really be satisfied just being
Alexander's mistress?”
*Olivia*
| swallowed around the lump that had developed in my throat. Even though | hated to admit it, Ethan did have a
point. Alexander's family would never allow him to marry someone like me.
It wasn’t even like | was making an assumption. Just at the thought of Alexander spending the night with him, his
mother had set him up on a date with Naomi. No matter what | did, the Green family would never accept me.
That thought made it feel like someone had just put a thousand pound boulder on my chest.
But then | shook my head to clear it. | glared at my ex. | wasn’t going to allow him to get into my head. | didn’t
even want to be with Alexander. My life was complicated enough. Why would | want to complicate it even more
by dating my boss?
| crossed my arms and cocked my hip. “It’s funny that you would bring up the subject of mistresses. When you're
the one who slept with Chloe when you were still married to me.” | pointed an accusing finger at him. “It seems
like whoever you're ‘committed’ to at the tyou don’t seem to care about. Why the hell are you in my hotel
room arguing withwhen your future pregnant wife is in the hospital after being stabbed and almost
drowned?” | paused and blew out a long breath “Are you cheating on her?”

“Chloe tricked me,” Ethan admitted and averted his eyes from mine. “She faked being pregnant. She forced me
into a sexual relationship with her. | never wanted to cheat on you. | swear it.”
| rolled my eyes. “Tell someone who will believe it,” | snapped. “I'm so sick of your fibs. Nothing is ever your
fault, is it?” | waited until Ethan was lookingin the eyes before | said what | needed to. | wanted to make sure
that he was actually hearingand not pretending to listen like usual. “We are never getting back together,
Ethan. The most important thing in a relationship is trust, and after everything that you've putthrough, I will
never trust you again.”
Ethan winced like | had hit him, but | kept going.
“Now, go take care of Chloe, or you can kiss your relationship goodbye,” | said and crossed my arms with finality.
Instead of leaving, Ethan gazed atwith hurt in his eyes. | couldn't tell whether he was putting on an act, but |
didn’t care either way. He didn’t deserve my sympathy.
“Why are you treatinglike shit?” he asked, his voice breaking on the last word.
| scoffed. “You're the one who, not even five minutes ago forced yourself into my room and pushedaround.
Besides, everything that I've said was true.”
“You can apologize toby accompanyingto the restaurant downstairs for breakfast,” Ethan said and took
my hand, pullingout of the room.
| tried to stand my ground, but he was too powerful.
He opened the door and draggedout of the room. | wanted to kick him or punch him in the face in order to
