Filed To Story: Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel
When Josephine heard the man calling out to her dearly, she started running as fast as her legs could carry her. However, the man was getting closer to her, so it was apparent he didn’t want to miss the chance.
Just as Josephine was running out of energy, she realized she had lost her way. She looked around and saw that she was on a golf course, so she ran directly into a lounge to hide..
Right then, she crashed into a man who was coming out of the lounge with a thud. She started seeing stars after her head bumped into the man’s firm chest.
Being a gentleman, he supported her weight and asked caringly, ‘Are you alright, miss?” With a red face, Josephine looked up and saw. an attractive face.
What a coincidence! I didn’t expect to crash into him!
On the other hand, Ethan frowned when he realized who the woman was. I can’t believe the Peeping Tom is here! He immediately retracted his hands. “Joey!” called out a man anxiously as he panted. ‘Where are you?”
Josephine no longer had any strength to run, so. she racked her brains while panting. As an ideal sprang into her mind, she hooked her arm around Ethan’s and pleaded, ‘Please lend me a hand.”
Before Ethan could react, he saw a man in a suit entering the place and looking at him and the woman beside him in shock.
“Joey…”
“I’m sorry, Luke. Let me introduce my boyfriend to you,” said Josephine charmingly as she ran her fingers through her hair..
Luke looked at Ethan and felt that he couldn’t compare to him. He didn’t expect
Josephine to have a boyfriend. What was more, the man was tall and handsome..
“Is he your boyfriend?” Luke asked in disappointment. Josephine nodded firmly.
“Yes, he is.” Then, she flashed a sweet smile at the man beside her, hoping that he would play along.
Curling his lips, Ethan looked teasingly at her and said in a masculine voice,
“Dear, why don’t you tell him what my name is?” The smile on Josephine’s face froze. Why is this man making things difficult for me? How am I supposed to know his name?
On the other hand, Luke was waiting for the woman to introduce her boyfriend. He had to find out the man’s name so that he could look into his background later. If the man was handsome but poor, that meant he still had a chance.
“What’s his name?” Luke directly asked. Josephine forced a smile and questioned the man beside her, “Why don’t you tell him your name, dear?”
“Since you’re my girlfriend, you’re supposed to know my name. Hurry up. Tell him proudly what my name is.” Ethan gaped at her playfully.Josephine gritted her teeth while trying to come up with a random name. She then said to Luke, “His name is Wayne Bowen.” I hope he won’t expose my lie!
Just then, Ethan snapped his fingers, after which a staff member came over and asked, “Do you need anything, Mr. Quarles?”
Ethan directly pushed the woman away and sneered. “You’re pretty good at acting, huh? Stop trying to use all sorts of tricks and approach me, will you?”
Josephine was dumbfounded. He’s got quite an imagination there! Ethan said to Luke, “My name is Ethan Quarles. I don’t know this woman, nor am I interested in knowing her.”
With that, he turned around and left. Luke was astonished, while Josephine was embarrassed.
Josephine bit her lip while flushing in embarrassment. Luke looked sympathetically at her and placated her by saying, “Ignore him, Joey.” Not wanting to run anymore, Josephine let out a sigh and said, ‘Let’s grab a drink or two.”
Instantly, Luke was elated. It seems that being persistent is useful, after all. Presently, Josephine was in a terrible mood. She couldn’t blame anyone for the humiliation as she had asked for it.
On the other hand, Ethan was returning to the villa. As he looked out the window and took in the view along the road, he couldn’t help but recall the woman he had just taught a lesson.
For some reason, he was pleased. Rarely anyone could affect him emotionally, but the woman was an exception.
Jared called him just then and invited him to his place. Therefore, he turned the steering wheel and went over. When he arrived, he bumped into a young woman who was coming from a different direction. He curled his lips and called out amiably, “Willy”
“Ethan!” Willow approached him with a smile. ‘We haven’t met for quite a while. Have you grown taller?” Ethan asked with a smile. “I think so!” Willow was now five-foot-four, which was tall enough for a woman.
Although her father wanted her to grow to five- foot-five, she just couldn’t manage to achieve that. Anyway, she was just as tall as her mother.
“Do you have a girlfriend now, Ethan?” Willow asked, liking gossip about other’s love life. A helpless Ethan shook his head. “No woman is interested in me.”
“There are many beautiful ladies around here. Why don’t I arrange some dates for you? I’m sure you’ll find a girlfriend in no time.” Willow didn’t believe his words at all. Since he was a brilliant man, he must be fastidious when it came to women.
“You’re as mischievous as ever!’ Ethan guffawed. Since he didn’t have a sister, he regarded Jared’s sister to be his own. Every time he met the woman, he had the urge to tease her. “Stop teasing him, Willy.” Anastasia appeared just then.
Ethan greeted politely, “Hi, Miss Tillman.”
Anastasia responded with a smile. “Come on in.” “I’ll make the arrangements right away, Ethan!” Willow said cheekily. As expected, Ethan turned around nervously. “Alright, I’ll give you a gift later. Stop messing with me. Go out and play.”
Since Willow would be receiving a present, her eyes brightened. ‘Sure. I’ll be waiting for your gift.” “Where are you going, Willy?” Anastasia asked. “I’m going to the beach.”
“Don’t wear revealing swimwear and be cautious,” Anastasia reminded. “I got it, Mom.” Willow waved her hand and left the place.
Meanwhile, a car pulled up in front of Connor’s villa. A bodyguard left the vehicle and opened the car door before a woman in a light yellow dress revealed herself.
Her fluffy pleated dress was made from silk, and her lacy sleeves added a hint of romance to her appearance. Her long wavy hair was loosely tied with a simple hairband. What was more, her silky hair made her skin glow.
After the bodyguard pressed the doorbell, Connor came over and greeted them, followed by Olivia and Selena. As they looked at the woman outside the gates, they were shocked.
The woman was none other than Ellen. However, she now looked like a princess who had stepped out of a medieval castle and arrived at their door in a fancy dress..
Connor quickly opened the gates, exclaiming, “Hi, Ellie!” “How are you, Uncle Connor? Have you gotten used to the place?” Ellen asked. Behind him, Olivia and Selena felt their emotions undulating in their hearts. Selena was especially green with envy when she saw how elegant and noble Ellen looked.
On the other hand, Olivia regretted treating Ellen badly in the past. If she had been kinder to her, would she share some of her happiness now? Nonetheless, what was done couldn’t be undone. It would be laughable if she even tried to make up for her mistakes.
“We’ve been wondering when we’d see you, Ellie. You’re gorgeous! Come on in!” Olivia still greeted Ellen with a zestful smile. “Yeah. Please come in,” Connor said.
However, Ellen shook her head. “I won’t be going in. I’m just here to take a look at you. If you need anything, you can contact the staff members here. They’ll assist you.”
All of a sudden, Olivia wanted to take Ellen’s hand, but the bodyguard raised his hand and stopped the woman from approaching. In an instant, Olivia’s face stiffened. She’s put on airs, huh?
Jared had told the bodyguards to stop the Aguirres from approaching Ellen. She was pregnant, after all, and he was worried that the Aguirres might accidentally hurt her.
“Is this how you treat us now, Ellen? With all the bodyguards around you?” Selena snorted, feeling displeased over her mother’s treatment. “Don’t say that, Lena!” Connor scolded.
Ellen didn’t tell them that she was pregnant, and it was indeed inappropriate for Olivia to try pulling her. “I’ll take my leave now, Uncle Connor.” With that, Ellen turned around and walked toward the car.
After she was gone, Olivia’s face fell. “It’s just as I expected. Since she’s wealthy now, she no longer regards us as relatives.” On the other hand, Selena’s gaze was full of determination, Ellen’s noble demeanor had agitated her. At that moment, she decided to get the man she had bumped into the other night at all costs. A joyful Connor said, “Ellie looks so elegant and noble now.”
