Chapter 6
BANG!!!
A deafening crash exploded at the entrance of the hospital’s inpatient building.
The front end of the Mercedes G-Wagon was completely wrecked, and the brand-new Bentley behind it had fared even worse — its rear end caved in like a crushed soda can, both back wheels visibly bent.
Marcus Blake’s head slammed into the deployed airbag. The pain was sharp, but rage quickly overpowered it. He shoved the door open and stormed out, ready to murder whoever had just ruined his brand-new car.
The moment he saw the damage, his heart sank. This was my new car! I hadn’t even had it for two days!
Then the G-Wagon’s door opened.
An absolute stunner stepped out — long legs, killer figure, and a face that could stop traffic. Marcus froze mid-rant. He never expected the driver to be Mia Sterling.
My goddess! I can barely even get a glimpse of her normally!
“Mia ... you ... you hit my car?” he asked, forcing a smile.
Mia tilted her head cutely. “Oh, is this your car? I’m so sorry! My driving isn’t the best, and I couldn’t stop in time. How about I pay for the damages?”
Ethan Blackthorn stepped out of the passenger side, took one look at the scene, and couldn’t stop the grin spreading across his face.
Mia really is a natural-born troublemaker.
“No need, no need!” Marcus waved his hands frantically. “It’s just a car. The Blake family can afford another. The important thing is that you’re okay!”
Even as he said it, his heart was bleeding. He had begged his father for months to buy that Bentley. But for a chance with his goddess, he was willing to swallow the loss.
“Wow, Marcus,” Mia said sweetly, “you’re such a real man. I absolutely love guys like you!”
BOOM!
Marcus felt like his soul was about to float out of his body. His goddess had just praised him!
“Mia, c-can I take you out to dinner tonight?”
“Oh, I’m busy tonight,” she replied with a regretful pout.
“Ah ... okay then.”
“Bye, Marcus!”
Mia gave Ethan a quick, sultry wink before sliding back into the G-Wagon. The engine roared, and she sped off, leaving Marcus standing there stunned and alone.
Ethan chuckled and headed back inside the hospital. He spotted Serena at the payment counter, her elegant figure impossible to miss even in the crowded lobby.
He walked up behind her. “What are you doing, dear wife?”
Serena shot him a cold glance. “Perfect timing. We need to talk.”
“What’s up?” Ethan asked with a smile.
She grabbed the receipt and walked toward the seating area in the lobby. “Two things.”
Ethan nodded. “Go ahead.”
“First, my uncle wants us both at the Blake family mansion for dinner tonight.”
So that was what Marcus had come to tell her. No wonder her face had looked so gloomy earlier.
Ethan grinned. “That’s good news!”
“Good news?” Serena snapped. “They obviously want to humiliate us!”
“Don’t worry,” Ethan said confidently. “If anyone tries to humiliate you tonight, I’ll smash their heads in.”
“Hmph. All you do is talk big.”
Even though she sounded dismissive, a tiny flicker of warmth stirred in her chest. She wished Ethan could actually back up his words, but she knew better. He was just a beggar with a big mouth. How could he possibly stand up to the Blake family?
Ethan smiled. “Alright, dear wife. What’s the second thing?”
“Let’s make an agreement.”
“What kind of agreement?” he asked, looking eager.
Serena said seriously, “You already know the only reason I married you was because Madison blackmailed me using my mother and the bar.”
Ethan nodded. “Yeah, I heard the whole thing. I get the part about your mother, but what’s the story with the bar?”
Serena sighed. “The bar is the key to whether I can take back the Blake Corporation.”
Ethan raised an eyebrow. “The Blake Corporation was your father’s?”
“He built it from nothing,” Serena said coldly. “After he died, my uncle schemed with outsiders and stole it from us.”
“That’s shameless,” Ethan said, his expression darkening.
“It is.” Serena continued, “Right now there’s a three-year competition to choose the next head of the Blake Corporation. Every third-generation member has to manage a business. Whoever performs the best becomes the heir.”
“And they gave you the bar,” Ethan guessed.
“Exactly.” Serena’s voice was icy. “The worst possible asset. And they assigned a bar — of all things — to a woman. Their intentions were obvious.”
Ethan laughed lightly. “Your uncle really doesn’t play fair.”
Serena looked at him with slight surprise. She hadn’t expected him to understand the situation so quickly.
“Who set up the competition?” Ethan asked.
“My grandfather,” Serena replied, her expression dimming. “He passed away six months ago.”
“At least the old man had some conscience. But your uncle was the one who assigned you the bar, right?”
“Yes.”
“Got it. So what’s the agreement you want?”
Serena took a deep breath. “The assessment period ends in three months. Once it’s over, no matter what happens, we get a divorce.”
Ethan smiled. “I see. Once the competition is finished, Madison loses her leverage, so you’ll be free to divorce me. But aren’t you worried you might fall in love with me during these three months and won’t want to leave?”
Serena sneered. “Fall in love with you? I’d fall in love with a pig first.”
Ethan’s eyes lit up mischievously. “Oh, so you’re into pigs?”
Serena punched him in the arm. “Since you’re not objecting, I’ll take that as agreement.”
“Actually, Serena, I have a better idea.”
“What?”
“We can get divorced right now,” Ethan said, “but pretend we’re still married in front of everyone else.”
Serena’s heart skipped a beat. That was a much better plan. She would be mentally and physically free, while no one outside would know.
“You’re really willing to divorce me right now?” she asked.
“I am. But I have one condition.”
“What condition?”
“Before we divorce ... you have to sleep with me once.”
BOOM!!!
Serena nearly exploded with rage. I almost forgot what a shameless lecher this guy is!
“You bastard! Could you be any more disgusting?!”
Ethan thought for a second and added, “And you have to wear black stockings.”
Serena wanted to bite him to death.
