We were still in the car when I got another call. It was from father. For first time in like 3 years, I think. I picked up the call and said "Hello father?" Father just sighed in another end and said "Where are you right now?" I quicky answered "I'm going to office right now. Some thing argent came up. Why?" "Your mother has decided to divorce me." He spoke. I can't hold back my shock. It was predicted from the start that at some point my mother was going to divorce my father. But she also knew right now the situation is already a big mess. My marriage, Julian's divorce and his pregnancy, my pregnancy. But on top of that she is also going to divorce father. I sighed and said "Let's talk about it later." And hung up the phone.
When we came at the company all of the employees as usual bowed and greeted me. I just nodded but after we left, I know they must have whispered about my pregnancy and all. Ethan just walked beside me without any care of the world behind us or before us. On the way to the guest room, I met up with Raphael he looked worried and anxious. He greeted me with a worried smile as he said "Mr, Sullivan, guest…" "The guest what?" I asked. He gulped as he said "is Ms. Riva." I was shocked for a moment. Ms. Riva is one of the most top CEOs of the companies. She is here and on top of that creating problems. It is like a misfortunate dream. I sighed and said "I will handle it."
The next moment I found myself in front of the guest room with Ethan by my side. I wanted to take care of the what-ever business with Ms. Riva myself. I turned towards Ethan and said "Ethan…I" "I know, I will wait for you here. If you need anything just call me." I smiled and planted a soft kiss on Ethan's lips. His eyes widen of a moment before he smiled and kissed me back with a soft kiss. I entered the guest room after that. The moment I entered I sensed the air shift. Ms. Riva was not an ordinary figure she was one of the gems of this country. If was actually not even from this country but who knows if she is or not. All we know about her is that she is a powerful underground queen, who is an orphan. Ms. Riva sat in the sofa. Her red unique hair scattered across her shoulders and her white suite highlighting her amaretto skin. She was elegant and liberated air of royalty in each sip she was taking of her coffee.
I smiled my business smile and said "Greetings, Ms. Riva" Her eyes scanned me for a moment before she smiled and said "Greetings, Mr. Sullivan." I quicky sat opposite to her and asked "May I know the reason why you are here?" She put her cup down and said "Well, it is about Christine." Ms. Evan?? How does she know Ms. Evans. "Pardon?" Ms. Riva just sighed and said "Christine was my half-sister." How?? That is… "Your half-sister??" I asked. She shook her head and said "I thought she was my half sister until recently one of my men did DNA test and turns out that she is not blood related." She spoke. I was just surprised by the fact that Ms. Riva considered Ms. Evan as her half-sister. But why is she telling it to me. I gulped my nervousness as I asked "And, may I know why are you telling it to me?" "I need your help." She spoke. I sighed and said "You got the wrong person. I don't have any power—" "I know, I need you husband's support to be honest. I know, it doesn't matter how much I begged, request or threaten him. He wouldn't listen but, it turns out he can't turn a blind eye of his wife request. That's why I want you to convince Mr. Caldwell to help me." She sighed and got up. "It is up to you now." Saying that she exited the room.
I sighed and met up with Ethan on the outside. His face said that he was not in a very great mood. I sighed and said "Ethan, Ms, Riva said that she needs—" "Wife, do you know what she need help with?" Well… He was right. I don't know what she wanted help with. I just know a few things. I lowered my head and said "I…I don't know." Ethan kissed me and said "Ms. Riva was actually the one person Ms. Evan was interested in. At first, they had a sisterly relation but later it progressed to something bigger. When she found out that Ms. Evans was not her sister. She wanted a marriage but the Evans declined their marriage. If she wanted, she could rag a war and eliminate Evans but she decided to do it other way and asked me to pressure Evans to marry her and Ms. Evans. I rejected because do you know one of the suspects of my drug incident?" "It must be Ms. Riva" I said. He nodded and said "That's why I rejected her until now. But Now I have seen that how she even approached my wife for it—" "No need. And I think it would be great if you helped her." I spoke. Ethan sighed and said "Wife, you don't understand. It is not that I don't want to. It is that I can't." "Why?" I asked. "It is because the moment she marries Ms. Evans the power Dynamic would shift and Evans who has the Underworld Queen as their daughter-in-law would gain even more power than Caldwell." He spoke. "Then why did they reject their marriage?" "Because they thought that the relation between Julian and Ms. Evan would work out. But anyways don't ever get involve in their mess. It is really complicated." I nodded silently.
After the conversation. I worked for a bit in the office taking care of important files while Ethan sat there in my office just staring at me. After that we got back into our home and started his werewolf session again.
