“I see…” I said softly.
“We didn’t meet much when we were young and even less so when we grew up. I definitely wasn’t thrilled at the idea of having my life partner decided for me and I bet she felt the same way. We both tried our best not to get involved with each other’s lives and not to get in each other’s way. That was like our silent agreement. Everything was fine, until Hayden turned up…” Ethan said before his tone darkened.
“Hayden?” I said questioningly.
“Yeah. Do you want to see Hayden again?” Ethan asked.
“I…” I began saying but then I hesitated.
I did want to see him again, but I wasn’t sure if I should tell Ethan that.
“Do you, or don’t you?” Ethan asked.
The way his evil green eyes were looking at me told me that he already knew my answer and he probably had everything figured out already. Ethan would never approach me unless there was something that he wanted. That was just the person that he was. He’s handsome, charming, kind…and extremely manipulative.
