Chapter 17: A Beautiful Family


    Arriving at The First Diamond Hotel, Samantha hurriedly distanced herself from Ethan Wright.


    The idea of a girl in a sweatshirt walking with a tall and handsome man in a custom-made suit just


    did not sit well with her. She said to Ethan, "Excuse me, Mr. Wright, do you mind... If I get changed


    first before having the meeting with you?"


    She gulped down her own spew right after expressing her words, fearing for what he might think.


    "Why are you walking away from me, Miss Davis? We clearly came out from the same car and


    entered the hotel together. Why are you standing two meters ahead from me?" Ethan probed after


    seeing Samantha walk ahead of him.


    He turned to John and asked, "Is there something wrong with my face, John? Miss Davis seems to


    be ashamed of me."


    While John Garcia turned to Samantha with ring eyes, Samantha reasoned, "Oh, no! It''s not


    that!"


    Samantha wound up chuckling and said, "It''s really not that. You just look so great and I - I am


    sweating all over in my jogging attire. I did not want you to be bothered by it."


    She immediately pointed to the lift and asked, "Can I go now and I promise, I''ll just take fifteen


    minutes! Then, I''ll be back!"


    Without warning, Ethan walked towards her and nearly closed the gap between them. He took out


    his handkerchief and wiped the sweat off her forehead. He said, "Your sweat doesn''t bother me."


    Following his deration, time practically froze when the great Ethan Wright wiped off the wetness


    on Samantha''s forehead.


    Everyone else seemed to have zoomed in on them.


    From behind the scene, John Garcia thought he was ready to faint!


    The receptionists that were working that day, including the same girl who aided Samantha when


    they first arrived, Cindy, also saw the remarkable scene. They all had their hands over their mouths,


    seeing how their boss was being affectionate with the new chef!


    Aside from the number of eyes that were piercing through her body, Samantha, on the other hand,


    felt her heart raced. Her eyes widened by Ethan''s actions and she found herself gulping repeatedly.


    Realizing what he had done, Ethan pulled back his handkerchief and swiftly turned in the direction


    of the lift, and said, "Let''s go."


    "Um... to where?" Samantha asked after returning to her senses.


    "Let''s go to your condo," answered Ethan. "I need to give Kyle his request."


    "Kyle?" Samantha asked while hastily following behind Ethan.


    While pointing out what John was carrying, Ethan exined, "Your son sent me a message in


    W******p, telling me how you need an updated windows version."


    He nced at the puzzled expression of Samantha and said, "I figured, you might as well get a new


    laptop."


    Putting his hands in his pocket, he added, "Then, this morning. I thought, since you may be using


    this for work, it may be better for Kyle to have his ownptop. So I bought him his own."


    Samantha practically heaved, covering her mouth with her hands, and said, "What?" After pausing,


    she stated, "Oh, Mr. Wright. You really did not have to! And since when did my son in contact with


    you?"


    "Since we met... In any case, I already bought them. Theputer shop has a no return policy,"


    said Ethan with his stern expression.


    In front of them, John Garcia was utterly bewildered. Edgar never mentioned about a "No Return


    Policy."


    John wound up attempting to correct his boss, "Actually, Mr. Wright, theputer shop - "


    "There is a no return policy! I spoke to the owner himself!" Ethan cut off his words, seemingly


    understanding what John was about to say.


    "Right. Right, Mr. Wright!" John''s brows furrowed before he said, "Mr. Wright is always Right."


    Everything was happening so fast that Samantha could not think of a way to counter the


    eptance of theptops. She thought, ''How in the world am I going to refuse this? This is just too


    much!''


    "You are very generous, Mr. Wright, but," Samantha tried to object.


    "Miss Davis, your son looks like me. He deserves to have the best," answered Ethan.


    Samantha, "???"


    "Damn, boss. I wish I look like you too," John said, but after receiving that usual icy re, he took


    back his words. "But of course, I can''t be as good looking as Mr. Wright."


    Reaching her condo unit, Samantha reluctantly showed Ethan the way. She said, "You really did not


    have toe up with me, Mr. Wright. I am so ashamed."


    "Miss Davis, it is my will toe here with you and deliver the goods ordered by your son... who


    happens to look like me. Please... say no more," said Ethan.


    "Okay," Samantha answered before offering her hand. "I can give theptops to Kyle."


    Samantha practically saw how Ethan Wright''s face turned red, seemingly displeased. She guessed


    he wnated to give the gifts himself!


    She gulped, realizing her mistake but before she could say another word, Ethan replied, "Since you


    drank my water. Can I have a ss of water? I am very thirsty?"


    ''A ss of water? Doesn''t he drink only expensive water?'' She felt like she was trapped! She


    thought, ''Does this man really want toe inside an insignificant house?''


    Still, she understood what she must do, and it granted her to open the door. "Of course, Mr. Wright.


    Pleasee right in to my humble home."


    As soon as Samantha urged them to take a seat from the living room, Kenzie ran in their direction,


    calling out to Ethan, "Daddy! Daddy! You are here!"


    "Hi, Daddy! You brought me thetest windows?" Kyle asked, also running in his direction.


    "I did more than that, buddy," said Ethan. "I bought you and your mom aptop each!"


    "Woah! Daddy is amazing!" Kyle eximed. "We''ll share thisptop, Kenzie."


    "No!" Kenzie turned to Ethan and asked, "Daddy, I want a barbie house doll! A really big one!"


    Ethan turned to John and said, "Remember that."


    "Yes, sir!" John happily nodded.


    Samantha could feel her face flushpletely. Even her ears were burning.


    While she was so ashamed of how her kids were calling her boss their daddy, she swore she saw a


    smirk on the man''s face! Before she could analyze the situation, however, they all heard a crisp


    sound of shattered ss and it came from Diana Turner.


    "Oh... my... God," Samantha''s aunt reacted after dropping a ss down on the floor.


    "Um, Aunt! This is my boss, Mr. Ethan Wright," Samantha introduced. "Aunt, do you mind giving Mr.


    Wright a ss of water?"


    "Daddy is mommy''s boss?" Kenzie asked with her eyes twinkling as usual. "Oh, so that''s why we


    are secret kids, right Kyle?"


    "Right! That''s what I''ve been telling, you Kenzie," answered Kyle.


    The entire time, John Garcia was smiling from ear to ear. How his boss faked a thirst to get inside


    Samantha''s home, to seeing the beautiful children of Samantha Davis call Ethan their daddy,


    completely amused him.


    The best part was, Ethan Wright never objected to the children''s assumptions!


    John was utterly liking the idea of his boss, going down on his knees for a woman, and he felt it


    might just be Samantha Davis.


    "Aww... What a beautiful family, you are," John remarked happily.

    Samantha''s mouth parted, but was unable to say a word at everything that was going on. After


    seconds, she instructed, "Kids, please make your daddyfortable. Let me... take a shower."


    She figured they were going to pretend to be a married couple anyway, she might as well use it to


    her advantage in front of her twins.
