Chapter 0328
I hadnt been with anyone else in almost a year , she told him .
It was only one other guy before that … She sniffled and wiped her eyes .
Y… Youre the only one … she stammered as a sob escaped her lips .
She was too hysterical for Ethans liking , and he stared at her with disgust .
He pulled out his wallet and grabbed a few hundred dollars .
He threw it at her face , making her flinch as she watched the bills fall lazily to the ground around her .
His cold words left her speechless .
Get rid of it .
He drove off , leaving Stella speechless and brokenhearted .
Ethan drove to the Landry residence , his mind clouded as he thought about what Stella had said .
Was she really pregnant with his baby ? Well , she wouldnt be for long .
Having a baby with a stripper would ruin his plans .
He had to make sure she got rid of that baby before it jeopardized everything , he worked so hard for .
Mr.
Cash , Adam the butler , greeted as Ethan walked through the front doors of the villa .
Adam , Ethan greeted , taking off his coat and handing it to the butler .
Ethan swore Adam deepened his frown , but he recovered it quickly enough that Ethan thought maybe it was his imagination .
Miss Irene isnt here right now .
But shell be home shortly , Adam said .
Ethan nodded ; he didnt care if Irene was there or not .
In fact , it was better that she wasnt .
He was there for one reason and one reason only .
Ill just wait in her room , Ethan said , excusing himself .
Instead of going to Irenes room , Ethan went straight to Gavin Landrys office door .noveldrama
He had been here the day before and he spent time picking the lock to the office .
And then he got the computer information his inside man needed to hack Gavins computer and unlock it for Ethan .
He went through it a little bit , and when he heard Irene nearing , he had to get out of there fast .
But not before he wrote down the password to get back into Gavins computer for next time .
He was pleased to see that the office door was still unlocked from his last visit .
That means nobody found out he broke in .
Not having to pick the lock again saves him time .
Ethan logged into the computer and smiled as the screen lit to life .
Lets see what inside information you have on this computer Alpha Landry .
Meanwhile , Irene had driven to Ethans house and was staring at the woman seated on the front porch .
Her face was buried in her hands as she sobbed .
Irene got out of the car and went to her .
The girl quickly stood to her feet and looked like a deer caught in the headlights .
Please , dont go ….
Irene pleaded , reaching her hand out .
I need to speak with you .
The woman , now Irene recognized as Stella Airborne , nibbled on her lower lip , her eyes looking anywhere but Irenes face .
I … I shouldnt be here … Stella whispered hoarsely .
This isnt the first time youve been here , Irene said softly .
It wasnt a question .
Are you saying youve come here twice by mistake ? Stellas face reddened .
I … Stellas voice trailed off .
After a long pause , Irene sighed .
Would you like to get some coffee or something ? Irene asked .
Theres a coffee place nearby , and I think we should talk .
Stella was about to decline , but something about Irenes face and the look in her eyes made her submit right away , so after a long pause , she finally conceded and nodded .
She stood and went with Irene to her car , leaving her own car behind .
The drive to the local coffee shop was quiet .
It took about 10 awkward minutes .
Both Irene and Stella wanted it to be over quickly , and they counted down each minute as the drive continued .
At the coffee shop , they ordered their drinks , and Irene was adamant about paying .
Stella only got water though because she didnt think caffeine would be good for her unborn baby , though she kept her reasonings behind the water a secret .
