Love Slave to the Mafia Boss's Passion 18 novel Chapter 149

“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.

“Why do you want to know?” I asked cautiously.

“Because in the unlikely case that you do…I can make it happen…” Ethan said as he smiled knowingly at me.

“What would you want in return?” I asked directly as I narrowed my eyes suspiciously at him.

“I want you to seduce Hayden and make him yours. No matter what, you must marry him and become his wife…” Ethan said decisively.

“…huh? That’s not what you said when we met on the cruise at all,” I said in confusion.

“Did you honestly think that I would want you back?” Ethan asked with a small laugh.

Honestly, I didn’t care what he wanted…

“That’s not the issue here…” I said through clenched teeth.

“Sorry for giving you false hope, but I just wanted to see Hayden’s reaction,” Ethan admitted without sounding guilty.

“Don’t worry. I wouldn’t go back to you even if I could…” I said honestly.

Ethan was silent for a moment, and I started to regret my words. For a moment, I truly believed that I may have hurt his feelings. I may not love him anymore and there were many things about him now that I didn’t quite understand; however, back when we were together, he took care of me well and helped me in a lot of ways.

“Just for the record, I really loved you and enjoyed the time we had together. I really broke up with you because I didn’t want to get you involved in the mafia. Somethings happened and I had to return to Silva…and I decided not to take you with me,” Ethan explained and for some reason, I believed him.

“Ethan…” I whispered his name.

“It’s ok if you don’t believe me but I’m going to say it anyways. When I left you, I honestly didn’t want to get you involved. I never thought that the Torex old man would find you and drag you into this mess. Now it’s too late, you’re so involved, and you can’t get out of this anymore…” Ethan said regretfully as he shook his head slowly.

“I’m sorry about what I said…” I apologized softly.

“You don’t have to be. So…can you do it?” Ethan asked as his eyes stared at me.
