“What are you going on about? I really don't have time for this.” Adrian said nonchalantly, opening his car door and attempting to get in but Ethan spoke up again, stopping him in his tracks.
“I'm sure Vivian will love to know that you're fucking her daughter and also fucking her.” Ethan's eyes grew dark as sinister thoughts enveloped his head. A slight grin tugged at the corner of his lips as he watched Adrian slowly get upset.
“You’re no better than me Ethan, you seem to forget that you're also sleeping with Vivian, or need I remind you?”
Ethan scoffed at Adrian's words, unfazed by his attempt to scare him off. He had a mission and nothing was going to stop him from achieving it. Shaking his head, he let out a chuckle and placed his hand on top of Adrian's car.
“You've got nothing on me, Adrian. But I have you right where I want you. You want to marry Vivian, right?” He paused, seemingly disgusted by what he had just said. He pushed his head back and scrunched his nose.
“Although I'm curious about why you want to marry her. It's for the money, isn't it? Well, whatever your reason may be, I'm sure it's important and you wouldn't want to ruin it.” He continued, making sure that he stared Adrian dead in the eye. Adrian was visibly upset, he rolled his tongue around in his mouth, trying to withhold himself from punching Ethan across the face.
“Now listen here..”
“No you listen!” Ethan interrupted, his expression becoming threatening. Adrian was reared up, but he kept his reactions in check, he wanted to avoid getting physical at all costs.
“You're old enough to know what your priorities are, so you better set them straight and make the right decision. If you don't stay away from Scarlett, I will tell Vivian about your sexcapades with her daughter, and trust me, I'm not bluffing.” Ethan warned with an intimidating glare, his eyebrows furrowed.
Adrian found himself in a difficult situation as he stared at Ethan. He knew Ethan wasn't just issuing him a threat, the desperate boy was actually going to spill the truth to Vivian if he didn't do as he said.
But how was he supposed to choose at this point? He had not accomplished the mission he came into Vivian's life for, he still had a long way to go and Vivian breaking off their relationship was going to ruin everything he had planned for years.
His careful plotting and patience would all be for nothing and he couldn't watch years of work go down the drain. Then again, he couldn't see himself leaving Scarlett. He had fallen deeply in love with her at this point and leaving her would not only hurt him, it would break him.
What was he supposed to do now?
He took one final glance at Ethan before getting into his car and driving off, he refused to say a word to him. Ethan, who was satisfied with the information he had passed on to him, smiled to himself and went back into the penthouse.
While he was driving back home, Adrian got a call from Vivian and although he was in no mood to speak to her, he answered the call anyway.
“Adrian, can you come to the hospital immediately? The general hospital.” She said, shocking him.
“Hospital? What for?” He wondered.
“To get your erectile problem looked at. I found a doctor who has years of experience in this kind of stuff.” She replied and he mouthed a ‘fuck’, instantly regretting his lie.
He only told her that lie to get her off his back but it seemed to have backfired and if he doesn't get to the hospital, she'll find out that he lied and that would make room for more truths to be revealed.
“I'll be there.” He answered after giving it a lot of thought. He sighed deeply, turned around, and headed to the hospital.
Vivian was already waiting for him in the doctor's office and when he arrived, the doctor took him into the examination room where he gave him a thorough check-up.
“Aren't you supposed to have an erectile problem?” The doctor asked, scratching the back of his head after he was done with the examination.
“I can't find anything wrong with you and you seem perfectly active.”
“I don't have any problem doc, I just.. I have reasons and I'd like you to keep this secret. You have to tell her that I do in fact have an erectile problem.” Adrian pleaded, hoping that the doctor would play along but he sighed.
“You want me to lie? That is against my ethics.”
“But this is a life or death situation and I need you to understand. Just go along with it and I'll take care of everything else. Look, she wasn't supposed to bring me to the hospital, I wasn't expecting it but here I am. Just help me out.” Adrian continued to convince the doctor who eventually gave in.
“Fine then.”
They left the examination room, joining Vivian in the office where the doctor told her that he would prescribe some drugs for Adrian. She thanked the doctor and they left.
“I'm going to do whatever it takes to make sure that your condition is cured because I miss having your fat dick in me.” Vivian winked at Adrian as they walked out of the hospital.
Just then, Adrian got a phone call and told Vivian that he needed to leave immediately. They entered their cars and left in different directions with Adrian going to meet the person that called him on the phone.
Adrian got to his mansion and met a tall, stern-faced woman standing by his door. Her long, black, and straight hair covered half of her face and she wore a flowy, black dress which gave her a sense of mystery. A cold aura surrounded her and there wasn't a single trace of emotion on her pale, pretty face. She looked like she was in her 30s, but in reality, she was forty-five years old.
“Aunt Carrie!” Adrian called out, running to the woman who spread her arms apart to receive him. She smiled, but only slightly as Adrian threw himself into her arms, hugging her passionately.
“I've missed you. Why didn't you tell me that you were coming over?” He asked after breaking away from the hug.
“Well I had a few businesses to take care of in town so I decided to drop by to see my favorite nephew and also visit my sister's grave.” She replied and Adrian sighed.
“Do you want to go there now?” He questioned.
“Come inside, let me make your favorite first. After we eat, we can go there.” She smiled again and led the way into the house.
He joined her in the kitchen, helping her to prepare the scrumptious meal which they ate and then headed to the cemetery where his mother was buried.
As soon as they got there, Carrie dropped the flowers she brought with her on top of the grave and let out a heavy sigh. Adrian put his arm around her as they both stared at the grave.
“She didn't deserve to die,” Carrie muttered, her eyes welling up with tears.
“She was so sweet, so innocent. She never hurt anyone, but she had to pay the price for someone else's sin.” She sniffed and Adrian slowly rubbed her arm in a bid to console her.
“Adrian?”
“Yes, Aunt Carrie.”
“I hope you never forget how your mother died and the people that caused her tragic death. I hope you never forget how much your mother, my sister had to suffer before her demise.” She looked up at him, he was struggling to hold his tears back.
“The Davenport family must pay for what they did to her. I hate that name with every fiber of my being and all I want is to see their ruin! Promise me that you won't rest until you accomplish our mission.” She sniffed again, her eyes red with fury.
“I swear on my mother's grave, I will not rest until I see the Davenport family fall to their ruin.” He said, his hands folded into fists and his eyes instantly dimming.
They left the cemetery soon and Carrie went back to work while Adrian called Scarlett.
“Hi, baby!” She chimed.
“Scarlett, are you home?” He questioned, his tone was cold and distant.
“Yes, I'm home. Is everything alright?” She quickly asked, picking up the uneasiness in his voice.
“Everything is fine. I'm coming over.” He told her and hung up.
Overjoyed, Scarlett started to clean up the house in anticipation of Adrian's visit.
Soon, Adrian arrives at the penthouse and Scarlett can't wait before jumping on his lap and smothering him with kisses.
“Where's Ethan?” He suddenly asked, disrupting what he was doing.
“He left hours ago after begging for my forgiveness.” She scoffed and started to kiss him again. Adrian had his hands on her ass, letting out sighs as she slowly began to turn him on. He couldn't help but get hard.
“Scarlett, I need to tell you something important.” He whispered but she didn't stop kissing him and rubbing his cock.
“Whatever it is, I'm sure it can wait.” She moaned into his ear, causing him to shudder. He almost lost himself but he gently pulled away from her and sighed.
“We can't continue this affair, Scarlett, I'm in love with your mother and I want to marry her.”
