Chapter 34: Chapter 34
Now it was one thing altogether to be seeing her in tabloids news and stories that just seem like petty gossip outlets, then a part of him could deceive himself that what he was saying was just a lie that it was only fiction.
He had told himself that if ever he was to cross paths with Agnes again he would simply walk past her like she didn't exist.
But here he was standing and still and stoic as a statue staring at her as if that was the first time he had ever seen her in his life and in a way it seems to be so.
Her hair had been styled in a wavy pattern and the dress that she wore was a designer special a black sparkling gown that pulled down to the ground and how the tearing that went up to her knee and feather fluffed hands.
A part of him and actually thought that the next time he will see her again she will be on the road with a bowl in our hand begging for assistance and help, then out of the goodness of his heart and the consideration of all times he will just casually through a few notes down in a bowl and drive past quickly in his car.
Then he wo-
"Do you mind you are standing in our way,"
It was when the man that came with Agnes spoke that Ethan was able to break his gaze from his ex-wife, but yet he was not able to move an inch still pinned down to the spot with shock it was at this point that his blonde date was finally embarrassed of him instead of the reverse that it had been all night.
So using all the force in her body she nursed him away pulling him with her arm that was crossed with his and given the couple that had walked in a chance to walk working properly.
"Sorry about that we were also just heading out too, you know."
"Heading out so soon but the party has barely even started when we both of you be heading out?"Agnes finally spoke when her eyes came down and saw the woman that had wrapped her arms with Ethan she gritted her teeth a bit.
He really had no respect at all for her they are barely even be legally divorced and he was already with another woman just how shameless could he get she straightened up the pictures of her face so that it would not show that he was irritated by the sight of him and that blonde and just went on speaking.
"We were actually just going to step out for a simple breather, it can be so suffocating and his party and we just wanted to take a little fresh air."
Ethan tightened his grip on the blonde and held her as if that was the moment that he had seen her the all night when he had just been dragging his steps with her he was holding her as if she was precious China that could break at the slightest Force when Charles was noticing that the scene was becoming far too tense, he pulled Agnes along with him.
"Come darling we have to go and greet the celebrants he is a good friend of my father,"
As they were going he casually turned back and smiled at Ethan.
"I really hope you are not running away Mr Moore I would like to see more of you tonight and your lovely date as well,"
Ethan felt like he was about to implode from the inside and then the blonde kept hugging him by his shirt.
"Did you hear him just now? called me lovely isn't he so nice?"
"Then why don't you just leave me and go to him if he is so wonderful and nice?!"
He said snapping at her with venom in his voice as he spoke she quickly shrunk like a shirt that has been forgotten in a washing machine.
"I am sorry I didn't mean it like that I just thought he was really nice an-"
"Can you just shut up you are getting more and more irritating as the night passes by,"
The blood decided that our best option was just to keep her mouth shut at this point he had been able to snag one of the if not the richest billionaire in the country to boot he was handsome too who cared if you had a rotten personality? All her friends are going to be so jealous when they found out that she had been with him and he would buy her even more expensive gifts.
So she will tolerate all of this after all she had been treated worst before so this was nothing at all it seems that that might have patience was meant to be tested as he kept pulling her around following the couple that had walked in and crossed paths with them he didn't seem to be able to take his eyes off a woman in the black gown.
At one point she began to wonder if she was even a person or an ornament just a piece of decoration that he was dragging around with him finally it came from the time for people to dance and she hoped that with this he will pay more attention to her.
But the reverse seem to be the case as he became even more distracted and most occasionally stepping on her toes so the points that she got relieved when they exchanged partners and she ended up with a man that had called her lovely earlier and as for her date she couldn't trace him.
Ethan couldn't believe when he found his ex wife of all the women at the party swept into his hands and he did his best to maintain a stoic face.
She equally had a blank expression and just glided in his arms without a word but when it was time to switch.
He refused to let her go.
