When we married,my family asked for no dowry.We gave him a car,a house and even shares in the company.My father taught him business.Every step of Ethan’s success came from my family,the Sinclair Family.
Now he had the audacity to say he had had enough?He called it charity?
“Ethan…”I said and my voice dropped low and went calm.“You’ve forgotten who you are.You’ve forgotten who I am.”
He seemed caught off guard by my sudden calm.For a moment,he stayed silent.But before he could speak,Natalie snatched the phone and spat,“Jenna,stop acting high and mighty.You’re not the Sinclair Family’s golden daughter anymore.Ethan doesn’t even want you.And your daughter will be some old man’s bride soon.Cry yourself to death if you like.”
I didn’t listen to the rest.I ended the call.
Tears ran down my cheeks,but my heart had gone cold.
I wiped my face,steadied my breath and with shaking fingers,I scrolled down my contacts.Soon after,I finally found a number I had never used.The encrypted line.
It rang once before a calm,cold male voice answered,“Special task force.Go ahead.”
