Ethan, however, seemed a bit melancholy.
Susan pressured him to claim Monica's baby as his.
Ethan looked at me with anticipation in his eyes. "Is there anything else you want to say?"
My lip curled in a quick sneer. "What's the rush? Liam is planning to make a big scene on engagement day. The engagement will fall through anyway."
Ethan seemed a little anxious. "That's not what I'm asking. I'm asking, do you really want Monica and me to get engaged?"
I looked at him, puzzled. "What does this have to do with me?"
Ethan left, shutting the door with a bang.
I smiled at the evidence that was just about complete in my hands.
On the day of the engagement party, I specifically bribed the security guards at the door to ensure they'd let Liam in.
When Monica emerged with her prominent baby bump, the guests' expressions varied.
But such occurrences were not uncommon in wealthy families, and the engagement of an adopted son to a daughter was not something shocking.
Susan, a tough and astute woman, helped Monica up to the stage and loudly declared that Monica was the daughter of the Norton family, and the baby in Monica's belly was Ethan's.
