Chapter 104



immediately Ethan walked into the room, his heart started pounding like a drum as he was expecting to see what serenity has been hiding from him.

Upon hearing the door pushed open Serenity spun around, immediately her eyes widened when she saw Ethan standing behind her.

"Ethan?"

she squeaked, her mouth hanging open.

"What are you doing here?"

She couldn't find the courage to meet Ethan gaze.

The embarrassment was becoming too much for her to handle.

without wasting anymore time Ethan's eyes darted to the bed wanting to see the friend serenity was lying about.

At that moment he was expecting a young lady but to his surprise, it was an older lady, laying on the bed with her face looking pale and weak.

immediately his eyebrows shot up to the top of his head as he turned back to Serenity. Find your next adventure on empire

"Is this your auntie?"

he asked, his voice soft and filled with confusion, because Mr Davis said she came to beg for her friend, but she is seeing an older woman, definitely this can't be serenity friend but an auntie.

with a curious voice he added.

"Is she going to be alright?"

Serenity nodded, but her lip trembled and her eyes looked scared because what she had been trying to hide from Ethan earlier would be exposed.

"She'll be fine,"

she said, but it sounded more like a question than an answer.

Ethan's heart sank as he looked at the woman once more, she didn't look that expensive, and he couldn't see she wasn't putting on anything expensive or such so definitely she's not serenity auntie.

However he decided to delete the thought from his head for now, because one thing is for such serenity really want to save her and that is the most important thing now.

"She looks really bad,"

he thought, chewing on his lip.

"I'm so glad I told Mr. Davis to give her the best room, meaning she would also be getting the best treatment. She needs all the help she can get."

At that moment Serenity fidgeted from foot to foot, her hands twisting together in a nervous manner as she gazed at Ethan. "Ethan, can we talk somewhere private?"

she asked, her voice barely louder than a whisper.

She really wants to explain everything to Ethan knowing he might be thinking he lied to her which she doesn't want.

Ethan nodded, and they stepped out of the room, closing the door gently behind them, not wanting to disturb the sleeping lady.

As soon as they were alone, Serenity almost burst into tears.

"I have to tell you the truth."

she sobbed, her shoulders shaking. "I'm completely broken because I had to split the bill with Noah at the restaurant. you know it was a million dollar, Ethan! A million! Noah said his parents would ground him for months if they found out he spent that much money all in one day.

They'd be so mad at him and for the fact he did it inside the Winston restaurant would make his father really mad at him, because of the Revelry going on."

She sniffled, wiping her nose with her handkerchief.

"He begged me to help pay half, so I used up all my allowance and all my savings. Every last penny to help him pay half of the bills."

Ethan's jaw tightened as he listened to what Serenity was saying, he knew Noah had a hand in all of this, the proud fool decided to trick Serenity into his mess that he created for him.

Serenity's chin wobbled as she looked up at Ethan with big, watery eyes.

"And the lady who got hurt, Miss Johnson, she's not really my auntie. She's our maid and one of my close friend. She was coming to pick me up because I couldn't afford a cab home. Noah had to leave for some emergency, and I was stranded."

At that moment She forced herself From crying, her face turning red and blotchy.

"I don't have any money, Ethan. None at all. And I can't ask my parents for help. They'll be so angry with me, if they also fine out what I spent the money on, and my friend might not be getting proper treatment, I don't want anything to happen to her because of me."

Upon hearing what Serenity just said Ethan's heart broke into a million pieces as he watched Serenity fall apart. He couldn't believe Serenity would be going through all of this because of the part he played in all of it.

At that moment his jaw tightened.

"This is all my fault,"

he thought, feeling sick to his stomach.

"If I hadn't ordered such fancy, expensive food, the total amount wouldn't have gotten to that high, and Serenity would still have her money and Miss Johnson wouldn't be hurt in the first place, it's because of me, I played a part in everything"

he said to himself.

He reached out and patted Serenity's shoulder, trying to comfort her.

"Hey, don't worry,"

he said, giving her a small, hopeful smile.

"I played a part in all of this, so for that reason I'll think of something. It'll be okay, I promise your friend will be alright."

Ethan didn't want to give Serenity a straight answer.

Serenity sniffed and nodded, but she didn't look convinced because she knows Ethan doesn't have much, and the Bills she was hearing was huge and Ethan can't afford it.

However she didn't say anything But walked back into the room, upon entering she was frozen when they saw the empty bed her friend was gone.

"Where's Miss Johnson?"

Serenity asked, her voice high and panicky she feared the worst had happened.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Just then, a nurse popped her head in, with a big smile on her face. "Oh, your auntie got moved to the VIP section,"

she said, like it was the best news ever.

"She's getting top-notch treatment now."

Hearing what the nurse just said Serenity's jaw dropped almost hitting the floor. She turned to Ethan with a surprise look.

"What? How?"

She mouthed, too shocked to speak properly.

Before Ethan could answer, Mr. Davis appeared in the doorway. He didn't seem to notice Serenity standing there, his eyes fixed on Ethan.

"I did what you asked, Mr.Ethan." he said, puffing out his chest with pride.

"The patient has been transferred to the VIP ward, just like you wanted."
