Chapter 9

Ethan and Theresa had gone up that morning wondering if they will ever be the same way again, the feeling that they had shared in the past few days.

Theresa: Ethan, I'm afraid that we will never be able to be together for the rest of our life. Alistar will never give me the divorce, and I will have to do the same thing as my father live in a lie.

Ethan: I will have to fight for you we will have to take you away from this mansion and run away

Theresa: You know that Alistar will never leave me alone it seem that man has some eyes all around his head and he has people working for him.

Ethan took Theresa in his arm and knew that she was right. He took her face in his hand and said: I will do anything to make sure that you are mine.

They took their bags and went to their own car, Theresa turned around ran to Ethan and kissed him passionately: I see you tonight my love.

After hours of driving, they arrive at home almost at the same time. Theresa walk in and Pilar was waiting for her.

Pilar: Hey, sweetie how was the getaway, you look great and you even have some colors back and you are smiling again.

Theresa: well I had a excellent time and I had the chance to share that time with someone that I can't not reveal the name.

Pilar: Okay I won't ask but I hope that you see more of that man.

Theresa: Well I'm counting on it.

Gwen notice that Theresa was home and that she was all smiles

Gwen: Hey Theresa you look like a million dollar, but I can't wait for Alistar to see you he will take the gloat away.

Theresa didn't listen she keep her smile and look at her mother hoping that she could tell her mother what happen in the last days.

Ethan walk in and Gwen rushed to his side and kissed him but Ethan turned to face Theresa that was all smile.

Gwen: So how are you felling? I hope that you are well rested cause I have made reservation at the seascape for dinner.

Ethan: Gwen there is something that I need to tell you, can we talked in private, second thought you are comfortable around anybody I will just come out and say it. I have been blind and hurt. We were all fooling our self about love and that love will concur all. Well Gwen I have tried to understand what you meant by you love me. You don't love me the same way that I love you. You love me because you want to keep me away from Theresa and the real love that I should have known. I was blind to believe that I could have spend the rest of my life with you and that to believe all I was doing is to hurt you and me by believing that our love was true.

Gwen: I really love you and if you want to work on those emotion and feeling that you have right now, we will get help, but as for the love that you are searching for, as you said it" You love me because you want to keep me away from Theresa and the real love that I should have known." I will help you Ethan.

Ethan: I don't want your help all need is the true love that have inside of me that I want to share with someone special. Gwen I want a divorce and please don't try to talk me out of it. Here's the paper please sign and I won't make it hard on you.

Gwen: WHY? You are in love with that little bitch?

Ethan: Don't call her name, she is the mother of my child Gwen and you should have respect for Theresa she the one that gave you Jane you spend most of the time with her and please don't do anything stupid like trying to run away with her again.

Gwen: I don't want a divorce and if you want her that much please be with her. I will make a deal, I will give you the divorce that you want, if Alistar give Theresa her divorce. Is that a deal?

Ethan: No it not, you will sign the paper and that is final.

Gwen notice that Ethan was serious and that there was nothing that she could do to change is mind, he was in love with her and all along he didn't love her.

Pilar walk up behind Gwen: (whisper) If you don't give Ethan the divorce right now, I know where Alistar keep the documentation and I will not be shy to give Ethan the real identification that you are the one and your mother that set up Theresa.

Gwen: Prove it, you don't know anything Pilar.

Alistar: Well well well , what going on here?

Theresa: Ethan just ask Gwen for a divorce and she refuses.

Alistar: Well Ethan my son, I guess that you finally found the truth that it was Gwen and her whore of a mother that send the information to the tabloid and not your precious Theresa. She was telling you the truth all along.

Ethan: I knew that Theresa couldn't do anything like that to me and that I had no choice to marry Gwen because she was carrying Sarah at the time. But I have should listen to you Theresa you are the one that was telling the truth and to believe all those year, when you where telling me something I didn't believe you and I believe her, I'm sorry.

Alistar: Well now that you all know the truth. There is something that you all need know while I was a business trip, I have meet someone and she make me realize that love do exist and that there is a life after all. And I don't need to hurt people to make me happy.

Ethan: Now Gwen you better signs those paper, since that you tell me that you had not send the information to the tabloid and that it was Theresa all along. You are the one that was lying to me all those years, and by the way if you really need to know the definition of the word honesty look in the dictionary.

Theresa: So Alistar will you give me the divorce?

Alistar: Yes, I don't know what I was thinking when I married you, I was evil back then and I need to apologize for the hurt that I have cause you and Ethan. I knew that if I did not married you, you would have ended up with Ethan. Can you please forgive me?

Theresa: I just want to say that it does look good to see you smile. I wish you all the happiness in the world and please treat her right.

Theresa went over to Alistar and kissed him on the check. Turn over to Ethan who was waiting for her with is arm open, he kissed her.
