Chapter 18 Meeting Again
Ethan was already on edge. When his girlfriend started questioning him, his anger flared. "I should thank you for giving me a virgin, but somehow she got pregnant!" he snapped.
"How could this happen?"
Ava's face went pale. "Ethan, you're blaming me, aren't you? I'm supposed to attend the opening ceremony today, but I won't go. Ethan, I don't want to be a top star anymore. I love you, and I want to stay by your side..."
Ethan found it laughable. He pinched his brow in frustration, feeling bitter inside. "Ava, you shouldn't have done this in the first place. Now that things have gone so wrong, there's nothing left to say."
"Ethan, I love you, and I believe you love me too. Please don't leave me. I can treat her child as my own. Let's go public with our relationship and get engaged, okay?"
Ethan had been dating his girlfriend for three years, they had never gone public with their relationship.
She said it was taboo in the entertainment industry, but now she was panicking.
Michael, who was listening to his call, took the phone away.
"Ms. Lee, you've been dating my grandson for three years, but you've spent less than three days together. You are bound to be parted away. It's better to end it now. I'll send you the breakup fee later."
With that, he hung up the phone.
Ethan angrily said, "Grandpa, how could you take my phone and make decisions for me!"
"Ethan, you and Ava are not suitable for each other. You don't look like a couple at all; You are more like colleagues. Since Ashley is pregnant with your child, I'll start preparing for your wedding. You and Ashley look more like a couple!"
"Grandpa..."
Ethan's eyelids twitched wildly, his head ached, and he felt restless and uneasy.
Meanwhile, on the set preparing for the opening ceremony, Ava couldn't stay calm. She frantically told her agent, "Alice, I need to go back to Aurora. Please ask for leave for me here. I'll come back for reshoots."
Without waiting for a response, she didn't even pack her luggage and headed straight to the airport.
Ashley thought about it all afternoon and finally made up her mind.
She said softly, "Mrs. Yates, I want to talk to Ethan."
Katherine was pleasantly surprised. "Ashley, you've made up your mind? I'll contact Ethan right away. You two young people should have a good talk."
Ashley nodded.
Half an hour later, Ethan appeared in Ashley's hospital room.
Katherine left the room but warned Ethan not to be rough. Ethan suppressed his anger and looked coldly at the woman in front of him.
They hadn't seen each other for more than half a month. He had thought they would never cross paths again, but fate had a strange way of bringing them together.
"What do you want to say?"
Ethan said coldly, "You agree to marry me?"
Ashley looked at him in surprise. How did he know what she was thinking?
Ashley nodded. "I've made up my mind. I agree to marry you. Although you're a promiscuous gigolo, these two lives are innocent. I can marry you and give birth to them, but we need to sign an agreement."
Ethan raised an eyebrow coldly, quietly waiting to hear what she would say next.
"After we get married, you can't go out selling your body for money anymore. After the children are born, one will be yours, and one will be mine. Then we'll get a divorce..."
Ethan's eyes turned icy as he stepped closer to her. His powerful presence made Ashley involuntarily swallow and want to retreat, but she forgot she was sitting on the bed...
Ethan sneered, "You've schemed all this, yet you just wanted a contractual marriage and a divorce? Stop playing hard to get. It's boring."
"I don't understand what you're saying."
Ashley frowned.
Ethan hooked her chin, forcing her to look at him. "In my dictionary, there's no such thing as divorce, only widowhood!"
Ethan continued, "I've already agreed to take responsibility and marry you, but why are you doing this? Your tactics are despicable and shameless in my eyes!"
Ashley was utterly confused.
Ethan took out his phone, pulled up the news headlines, and threw it beside Ashley...
