Chapter 107

“We need to talk,” a voice reached out to Ethan as he stepped into the corridor. He turned to find Nathan there.

“I don’t think we have any business together,” Ethan replied curtly, his voice had an unhidden tinge of irritation.

Nathan’s expression hardened. “Why do you keep coming around?” he asked, frustration evident in his tone.

Ethan moved forward, closing the distance between them. “The only person who I have something with is Hazel and her kids. You…,” Ethan pointed at Nathan emphasizing his point,

“What did you say?” Ethan asked, having missed Nathan’s mumbled words.

“You have no idea,” Nathan chuckled lightly, a hint of triumph in his tone. He had sighed that certificate that night as the father of Hazel’s kids, now who had the upper hand? he gloated inwardly.

“If that’s all you’ve got to say, have a goodnight rest” Ethan stated drily.

Undeterred, Nathan pressed on, irritation lacing his tone.

“Why do you keep coming around? Even the kids are getting attached to you.”

“What’s it to you?” Ethan retorted, his tone challenging, unapologetic for the connections forming between him and Hazel’s children.

“You have a wife,” Nathan stated bluntly, his frustration simmering.

“Oh really, I do?” Ethan feigned surprise, his tone dripping with sarcasm.

“Thanks for pointing that out, I didn’t realize I was married,” he added, dismissively turning away.

Ethan’s arrogant demeanor grated on Nathan’s nerves. “You should stop now,” Nathan warned, his tone serious, but Ethan, maintaining his arrogance, continued walking away, unfazed by the man’s warning,

“It’s best you stayed away,” Nathan declared fiercely, his words cutting through the air. Ethan halted, his steps abruptly arrested by the intensity of Nathan’s statement.

“What did you say?” Ethan demanded his tone becoming cold as he walked back to here Nathan stood.

“Stay away from Hazel and her kids,” Nathan repeated, his tone louder and more resolute this time. The confrontation between the two men had reached a critical point.
