The Billionaire's Unexpected Proposal by Samantha

Chapter 148

Ethan's mind was racing, his heart pounding with frustration as he drove away into the night.

How could this be happening?

Rayna... Golden Sun?

The thought kept spinning in his head, and the more he thought about all their conversations and how well they had synced, the angrier he became.

He knew something was off. There was absolutely no way this could have been a coincidence. How else could he explain that of everyone who had applied, she had been the only one to refuse to give her real name or even show him her pictures?

She had to have known he was the one, even though she had been pretending not to know the whole time. She had deliberately lured him in and seduced him into falling for her.

How dare she be the woman he had fallen for? All these while he had spent his time talking to Rayna?

This had to be some kind of setup. And he had a pretty good idea of who might have been behind it. Ethan's fingers gripped the steering wheel tightly as he drove down the quiet streets toward his brother's house instead of his.

He pulled into Melvin's driveway with a sharp jerk, barely able to keep his composure. He slammed the car door shut and stormed up to the front door. The moment he walked inside, he found his brother lounging on the couch, scrolling through his phone like he didn't have a care in the world.
