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.

Tan. Mel is right. Think about it: you put out the ad hoping for just a wife for yourself and a mother for your future kids, but you were lucky enough to find love and friendship. How many people do you think are that lucky? I think you should be able to forgive and forget whatever
