Forced Marriage: My Wife, My Redemption by Lilyheart

Chapter 10: 10 Doing him a favour

In the early hours of the morning, Ethan sat on his desk in the guest room, his laptop before him as he studied

every information of various top psychologist and doctors in the country who may be able to help Davis regain

his confidence and possibly his legs.

It is clear to everyone that Vera left Davis but then she had gone with a crucial part of him. The emotional wound

on his heart is so painful that it now hinders him in seeing the good in him and Ethan worried about his

deteriorating attitude which is increasing by the day decided to bring it to stop but then it needs a process to

achieve the desired result; he had always known Davis as a strong man who is able to weather any storm but the

situation before him baffles him.

He couldn't bear to see him lose his life over things that he can remedy should he sit back and think clearly but

no—Davis has decided to drown himself in alcohol everyday making his health issue more complicating. He had

ensured he scared all the maids and helps in the house away even the butler isn't spared.

With this reason, Ethan made a decision —Davis needs a psychological counseling and he will make sure to

secure one but then the question is will Davis agree to attend counseling? He was so engrossed that he didn't

notice his phone lying on bed up light up severally because it was set in a silent mode.

After a while, he stood up to pick his phone and schedule an appointment for Davis and the phone lit up again.

Looking at the familiar ndancing on the screen, Ethan planned to ignore the call yet reasoning made him

answer the call.

As soon as the call connected, the indifferent voice of Desmond Allen filtrated through the phone "it seems you

don't want to answer the call but not to worry | only called to deliver a message", he drawled.

"Never knew it was ringing", Ethan clipped though he had intended to ignore the call.

"Your boss's wife is coming hthis morning, | have sent the family butler to convey her back and the Allen

family lawyer Jeffrey will be arriving for them to sign the marriage certificate."

Ethan felt his blood boil, "What do you benefit forcing him into the marriage?" His tone icy.

Desmond laughed over the phone, "you worry yourself so much about Davis marrying a wife. He is already

crippled and getting him a wife is to alleviate the burden of him going to search for one. Isn't that good?" His

tone mocking.

"Getting a wife for him when you took his fiancée for your son aren't you contradictory? Ethan asked, his voice

dripping with disdain.

"Ethan, | am doing him a favour as an uncle because the way out of every heartbreak is a new relationship.",

Desmond smirked and ended the call not waiting for his response.

Ethan stood rooted at the sspot, thinking over and over again on Desmond's words. His opinion struck a

chord within him and he decided to go with flow. Looking at the tit is sminutes past the hour of six and

her arrival should be in three hours time.

After the incidents at the hospital, Ethan quietly and discreetly did a background check on Risa who had always

been known as the eldest daughter of the Brown family. . The result cin briefly —stating her as pampered

daughter of the Brown family.

Pacing his room as he studied the report on Risa, he couldn't help but worry if such a pampered lady will be up to

the challenge that lay ahead. With a click the door shut behind him as he made his way to the study.

Pushing it open, he entered and found Davis sitting on his wheelchair with his back to the door. The photo frame

in his hand as he stared into the distance, his face expressionless and his lips pursued. Ethan walked up to him

and took away the frfrom him placing it on the top of the shelf. "Give it back", he thundered.

Ethan sighed "Well, your wife from the Brown family is coming in today". As the last syllable left Ethan's lips

Davis threw the glass cup in this hand against the wall and shattering sound echoed through the mansion. The

maids doing their morning round flinched instinctively.

"That's more like it." Ethan muttered. He had long developed immunity to Davis's anger and tantrums. If he had

stayed calm without a reaction it might have worried him more but then his reaction still shows his sensitivity

which is a good sign.

"Be careful, you might scare her away and then you will die lonely", he said lightly as he moved to nearest sofa

and settled down.

"Ethan, the last t| checked | was still your boss but these days..." He queried.

Ethan scoffed "Really, but as far as | can remember my boss died in a car accident".

Davis rubbed his brow his frustration evident. Since his return for the past few weeks Ethan had gradually picked

an irritating way to talk to him. He had tried persuading him but then when it's not yielding results, he stopped

persuading him.

"So, she comes in and what next?" Davis asked with a glint in his eyes.

"Alright, | will break the steps for you, Jeffrey will cover this morning by 8 for both of you to sign the

marriage certificate and then you both live together as husband and wife."

"I don't want to see her." Davis clipped.

" q SE

background check on her." He

dropped a stack of files on his lap but

then he flung it away without care.

"Alright, you aren't interested in taking a view? Then | will go with it", he said calmly and strode out of the study

to arrange the arrival.

At 8 in the morning, the Allen family lawyer Jeffrey cin, the butler ushered him to the study where Ethan had

argued with Davis until he agreed to sign the papers but on the condition that he wouldn't meet her and they

can only be married on paper.

After signing the papers, the lawyer returned to the sitting room to sit down and wait for the bride who had been

confirmed to be on the way but the sound of the car engine turning off announced her arrival.

Ethan gulped at the sight before him while Jeffrey was curious as they both looked at each other and then the

lady before them.
