Chapter 422 - 170: A big secret

Morgana was brought to her room by Luigi, unconscious. She suddenly fell sick after receiving a blow emotionally after learning from her mother's conversation with Ethan that Ethan is married. The fatigue from all the traveling and the tension mixed together with emotional distress due to suppress feelings made her sick. When her sister realizes that as her emotions are somehow connected to Morgana she hurriedly supported her and let Luigi carry Morgana back to their room. Simone and Arriane followed them, as they get inside Simone and Arriane sat on the edge of the bed after Luigi walked out of the room after laying Morgana down on the bed.

Simone: Sweety, tell me what happened to your sister? How did she suddenly get sick? She was okay I while ago. 

".... Mom, my sister is tired, she hasn't had much rest since we started doing the task. Actually, she just came back from Germany after she completed her mission there and she has to fly the night hawk as we rushed back here to find out what happened to our employees and help save them. And then, she heard from your conversation with Ethan that Ethan is married. So... Arriane shrugs her shoulders and didn't continue explaining knowing that her mother would already catch up after she mentions Ethan's name.

"..." Gasps, do you mean to say that your sister is still in love with Ethan???? Oh my.... How stupid of me. I actually forget that your sister and Ethan used to...... Simone gasped after hearing Arriane's explanation, she didn't expect that Morgana is still in love with Ethan and her as Morgana's mother even forget about it. How could she be so stupid and unfeeling to hurt her own daughter by inviting those people over for dinner? It would be torture for her daughter to face Ethan and his wife.

Oh, my..... I think I have to call the Etnomas and cancel the dinner invitation with them, Simone sigh as she added, feeling regretful for she didn't even ask her daughter's opinion over this matter before she invited Ethan and his wife over to share a dinner with them.

" mom, you don't have to cancel, my sister has to face this in order to get over with her feelings for Ethan. She can't continue escaping and avoiding him forever. Just because of Ethan, she endured not seeing you for a few years. For once, she will have to face this and we will help her get through it. Arriane said determined as she watched Morgana even breathing.

".... But how? I mean, your sister is sick, how is going to have dinner with us? Simone asks Arriane feeling confused

".... I already have her take a recovery pill, she will feel better after a few hours rest. By the way, how are the kids doing? Where is Eric??? Arriane changes the subject after answering Simone's question and reassuring her that Morgana would be okay after a few hours rest.

Oh, okay I will entrust your sister into your hands, please do take care of your sister and let me know when she does up. Eric and the other children are in the children's room playing, we don't want them to leave the house for the moment for their own safety. Simone then stood up after asking Arriane to take of Morgana and answering her daughter's question, she opened the door and walked out of the room quietly so as not to disturb Morgana's sleep.

Arriane didn't answer her mother, she just sat there watching her sister's face.

Meanwhile, Ethan went back to their house, the house next to Marcus' ancestral house after having a short chat with Marcus and Armando, seeing that they have an urgent matter to discuss, he decided to leave and go back to their house to tell his wife and his parents, that Simone is inviting them for dinner.

He and his current wife is living in L.A in the house where he and Kate live before he just visits his parents who are now permanently staying in Brooklyn. His father was the one managing the detective agency that he established with Brent and Marcus while Marcus is working at the pharmaceutical company. Brent, on the other hand, managed the main office of their detective agency in L.A.

Son, where have you been??? Your wife has been looking for you everywhere. His mother asks him when he saw her reading news articles in the living room.

" Ah, I went over at uncle Marcus' house, I thought I saw uncle Armando arrive with aunt Simone's other daughter so I came over to have a chat. Ethan answered he then asked his mother about his wife and tell her about Simone's dinner invitation; " ah, Mom...... Where is Julie Ann??? Auntie Simone is inviting us for dinner tonight and I think that we need to prepare something for them. By the way, can you tell Daf about aunt Simone's invitation when he comes home? 

".... Oh??? Simone is inviting us to dinner??? Ahm, Son... Is she back with Armando and her sister? His mother query as she was referring to Morgana.

"...."

Ah... Yeah, she's with them. It's just that, she didn't even bother to turn around to look at me. I guess that she already knows that I am married. Ethan said sadly as he thought of the woman who was standing with her back on him beside Simone. Even if he didn't see her face, he knows that it was her. His heart is telling him so, unfortunately, he doesn't have the courage to walk over and talk to her because he is a married man now, and the responsibility and relationsh.i.p.s he has with his wife is different from the relationship he had with Kate.

" Son, I know that you still love her, and I think that Julie Ann will understand. Why not talk to your wife about this matter? I'm sure that she will understand if tell her. Roxelle, Ethan's mother said as she saw the sadness in his son's eyes.

Mom!!! Don't ever mention it ever again, especially to Julie Ann. She is pregnant and her condition is not good. I know that she will understand but, I don't want her to be upset it might affect the baby. When I marry her, I already made up my mind to stay by her side as her husband even if it would mean that I have to sacrifice my own happiness. Ethan said to his mother before he turns around to look for his wife.
