Chapter 43 Stirring up the trouble

Jean felt that something is wrong with him.
"Hey you fine".
"Yes a little bothered that's it" he replied.
"What made you bothered boss" she asked happily while she is thinking about Aria's expression when she will get to know of this. Will she feel jealous and open up or stay calmed so Nathan will panic and open up by himself. This incident will fasten her mission to couple them. She failed to anticipate the hope developing in Ethan's voice.
Scott who is seeing this is beyond angry on both of them. Why is she giving him false hope. Is she trying to break his heart.
"Jean will you help me in this helpless position."
"What is it Mr. Ethan" now she became aware of upcoming event. Scott will be so enraged now and she felt guilty.
Ethan became sad by her sudden politeness. May be she don't have any feelings for him. But he came this far so he decided to confess. He came across table and kneeled in front of Jean with the ring in his palm. It looked similar somehow.
"Will you be my girlfriend I will cherish and worship you as long as you stand with me. I will pamper and love you unconditionally until our death separates us . I will not let myself stop following you till you agree to marry me." Hope glistered in his eyes.
Now she got to know why the ring looked similar. Because Scott has given her same type of ring when he asked her to marry him. He once said her that it is family heirloom given a mother to her son's so they can purpose to girl whom he really loves and want to marry her making her next mistress of household. So it means they have to be brothers and the lines he said now resembled to Scott's on his proposal day.
She is not angry that Scott didn't say her that Ethan is his brother but she is angry because the words they used are clearly same. There are only two ways, firstly Scott should have given him this idea which is not possible.
So it is clear that the words these both used are some other's idea.
"How can you copy the lines from others Mr. Ethan Summers." She gritted her teeth stressing the word 'Summers'.
"You… how do you know I copied this lines and for the gods sake how come you know I am summers" He stammered a lot in middle of his words clearly stunned.
"Huh.. Why don't you ask your brother about that. Enjoy having fun Summers. "She angrily stomped out of room.
Ethan mind went blanked he couldn't arrange Jean's words in order where as Scott sat perplexed in his chair. This is his fault he should not have asked his grandfather for advice to find a catchy and emotional words to purpose. Who would have thought that this old man will suggest same pickup lines to Ethan also. He should talk to that old geese for causing trouble in his love life.
Jean use to tease him saying that she loved his proposal lines and that is the reason she agreed to his proposal. But they didnt say about this incident to anyone not even their friends. Both of them decided to announce it after her revenge so it will not stirr up trouble. Now she will be so angry on him. How can anyone blame him he is not expertise in this field like his grandfather.
After twenty minutes he saw Jean saying something to Kim while she took her bag and left with stoic face. The more calmer she looks the more enraged she will be.
Scott hurriedly cancelled all his meeting for two days including this day's and left the office. Kim can see that he is worried and scared which is so rare to seen. Ethan who saw his brother going followed his suite by applying leave for two days and left to elite residences.
Kim who got the perfect time sneaked away from company to meet his lady boss after announcing that CEO is in leave.
