His undying devotion

Irene Hensley, the Daughter of a director fell in love with her junior at school-Ethan, who loved her dearly. Having strict parents, she had a hard time dating him. "Ethan, let's break up," One day, Irene said despite feeling pain inside and forced Ethan to part ways. "I understand. I hope you won't regret today's decision and remember my words." Those were the last words he said to her before leaving. However, ten years later, she broke free from her family's confinement and decided to live for herself without getting married. After several attempts, she got accepted for a job where she ran into the company's CEO. The face looked awfully familiar yet foreign as she felt nostalgic and her loud heartbeat. Being suspicious, she observed every move of the CEO, who turned out to be the person she thought he was-Ethan Marc. He later sent a marriage proposal to her home and they arranged everything without Irene's opinion. ___ "Didn't I say I'll never let you go? Was my words a joke to you? You'll pay for the words you said by staying with me." Ethan pinned her down to the bed while whispering in her ear, "The soft guy you knew is long gone." ___ Even though Irene and Ethan were able to start anew, another devastation of their relationship is soon to appear. When there are optimistic times, there's also desperation which was no different in Irene's life.

Resignation? No,

"I swallowed my pride," Ethan began speaking as I sat across the table from him. His gaze was fixed on his fingers resting on the table. 

"It was right after we separated. He came to me, offering me a place to stay since I had no one else to reside with." As Ethan uttered those words, my heart shattered into pieces from guilt and regret. What if I had fought my fear and accepted him that day? Would things be different?

"At first, I thought he must've been a kind uncle, but I wondered why Father never mentioned him," Ethan continued. "It was after two days I realized he wasn't a kind man, but a power-hungry man who was ready to do anything to keep his position."

I kept listening to his words, trying to capture every detail in my mind while he spoke with a dejected expression.
