Chapter 87: Choice

Start from the beginning
                                    

"What should we do, CEO Ethan?" Secretary asked anxiously.

Ethan tensed up as he pinched the space between his eyebrows before asking,

"Can we find out who's behind this?"

"The Martinez Corporation has been growing rapidly in recent years. Plus, we've made quite some enemies, so it's not easy to find out who did this," Secretary said in a worried tone,

"CEO Ethan, we should come up with a solution now before things get worse. Otherwise, it might develop into something like the orphanage matter last time!"

Ethan leaned against the backrest of the chair as he switched on the computer and surfed online.

His face was strained. After that, he suddenly took a deep breath. His eyes seemed broody and hesitant. Then, he opened the drawer beside him and took the marriage contract out to flip through.

He scanned each and every word slowly, his eyes in torment and his hands trembled. After mustering enough courage, he picked a pen up and swiftly signed his name before giving it to Secretary.

"Send it to the Civil Affairs Bureau, and announce to the public that I'm married to Victoria already. I suppose this can clamp things down."

Secretary accepted the contract from Ethan and stared at him in shock.

"CEO Ethan, I hope you know that once this matter goes public, Ms. Victoria and you..."

Ethan closed his eyes with a depressed expression.

"Just go. We've decided to get married anyway. With this declaration, I won't be abandoning her..."

True love...

Arya's slightly aloof, smiling face appeared in his mind instead whilst her laugh echoed in his ears.

Secretary paused before he glanced through the document and nodded.

"Okay then. I'll head over to the Civil Affairs Bureau right now. Should I inform Madam and the others to get together for dinner? Everyone wasn't really happy about what happened the other day. Well, they should be pleased about this," Secretary suggested.

Ethan inhaled deeply.

"Mmm, inform them. I'm heading out this afternoon and will be back pretty late. Tell them to not wait for me."

"CEO Ethan..."

"You can go now."

...

Arya went to the office early in the morning while Xavier went straight to Daniel's place.

In the evening, she received a call from the court and was told that her case was going to be on trial soon. Teacher should have been notified as well.

Arya knew that Olivia must have helped to expedite the process.

She did not know what Xavier had done to suppress the news. She only saw trending news or news from the entertainment industry in the papers. Arya was not really a famous person. With the exception of her relationship with Glory World and Benjamin, she was pretty ordinary, so it was not really difficult to let things pass on its own. However, Benjamin might be facing a bit more trouble.

Arya was thinking about giving Benjamin a call after she hung up on the call from the court, but her phone starting ringing before she could punch the number in. It was Mia!

"Damn, Arya, have you seen the news? Big news! Ethan and Victoria are married! They got registered at the Civil Affairs Bureau today. It's all over the news now! Ethan actually still decided to marry Victoria after her reputation fell to rock bottom. Now, everyone is praising Ethan's generosity. Some even said that this is true love..." Mia let her mouth run wild as soon as the call was connected.
