Rising from the Ashes The Heiress They Tried to Erase Novel

Chapter 1019 Chapter 1020: That had been eating at Ethan for a long while, and now he finally let it out. "When I'm grown, I'll never be that kind of man." He fixed his gaze on Maia. "Even if you've got your reasons for staying with him, a man like that's hopeless as a husband." Chris got the odd feeling that Ethan's words were aimed right at him, but he had no way to refute them. The whole thing left him seething inside. Kathie smacked her thigh as a memory of her own unhappy marriage from years ago flashed through her mind. She quickly added her voice to the complaints. "Exactly!

A fellow like that can't really call himself a man. Ethan, when you're grown, don't you dare turn out like him. You must be the kind of husband who stands by his wife and looks after her, you hear?" "I certainly will!" Ethan replied with determination, hoping Maia would understand his point. In his heart, he wished she would cut ties with the man who never came when she needed him and, better yet, file for divorce once she got out of the hospital. Now that JusticeBlaze-Hurst himself-was right there in front of them and likely to drop by often, the timing couldn't be better.

Ethan vowed to find a way for those two to push past the invisible walls between them and show his sister the kind of man she could truly count on for the rest of her life. Yet, Maia found herself matching Chris with the image of the man Kathie had just described. She believed Chris was truly amazing.

Only she was aware of these things, and that was all that mattered.

Even if thousands called him a scoundrel or a womanizer, his consistent behavior over time had proven he was someone she could trust for life. Meanwhile, Marisa felt her heart skip a beat as she listened to their talk. What exactly was Ethan saying right there in front of her? It sounded like he was telling her, "Marisa, when I grow up, I'll be a man who truly cares for his wife. You don't want to miss your chance with me..." Could this be a subtle way of showing his affection for her?

Marisa shook her head, scolding herself for letting her thoughts run wild-imagining Ethan in a sharp suit, down on one knee, asking for her hand. "Oh dear! Marisa, are you becoming a hopeless romantic?" she quietly mocked herself. "Yeah, Ethan, Kathie's spot on. I believe you'll turn out to be a great man someday," Maia said with encouragement. Ethan knitted his brows just a bit. He had been so clear with his point, yet it felt like Maia just didn't get it. He let out a deep sigh. "Of course, I'd never skip a chance to be there for my wife." Then, Ethan looked away.

Suddenly, Maia noticed her brother was lost in thought, brooding. She figured it was best to explain things later. If he found out her husband was Chris-the very man sitting beside her-it might be tough for him to swallow, not to mention Marisa was in the room too. . . .
