The Great CEO's Wife is a Gangster 176 CHAPTER 176: LETS BREAK UP

***
She has to be tough. She needs to show resilience and audacity. If not, these media folks might overwhelm her. they do not need to know who she is. She knew that they are just trying to find holes against Ethan.

"How about you mister? Don't you have some things you are hiding as well?" Aisha threw him his own inquiry. "I believe my life is not an open book. Besides, I am not a celebrity nor a business tycoon so I hope you'll respect my privacy." She arduously stated.

"The questions that we are asking were few and easy ones. Are you perhaps covering up something?" the man doesn't have any plans to back out. "aren't you afraid that someone might expose your little dirty and dark secrets?" his tone seems to know something.

"Mister, are you threatening me?" she tuned a murderous tone. "One advice, be careful with your words especially if you do not know the person you are talking to. You might regret it in the latter." She warned. "My identity is not your concern. So please, stop messing around."

The man stepped back. Dang! this woman looks so gentle on the outside but she is a lioness in the inside. He thought.

Aisha was about to walk when she saw the media folks rushed past her. Her eyes followed them and spotted a familiar man. Ethan! Her eyes widened. Then she heard them asked the same question they inquired a while ago. why are they asking him about her? as if Ethan will tell them the truth.

"She is indeed Stacy's twin sister. but we don't have any relationship." He stated then he walked past through Aisha as if she didn't exist. The reporters can't ask him any further since his security guards and the hospital personnel stopped them from entering.

Aisha was rooted to where she was standing. Although she knew that Ethan has to say such but can't he at least look at her in the eyes? Dang! what's with this guy, seriously?

Then Aisha entered the hospital premises after Ethan went in. She wanted to chase him so she could talk to him but almost all the hospital staff's attentions were on them. she needs to act right. she needs to pretend that they don't know each other, that they just met because of Stacy. Ah! How hard it is for her. now that the people knew about her existence, she must be very vigilant on her surroundings every time.

She saw Ethan entered the elevator so she waited for it to close. She'll just wait for the next one.

"Aren't you coming in?" Ethan raised his brow after pressing the elevator button to prevent it from closing. She was taken aback. She thought Ethan wouldn't want her to go with him. "I believe you're going to see your sister too."

"Ehm." Aisha nodded then entered immediately. It was just the two of them inside and it was hell silent so Aisha tried to speak up. "Ethan…" she mumbles. However, she didn't hear any response. She was upset. So she faced him and unconsciously, she held his arm.

"Ethan, can you tell me what's wrong? If it was about our argument before, didn't I say sorry about that? How long are you planning to ignore me, huh?" She burst out.

"Miss Mikasa, isn't this what you've asked? And now I'm giving you the space that you want." Ethan replied while looking at her coldly. Her heart ached. He called her miss Mikasa, is it the end of their relationship? Then her mind recalled all the things that she said that day. she gulped at her memory.

"E-Ethan, you know that I didn't mean any of those words. I'm sorry!" a tear escaped from her eyes. "I'm sorry, I wasn't on my right mind that time." she held his arm even tighter. Then they heard the elevator beep before it opened. Ethan immediately step out, Aisha followed.

"Ethan!" she cried at his retreating figure then she fell on her knees. She was crying. Ethan can hear her sobbing along the hall so he halted. His heart stings as he listens to her wailings.

"Aisha, I'm sorry but I think we have to end whatever we have right now." Aisha suddenly jerked when she heard his preposition. Wait, is he breaking up with her? she looks up but she can only see his back.

"Besides, Stacy is already here. I don't want you to have any misunderstanding because of our relationship. Stacy and I are still married in the eyes of the people even if the marriage certificate is fake. And since they have discovered your identity, you will definitely be subject to their ridicule. If people sees us together, they won't just destroy me, they will also drag you down." he paused then he faces the woman.

"Don't get me wrong Aisha, but I'm doing this for your sake and for the people around you. don't worry, I'll talk to Stacy soon." He continued.

"E-Ethan… are you breaking up with me?" she was rattling as she speaks. Ethan suddenly looked away. Although he won't speak, Aisha already knew the answer to it.

A few minutes engulfed them both.

That moment, Aisha was thinking. Ethan was right, he is still married to Stacy in the eyes of the people. if they discovered about their relationship, he will be ruined for sure. then she touches her belly. "I'm sorry little pumpkin, I'm sorry." She whispered silently. After some careful considerations, she stood up, wiped her tears and faced Ethan. She tried to mask her sadness with a bright smile as she looks at Ethan who seems to be in daze as well.

"Ethan." She tried to get his attention. If they will end their relationship here and now, they must do it the right way. Surprisingly, Ethan saw the woman smiling when he stared back at her. Is he really ready to let this woman go? after everything they've been through? He doesn't want to but he needs to protect her and Stacy as well.

"Ethan. Although we only had a few months together, I still want to thank you for all the things you did for me especially the unconditional love you gave me. meeting you and Eli was one of the greatest blessings I ever had." She was trying to hold her tears.

"I just want to tell you that I'm sorry for everything. Sorry about those painful words. Please know that I didn't mean any of them." she exhaled an amount of air.

Ethan on the other hand, was listening intently. seeing her smiling while saying those words brought him restlessness. Seems like he knew where she's going.

"Ethan, let's break up. Let's end whatever relationship we have right here, right now." She was breaking inside while saying those words. A single tear trickled down her cheek. So before she even breaks down, she strides past through him.

"Aisha…" Ethan mumbled but he dares not stopped her. He knew it was coming but he never expected it to cause him great distress. His heart was shattered with the thought that their relationship ended just like that.

His heart squeezed as his eyes followed her retreating figure. Damn! He cursed then he harshly kicked the wall that it nearly sprained his foot. Dang! it hurts like hell. His heart was shattered but all he can do is to restrain himself. This is for her sake anyway. yes. he must think that way. It's for Aisha and Stacy's sake. He thought then after a few minutes, he left the hospital premises.
