The Billionaires Mistress novel Chapter 64

River's POV

"Diana you have to stop."A familiar masculine voice said from behind me and I turned my head slightly to lock eyes with Ethan.

Ryan arrived shorty after him but all I could focus on is whether or not I was going to make it out alive, if we were all going to make it out alive.

"It's to late for that Ethan.You're not mine anymore and the only way I can make you mine again is to get rid of the problem."Tears found their way down her cheeks as she pointed the gun towards my heart.

I closed my eyes from all the fear that consumed me and sooner then later a loud gun shot was heard but I didn't feel anything. I was still standing unless it wasn't me.

My eyes flew open to find Ethan lying on the ground covered in blood.

Tears began to stream down my face like a waterfall,"No no no no, please Ethan wake up.You can't do this to me."I yelled running my hands through his hair.

"Im on it."Ryan assured me taking out his phone.

He groaned and his eyes fluttered open,"You will be alright.You got me.You will find somebody else and love somebody else."I shook my head because he of all people should realize how difficult that is for me.

"I can't do that.I won't do that Ethan.Your my one and only love."I barely managed to reply because it was as if he knew he was going to die.My heart was tearing. Every inch in my body wanted to scream from all the pain I was feeling at the moment.

"I will always be with you.Every step of the way."He smiled and then his eyes closed once again.

"No no please Ethan stay awake, stay with me please."I begged as Ryan ran toward us trying to find a pulse.

He looked up at me and his eyes were filled with so much despair I knew what he was going to tell me."River he's um dead."

I couldn't help but crying, that was the only thing I could do at the moment and I hated it.

Ryan cleared his throat handing me a piece of paper,"He told me to give this to you if things didn't work out as planned."I shook my head.

River,

If your reading this it means, I didn't make it.You have every right to be mad at me but I would rather die then live in a world where there isn't the love of my in it with that comes innocence which I cannot describe.Love which consumes every inch of you and everyone who gets to know you.Kindness which makes you put everyone first. Intelligence which makes everyone around you question there selves. Ambitious, compassionate, affectionate , valiant, generous, these are just a few of the words that describe you and when I met you each one of them had meaning to me because of you.Before I met you I thought I knew what love is but there's a difference between loving someone and being in love. I'm in love with you River and call me selfish but I couldn't do it.I know it may seem impossible at the moment but you have to move on for the sake of our children.My heart will always belong to you.

Love, Ethan
