Chapter 41
Ethan was just about to join Dr. Inoue and Dr. Kimura when Nathan called him out of a blue. The omega never wanted to have any sort of contact with his family even if he was his older brother but no one from his work knows his family issues. Nathan approaches his younger brother as if nothing happened, he is aware that Ethan didn't know his involvement with what happened to him three months ago.
"Good evening doctors, my name is Nathan Aoki. Older brother of Ethan, is it possible for me to talk with my brother?" asked Nathan.
"what are you doing here brother?" Dr. Kimura and Dr. Inoue didn't have the chance to reply since it was Ethan who talked first.
"well, I was asked to pick you up after work since Grandpa and Grandma Aoki were at our house tonight. They wanted us all to have a family dinner, it has been a while since we had dinner with you too"
"hmn....if that is so then I think we can just reschedule our dinner for another time Ethan. It is important to have dinner with your family from time to time you know, so for now, I would have a date with my love" said Dr. Inoue who cuddled Dr. Kimura in front of Ethan and his brother.
"that…I think so…fine, I'll go with you but can we stop by a seafood store? I want to eat some shrimps" Ethan contemplated for a while before he agreed to go with his brother. He cannot just reject Nathan in front of his seniors which is why he had forced himself to go with him. One reason why he doesn't join any family dinner was that he doesn't want to see his own mother and sister who made him sleep with his brother-in-law. Up until now, he doesn't know the reason why they did that, that one night resulted in him being pregnant after all.
Ethan then said his goodbyes to both Dr. Kimura and Dr. Inoue, due to the fellowship training that he is undergoing he became closer to Dr. Inoue who is like an older brother to him. Everyone in CGH treats him very well, none of the staff there see omegas as a lowly kind but rather they respect them in any way possible.
"Ethan…" Nathan couldn't take the silence between them, during the whole ride none of them said a word. They are even done buying the shrimps that Ethan was craving for but none of them utter a word after that.
"what?" asked Ethan, it is not like that it's his brother's fault that he is in a bad mood but he just couldn't shake the feeling that he was about to fall into another trap.
"How have you been doing? You haven't visited the house since that night"
"I'm fine, even if you don't check on me I'll live so I don't need to go to that house and see Elise ever again"
"Ethan! How could you say that?"
"What? Now I cannot say anything that I wanted to say? That house became a nightmare to me ever since that night. If only you knew what Mom and Elise did" said Ethan to his brother. He still doesn't know that Nathan knew everything but he had decided to turn a blind eye about it. He wanted to say sorry right at that moment but he didn't dare to say it.
The two finally arrive at the Aoki residence where Ethan was hoping that after the dinner he could leave that house. But upon entry, he expected to hear the voices of his grandfather and grandmother in the living room but none of them were there. He then thought that they might be at the dining area waiting for them but they aren't.
"where are they?" asked Ethan to his brother but he didn't reply anything rather he directed Ethan to go back to the living room. Once they reach the living room, Ethan saw his parents and his sister, Elise, along with big guys behind her.
"Hello Ethan, it's been a while," said Elise
"Elise…Brother Nathan, what is going on here? I thought grandpa and grandma are here for a family dinner" Ethan grab his brother's collar as he questioned him but what he got was Nathan's guilty face.
"you did great older brother, now since our dear younger brother is here, you two hold him" Elise then ordered the two guys that were behind her. Those two were strong-built beta bodyguards that father Aoki hired back then. Those two then hold each of Ethan's hands carefully not to hurt him in any way since he is a pregnant omega.
"Wh-what are you doing?! Let me go!" Ethan then knew that something is not right.
"take him to that room and make sure to put the shackles on his feet so that he won't be able to go out."
"ELISE! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING TO ME!"
"Shut up Ethan, you will know later so shut your mouth" Ethan was then taken by the two beta bodyguards to the newly renovated unused room at the very end of the corridor. No one uses three of those rooms even if they have a lot of guests that would stay overnight. They had it renovated into a soundproof one so that even if Ethan shouts from inside, no one from the outside could hear him. The room next was connected to it was for the bodyguards to stay in, they even place a CCTV in all corners of the room just to watch what Ethan was doing.
Once everyone reaches the room, the bodyguards did what Elise told them, one of them puts shackles on one of Ethan's feet. And then they also place a bracelet on Ethan that has a GPS locator in case Ethan gets out. Although they knew that Ethan doesn't have a chance of getting out since the door would be lock from the outside while the windows have it's own locks from the outside as well. They made sure that Ethan would not be able to go out of the room unattended.
"Now then, explain all of this! What you are doing to me is against my will so if I were you release me!" shouted Ethan.
"Ethan…son…please calm down, you are pregnant, and too much stress would affect the baby," said mother Aoki which shock Ethan.
"what…How did you know…URGH!" There was only one person who knew about his pregnancy and that is Dr. Jessica. He never thought that she would do that to him, her own friend, and her husband's friend as well.
"Well, I heard from a pretty bird in CGH that you are three months pregnant now. Which means that baby is mine and Hideaki's baby" said Elise with a wide smile.
"Your and brother-in-law's baby? HAHAHAHA!!!! It seems like you hit your head after hearing about my pregnancy from Dr. Jessica. This baby was indeed created on that night that YOU made me sleep with my brother-in-law. But as far as I know, I am the one pregnant with his baby which means this is my baby and not yours, sister Elise. Brother-in-law even told me that night that he wanted me to get pregnant, your husband planted his seed inside me with the purpose of getting me pregnant. SO IT IS MINE AND HIS BABY! NOT YOURS!" As he heard the claim of his sister with her wide smile, he then made it clear that it is his baby and not hers. It was like he was rubbing salt on his sister's wound by reminding her of that night. No one in the house had the courage to remind Elise of what happen that night since it became a taboo topic to her.
SLAP
"How dare you say that! THAT BABY IS MINE! I LET YOU CONCEIVE MY HUSBAND'S BABY ONLY FOR ME TO TAKE IT! SO DON'T EVEN DREAM ABOUT OF CLAIMING THAT IS YOUR BABY!" Elise slaps Ethan as she heard what he said.
"Elise! Calm down and you too Ethan you are pregnant so you better not stress yourself out!" Mother Aoki was shocked when she saw her daughter slap Ethan. She doesn't want her children to get into fights especially now that Ethan is pregnant with her son-in-law's baby. Making him miscarriage is not something that any one of them would want to happen.
"HAHAHA!!! WOW! You are worried about my baby, how generous of you Mrs. Aoki! In your eyes, there is only my sister and brother and now that I have the baby of my brother-in-law inside me you will show care to me? The son whom you never put your eyes on? HAHAHA!!! LEAVE! NOW! If you don't want me to get stress then LEAVE ME ALONE!" shouted Ethan to his own mother. They might be blood-related but he is aware that his parents never really cared about him. They would only show their love and affection whenever their grandparents are there.
Everyone in his family along with the bodyguards that they hired left Ethan all alone in the room. He collapses on the ground as he cried, he kept on asking himself what he had done to them that they would treat him like that. He wanted to call Ken and ask for his help but he just didn't know how to explain his pregnancy. Ethan felt so alone like his world was collapsing one at a time, his only hope was Ken and he prays that after all the ordeals he is facing with his current situation, he would be together with his love again.
