Ethan Extra: Stir Your Heartbeat 1(1/2)
Ah, there was a quarrel outside again, and he knew the reason without having to guess.
The so-called mother loved him on the surface, but deep down she wished he would die quickly. And the so-called father actually suspected that his mother was having an affair from the moment he came into the world and opened his eyes.
His name is Ethan Austin, he is the eldest son of the Austin family, the only son of the current president of the Austin Group, but he is also the least valued child.
"Is it because I have red eyes? Doesn't the little rabbit also have red eyes?" Every midnight, he would hide in his room and look at the bright red eyes in the mirror, "It's really scary, what if..." Without this
Just a pair of eyes.
Originally, Ethan's father planned to have another child, but after ten years of hard work, there was no news at all. He went to the hospital for a checkup and found that both parties were healthy. Because of this, all the cause and effect fell on one child.
He became a nightmare to his mother and a thorn in his father's side.
One morning, a woman who had not been to his room for a long time opened the door.
"Ethan, your dad is getting promoted today. Let's go out as a family to celebrate." The woman walked up to him and tried her best to hide the disgust and trembling in her heart, but the slender arm holding his still revealed it to some extent.
A little emotion.
He was a little hurt from being squeezed, but when he heard that he could go out, he felt happy from the bottom of his heart. It had been a long time since he had left this mansion.
"Mommy, is that okay?" He looked at the woman in front of him with a pair of red eyes, shining with excitement and hope.
The woman lowered her eyes, and even though hatred surged violently in her heart, when she raised her head the next moment, she still had a gentle and loving expression.
"Of course. These are the clothes Mommy bought for you. We are going to the banquet, but Ethan needs to be good and find a quiet corner after we go. Mommy will go and accompany Ethan after saying hello, okay?"
The woman handed him a set of clothes she had just bought. If her husband's senior management hadn't said that they had never met their son and wanted to meet him, how could she have agreed to take him with her.
He was very happy. After watching the woman walk out of the room, she hugged her clothes and cried silently.
Mommy is willing to take him out, has she gradually stopped hating him? He wants Mommy to hug him, and his uncle’s sister often holds her baby for a walk in the courtyard. He is envious every time he sees it.
Eyes sore.
Maybe it's because he's naughty, or maybe the color of his eyes is different from others, so mommy hates him so much?
His delicate little face dimmed. Not only Mummy, but everyone in the family seemed to dislike him. From the grandparents to the servants, stewards, gardeners and drivers, they always showed a kind of expression when they saw him.
Scared expression.
He doesn't want to be like this, he wants family affection and the love of his parents, so he will be better behaved.
Along the way, he didn't dare to move while sitting in the back seat, for fear that the two people in front would see him, hate him, and send him home.
Just like that, I kept looking outside the window, seeing so many buildings, such beautiful parks, and so many people.
They were obviously a family, and everyone outside was talking and laughing, but inside the car, it was eerily silent.
"Ethan, we're here." The woman got out of the car, opened the door for him, held his hand, and walked into the towering hotel in front of her.
He followed the woman in quietly and felt that the hand holding his was delicate but cold, touching the bottom of his heart.
Not warm, not warm at all. Don't you think mommy's hands should be the warmest in the world? That's what the book says.
The man's tall and straight figure walked in front without saying a word or looking back.
When the three of them arrived at the banquet hall on the sixth floor, a lot of people had already gathered, men and women, old and young, almost all of them came with their families. Ethan also found that there were many children as old as him, playing and playing.
, so lively, his blood-like eyes were dyed with a gleam of light, but the expressions of those who noticed him changed drastically.
The woman held his hand, became stiff for a moment, and then forcefully broke away.
"Ethan, you go sit on the sofa over there first, and mommy will come find you later." The woman pointed to the dark place under the stairs.
Looking at the woman's smiling eyes, he felt a sense of fear and fear for no reason, but he still nodded obediently, lowered his head and walked to that position, curled up in the innermost position and sat down.
His father seemed to be the protagonist today. In the constant chatting with everyone, he understood to some extent that his father was elected as a member of the United States Congress. He did not know how big this official position was, but he was filled with pride and pride in his heart.
"What are you doing here? Do you want to eat cake?" A pleasant baby voice somewhat restored his energy. He looked up and saw a very cute girl.
"I……"
"Ah, why are your eyes this color? It's so scary." When Ethan raised his eyes, the little girl's dessert plate suddenly fell on the glass table in front of her, making a harsh sound.
Precisely because of the noise around him, not many people noticed it, but it was still visible to people nearby.
"Hey, isn't this the child brought by Congressman Austin? That girl seems to be the daughter of the host of the banquet a few days ago."
"Little princess, what's wrong?" Someone came up and asked.
The girl's little body was trembling, and her big cute eyes were filled with tears. She pointed at Ethan and opened her mouth but could not speak.
"Blood eyes?" The adult who came forward was also shocked when he saw Ethan's eyes.
In Western countries, blood eyes are a symbol of the devil Satan and the embodiment of evil and blood. Everyone will avoid it when they see it. Unexpectedly, this child...
"Ethan, look at the good things you have done." A voice exploded with rage in his ears. It was his father. This was also the first thing he said to him in many years, but it also made Ethan feel the saddest in his heart.
of a sentence.
"What's the matter? Mr. Austin?" the host of the banquet stepped forward and asked with a smile.
Austin was furious. He thought that this son was not his. "It's okay, Mr. Edward. I'll leave today's banquet. He may be a little uncomfortable."
Edward looked at Ethan, and his expression also changed the next moment, but he quickly recovered, "It doesn't matter, since Mr. Austin has family matters, please do so."
"Thank you." After saying that, he stretched out his big hand and grabbed Ethan's arm, carrying him and disappearing from everyone's sight.
On the way back, the atmosphere in the car was even quieter than when he came in. Even at his young age, he could still detect the spreading anger that made him tremble.
"Daddy..." He spoke cautiously, trying to say that he had always been good and did not embarrass them, but he was frightened by the man's roar and was almost stunned.
"Don't call me, I wish you would die immediately. It's such a sin. How could I have a son like you?" Austin was a little angry and stepped on the accelerator completely.
A car jumped out in front of them and ran the red light. To be precise, it was headed straight for them.
When the woman wanted to scream, she could no longer make a sound. A burst of smoke and fire shot into the sky, like fireworks in full bloom in the center of the most prosperous street in Las Vegas.
Ethan felt a lot of pain in his body, it was extremely hot all around, and thick smoke kept pouring into his throat and nostrils, making him cough uncontrollably.
I opened my eyes and looked around. There was a bright red color and the smell of barbecue. Is this a car accident?
Closing his eyes again, he felt very tired. He really wanted to sleep like this without waking up again, and without having to face the sad looks of adults.
"Is there anyone? Please answer if you hear me. Is there anyone else?" It was a strong male voice.
"No, noisy..." He whispered softly, he wanted to sleep.
"Captain, there is another child." The person shouted from a distance.
"Rescue him quickly."
"yes."
When Ethan stood outside, he no longer knew what to think. His mind was very clear, but also chaotic.
He quietly watched the fire being put out, saw many people running around and screaming, heard the sound of gunshots, and saw a beautiful figure flash before his eyes, and then he was embraced by a warm embrace with a faint fragrance.
He hugged him, took him away from there, and put him in a car.
In his memory, his first impression of Bo Liangyin was that this woman was very beautiful, much more beautiful than his mother, and the look in her eyes when she looked at him was very warm, and there was something that made his heart beat faintly.
"From today on, will you be my brother?" In the warm flower room, the woman's voice was soft and warm.
He stared at her with wide eyes in surprise, "I am an unlucky child." After saying this, he no longer looked at her, just because he had low self-esteem. How could a person who could not even get the love of his parents?
Can get love from others.
"Don't be like this. You are a very cute child. My sister likes you very much. She has no family. From today on, let's be a family, okay?"
She spoke very seriously and sincerely.
However, he still didn't dare to agree easily, abandoning or something, he had had enough.
"Ethan, I will give you a platform to develop freely. The future is in your own hands. Believe me, you are not an ordinary child, and it has nothing to do with your eyes."
The words "Believe me" shocked him greatly, and he nodded.
After seeing what she said to those in the Austin family with his own eyes, he seemed to understand something. Nothing in the world or feelings can come by waiting. Only by working hard can you get the best reward.
And she is Ethan's future reward for the affection she has given him.
Sitting in a huge office, her facial features were soft, handsome, charming and elegant. Her closed eyes suddenly opened, revealing a pair of blood-like eyes, shining with a moving light.
"It's been a long time since I thought about the past." He whispered with hooked lips. The current Ethan is no longer the same person he used to be. This time he returned to Las Vegas to acquire things that should belong to him, even if he is not wanted.
People who admit it.
"Xiao Yi, prepare the car." He stood up, straightened his slightly slender body, raised his hand to pick up the suit jacket hanging on the back of the chair, and walked out of the office.
"Yes, Master." Xiao Yi nodded and followed him downstairs.
Under his instructions, the world's limited edition Ferrari sports car has been parked in front of a large house. This car was specially built for Ethan. The body of the car is inlaid with 999 natural South African diamonds, and the wheel bearings are radiating with the sun's rays.
Built, the only one in the world.
Standing in front of this house, he felt that everything was so strange. His handsome eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, but that's right, he was no longer a child of the Austin family. A few years ago, he understood that blood does not mean anything.
In the face of family ties without blood ties, blood ties are already a dispensable thing.
"Xiao Yi, open the door."
"Yes." Xiao Yi stepped forward and pushed open the carved iron door, then followed Ethan and walked in.
To be continued...
