The Billionaires Mistress

Diana's POV

I walked down the staircase to find Ethan standing there with River in the living room. So I decided to join them.

"What's going on," I asked, picking up a book off of the sofa so I could sit on it?

"River will be staying with us and if anyone asks we will say she is a friend. I will explain to you later Diana," He said, giving me a stern look and I simply nodded.

He was off lately, he no longer kissed me and rarely ever acknowledged me.

"How are you doing River," I asked, and she put a strand of her dirty blonde hair behind her ear?

"I'm doing fine," she smiled, warmly.

"Good to know," I said standing up," let me show you your room."

"Ok since you two are getting along perfectly I am going to work." Ethan smiled at River.

Which got me thinking the worst but I let my mind not wander.

He would never do that.

I took her up the stairs and onto the second floor near my room since the house was three floors.We walked down the hallway and finally got to the guest bedroom.

"This is your room and I will call Jenny to come help you organize your stuff," I explained, patting her on the shoulder.

"Ahh, I actually I do not want anyone to help me. It's a really simple task actually." She shook her head and I decided to let her do what she wants because I couldn't stand her presence.

"Ok," I replied, nodding my head as my phone vibrated in my pocket.I slid it out and answered already knowing it was Emma.I asked her to do background research on River.

I did not trust her one bit.

"Hello,"I answered steadily walking out the room so River would not suspect a thing.

"Mrs.Scott I want to see you in person to tell you what I found out. I am at the cafe near the hospital," she said jittering from fear and I felt nearly ready to explode any minute.

"You have been on this case for two weeks what have you been doing,"I asked, climbing into the car?

"Mam I think I should really see you in person," She answered for the second time nervously.

"Ok ok," I replied, angrily pulling up to the cafe, grabbing my back from the passenger's seat and heading into the cafe.

I sat right across from her before crossing my arms."Talk now because Ethan will be back soon."

"Ok.I suspected that you and River have the same biological mother," she answered in a clam down and my jaw literally dropped.
