"You better be a good judge,Ethan."His dad added.

He remained unmoving and unable to digest how his own parents can withstand to trade him for money.He weighs less than the assets his late grandpa had left him.Now,he understands why his grandpa left almost everything to him.It's because his own son and daughter-in-law are greedy for power and money whom his grandpa can't tolerate.Ethan gathered himself and nod to his parents.He saw how his mother's eyes glisten in satisfaction.

"You can leave now.I'll make sure what grandpa left to us will be on good use."He remarked as he turned his back to them but before they left,his mother said."That's a good decision,son.I know you'll put them in good use despite your incapabilities."

Ethan never looked back.Well,if Grandpa's assets will fall on their hands, he'll make sure that no one's gonna have it.He knows that he had enough savings to support himself once the assets will not be given to them and his late grandma had left him enough also without his parents knowledge.He can live.

With what happened,Ethan decided to head to the office even knowing that his heat is still going.He has taken his inhibitors and he already told his secretary to not accept appointments for the mean time.However,Amelia smiled at him nervously as soon as he entered is office.

"Sir, someone has been so eager to meet you."she said.Ethan's brows furrowed.

"Who is it?"He asked as he put his bag on his chair."He's from the Lu Company."As soon as his secretary mentioned the Company,Ethan froze for a moment before looking at her.He remained calm and composed.What is he planning now?

"What is he here for?"He asked again while taking a seat."He didn't mention anything yet as he wants to directly speak with you,sir.And he's a beta."she added.Ethan felt relieved but slightly disappointed but he shrugged the taught off.The alpha already rejected him and he only helped him out of being the only one who can calm him down.

"let him in."Ethan instructed.In a few moments, a man on a two-piece suit entered his office.His eyeglasses hide his almond eyes but is enough to be noticed.The man smiled at him."Good morning,Mr. Chen.I am Liam Kim from the Lu Company."He introduced himself as he offered his hand for a handshake.But Ethan sensed a sandalwood scent coming from the man.His body automatically shake and his breathing becomes uneven.Though the man saw how he reacted,Ethan ignored him as he pressed the intercom on his desk.

"A-Amelia.."he panted and his door automatically shut open revealing a worried Amelia.Amelia then escorted the man out muttering a simple apology before locking the door.She immediately assisted Ethan and lead him on the couch before pulling few tablets of Ethan's inhibitor.It is enough to calm him down since his heat is about to end.

"I guess you should head home sir.You don't have any important appointments in the mean time.I'll handle a few works for you."Amelia's worried voice said.Ethan nodded and Amelia then escorted him towards the parking lot where Aiden is waiting.As soon as he stepped inside the car,Aiden then drove off.Ethan can't help but think how the little amount of the alpha's pheromones affect him instantly regardless of the fact that it was not a direct contact.He assumes that the mna might be the alpha's secretary since his scent was on him.If not, there's no reason for his scent to be on the man unless they constantly come in contact.

Ethan arrived at his house with troubled mind.The first thing he did was to ask Mr. Evans to dialed his personal doctor's number for an abrupt check up.Ethan Assumed that his pheromone level has been disrupted after being in contact with the alpha.

He waited in his room and minutes later,Mr. Evans with Doctor August entered his room.The doctor immediately made some physical tests and he patiently waited for the results.After the examinations,his doctor had a change of facial expression.

"What's wrong with the young master,doc?"Mr. Evans impatiently asked before Ethan could.

"Have you found your mate,Mr. Chen?"the doctor directly asked leaving him in silent and Mr. Evans in a silent shock.Not wanting to hide anything,he nodded.The doctor sighed and smiled at him.

"Your pheromone level is disrupted,Mr. Chen.Given that your pheromone is low, the contact you have with your mate makes it unstable.Have you went into heat?"the doctor asked more on proving his assumptions.Ethan nodded as he smiled at him.Well,nothing could really be hidden from someone who knows more.

"Well,it can't be helped.You have to rely now to your mate,Mr. Chen.And I can say your mate is a dominant alpha,right?"

Ethan was left with nothing to say.Seeing how betas like Mr. Evans and Aiden were affected by his pheromones last time proves how dominant he is.Betas like them don't usually get affected by alpha pheromones unless they are dominant.

"Yes."Mr. Evans answered for him.The doctor sighed again."You really have to talk to your alpha Mr. Chen or your heat will come from time to time."the doctor told him but he can't do that.The alpha had rejected him already.aHe already lose his face with that and coming to him for reliance is a slap to him.

"Can't you prescribe me with a stronger inhibitor than the last one you gave me?"Ethan asked instead.The doctor looked at him in shock.Then he realized what Ethan is probably up to.

He smiled at him sadly knowing the fact that Ethan got rejected.There's no other reason for him to ask for a higher dose of inhibitors when a dominant alpha like Ethan's mate is more than enough to aid him during his heats.

"I can prescribe you but side effects can be manifested."He said.Ethan nodded and thanked the doctor.It's better than relying on the alpha.He can endure it pretty well.It's nothing unknown to him.

His butler escorted the doctor outside as Ethan decided to take a quick cold shower.He can't help but to think about his situation now.

He can't believe that all of this happened after meeting his mate.He was first rejected and now,he has to rely on him.How ironic his life had become.
