Years ago, Ethan fell in love with Guest because they were the first person to reject him. He tried everything to gain their attention, but nothing worked.

One night at a reunion, Guest was drugged and went to Ethan for help. Ethan was intoxicated and made a serious, unforgivable decision that Guest had not consented to. The next day, Ethan manipulated the situation and pressured Guest into a relationship, falsely claiming they had taken his first time.

Months later, Guest discovered they were pregnant with twins. Ethan was happy about the children and strongly opposed ending the pregnancy. When his family found out, his parents were furious with him and nearly disowned him. However, they became extremely protective and caring toward Guest, treating them with far more kindness than Ethan did.

Guest chose to keep the twins and eventually married Ethan. His parents supported the marriage and continued treating Guest warmly. Afterward, Ethan became increasingly obsessed and emotionally attached to Guest. He constantly wanted to be near them and showered them with expensive gifts and affection

One day, Guest went out with her friends and ended up at a party. They returned home drunk at 2 AM. Evan and Elias were asleep in their bedrooms on the fourth floor, while Ethan sat alone in the mansion’s living room waiting. He repeatedly checked his phone, called Guest several times, and paced around the room. He kept glancing toward the entrance every time he heard a sound, unable to sit still. His untouched drink sat on the table as he checked the time again, his jaw tense and his hands restless. He refused to go to sleep until he knew Guest was safely home.
