Chapter 501: Threat from the Past.
Ethan nodded slowly, watching Justin’s reaction closely."She did not mean anything by it, of course. Just sharing her side of things. You know how she is,always honest, even when it is not easy for her."Justin’s chest tightened. He hated the idea of Ethan prying into his past with Lilly, of unearthing memories he had buried long ago."What is your point, Ethan? Where are you going with this?"Ethan leaned forward, his expression almost sympathetic. "No point, really. Just that... it is a shame things did not work out between you two. From what she said, you gave it everything you had."Under the desk, Justin’s fists clenched hard. The words coming out from Ethan’s mouth seems like false sincerity and they were getting on his nerves.“Well, let me help you out at this point. I really do not want you to waste your time,” Justin said with an icy tone. “If you believe you can use the past, my past, to try to unsettle me, you are definitely wasting away your breath. I have moved on. Lill
Chapter 502: Shadow of Doubt
The light in Justin's office was turned off as the morning sunlight streamed in through the large glass window. The city below was already full of life. But Justin's interests are unique. Ethan's unannounced visit from the previous day still lingered in his mind like a disagreement. The man's secretive behavior and unstable words made Justin feel uneasy. Justin leaned back in the leather chair. His thoughts drifted to the past where he had worked so hard. The thought that someone like Ethan could delve into his life story and use it against him was enough to make his heart flutter.Mark knocked lightly on the door before reaching in.“Good morning. I got an update on Ethan.”Justin nodded, gesturing for him to take a seat. "Let’s hear it."Mark pulled up the detailed report on his tablet.“Ethan has made waves abroad. After leaving the country, he established a consulting firm specializing in mergers and acquisitions. It is small compared to Drogonov Corporation but has earned a re
Chapter 503: An Explosion from the Past
Soft chuckles and annoyed glances filled the air as guests gathered in the sprawling penthouse room Ethan had rented for the evening. The skyline sparkles through floor-to-ceiling windows. filling the room with impressive old acquaintances and carefully assembled contacts.Ethan moved easily through the crowd. His tailored suit is impeccable. And his smile is disarming.Among the attendees were faces Justin hadn’t seen in years, some from his college days, others from Lilly’s social circle, and, most unsettling of all, a few familiar figures tied to the Tucsons. Ethan’s guest list had been deliberate, pulling from the threads of Justin’s past to weave a narrative that put him at the center of the spotlight, and Justin in the shadows. "Did you hear about the time Lilly and I ran into that art exhibit in Paris?" Ethan’s voice carried over the din as he regaled a small group with one of his many polished anecdotes. "She always had such a sharp eye for beauty. It’s no wonder she inspir
Chapter 504: The Competition Happened Again
Justin’s eyes swept across the room as the crowd's murmurs dwindled and floated around. The tension from his previous encounter with Ethan still hung in the air. It was an almost palpable power that everyone seemed to feel but no one dared admit.Ethan worked the room easily as expected. His charm and charisma attracted people like moths to a fire. Justin noticed that he easily sparked conversation, dropping hints about his achievements, sprinkled with anecdotes that subtly undermine Justin's reputation.Justin remained calm, but inside, his mind churned. Ethan was methodical, his words carefully chosen to plant seeds of doubt about Justin’s success. The occasional sideways glance from partygoers confirmed that some were already questioning the stories they’d heard about Justin’s rise to power. Ethan’s voice broke through Justin’s thoughts. “Are you happy, Justin?” he asked, his voice soft as ever. He stood a few feet away. holding a glass of whiskey, his expression was unreadable
Chapter 505: Revealing Leverage
Justin sits in his office. His hand dipped under his chin as he reviewed the day's schedule. The events of Ethan's party were still lingering in his mind. He was determined not to let the man disrupt his focus. Just as he was about to shift his attention back to his work, his assistant Mark entered. “Sir, Ethan is here,” Mark said, his tone cautious. Justin’s eyes narrowed. “Send him in.”A moment later, Ethan entered the room. exuding his signature air of confidence. He closed the door behind him, without waiting for an invitation and sat across from Justin, unbuttoning his suit jacket with ease.“So, To what do I owe this pleasure?” Justin asked, his voice cold and detached. Ethan leaned back in his chair and studied Justin with a faint smile. “You know me, I'm a guy who likes to tie knots. I think it's time for us to talk more privately. without prying eyes and curious ears.”Justin leaned forward slightly, his gaze sharp.“If you’ve come to play games, Ethan, you’re wasting
Chapter 506: Strategy and Counterplay
The atmosphere in Justin’s private conference room was tense but focused. The team had gathered in response to Ethan’s unsettling visit, and Justin’s determination was palpable.Mark, seated to his right, was busy jotting down notes as Justin outlined the situation.“We don’t just react,” Justin began, his tone sharp and commanding. “We anticipate. Ethan made his first move, but now it’s our turn to shift the balance.” Mark glanced up. “Sir, we’ve already started gathering more intel on his business activities. He’s been operating internationally for years, so his footprint is significant, but not invulnerable.” Justin nodded. “Good. Vulnerabilities are what we’re looking for. Everyone has these things. No matter how untouchable they look.” Across the table, Carla, a financial analyst with an impeccable record, spoke in relief. “I scanned Ethan's public financial records for the first time. He has stakes in multiple ventures, primarily in tech and real estate. Some of his projects
Chapter 507: Lily's Participation
Justin sat in his office staring at his phone. The past few days have been filled with subtle revelations and threats. And Ethan was at the center of it all. Now, there was only one person who could shed light on the situation, that is lily. He hesitated for a moment before tapping her name in his contacts and pressing "call." The call rang several times before her familiar but distant voice answered.“Justin?” he asked, Lily's voice cautious. It was as if she expected this call but was also afraid of it."Yes, it's me," Justin said in a steady voice. “I need to talk to you about Ethan.” There was a long pause, “Ethan? What happened to that?” Justin leaned back in his chair. The tension in his chest increased. “He appeared in my office recently. He made some claims, about you. about your past, I need to understand what happened, Lily.”He heard her sharp intake of breath, “Justin, I don't know what he said to you, but…”“Don't be distracted,” Justin interjected. His voice was no
Chapter 508: Ethan’s True Intentions
The air in Justin’s office was tense, the hum of activity outside the glass walls doing little to distract him from the troubling revelations Mark had just shared. Ethan’s game was no longer just a personal vendetta, it had a calculated corporate edge that threatened to unseat Justin on both fronts.Mark sat across from Justin, flipping through a dossier filled with notes and photos. “He’s been aligning himself with Grayson Corp,” Mark said, tapping a picture of Ethan at a recent event. “They’ve had their eye on your market share for years. Ethan seems to be their latest weapon.”Justin’s jaw tightened. Grayson Corp was a long-time rival, known for their underhanded tactics and willingness to exploit any weakness.“Do we have proof?” Justin asked, his tone calm but laced with steel.“Not concrete yet,” Mark admitted, “but enough to connect the dots. Ethan’s been seen at multiple Grayson functions over the last few months, and his name’s popped up in conversations with some of their ke
Chapter 509: The Game Begins
Justin sat at the head of the conference table, his sharp gaze sweeping across the room. Mark and a select group of trusted advisors filled the seats, each of them waiting for his instructions. A blueprint of their strategy lay before them, maps of influence, connections, and corporate assets. Ethan had drawn first blood, but Justin was determined to dictate how the battle unfolded from here.“The key is precision,” Justin began, his tone measured yet commanding. “Ethan thrives on exploiting vulnerabilities. We won’t give him any. Instead, we’ll exploit him.”Mark nodded, flipping through a detailed report. “We’ve identified a few areas where Ethan is overextended. His ties with Grayson Corp are strong, but not without risk. They’ve recently funneled significant resources into his ventures. If those ventures falter, both Ethan and Grayson will take a hit.”Justin leaned forward. “Which ventures are the weakest?”Mark tapped a page in the dossier. “A tech startup in beta testing. It’s
Chapter 510: Media Explosion
Justin leaned back in his chair, looking at the email on the screen. The headline reads: “Upcoming Releases: Opportunity for Your Feedback” .The contents aren't the best. Major financial publications are ready to publish stories that portray him as a mysterious businessman whose rise to power is questionable. Claims of financial misconduct and moral wrongdoing were all fabricated. Or at least a distorted version of the truth. His jaw dropped as he read the email again. The timing is too convenient to happen by chance. Ethan's self-satisfied face flashed in his mind.“Mark,” Justin called, his voice sharp.Within seconds, Mark appeared in the doorway, his ever-present notebook in hand. “Yes, sir?”Justin gestured to the screen. “Take a look at this.”Mark leaned over, scanning the email quickly. His brow furrowed. “This could be bad,” he said, his tone measured but tinged with concern.“It’s no coincidence,” Justin replied. “Ethan’s behind this. I’m sure of it.”Mark nodded, pulling
