Ethan looked at his suit and back up at her. “Is something wrong with the one I have on?” He asked.“No, Ethan. But I just want you to match with me, don't you think we will look better in a matching fit?” She pouted.Ethan smiled. “Okay, just for your sake.”“Perfect, there is a changing room back there, change quickly.” She urged.He took the suit from her and went to change into it. After changing, Ethan walked out and looked at her like asking what she thought.Kara's face glowed with a smile. “You are the hottest man alive,” she said and hugged him, then she kissed him deeply.He grabbed her ass and kissed her back, she gasped. “Ethan!” Her eyes widened.“What? You started it.” He chuckled.She laughed and claimed his lips again in a passionate kiss that lasted for over a minute.“So what now?” Ethan asked.“Now? Let's just stay here for a while, then we can go out together. I ve

At this point, a few curious alumni had stepped out, followed by a trickle of socialites and security personnel, all drawn by the screams of betrayal. Damian anchored his arm firmly around Sophie’s waist. She leaned into him, smoothing the silk of her dress with a calm elegance."Clara, since you have already seen us, there is no need to hide it anymore." Damian said casually.Clara stood trembling, her face a mask of pale horror as more people circled them. "Damian, what... what are you saying?" She stuttered."Isn't it clear to you yet," Damian replied with a sneer, straightening up and looking her directly in the eyes. "We’re in love, Clara. Real love. Not the pathetic, manufactured devotion I’ve had to perform for you every night for the last half-decade. Sophie and I have been together since high school. We were a couple before you even knew my name."The hallway erupted in a wave of gasps. Clara staggered back, her hand flying to h

"Liar!" Damian’s voice cracked in desperation. "You’re a fraud, Ethan! You’re just making up stories to scare us! That company was transferred to me! It was stamped! It’s official! You’re just a homeless loser with a vivid imagination!"He turned to the crowd, his hands shaking. "Does anyone actually believe this? He’s trying to steal my property in front of all of you!""Actually," a voice spoke up from the back of the crowd. A silver-haired man in a charcoal suit stepped forward. He was Nicholas Sparks, a senior partner at one of the city's most prestigious law firms and a distinguished alumnus. He adjusted his glasses as he looked at the screen of Ethan’s phone. "I was a clerk at the registry when Valetech was founded. I remember the chatter about a Lineage Trust being filed. It was a rare, highly specialized move."Nicholas leaned in, his eyes scanning the digital seal. He turned to the crowd, his expression grave. "The document is legitimate. It’s a S

Back at Kara's Villa, Kara Lewis, Ethan Vale and Mario Kart who had been non-existent at the party gathered to celebrate Ethan's win. "To the return of the King," Mario said, raising her glass with a grin. Ethan chuckled. "It's only a small victory, but I guess a win is a win, Mario. I don't really need the recovered assets but I couldn't let them keep what they stole from me. Tonight was more about revenge, giving them a taste of their own medicine." "Small victory?" Kara laughed, her eyes shimmering with pride. "Ethan, you just decapitated the most arrogant social climbers in York Town. In my book, that's a huge victory. They both deserved what they got tonight." Before she could continue, her phone began to vibrate on the counter. She glanced at the screen, and the light in her eyes dimmed instantly. "It’s my mother," she sighed. "Give me a moment." Kara rushed upstairs before answering the call, she alrea

Ethan rubbed his cheek in shock and confusion. "What was that for?" Ethan asked in a high pitched voice. "For thinking you can impress me by lying to me!" Kara shouted back. "For thinking I’m so stupid that I would believe that. Nathan Cross? The King of War? Do you realize how pathetic that sounds? Are you so desperate to stay with me that you’re claiming to be a global myth." "What? You think I'm lying? This is exactly why I kept it a secret all this time, because I knew you wouldn't believe me.” "Stop it!" she interrupted, pointing a finger at his face. "I am so disappointed in you. I thought you were a man of substance, but now I see you’re just a liar. Did you learn nothing about me all these time? Did you think I was some gold-digger who would hear a powerful name and fall back into your arms? I find it offensive that you’d even try to woo me with such a blatant lie." Ethan stared at her for a long mome
