Like rain, the white image descended through thundering and lightening and pounced on Ethan, leaving him stumbling and rolling on the icy ground.He drew his fingers, the bones around it cracking as he folded a powerful fist and clenched his jaw; with a striking dive at the image, he got a counter bang which left him slamming on the ice.“Fuck!”He cursed and molded a firmer fist again , this time ready to send his powerful kick but the figure made a resultant move and dazed him a punch on the jaw. Swiftly, he was able to swerve out of target but the second one shifted his face.Slamming on the ground, the white figure swerved in the energy of light and threatened him with a finishing punch but paused at face reach.“Rise,” the white figure offered his hand to him and assisted to aide him to his feet. “You are not doing badly at all. Glad you have been able to master the punches but you need to train harder.Ethan tossed his head. “Thank a whole lot. How can I appreciate you all this

“By now you should have gotten privy about his martial art,” Astra addressed Linda, “Go ahead. I am all ears. What have you discovered about him so that we can strike. Who trains him and where does he train?”“Not as easy as you think,” she intoned, losing interest in the wine the cupbearer had just offered her, “Even his fucking father doesn’t know anything about him, except the fact that that he controls unlimited wealth. I have dared to spy on his path and destination but nothing striking pops out…”Astra snorted heavily. “Ethan took down Fifteen Assassins, hmmm. nothing happens without a reason. He is being trained by someone , somewhere. Until we unearth this secret, we can’t take him down. I thought since you are his baby mama you could have a first-hand privy. I believe in you…”She tossed her head in loss. “You may have to try other means of taking him down. The asshole doesn’t even touch me let alone get intimate with me, so how then can I know his ways. If you have plan B

“I don’t think I can do what you are requesting for,” the chef placed the content on the table accompanied with the bag of money, “My conscience pricks me, and my boss has done a lot for me and my family. He paid my mother’s medical bills and my father’s rent. What more can I say…”All the while Linda’s face had lost light, her mouth gaping at her offender. “What the fuck are you talking about? How can a full fleshed young man your age choose poverty over loyalty? Are you daft?”The chef snapped. “With all due respect ma whatever fight you have with Ethan will boomerang. He is too strong to be engaged in any battle. I would suggest you refrain…”“Will you keep shut your hole and listen!” She took out more bundles and placed on the table. “This is more money and by the time my son inherits the EA Group, you will earn a lot. I will ensure you become more comfortable and powerful.” She neared him. “I will change your life…”The chef pulled back. “Stop this ma’am. Don’t convince me. I have

“No, no , it can’t be true,” Astra doubted as he rubbed his eyes and took a seat, “You know we have propaganda and false news, perhaps his extended family has made it look that way, just to avert the attention of the public. You know how this rich folks behaves…”“What fucking propaganda are you talking about?” Gilbert barked, and picked up the remote to switch to another channel.And even that was the worst. The very next channel were showing Ethan and his father , addressing the media about their launch of his new chemical worth over 500 billion dollars which will cover the unease faced in the chemical industry, also he is buying 97 % shares of the chemical industry.”“Did you hear that?” Gilbert fumed, “Someone that is supposed to be dead is out there making more investment and you sit here to nag about propaganda, huh did you see that?The cartel stopped smoking and drinking, a few of them sat down while the rest got closer to the TV to reconfirm the news.“Ethan is alive, bubblin

Gilbert still frowning at his beholder was lost with words. “Are you here to mock me or you are here for business? The last I checked you denied me buying shares in your groups so why are you here now?”Ethan muffled a slight chortle.” A group that is going down the drain doesn’t buy shares but loans. In that case since you are not selling, are you interested in taking a loan from my bank? 20 % interest and when you default in any way, your collateral becomes mine.”Gilbert sensing the offer smiled. “So what can I use as collateral? I have got gold, and rolls Royce and Bugatti. Pure luxury…”“Your group will become my collateral., I can offer you a loan of 1 billion or 2.” Ethan raised his hand and his secretary stepped forward with some documents. “You have six months to do business and repay it, if you fail, your group becomes mine.”George snorted; wondering how Ethan knew his intentions; just a few day ago, he had thought about taking a loan but EA Bank never came to mind. He need
