“Boss,” he shuttered, his mouth gaping like whale’s, “You can’t do this to me now.” Like a pack of card, Montana crippled to his knees, “This job is my life. It is the reason I breathe. Please, I beg of you. Forgive me. I am only a victim of …”“A victim of yourself,” Ethan chirped, legs crossed as he sipped his wine. “It’s very risky, very precarious to keep you in my circle, Montana. If you could do this to George, come on, even my soul is not safe… you are done with my group. Go and find a living elsewhere…”Vanity flashed in his sight as he blinked to get off the reality . “Where do I go from here. I … I have responsibilities now. You… you.” He stuttered heavily, his throat choked . “You can see I have kids to take care of… things won’t be easy without a job…“And who told you Ethan Group is the only empire in New York, huh?” Ethan cracked, “We got thousands of them, innumerable empires, ready to hire a traitor, a betrayer, an embodiment of ruin… it is over Montana, goodbye…”

“What… what is happening?” his lips trembled, body quaked with the shocker right before him. “You, the CEO? This is Grant Group for chrissake . What is happening here. Why am I here?”“While you ask those questions, please answer them,” Ethan snapped, “I thought I could give you a second chance to amend your ways by offering you the job so you could take care of those kids but here you are , misbehaving like a clown. Huh. are you still shocked that I own Grant GROUP…”Furiously Montana dashed out to the senior manager. “What the fuck is happening here? I thought you said I should meet the CEO. Who is the Ceo. I really want to see him. Where is he?” he queried, his vocal echoing off the wall.“Are you naught?” the manager fumed at him. “You just met the CEO. Ethan Arthur. He is our boss. He bought Grant Group six months ago. Don’t you know he owns Grant Group, huh., are you daft that you don’t know your boss…”Eyes blinking, he felt dizzy and blurred at the same time. “ But you thought

“Did I hear you mention forget Ethan, huh?” George began to surge closer, his fury boiling in is veins, “I could hit you for saying trash. Ethan made me who I am today and obviously he had good plans for you too but your love for pussy couldn’t let you think straight…”Those words burned Montana but he let a forceful smile instead. “Let it go, George. Don’t let that bitch come between us. She is only but a bitch and besides she came for me and not the other way round..”George chuckled. “just listen to yourself, huh. you nurtured craving for her, countless camera footages showed you professing love and obsession, you even advised her to divorce me, huh, and now you standing before me in the garment of a saint…”He shrugged. “I am not a saint, yeah, but I have better plans for us. I know I may have fallen short of Ethan’s loves . I am no longer loyal to Ethan but I have so much respect for you. You are my dude for life, Come on let’s role and move on… and let me tell you staying with

“We just want to thank you so much, Montana, for saving the life of my daughter,” that was the voice of Ferguson, all smiles, patting the shoulders of Tessy who stood adorned in the best French gown, and hat, while a few maids stroked her toes, with warm water. “You did magnificently well, not every man could do what you did…”Chin lit with distant smile, Montana bowed, still stealing a glance at Tessy, in whose hands was the photo of Ethan,“Anything for you and most especially for the heiress, I deem it an honor to save her life,” he intoned, almost losing his sight at the photo in her hand. It struck his sanity that despite all she had been through she still nurtured feelings for Ethan…Ferguson tossed his head and gestured at his aide who stepped out with a document which he pointed to him. “In appreciation, the management of Ferguson Group has this to appreciate you with this token,…”Montana widened his gaze, opened the envelope only for his gaze to be churned with a check for o

The community town hall. 9’o clock.The frantic crowd of more than a handful of moneybags trooped in to witness the biggest auction of the year.Montana, Tessy, and Fergusson had ensured to get in on time and they were in the front pew to catch the glimpse of every show. All the while they had been scanning their gaze around to catch the sight of Ethan.But only Rex, and George could be found pacing up and down ensuring the auction was going smoothly as planned.“The failure is not yet here,” Montana chirped and widened his gaze as his eyes scooped around, trying to see the face that resembled Ethan,. “I don’t expect to see him. It is so shameful to fall from such high status to nothing…”Tessy let a cracking laugh that quickly caught the attention of everyone. “You are such a hilarious piece of soul, Montana. Well, I got him some VIP of handkerchief.,” she took them out. “And the first gift I will hand to him will be these stuff to wipe his tears. I guess he must have wailed all nigh
