her personal assistant
Wesley looked at Natalie coldly."Are you questioning my decision?"Facing Wesley's penetrating gaze, Natalie's heart was filled with hatred and humiliation. Although she wanted to retort, she managed to suppress her anger with logic and reason.Before Wesley descended to the Harrison Group, who in the company would dare to use this tone to scold her?"Chairman Wesley, I think your decision is far too hasty. How could you place someone in the Chief Design Officer's position just like that?" Sterling said with dissatisfaction. "Moreover, Sophia was just a small employee in the marketing department and clearly does not have any experience in this field.""The jewelry design team deals with the development of our company's products and is thus a crucial part of the company's industrial chain," Sterling said. "Sophia is clearly not qualified to be the Chief Design Officer, be it her resume or experience. I am afraid the employees of the company will not be convinced by such a decision."W

"Are you here for me?" Ethan frowned."Bingo."The burly man revealed a cold, menacing smile as he suddenly charged up his fist and threw a punch at Ethan's face.Reacting in that split second, Ethan managed to dodge the attack by a hair's breadth.Witnessing the swiftness and ferocity of the two attackers, they were clearly hired fighters who had undergone some sort of professional training."Your reaction is pretty quick," the burly man exclaimed in slight shock after missing his punch."In that case, I'll just have to cripple your legs!"As the two burly men unveiled expressions as fierce as tigers, they dashed towards Ethan simultaneously from both sides and sent fearsome kicks at his kneecaps.Leaning to the side, Ethan retaliated by spinning his body and whipping his legs towards the two of them. At that instant, the sound of wind lashed through the air as his legs struck down at the two burly men.*Thump! Thump!*In the blink of an eye, the two burly men flew several meters awa

The instant the gunfire sounded, Ethan suddenly revealed a menacing smile on his expressionless face.He flashed away and disappeared from his initial position, leaving only a mere afterimage behind.As a result, the shot missed its target.Spencer was shocked beyond belief.In the blink of an eye, Ethan had suddenly appeared at Spencer's side like a ghost."Agh!"At that moment, Ethan grabbed Spencer by his arm and twisted it without any mercy. As the sound of bones cracking reverberated through the room, Spencer shrieked in agonizing pain.The pistol in his hand had also fallen to the ground.*Crash!*With a violent kick, Ethan sent Spencer flying a few meters away before crashing heavily into the wall. In the sorry state that he found himself in, Spencer's body shook uncontrollably as blood dripped down from his head.Spencer's crimson-painted face was quickly flushed bleach pale in the presence of Ethan. He never expected Ethan to be fast enough to dodge a bullet. Furthermore, he
bodyguards for his wife
After dealing with the situation at Starlight, Ethan finally returned home.Upon his arrival back home, he constantly pondered about how he should handle the situation regarding Sophia's family. That night, he made a call to Wesley and gave him some instructions on what to do.The next day.While Sophia went straight to work at the company, Ethan, on the other hand, arrived at a small coffee shop and ordered himself a latte.After waiting for around five minutes...A brand new black BMW 530 came to a stop in front of the coffee shop.At that moment, a young man full of vigor stepped out of the car with a sincere look. Possessing a rather handsome appearance, he then walked into the coffee shop with a strict pace, looking like someone who had just experienced several years of service in the army."Director Ford, it is a pleasure to meet you. My name is Marcus. I have brought over the car you requested and will be receiving your assessment directly," Marcus stated as he straightened his
reunion
In the afternoon, Sophia was still fast at work in her office, seriously processing the documents for the King of the World Project.After receiving a text message, Ethan notified Sophia that he would be taking his leave before going down the elevator.When he arrived at the entrance of Prestige Tower, a black Bentley was already waiting for him on the other side of the road....Half an hour later.Clearwater Hotel, 26th floor.Under the lead of an old butler, Ethan walked into the grandiose office.In the midst of the office, Richard sat alone on a rather large chair with an indifferent expression, which befitted the dignified appearance of a man of his superior status.Ethan pulled open a chair and sat down before speaking lightly, "Aren't you very confident that I would come and beg you? Why did you take the initiative to look for me? Are you getting impatient?"Richard replied with a calm expression, "It looks like you really won't be going back to the Hartley Family no matter wh
Louis obsession
"Wow! You still consider this a small gift? I passed by a jewelry store a few days ago and saw a much smaller jade necklace that was tens of thousands of dollars. Compared to that one, this jade necklace looks much better in quality," one of the girls' eyes sparkled brightly as she looked at the jade necklace."How amazing, Louis! Shouldn't this necklace of yours be worth at least a hundred thousand dollars?" a man praised."Tsk tsk, Louis, are you proposing to Sophia?" another beautiful girl said with a playful expression.Sophia wore a rather ugly expression when faced with Louis's fawning."Sophia, this is just a small token of my appreciation. There is no other meaning to it," Louis maintained an elegant demeanor as he said with a smile."Sophia, since Prince Charming Louis has already said so, you should accept his gift.""Yeah, I'm so envious of you. Prince Charming Louis, why don't you give me a necklace instead?""Yeah, I remember now. Didn't Louis chase after Sophia persisten

There was a brief silence in the private room.The thin boy who had been beaten into a pulp was one of the male classmates who had come to the party reunion together with the others.He had even assisted Louis in mocking Ethan.Louis coughed dryly and said, "Let him go.""Did you think I would let him go just because you said so? Who do you think you are?" the fierce-looking tattooed man questioned Louis while shooting daggers at him."What am I? I am your father!" Louis exclaimed as he rushed forward and slapped the man in his face."My name is Louis, the owner of the Beacon Construction Company nearby. Since the Golden Crown KTV was renovated by my company, I have become acquainted with its boss. You little bastard, why are you still standing before me?" Louis said arrogantly."Louis? Beacon Construction Company?" The man was just about to fight back when he hesitated for a moment. Then, he suppressed his anger and walked out of the room before leaving behind a warning, "Just you wa
master Ethan
"What? Ethan actually dared to attack Blade? Is he crazy?""It's all over. All of us are going to be killed by that useless bastard. Looking at Blade's notorious reputation, none of us are going to get out of this situation unscathed."The people in the private room all wore expressions of disbelief on their faces.At the same time, they were also struck by fear as they believed that Blade would end up venting his rage on them.Ethan looked at Blade indifferently and asked, "Are you Spencer's subordinate?""That's right! I am one of Third Master Spencer's men from the Southern City. Anyone who lives in Clearwater City should have heard of Third Master Spencer's name at least once, right?" Blade said with a menacing stare before threatening them. "You better kneel down and apologize straight to my face. Who knows? I might just be willing to let you go. Otherwise, I'm also willing to wait for someone else to collect your lifeless corpse."*Slap!*At that moment, Ethan suddenly threw yet
the golden crown
"Third Master! This is the man I was telling you about! How dare he cause trouble in your territory?! He even dared to slap me after I told him your name! He has no respect for you at all!" Blade shouted, afraid that Spencer would not notice him. Despite his loud pleas, Spencer paid no attention to Blade whatsoever. Instead, he stared at Ethan's back with utmost hesitation, a bad feeling rising in his heart. Ethan slowly turned around and looked at Spencer indifferently without uttering a single word. "Master Ethan!" Spencer — upon meeting Ethan's gaze — immediately lowered his head and respectfully greeted him. "What?" "Have my ears gone deaf? What did Third Master Spencer just say?" Blade and his men exclaimed in shock. "Master Ethan, I never expected you to be here at the Golden Crown. Did something happen?" Spencer wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked respectfully. Ethan replied indifferently, "You may ask your subordinate." "Blade, did you somehow offend Master Eth

"What? Alright, don't panic. I'm on my way over there now," Ethan stated with a serious expression.During that moment, Ethan noticed how noisy it was on the other end of the call. It seemed that the company had already fallen into chaos. Sophia had also hung up the call.Ethan frowned slightly as he connected the dots of the dire situation. Since tomorrow was the day of the jewelry exhibition, the King of the World being stolen had clearly been planned out by someone in order to sabotage Sophia.Taking the size of the Harrison Corporation into account, this did not seem to be a simple case of theft either since Prestige Tower had installed countless surveillance cameras in every room and corridor."Sir, you aren't going to purchase this suite, right? If you have any other questions, we'll get in touch with you again next time," the male employee said impatiently — itching to end all talks with this seemingly poor customer.To begin with, he never intended to spend more time with such
