Now he understands. He understands where the waitress had the guts to speak to him in such a manner. He didn't need Wendy or anyone to explain the situation. The moment he had set foot in here, someone had been completely restless. “After what happened at the office, you haven't let go of your shamelessness.” Ethan smirked. " What shamelessness are you speaking about, Miss Wendy?” Ethan asked. " The last time I remembered, you were the shameless one.” Wendy's face turned red. Wendy didn't want to speak about the shameless part anymore so Ethan doesn't bring back what happened at the office, so she said, " How despicable. You really ask a poor waitress who is struggling to make ends meet to kowtow to you, penniless fowl?” Ethan would have cowered back then, but now, he could only see Wendy as a joke. Thinking about it now, he realized how much nonsense he had to swallow at the hands of this woman. Whenever Wendy made a mistake back then, she would push the blame on him, and he w

The thunderous yell of the man who just walked in caused everyone to pause, including the young waitress who was about to get Ethan his order. “Manager Jackson." Mary's eyes widened when she saw the manager walk into the restaurant. Her heart palpitated as she wondered what would become of her if the manager of the restaurant took Ethan's side. But before she could think further, the manager called out in surprise.“Mr. Kent!" He rushed over to the old man and bowed slightly, “It's so good to see you here at our restaurant." “You are?" The old man asked. The manager let out a nervous chuckle and began to speak, “Where are my manners? My name is David. I am the manager of this restaurant. I have heard a lot of good things about you. I'm so surprised to see you at our restaurant.” The old man wasn't in the mood to exchange pleasantries after what Ethan did. But when he heard that David was the manager of the restaurant, his face eased up a bit. " Mr. David, it would have been a pl

The manager was so furious, he yelled, “Don't think you can step foot back in here. I will make sure you'll never get a job in the whole of City D!" Ethan chuckled, “Do you think you have such power?" Wendy hissed, “What do you mean by that? Have you been able to get one yourself? You think after what you did, a job would just drop in your lap?" Ethan smirked, "What I did?” He asked, "You know we can actually discuss it right here what exactly happened that day, Miss Wendy. Was I really the one who did something or you—" “Don't mind this arrogant bastard, Mr. Kent.” Wendy quickly interrupted Ethan so he didn't say anything. "Let's leave already. We will deal with him some other time." She tried to pull Mr. Kent away to avoid Ethan exposing what exactly happened that day, but Mr. Kent wasn't having it. Ethan bruised his ego, and he wanted revenge. “No." He barked in rage. His wrinkled face gathered more wrinkles as he pointed at the other waitress, Mary.“Slap him, and I will pay

Mirabel's eyes widened. She was no novice. She knew Fantasy. Who doesn't in the whole of City D? Everyone knows it, rich and poor, but not everyone is allowed to get close to somewhere like that. It was a prestigious agency where only wealthy men step in to buy luxurious homes. Never in a hundred years did Mirabel ever think she could set foot inside until today. Yet, she feared for Ethan and herself. As famous as Gracious Life Restaurant is, it's nothing compared to Fantasy Real Estate Agency. If Ethan misbehaves there, they could both end up in jail. She doubts Ethan had money to buy a luxury house. She didn't want to judge by his clothes or washed wristwatch or his pam on his feet, but she couldn't help it. Not to talk of how he just ate like he was just released from jail. “Are you sure we should be here?" She asked Ethan as they walked towards the receptionist. The place was way past their league. The interior, the quiet excellence, and the cool tone that played in the bac

Ethan and Mirabel stood in front of a large mansion with a massive silver gate. Mirabel could not quench the excitement in her heart as she stood in front of the big mansion. It wasn't hers, but realizing that indeed she made the right choice by following Ethan brought some excitement into her veins. Ethan pulled out the keys and opened the gate. They stepped in. It was exactly as it was in the magazine. Ethan wished Jenna was here with him as he checked the house out, but then he heard a feminine voice from beside him,“Wow, big brother, this is massive!" Mirabel's round, big eyes glowed like those of a little child. Ethan looked at her and smiled. At least he wasn't here alone. He walked towards the building and into the house. Ethan didn't bother to check everything as it was in the description. He allowed Mirabel to do it while he answered a call. It was Manager Henry," Chairman, greetings, sir.”" Good morning, Henry. Is everything alright?” All this while, Ethan was at th
