Ethan continued to wait in the office of the deputy head of the investment and finance department, Ophelia. Miss Ophelia didn't seem to mind. In fact, Ophelia felt like she had someone to talk to.Employees of the department came to Ophelia's office one after another. Some came to submit documents related to financial records, and some came just to see Ethan, Tony Blair's trusted person, who was also Laura Ravensville's husband.Most of the department's staff were women, young and under 30 years old, and most were single. Ophelia noticed the attitude of her staff, especially since a handsome man was waiting for Miss Lussie in her office."Can you tell me more about yourself?" asked Ophelia. Ethan was silent as he scrolled through the phone screen, ignoring Ophelia's question."I only know that Miss Laura is married, but I've never known what Laura's husband looks like," Ophelia replied, signing a few files that were deliberately delivered by the staff."You don't need to know because
Isabella stepped out of the front door of Raven's office to quickly arrive upstairs, where Thomas Ravensville would call for an urgent meeting. The first son of Liam and Grace Ravensville would be the one to take control of the company temporarily until Liam's condition fully recovered.It took several days of hospitalization for Liam to recover, which was precious time but far more precious than the situation at Raven itself.Ethan walked up to the company's reception desk, about to make an appointment with the investment and finance department. The receptionist managed to get an appointment and said that Ethan could meet with the deputy head of the investment and finance department at her place.The employee said the floor where the employees and heads of the investment and finance department worked was on the 75t
*** The next day. City Tower Apartment. "So far, she hasn't realized anything about me," Ethan revealed. He sat at the dining table chair in the early morning, opening his tablet and broadcasting a video conference with Tony. Tony was still in his room at Prestige Tower, preparing for his day —Working as Ethan's aide at Prestige. "Wow, that's really unexpected. Is she dumb? Haha!" joked Tony, laughing softly as his voice could be heard through the wireless earphones Ethan was wearing, "No offense." "Haha. I think ignorant and dumb are two similar things," expressed Ethan, not taking offense since he had been friends with Tony for quite a while. "Then, have you found any information about the Orion group?" asked Ethan. The man went back to talking about his work. Still eating his breakfast menu, Tony immediately paused, his mouth chewing the bread. He turned his gaze to the side right when Ethan asked that question. "My friend working as an IT staff said he was trying to bre
"My job?" asked Ethan, sharpening his eyes slightly when Isabella said so.Isabella answered with a nod. What Isabella asked was not an absurd question but rather a deep question that was the reason for all her suspicions about Ethan's true identity.Starting from screwing up shareholder meetings, arguing with Leon Hammington to buying VVIP apartments that are notoriously expensive and only the wealthiest people can do it.If all of these incidents are traced properly, then there is one thing in common between the three incidents: Ethan's high confidence.He messed up at the shareholders' meeting as if he wasn't afraid of the consequences of bullying the Ravensville family members. Arguing with Leon Hammington as if he didn't think Leon was someone who could harm him. Bo
Ethan and Laura left, heading to the luxury apartment in the city center, where Tony had bought a unit on Ethan's orders. Laura was still pensive, her head kept to the side, looking at the passing buildings through the glass window of the sedan car."I have not even had a chance to tell them my wish to leave," Laura replied."How did you and Leon meet, especially Ravensville with Hammington?" asked Ethan, curious.Laura turned her head to the side when she heard such a question. Sitting near Laura, Ethan continued to stare at her until their eyes locked on each other.The woman before Ethan seemed to sigh and then exhale slowly. She no longer looked at Ethan's face but raised her head as she leaned it against the head cushion on the car seat."I have never met him, even in person and by coincidence. Our first meeting was when Leon and the rest of the Hammington family came to visit," Laura said.Ethan narrowed his eyes, both curious and astonished about how Leon could fall in love wit
Ethan's hands were clasped at his waist as he realized what Grace was saying was actually something he wanted, for Laura's happiness. However, Ethan thought giving up Laura was the same as giving up on this.The man looked back, seeing carefully that Laura was completely frightened by the request Grace had made to Ethan. Ethan nodded. He wouldn't just hand Laura over to them."Unfortunately, I'm her legal husband and still love her. There's no definite reason why I should divorce her," Ethan replied."But if you don't divorce her, Ravensville will suffer the consequences," Graces explained.Ethan laughed softly, bringing his face forward to whisper something to Grace in a voice filled with a real threatening tone, "I don't care. You're screwed along with all your dreams.
"Can we go to the hospital first to see my dad?" Laura asked.The question surprised Ethan, as the two were currently driving away from the place to reach the apartment in the city center.The man beside Laura turned his head to the side, seeing the expression on Laura's face so pensive in grief.Ethan couldn't possibly leave his wife's face like that when he got home, but going to the hospital where Liam was being treated would create another conflict."You must know that if we go there, other problems will arise," Ethan replied, wiping the wound on his hand with a cotton swab and antiseptic."I know that, but he is my father after all. I don't want to leave without telling him," Laura said."Oh my. They tortured you for years, but you still showed him your kindness?" asked Ethan, unable to comprehend Laura's kindness."I never hated him even though he always looked down on me," said Laura.The things that Laura was showing right now moved Ethan deeper, touching the deepest part of E
The door to the Ravensville residence opened roughly; a man walked in and found Clara, Ethan, and Laura in the living room.The man with an athletic body and bald head stepped toward Ethan with his heart full of anger."You bastard, Ethan!" the man shouted.Ethan pulled Laura's hand and led her backward away from the man's attack. The man managed to dodge a punch from the man who had just arrived."How dare you come here nonchalantly after destroying Raven Company?!" he snapped."Hold on, George. I don't want to hurt you," Ethan pleaded, trying to calm George down.George Hughes was a businessman, the CEO of Denvy Company, and none other than Raven's close partner. He also lived here as the husband of Hilda Ravensville, Laura's older sister.The reason for George's anger had a strong base, especially about the termination of the cooperation between Tony Blair and the Raven Company.If the cooperation was canceled, not only Raven would suffer, but Denvy would as well since he participa
Lucas easily drove the luxury sedan to the Ravensville residence. The location of the house was not difficult. It was in an elite residential complex with the most striking, spacious, and luxurious houses."I don't know much about you so far, Ethan. You're like a new person to me," Laura expressed, still watching her husband, who had somehow turned more handsome than before —According to what Laura remembered."I'm sorry, Laura. It's not that I haven't been keeping up with you, but my work has made it difficult for me to find spare time. Mr. Tony is always giving me work to do," Ethan replied.He wanted to get rid of the suspicion in Laura's head about him as much as possible. If Laura knew he was one of the best generals in the world, she might feel inferior to his status.Ethan Flynn, one of the best generals in the world, with a distinctive nickname of God of War for his ability to understand the battlefield and win it. Many wars in the world have ended with victory on Ethan's side
