Isabella, who works as the head of the HR Department, made it easy for Ethan to find her workspace. On the 35th floor, Ethan had to descend several floors from the finance department where he worked.The lift usage intensity drastically increased due to lunchtime, with staff from different departments using the company's four lifts. However, many of them chose to bring packed lunches to save on expenses and time.Ethan didn't take long to get his share of the lift. He left after pressing the 35th-floor button, unlike other staff who pressed the fifth-floor button, where the first cafeteria was located."Is he the one?""No doubt, he's the one.""I didn't expect him to be so bold with Mr. Ravensville."
***DOR!Shots were fired by the criminals. Ethan was bowing his head in the passenger seat of the black sedan.The car was currently being driven by Marcus Flynn, with Nina Flynn beside him. They were trying their best to escape the criminals' pursuit."Who are they, Dad?" asked Ethan, full of fear."The Hammingtons," Marcus replied."Never mind that, Ethan. Go cover your head!" ordered Nina, Ethan's mother, speaking to him loudly."A-Alright," Ethan said, obeying his mother's words.Not only were bullets fired by them, but their car also began to crash into the black sedan car driven by t
Ethan and the men began to leave the airport area, traveling in a group of luxury black sedans that drew the attention of many people in Lancaster, especially on the city's main street."Your arrival in this city must bring back old memories, Sir," the car's driver escorting Ethan replied."Old memories, huh? More like bad memories you don't want to relive," Ethan explained, sitting back with his legs crossed, watching the buildings as his car passed."I'm sorry to make you remember the incident again, Sir," said the driver, apologizing."It's okay. After all, the incident of the destruction of the Flynn Family is no longer a secret among the prominent families in Lancaster," Ethan replied.Ethan smiled as he turned his head, assuring the driver that his words had not offended Ethan.The driver was relieved, refocusing on the road ahead. Just as Ethan's group of cars came to a stop at a traffic light, the driver spoke up again."I just wanted to thank you, Mr. Ethan," the driver revea
"Wh-What?" asked Laura.The woman was shocked with broad, rounded eyes. Her cries stopped, turning into disbelief at what Ethan said.Seeing the expression Laura showed made Isabella curious. She walked back to Laura to see what was going on."What's happening?" asked Isabella, curious."Mr. Tony Blair. He withdrew all his investments here," revealed Laura."What? Has he gone mad?!" shouted Isabella, unable to hide her shock.The two women were still staring at Laura's phone screen, showing the live events happening in the meeting hall of Raven's company. In that scene, Ethan is still standing forward, facing the members of the Ravensville family."I will talk to him directly!" announced Liam, not believing Ethan's words and preferring to call Tony directly on his phone.Ethan acted quickly. He immediately called Tony, his adjutant officer working at the Prestige Tower outside the Esseth Country. Tony answered Ethan's phone call faster than Liam's call."Hello, Mr. Tony. It's me, Etha
Ethan exited the elevator along with Laura. Although Laura wanted Ethan's true identity, he was reluctant. Ethan would remain as a subordinate of Tony Blair.The elevator doors opened, the man walked out with Laura in tow. Realizing Laura had returned to the first floor of the Raven Company, Isabella hurried to approach her friend.Isabella's steps stopped right before Ethan, looking at Laura's husband's face, which was full of seriousness. "How did you dare to do that?""Do what?" Ethan asked."Withdrawing Tony Blair's investment and canceling all his cooperation with Raven," Isabella explained."I didn't do that because I wanted to. It was purely Mr. Tony Blair's wish," Ethan replied firmly without compromise.Isabella still looked suspiciously ahead, especially after Ethan's showy arrival full of escorts. If Tony had sent Ethan here to attend a shareholder meeting, why would Ethan have needed so many escorts?Even so, Isabella still couldn't continue to suspect him. Tony Blair's id
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
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
"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
