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.
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
"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
*** 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
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
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, 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
