"How do you know him?" Ethan asked, furrowing his brows.Although Elia has been in what he'd call a castle for years now, she seems to know more than what he knows."Has he told you his name yet?" She asked,"He didn't directly tell me his name," Ethan responded, causing Elia to scoff."It's almost like he doesn't have a name. He has gone by multiple surnames over the years and had even gone by Martinez at some point," she informed, causing Ethan to walk towards the couch to sit, knowing this was a conversation he'd want to have."What do you know about him?" Ethan asked, trying to get to know what Elia already knows."Well, I know very little about him, and I'm surprised that you don't know anything about him yet. Dad wrote about him in his journal, and let me guess, you've been too busy to read it." She asked, and Ethan shook his head in response."No, I've not been too busy to read it." "I have a few things to get in line, but I'm still going through it at night, and I'm yet to ge

Rosanna walked into the room; she wasn't dressed in formal attire; rather, she was dressed in a fine pink knee-length dress."I was told my grandmother was here earlier," she said, causing Ethan to nod."She came to inform me that you have decided to keep the baby." Ethan said as he signed off on the document he had been going through for some minutes now,"Yes. Unfortunately, the family doctor informed her that I was pregnant, and she forbade me from aborting the child.""Unfortunately?" Ethan asked, unsure that it was bad news for Rosanna. "Yes, I wanted to keep it to myself until I know what I want to do." She said, causing Ethan to sigh, abandoning everything he was going to gaze at her."Well, now you know, and I've already contacted a house agent. There's this property that has been on my mind lately; I'll get it, and later today, you could go with Lilian to go and check up on the place." Ethan paused for emphasis."I'm sorry, Lilian, but you might have to stop going to the off

At Secret Company, while Ethan was going through some files that needed signing, he was interrupted by a knock on his door."I thought I asked you to keep my schedule clear for 2 hours?" Ethan muttered with his gaze on a file sitting on his desk. He felt completely displeased that he had just been disturbed."I'm sorry, sir. But someone is here to see you," Lilian apologized."This better be good." Ethan said, raising his gaze to her face,"A man is here to see you." She paused, not knowing if she should go on."I know a lot of men, Lilian; give me a name!" Ethan said sternly,"Xavier Alexander." She informed him, causing Ethan to chuckle softly."Send him in," he said, getting to his feet as he took some steps to the other side of his office.Xavier walked in only to find Ethan standing next to a wine cabinet."What do you want to drink, Xavier?" Ethan asked, raising one of his brows, "Serve me your best wine, Ethan," Xavier responded, taking a few steps to his desk.Ethan smiled, t

"The warehouse that was burnt... I want you to go over there and supervise the work." He paused, walking towards where Cersei sat and sitting on the desk, facing her."This business that I have with Payne, I would be using that warehouse for it. "Considering that it was burnt down, I suspect that when it's done, I could store a few illegal items there," Ethan said, causing Cersei to sit upright, asking,"What kind of illegal items?"Ethan smirked, taking a moment to respond before muttering, "Powder!""The actual hell, Ethan? That would draw the police's attention to you." Cersei muttered, totally against the thought of it."Are you saying this because you're scared or purely because you really don't want me to do business with that man?" Ethan asked, causing Cersei to swallow hard, narrowing her eyes before admitting to it."Well, you're right. He's dangerous, and who knows. This could be a trap," she said."I know. It's quite obvious, but don't worry, I've got a plan." Ethan informe

"What license?" Payne asked, wondering how Ethan knew he could issue a license."I want to start an importation of ammunition." He informed them, causing Payne to furrow his brows, looking like he was in total disapproval of it."And I don't just want to be importing them, but I know that you have connections with the British government. I want my ammunition to be delivered to them, and I know you could get me that connection." Ethan added, causing Payne to push his chair back, getting to his feet before saying,"The British government already has people that deliver ammunition to them. They don't need another merchant, and besides, don't you only deal in drinks?" And refined liquids?" Payne asked, causing Ethan to chuckle softly before saying,"I've bought another company, and I want to expand my business." He paused, puffing the smoke from the cigar down his throat before exhaling it slowly. "You said earlier that you wanted to help me expand my business. Well, this is an opportuni

"I didn't think you'd agree to have a meeting with me, Mr. Martinez," Payne said, walking closer to Ethan's desk as he straightened the tie on his neck,"Do you drink whiskey?" Ethan inquired, getting to his feet before walking towards the wine cabinet in his office,"What do you drink? Irish or Scotch?" He inquired."Scotch," Payne responded causing Ethan to nod before getting his hand on the bottle of Scotch whiskey in his cabinet.He took the bottle with him along with two glass cups before pouring whiskey into Payne's cup,"Why did you contact my CEO?" Ethan asked the second he had his butt back on his chair,"I wanted to discuss business." Payne responded,"And what business is that?" "I heard you transport wine to countries in Asia and I was planning on helping you expand that." Payne informed before emptying his cup of whiskey."In return for what?" Ethan inquired, sternly before sipping from his own glass of whiskey."In return something simple, that you could easily give me.
