2 days later.

"How many invites did you send out? Why do we have more people than we invited?" Ethan said, frowning.

He wanted the invite to only have a total of 25 people at most, and now, there are about 35 people in the hall.

"I invited a few other people. It's my wedding, for crying out loud. Ethan, I have all the rights to invite whomever I choose," Xavier said, feeling tipsy.

The whole event was already coming to an end. Xavier and Elia had taken their wedding vows, and Ethan saw no reason why he should remain in the hall.

"We said it was going to be a small wedding. A small wedding does not involve a lot of people," Ethan thundered.

He was displeased that he had to see a few foreign faces in the hall, people he was certain knew him, but he wouldn't say he knew them.

"35 people is small enough," Xavier said, handing a glass of wine to Ethan.

"Have a drink and relax. This only happens once, so just let me enjoy the moment," he said and left Ethan, who still seemed pissed.

    "Hello, Catelyn." Dana said. She noticed how disheveled she was; although she tried to keep her hair combed, it was still evident that she was going through a hard phase."Why are you here, Dana?" Catelyn asked, sternly, doing away with the smile she forced on her face."I heard about your divorce," she muttered, quietly."The whole country knows about my divorce," she informed, causing Dana to smile softly."Won't you offer me a drink, at least?" Dana asked, still on her feet while Catelyn was still by the stairs,"Offer you what drink?" Catelyn furrowed her brows."Of course. We're not enemies, are we? As a matter of fact, I think we have a reason to be friends now," she said quietly before Catelyn turned to the staff present in the sitting room, dismissing all but the butler.She climbed down the stairs and sat on one of the chairs before gesturing for Dana to also have a seat."What do you like to drink?" Catelyn asked,"Normally, I'd like a soft drink, but with how my day has bee

    In the USA, after Ethan had sorted a few things at Secret company, he knew it was time to consort with a business partner.On getting back to his estate, he found Dana there, right in front of her house with two policemen. "That's the man. We got a divorce, and normally, I deserve my alimony compensation, but unfortunately, he's been hiding so much wealth from me." She said,The policementurned to her and then shifted their gaze back at Ethan. "I'm sorry for the inconvenience, sir; we didn't know this was your estate." The police apologized.Meanwhile, Dana's lawyer was stunned that it didn't take the police a second to switch sides after seeing that the so-called scumbag that Dana was talking about was the mysterious boss of Secret Company."What are you talking about?" Dana asked, turning to the policemanthat spoke,"I'm sorry, ma'am, but there's no way that we could work for you under such circumstances. We know how the story between you and this man went down, and detaining him wo

    In a big watchtower in Italy, a well-built man in his late twenties stood, checking his time repeatedly. "Ciao, Mr. Lorenzo," said a man who walked in."Mi dispiace di essere in ritardo," he said, causing Lorenzo to look down at his time again and sigh."Did your mother not teach you how to speak English, Antonio?" Lorenzo asked, "Or did you forget what today is?""The 4th of July, sir." Antonio responded."Right. The 4th of July, and what is it the Americans gained today?" Lorenzo asked, calmly, looking out of one of the windows in the watchtower."Their independence." Antonio responded, causing a fickle smile to hang on Lorenzo's lips."We should celebrate them by speaking their language, don't you think?" He asked, and Antonio immediately agreed."So what was it you were saying, Antonio?" Lorenzo asked, causing Antonio to swallow hard. "I'm sorry, Mr. Lorenzo, that I came late." He muttered, causing Lorenzo to nod."Next time. You might not be able to return home," Lorenzo threat

    Elia leaned closer to Ethan and asked, "Are you okay?""Yes, I'm fine," he responded, trying to sit up.Elia turned to Cersei. "Can you get some water?" She asked. Sensing that Elia wanted to have a private moment with Ethan, "Alright," Cersei responded before leaving the table.The second Cersei was no longer in sight, Elia held Ethan's hand, asking, "Why the hell did you take such a great risk?""Go home to your daughter. I'm fine." Ethan said, causing Elia's eyes to darken in disapproval."I can't leave you here without knowing what kind of pain you might experience next," she said, causing a soft chuckle to escape Ethan's lips.Just then, the doctor arrived with the test results. Cersei, who had been in the kitchen for a while, immediately got out, "Welcome, Doctor. Please, what is wrong with my doctor?" She asked, sternly expecting a response, but got none.The doctor seemed to not have a response. "What is it, doctor?" Elia inquired, displeased by the silence."It's unfortunate

    Ethan woke up and found himself in a room. The housekeeper hurried to him. "He's awake; please get the doctor." The housekeeper said, "There's a doctor here? Why did you bring a doctor to the underground house?" Ethan asked, getting to his feet, He suddenly felt stronger than he had ever felt. "You had a great fall, sir. We found you on the fall, and you still need to rest, please." The butler muttered worriedly. "Send the doctor back, and don't make any mistake like this again. When I get home, I'll have a doctor come over to check if I'm fine." He informed, making his way back to his father's study room. The box was still on the table, just how he left it, but looking deeper, he saw that there was an opening and a note beneath the opening. "There's no turning back now," he read. He closed the box and wore his watch back; Ethan didn't forget to take the ring as well with him. He left for his car and even almost got involved in an accident. Ring! Ring! Ethan's phone suddenly

    At Ethan's Estate,After Ethan dropped Cersei and the child at home, he drove straight to the underground house that the helicopter landed at when he brought Elia home.He had been waiting for time to pass and for things to settle down before anything."Now should be the right time," he thought, knowing he had waited for a year now."Good day, sir. I didn't know you'd be coming today." The housekeeper said it, but it didn't matter.He went into his father's study. After reading books that he got from Elia, he believed he had grown wiser over the years.He placed the Mar-relic on the desk, his mother's ring, and his watch."How is this used?" He wondered because even his father didn't put them together, nor did he write how to.According to what he read in one of his journals, "This is only to keep peace," he recalled.Sitting on the desk, he sighed, "Can't things be simple now?" He wondered.Placing them on top of each other didn't help; beside each other didn't help either.Getting t
