After Ethan left the mansion, he got on his phone and made a phone call. "Hello." He said.

"Ethan, have you changed your mind?" Lorenzo asked over the phone causing Ethan to narrow his eyes, saying,

"Look, I called you for a different thing, Lorenzo, and honestly, I don't think there'll be anything that would change my mind." He was stern with his response because the fact that Lorenzo brought it up annoyed him.

"Why did you call me then?" Lorenzo asked.

He was trying to focus on the phone as he answered, "We had an agreement, Lorenzo. Have you forgotten?" He asked. That was not the main reason he called Lorenzo, but he chose to remind him about their initial agreement.

"What agreement is that, Ethan?" He asked, "because I don't recall you keeping your own side of the bargain."

Ethan put the call on speaker and placed the phone on his thigh before resting both his hands on the steering wheel. "Dana gave me a call, and I don't think there's any need for me to meet her in person. I'm no

    Lilian was sure she trailed 3 ft behind Mr. Guardo until he got to his car. "I hope to see you again, sir," she said, causing Mr. Guardo to respond with a gentle nod. After he left, she went back inside to find Ethan still on the couch, but he wasn't idle; he was going through his mail. "Do you think he's going to agree to it?" Lilian asked. Ethan let out a long sigh and got to his feet, reading to leave before he responded, "We'll have to see. For now, I have a meeting to attend." Without waiting for her to utter a single word, he walked out of the penthouse while Lilian just trailed behind him. "I have to head back to the office too," she said. "You should take the day off." He said, but Lilian instantly shook her head, saying, "No, sir. It's not necessary; I have a whole lot of things to handle today." Ethan didn't bother to argue. One of the reasons why he trusted Lilian a lot was her ability to work and how loyal and committed she was. Lilian had almost nothing to lose; sh

    "I can't send any of them. It has to be you because I believe you have the connections that I need," Ethan said, causing him to respond with a gentle nod. "I'll have to discuss it with my wife first, and I'll get back to you regarding the matter," Xavier said before checking his time."Is that all?" He asked, and Ethan just responded with a nod.After Xavier left the place, Ethan drank a glass of water and pushed his chair back before getting on his feet.He left Castle Black and headed straight to Lilian's mansion. Unfortunately, he was already running late.After about 20 minutes, Ethan arrived at Lilian's penthouse. He parked his car outside and elegantly got out of his car before slowly heading in the direction of the front door.Before he got there, Lilian opened the door, as if already being aware of his arrival."Welcome, sir. Mr. Guardo is here," she informed, causing Ethan to respond with a gentle nod."Where is he?" Ethan asked, taking a few steps into the house."Just come

    As soon as Ethan walked out of Lilian's office, his eyes met with Belinda.She kept a straight face and soon looked away before Ethan continued his walk to the elevator.For some reason, he had a weird feeling about her. Ethan left the building and drove straight to the Castle Black pub for a meeting.He had so many things to address and he needed to address them discreetly.On getting there, he was led into the VIP session. There, his Xavier wad already waiting for him with his legs crossed,"You're late." Xavier said as Ethan took a seat,"Can we begin the meeting, I have important places to be," He informed causing Xavier to seat up."You called for the meeting, so I believe I should be the one waiting for you to tell me why." Xavier said.His white hair was shining brightly in the dim light of the VIP room."I need you to do something," Ethan said sternly."I reckoned that for you to call me. You must be needing something," Xavier said with his palms together. He seemed so relaxe

    Lilian sat up and waited for Belinda to walk into the office with the files she requested. After Belinda placed the file on the table, she asked sternly, "Do you need a coffee, ma'am?" "No, I don't. Thank you." Lilian said, dismissing her. As soon as she was outside the room, Ethan asked again, "What do you know about her, and for how long has she been working as your assistant?" "Her name is Belinda Jensen, and she's from a wealthy family. She's the second daughter of Mr. Jensen, and she's been working here for 3 months," Lilian informed, causing Ethan to furrow his brows, but before he could mutter a single word, Lilian continued, "She studied at Harvard and got her master's in business there as well, so you're questioning if she's put in for the job. Believe me, she's very capable. I love how everything is organized here with her," she paused. "Honestly, sir. I'd say you need someone like her with you in the office, but currently, I have no replacement for her, and I don't thi

    On getting to Dana's previous company that was now owned by Ethan and renamed "Co Secret Company."Ethan drove into the parking lot and got down from the car. He marched into the building, and the once noisy hall instantly fell silent. Ethan strolled directly to the private elevator, but unfortunately it wasn't working.With a frown on his face, he turned to the receptionist in the hall and asked, "What's the problem with this elevator?""Em... Sir, it's not working at the moment, but we've called in someone to check what the problem is," she responded, causing Ethan to narrow his eyes before strolling towards the regular elevator.He got in and ran his hand through his hair; 4 other staff joined him in the elevator before the elevator stopped at the second floor and just one person got down.Ethan tried to stay calm because he hated being in elevators where they had to stop and carry people or probably stop people.He turned to the numbers and realized they were yet to get to the 4t

    Meanwhile, the next day, Ethan left his room already dressed for a meeting.He got to the sitting room and caught sight of Cersei with a stack of papers."Where are you going this early?" Cersei asked, causing Ethan to furrow his brows, confused."Since when did you start asking so many questions?" He asked.Cerseu just rolled her eyes and leaned closer to him. "I think now is the time you need to be even more vigilant. I want us to get what we want, and you know how serious we need to get about that because all of what happened yesterday shouldn't be for nothing." She said,Ethan didn't bother to respond; he had a lot to do and wanted to start off as soon as possible.He got to his car and drove straight to Secret Company. For, like, 3 days, he hadn't been to the company.He got inside, and the first floor was almost empty because it was still very early.He got into the elevator, and it took him straight to the top floor. Ethan walked straight to his office; the desk his assistant o
