The Billionaire Impotent son-in-law

Seven

Chapter 07

The noise outside the door keeps getting even more intense and Ethan knows he has to do something about it before they bring down the door.

“Calm down ladies, I’m going to open the door now and see what they want from us” He said to them.

Verena panicked and so did her friends, “They sound dangerous and I’m afraid” One of the girls said.

“They are not going to do us anything okay?, I’m going to see to it” Ethan assured them and slowly reached others to the door knob.

He didn’t want to cause any trouble besides what if it’s Gracie boss’s men that had traced him down here? He’s just going to be another reason why these girls would be in trouble.

He opens the door and faces the hefty guys, they seem like just area boys hoodlum.

He steps outside the house and faces them, “what do you guys want?” He asks them boldly without any fear.

They are about six in number and look much taller and built than he is,he didn’t really care about all those things though.

After all they might all just be big yet no strength in them to face him he believes, “Are the one living here? Tell the girls to bring out our cuts at this moment” One of the boys said.

Smoke popping out of his mouth like some mafia tugs, he wonders how a small boy like him turns out this way when he should be in school studying.

“I’m the owner of this house so you talk to me whatever it is you want” He said to them plainly.

He felt sorry for the young ones among them that turned out this way.

“Don’t be a nose poker into things that don't concern you okay? Just call them out so they will pay us and we get out of here gently” one of them said, which seems like their boss said.

“I’m not sure why I have to pay you as the owner of this house, it’s not like you own the land, not like you own the house blocks or even the street” Ethan tried to sound calm with them.

Yet his voice sounds rather too annoyed, what do they think they are to want some share from his property.

“You pay us then,You seem gentle with your looks don’t let us dirty you okay?” One of the boy said dusting his shirt  

He twists his hand backward and pushes him away from himself roughly, the rest of the boys attack her at once almost immediately.

He bent and dodge their blows attacking them on their abdomen, he threw them a few punches and they all went rolling on the floor in minutes.

The only one left standing is the guy that hasn't been saying anything since, he has been calm all along without uttering a word.

The growls from the boys made Verena and her friends open the door, they are shocked to be seeing the opposite of what they are expecting.

“Are you okay?” Verena touched him, slightly surprised to see the boys on the floor while he looked so relaxed.

The only guy who has been watching all along throws his smoked cigarettes away and heads toward Ethan throwing him a few punches.

The first one hits him hard while he is able to guide himself from the rest, he secures his balance and gives him a hard punch on his cheeks, sending his left and right teeth in the air.

The girl's eyes widened in shock, he’s such a fit man and they aren’t expecting him to be at all.

The guys all stand up holding one another in pain and walk away without uttering a word other than glaring diggers at him.

The girls keep staring at him in amazement as they head back into the house, he heads to his sturdy.

He was about to check out one of the paintings when his phone vibrated, he checked his messages and dropped the painting.

How could he forget so fast about Gracie’s grandmother, what his grandfather did to him makes him totally forget that he had to get the birthday gift.

He packs the paintings without checking and heads out of the sturdy.

“I will be taking my leave now” Ethan said immediately he set eyes on Verena.

“Why? We are already preparing something for you, just a few minutes and the table would be ready” Verena tries to make him stay.

“I have to go now, it’s quite important and maybe some other time I will take you guys out for dinner” He said to them heading towards the door.

“Okay then. A promise is forever one” Verena said after him as he turned the door knob.

“I will make sure to fulfil them” He replied and walked away, he didn't want to get back to the party late.

His mother in-law will always pick on him and he won’t want to annoy her anymore.

Few minutes later, 

“You guys haven’t got ready? Have you forgotten that tonight is mom’s birthday?” Mrs Richard snapped at the two of them.

“We will get ready now mom, just give us a few minutes!” Gracie said and they both headed upstairs to get ready.

They get back a few minutes later and the family heads out, Ethan drives out of the compound and beside him is Gracie dressed beautifully.

He can’t help but keep stealing glances at her, “We should just get a better driver! The least he could do is drive but he can’t do that even properly!” Mrs Richard complained from the back seat.

Ethan felt like the woman is always complaining about his driving skills but did she know about her other skills that he’s good at?

She’s always complaining about one thing or the other and Gracie is slowly getting pissed off, she just never liked him to begin with.

“He’s driving well mom!” Gracie half yelled at her mother.
