Ethan storms into Clara's office and she smiles. “I knew you would come to your senses, it took you too long. And to be clear, the next time you give me such silly conditions, I won't forgive or allow you to come back home.”

Ethan huffed and chuckled angrily. “You think I came here to talk about coming home? Me returning home would be the least of your worries if you don't do something about this!” He yelled and pushed the iPad to her table.

Clara looked at it with a frown. “What is that supposed to be?” She muttered.

“What does it look like?!” Ethan yelled.

“Hey, don't you dare raise your voice at me!”

“No! You don't get to tell me how to react to this. I know that you have been secretly funneling company assets to Damian Lillard, how could you do such a thing?!”

Clara froze when she heard that. How did he find out?

“Ethan, it's not what you think.” She said softly and stood up to pacify him.

“Oh it's exactly what I think! Now listen to me, you are going to end this bullshit, all of it. If you don't reverse all of these assets back to the right control, I am going to walk away, not just from our home or this marriage, but from the company as well.” He announced.

Clara's heart skipped in fear. She might no longer fancy Ethan but she couldn't undermine his importance in the company, especially now.

“Come on Ethan, don't you think you are overreacting a bit? It was just some million dollar assets, the company can survive without it.” She smiled nervously.

“Are you crazy? First off, the company might be in your name but that is not yours to give. I worked my ass off for everyone of that asset, and how could you just steal it for that good-for-nothing and say it's not a big deal? I am telling you to reverse it right now or I quit!”

“Bullshit, we both know you are bluffing. You can't quit working here or leave me, what would you do without me? You are too obsessed to think for yourself, you need me.” Clara bragged.

“I am not bluffing, Clara. I have put up with your nonsense enough, I am not going to stay silent anymore. In case you forgot, the presentation of the Nexus Home OS to potential investors is tomorrow, the event can't be held without me, the company will fail to secure the investors and it will be a huge blow and possibly the death of the project.” Ethan warned.

“Oh please.” Clara rolled her eyes. “You think too much of yourself, if you chose to leave, don't think I will beg you to stay. You are not as important as you think, Ethan Vale.” She fired.

Ethan was disappointed to hear that. “So you have made your choice then? You won't reverse the assets? Then I am done here, I quit!”

“You are of no importance, Ethan. I am doing you a favor by being married to you, so leave if you want to. I will just replace you with Damian the moment you step out from this building, I am sure he will make a better CEO, after all he knows the project just as well as you.” she mocked.

Ethan laughed. “Replace me with Damian? That's a terrible mistake, but we will see how that goes!” He declared and stormed off.

“Yeah, go ahead and run like you always do. What a weak man, you are so jealous and insecure. You are doing us all a favor by leaving, no one needs an insatiable man like you here.” Clara rambled as he walked away.

“Hmmph!” She folded her arms and stomped her feet in anger.

“So this useless man really left? Fine, I will teach him a lesson, I will make Damian CEO, when Ethan comes begging like the lap dog he is, I will make him regret walking out!” She said in anger.

  • You cheated, now I'm gone

    Ethan held his cheeks in disbelief. Did she just slap him? What was going on here? He is the one who should be offended, so why was she mad at him?“You bastard!” He yelled and tried to attack Damian but Clara pulled him back and hit him again.“Leave him alone! What are you doing here?” She yelled in embarrassment. “How can you break into someone's house like this?”“You care more about that than the fact that I just saw you having sex with him? I know you are drunk, but don't you have any shame? Letting this animal take advantage of you!”“What?” Clara laughed. “You think I am doing this because I am drunk? You are really naive, I chose to have sex with him, it was my decision!”Ethan was in shock. “What? You are cheating on me!” the reality dawned on him.“So what?” Clara laughed mockingly. “I knew Damian before you, so it's not really cheating.”Ethan couldn't believe his ears, in his twenty-five years of living, he had never heard such words.“So you don't even feel any remorse f

  • Doctor Nexus

    When Clara and Ethan arrived at the event center, Damian was waiting in front of the building. He rushed to Clara's car the moment she parked but his face crumpled immediately he saw Ethan.Damian had not expected that the Ex-CEO would be the one she called to save the day, now Ethan was going to make him look foolish.“Mr. Vale,” he forced a smile.Ethan scoffed. “Mr. Lillard, I am guessing the presentation was a little too complicated for your little brain to handle?”Damian growled and clenched his fist in anger.‘Son of a bitch! I thought we had gotten rid of him for good!’ he thought to himself.“Did you say something?” Ethan asked with a cocky smile.“No, welcome back… Sir.” Damian mumbled.“Come on Ethan, enough with the drama. The investors are waiting.” Clara pushed.“Of course, they are.” Ethan muttered.“Here are the physical documents,” Damian said, handing him a file.“That won't be necessary, in case you forgot, this is my project.” Ethan stated clearly before heading in

  • Where is the real CEO?

    The day of the presentation had come and the hall was filled with potential investors and reporters who had come to witness and record the long awaited project.But Ethan had not shown up, just like he threatened. Clara was shocked by his obstinacy, she had expected him to come running back this morning as the project had been his life's work and what mattered to him the most, but Ethan was a no-show.Clara was pissed, she knew that they needed him but she wouldn't lower her pride or satisfy his ego by calling him, so she sent up the new CEO.“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for coming here today. Allow me to introduce to you, the CEO of Valetech company…”The room was filled with cheers instantly as everyone looked forward to the CEO. Ethan had made the news several times in the past as the next big thing, he was the best graduating student in his set, a recognized tech genius and a lot of companies had offered to hire him right after school, but he met Clara who didn't want to l

  • I need my chef back

    Two days later, Ethan couldn't resist returning to work. He couldn't let his disagreement with Clara destroy the company he worked so hard for, so he showed up from the hotel to finish up the presentation.Just ten minutes after he got into the office, Clara barged in. She hadn't bothered to check on him since last night and he hadn't contacted her either. Ethan couldn't help but wonder how she was doing, she seemed fine so he fought back the urge to ask.“So you came to work?” She scoffed. “Listen Ethan, you have to come back home,” she demanded with folded arms.Ethan felt happiness hearing this, perhaps she finally came to her senses. This must mean she missed him, doesn't it? Maybe he was wrong and she really cared about him.But Clara's next words left him stunned.“I am tired of having to order takeaway morning, afternoon and night. I haven't had homemade food in two days, so you need to come home and get back in the kitchen.” she blurted.Ethan sighed and shook his head. Of cou

  • Leftover pair of shoes

    Clara flew into a rage instantly. “You are such an ingrate, Ethan. Do you know how hard it was for me to find those shoes? Who gave you the right to throw something I bought on the floor? Always complaining about everything! You are so bitter.” She blurted.“An ingrate? You gave me something that some other person rejected, a leftover pair of shoes! You pretend to care about our anniversary but you spent it out with someone else. If begging to be treated right makes me a bitter person, then so be it.” He retorted.“Oh please, save me your whole codependent act. I know the Lamborghini Damian got is why you have been acting out all day, he told me what you did! How dare you call and threaten him!”“I didn't threaten him, I just wanted to know what he did to deserve such. Why would you spend that much money to celebrate an employee?”“Hmm,” Clara scoffed. “I just told the finance department to show some appreciation for our top sales representative. Did you seriously need to call and yel
