CHAPTER 125
NO TIME TO PROCESSRuby came downstairs fully dressed, with his car keys in her hand.She had to get to work very early that morning to attend to some things, but had woken up from bed a little later than she had thought.She came downstairs to see Ava seated on the couch.She had heard her footsteps as she descended and was looking up at her.“Good morning, Ava. Are you ready for work?” Ruby asked as she walked down the stairs.Ava nodded in the affirmative.“Yes, I am,” Ava said as she stood up.She was wearing the company’s dress that they wore for work.Ruby had no time.“Alright then. I am running late. I have to go there early to attend to some things. Let us go now,” Ruby said as she walked past her.Ava followed closely.They came to the compound.Ruby got into the car, and Ava did so. The car was quickly driven outside.Ruby was driving at top speed on the highway, wanting to get to work early.It was a little foggy on the road, as it was very early in the morning.Ava sat in

THE DISTRESS CALLS“You came out today,” Ethan said as they disengaged from the hug.Keziah nodded.“Yes. It has been a lot of months since I was able to come out like this, and I woke up today feeling a lot better and more energised, so I figured I would have to do my best to come take a view of the outside world and have a feel one more time,” Keziah said.Ethan smiled.“That is very nice. It shows you are healing so fast. I am happy to see you getting better day by day,” Ethan said.Keziah let out a short, shy laugh.“So are you done looking around, or do you want to stay outside longer?” Ethan asked.“I just came out a few minutes ago, but since you are here, let’s go in,” Keziah said.“No, I want to see you walk. Let's take a stroll around the house, shall we? This time, I don't want you to use the walker. I will hold your hand and give you the support so you try. What do you say?” Ethan said with a smile on his face.“That sounds like fun. Let us give it a try.” Keziah said enth

THE VALUE-BASED PRICING PRINCIPLEEthan dropped the call and heaved a sighNow he was ready. He knew that for the next week, it was going to be a tedious one for him.He would have to run between going to the court and from there to Cley Islands every day, coupled with the other work he had to take care of back in Redwood.He knew, however, that it would be worth the wait.Ethan made it to his destination.He spent approximately about two hours in the house, attending to Mr Isaac Snr (Ike’s father).Ike came to meet him there, and they had a quiet talk after his session.Ethan explained to Ike what was wrong with his father and how he was going to treat him.Again, Ike asked him the price he was going to pay for the work to be done.“We talked about this already, Ike. Don't worry about me or the payment.We will talk about it once our father gains his strength back,” Ethan said.“I understand you, Doc. But we have to talk about that as well.The last time you came to this place, it was

TIME TO ROLLEthan sat in his car.He was in the back seat, fidgeting with his phone while Richmond drove the car.They were headed to the Cley Islands.Ethan had decided not to take flights to Cley Island since he now had a driver.The driver also served as his personal bodyguard.He was just being careful and preparing for Julius.He knew Julius was going to come after him any moment from now, and he was preparing for him.Ethan had a lot to do that day.He had to go visit Ike's father and then go to see Keziah before coming back to Redwood.He still had a meeting with the board of directors of the Creators' Empire, and then he also had to go to see his mother.He knew it was going to be a long day, and he was adequately prepared to do his best.While he sat in the back of the car fidgeting with his phone, a call came in on his phone.It was from Ike.He answered the call.“Hello, good morning, Doc. How is it going with you?” Ike asked casually when the call was answered.“Good morni
CHAPTER 121
TAKING A RISKNEXT MORNING.Ava sat in the front seat of the car as Ruby drove.She was quietly listening to what Ruby was saying.She was advising her on how to go about her life and make sure she did not land into any more trouble.“You know how hard it took you to get this. Please don't do anything that will jeopardise it.I am giving you a good chance at resting your own life, if you ever feel you can't do the job or want to quit in any way, just tell me. Don't do anything that will make you an enemy.” Ruby spoke as she drove.
CHAPTER 120
TIME FOR ACTIONEthan smiled to himself.He already knew who the caller was.He had expected Julius to call and threaten him ever since he heard he had been released.Ethan made a few calls before dropping his phone with a smile on his face.He had been expecting Julius for a long time.Now that Julius had called him, Ethan was aware Julius had already found his location.He knew Julius was going to come after him sooner or later.Ethan went downstairs to his living room to watch the television.About an hour later, he heard the sound of a car at the entrance of his house.Ethan had no idea who it was.He was in the living room when his security came.“Hello, Sir. A black Toyota Hiace is parked outside.The driver said he is Richmond, and you are aware they are coming. Should I let them in?” The guard asked.Ethan nodded.“Oh, they are here already. They have been fast. I am aware they are coming so let them in.I will be with you shortly,” Ethan said.The guard nodded and ran back to
