Ethan had arrived at the site on his bike. The Steeles had begun construction, and he was stunned to see how fast they were moving with the construction.

His eyes were still scanning around the building, trying to supervise all crooks and canny when he heard a commotion just outside the construction site.

Without hesitation, Ethan rushed outside. There was a girl on the floor bleeding. It turned out the car right in front of her had just hit her.

As a figure stepped out of the car from the passenger's seat, Ethan stood there with his gaze fixed on the scenario and, realizing that it was Max Steele, he grew more curious.

Seeing the figure before her, the young girl in her early twenties immediately rose to her feet despite how badly she was bleeding in her leg.

“I apologize Sir, I guess that I was not clearly looking at where I was going.” She bowed her head in respect and everyone thought that was the moment where he finally got to attend to her feet.

But as he drew closer to her, he

    Once Ethan and the girl had settled on his bike, he zoomed off and headed straight to the hospital. Ethan stood outside while she was receiving treatment and once the nurse was done, he was ushered inside.“How are you feeling?” A warm smile spread through his face while he stared at the girl who had left all bandaged.“I am doing all well. I can't thank you enough for this. I am sincerely grateful.”“It's nothing, that is what is expected of any human with even just the smallest conscience!”He exclaimed and as he sat next to her, he finally asked the question that he had failed to ask all this while.“What is your name?”“It's Sasha!” “And why were you at the construction site?” he asked, and she lowered her head as if ashamed to look him in the eyes.“I was there to search for a job. "What about you, do you work there?” She asked and Ethan could fully recall why he was there. He had abandoned his plan the moment he saw her in that situation, and knowing fully well that there was n

You should know better than anyone that, right now we are walking on eggshells and trying to scurry favors with big companies, yet you pull such a stunt.”“Stunt? Dad, you need to calm down and talk to me, because I still do not have a single clue what you are talking about.”“You have the damn iPad in your hands, so how about you take a look!” Henry, whose eyes had turned red, insisted. He caressed the bridge of his n

Zara was on the balcony, her eyes filled with tears when he rushed over and, without hesitation, she threw herself at him sobbing loudly.“Talk to me Zara, what is going on?”“I have no idea what is going on. She just started acting up, her temperature was spiking. I kept on calling out to her, but she wouldn't respond. I was so scared!” Her voice broke out as she spoke. Ethan did not say anything else rather than console her.“You need to calm down and be strong for her. I am sure that you don't want her to see you in such a state because that would only make her more sad.”He carefully wiped off the strain of tears in her eyes. Zara nodded her head and just then, the doctor stepped out of the room.“Doctor, how is she?” They both asked in unison as they both rushed over to his side, their eyes filled with curiosity as it kept trailing around the doctor.The doctor stared at both of them before giving out a long sigh. “She is out of the woods

He claims that they have encountered such a situation and, even though she is not yet fully healed, she has been properly taken care of and, in the trial stage, if it works, then we can also take Mom there.“This trial stage that you speak of, how long is it going to take, because, from the look of things, Mom doesn't have that much time?”Zara let out an exasperated sigh, even though Ethan was fully aware of that, yet he was going to give it all of his best.“I don't know, but I am going to keep trying every drug and, after the test, just to keep Mom going, even if she is not ready to continue fighting, I will fight for her sake!”His eyes darkened as he said the words and were clouded with determination.

With the thought that she was having fun with Brian out there, they both fell on the couch with a sigh of exhaustion.“So Dad, what do you think about Brian's proposal?”“It's a good one if it works, but I think that even though the Bennet might be involved in what happened to us, going after them might be a wrong move because we might just end up provoking them further.”“Is that all you are worried about in the whole situation?” Max furrowed his brows as he stared at his dad in disbelief, but Henry seemed more confused while he stared at his son.“Is there supposed to be something else that I would be worried about?”“Brian invested a huge amount of money into our company and, despite it all, it all went down the drain, anyone would be so angry about this, yes he was angry when he came to my office two days ago and was seeking help from me and today, he walks in here with a lot of money and a prop

There were so many things she kept on thinking about, yet she didn't have the gut to ask him about them.But after walking for a while and realizing that Ethan wasn't ready to give the answers that she sought, she stopped walking and turned to him.“Are we not going to talk about what happened?” she bit her lips, trying to contain the rage that was slowly building inside of her.Ethan also stopped walking, seeing the sore expression on her face. “Oh, I had no idea that you wanted to talk about it.”“Are you for real Ethan?

    Ethan crossed his legs while he felt so relaxed as he watched the wines and food being served to them. He was very conscious of the price of this wine and couldn't wait to see the amount of wealth that Brian had acquired for him to be able to afford this wine.“So, Miss. Sophia, how do you know Ethan here?” Sasha tends to grow more curious seeing the cold attitude both Brian and Sophia have been displaying.“He was my ex-husband, my broke ex who had nothing, yet I took him in and fed him. At a point, I just couldn't continue and had to let go of him.”She shrugged, staring down at Ethan, yet he remained calm, a blank expression on his face.“Ethan, are you okay sitting here and watching them treat you in such a manner?”“It's fine, I have been here on several occasions, and I am used to it”, he assured her as he whispered to her, and the more he stared at her and the concern in her eyes, Ethan was starting to believe that she was truly not a spy.Sophia and Brian enjoyed themselves so

Brian had just landed more wealth and, for her, she felt like she was on top of the world.“Sophia, please, I don't want any trouble. How about you go ahead?”“Trouble, of course, I am not here to cause trouble. I was only hoping to have a good meal, yet I had to meet you here and, since we haven't met in a while, wouldn't it be nice for all of us to stay at one table?”She suggested, her gaze turned to Brian, who seemed to have liked the idea. Ethan was about to refuse when Sasha touched his hand.“Ethan, yo

The thought of it almost brought tears to her eyes, but as she turned around and was about to leave, she heard someone calling out to her.“Sasha!” The voice sounded so much like Ethan but even as she came to a halt, she was forced to believe that it was her ear playing tricks on her until he called out to her again.“Sasha!” That was when she finally turned around and saw a man dressed in a worn-out outfit running towards her. This brought tears to her eyes. She could not hold it anymore and cried uncontrollably.“I am so sorry
