Ethan walked forward and as he handed out his credit card to the attendant, there were so many things going on in their heads while they watched and wondered if he was truly going to be able to sort out her bill.Even though Sophia knew she was in a delicate situation, she was anxious to make a mockery of him as soon as he was told that his card didn't have such funds, but everyone was stunned as the payment was accepted, and a receipt handed to him.“Thank you, Sir, thank you, Sir”. They all suddenly respect him, their heads almost touching the ground as they bowed before him, offering to help him carry the items out of the store, but Ethan blatantly refuses.Soon as he stepped out of there, Sophia hurriedly followed behind. “Ethan, wait!” She called out, and he sighed soon as he came to a halt. “What is it Sophia? Is there something else that you would like to say to me?”“First, I want to apologize for the way that I spoke to you. And also don't you get tired of being some sort of

His eyes widened in anticipation, and as he read through it, he could hear the sound of his heart throbbing.Max could not believe that this was true; it was finally happening, and their company was going to have some sort of breakthrough; just then, a knock swept through the door, and his secretary stepped in.“Sir, this file was sent to you by the Macford Alliance corporation. It says that it is regarding some sort of construction deal and you need to have it signed and submitted by tomorrow.”She carefully placed the documents on the large desk. Without hesitation, Max grabbed the document, his gaze anxiously trailing through it as a smile swept through his face.“Thanks for this; you can go ahead.” She nodded her head and walked out of there; once Max was done scrolling through his emails, he immediately rose to his feet and hurried to his father's office.He had bumped into his sister on his way but ignored her and

Max adjusted his tie while he rested his back on the chair. He knew that this was a one-time life opportunity, and he wasn't ready to miss it. Their company was on the verge of crumbling, and since the heavens had decided to smile upon them, he was going to make good use of it.“Mr. Max Steele, I have no idea why you requested to meet with me, but since I was about to get off work, and you insisted on this, then I can only guess that it must be truly important.”“Yes, I know that it must have been uncomfortable for you, but I needed to get the facts straight and, since the proposal will be submitted back to your company tomorrow, is it only proper I get everything today.”“What are you talking about?” Mr. Johnson, a middle-aged man in his early fifties, asked as he took a sip from the glass of red wine he had ordered as soon as he stepped into the restaurant.“There are some specifics relating to the designs your company requested. Like the part where it stated that for the poolside,

After his divorce from Sophia, Ethan met her on several occasions, but she never failed to humiliate him at the slightest opportunity that she got, and all of a sudden, she called him.Even though he was certain that there was something going on in her mind, he was curious, wanting to know what this was about.“I don't need you to pay me back. I am not interested in anything you have to offer Sophia, so have a nice day.”“Wait;” she called out in desperation as soon as she realized that he was about to hang up the call.“Listen, Ethan, I know that we have ended things on a bad note, but after what you did for me today, I was so touched. "I know that I can help you and I want to be able to help you.”“Help me, how?” Ethan asked, knowing fully

Sophia rose to her feet, a smile crept through her face as soon as she realized that Ethan had lost consciousness and, without hesitation, she placed a call to her father.“Dad! "It's all set, I have him all drugged, and now he is asleep” she announced, her eyes beaming with a smile as she spoke, but she noticed that the other end of the phone was silent, and she could not comprehend why he was silent.“Dad! Didn't you hear me just now?”“I did! I heard what you just said, but I was thinking that maybe we should hold up on that in the meantime because there is a huge deal that I am about to sign.”“And what does this deal have to do with anything?” Sophia narrowed her gaze, a confused expression sweeping through.“This deal is meant to be with the president of Bennett corporation, and right now, we are seeking a means to meet with him. Do you understand the kind of wealth that we are going to acquire once we get the chance to meet with a man like that? Do you even understand how power

Zara could not stop pacing around all through the night that her brother had left the mansion, no matter how many times he assured her that he got it all covered, she could not bring herself to be so certain about that.Just then, she heard his car driving in. A flush of relief gushed through her spine as she rushed outside, trying to be certain that he was the one that was back.“Ethan!” She called out as her eyes lit up in excitement and, without hesitation, she hurried up to him and wrapped her hands around him, but as soon as she had sniffed the foul smell around him, she slowly pulled away.“Why do you reek of alcohol? Did she get you to drink?”“Yeah, in fact, she was trying to get me drunk” he announced, and as he started walking back inside, Zara froze at a spot, unable to wrap her head around the price of information he had just told her.But soon as she jerked back to reality, she hurried towards Ethan, yet he looked calm, like he had everything under control.“I told you th

No matter how much he struggled, he could not sit upright. Even with his gaze fixed on the sky, he was certain that this was the hospital, but each time he tried to recall what had happened prior to his accident, he would feel a sharp pain that jerked him back to reality.“Ethan! "Ethan!” He heard a female voice calling out to him. She was staring directly at him, her eyes were red, only portraying to him that she had been crying all this while. Ethan wanted to open his mouth and assured he

He had been standing there for quite some time now and even though he knew that they were waiting for him outside, he wanted to be perfect.The door finally swung open and as Max stepped in, his gaze widened, amazed by his father's outfit.“Wow, Dad, you really put in an effort”“I know, it's our first deal in a while, right? "I can't make them know that we are going through a tough time, else they might belittle us.“Yeah I know. Sophia had been insisting on seeing you. She couldn't stand being locked up in her room.”“She should have thought about that when she decided to disgrace this family and with this last one she just pulled. I am not sure that her career is ever going to come off the mud ever again.”He responded, tucking his wristwatch around his wrist and then stared at himself again like he was trying to be certain that there was not a single spot.“You are looking all good Dad, we don't want to ke

The president of Rico Corporation had a stern expression on his face as he sat in the large armchair in his office.

I am not so certain that he would be ready to show up. In this case, he might decide to buy his way out.His right hand man carefully explained the situation to him and even though he knew that he was right, he didn't say a word while thinking it through for a long while.“P

As Ethan arrived back home, there was a mixed feeling inside of him while he thought that he had probably handled things the wrong way and there might have probably been better ways to avoid the situation.But as he arrived back home, he had noticed Zara's car in the driveway, yet there was no sign of her anywhere. He took his bath, got changed into a better outfit before walking over to the balcony and was stunned to see Zara seated there with a glass of wine and her gaze fixed outside the swimming pool.“Ethan! "You are back!” A flash of excitement raided her face as she rose to her feet and gave him a quick hug.“I saw your car outside but wasn't sure you were in here”“Yeah, I just thought that I should cool off. So go ahead and tell me how the date went with this strange girl. Were you able to get all the information that you were hoping to get?”She asked, but he groaned and finally sat next to her, pouring himself a glass of wine.“Yes I did, and she is not the kind of person I

Once Henry and Max arrived back home, they realized that Sophia was not yet back home. 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

As Ethan and Sasha took a stroll back home, while Ethan had a wide smile on his face, the more he thought about the humiliation Brian and Sophia had gone through, the more satisfaction he got as he played the whole scene in his over and over again.But Sasha, on the other hand, had a deep frown on her face. 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? You had no idea that I wanted to talk about the fact that Sophia Steele is your ex-wife and I just found out that you were also dating Zara Bennet. Now I underst

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

Sasha had immediately recognized Sophia as soon as she stood before their table. She was a model and, not to mention the fact that she had been involved in a few scandals lately, it was only natural for her to be familiar with her.But what Sasha could not comprehend was how Ethan would be familiar with someone like Sophia Steele, and she could see the uneasy feeling on his face.“How can someone like you be able to get in here?” Sophia asked, her eyes brimming with intimidation. 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

Sasha stood outside the restaurant for hours waiting for Ethan, but there was no sign of him anywhere. Her entire bones were becoming cold as she fiddled with her fingers.She felt this lump in her heart, knowing that she had just been stood up by this man and even when she thought about calling him again, just to be certain that everything was fine, but after thinking about it, she kicked against the idea.After a long while, Sasha was exhausted from waiting. 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

It was dark, Ethan was all dressed in a warm shirt and ragged trousers and was about to step out when Zara walked into his room. At first, she was stunned to see her brother dressed in such a manner, but as she moved closer to him, she started to understand what was going on here.“So you truly are going on a date with that girl”“Yes, I just need to find out if she is truly a spy sent to me”“And how are you going to find out when you will be so lost in love and nothing else will matter to you?” She asked, but he ignored her question, staring at his reflection in the mirror from head to toe.“Wait, does it mean that she doesn't know about your identity?” Zara narrowed her gaze. For a moment there, she seemed even more confused.Ethan was reluctant to speak to her, but after a deep breath, he finally turned around as he held her shoulder.“There is something that has been going on which I didn't want to tell you about since I was afraid that you would become extremely worried.”“What
