Ethan drove down all the way from the restaurant to his apartment. Vroom! Vroom! “I can't believe he came back this early. I thought he was just joking about his return. Anyways, I'm glad that I made the meal even before his return. ”- Nadia said to herself as she dressed up at the dining table. Knock! Knock! “I'm coming, uncle Ethan. ”- she went over to the door handle and pulled it over. “Wow! Why aren't you asleep? Are you still awake because of me? ”She didn't pay attention to the question she asked earlier, she was only focused at who else was coming to join them. Ethan was astonished to see her not still looking outside the door as if she was expecting anyone. “Nadia! Shut the door immediately. No one is coming inside. I'm already inside already or can't you see me? ”“Uhmm… I wasn't.. Looking out for anyone. ”- she stuttered a bit. “That aside, please, where is my dinner? I'm really famished. ”-he fling his suit on the couch. Nadia hurriedly closed the door and turne

Ethan and Jacob looked at each other as they stood up in amusement. “How were you able to walk to my office just like that? Ethan questioned.“Are you asking me that kind of question? How about you direct that kind of question to your security men?” He pulled back the vacant chair that was in the room and sat on it.“Ethan, Is this the kind of person we intend to work with? See, how rude and proud he thinks of himself.” Jacob spoke up out of anger.“I don’t have any business to do with you, Mr. Man. I don’t know what gave you the boldness to talk to me in such a manner. Are you the one offering the contract to me? Besides, you are nothing but a handbag to your low-level boss.”“What! How dare you say such a word to me like that? You just came in here, and you are opening your stinky mouth like that. Do you know who my boss is and what he can do for you?"Aaron stood up in anger and threatened him.“I don’t know who your boss is or what he thinks he has because it's probably nonbusines

“What exactly happened right before your eyes?” Marco broke into the girl's conversations without anyone noticing his presence.The three women who were having a deep conversation about Aaron’s sudden sack letter all looked at each other in shock. Marco was standing at the back of them, but they were all bothered if he had been standing at their back since or for a while now.“Sir… We were talking about the event that we attended during our weekend.” The cleaner stuttered before putting herself back together.“Oh! Wow! Really? An event that you attended by this time of the day.” He questioned her.“We felt like now was the perfect time to discuss it since we were almost done for the day and we don’t have much work to do for now.” The other girl spoke up this time around.“Are you sure you are almost done with your work? Whether you are almost done or not, what I want to tell you all is that nobody is going to leave this building unless you show me what you’ve done today," he said to t

“What did I hear you say, Anita? Do you know what that means to me and my brand?" He fired back at her this time around and moved way closer to her, where she sat down on her chair.Anita moved backwards with the chair on her buttocks. “I said that you are a child because you have to explain to me how a grown man like you will sit down and watch your ex-wife beat you. Are you that fragile?" She responded back to him.He pulled her closer to him and grabbed her by the neck. “The next time you say such things like that to me, you won't be alive to see tomorrow. I don't know what Bella might have fed you, but the only thing I can tell you is to erase that nonsense out of your head." He said this to her as his hands were still holding tight on her neck."Ethan, you are killing me slowly." She struggled for breath as she spoke up in a cracked voice.“So, you value your life so much like this, and here you are saying filthy things about me. You are just a shameless and low-life loser." He r

“Can you hear me, Nadia?" He asked once more, but still there wasn't a response from her.He turned off the shower and quickly tied his towel, using his phone as a torchlight to look at the stairs as he walked downstairs.“Nadia, where are you? Now is not the time to play your hide-and-seek games. This is becoming scary, and I can't afford to lose you this time around." He spoke up with his torchlight, trying to search for the current box.Suddenly, he heard the sound of a cup falling down from the kitchen and the suffocating sound of a voice. He hurried straight up to the kitchen, and as he got there, he was grabbed by someone from the back, strangling his neck.“Help! Help!" Ethan screamed out for help but couldn't get a response from anyone, as everywhere was so calm that only his voice echoed through the kitchen.He made use of his back leg to kick the unknown person struggling to hold onto his neck. The moment he forcefully kicked the person, the person landed on the floor with h
