Chapter 71
The voice of Loretta shocked everyone since she had been silent all along.“That's not happening, Miss,” Jay responded, looking at Loretta with dark interest. “Some of us can see right through this freeloader. I would advise you to ditch him and find someone with better prospects,” he added, licking his lips.“I’ll pretend like I didn't see you making advances at her. Try it again and you'll be lying right next to Mr. Morrison over there,” there was something about Ethan's voice this time that scared Jay to his bones.“How dare you accuse my boyfriend of looking at this…” “Hey, watch it! I've been more than nice to you guys but it would be a mistake to test me right now. You better address her with respect!” Ethan interrupted her with a stern warning.“Who do you think you are to speak to any of us that way? Didn't you just call my daughter a leftover just moments ago?” Martha gritted her teeth.“And was any of that untrue? Besides, was it any fault of mine that the moppet you all ca

A few minutes after the doctor administered the drug, Morrison opened his eyes to the shock and excitement of everyone in his room.The doctor beamed with joy instantly, “I told you all to trust in my abilities. I wouldn't have even been contacted in the first place if I didn't know my onions in the medical profession, he boasted.“Didn't I tell you not to listen to that punk? It's obvious he was only seeking for attention with his ridiculous remarks,” Martha chipped in, glaring at the nurse who was just rounding up with her face. She felt like slapping her again but changed her mind and just watched her leave the room.“I knew he was only bluffing, that's why I offered to kneel before him and wipe his shoes with my face!” Jay and Loretta laughed scornfully.The Campbells who were initially excited when they saw Morrison open his eyes, quickly gathered around him. But their excitement soon faded when they noticed he wasn't saying anything.“Dr. Philip, why is my father not saying anyt

The sound of a loud thud caused Ethan to turn around.Ethan wasn't too surprised to find Jay and Ariella kneeling before him. He figured out that something must have happened to Morrison like he had warned them.“What's with the drama now?” Ethan sneered at them.“We..we.. need your help. Please help us.” Ariella fought hard before the words could even leave her mouth.Her mother had taken both her and Jay aside and convinced them to quickly go after Ethan to beg him.At first, Ariella and Jay had refused to even contemplate such a thing.“Mother, how can you even suggest such a thing, knowing fully well how much trouble that lowlife has caused us!” Ariella had argued with her mother. But Martha had reminded her of what would happen to their prestigious hospital if such news came out now especially after the fire incident at their lab.Even though Martha has convinced Ariella and Jay to go after Ethan, she still had other plans.“You! Come here.” Martha called one of the nurses.“Take

Philip looked at the list that Ethan gave to him and furrowed his brows.“How do you know about all these when you are not even a doctor?” He asked with confusion written all over his face.“Just do as I say and get me those items,” Ethan responded, ignoring his question.Jonathan also took a look at the list and laughed, “Have you gone insane? Do you have any idea what these things are used for?”“You already concluded that Mr. Morrison was dead did you not? So what's with all the questions? Or did you skip some classes in medical school?” Ethan asked disdainfully.“You either allow the man to do his thing or you leave,” Henry's father responded as his temper began to rise.Even Henry was shocked at his Father's outburst as he hardly ever got angry.“Dad, please calm down. I believe grandfather will be all right.” Henry tried to calm his Father down while giving Jonathan a warning stare.Ethan found Martha's silence strange and briefly stared at her but she shot him an icy glance tha

Ethan went to Morrison and tapped him at certain acupoints and instantly Morrison's eyes opened.He sneezed a couple of times before he began to speak.The Campbells were so excited that several of them came to thank Ethan.“He is so gifted, I wish he didn't have a girlfriend, I would have asked my daughter to date him,” one of the Campbells was heard saying.Jonathan was shocked after seeing Morrison awake and even speaking. He had never seen anything like it in his entire medical practice. He looked at Ethan in disbelief, “Isn't this the same janitor that cleaned my toilet?” He whispered to himself.Philip, who was already convinced that Ethan was not an ordinary person, was about to go on his knees before Ethan but he was stopped by Ethan's firm grip.“There is no need for that Doctor Philip.”“Please young master, forgive my ignorance. You are indeed incredible. I only looked down on you because of your age and what I heard about you.” He pleaded with Ethan.“All is forgiven. Don'

The tall dark figure was none other than Zack, the police officer.“Hey, Ethan! How are you?” He greeted Ethan and waved at Loretta.“Hello, Zack. I'm fine. Are you here because of the fire incident or the viral video?” Ethan enquired.Zack shook his head, “ None actually. Though I saw the video. You were really impressive in it. I didn't know you had such exceptional medical skills.”Ethan grinned at Zack's compliment.“Thank you. So are you not here in an official capacity?” Loretta asked.“I am actually.” Zack responded with a slight frown.“Can you guys come down from the vehicle?” Zack asked, to their surprise.Ethan said nothing and only signaled to Loretta as the both came out.Zack began searching the Maserati but after searching for several minutes he found nothing. Just as he was giving up, he found something wrapped in a plastic bag that was taped just above one of the tires of the Maserati.“What's this?” Zack whispered as he opened the plastic bag and brought out the cont

“Mr. Morrison, I see our doctors have nursed you back to health,” he exclaimed excitedly.“What doctors?” Morrison asked, furrowing his brows.“Same ones that concluded I was dead?” Emiliano frowned after he heard what Morrison said.“If they concluded you were dead then how is it that you are doing so well compared to when I left?” He enquired, observing the look on Martha's face.“You have Mr. Banks to thank for that,” Henry volunteered a response.The change in Emiliano's face was visible to all in the room, “Which Mr. Banks are you referring to?” He asked as if he knew several people with the name.“The same one that was once married to your daughter!” Henry snapped, exhausted by Emiliano's pretense.Emiliano gritted his teeth in anger.“I'm sure there must be a mistake somewhere.”“The man whom you refer to as Mr. Banks knows nothing about medical practice. He lived in my house for a couple of years so I know him quite well.”“While it may be true that you know him, there is no

Andrew yelled for Mr. August’s attention as the burly men carried him out but no one paid him any attention.“Mr. Banks, forgive me for allowing that jerk to insult you, I'll gladly take whatever punishment you decide to give me!” August bowed before Ethan, causing him to feel a little uncomfortable.“It's nothing. It wasn't your fault!” Ethan waved off the matter.“This club is controlled by us. It was my responsibility to make sure it was available for our meeting tonight but I forgot to do that,” August explained to Ethan why he felt so responsible for what had just happened.Ethan nodded his head, “I understand but don't worry about it.” He insisted.“Thank you, Sir,” August responded with another bow.“You told me you have something for me?”“Yes, young master!” August quickly took out a beautiful black box.“The boss wanted you to have this.”The mere look of the box told Ethan it contained something exquisite and expensive.Ethan carefully opened it to reveal a golden ring with

Ethan returned to the villa after his meeting with August Tage to find the dining table already set.“Hmm…did I miss the invitation to a party?” He asked, enjoying the aroma that filled the villa.Loretta chuckled at his remark, “I just thought we could actually use the services of the chef that we pay monthly not to do anything,” she responded, rolling her eyes at him.Ethan grinned at her statement. “Guilty as charged,” he admitted.Since Ethan was so used to cooking for the Grays, he did most of the cooking in the villa by himself.“But this looks really good! Perhaps it's time I left the cooking to the actual pros!” He grinned.“You think?” She made a funny face that amused Ethan.“Give me a minute while I take a shower. I'll be right back!”Loretta simply nodded as she sat down to wait for him.***Andrew struggled to move his hand at the hospital.“Baby you need to keep still until you are fully recovered. Remember what the doctor said?” His girlfriend reminded him.Fortunately

Maurice was in the living room with Ian when he heard a crashing sound coming from the bedroom.Worried that something might have happened to Sarah, he rushed to the bedroom to find Sarah on the bed while pieces of her phone were scattered on the ground.“Honey, what happened,” he asked, staring at the pieces of the expensive device that she had so cherished.“I knocked my phone down by accident,” she lied, feigning worry.“It's all right. I'll get you another one.” Samantha seemed to have heard the sound as well as she also rushed into the room.“Mother! Did you just smash a 5 million dollar phone?” Samantha asked with wide eyes.“No, it was an accident..” Sarah responded before realizing what Samantha had said.Samantha, knowing her mother as she did, knew that there was no way her mother would have been this careless with her priceless phone.“What did you just say?” Morrison asked Samantha in shock.Samantha tried to deny her statement but it was no use as her father had clearly h
