Delilah
Meanwhile, in the training room, Ethan is fighting with two trained bodyguards in the ring. The three's shirtless bodies are covered in sweat, making their muscles look even more tantalizing.This match attracted the interest of the other bodyguards. With each passing moment, the number of spectators under the ring grew. Where there were once only Lion 3, there were now nearly 20 bodyguards. Their gazes were enthusiastic, and not a few were cheering as if they were feeling the heat of the match."Mr. Ethan, apply pressure to your legs to reduce his strength!" Suddenly, Lion 3 shouted, making the atmosphere quiet as it focused on the struggle between Ethan and one of the opponents, who was now lying in the ring holding their legs.However, in this position, Ethan's legs were near the opponent's stomach, while the opponent's legs were not touching Ethan's body because his hands firmly restrained them.Unfortunately, the instruction to make him win broke his concentration. As a result, h

Ethan's lopsided grin was immediately apparent. His eyes were filled with mischief as he turned off the video and threw his phone on the bed. Afterward, he walked into the bathroom while whistling happily.The sound of splashing water could be heard not long after, still accompanied by his whistling.Elsewhere, Delilah had tried dialing Ethan's number, but by the third try, there was still no answer."Madam, the number is not active. It looks like his cell phone is deactivated," Delilah said, shaking with fear."You're not lying, right?" Mrs. Bernita's big eyes narrowed sharply, causing Delilah to shake her head brutally."No, I'm not. There is no way I would dare lie to you."But Madame Bernita still did not believe her. She stretched out her right hand, asking for Delilah's cell phone to confirm.Delilah, still overwhelmed with fear, quickly handed over her cell phone."Shit! How dare he turn off his cell phone! That bastard must have known that I would come looking for him! Damn it

Accelerate Plans
Ethan's journey to the police station went smoothly. After getting there, he went straight to one of the officers and asked, "Are you looking for me?"Suddenly, the officer, busy with his computer, immediately looked up in confusion. "What?""I'm Ethan. I just got word that the police are looking for me. Is that true?" Ethan didn't mince words at all. The serious look on his face made the officer in front of him awkward.After all, no one came this way. He was turning himself in like a guest at a friend's house."Ah, yes. Investigator Wade is on duty," he said, pointing to a table near the entrance.Ethan turned his head. "Thank you," he said and then waltzed away without hesitation.Of course, it made the officer feel even more awkward. He could only nod with a stiff smile."Investigator Wade," Ethan called after reaching the desk of the officer who was looking for him.Investigator Wade looked up. But he was surprised to find out that the one who called him was the one he was lookin

The Glory to Come
Hazel was surprised at first, but considering what had just happened, she nodded in understanding. This step would not have been taken if the other party had not taken a step forward that crossed the line. "I will discuss this with Miss Celeste immediately.""If there's a faster time, then that's better," Ethan said as he walked to his chair and began to sink into his work.Hazel nodded and left to take care of it.When Ariana got this news, her mood instantly improved."Jade, I'm not dreaming, right?" she asked her secretary with sparkling eyes."No, Miss. It's all because of your efforts and hard work," Jade smiled happily.Ariana nodded vigorously. The blush on her face was even more noticeable, as radiant as someone in love. "Our company is truly blessed. The CEO of Zenith Corp, who has never appeared in public and even refused meetings with well-known companies, is now willing to review our project in person. Jade, this is a great blessing. Our company will improve by leaps and b

I'm the CEO
Hazel smiled and nodded faintly. Then, she slowly walked over to Ariana and took the cup of tea in front of her. "Thank you, Miss Celeste.""There's no need to be shy, Miss Hazel. After this, we will become family in this project. And I will need a lot of your help. So, I hope we can run smoothly with maximum results," Ariana said."Maybe it's too early to say. But, let's toast to our partnership," she continued as she raised her teacup, making Hazel couldn't help but follow her movements, and then, with a smile, she sipped her tea gracefully.Meanwhile, outside the villa, Ethan stayed in his car with his gaze straight at the large building in front of him.He tried to control himself by neutralizing his suddenly raging feelings.This wasn't the first time he had met Ariana after the divorce, but with the plans he had put in place and what had happened over the past two weeks, he felt his emotions were running high even though they hadn't met face-to-face."You can do it, Ethan.

Collaboration Cancelled
Ariana turned her gaze forward, and it brought her face to face with Ethan.For a few seconds, only silence enveloped them. But afterward, Ariana's laughter broke out. The woman laughed out loud while holding her cramping stomach."You?" Ariana pointed at Ethan's face and laughed again. Jade did the same this time. "Ethan, I never thought that a crazy bastard like you could make a joke like this. Your dreams must be so high that you're going crazy because you can't achieve them. Hahaha, ouch, my stomach. You really are a crazy person."After a while, Ariana stopped her laughter and looked at Ethan sharply. "You think I'm stupid? A loser like you can't possibly be the CEO of an amazing company like Zenith Corp.""Why not?" Ethan stepped forward with a hate-filled look in his eyes, making Ariana pause and unconsciously step back. "The words you threw at Hazel should have been directed at yourself.""Ariana, you've never known me well. So you don't know anything about me. Even if I becom

Formal Introduction
Immediately, an official photo of Ethan was released by the company forum and some of Zenith Corp's social media. There wasn't any caption on it, but unexpectedly, it caught the attention of netizens. They began to conjecture, and some even argued because they couldn't accept each other's comments.At that moment, Ethan was already in the helicopter, heading to Zenith Corp along with Hazel."Is everything ready?" Ethan asked."Yes. The media is already on site," Hazel replied.Ethan nodded, adjusted his sunglasses, and gazed out, taking in the beauty of the scenery like he had never seen before.After a while, the helicopter managed to get on the roof of Zenith Corp. Several bodyguards waiting there moved quickly to form a line on both sides, welcoming Ethan's arrival."Welcome, Mr. Ethan Aldebaron!"Ethan didn't avert his eyes and stepped straight ahead while straightening his suit.A bodyguard ran a little ahead and opened the door.In the press conference room, the employees greete

"Good afternoon," Ethan greeted them boldly.Instantly, they caught his gaze and smiled politely. "Welcome, Mr. Ethan.""Shall we get started?" asked Ethan, making them hurriedly nod."Of course."When everyone was seated quietly, Ethan opened his voice again. "Before we get into the serious stuff, do you have anything to say? This is our first meeting, and I'm sure your brains must be abuzz with thoughts.""Just say it, I'll hear it well," he continued, placing both hands on the table, preparing to listen to their words carefully.Out of the eight people in the room, four people were confidants of Mr. Kinsey. So, as soon as these words came out, they immediately shook their heads. But it was different with the other four people. They seemed to look at each other and whispered to each other."Mr. Ethan, are you really our CEO?" Finally, one of them asked out loud.Ethan immediately looked at him. But then that gaze turned to confusion. "Then if not me, who else? There's no way I can c

In chaos
Ethan walked hurriedly, followed by Hazel. Both of their faces looked anxious. But once he reached the turn to the lobby, Ethan's steps spontaneously stopped. His gaze went straight to someone surrounded by security guards."Why didn't you say that Mrs. Celeste made the noise?" Ethan's voice sounded low and flat."I'm sorry, sir. But you just rushed off without asking," replied Hazel, who lowered her gaze, feeling guilty.Ethan fell silent again.He watched intently how angry Mrs Bernita was as the security guards held her hand to take her out by force. The woman who was always dressed to impress looked like she had lost her sanity."Get out, you bastard! You're a liar! There is no CEO like you! As a person who cooperates with Zenith Corp, I strongly oppose your existence! You don't deserve to hold this noble status, loser! You're just a poor, troubled man! An uneducated ex-convict!""Come out and see me, damn it!" Mrs. Bernita went berserk and pushed away the security guards who appr

Hurry up!
"Mom, what do you mean?" Mr. Celeste immediately turned his head and asked with dislike. "My children have their own intelligence. Aren't you the one who always praises them?""That's because I didn't know she was this stupid!" Great Mistress Celeste approached, followed by the two servants holding her hands.The older woman's gaze then fell on Madame Celeste, and she grew even angrier. "It must all be because of her! A foolish wife gives birth to a foolish child! Bernita, are you tired of living? I thought your careless nature had disappeared, but it's still clinging on tightly. It's fine if you show it at home, but why are you acting up in front of the reporters? You're such a fool!""Ma!" shouted Mrs. Bernita in disgust."What I did earlier was out of concern for Celeste's family. Why do you have the heart to call me names like this? Besides, stop bringing my daughter into my problems! Ariana did nothing wrong!" At a time like this, Madame Bernita looked very hostile towards Great
