At Steve's Villa in Nova City. It was beaming with lights. That night was Susie's engagement dinner party and the dining table was filled with few guests.“How long will it take that fool to serve the food?” Susie snared through gritted teeth. “I think you should give him a little time”. Ava broke in with a distasteful stare.Susie let out a sigh and looked at her mum. She was disappointed at mother's neutral attitude towards the situation. She didn't hide her disappointment.“Honey, just give him a few minutes”.A calm voice beside her said, it was the first time he spoke since they got here.Susie turned to face her fiancé, Lucas Fred. He is the CEO of Ember Tech. She was happy she's finally marrying someone richer than her father. “I swear, I would crush this good- for- nothing man with my fist”. Mrs Kate's face was red and flushed. She couldn't bear it again.“Mum, I’m sure he will be out soon. He is cooking without extra helping hands”. Ava tried to plead on her husband's behalf

“This can't be happening, when the accident occurred, did I hit my head? I might be hallucinating”. Ethan said and rose up with a confused expression. “How can I be the young master of a family I know nothing about? Is this some kind of prank or what? Let me tell you, I have no money, my wife has no money again and your hypnosis will not work on me”“ You did not hit your head, nor is anyone trying to hypnotise you here, young master”. Leo said with a hint of laughter in his voice. “Please, sit down let me explain everything to you”.Ethan had no intention of sitting down, he had heard enough. Everything was baffling him and he just needed answers.“ Like I said earlier, I am the butler of the most powerful and famous family in Nova City, the Smith family. Which is your family, young master. If only we knew things would go wrong soon…” Leo paused.Ethan felt like he was a child listening to his grandfather read Bedtime stories to him. Beyond that,he could pure hatred in Leo's eyes.Le

“He's about to call his gang members”“Give up already, you fool!”“He’s such a loser”Other customers made ugly comments, but Ethan still pleaded with the manager for his phone. The manager obliged.Ethan brought out the card Leo gave him and dialled the number. He gave the phone back to the manager after the call.Few minutes later, a convoy of exotic cars parked in front of the store and an elderly man came in with men in black suits.“ What's happening here, young master?” Leo asked.When they heard the words “young master”,everyone present was shocked. Young master? Who is this shabbily dressed young master?Ethan explained everything to Leo, who took the card and swiped it again, this time it signalled a green light, indicating the transaction was successful. Everyone watching was totally shocked.People took out their phones to video as things were becoming interesting, but the men in suits stepped in, videos and pictures of Ethan's back were taken.The manager immediately beca

James smiled, “ is that all? I feel sorry for you Ethan, are you sure you really want to do this? Alright, I'll take the bet”.“That's not all”, Ethan said as he got a sheet of paper and wrote down everything He gave it to James,” sign here”.James collected the paper, read it out to the hearing of everyone, and he signed. Ethan also signed.“Now, we have binded the bet”. Ethan knew James would want to break their promise after he might have lost with the help of his sister and mother.James smiled coyly as he scratched his head, staring at his mother who was silent throughout their bet.Kate was more concerned about the deal with Emerald Group, her reputation was at stake. If they decide to bet with their lives she doesn't care.Ava was more startled by the entire event, did Ethan plan all this before asking her to take the task? She had even signalled him to stop but he simply ignored her.When everything was settled, Kate turned to Ava and smiled, “Ava, you have just two days to a

Ava had sketched a few designs but none looked worthy of a contract. She drew the last one and laid down on the couch with her laptop beside her. She fell asleep, she didn't hear when Ethan walked in. From the dining table to the living room, papers were everywhere. Ethan smiled at the sight without waking her, he picked up the papers and sat close to her. He picked a few good ones. He was amazed at how she could still make beautiful designs. He studied business management and has an idea of fashion designs. This was why Ava's grandfather had ensured they got married. He believed if they worked together Sterling Fashion would go global. Looking at the designs he knew, Glam Fashion, a subsidiary of Emerald Group, would go global with a change in designs and he would make sure she gets to work with them. He looked at the designs thoroughly, he took the laptop beside her. He was about to check out her contract proposal when Ava opened her eyes. “Hi, when did you get back?” She
