Soon the time struck 6 pm and at the Blue Moon Villa, Ethan was looking absolutely dashing. He had gone for a near cut and styled his hair impeccably. Ethan was in a suit that accentuated his already striking features, and a wristwatch added the finishing touch to his impeccable look.Inside the same hall, Elora, Mr. and Mrs. Madison were also dressed up, exuding elegance. The only person who was missing was Sophia.Elora shifted closer to Ethan, admiration in her eyes. "Brother-in-law, everyone is going to know you today. You're looking exceptionally handsome."Ethan's smile radiated confidence. "Thank you, Elora."Elora leaned in with a playful grin. "Brother-in-law, you shouldn't forget, you once promised me that if I'm done with Uni, you'll make me work for Aureus."Ethan chuckled, fondness in his eyes. "Don't worry, Elora, I always keep my word. What course are you studying in Uni?"Elora's eyes lit up with excitement. "I'm majoring in Business Administration. Ethan nodded and s
Ethan smiled and kissed her deeply. After separating, he smiled and reassured her, "Don't worry, I know how to make your parents understand everything."Sophia nodded and suggested, "Let's go and have a seat then." She then followed through.Ethan agreed, taking her hand to leave. They had only taken a few steps when they noticed two ladies approaching from the opposite side.Both Ethan and Sophia frowned deeply upon seeing Lily and Charlotte. They were both dressed elegantly. Even though Sophia didn't know who Charlotte was, seeing her with Lily already convinced her that they were birds of the same feathers. Sophia felt a surge of anger upon seeing Lily, recalling how she had almost lost her pregnancy because of her.Lily and Charlotte also spotted Ethan and Sophia and exchanged frowns.Lily was the first to speak, chuckling as she commented, "Look at them, a wealthy lady and a man living off her wealth."Charlotte cleared her throat and added, "I wonder what you both are doing her
Ethan and Sophia took a seat beside Elora and Sophia's parents. After a moment, Ethan excused himself and stood up.Navigating through the crowd, he soon spotted Giselle. While Giselle appeared stunned and surprised to see Ethan, he wasn't, as he had personally requested Victoria to extend an invitation to her.Giselle greeted him happily, "Master, you're here."Ethan smiled and complimented her, "You're looking beautiful, Giselle. I didn't expect to see you."Giselle returned the smile, explaining, "I received an invite due to managing a big hotel."Giselle was the manager of Ethans hotel which was now named the Nightingale Enchanted Hotel, although Ethan was now her boss she didn't know that he was the CEO of Aureus. Ethan nodded appreciatively, "That's okay. I've seen your good work and the profits that reflect in my account. You're doing very well."Giselle acknowledged, "I'm living a good life because of you. This is nothing compared. I'll always be willing to serve."Ethan's sm

Suddenly, the door of the chopper swung open, and a leg emerged before the person himself stepped out. Dressed in a sharp blue suit, adorned with expensive jeweled glasses and a Chopad 201 carat watch, the man was none other than William Blackwood, Ethan's father. Although the crowd couldn't see his face clearly, the opulence of his attire left everyone astonished.Following William was the Boss Lady, who served as his assistant, and two towering men, all equipped with guns. Observing this arrival, the audience couldn't contain their amazement."That must be the CEO. He looks around 40," someone speculated. Another added, "Even without seeing his face, just his attire alone must cost more than $10 million.""And look at those bodyguards with guns," remarked another, emphasizing the level of security.Lily, along with other ladies, had also risen to their feet, captivated by the spectacle. The only ones wearing expressions of shock were Sophia's parents.Elora turned to Ethan and inqui
Instantly, the room fell into a hushed stillness, every eye focused on the man who held the key to so many unanswered questions. William cleared his throat and offered a warm smile as he addressed the assembled crowd, "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, who are here to support this significant event. I believe most of you know me, and for those who didn't, you do now. My name is William Blackwood. Well, Blackwood isn't my real surname; it's a name I adopted in the business world for certain reasons. I'll reveal my true surname at a later time."He paused for a moment, allowing his words to sink in. "Many say William Blackwood is a millionaire, some say he's a billionaire, and others even venture to call him a trillionaire. But, in the end, what truly matters is that the man you see before you is a businessman."Ethan, watching his father with pride, turned to Sophia, who wore a slight air of concern. He gently wrapped his arms around her and pressed her hand softly, reassuring her.
Ethan, upon hearing his name pronounced, wasted no time. He rose to his feet, his stride purposeful as he made his way towards the stage.A collective gasp hung in the air, followed by a profound stillness that settled like a heavy shroud. The shock was visible, rendering the audience momentarily speechless.Sophia, her world suddenly a whirlwind of confusion, found herself unable to utter a word. Her gaze was fixed solely on Ethan, questions swirling in her mind, struggling to find answers.Elora and her parents, however, were visibly elated, their faces lit up with pride and joy as they watched Ethan ascend the stage.Lily and Charlotte exchanged incredulous glances. The question that echoed in their minds was one shared by many in the room: What was happening?Maxwell Carson, Olivia Lawrence, and Charles Fitzgerald, too, were left dumbfounded, unable to comprehend the turn of events before them.Giselle, her eyes locked on the stage, was equally bewildered, desperately trying to pie
"What the hell is going on Charlotte? How can Ethan be the CEO? Is this some kind of joke?" Lily's voice trembled with disbelief and confusion.Charlotte's brows furrowed, mirroring Lily's perplexity. "I'm wondering the same too, Lily. I'm utterly confused. Is he really the CEO of Aureus?"Lily vehemently shook her head. "No, this can't be. This poor guy was just a part-time cleaner and delivery guy. How could he possibly be the CEO? Besides, Ethan always told me his dad left home after his mom's death and never returned."Charlotte offered a speculative thought. "What if William Blackwood is his dad and he's now returned?"Lily's expression hardened. "No, this can't be. It's impossible. Why would they have different surnames then?"Charlotte attempted to rationalize, recalling William Blackwood's words. "Well, he did say the name Blackwood was just a business alias. What if Nightingale is their real surname?"Lily shook her head vigorously. "It's too much, Charlotte. I can't wrap my h
