Ethan packed his car at the side of the road and looked around, making sure no one he knew was around.As Ethan stepped out of his BMW M8, he couldn't help but notice the luxurious surroundings of the Diamond National Bank VIP section. The pristine white building was surrounded by perfectly manicured lawns and tall palm trees. The parking lot was filled with high-end luxury cars, from Lamborghinis to Bentleys, all parked in designated VIP spots.As he walked towards the entrance, he noticed that everyone around him was dressed in business suits and designer clothes, giving the impression that only the wealthy could afford to bank here. The air was filled with the sound of hushed conversations and the clicking of expensive shoes on the marble floors.As he walked towards the entrance, a security guard stepped forward and blocked his path. "Where do you think you're going?" the guard asked, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.Ethan cleared his throat and replied, "I'm here to fire the m
Elizabeth scowled in frustration. "Did you come here without permission just to extend your spending limit?" she asked pointedly.Ethan nodded briefly.Elizabeth sighed deeply, attempting to control her anger. "You could have asked one of my staff to help you with that. There's no need to come barging into my office like this," she said.Ethan shook his head. "I understand, but I specifically need to use the Platinum Privilege Enhancer machine. It's not available to regular customers, and I was hoping you could assist me with it," he explained."What?" Manager Elizabeth stood up in shock. "The privilege enhancer machine?" she asked."Yes, that one; that's what I need." Ethan repliedElizabeth grew furious at Ethan. "Did you barge into my office to make fun of me?" She asked. "Do you know what the privilege enhancer does, or do you think it extends to normal bank cards like yours?" Her voice turned cold."The Platinum Privilege Enhancer machine is a highly exclusive piece of equipment
"Oh no, I'm so sorry!" Ethan said, feeling guilty for causing the damage.The lady looked up at him, and Ethan couldn't help but notice how beautiful she was. She was about the same height as him, and while she wasn't slim, she had a curvy figure that was quite striking. "My phone!" she exclaimed, looking down at the damaged device."I'm so sorry," Ethan repeated, reaching down to pick up the phone. "Let me make it right; I'll pay for the repair or get you a new one."She picked up the phone and sighed. "It's an iPhone 14, which is very expensive. Don't worry, I'll fix it myself. It's not your fault," she said, looking at Ethan.Ethan was surprised. "Are you sure? I can pay for it," he said, feeling guilty for causing the damage.The lady smiled. "Yes, I'm sure. Don't worry about it. Just be careful next time. Someone else might have forced you to pay," she replied, patting his shoulder.Ethan was touched by the lady's kindness. He couldn't believe that someone he had accidentally cau
"Sorry, I didn't steal the card, but I can't show it to you." Ethan said. He wasn't afraid, but he didn't want to raise an alarm because it was a special card that people might recognize.At that moment, the young, beautiful lady thought Ethan had really stolen the card but was too shy to admit it. "It's ok, we'll sort this out," she said.Manager Elizabeth walked out of the bank and was surprised to see the lady still there."You're still here?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.The lady smiled and responded, "Yes, I am."Just then, Manager Elizabeth's eyes fell on Ethan, who was also still there, and she let out a sigh. "You again. Why are you still here?" she asked with an annoyed tone.The saleslady was the first person to speak."Manager Elizabeth," the saleslady interjected as she stepped forward. "This young man here has stolen a bank card from your office and refuses to hand it over.""A bank card?" The manager's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "May I have a look at the card?" sh
Elizabeth's expression turned to one of suspicion as she read the message. She carefully removed the card from the machine and examined it closely, as if searching for any signs of forgery or tampering."What is the meaning of this?" she demanded, turning to face Ethan. "Is this some kind of joke?"What?"Ethan felt a surge of frustration and anger at Elizabeth's accusatory tone. He had been telling the truth all along, and he didn't appreciate being treated like a criminal."No, it's not a joke," he said, his voice rising in volume. "I told you that card is real, and you don't have the right to accuse me of anything.""So what now? Is the machine wrong?" She asked.Ethan thought for a moment and said,"Since it's your first time handling something like this, you might have made a mistake. This is a highly protected card; maybe you should have let me enter my password."Elizabeth bristled at Ethan's outburst, but she couldn't deny the fact that the machine had rejected the card. She kn
Ethan smirked; he intentionally didn't reply. He placed the phone aside and continued driving.After a few minutes of driving, Ethan took out his phone and opened up the search engine. He typed in "boutiques in Ashville" and scrolled through the list of options that came up. After a few minutes of searching, he found one that caught his eye."Madison Avenue Couture is one of the biggest and most prestigious boutiques in the city. He followed the route and drove to that place to get himself a new set of clothes.When he got there, he parked his car and entered the big building. The building was an impressive two-story structure with huge glass windows that gave a clear view of the stylish outfits displayed inside.As he walked towards the entrance, a well-dressed saleslady greeted him with a warm smile."Good evening, sir. How may I assist you today?" She asked politely.Ethan returned the smile and said, "I'm looking for some nice clothes for myself.""Of course, sir. We have a wide va
Lily sneered at him. "Do you think you're qualified to know his name?" She asked. "You're not worthy of even his shoes, Ethan." Lily continued yelling.Ethan chuckled. "Ah, I see," Ethan replied, feigning surprise. "Well, congratulations on finding such a wealthy suitor. I'm sure he must be quite the catch," he added, a playful smirk tugging at the corners of his lips. "Go and have fun with your boyfriend and leave me alone, then, Miss. I don't know if you want me back, but if you do, sorry, I won't accept you back."Lily's eyes blazed with determination as she clenched her fists. "Until I get you arrested, Ethan, I'm not leaving. You'll rot in jail for your crimes," she hissed.Ethan's patience wore thin, and his frustration bubbled to the surface. "Enough, Lily! You've crossed the line with your accusations. I won't tolerate your baseless claims any longer," he retorted, his voice laced with anger.Lily's voice grew louder as she shouted, drawing attention from other customers. "Th
Before the saleslady could respond, Lily chimed in with a smile that seemed incongruous with the accusations she had just made. "Miss, this guy here is a thief," Lily proclaimed, pointing an accusatory finger at Ethan. Her attempt to frame him continued unabated.As Lily accused Ethan of theft, the boss listened attentively, her expression composed and observant. After Lily finished her accusations, the boss nodded calmly and said,"Thank you for bringing this to my attention. You can leave now; I will handle it." The lady said to LilyHUH?"Lily's eyes widened in disbelief. "Just like that? Are you going to spare him?" she exclaimed, her voice filled with incredulity."I said I'd take care of it, so don't worry." She replied.Lily, who was still clinging to getting Ethan arrested, replied. "He might escape if you don't get him arrested; he's actually a known guy who has done this in a lot of boutiques."The boss's serene facade transformed into a steely resolve. Her voice, laced with
