Who do you think will win this game? Camilla or Ethan? What do you think about Albert not showing up too? a coward?... Would love to get your votes, Reviews/comments and your gems. Thank you.
"I guess I'm left to do this myself!" Ethan declared as he resolved to carry out the plans without Albert, seeing that Albert was too much of a coward to show up. This made Ethan furious, but since he was already in the arms of Camilla, there was no way he would let go that easily without the ring.Without thinking twice, he grabbed her by her shoulder and turned her on the bed, switching positions with her. To get the ring, Ethan had to act as though he was into her, and that was his aim."You want me, Ethan, and I can see it in your eyes at the moment! Claim me as yours, Ethan!" she snarled as she stared at Ethan, her eyes glistening with nothing but vicious intentions.Ethan couldn't really see through her deceit or her seductive plans, but he knew that Camilla wasn't the kind of person to play with."Why don't we start with taking your dress off?" Ethan smiled as he spoke to her. Her body was going to irritate him, but he'd do just about anything to humiliate Camilla and get his
“Give it back right now, Ethan! I know you are wretched and poor, but one thing I didn't expect from you is to be a thief! Even when you are a CEO, you still have the guts to come into my house and steal from me?”Mr. Han's words cut through Ethan's heart as his fist clenched. He was angry, seeing how Mr. Han had made him look like the evil person before everyone else.Everyone had begun to see Ethan as if he wasn't fit, as if he wasn't suitable to be the CEO of the Newhope Robotics Company.Ethan's teeth clenched, and for a split second, he wished he could grab Mr. Han by his neck and just rip his throat off. Mr. Han was nothing but a cunning man that everyone should stay away from. He shouldn't be close to anyone as it stood.“Han, we both know that this isn't yours! We both know that you don't have any right to claim this diamond as yours!” Ethan snarled as he glared at him.“You speak of being greedy and wretched?” Ethan scoffed, trying to calm his nerves in the best possible way.
**Two Days Before the Party** At the gallery... “You can't help me, Ethan… why don't you take care of your own life first before being nosy and looking into that of others?” Albert questioned as he glared at Ethan. “We both know that the company is about to go into ruin, Albert, and if that should happen, I'm sorry, but you won't be the mighty Albert that everyone knows about!” Ethan said, trying to persuade Albert into joining hands with him. It was best they pulled this together because, as it stood, Albert was the good kid and he wouldn't want his own father to be mad at him. He wouldn't want to be a total disgrace to himself and his family. But joining hands with Ethan, the one kid in school who was bullied back then and not just by anyone but by Gideon, the most powerful man, and others. Albert wasn't sure if he wanted to go through all the trouble and struggles just to get the diamond ring back to his company. “It won't go into ruin, Ethan!” Albert tried convincing himself
“You shouldn't have lied the second you saw me, Mr. Han... this shows how unprofessional you are with your dirty tricks!” Albert smirked as he explained it all to Mr. Han.Mr. Han couldn't believe this; he couldn't believe that Ethan and Albert had actually joined hands to humiliate him. He knew that Ethan was smart, but he didn't know he was smart enough to humiliate him this way before everyone in the house.The executives all turned to him, shaking their heads, and they all left one after another. They were disappointed and ashamed to even stand before or beside Mr. Han. To think that they were beginning to believe Mr. Han was innocent!“You've chased them all away because of your selfish desires, Han...” Albert mocked as he glared at Mr. Han. “I'm glad that finally, I get to claim what is rightfully mine!” Albert uttered as he turned to look at Ethan, who had a fulfilling smile on his lips.“Here you go, Albert!” Ethan handed the diamond over to Albert at this moment. He was certa
Getting out of Mr. Han's home, Ethan and Albert, who had bright, fulfilling smiles on their faces, headed straight for Albert's car. It was parked outside the compound and ready to zoom off. Ethan's car was somewhere around too, but as it stood, it was obvious that his driver would take his car back home.“Come on, Ethan, I'll take you with me!” Albert urged as he wrapped his arm around Ethan's shoulders. It felt weird because Albert had never wanted this. He never wanted to be with Ethan, but now that he had gotten his diamond back, which could save his company, he wanted to hang out with Ethan.He was just like the others, and for a split second, Ethan wondered why the RRS system had urged him to help Albert.As they got closer to the car, the door was opened, and Ethan wasted no time climbing in. The second he got in, he tried to calm himself, to stay calm and not show the inner feelings he had against Albert.“Drive!” Albert commanded with a deep voice, and without hesitation, th
Ethan looked around the club building as he stood before it and just couldn't place what seemed strange. It felt as though he would die the second he entered the clubhouse.It felt like his system was trying to warn him about something.“RRS system? Are you there?” He spoke inwardly, trying to connect with his system, his hands sliding into his pockets.“Hello? Why don't you just show up when I need you?” He mumbled this time, letting out a heavy sigh of worry.At least, if RRS had spoken up, it would tell him what the future held. It would tell him if he was to die, flee, or go in.“Why won't this feeling stop?” Ethan muttered under his breath as he kept staring at the place. Just then, he recalled that only one person made him feel comfortable, and that was James.He swiftly pulled his phone from his pocket and, staring at the screen, didn't hesitate to unlock it and dial James’s contact.“Please pick up!” He begged, the cold outside the club enveloping him immediately. There was no
“I helped him get to the top in the company and I also helped him learn about your father's company, which is about to go into ruin!”Turning toward the door, Ethan and Albert were both stunned to find James standing there, a smile curling up on his lips.Although Ethan had asked him to come to the club, he just didn't believe that he'd show up this fast.“Hello, Albert… you look surprised to see me, why is that?” James uttered as he walked over to their table, sitting beside Ethan.“I see you haven't touched your drink either…” James mumbled to Ethan.“Why are you both quiet? You’re acting as though you've seen a ghost. Come on, let's drink!” James urged, seeing how tense the room had become. He didn't like it one bit.He immediately grabbed Ethan's drink, and just as he was about to take it, Albert stopped him.“You can't walk in here and take someone else’s drink… I'll order yours!” Albert notified James, but he just wouldn't stop.Although James tried his best to look tough and ha
“I am just a useless and worthless son! I can't even help my mother! I can't keep her alive!” James cried as he kept sipping from the bottle that was right before him. The way he drank himself to stupor right before Ethan's eyes made Ethan recall how hard he had tried to save his own mother back then, how he had begged almost everyone to help or save his mother. He had begged that she stay alive just for him, but then, she died after it all. Now, Ethan wouldn't want James, his friend, to go through all of this. He wouldn't be happy to know that James would lose his own mother. It was as though his own life had been switched, and it had affected James. He felt so sad seeing James cry this way and beg to be a good son. Ethan, feeling so sad, reached for James' hand and rubbed it slightly, making him turn his gaze to him. “What is happening, James? Aren't her bills being paid? Are they not working on her?” Ethan asked, a show of concern etched across his face at this moment. “
