"Cancel all contract collaborations with NOVATECH immediately!" The words spilled out of Ethan's lips, carrying a sense of anger and fury as he gave his command to James, who was on the other end of the phone.His bleeding hand still aches so badly, and it felt like sharp pieces of glass had gone into his flesh, but he tried his best to endure it.He tried his best to ignore the fact that he was hurt by that silly man in the VIP room. All he wanted at this point was just to end the contract that he had signed.Ethan regretted signing it that day. He regretted going to the company too. He should have just ignored it all and stayed back at his house."Are you still there, James?" Ethan called out just to be certain that James was hearing him and that he wasn't just speaking to himself."Yes, yes I am, but what I don't understand is why you suddenly have a change of mind, and even worse, at night? Did you sleep and wake up to these thoughts?" James's brows creased as he spoke to Ethan."
Just as Ethan was about to walk out, he halted in his tracks and turned to them, a taunting smile crossing his lips. “I want only males in my VIP room. I don't want any females… is that clear?” Ethan warned, and before they could respond, he turned on his heels and walked out. He headed to the room they had given him the keys to. When he got there, he unlocked the door, pushed it open, and nodded his head. “That’s more like it.” It was pretty perfect, just as he had expected and explained to the workers. He didn't want anything that looked like the office of the CEO of NOVATECH Company. He wanted a different room, and that was what he got. He strolled over to the couch and, sitting on it, pressed the button beneath the handle of the couch. Immediately, a drawer shot out from beneath where he was sitting. There were aids for treating his wound there. The VIP room came with everything and anything you could imagine. Even a knife, but there are rooms without that. Ethan took
“Fuck! I can't let him leave this way. I can't let him leave the club without taking the drink. Camilla would kill me!” Isabella panicked as her eyes quivered while she searched for what to do next to make Ethan take the drink from the table.Just then, an idea came to her mind, and without hesitation, she carried it out to make him do what she wanted.‘After all, which man wouldn't want me in his bed?’ With these thoughts, she walked closer to Ethan, who was about to leave. With her seductive gaze fixed on him, she placed her hand on his body.“What is the meaning of this?” Ethan's brows arched as he glared at her. He hated it so much—he hated the fact that she was in his space and, even more annoyingly, touching him.“Come on, you didn't even take a sip of your drink… why don't you take a sip at least? I'm sure you'd like it!” She bit her lower lip as she kept trailing her hand all over Ethan's body.“Do me a favour and get out of my face. I have somewhere to be right now, and I adv
Isabella's mind raced rapidly every single second of the night as she sat closer to the men in the car. All she wanted was to run away, but it was impossible. To think that Isabella was going to forgive her was the height of it all.It was useless, but anyway, she was going to beg for her life just as she had imagined in her head.Soon, the car came to a stop, and because Isabella couldn't see a thing, she could only follow the instructions and directions of the men holding her arm.She climbed out of the car, and they dragged her towards the entrance of an incomplete building. The second they reached the chair where Camilla would sit, they pulled Isabella down to her knees.Her knees collided with the hard concrete floor, making her furrow her brows in pain.“Where am I?” Isabella asked as she tried to see through the blindfolds, but it was a waste of time.“Take it off,” Camilla's voice echoed in the air, and immediately, Isabella froze in her tracks. She couldn't move an inch.They
Just as Camilla picked up her phone, she swiped it to the left to unlock it, and the next thing she saw made her freeze in her tracks.It was a video of Ethan and Isabella at the club, which meant that someone had seen her, and that wasn't right. That wasn't what she wanted, no matter what.“No one saw me, I swear! No one saw me!” Isabella trembled on her knees, wishing for just one thing: to flee from Camilla's presence. She wanted to run away if she could get the chance, but with such hefty men surrounding her, that was definitely not going to be possible.“Then explain this to me, Isabella! Explain why there's a video of you seducing Ethan on my phone and later you on the ground. Did you have someone follow you in secret? Is this your plan? Are you trying to blackmail me or something, Isabella?” Camilla's eyes squinted with intense fury as she glared at Isabella.“What? No! I wouldn't do that… I can't… I…” Isabella stuttered, and immediately, Camilla took the words out of her mouth
Waking up to the dawn of a new day, Ethan couldn't feel anything but an intense throbbing pain in his palm the second his eyes fluttered open.“Shit!” he exclaimed as he tightened his eyes in pain. He sat up on his bed, staring at it briefly. He felt like cutting off his arm, but that was his right hand, and anything reckless could ruin his chances of getting a good job done.Just then, he briefly recalled how he had gotten injured in his hand and didn't hesitate to clench his jaw tightly.“NOVATECH!!! I'll come for you!” he declared as he glanced at his hand one more time.Without hesitation, and knowing that he had so much work to do at the company, he stood up from the bed and made his way to the bathroom.It was pretty difficult to do anything as his right hand felt incapacitated. It felt like he had lost it already. After much struggle, he had his bath and stormed out of the bathroom.He took out his black suit and put it on, sighing and hissing in frustration every second. He fi
Arriving at a door, Ethan halted and turned to Ryan, who had been calm and quiet since they entered the company.“Are you sure that you'll be fine staying here?” he asked one more time, and immediately, Ryan nodded, confident that he could survive anywhere no matter what.“Yes, brother!” he let out, bowing his head briefly before lifting it to Ethan with a smile crossing his lips to show that he was happy with what was about to happen.With a sigh leaving Ethan's lips, he reached for the door, and pushing it open, they both walked into the room. The second the staff saw that someone had walked in and it was Ethan, they all shook and stood to their feet without thinking twice.No one wanted to lose their jobs or not retain them. No one wanted to be on the bad side of the CEO of Newhope Robotics Company. They all needed this.They were in the intern department, so it was right for them to show the respect needed to survive in the company.“Mr. Ethan!” One of the workers with the name ta
Just as they kept searching and scanning through the faces of the workers at the club, Ethan felt so weak and was about to give up when he saw her.“Stop, James! That's her right there. I am certain of it!” he declared, making James pause just as he had commanded him to do.“You want to do a background check on her?” James asked with a furrowed brow as he turned to look at Ethan. His eyes kept darting from the girl on the screen to Ethan, who sat beside him.“Yes, she's the one. Do the check right now!” Ethan urged, but James was still confused.The girl on his screen was looking more beautiful and calm than anything on earth, so how was it possible that someone like her would have a bad or negative record?James was going to press on the background tab but stopped and turned to Ethan again. “Are you sure she's the one?”“Are you going insane or something, James? I asked you to check on her and not to keep questioning me!” Ethan snapped at James's actions.“I'm sorry!” he apologised,
