"Do I get to keep my job, Mr. Wright?" Ethan Wright felt he was about to lose his patience. He leaned back in his chair and eased his tie while maintaining to gaze at his assistant. Following a heavy sigh, he sarcastically replied, "I asked you a question, John, and you answer with another question? Answer me!" "I'm sorry, Sir. Yes. Samantha Davis came by, needing help with her kid's school requirements. Um... She - she did not have enough to pay for the school's enrollment fee." John explained how Samantha meant to just use an employment certificate to commit to her children's school fees before he explained, "I ended up lending her the money instead." "Which school?" Ethan asked. "Boss, coincidentally, The North Bright Academy," reported John. "Hmmmm," said Ethan before resting his face on his fist. "Anyway, Mr. Wright. That's when I noticed how her son seemed to be a younger version of you." John scanned Ethan's facial structure, his eyes, and the shape of his lips. He hisse
"I'd like to enroll my kids, please," said Samantha to the registration office of the North Bright Academy. She handed the check as payment, together with the enrollment form of her twins, plus the online evaluation her kids had taken long before they moved to Braeton. The academy offered an online discussion and assessment, facilitated live by one of their teachers, as an option for students who are enrolling from other cities. This was the primary reason Samantha chose the North Bright Academy. She noticed how the lady in charge was taken aback by the paper in her hand, and the same woman stood up to make a phone call a few meters away from the counter where Samantha patiently waited. When the lady returned, Samantha was told, "Miss Davis, you can take the children to their teacher. They are both assigned to K1 Kindness. A teacher assistant will be with you shortly to accompany you." "When you return, the principal would like to speak to you," said the lady from the school's r
From the CEO office of the Wright Diamond Corporation, Ethan Wright had been tapping his fingers against his desk, barely able to work, just thinking of the outcome. Ethan checked his watch and concluded it might take another half an hour for the task to be accomplished. To his surprise, however, he received the call from which he had been waiting for, half an hour too early. He narrowed his eyes, seeing the number on his mobile. He calmly leaned back in his seat while answering the call. He said, "Tell me." "Mr. Wright, the kids passed the assessment. They are actually very bright - worthy of the scholarship you offered," said the woman on the other line. "I returned the check that she gave as payment, exactly as you have instructed." Ethan nodded in approval and replied, "Good. Mrs. Kholi, thank you for doing your job. We will continue to support the academy in any way we can, but for now, the scholarship program is already closed. We have enough beneficiaries." "Ummm... Mr. W
"Mr. Wright. You have a sudden emergency meeting," John Garcia revealed right after entering the CEO's office. John's words made Ethan frown, and he answered, "I don't accept late meeting requests. You know that John - " "Sir, it's Mr. and Mrs. Song from Chandgai - across the continent." John nodded before explaining, "Yes, they happen to be around, visiting a relative here in Braeton, so they decided to come and see you." John shrugged and suggested, "At least that is what they said, but I think... they might be assessing the city if it is the right place for their business." A clear grimace became painted on Ethan's face. He checked the time and saw how it was thirty minutes to two in the afternoon, and he was expecting a visit from the chef. Unfortunately for him, Mr. and Mrs. Song were very important people he had to see. They were the owners of the famous theme park that took Asia by storm, considered the best on the continent. Because of the family-oriented experiences they
Twenty minutes earlier. A cleaning lady was vacuuming the carpet of the eighteenth floor. She noticed someone poking at her back. The lady halted her cleaning when she saw two young and adorable children. "Hello, can you point us to the main conference room?" Kenzie asked with her usual bright smile. "Um." The lady was puzzled as to why there were kids in the area, but soon the children gave their reason. "Our Daddy is in the main conference room," added Kenzie before she gave another beaming smile. "Okay. It's that way." The lady pointed and said, "Just take the right turn, and the centermost conference room is what you are looking for." "Thank you, ma'am. Have a good day," said Kyle before pulling Kenzie by the hand. As the two made their way through various divided offices, they came across employees who were shocked to see children inside the building. Still, that did not stop the twins from making their way to the conference room. They had already gone down from the
Ethan's other assistant, Joel, aided Mr. and Mrs. Song out of the conference room and down to the building lobby. The great CEO of the company, however, was left with two little kids, claiming him to be their "Daddy." Despite making him an instant father, he had the kids to thank for the pleasant parting between him and the Songs. So he turned to the little girl who remained in his arms and said, "Thank you for the help. For that, you get anything you want." Kenzie, with her little arms, embraced Ethan and said, "You are welcome, daddy!" She put a finger on her chin before asking, "I want creamy donuts!" "Daddy, I put a checkmark on the checklist here. These are characteristics of our daddy. All of which you possess. Therefore, we conclude, you are our daddy," Kyle suddenly spoke, showing Ethan his tablet. Curiosity got to him that Ethan accepted the tablet to have a look. 1. Looks like me. Check! 2. Handsome. Check! 3. In Braeton City. Check! 4. Taller than Mommy. Check!
"I - I suppose it would be fine." She could not help how her brows drew together. Samantha clarified, "I mean... It's just one dinner, right?" "Yes, just one dinner. Why? Were you expecting another one?" Ethan asked, raising his chin at Samantha. With her mouth parting, she thought, 'How in the world were my words interpreted that way?' "Um. No! Of course not," Samantha awkwardly said. "One dinner." "Good. Then I'll have my driver take you and the kids to the hotel," suggested Ethan. "Oh, there is really no need," Samantha said while raising his palm at his offer. "I have to. You are supposedly my secret wife," Ethan answered. "For all we know, Mr. and Mrs. Song are still waiting outside, observing the building." After calling his assistant and giving instructions, Ethan said, "I'll have John contact you again for when we will plan the dinner." "Okay, Mr. Right. I guess I'll see you soon," Samantha acknowledged. *** "Wow! The donuts are so yummy!" Exclaimed Kenzie after
"Mr. Wright, I'm very sorry, but Miss Davis' records are sealed!" Revealed Aiden, the hacker Ethan employed to look into Samantha. "What do you mean sealed?" Ethan asked while holding up the phone to his ear. He was leaning back in his seat, utterly disappointed at the report given by Aiden. "Well, I have her basic details and it's like what you had thought. She is the daughter of General Winfield Davis," Aiden reported. "I found a marriage certificate between Miss Davis's mother, Sarah Turner, and one Winfield Davis." "And there is no other Winfield Davis that lives in the city or any neighboring cities," added Aiden. "It could only be the general -" "Make sure of it, Aiden!" Ethan countered, raising his voice. "I don't want hunches!" "The thing is sir, most of her records are blocked from within the military itself. Thus, I can only conclude Miss Davis is related to the military somehow. Anyway, I went through some old photos from some members of the Davis family, not necessar
