Ethan's response came out with such force that it sent shivers to Carmelo and his men.Carmelo signaled to one of his men and he left only to return in seconds with iron clubs as they surrounded Ethan, each one of them smiling deviously.Loretta was frightened for Ethan. She quickly stood between Ethan and Carmelo, “Why don't you just take the car and we'll leave. No one has to get hurt.”Carmelo smirked, “Negotiations are over. You had your chance.”Signaling to one of his men, he screamed, “Bring her to me.”But before he could even touch Loretta Ethan sent him flying with only a jab to the abdomen.Carmelo was stunned, swallowing hard he signaled to the rest of his men so they attack him at once.Ethan swiftly moved Loretta away as he dodged the metal clubs while raining heavy punches on each of them. Painful screams could be heard from miles away as they all landed on the floor with broken bones and ribs.Carmelo in so much pain, could only speak above a whisper, “You have no idea

Inside Lopez conglomerate, Julian was already in a celebration mood. He popped a bottle of expensive champagne and took a sip before setting the glass back on the table and stepping out into the lobby. “Two for the price of one,” he whispered with raised brows. Everyone was still in shock at the explosion they had all heard a few minutes ago when Julian showed up. He cleared his throat as he began, “My fellow compatriots, the news I'm about to give you will indeed sadden you but you must all take heart. I just learned that the Vice President and the head of operations of our great company were involved in a car explosion and they are no more.” On hearing what Julian had just said, everyone immediately went into a frenzy. Suddenly, the doors swung open with Ethan and Loretta walking in. “Clap…Clap….Clap” Ethan began to clap for him. Shock and fear were etched on Julian’s face as he saw the duo alive and well. “How did you guys survive. No, it's impossible!” All the staff mem

Ethan's Cedarwood Heritage Bank account had received several huge deposits, causing the bank to temporarily freeze his account, requesting his presence.Very early the next morning Ethan and Loretta entered the main hall of Cedarwood Heritage Bank.Several customers filled the banking hall, as Ethan and Loretta made their way to the counter where a petite-looking female was seated.“Hello, please I'm here to find out why my account was blocked.”“It must probably be because it's empty.”She snapped as she momentarily looked up from her computer screen with a disdainful expression on her face.“I wonder why it wasn't even closed. It's such a waste of resources keeping empty accounts for poor customers.”Ethan stared at her, his exterior as calm as ever. He had left his villa in a hurry without putting on any of his expensive outfits, so he wasn't too surprised at the lady's judgemental behavior.At that same instant, a male banker walked up to the counter to talk to the petite lady but

The manager's son was shocked as he and the petite lady knelt before Ethan in tears. At that same instant, the manager walked into the banking hall. “What's going on? Son, why are you kneeling down?” “Your son just got you a new position in the bank.” The manager’s face was swollen with pride as he began to speak, beaming with joy. “Thank you, Sir, we promise to continue to give our…” “You are now the new Cashier and Laila is the new manager. Michael Rivers interrupted him. The manager's face went cold, What! Son, what did you do? What's going on? What stupid thing have you done this time?” But Harris kept begging Ethan. Laila immediately jumped for joy. She was on the verge of being kicked out of the bank but now she is the new manager. “You should all thank Ethan here for the promotion.” Michael Rivers chipped in with a smile. Laila’s joy knew no bounds as she kept thanking Ethan. Ethan briefly acknowledged Laila's thanks as he walked out with Loretta. Loretta

But before they could take a step towards him, he reached for a surgical blade lying on a nearby tray and flipped it expertly as it grazed the leader of the security men on the cheek before plunging into a door frame.“The next one would take your head off!”The leader instantly froze, not daring to take another step.The terrifying look on Ethan's face was enough to convince him that he meant every word.“Now we were talking about an autopsy.” He said, turning to Dr Zachary.Dr Zachary swallowed hard before speaking as it was obvious his security men could not save him Ethan.“We conduct autopsies by default when certain patients die under certain conditions, to assure the public that we do our best to save all our patients and your mother met all the conditions, so we already carried out an autopsy on her. The results are available. I can get them for you.”Ethan sneered at his response. “You do your best to save all your patients and yet you allowed my mother to die because she had

Loretta blushed as she imagined what Ethan was about to do, her emotions instantly running wild.“You have something stuck to your back,’’ he finally said before removing it.Loretta was stunned and slightly embarrassed as she had misinterpreted his actions. She quickly cleared her throat and whispered a thank you before she left.After dinner, Ethan and Loretta talked about a few things, suddenly Ethan's countenance became cold.“What's wrong? Are you still thinking about what Dr Zachary told you?” Loretta enquired, feeling concerned about Ethan.“Yes, I am. I still can't believe that they did all that to me and my poor mother.”“You need to deal with it and get done with it otherwise it will eat you up.”Ethan managed to flash her a fake smile. He knew she was right but he couldn't get himself to stop thinking about the betrayal from Ariella and her family.“I will make them pay dearly,” he said through gritted teeth.“But first I must give my mother a befitting burial.”His phone s

“What news?” Ethan feigned ignorance, grinning.Loretta gave him a funny look, “It's all over the news that Cedarwood Heritage Bank now has a new owner. Congratulations!”Ethan furrowed his brows at the news Loretta had just broken to him. He hadn't expected the news to have gotten to the media so quickly. He had been planning on surprising her with the news and taking her to dinner afterwards later that day but now his surprise has been ruined.“I wanted the news to be a surprise but now it's ruined.”Loretta blushed uncontrollably, “Alright, what if I hadn't seen the news, what was your plan?”“I was going to tell you and then take you out for dinner.”Loretta grimaced, “Then you still owe me dinner.”Ethan couldn't help laughing at the face she made, “You already found out but I agree, we still need to celebrate.”That evening at White Star hotel, Ariella and Jay could be seen holding hands in front of the hotel.“Baby, I can't believe you were able to get us a reservation at the W

Jumping out of the bathroom and fearing something terrible had happened to Loretta, Ethan came out half-unclad to find Loretta staring at her phone with tears in her eyes.“What's wrong? Are you all right?” He enquired, concern evident in his voice.“It's my grandfather, he is in very bad shape. He suddenly fell ill.”Ethan gently took her in his arms, consoling her. He pulled her face to his with one hand as he struggled to keep his own emotions at bay.“Don't worry, he'll be fine. I'll get dressed and then we'll go to see him.”Loretta swallowed hard. In her despair, she hadn't realized that he was half unclad. A tinge of embarrassment flashed across her face, as she realized the bulge between his legs.Ethan realizing it too quickly pulled away.“I'll be down in a minute,” he said as he made for his room.Half an hour later they both arrived at the Lopez family estate with Loretta racing ahead of Ethan to see her grandfather.As they arrived by his bedside, they found Ian Lopez su

Gripping the club, Chuck suddenly swung it hard in Ethan’s direction, aiming for his head, but Ethan's sturdy grip easily caught the club in mid-air.Chuck struggled to retrieve the club from Ethan's powerful grip but all his efforts were in pain.“Is that all you've got?” Ethan suddenly asked after watching Chuck struggle to retrieve the club from his grip.Chuck’s frustration was immediately palpable as he tried to land a punch on Ethan’s face but Ethan stopped it with only one finger and swung the club at Chuck's face.“Bang!” In another second Chuck was on the ground with blood oozing freely from his mouth.All the other customers who had initially looked down on Ethan, suddenly gawked at him.“You've simply been a pawn, so I'll spare you and your men.

I was just about to put this poor fool in his place before you showed up!” Chuck responded, ignoring Mr. Orlando's outburst.Mr. Orlando gritted his teeth. It was almost impossible for him to deny his involvement any longer, “You had a very simple task! Take the money quietly and leave, yet you blew it, you and your incompetent crew!” Mr. Orlando ended his statement, with an irritated expression on his face.Loretta couldn't contain her shock! She and several other customers, including Gabriella, gawked at Ethan and Mr. Orlando.“Let me guess, the last robbery incident here was also planned but you took the fall for it while Orlando here pulled some strings to get you out!” Ethan responded glaring at both Orlando and Chuck.“I'm also guessing t
