Ariella spat out the words in such a scornful manner.Ethan furrowed his brows as he turned around to look at her.Ariella and Jay along with her mother when standing a few meters from him with contempt written on their faces.“He was my ex-husband. We got divorced after he got out of jail!” Ariella enjoyed the look that the others in the hall gave Ethan as she spoke about him.“He doesn't get to live happily with this lady beside him after messing up my life,” she whispers to herself with a devious smile.“She's right Queen. This punk has been both but trouble ever since he got released. We would be so grateful if you could put an end to his miserable existence!” Jay's tone held so much resentment.“Queen Dahlia, please listen to what my daughter and her boyfriend are saying. This piece of trash doesn't deserve to roam about freely. I still don't understand why he was released from jail in the first place! He even had the guts to lay his filthy hands on me!” Martha chipped angrily.“

The silence that followed Ethan's remark was defending.Queen Dahlia’s mind raced quickly as she tried to figure out how Ethan came about such sensitive information.“Did someone put you up to this?” Queen Dahlia suddenly asked.“Was this whole charade with my son a bid to attack me?” Dahlia wondered if Ethan actually knew anything or if he was only grasping at straws.“Mom, I'm sure he knows nothing…let's finish him off and be done with…” A thunderous slap landed on Simon’s face, reviving the pain General Cage had inflicted on him earlier.“Shut your mouth before I lose it! If you hadn't brought this lunatic in here in the first place, none of this would be happening!” She gritted her teeth in anger.“Did you just refer to me as a lunatic?” Ethan clenched his fist instantly.“Let me show you what a lunatic is capable of!”He dialed a number on his phone, “Put Silvia Wright on the phone!” He ordered the person on the other end of the line.Within a few seconds, a feminine voice was su

Simon gritted his teeth and was about to respond to Ethan when he caught the cold glare of his mother.He knew his mother was in a very bad mood and he wasn't about to make her more angry, so instead he walked towards Ethan.“What can I do for you…Sir?” He asked Ethan with a forced smile.“Oh, you would be serving us until we are done here,” Ethan responded with a mischievous grin.Simon was filled with rage but since his mother didn't want him to do anything, he remained calm and did as Ethan said.Dahlia left two of the bodyguards behind to wait for Simon while she left with the rest.Meanwhile, Ariella was still in shock as she watched everything that unfolded before them.“Did that good-for-nothing ex-husband of yours just threaten Queen Dahlia?” Martha finally summoned courage to ask after Dahlia and her bodyguards left.“How can a small fry like him threaten Queen Dahlia?” Jay snorted.“Then why did she run off like that the moment he mentioned that name?” Martha asked, furrowin

Ethan's voice stunned Ariella and Jay. Even Martha thought the voice she heard belonged to someone else, someone important until she realized it was just Ethan.Martha furrowed her brows at Ethan.“You useless thing, you've really lost your manners. Have you gone bonkers?” She yelled at Ethan.“Do you think you are the only one capable of inviting the Diamond Rhythms without notice? You must be so full of yourself!” Jay joined Martha to attack Ethan.“Since you couldn't give me a befitting wedding reception, Jay here has taken it upon himself to make up for that. He's going to invite the Diamond Rhythms to our wedding reception,” Ariella added.“And before you start having any funny ideas, you are not invited!” Martha snorted.Samantha's friends were curious to find out a little more about Ethan. They listened with keen interest to the exchange between Ethan and Ariella.“Oh, I see! Frankly, I probably gave you more than you deserved. Even a couple of chipmunks squeaking would have su

There was a displeasurable expression on the face of the man standing next to him.Both men had followed General Cage from Kingston Dome but avoided approaching Ethan.Their instruction was simple, “find out who this guy is!” And so they came to do just that.“Let's go back to tell the boss we found him,” the man with a sly smile bellowed to his counterpart before attempting to leave.“Not yet!” His counterpart roared.“I had a different arrangement with Olivia,” a smirk suddenly formed on his, arousing the interest of his counterpart.“Come with me, I'll tell you what we are going to do.”***After an eventful evening, Ethan couldn't wait to bury himself under his bedsheets.The drive from Loretta’s family home had only added to the exhaustion he felt as he had to take Samantha home before heading to his villa.“You are quite an interesting guy,” Samantha’s teasing remark still rang in his head. She was as amusing as Loretta. Initially, she had been cold towards Ethan but since Jethr

Davis Kings clenched his fists as he heard his wife narrate the tale of what Ethan had done to Simon and how he had also jeopardized the collaboration deal with Ambassador Gerald.The Kings family had suddenly become a laughing stock, thanks to Ethan.Davis had been watching his evening show, a program that showed various embarrassing moments of elite families for the entertainment of others.He enjoyed watching other elite families being displayed on the show for one embarrassing thing or the other and it had always intrigued him until moments ago.Davis had always taken pride in the fact no member of the Kings’ family had ever been involved in anything embarrassing enough to be featured on the show. There was just no one bold enough to cause such a scene!“How did Simon get involved with such a fellow in the first place?” He asked as his fists crashed into the table, causing a loud bang that left the maids shaking.They had never seen Queen Dahlia or Davis in such a mood before.

There was hesitation at the other end of the line and a part of him began to worry.“Yes….yes, I'm fine,” a frail voice finally answered, causing him to heave a sigh of relief.It was still very early in the morning, so he was quite alarmed when he saw her call.He had told her she was free to call him at any time, yet he felt troubled when he saw her call.There was a brief pause from the other end of the line before she spoke again, “I couldn't sleep…I was scared.”Ethan felt pity for her. He could tell that she was troubled. Her heart was thumping so loud that he could hear it over the phone.“Did I do the right thing?” She asked him.The intensity of her situation had begun to dawn on her.Initially, all she wanted to do was to try to do the right thing. And it had seemed so easy at first when Ambassador Gerald had offered her a better position with a bigger salary, bonus, and other perks, as well as some money…“money for your troubles,” he had called it, even though it was more t

Simon furrowed his brows as soon as he heard the voice at the other end of the line.“So what were you expecting, for me to pass up the opportunity to finally have your family featured on the evening show?” The voice at the other end of the line appeared not to care about Simon's feelings.Simon couldn't help swallowing hard as peered at the screen of his phone to see if he had dialed the right number.“Who…who is this?” He asked nervously, certain that he wasn't speaking to just an ordinary fellow at Blue Fountain Hotel.“This is President George of Blue Fountain Hotel!” the voice announced proudly.Simon frowned as he heard President George call his name.President George was in charge of the entire hotel and he was usually very busy but now he was even taking calls that were not directed to his personal line.“President George?” Simon asked as if he hadn't heard him the first time.“I…don't understand. Why are you the one answering this call?”George smiled casually, “That's my dec
