Rags to Stardom Chapter 140
Davis' bodyguards instantly opened the backdoor to his Bentley as they saw him approaching.They all got into their respective cars as Davis' motorcade sped off.Gerald picked up a file that had Ethan's picture pinned to its cover, studying its content carefully.“There's nothing extraordinary about you yet you have managed to cause me so much trouble!” He thought.He laid back before hitting the button on an intercom, “Call Skyler! Tell him to see me!”“Ethan Banks, if you are hiding anything, be rest assured that I'll find it,” he narrowed his eyes before taking a whiff of his cigar.The scantily dressed ladies soon returned to his side, running their fingers all over him as his vehicle zoomed off.Meanwhile, in another vehicle parked several yards away was a man with a sophisticated-looking device in his hands that was directed at the point where Gerald's vehicle had been parked.He picked up a mobile phone and dialed a number, “They just left boss and I think they are headed your

“They are here already,” he whispered to himself as he emptied the contents of the safe into the backpack he was carrying.He ran his fingers through the content until he found a blue-colored thumb drive.A chuckle appeared on his face as he returned the drive into his backpack.The sound of the engines he had just heard became even louder, indicating that they were only seconds away.A bright idea suddenly came to his mind.Meanwhile, Leo and the rest of the men slowed down as soon as they saw Jack's car.“This is the place guys! Leo announced again over the walkie-talkie.“Get the hell out of the vehicle and bring me that fool!” Douglas yelled as he jumped out.Two of the bodyguards went to the Audi R8 and found Jack unconscious. He had been knocked out cold by Ethan!They quickly revived him and helped him out as they joined the others to go after Ethan.The steps leading to Silvia's apartment creaked under the weight of the bodyguards as they all marched in.Suddenly, they heard t

Dahlia's previous expression instantly became a nervous frown as she saw 5 menacing figures walk in.“Ambassador Gerald, I didn't you were coming!” She spoke uncomfortably.Davis frowned as soon as he spotted the Ambassador as well.“To what do we owe your visit, Ambassador?” Davis asked, shifting uncomfortably.It was the second time he was seeing the Ambassador in less than 24 hours and it wasn't a good sign.Even though both men had agreed not to be seen together publicly.The men who walked in with Gerald all held icy stares that made everyone in the living room uncomfortable.“What do we offer you, Ambassador?” Dahlia asked, stepping back tearfully.“Oh, absolutely nothing?” Gerald finally spoke.“I won't be staying for long.”The look in Gerald's eyes told Davis that something might be amiss.He gestured to one of the men behind him and he suddenly bowed and left.“Ambassador, where is your bodyguard going to?” Dahlia asked, as her eyes followed the menacing fellow.“Don't worry

Ethan was shocked as he approached the kitchen and found Loretta and Samantha preparing dinner. The aroma of the food was simply unbelievably inviting.“Hmm….hmm…” He cleared his throat in order to gain their attention.“What are you girls up to?” He asked grinning.“We are making dinner!” Samantha announced, still feeling slightly sleepy but opted to spend more time with Loretta.The two were getting closer and closer by the day.Ethan narrowed his eyes slightly and wiggled his nose.“Okay, you can come out now! I know you are there!” He voiced out with a chuckle.Laura poked her head from underneath the cabinet instantly.“Damnit! How did you know she was in there?” Loretta asked, laughing.“Does anything ever get past you?” Samantha asked, disappointed that he had caught them.“Not when it includes you two and the kitchen,” he grimaced.“Someday, we are going to take you head-on in a cooking contest!” Loretta threw an open challenge.“Bring it on girls,” Ethan chuckled.“But until

Skyler chuckled hoarsely. It intrigued him to see that they still feared him even after he was no longer a member of the group.He sniffed in air like one who had been caged and forced previously to endure stale air.There was an aroma he perceived and it appeared to be coming from inside.He smiled deviously, licking his lips in anticipation.***Ethan drove like one who was being chased, speeding through traffic lights like they were mere decorations.The way he had felt only made sense to him after the image came flooding in.She was in extreme danger and he might just be too late.The Maserati's powerful engine came through for him as in no time he slowed down in front of the safe house and leaped out even before the engine went off.Inside the apartment, Skyler went from room to room, searching for Silvia.He soon became irritated as he yelled out her name.“You are never going to find her that way!” A powerful voice sounded from behind him.Skyler furrowed his brows before turni

Gerald lay down by his pool with a pair of sunglasses over his eyes.A beautiful petite lady could be seen massaging him in a slow but rather sensual manner.“Oh, girl! If you keep doing that, I'm never going to let you leave!” He laughed, enjoying her feminine touch on his shirtless body.He turned around as she worked her fingers slowly on his back.His face suddenly contorted in pain, “Hey bi**h, watch it!” He roared in anger but before he could turn around, he heard a cracking sound from his back.Gerald yelled in pain, gritting his teeth while struggling to turn but the pain prevented him from doing so.A fellow with a mischievous grin suddenly stood over him.“Hello, Ambassador! I heard you've been looking for me, so here I am.”Ethan suddenly bent down, slapping the sunglasses from the Ambassador's face.“Guards!” He yelled through gritted teeth but no one came to his aid. Even the female that had been massaging his back was nowhere to be seen.“You can yell all you want but no

Samantha woke up the following day, smiling happily.“Good morning, Sis!” She yelled, excitedly.“Good morning, Sam!” Did anything happen? She asked, glaring at her sister.“No, I'm just happy. I feel like today would be a great day!” She chuckled excitedly.“Okay!” Loretta responded, making a face at her sister.“Let's do something fun! Let's go out. Just you and I!” She exclaimed, making a pleading gesture with her hands.Loretta shook her head, “No way, Sam! It's too dangerous. Let's wait for Ethan!”“But he may not be back anytime soon. We would be fine, Sis, come on.” She pleaded.Loretta thought about it for a few minutes and finally succumbed.“All right! Fine! But we must return quickly.”“Sure!” She chuckled as she ran inside to change before anything caused Loretta to change her mind.***Gerald paced back and forth in his office, his face wearing a concerned look.Even though the time Ethan gave to him to confess had elapsed, he wasn't too worried as he had no intention of

Ethan's heart raced at an extremely fast pace as he recognized Samantha's number.Ignoring other messages he clicked on hers and listened to it.It was a cry for help!His heart ached at the thought of Loretta and Samantha in trouble.He wondered if Gerald had discovered who he was. He had eliminated Skyler because he found out who he was, so he doubted that Gerald knew who he was.He had passed out after traveling through realms else the medallion would have alerted him of the impending danger.He quickly called the tech division of Labell Innovations and had Loretta's location tracked.As soon as he got her location he dialed another number on his phone.“Hello, Tage. I'm texting you a location, meet me there!”***“I’m only going to ask once more,” the leader of Gerald's bodyguard growled. “Where is Ethan?”Loretta and Samantha exchanged a brief glance. Samantha yanked at the chain binding her hands before stepping forward, her voice steady despite the fear in her eyes. “We don’t k
