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
“Get me the jackass I just spoke to on the phone,” Ethan's gaze focused on the two men before him.The man with a cane suddenly appeared with Jeddia, a mocking glare on his face, “There you are. Ethan, we’ve been looking for you.”Ethan kept his gaze steady. “And why is that?”The glare on the man with a cane's face deepened. “Ambassador Gerald sends his regards. He’s not been pleased with your recent activities.”Ethan’s jaw tightened. “I gave him a chance to come clean but I guess he's made his choice.”The man laughed, a harsh, dissonant sound rocking the entire place. “And what are you going to do about it?”He eyed Ethan disdainfully, before staring at Tage. “So poor punks like you can also afford to hire bodyguards.”Tage's expression darkened instantly, his blood boiling in fury.Two other bodyguards came out with both Loretta and Samantha.The bodyguard with a cane chuckled. “Now hand over the evidence and tell us where you kept the other bi**h and maybe we’ll let you and your
Gerald's eyes darted around the room, searching for an escape route, but none was visible as Ethan stood menacingly before him. Ethan’s calm demeanor frightened him despite how hefty he was.Ethan glared at him, “How brilliant of you to have made everyone believe it was Davis while you went ahead to work as an Ambassador, flushing all that cash through the system.”Ethan approached Gerald, causing him to shift backward until his back hit the wall. “Why are you doing this?” Gerald’s trembling voice rang out.Ethan smirked. “You made it personal when you tried to hurt those closest to me!”Gerald suddenly shook the fear that had been brewing within him. He sent a punch in Ethan's direction but Ethan stopped it with a slap but didn't attempt to retaliate.“Do that again and you'll be spending your night in the same village as Simon,” Ethan warned through clenched teeth.A few moments later, several men from the Cedarwood Police Department, including Zack, came to take Gerald away.Zack
Olivia frowned as she listened to Ethan's mockery.“Why are you calling and how did you even find out that my Dad tried to get me fired?”“That's cos I made him lose the collaboration with Lopez Conglomerate and I can make him regain it again but that will only happen if you come to work for me.” Ethan's voice instantly became serious.“I'm willing to let your past wicked deeds to me slide but that will only happen if you are with me and trust me, you do not want to be against me!”Olivia chuckled, “You must have banged your head pretty bad in that fight. Do I look like a fool to you?”“All right then. Have it your way. Your father would be arrested any moment from now for embezzlement. Don't say I didn't warn you.”Olivia sneered at Ethan before ending the call abruptly.Less than ten minutes after Olivia dropped the call, a team of policemen from the Cedars Police Department came to arrest Obed for embezzlement as he had used the money paid to him for the project to throw Olivia a b
Ethan's smile deepened and he leaned back on his sofa, Within Olivia's eyes widened instantly.Ethan had told her that he could help to restore the collaboration project to Singers Holdings but she had doubted and mocked him yet the collaboration project had been given back to her. Suddenly she began to see Ethan differently.***Marcus and his sons were overjoyed. The mobsters had assured them that they would take care of Ethan once and for all.Jay received a message on his phone and became slightly uncomfortable.He quickly left the living with his eyes fixed on his father.Before Sarah could few minutes Olivia heard the sound of the doorbell.She stared in disbelief as soon as she saw her father walk into the house.She had called every single one of her father's connections and tried cashing in on all the favors that she had with well-connected individuals but none could get her Father out, not even Jay or Ariella had been able to help but Ethan did it in seconds.She became con
The mobsters wondered who their unknown visitor was.They planned to unwind a little at the hotel that day and then go after Ethan the following day.One of the men quickly opened it to see who it was.Augustine Tage walked in and instantly the men became very respectful.“What brings you boys to town?” He asked with a smirk.“Boss! A powerful ally of ours begged us for a little favor, that's all.The man responded to Tage in such a respectful manner.“All right boys, have fun, and don't forget to pay your respects to our master!” He waved at them before living.The mobsters spent the rest of the day partying and having fun.Meanwhile, Olivia dressed up in her corporate outfit and was about to leave the house when her father saw her.“What's that you have on?” He enquired with a confused look.He hadn't seen Olivia in a corporate outfit in a long while.“I'm going to work, Dad.” She quickly jumped out of the house before her father asked her any questions that she wouldn't be able to
The mobsters stormed Lopez Conglomerate looking for Ethan.Suddenly, Ethan Emerged, glaring at them viciously.The leader of the mobsters stepped forward, his gaze sharp and piercing.“You must be Ethan Banks. I've heard so much about you. You have caused a valuable ally of ours so much trouble!”“Get lost! I don't want to hurt you guys.”The leader looked back at his numerous comrades, chuckling.“Hurt us? I'd like to see you tr..”His gaze suddenly fell on Ethan's ring.“That…that ring. Who gave it to you?” He asked shakily.“It's mine!” Ethan's response caused him to almost pass out.He suddenly fell to the ground on his knees, tears running down his cheeks.“Young master, it's an honor to finally meet you. I apologize for the way I spoke to you.”He grabbed a weapon and was about to hurt himself before Ethan stopped him.“No, don't hurt yourself.” He reached out to him.“All is forgiven! You may rise!”He gestured for him to stand to his feet.The workers at Lopez Conglomerate cou
