The office door swung open and Sarah and Samantha walked in, with Sarah chuckling as soon as she saw Nash.

Nash heaved a sigh of relief. His heart had begun to race really fast just before Sarah walked in. Ethan's intimidating presence had shocked Nash, making him regret showing up at the office the way he did.

"Couldn't stay away from your new bride-to-be…huh?” Sarah winked at him.

Samantha ignored her mother, walking up to Loretta's side to hug her.

Since Samantha was coming to the company, she decided to join her mother when she learned she was also going to Lopez Conglomerate.

Ethan clenched his fists, glaring menacingly at Nash.

“What are you even doing here?” Samantha's irritation was evident on her face.

“Come on dear, he's here to see his bride-to-be, isn't it obvious?” Sarah responded almost immediately.

Nash wasn't even interested in having any more conversations at that moment. He just wanted to leave the office as Ethan's gaze still terrified him.

“Yes, and I was j

    The attractive-looking lady was accustomed to speaking to everyone politely but looking at Ethan, she guessed that he was an ordinary fellow. But nonetheless, she spoke to him courteously. On the other hand, two other saleswomen who noticed Ethan first when he walked in, shook their heads and laughed when they saw the other saleswoman attending to him. “Hey, isn't that Ethan Banks?” One of the other two saleswomen asked her colleague. The second saleswoman took a second look at Ethan and screamed, “Yes, it is! Is he here again to beg for a job?” The second saleswoman asked disdainfully. Ethan had in the past come to the store to seek odd jobs to do, just to support his sick mother. The two saleswomen laughed when they saw their colleague running to attend to him with excitement. Ethan looked around from where he stood, observing the store. It appeared to have very exquisite outfits. “Give us two of your best outfits,” Ethan's voice permeated throughout the store causing everyone

    The saleswoman who was initially attending to Ethan couldn't help glaring at him. He didn't look wealthy in appearance yet he was about to spend almost a million dollars. She rushed to pack the outfit and the bag but before she could do so she heard someone yell behind her, “What do you think you are doing?” The saleswoman stopped instantly as soon as she heard the voice. It was the voice of one of the other saleswomen. “What do you think you are doing? “ The other saleswoman asked again. “Have you taken a good look at the fellow who asked you to pack these outfits? Does he look like he can afford even a shoelace?” She asked, disdainfully. The saleswoman attending to Ethan frowned slightly. Although, she had observed his simple dressing, but she decided to still attend to him with an open mind. Ethan smiled, staring at the saleswoman who was mocking him. He remembered her vividly. He had pleaded with her in the past on several occasions, to allow him to clean the store for a f

    "Mr. Banks? Is that really you?” The man exclaimed. The two saleswomen and even the customers in the store couldn't believe what was happening. Was lord Howard really trembling before Ethan Banks? Even Henry was confused when he saw the reaction of lord Howard. He knew Ethan was powerful but he what he didn't know was the extent of Ethan's power and connections. Lord Howard was shocked to see Ethan. “Yes, it is, Daniel,” Ethan responded casually. The two saleswomen stared at each other in disbelief. Ethan was on a first-name basis with lord Howard? How could that be possible? “You didn't inform me beforehand that you were coming, if you did, I would have been better prepared to receive you,” lord Howard frowned slightly. The store was the newest addition to the clothing stores owned by lord Howard’s family. “It's all right, Daniel. I didn't think it was that necessary but if you insist, I'll let you know beforehand next time,” Ethan responded, smiling. Lord Howard's face li

    Meanwhile, inside the restaurant, a man and a woman could be seen talking to each other in low tones. “What are those three doing here?” The man suddenly asked when he spotted Ethan and both ladies walking into the restaurant. The woman he was with turned around to see who he was referring to. Her face instantly darkened as she saw Ethan and her lips contorted into a sly smile. A brilliant idea had suddenly popped into Sarah's head as soon as she saw Ethan and her daughters. She quickly brought out her phone and gave instructions to someone at the other end of the line. “Who was that,” the man seated opposite her asked. Sarah stared at Nash, “You will find out soon enough.” A mischievous grin instantly appeared on Nash's face as soon as he heard her response. As Ethan, Loretta, and Samantha settled into their seats, a waiter rushed to them to take their orders. Ethan requested for some hamburgers while Samantha and Loretta opted for sandwiches and some cans of soda to wash th

    Ethan shot the gorgeous lady a piercing gaze before glancing at Loretta. “Huh….you definitely don't deserve to be treated the way you've been treated. It's really not fair and I can't sit back and watch that happen further,” Loretta replied, ignoring Samantha's outburst. “I can't believe you've been leading me on all along! So you've only been deceiving me and toying with my emotions! How callous of you,” Loretta lashed out at Ethan, shocking everyone in the restaurant. At that point, both Sarah and Nash were very pleased with the actress Sarah had hired. Her performance was top-notch. “That lady is such a good actress. How did you find her?” Nash asked, obviously impressed with the gorgeous actress's display. “This should make Loretta more vulnerable to your charms,” Sarah responded with a sly smile. Loretta sat down and turned to the gorgeous lady, “I have one question though since you've been with him for some time now, you must have seen him with little or no clothes, so, the

    "Your act is rather irritating, Mom and I’m so disappointed!” Samantha yelled. Sarah frowned, “What's wrong dear? I still don't know what you are talking about.” Loretta gritted her teeth, “So, you still choose to pretend right? What were you two doing here anyway?” “Calm down baby, we were only discussing some of our wedding plans. It was supposed to be a surprise,” Nash came up with an excuse very quickly. Ethan shook his head, “You are of no use to me, Nash. So, I won't waste my time talking to you.” He turned to Sarah, “Are you telling us that you didn't send this woman?” Ethan asked her, pointing at the gorgeous actress. Sarah glanced at her briefly and scowled at both the actress and Ethan, “Why are you asking me such a question? Are you trying to use me as an excuse to deny her?” Loretta yelled at her, “Mother, there is no use pretending, we know about your plan. We saw your messages!” Sarah furrowed her brows, “What messages? I don't know this woman and I defini

    Pachenko was more determined than ever to destroy the black axe group for good and he believed that his freedom would also be more easily achievable if they were out of the picture, hence, the order for his men to go on with the attack that was slated for the following day. Meanwhile, Ethan and the girls sat in the living room, each one reminiscing about the events of the day. All three of them, especially Ethan and Loretta, were exhausted after a hectic day. Ethan stood up and returned after a few minutes with the hamburger and sandwiches from the restaurant. “Anyone still interested in these?” Ethan finally broke the silence between all three of them. Both girls nodded in unison with forced smiles on their faces. “Sure, I'm famished,” Samantha responded, reaching for a sandwich. Loretta also reached for one as Ethan sat beside her. Ethan observed both ladies for a while before speaking, “I know you both do not feel like talking about what happened with your Sarah but I'm sorr

    “Has anyone seen Andrew?” Ariella suddenly asked. Martha frowned, remembering that she hadn't seen him that morning. Both Martha and Ariella had worried looks on their faces. Jay thought for a few seconds before responding, “Maybe he's left already for Sun City.” Ariella frowned as she considered Jay's response. But why couldn't he just wait for us if that was the case? It was still relatively early in the morning, especially for someone like Andrew who wasn't known for getting up early in the morning. “Relax, I'm sure he's fine. Besides he is not a kid. Must you lot always worry about him like he is one? Emiliano’s voice rang out as he alighted from the stairs. He had overheard them talking about Andrew's absence and instantly dispelled their fears. Emiliano noticed all three of them looking exceptionally nice, so he enquired, staring at them, “Where are you all going, looking so finely dressed.” Martha chuckled, her excitement suddenly returning as she explained where they
