As he glared at the screen, his eyes widened in shock. “What is this?” Maurice asked Sarah, flashing his phone in front of her. Sarah glared at his phone and froze. “How….How…That's not possible. All the records…they were destroyed. How did you get this?” Sarah asked in disbelief. Ethan smiled mischievously before turning to Loretta, “Do you remember our last project design before the attack?” Loretta wiped the tears from her face before nodding, “That was an advanced cloud storage, one that became fully operational before the attack!” Nash's eyes widened in shock. Ethan had been ahead of them all along! Loretta though surprised, was too overwhelmed to show it. “All our files were already backed up before the attack, so we lost nothing!” Ethan added. Maurice's legs suddenly quivered and he fell to the ground in tears. He had loved Sarah so much after the death of Loretta's mother and had given her everything that a husband could give to his wife, yet this was how she chose t

"I won't take no for an answer, son! The company won't close down because our hardworking head of operations took a week off. I'm sure you have capable hands that could manage things while you are away. Here are your first-class tickets!” Ian quickly cut Ethan off before he could finish speaking. And almost instantly, both Loretta and Samantha walked into the office. “Ahh….there they are. Now, you three should have fun!” Ian smiled as both he and Maurice hugged the girls before leaving. Ethan stared blankly at the plane tickets in his hands and smiled to himself. Both Loretta and Samantha wore dark sunglasses to hide their swollen faces. Their faces had swollen from all the tears they had shed in the two days. Ethan walked towards both ladies and took them both into his arms. They both suddenly began to cry as the pain of Sarah's betrayal still lingered in their hearts. “Perhaps your father and grandfather were right. You both really need some time away from all these. Come on,

"Yes, you did!” They both responded in unison, bursting into laughter immediately as they stared at each other before exploring the apartment. Ethan's phone suddenly began to ring. It was Ian! “Hello son, how was your flight?” Ian's rich voice could be heard over the phone. “It was great, Mr. Lopez. We are at the apartment.” Ethan responded. “Beautiful! I hope you like it. I had the building manager reorganize it before you got there.” “Thank you, Mr. Lopez, it's perfect,” Ethan smiled, though he sensed that something was on Ian's mind. “Is everything all right, Mr. Lopez?” Ethan suddenly asked. There was a small sigh from the other end of the line, “I’m a bit concerned about the girls, how are they?” Ethan glanced in the direction of Loretta and Samantha who were busy checking out the rooms. “They are great, Mr. Lopez but I have the feeling that they aren't the only reason why you are this worried,” Ethan responded gently. Ian chuckled slightly, “You are very perceptive, Mr

Ethan had just finished speaking with Olivia over the phone. He, Loretta, and Samantha had taken a stroll around the neighborhood and were returning when he received the call from Olivia, so the girls went ahead of him. “Hey girls, you both look so gorgeous, why don't you join us over here, we are having a private party,” a young man in his early twenties was seen glaring at Loretta and Samantha. “Thanks but we'll pass!” Samantha simply responded as she brought out the key card to open the apartment's door. “Wrong answer sweetheart,” another fellow stepped out, responding to Samantha's remark. “You must be new here, so I'll permit your response just this once. You see girls, our father owns this beautiful building and as such we own you and everyone else living here, so when we tell you to jump, your response should be ‘How high' got it?” Loretta shook her head, “Since when is that a thing? Your father owns the building, and so what? Like my sister just told you, we are not inter

Marcus furrowed his brows as soon as he heard what Jay said. Jay's Father had been away on a business trip and just finally returned so Jay decided to seek for his help in getting Andrew out as Ariella had requested. “Okay, what was he accused of this time?” Marcus enquired. When Jay told him, he snorted, “That Ethan fellow again? All right, I'll make some calls right away!” Jay thanked him excitedly, “Thanks a lot, Dad. Now I can get some sleep.” Jay instantly left for his room, smiling. *** “Ahhhh…..” Thomas yelled angrily as the doctor poked at his nose. “I think it's broken,’’ Dr. Jacob told Thomas as he examined his nose. “You think?” Thomas responded, angrily. “You've been poking my nose for the last half hour only to tell me that it's broken? Even an imbecile can see that it's broken. Fix my nose at once before I lose my patience,” Thomas yelled. Doctor Jacob swallowed hard as he opened his bag and took out some anesthesia to help Thomas with the pain. “Thomas calm

Thomas yelled in pain, blood oozing from his nose. “Go home boys! Don't be stupid like your captain or whatever you call him, over here.” “He broke my nose again, tear him apart! Don't spare him!” Thomas yelled. As if waiting for a sign, Thomas' men instantly rushed at Ethan, ignoring Ethan's warning. But Ethan's fists tore through them with ease, causing them to crumble to the floor like a pack of cards. Daniel on the other hand heard his brother scream and he instantly became confused. “Didn't he just leave with four men?” He whispered to himself as he out of the sofa and headed for the other penthouse that Ethan and the girls were occupying. Daniel froze instantly as soon as he got to the door. His brother and all four men were on the floor, wreathing in pain. Daniel swallowed hard as his gaze met that of Ethan's, “Hi…Hi….it's me again from the….. from the other penthouse. I just wanted….to check on my brother,” he told Ethan in fear. “Get them out of here then!” Ethan gri

The following day, Ethan decided to explore the rest of May Paradise City with the girls. The taxi driver that had brought them from the airport on their arrival to May Paradise City was already outside waiting for them by the time they got out. “Good day, Mr. Banks, ladies!” He greeted all three of them as he held his taxi’s door open for them to enter. “Where would you like to go, Mr. Banks?” The taxi driver asked as he turned on the car engine. “Where should we start from girls?” Ethan asked both ladies with a pleasant smile on his face. *** Later that day, Mr. Wedge was seen sitting with Thomas, Daniel, and Gabriella. “Explain to me again, how an ordinary servant was able to do all these to you?” Mr. Wedge asked, staring at his sons and the men he had assigned to them. “Dad, we are sorry, I know we shouldn't have bothered him but it was all Thomas' idea!” Daniel explained. It had actually been Thomas' idea to force Loretta and Samantha over to their apartment and Daniel, n

Since Ethan couldn't afford to allow anything to worry both ladies, he quickly made up an excuse. “I'm fine, it's just something I need to take care of but I'll do that some other time, it's nothing too serious.” Loretta stared at him briefly before nodding, “All right, I'm here if you need my help.” Ethan smiled at her, before wrapping an arm round her back. *** “Baby!” Jay yelled into his cell phone as soon as he saw Ariella's call come in. “Guess what? I just spoke with my father and he told me he is currently working on getting Andrew out!” Jay broke the news to Ariella, causing her mood to instantly lighten up. There was an excited scream at the other end of the line, causing Jay to beam with pride. “Darling, I knew I could always count on you! Thank you, baby! I can't wait to show you how grateful I am!” Ariella chuckled naughtily. “I actually had something similar in mind,” Jay gave an equally naughty reply. Ariella chuckled, “And what's that?” She asked. “It's a surp
