The Lopez family must really be in mourning though, not to have released any official statements since Ian's demise. Emiliano’s sources had told him that Ian had indeed passed away, so he had initially wondered why they were yet to release anything official about it.“All right, we are all set then!” Emiliano finally responded, smiling at his wife.***Finally it was the day before Jay and Ariella’s wedding.Several guests who had already flown in from outside Cedarwood to grace the grand occasion were already lodged in their hotel rooms.The Grays family home was also a beehive of activities as Martha yelled out commands to several maids ahead of her only daughter's big day.Several members of the extended Gray family came in to help in whatever way that they could.“Jake!

Ethan turned to Ariella and Jay, "I see you fancy my new hotel, how would you feel if I kicked you both out?”Jay and Ariella exchanged glances, “Your new hotel? You own Le Meridien hotel?” They both asked Ethan, almost echoing each other's words.Martha gawked at Ethan, ‘Is he really the owner of this hotel?’Jay, in a bid to save face, suddenly yelled, “You can't kick us out! I can easily buy this hotel, so don't think it is such a big achievement!”Ethan took some steps toward Ariella and Jay, shooting them a mischievous smile, “How about I give you your wedding gift then!”Jay and Ariella glared in shock, unable to summon any more courage to speak after what Ethan had done to Trevor and Marcus.Ariella also caught sight of Olivia at that instant, “Olivia! You knew about this?”But Olivia ignored Ariella’s remark.

Our stocks are on free fall, I think we should pull out while we still can! Trevor yelled while pacing in Marcus’ office.“Dad, are you listening? Did you even hear a word that I just said?” Trevor asked his father when he didn't get any response.But Marcus didn't respond, he just sat down, rubbing his cheeks vigorously with his palms.

“Hello, Mr. Banks, I accept your offer. I'll tell you everything you want to know,” Marcus' voice could be heard speaking to Ethan over the phone.Trevor shook his head in resignation, he still couldn't believe all that had suddenly befallen them.“Don't look at me that way! If only your stupid brother had used his brains, none of these would have happened. Go pack your things, our time in Cedarwood has come to an end, we are leaving!” Marcus roared, throwing his glass cup against the wall.***Emiliano’s phone kept buzzing for days as various news reporters called him non-stop, requesting for an interview with him.Martha had become shadow of herself, whispering to herself day in, day out like one who had gone nuts.“I'm afraid your wife has lost her sanity,” one of Emiliano's doctors broke the news to him at Green health hospital the following day.Auntie Phina had left Cedarwood to return home, leaving Emiliano to take care of Martha. But Martha on the other hand didn't appear to b

“And what's it to you? Aren't you supposed to be in your cell room, cooling off or something?” Ariella asked, scowling at him.“Spicy, I like this one. Must be why Mr. Gray wants her!” The husky fellow responded as several other men suddenly surrounded Loretta.“Shut up, fool! You weren't supposed to mention his name! She's just bait to get that fellow that's caused Mr. Gray so much trouble,” another man responded.“Oh, for heaven's sake, quite yapping and get her already!” The husky fellow in the red mustang, yelled impatiently.Suddenly a defeaning sound was heard as all the men surrounding Loretta fell to ground, gritting their teeth from the pain ringing in their ears.“What? What's happening here?” The husky fellow in the red mustang yelled, preparing to flee.“And where do you think you are going to?” Ethan suddenly appeared in front of the mustang.“What took you so long?” Loretta asked, rolling her eyes.Ethan smiled, “I'm sorry, I had to board a taxi. Are you alright?”Lorett

“I was going to serve you on a platter to the justice department but then I remembered all the lives that you and your family have messed with and I figured one of you had to at least answer personally to those that you've wronged, so I decided to serve you up to one of your disgruntled customers,” Ethan added, smiling mischievously.“Thank you, Mr. Banks, I will never forget this!” Jimmy Wood shook Ethan while gritting his teeth at Emiliano.“Ethan, please! I would rather go to jail, please don't leave me with him, he is crazy!” Emiliano yelled, shifting uneasily.“Boys!

I don't want any disappointments, you know we are already behind schedule!” Dr. Dennis warned as John Bull exited his vehicle.***Ethan drove past the major road leading to Sunrise Villa, furrowing his brows.A vehicle had been following him for the past hour and a half, taking different things but somehow ending up on the same path as Ethan.
