Loretta on the other hand was shocked that Ethan was not only risking 30 million dollars but was also using his Maserati as collateral.She tried making several discreet gestures at Ethan to register her disagreement but Ethan simply smiled in response.Gabriella simply glared at her brother, both shocked and impressed with how daring he was.Damian Crown seemed to have noticed the look of displeasure on Loretta's face because suddenly he chuckled excitedly, “It appears the fellow here has met his own side of deal so let the game begin!”A few minutes later, Loretta gawked at Ethan as Damian Crown initiated a transfer of 300 million dollars to Ethan and also returned the keys to the Maserati.Ethan had defeated Damian Crown!Damian Crown was still in shock as he watched Ethan leave with Gabriella and Loretta.Even those that had been mumuring and mocking Ethan could only glare at him in shock as he walked out. The great Damian Crown had been defeated by an ordinary-looking fellow on h
Others in Ethan's shoes would have been to scared to say anything, but Ethan on the other hand spoke to them with so much boldness.The third man furrowed his brows as he turned to Ethan, “Seems you are determined to get beaten. Guys how about we teach this fool a big lesson.”As if waiting for the motivation, the other two men nodded in agreement as they both clenched their fists.All three men suddenly charged at Ethan but he was too swift for them as he simply moved away causing them to crash into the door.Ethan chortled with a mocking expression written on his face when he saw them wreathing in pain, “What fool sent you boys here anyway?”***Siren sounds blared outside a magnificent building as several men alighted from the vehicle dressed in their smart uniforms.They walked toward the entrance of the building and tapped a few times on the door.The butler suddenly opened, a slightly startled expression written on his face as soon as he saw the men in uniform door, “Welcome to
Meanwhile, Ethan, Gabriella, Loretta and Samantha went out that evening for a celebratory dinner.Ethan was surprised when he walked into the restaurant to find the diamond rhythms playing one of their sensational songs, making the mood in the exquisite restaurant perfect.Ethan turned to Loretta grinning, “You didn't have to.”Loretta chuckled, “Same way you didn't have to purchase the movie production company for my sister's sake.”Ethan smiled, “You found out about that?”“Let's just say I did some snooping into some of your secured files,” she replied, winking.Ethan shook his head, laughing. He knew sooner or later she would find out that he had been responsible for Samantha’s first movie role.“Thanks for doing that, it means a lot,” Loretta added, taking one of his hands as they joined Samantha and Gabriella at their table.***News of Mr. Camino’s arrest was soon on the lips of everyone especially those who he closely associated with and one of them was Damian Crown!“What how
Ethan was still busy at the art exhibition center when his phone suddenly rang. It was an unknown number!Ethan furrowed his brows as he picked the call, “Yes, who is this?”There was a loud chuckle at the other end of the line, “Am I speaking to Ethan Banks?” The person at the other end of the line asked disdainfully.Ethan responded with a cold tone, “Who wants to know?”“I have your girls with me, say hi to them!” The voice responded, laughing mischievously.Suddenly Loretta and Gabriella's voice could be heard in the background, screaming and calling out Ethan's name.“Do I now have your attention?” The voice at the other end of the line suddenly asked.Ethan's face darkened instantly as his grip on his phone tightened, “What do you want? If you touch even a strand of their hair, I'll end you!”There was a loud chuckle at the other end of the line, “Meet me at the address I just forwarded, don't be late!” The phone line suddenly went dead.Ethan clenched his fists as he rushed out
“Now, the way I see it, it is you who has a choice to make! You either willingly release the ladies or I put you down and allow my trigger-happy companion standing outside your apartment to go in, you choose!” Ethan narrowed his eyes at Mr. Douglas as he spoke.Mr. Douglas froze instantly, gawking at Ethan in disbelief.‘How did he find out where I live?’ He wondered.“You idiot! You dare threaten my family?” Mr. Douglas suddenly yelled, gritting his teeth.“You have ten seconds to decide or I'll make the decision for you!” Ethan suddenly snapped as his patience wore thin.Mr. Douglas was about to speak when loud bang was suddenly heard as he dropped to the ground.“Time up!” Ethan announced as he swiftly took out Mr. Douglas’ men, including Randall.In another few minutes, Zack arrived with several other men from the Cedarwood Police Department and picked up Mr. Douglas and all his men, hauling them into a police van.Ethan simply waved as Zack and the officers drove off.***Loretta
Although growing up as the daughter of Mr. Wedge, Gabriella had experienced wealth and had lived in quite luxurious places, yet she still marveled at the level of opulence that she saw at the Lopez family estate.“Welcome guys! I didn't know you were coming,” Samantha yelled excitedly as soon as she saw all three of them.“Hey baby sis, what's up?” Loretta responded, smiling.“We haven't seen you in a while, so we decided to visit,” Ethan chipped in, grinning.Gabriella simply waved at Samantha, smiling softly.“Hey Gabriella! Why don't I show you around?” Samantha offered, taking Gabriella’s hand.Ethan chuckled, amazed at how relaxed Gabriella was becoming with Loretta and Samantha.“She is adjusting quite well, reminds me of someone!” Loretta suddenly told Ethan while staring at Gabriella and Samantha as they left.Ethan's attention instantly shifted to the beautiful lady standing beside him, “And who might that be?” Ethan asked, chortling.Loretta rolled her eyes at him, “You, of

“You look worried, is there a problem?” Gabriella asked Ethan a few seconds after she sat down.Loretta had also noticed the look on his face and was also staring at him, waiting for his reply.Ethan simply chortled, “I'm okay ladies, just little setback but it's nothing that I can't handle. So what do you think about our operations here? Can we compete with those at May Paradise City?” Ethan asked, smartly changing the topic.Unknown to both Loretta and Gabriella, the little setback that Ethan was referring to, was a loss of 300 million dollars!Gabriella raised an eyebrow, “Compete? I think you will more than just compete. I think you will actually give them a run for their money! Loretta told me you were responsible for most of the upgrades that I just saw! That's crazy, Ethan. You literally rebuilt the place!” Gabriella gawked at Ethan. She felt so proud of him.Ethan chortled, “That's not entirely true, she is obviously giving me more credit than I deserve! It’s a team effort!” E
