“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

After waiting for a few more minutes, Chuck's patience finally wore thin, “Come on boys, let's go in and see what's keeping him!” He announced as he marched into the mall.As Chuck his men walked into the store, they headed straight for the counter, their eyes scanning the faces gathered there.The guy behind the counter began to fidget as soon as he saw the men, “What….What can I do for, sir?” He asked, avoiding eye contact with Chuck.“Quit the games kid, where is he? Bring him out right now or I'll….” “Or you will do what?” Ethan suddenly appeared, cutting Chuck off.Chuck furrowed his brows as he turned to face Ethan.Ethan's sudden appearance coupled with his intimidating look on his face, threw Chuck off guard for only a few seconds before his cold resolve returned.“Look kid…..” Chuck was about to respond when he laid eyes on Gabriella.Licking his lips in a flirtatious manner, he gestured at one of his men, “Bring me that damsel, will you?”“Bang!!!” The thug hard barely tak

Mr. Orlando’s discomfiture was palpable as he clenched his fists in rage, almost launching an attack on Chuck, “You moron, what do you think you are doing?”He yelled at Chuck who simply frowned, “We have a bit of a setback but I'm handling it. I was just about to put this poor fool in his place before you showed up!” Chuck responded, ignoring Mr. Orlando's outburst.Mr. Orlando gritted his teeth. It was almost impossible for him to deny his involvement any longer, “You had a very simple task! Take the money quietly and leave, yet you blew it, you and your incompetent crew!” Mr. Orlando ended his statement, with an irritated expression on his face.Loretta couldn't contain her shock! She and several other customers, including Gabriella, gawked at Ethan and Mr. Orlando.“Let me guess, the last robbery incident here was also planned but you took the fall for it while Orlando here pulled some strings to get you out!” Ethan responded glaring at both Orlando and Chuck.“I'm also guessing t

Gripping the club, Chuck suddenly swung it hard in Ethan’s direction, aiming for his head, but Ethan's sturdy grip easily caught the club in mid-air.Chuck struggled to retrieve the club from Ethan's powerful grip but all his efforts were in pain.“Is that all you've got?” Ethan suddenly asked after watching Chuck struggle to retrieve the club from his grip.Chuck’s frustration was immediately palpable as he tried to land a punch on Ethan’s face but Ethan stopped it with only one finger and swung the club at Chuck's face.“Bang!” In another second Chuck was on the ground with blood oozing freely from his mouth.All the other customers who had initially looked down on Ethan, suddenly gawked at him.“You've simply been a pawn, so I'll spare you and your men. Leave now and don't ever come back!” Ethan warned Chuck as he and his men struggled to get to their feet.Mr. Orlando was also about to leave but Ethan stopped him, “Not you! You deserve a little time out like Chuck, don't you think

Ethan simply stood there staring at Clarissa and her boyfriend without responding to any of their mocking remarks.“Baby, hope we didn't keep you waiting for too long?” A beautiful feminine voice was suddenly heard asking Ethan.“No darling, you didn't,” Ethan swiftly responded, smiling at Loretta.Gabriella also came to him and kissed him affectionately on the cheek.Clarissa and her boyfriend gasped in shock as they tried to wrap their minds around what was unfolding before them.Not one but two extremely gorgeous women were now standing beside Ethan and being very affectionate with him.“That's impossible!” Clarissa whispered to herself.She and her boyfriend had assumed that Ethan was at the shopping mall to carry shopping bags for people but now it turned out that they were both wrong.Although Clarissa was beautiful and classy, yet her beauty was nothing compared to those of Loretta and Gabriella.“Ladies, I can't believe you would both stoop so low as to associate yourselves wi

Loretta was almost certain she knew all of Ethan's businesses and wondered why the guy was claiming that Ethan owned the entire mall.Gabriella was still coming to terms with Ethan's vast wealth and connections, so she didn't exactly know what was true and what wasn't.Clarissa narrowed her eyes, “Baby, don't tell me you are taking anything from these two seriously! They are only messing with you! This jackass hasn't got a farthing.”But Clarissa’s boyfriend wasn't sure about what to believe anymore.‘Why would the young chap disregard my threat to fire him if it was all an act? Could this ordinary-looking fellow really be the owner of the entire mall?’ Clarissa’s boyfriend pondered, observing Ethan from head to toe.Suddenly a mischievous grin found its way to his lips as he spoke, “Very well then, I’ll call the district director right away and tell him the boss is here!”A few minutes later, a man in his mid-forthies hurriedly walked up to the with a funny expression on his face.Cl

“Isn't it obvious? Is this not the museum?” Ethan responded, his irritation evident in his voice.The security sneered, “Of course it is but that doesn't mean just about anyone can just walk in, especially those dressed like you! So state your mission or leave!”Ethan furrowed his brows, “So you now decide who goes into the museum and who doesn't just by what they wear? How long has this been going on?”The security guard scoffed, “And what's it to you? Who are you to ask me such questions?” He asked, narrowing his eyes at Ethan.Ethan smiled, causing the security guard to become slightly nervous.‘Why did this poor fool decide to visit the museum? And why today of all days?’ The security guard wondered as tension grew between him and Ethan.“Where is your manager? Get him down here at once!” Ethan's commanding tone shocked the guard instantly, causing him to gawk at him momentarily.The security guard appeared to be fighting an internal battle as he scowled at Ethan from head to toes
