“Mr. Morrison, I see our doctors have nursed you back to health,” he exclaimed excitedly.“What doctors?” Morrison asked, furrowing his brows.“Same ones that concluded I was dead?” Emiliano frowned after he heard what Morrison said.“If they concluded you were dead then how is it that you are doing so well compared to when I left?” He enquired, observing the look on Martha's face.“You have Mr. Banks to thank for that,” Henry volunteered a response.The change in Emiliano's face was visible to all in the room, “Which Mr. Banks are you referring to?” He asked as if he knew several people with the name.“The same one that was once married to your daughter!” Henry snapped, exhausted by Emiliano's pretense.Emiliano gritted his teeth in anger.“I'm sure there must be a mistake somewhere.”“The man whom you refer to as Mr. Banks knows nothing about medical practice. He lived in my house for a couple of years so I know him quite well.”“While it may be true that you know him, there is no
Andrew yelled for Mr. August’s attention as the burly men carried him out but no one paid him any attention.“Mr. Banks, forgive me for allowing that jerk to insult you, I'll gladly take whatever punishment you decide to give me!” August bowed before Ethan, causing him to feel a little uncomfortable.“It's nothing. It wasn't your fault!” Ethan waved off the matter.“This club is controlled by us. It was my responsibility to make sure it was available for our meeting tonight but I forgot to do that,” August explained to Ethan why he felt so responsible for what had just happened.Ethan nodded his head, “I understand but don't worry about it.” He insisted.“Thank you, Sir,” August responded with another bow.“You told me you have something for me?”“Yes, young master!” August quickly took out a beautiful black box.“The boss wanted you to have this.”The mere look of the box told Ethan it contained something exquisite and expensive.Ethan carefully opened it to reveal a golden ring with
Ethan returned to the villa after his meeting with August Tage to find the dining table already set.“Hmm…did I miss the invitation to a party?” He asked, enjoying the aroma that filled the villa.Loretta chuckled at his remark, “I just thought we could actually use the services of the chef that we pay monthly not to do anything,” she responded, rolling her eyes at him.Ethan grinned at her statement. “Guilty as charged,” he admitted.Since Ethan was so used to cooking for the Grays, he did most of the cooking in the villa by himself.“But this looks really good! Perhaps it's time I left the cooking to the actual pros!” He grinned.“You think?” She made a funny face that amused Ethan.“Give me a minute while I take a shower. I'll be right back!”Loretta simply nodded as she sat down to wait for him.***Andrew struggled to move his hand at the hospital.“Baby you need to keep still until you are fully recovered. Remember what the doctor said?” His girlfriend reminded him.Fortunately
Maurice was in the living room with Ian when he heard a crashing sound coming from the bedroom.Worried that something might have happened to Sarah, he rushed to the bedroom to find Sarah on the bed while pieces of her phone were scattered on the ground.“Honey, what happened,” he asked, staring at the pieces of the expensive device that she had so cherished.“I knocked my phone down by accident,” she lied, feigning worry.“It's all right. I'll get you another one.” Samantha seemed to have heard the sound as well as she also rushed into the room.“Mother! Did you just smash a 5 million dollar phone?” Samantha asked with wide eyes.“No, it was an accident..” Sarah responded before realizing what Samantha had said.Samantha, knowing her mother as she did, knew that there was no way her mother would have been this careless with her priceless phone.“What did you just say?” Morrison asked Samantha in shock.Samantha tried to deny her statement but it was no use as her father had clearly h
“Huh……You also know about that?” Sarah asked in shock.“What? You didn't think I knew because I held my peace about it?”“I'm warning you, Sarah. Stop trying to make an enemy of me or it might not end very well for you! Consider this my last warning, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about,” he warned her before leaving.“Is it my imagination or did this nitwit just insinuate he knew about my plans with Jimmy? Who the hell is this guy and how does he always know what I'm up to?” She wondered.“No, I need a new mobile phone!” She rushed into the bathroom for a quick shower.***Jimmy was outside the Lopez estate when he spotted Sarah driving out.He quickly followed her until they got to a somewhat lonely street before he gave her a signal with his car lights and car horn.“Were you following me?” Sarah asked, looking out the window as if sensing that an invisible force was watching her.“Of Course not! I followed that good-for-nothing to your home and was waiting for him outside befo
Samantha quickly answered the call. From the sound of the conversation, Ethan could tell that it was more of a monologue than a dialogue. “It must be that guy again,” Ethan spoke under his breath so no one could hear him.The call soon ended and Samantha turned to both Loretta and Sarah's questioning gaze, “I heard virtually all the big shots in Stanberry will be gathering at the Coliseum today to introduce a very special person. So since a friend of mine was privileged to work there, I convinced him to help me get in!” She exclaimed joyfully.“And is that friend the one that just called?” Ethan furrowed his brows.Samantha rolled her eyes at him without responding.But her attitude already told Ethan what he needed to hear.Unknown to both Loretta and her sister, Ethan was the special guest that was going to be introduced today.Sarah didn't think too much about Samantha going to the Coliseum since Loretta was also going to be there.She simply rode her Porsche to the front of the ma
“Hey buddy, you are in our way!” Ethan's casual tone surprised the Viper as most other people froze or even dropped dead at the sight of him.“What did you just call me?” The Viper asked, frowning.“Buddy? Is anything the problem?”The Viper furrowed his brows, observing Ethan from head to toe.“When you are done admiring me, can you move away so we can leave!” Ethan's patience was fast wearing thin.Everyone in the restaurant avoided the Viper's gaze, except Ethan.“You don't seem to be scared of me?”“Do you want to die?” The Viper tried putting some fear in Ethan but he remained unmoved.“Buddy, I really don't want to hurt you. You seem like a peace-loving guy, so why not move away and all three of us can be on our way.”“Haha…..you are indeed a funny one. I'm going to enjoy putting out your misery, after all that's what I was paid to do.The Viper took a few steps back before yelling, “The first man to send this poor thing to the world beyond, gets 15 grand on the spot!” The Viper
“Hey, you are late! I've been waiting for you!” The strange man took her hands roughly, causing Samantha to wince in pain.“Hey, champ. Let go of the lady, you are hurting her!” Ethan warned the strange man.Jethro frowned at Ethan, “And who might you be? Her guardian angel?”“Hey, scumbag, that's my sister! Let her go this minute or…”“Or what….huh”“Your sister and I have a special arrangement. What, she didn't tell you? Why do you think she is here then?” He laughed scornfully.“It would be a shame to watch you lose that arm!” Ethan whispered into Jethro's ear.The dark look Jethro saw in Ethan's eyes scared him so much that he instantly released Samantha and walked away.“Why did you do that?” Samantha asked, peeping in the direction that Jethro had taken.“Hey, whatever is going on, now would be a good time to spill!” Ethan had always sensed that Samantha was in some kind of trouble but he never got the chance to find out.“Nothing is going on okay.” She insisted.“Sam, you know
