“I know what's going through your mind but you are wrong.” Ethan tried to explain but Loretta walked out in anger.Ethan went after her, “Loretta, listen to me. Your sister was in trouble and I went to help. She only hugged me to say thank you but made me promise not to say anything to any of you guys. That's what happened!”“I reported the matter to the police department and the men are behind bars, you can call to find out.”Loretta listened and instantly became calm.“So how did you know she was in danger?”“I had a few guys in the area and they called me when they noticed Samantha being carried by some men,” he had to come up with an explanation.Loretta felt convinced after hearing Ethan's explanation.“So that means someone has been watching you? She finally asked.“Yes and I have my suspicions on who is responsible!”***Jimmy excitedly waited for the result of the fire he had just lit.Since he saw a good opportunity to set Ethan up, he wasted no time in using it.He figured t

Jimmy heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the mobsters behind Ethan.“What took you guys so long?” He asked furiously.“Any second now and I would have been dead meat!”“You are still not off the hook yet!” Ethan squeezed one of his fingers, snapping it instantly.Jimmy yelled in pain.“You fools! Are you going to just stand there and watch him torture me!”One of the mobsters shot Ethan a kick that he easily blocked with his hand.Ethan responded with a counter move that sent the mobster into a nearby dumpster.Suddenly the leader of the mobsters signaled to the rest of his men to stop.“I apologize young master, I didn't know it was you,” the leader went on his knees, begging Ethan.The other mobsters looked at each other and wondered why their leader was kneeling down before Ethan.“How is it that you recognized me?” Ethan asked, frowning.The Gambino mobsters do a lot of collaborative work with the black axe, so I recognized your ring.“Ah..I see.”“Why are you backing up this scu

An hour later Tim brought his findings about Jethro.Ethan studied the report before him with keen interest.“How accurate is this, Tim?” Ethan asked with raised brows.“Very accurate boss.” Tim assured him.“Okay, thank you, Tim.”“How can Samantha be rolling with the likes of this guy?” He wondered.Jethro had been arrested for countless crimes including, theft, kidnap, assault and murder.The guy was the worst kind of criminal and yet Samantha claimed they were friends.Ethan picked up his phone,“Tim, I want you to find out the connection between Samantha and Jethro.”After dropping the call, he cleared his table and left for Loretta’s office.Loretta was sketching the design for the new prototype when Ethan walked in.“Oh, I see you are working on the new device already!”“Yeah, since the first prototype you suggested has been so successful, I decided to take the second one very seriously,” she grinned.Ethan chuckled, “I'm glad you are taking it very seriously. I was heading out

Justin became afraid.“Hear what?” The other man asked him.“Pfft…”“Did you hear it again?” Justin asked, looking around.“No, I didn't hear anything. Now quit fooling around and get back to work.”There was another loud sound and this time around they both heard it.“I think I heard it this time, why don't I keep watch, while you go check it out.” The other man suggested.Justin frowned but summoned courage and went to look around.There was another loud sound followed by a scream.“Justin?” The other man called out but he got no reply.“What's going on here?” He yelled.He got up to go look around and that was when Ethan and Zack revealed themselves.“Who the hell are you guys?”Ethan didn't respond but rushed at him with an uppercut, incapacitating him instantly.Ethan rushed over to release Loretta while Zach tied up the two men.Ethan consoled her with a hug and led her to the Maserati.“Do you have any idea who they are?” Ethan asked.Loretta swallowed hard before responding, “

Since Ethan noticed that Justin was scared of the dark, he decided to leave him in an abandoned building for a few nights to make him more cooperative when he came to question him.After about four days, Justin couldn't take it anymore.“I'll tell you…please I'll tell you anything you want!” He yelled on the fourth day.“Okay, where is Meg?”“She's in Stanberry, I can give you her exact location if you show me a map.”“All right. I need more details of her business dealings!” He asked, menacingly.***Jay had been to his father's office several times in the past two weeks but Marcus Walters wasn't interested in seeing his eldest son.“Dad, isn't it time you buried the hatchet with Jay? He is still my brother and your son!”Marcus stared at his younger son, his resolve unchanging, “You brother abandoned his responsibilities because of a woman! How am I supposed to trust him again after that kind of betrayal?”“I know Dad, but please give him another shot. Maybe a test or something, ple

Ethan and Loretta remained on the floor, neither of them moving as they stared into each other's eyes.Ethan wished they could both remain like this but the main door suddenly swung open as the chef walked in.She froze on the spot the moment she saw Loretta lying on top of Ethan.“I'm sorry, I didn't know,” she felt a little embarrassed and tried to leave.“It's all right.” Ethan gestured at her to remain as Loretta stood up.He was going to tell her to forget about dinner but Loretta gave him a sign, “Let me know once dinner is ready!” He instructed her before leaving.Laila giggled after they left.“They look cute together but I don't think anything is going on between them,” she muttered as she began to prepare some French toast.***Sarah almost screamed her lungs out after Ethan and Loretta left.She cursed Jimmy under her breath for exposing her.

Immediately Ethan settled down in his office, he decided to go through his mail.He smiled as soon as he saw his latest mail.They were both reports from Tim about Jethro and Meg Ozias.Ethan decided he would deal with Meg first. He had expected her to pull another stunt but the men from the black axe that he had sent to keep tabs on her told him that she hadn't made any moves yet.He quickly opened the report on her and furrowed his brows as he did so.“So that's what's being keeping you busy,” he gritted his teeth.“Watch me make my next move,” he whispered to himself as he picked up his phone.August Tage suddenly froze as he saw Ethan's call, “Young master, how may I be of service,” he asked nervously.“Relax, soldier, you sound tense.” Ethan could tell that he was nervous.Mr. Tage tried to relax, “Okay boss!”“Good! I want you to put together 80 million dollars. I have a task for you. Don't worry, you will get your money back.”Mr. Tage didn't even flinch at the sound of the amo
