Emiliano was so disturbed by the news that he almost had a heart attack.

He had to quietly drop into the nearest sofa to calm himself down.

If he can't get a cooperation, perhaps his only option was to accept the deal from the Russians.

He placed a to Randall.

“Hey, Randall! Quick question! Is the Russian deal still on the table? Okay, I accept!”

Martha was just returning from the bedroom when she overheard Emiliano's call.

“I thought you didn't want to do business with the Russians?” She asked, looking confused.

“It's either that or we refund Mr. Chance's 800 million dollars!”

Andrew still threw tantrums every now and then but his hand was getting better now.

He could now take a few swings with it.

His girlfriend was happy with the speed of his recovery.

She still kept on coming despite Andrew's repulsive behavior.

She was from a middle-class family and everyone on her street envied her because she was the girlfriend of Andrew.

Can you tell your girl here to excuse us?”Andrew gestured at his girlfriend and she went upstairs.“So what's up?”“I need your help. I need a marketable product that is yet to be released.” He whispered, not trusting the nosey maids in the house.“Oh, I see…things like that have a special marketplace but they don't come cheap.”“I know and I'm ready to pay!”

    “What?” His face turned red instantly.“How can they just release it right after I purchased it?” He asked, tears forming at the corner of his eyes.Andrew couldn't believe it as well.It looked like they had been tricked of 5 million dollars.Jay was furious. His father had released the money to him so he could come up with something for the family business but now he lost all the money.“Is there anyway we can trace them?” Jay asked, almost in tears.“No!” Andrew shook his head. “There isn't. I'm sorry.”“Damn those people. They did this! I know they did!” Jay cursed.***The sudden release of a new product into the market by Lopez Conglomerate, took the entire Stanberry by storm.In only a few hours, Lopez Conglomerate had no less than 8 major orders from different security agencies.Even Ian called to congratulate the duo.Sarah on the other hand was shocked to hear the news.It was as if Ethan always did the right things at the right time.Benchmark technologies, the company she

    Sarah was frightened, “How did they find me?”She looked through her phone but didn’t know who to call.Suddenly another message dropped.They didn’t just want their money back, they wanted an extra 15 million dollars.Cold sweat formed across her face despite the chill air-conditioner blowinin in the room.She knew she didn’t have up to that in her bank account, so she didn’t bother checking.She quickly checked the secret account she opened under Samantha.But she got an error message when she tried to access it.Her mind quickly drifted to Ethan, and she fumed.“What the hell am I going to do now?” she wondered.The following morning Ethan woke up to find Loretta and Samantha in the living room chatting.“Hey girls” he greeted.“How are you feeling?” He asked Samantha.I’m a lot better, she smiled.Will you like to come with us to the office? He asked her.Yes, I will. I don’t think I want to be alone right now.Okay, get dressed then.Jay didn’t know how to break the news to his f

    The location Loretta gave Ethan turned out to be Benchmark technologies.“Why would anyone from benchmark technologies opt to threaten Sarah for no reason?” It made no sense to Ethan.Entering inside, Ethan realized his chances of finding whoever the person is to be zero as everyone in the building had a computer in front of them.An idea came to Ethan.He called the user’s social media handle and since he had exceptional senses, he heard the sound clearly from where he stood. So he took note of the computer that had made the sound and calmly walked up to the person operating it without spooking him.“Hello!” Ethan greeted him.“Hello! Do I know you?” Ethan sat down beside him, “I want to know why you are threatening this woman!”He showed him Sarah's picture and his reaction confirmed that he recognized her.“Who are you? You don't scare me! I'll call the gua….” Ethan knocked him out so fast that no one even noticed it.***“Hey! Wake up!” Ethan yelled.“You are Eddie right?”The ma

    Mark held Ethan's handkerchief in his hands and watched a dog stop to urinate before it ran off.There was a mischievous look in Mark's face that made what he was about to do very obvious.“I wouldn't do that if I were you!” Loretta warned him.But Mark's muscular physique fueled his stupidity and he dropped the handkerchief in his hands in the dog's urine.“Oh, my bad! Did I do that?But it doesn't matter anyway, I'm sure you smell just as bad!”It was as though a light switch was flipped within Ethan as he ripped Marks shirt into shred and wiped his face with it.Mark's face turned dark instantly.At first the shock of what Ethan had just done kept him transfixed but he quickly shrugged it off and attacked Ethan.“That was a two thousand dollar shirt you fool! You are dead mea..”His voice instantly trailed off as Ethan's deadly thrust to the throat landed him on the ground in a second.Trevor shook with fear after seeing what Ethan had done to Mark.He tried to run but Ethan's shar

    “What the hell are you two doing?” Mark yelled at Wendy and Trevor when he saw them bending down to scrub the toilet. Trevor was almost weeping when Mark so him. “That punk made us wash all the toilets while he went into the auditorium with those two stupid ladies,” Trevor cursed. “Yeah, he even paid some idiot to come in every couple of minutes to see how far we've gone. Look at hair and even my nails…they reek! I have never been this humiliated in my entire life!” Wendy cried out in frustration. Mark gritted his teeth, “So that fool thinks he can humiliate us this way and get away with it! If that's what he thinks then he needs to have his head examined!” “You guys should just wait here, I'll be back!” Without saying anything else, he raced off. *** Henry dropped his mobile device with a wide smile on his face.

    “Bro, who did you say this jackass is again?” Jack asked, eyeing Ethan disdainfully.“He's the punk we are about to use as a punching bag!” Jacob responded.“Mark, call your friends out!”Mark quickly dialed Trevor's number and this time he picked up.“Hey Trevor, I'm back with some guys from the gym. We are taking care of everything. You and Wendy can come out now!”Ethan rolled his eyes, “Oh, I almost forgot about those two in there. They are probably done by now, so I'll let them off. I'll also let your goons off as well if you guys turn and leave right now!”“I'm sure you heard him, this doesn't have to end messy. Leave now, in your own interest. Remember I warned you before?” Loretta didn't see the need for any more fighting.She had been around Ethan long enough to know his capability. And despite how terrifying the men standing before her were, they were still nothing compared to Ethan.“Do you think these guys are new kids on the block? They are pro wrestlers. Only one of them

He had obviously forgotten about all the hateful things that Ariella and Jay had told him.Ethan couldn't help scooping him in his arms. He didn't know how much he had missed Jake until now. Even though he turned out not to be his child, he still cared about him either way.“Baby, look over there! It's that good for nothing again and he's with Jake!
