 She tried to regain her words but she had already noticed it.  

She tried as much as she could to keep her stare away from the beautiful lady but then it was difficult for her as her eyes kept on going backwards.

"So what are you guys doing here?" Beauty was the first person to inquire.

"Are you here to get him a new set of clothes ma'am?" She shot a stare at him.

Meanwhile Marcel continued to stare at her until she decided to speak back to him..

"Mr. Can I know your name?" Her eyes were farrowed but he was already filled with so many smiles that he didn't even notice.

He straightened up, fixing the collars of his shift with a broad grin on his face

"What the heck are you trying to do?" Beauty frowned at her and was about to stop Marcel but he had already given out his name.

"I'm Marcel, I'm a CEO, compared to.." He paused since he already knew that she knew who he was talking to.

"Do you know that it is rather awkward to stare at a lady that way? Coupled with the fact that you already have one beside you?" He was taken aback by the words that she just spat out from her mouth.

She knew that Beauty was going to be angry so she had to think of the perfect answer to give to him so as not to cause any trouble.

"I was just thinking how this fellow here even got to know you, it's strange. And please don't get the wrong message."

"I am also engaged and my lady is the most beautiful girl that I have ever met in all my life." He pulled Beauty over to himself and kissed him on her neck.

The blush on her face was vivid.

"So where are you guys heading to? Maybe we are going the same way?" Beauty inquired rather to humiliate Ethan before a supposed Lover.

"Let's see how he proves himself before her. Or they might even break up." She thought in her head.

Ethan hesitated for a while, not wanting to have anything to do with them but before he got to answer the question, Victoria already spoke up.

"We are going to get a house if possible an estate. What about you guys."

At this point, Marcel could feel the heat all over him and sweat was already forming at the corner of his face.

If he purchased the house for Beauty as he had told her he would once there is news about the cooperation, he could be close to running bankrupt.

He could feel his heart beating hard against his chest now as though it was going to burst through.

Since that morning, he had tried to give all the signs that were enough to tell her that there was no need for this but she kept on pushing.

"Oh, that's great, We are also heading the same way." Beauty replied.

Immediately she spat out the words from her mouth, Victoria turned over to Ethan to get his consent before going further on the issue.

"Will that be okay with you sir?" She inquired with a broad smile hovering on her face.

"Hmmm." He mumbled not saying anything specific.

"I want to talk to you for a moment." He replied. "And not here." His eyes swayed away to where Beauty was standing and returned to her.

She nodded her head and gestured to a space at the far end.

"We will be back in a few minutes." She noted and sped away with him.

When they finally got there, she knew that she had to apologize to her young master immediately.

"I am sorry, Young Master. You have every right to punish me." She said almost in a whisper so that the others were not going to hear a word about what they were saying.

"What are you doing?" He could not help but imagine.

"I know at first it was because of me but from the point that you are going, Don't you think that you are taking it too personally now?" The frown that was hanging on her face was vivid.

"I am sorry about that young master." Her head was bowed and she would not dare to look up at him now that he was really angry.

"It's just that, I could not bear when I read about what you had passed through in the hands of the Lady and I had always wanted to meet Mer myself."

He thought about it but what had been done had been done.

"So you are intending to take revenge on my sake?" His eyes were farrowed at her and the only thing that she could do was nod her head.

A slight sigh escaped from his lips almost immediately. And there was no way that he could pull away. Not when she had already informed her.

"I think that it is high time that we return to them."

They Walked back to Marcel and Beauty a few moments later.

"You finally taught him how not to disgrace himself?" She chuckled.

"I think that you should worry more about your show-off lover. And yes, we can get going." She replied to her.

While they continued to walk, something really strange happened. A convoy of cars stormed right into the place forming a circle around them.

Soon, a group of classic young men stepped down from the car and Beauty's face disappeared from worry and melted into a smile.

"You didn't have to surprise me this much. No wonder you were acting the way you did this morning." A broad smile was hanging on her face.

But on the other hand, Marcel was confused because he did know a single thing about what was going on but he decided to keep shut and take the credit for it 

Beauty turned over to Ethan with a smile hanging on her face.

"Can you ever do this for your lady?" She inquired.

"Or are you just way too broke?" She yelled out the Words so that everyone would hear it.

The men walked closer towards them and bowed slightly. 

At this point, Marcel could feel his heart pounding hard against his chest and he was already gasping for breath.

Soon, the men knelt before them and Beauty's face had gone pink.

"Young master." They said,

Beauty's joy knew no bond especially now that Ethan was around so he would watch the display of her fiance's new heights.

"Awww."

"I didn't know that you had become a young master already." She smiled.

She turned over to the men and what a gesture of her hands, she said. "You may rise."

"It took a lot." She kept on running her mouth without even noticing the frown that was on their faces.

But before she could even finish her statement, something stopped her.

She heard one of them hissing, snapping her off from her Words.

"And who is talking to you?" One of them frowned to her utmost surprise.

"This dog that is standing before you can never be our young master." He returned

Victoria separated a little and there was now a line between them.

They turned around towards Ethan and bowed even more 

"Young Master." They said again.

"Young master?" Beauty and Marcel said at seemingly time, getting more confused than Theo had ever been all their lives.

    Marcel and Beauty continued to stare at them confused as they tried to comprehend what was going on in their head. "This certainly can't be true right?" Beauty thought in her head. Is her ex turning out to be a young master? It was even possible. "It has to be a mistake right? They might have mistaken him for someone else right?" The Words flew out of her mouth. Meanwhile, Ethan already knew that his grandfather had sent them but he didn't know exactly why. He was confused for a while and didn't know what to do as he did want them to know anything about being an heir. Thoughts Flowed through his mind from hundreds to thousands but out of all these thoughts, a solution was still not found. He drew a really deep breath, deeper than he had ever drawn all his eyes. Then he felt a delicate hand torching the side of his pants and looking down, he noticed that it was Victoria. Even though she did not spit out a single word from his mouth, the gesture seemed to say that he could help.

The sales agent added...With the sound of that, his initial anger soon melted into stalk amazement."Was this scammer thinking that they were fools?" Though he had dealt with a lot of them, he could not wait to see this scammer with so much audacity.His eyes skimmed around towards Ethan almost immediately and his eyes farrowed into a smile."And I thought scammers at least have some sense of decency at least to fool their counterparts. You amaze me.""At least you have some sense than the piece of thrash that you employed here."And from the way that he just spoke to him, he could tell that whoever Ethan was, he was really outspoke

But then, it was still the same."Sir, you can't allow him to fool you this badly. I don't know where he learned that trick from but he is certainly a fraud?""And what do you suggest now?"

He was one step away from bringing Ethan down and he was very excited. He took out his phone and called Marcel.“Hello, where are you?“I am resting at my loudspeaker.“Meet me at the bar.“At the bar?
