The act that he just put up made him remember his past. Deceitful and manipulative people who thought that they could use people as much as they wanted to and thought that they were still loyal pissed him off so much.
His teeth gnashed against each other as the image that stood before him was replaced by that of the betrayer.
"But sir." Mr. Austin was about to say but he would not allow him to spit out a single word from his mouth.
"One more lie from you and I am not only going to make sure that you leave this company but you will leave this city for lying to me." He said but he decided to pretend as though he knew nothing about what Ethan was saying.
"I don't understand sir. What has to be done to get you angry?" The words on his lips shook.
"You want to Know don't you?" He inquired and the only thing that he could do was nod his head.
"Yes sir. And Also make it up to you." He replied.
Ethan nodded his head, a dark smile hovered on his lips as he loved the game that the security officer was playing With him.
"Sure." He said, Turning over to Mr. Blakes.
"Get me the head security." He noted as Mr. Austin fell to his knees to apologize but Ethan had enough of the apologizes already.
"Don't worry. I just want them to do something urgent for me."
Mr. Blake walked away and returned a few minutes later with a security officer who was finely dressed up in his uniform.
"Good day, sir." The security officer greeted with a slight bow, not knowing who Ethan was in the first place.
"So I am Ethan Nathan Geftan." He announced his identity once again.
Immediately after he said this, Mr. Blakes nodded, trying as hard as he could to avoid any more misunderstanding and the eyes of the security officer brightened.
"I am sorry sir for not greeting you properly."
"Don't worry. Human greeting is enough for me already. Unlike." Mr. Austin bowed his head in shame.
"So for what I wanted to do for me. This man is here. I want to take him away and file a case against him for dumping this company." He announced.
"Okay, sir." The security officer replied and Austin shuddered.
"But sir." He could hardly make out his words as the security officer Walked over to him and held him tightly by his hands.
"The Geftan group knows everything that goes on with the city and even if you assumed wiseness which was only stupidity was accused at first, I can no longer take it."
"If he says anything else, I am going to hold you responsible for it." Ethan turned over to the security officer who nodded his head almost immediately with so much Reverse.
His Hands gripped the mouth of Mr. Austin who tried hard to break free from his grip but his hold was too strong to break away from him
He turned over to Mr. Blakes immediately and shot a weird stare at him.
"I'm sorry about that." He Apologized to Ethan once again.
"It's okay. It's not your fault. But next time, make sure that you mind the people that you employ." He returned to him and he nodded his head.
A word rang in Ethan's head and something out of the blue seemed to strike him. Something that he was missing out on.
"You called me CEO a few moments ago. What was that supposed to mean?" He inquired.
"You don't know about it?" He inquired starting a weird look at Ethan.
"Your grandfather already transferred half of the property that he owes to your name already. And that is thirty percent of the companies in the whole of the city. And this is one of them."
"HW told me to assist you know everything. And the tech team already listed your name in the system."
Ethan's eyes brightened. He knew that his grandfather was rich but never knew that he owed sixty percent of the city's wealth.
He brought out his phone from his pocket and searched for his name and network.
"Three hundred billion dollars." It read, just beneath his grandfather making him the second richest man in the city.
His cell phone fell off from his hands as the sequence of events reflected in his head and he did not even realize that he was already gasping for breath.
"Are okay Sir. Ethan." Blake quickly picked his phone out of his pocket and handed it back to him.
"Yes, I am fine." Regaining his posture.
Thinking about the days when he was nothing other than a nobody. Now he was going to make the best out of it.
"Talking about my grandfather, I need to see him. Why was I unable to come?" Ethan Inquired staring right into the eyes of Mr. Blakes.
"Yeah, he told me that once we are done here. I should bring you to him. There is something important that you need to know about." He replied.
His voice sounded somehow off at the moment.
"Could it be that something was wrong?" He thought in his head.
"Can I get you anything, sir? The company's chef makes the best coffee." He replied as a glamorous smile appeared on his face after what seemed to be forever.
"No! I don't think that there would be any need for that. Just take me through what I need to see and take me to my grandfather." He replied.
Mr. Blakes was a little bit disappointed because that was one of the few times that he would get to see such an important personality again but he tried to push forward a smile.
He helped Ethan who was a fast learner and had knowledge about the business world already to go through everything that he needed to know and finally, he was done.
"That would be all sir. Thanks.."
"Stop, I should be the one appreciating you." Ethan stoppedH him.
His rough life had given him a sense of right judgment towards other people no matter how lowly they were.
"Now I think it's time for me to go and see my granddad right?"
"Yeah." Mr. Blakes hesitated.
"But there is a little problem." He added.
His eyebrows furrowed staring right into his eyes as random thoughts ran through his mind."What could that even be?" He thought in his head.Without spitting out a single word from his mouth, he waited patiently for Mr. Blakes to state what was wrong but he didn't seem to be ready to say that any time soon."And that would be?" He finally had to break the overbearing silence in the room."Your grandfather told me to inform you that your father is not in good condition." He noted.He was taken aback by the words and didn't want anything to happen to the closest relative that he just meant.Right from the point where he could not see him, he knew already that something was wrong."We should get going in that case." He turned around towards Mr. BlakeHe was led to the car park by Mr. Blake and they got into a white Porsche.His heart raced fast as random thoughts ran through his mind and when he could no longer take it, he Paced out through the window just to view the city and get his m
Meanwhile, Marcel's face was sweaty as he drove in his car through the feet.For reasons that he could not know, his feet were shivering so badly and his hands ached on the starry.Right from the very first day that he had known Mr. Blakes, he had never seen him so angry before."What do you think might have been wrong?" The seat that sat beside him all those while in silence finally broke the silence."I am supposed to know." He could not help but transfer the same energy that he had been given by Mr. Blakes.He could feel his heart beating hard against his chest as though it was going to burst through as the thoughts about what happened crossed his mind.The events before that could not help but scream through and only one name surfaced in his head.Ethan.His Hands clenched tightly until it made a cracking sound and the expression on his face deepened.His sister could not help but notice the quick change in his countenance and had to ask what was wrong.Is anything the matter?" He
"That night?" The words came back out in form of a stutter and his grandfather smiled slightly."Of course, you got into a misunderstanding with someone."For what I needed to tell you, you will need to get a suitor soon enough."Immediately he spat out the words from his mouth, he coughed almost immediately.His heart was racing fast. He did not ever think that he would want a relationship with anyone."Do you intend to live with me or get a house for yourself?" He inquired, snapping him off from his thoughts and switching off the topic swiftly.He thought about it for a while. He would have loved to live with his grandfather but he seemed to be a busy man and would not want to disturb him that much.It was going to be a really difficult thing for him to do. His head ran through different thoughts and he finally stopped on a decision."I think that I should get a place grandfather." He added."Just as I thought." His grandfather stared at him for a while and returned his hands to hi
Marcel was captured by the Beautiful Lady and would have worked if not for the scumbag that was standing right beside her.Meanwhile, Beauty could not find a place in her head to believe that he had moved on so quickly and her eyes farrowed, trying to process things in her head.It just couldn't be possible."I can see that you have gotten a new job haven't you?" She shot a stare at the lady who was standing right beside him.They could not recognize who she was but from the looks of things, they could tell that she was wealthy."I don't think that she realized what she has done to herself." Marcel chuckled."From the looks of things ma'am, I can tell that you have enough potential to get someone better than him.""Excuse you?" Her eyes farrowed and she clenched her fist. "I didn't get what it is that you are trying to say." She added, still staring right into their eyes."Okay. I guess that it's not long that the both of you meant but you just need to Know. This fool here is going to
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 alrea
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.
"Is that so, let's see how you are going to keep your job in that case." He frowned.He felt his pocket and could still feel the card there. Going over to the other end of the vast hall, he switched on a monitor, and a building was displayed on it with a price tag.His feet swayed over to the monitor as his hands gestured towards it."This is a four-bedroom apartment at a strategic location." His deep voice sped throughout the hall, hitting the core of their ears."Do you like it?" Marcel turned towards Beauty and inquired hoping that she was going to be considerate and say yes since it was somehow cheaper.But instead, she shook her head side by side to his disappointment."I think they would have more beautiful ones. And the color, I don't like it." She noted.She gestured towards the sales agent and he was eager to listen to her due to the first expression that she had given to him."I want a large duplex. White with a fine touch of gold. Do you think that you can get me something
The face of the manager twisted into a thick frown immediately. If there was anything that he hated most, it was fraudsters.They had the potential to crumble a business empire to its lowest. He had seen it happen before and apart from that, he has also dealt with a lot of them."And he is even asking for the multi-million dollar estates to choose from." 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
