Philip was once Ethan's boss. "Oh how much I enjoyed those days..." Philip reminisced quietly. The feeling of being Ethan's superior who kept giving him impossible tasks while banging his girlfriend was the best feeling ever..."Maybe I shouldn't have even let him go in the first place..." Philip muttered with faint regret. "If he was still my slave then all these wouldn't have ever happened."Philip had only let go of Ethan and fired him because Sophia wanted it to be so. If Sophia hadn't demanded for it, Philip would have most definitely continued torturing Philip in the company. That way, he wouldn't have met Mr Clifford who made him assistant CEO and he would have also found it impossible to sue the Waltons because he never would have had the money or the help to do so. Philip could only blame Sophia for this mess. "It's not going to change anything anyway..." Philip muttered. Then he beamed into a faint and cruel grin. "Let me speak to the bastard and order him around. I'm
"Young master, I got some calls from our lawyer this morning." Andrew reported to Ethan. Ethan was seating behind his office table even as his legs were crossed over the table. There was an iPad in his hands that he kept swiping through and an inscrutable expression on his handsome face.Ethan looked up at Andrew. "What did he say?" He asked curiously. "He said the judge is putting a lot of pressure on him so that he can dismiss the case." Andrew replied. A faint smile formed on the corners of Ethan's lips and he shook his head. "That judge is the one Philip is pressuring to get rid of the case." Andrew added. "I thought as much..." Ethan sighed. "You know what to do right?" He asked Andrew. "Leave it to me!" Andrew replied boisterously and left the company. A few minutes later, Ethan's secretary knocked on his door and walked in cautiously."Caitlyn..." Ethan looked up at her curiously. "Is something the matter?" He asked. Caitlyn coyly smiled and adjusted her falling hair to

Ethan stood still. His hands crossed behind him and his figure steadfast and unmoving. He gazed at Philip with indifference in bright golden eyes.He had already expected Philip to do something crazy so Ethan wasn't shocked by the nonsense that was spewing out of Philip's mouth."Why are you not responding? Cat got your tongue?" Philip sneered.Philip was sure that Ethan was inwardly quaking on fear and depression.'You didn't think that I would return from my treatment soon and scatter your plans right?' Philip sneered inwardly.He was assuming that Ethan was taking the opportunity while he was out of the country to cause trouble for the Waltons and most especially Sophia."Or did you not expect to see me so soon?" Philip asked again with a sinister smile. His whole demeanour was like someone who was speaking to his junior and was being benevolent.However, Ethan still didn't say a word. He turned to Caitlyn who was behind him."Where is Mr Clifford?" Ethan asked Caitlyn in a subdued
Mr Clifford's complexion had become very grim."I should fire him?" Mr Clifford asked Philip with an incredulous expression on his face.Philip looked at Ethan and nodded. He looked at Mr Clifford as though he was giving him the best advice in the world."Get rid of him fast enough or you'll regret it." Philip replied as he looked at Ethan disgustedly.Mr Clifford clenched his fists in anger."Mr Carnegie... I am trying my best to give you a modicum of respect right now. But you are going too far!""Too far? This is just friendly advice...""What is it that you want?" Mr Clifford roared with a loud voice.Philip was a bit flustered at Mr Clifford's outburst. Then he chuckled and turned to Ethan."It's simple really... Get this bastard to withdraw the case he filed against the Waltons." Philip said with a piercing glare.Mr Clifford turned to glance at Ethan who shook his head subtly."You must be out of your mind, Mr Carnegie." Clifford said in a subdued tone as though he was stating
"Why did you do that?" Sophia asked with a weak voice.Their hot session had just ended and Philip was already up from the bed and dressing up.Seeing his lack of response Sophia's face scrunched up in annoyance. "Couldn't you have gone a little gentler at least?" She grumbled.Philip didn't even act as though he heard her but instead began walking out of the room with an annoyed expression.Sophia became increasingly annoyed and impatient."Is this because of Ethan?" Sophia asked through gritted teeth.Philip paused just as he was about to push the door open and turned around slowly. His expression was fierce like he was ready to murder Sophia for mentioning Ethan's name."What do you mean?" Philip asked with a low but dangerous tone.However, Sophia was also boiling hot so she refused to back down."The lawsuit that Ethan filed against me and my family... Don't tell me you couldn't do anything about it?" Sophia asked. "Did he do anything?"Sophia was already having a hunch. The way
