Reginald stood in his office, right next to the floor-to-roof window behind his desk.It provided him with a rare view of the city below, allowing him to bask in the glorious sights.As he sipped wine from the glass cup in his hand, he counted the time until he would one day reign over it all.He wasn't one to consider politics so his eyes were set on becoming king of the business world, a man that could make companies move with a simple word.Ethan had been very useful in covering his tracks which enabled him to amass wealth unlike any other.But knowing that not every company would be willing to bend to his will, he had to do something about it.The first company he'd attempted to claim was Savour but the previous owner, Francis Peterson, was quite stubborn and had even threatened to out him for his wrongdoings.Unfortunately, Reginald had no choice but to end the poor soul.Others thought Francis had died from a heart attack but only Reginald knew the real reason the poor man died

Langdon froze as he stared pensively at Ethan.The shutdown of the Savour branch had been done illegally and without the knowledge of his boss.If Ethan were to go snooping around, his job would be at risk for sure.Gritting his teeth, he remarked. “You'd best not do anything you won't regret.“I could say the same thing to you. So I'll give you two options, you either reopen my restaurant, or else you can wait to receive a call from your boss.”“You can't do shit!” Ethan chuckled. “Try me. I'll give you till 6 pm, Mr. Langdon, don't think the bastard that got you up to this would help you when the going gets tough.”Langdon froze yet again as he realized that Ethan was no fool.He was well aware the lockdown was done because of a hidden figure.Judging from the expression he had, he may have an idea of who the figure was, the knowledge that Langdon wasn't privy to because he had been connected via an agent.Clicking his tongue, Langdon got into his car and drove back into the bureau

Ethan stared calmly at Langdon who was smirking wickedly.Even now, the bastard didn't plan to do the right thing and instead wanted to make a profit.Ethan couldn't help but wonder just how many have already been forced to meet his conditions to save their businesses from being destroyed.To think that the corruption ran so deep.It was rather unsettling.“So what do you say?... I don't have all day.” Langdon remarked, breaking Ethan's train of thought.“I disagree.” Ethan casually remarked causing Langdon's expression to shift.“Fine then, 2.5 million. I won't go lower than that, understood?”“I said no.” Langdon sneered. “You think your report will do anything?... Fine then, go ahead and file it but I'll tell you this, I'm not the only corrupt officer in the bureau. There are others like me so all it would take would be some cash and a bit of favors to ensure that your company is not reopened and you know the best part. You will be blacklisted to ensure that you won't be able to e

“Your ticket, please.” The security guard remarked catching Ethan off guard.He glanced at Anna who remarked. “I had no idea you needed an invitation.”Ethan shook his head before turning to face the guard, about to speak when someone interrupted.“It's not about knowing, my sweetheart, only those with prestige and fake would be handed an invite for such an occasion. Of course, one could purchase a ticket but that would merely be the basic ticket that allowed one entry into the auction. The VIP ticket however allows one access to so much more.”Both Ethan and Anna turned to find an arrogant looking approaching with two guards.Tempted to comment on his ridiculous attire, Anna decided to let it be, simply responding with a thank you.However, the man didn't seem satisfied with that as he remarked. “It's my pleasure. My name is Robert Jordan, son of the Jordan family. I'm sure you've heard of us.”“The Jordan family involved in stock investments and brokerage?”“Indeed, that exact one.

Meanwhile, Ethan despite being the same height as Robert, seemed to tower over him as they stood at an arm's length from each other. Flustered by Ethan's sudden change, Robert was unable to recover immediately as he couldn't help but wonder what gave this masked man the audacity to confront him like this.He was Robert Jordan for fucks sake!... Men begged to be in the same space with him, yet this bastard.Robert felt his ego crack causing him to erupt in fury.“What?... Do you think you have the right to speak that way with me?... I am Robert Jordan!... Whatever I want, I get, no one can stop me no matter what they say.”“Is that so?”“Of course!... You should feel privileged that your woman is attractive to me. You should grovel at my feet and beg me to have her. After all, you won't be able to take care of her like I would.”Ethan chuckled. “Alright, let's see about that.”Turning to face the guard, Ethan inquired. “Is it possible to purchase a VIP space for the auction?”The guar

Sir Kingsley Cohen, owner of NeoCo, was seated in a VIP suite with his son seated beside him.He hadn't come to participate in the auction but was interested in seeing what his son was capable of.As his son, Mark Cohen was to be the heir to NeoCo, he was eager to see just what the boy was capable of giving a stage such as this one.Just then, his assistant came up to him and whispered in his ear, causing his expression to shift.“Are you serious?” Kingsley inquired, pleasantly surprised by the news his assistant had shared.His gaze immediately shifted toward the deluxe chamber.“What's wrong, father?” Mark inquired upon noticing his father's gaze.“Nothing. It would seem that a powerhouse has decided to join the proceedings of the evening. I am quite interested in finding out their reason for being here.”Gesturing for his assistant to approach, Kingsley whispered in her ears with the lady nodding after which she took her leave.***Ethan and Anna thoroughly enjoyed the Royal treatm

The Cohens, while being business moguls in real estate, also had dealings with criminals as it ensured that they got whatever they wanted at a reduced price.If not that the mortgage bank that owned the deed to Gamer Boy was related to TnC Holdings which was owned by the powerful Goldberg family, they would have already approached the bank to bully the papers out of their hands.However, since the papers no longer had the protection of the Goldberg family, they had no reason to fear some no-name man with too much money.Kingsley even had the dastardly thought to force the man into a partnership with him.That way, he wouldn't have to waste too much money on the proposed theme park Mark wished to build.“May we sit?” Kingsley inquired.Ethan nodded. “Sure.”With the Cohens seated, Kingsley remarked. “We also planned to purchase the deed to the Gamer Boy property.”“Quite unfortunate.” Ethan casually remarked. “If you wanted, you should have kept on bidding.”“Haha, of course, but I tho

“Dad, how could you just let them go like that?” Mark inquired, feeling wronged.“Did you expect me to make a fuss in a place owned by those arrogant Goldbergs?”“But then…”“Just shut up. Do you think I don't have something planned?”“I'm sorry, father.”“Just watch. By tomorrow morning, we'll have the papers to that property, that I can assure you.” Kingsley remarked, a sinister smile at the corners of her lips.***Ethan drove maniacally as he sought to get rid of the people failing him.It helped that it was late at night so the road was mostly free.But because of that, his pursuers no longer tried to hide their reason for following him as two men emerged from the windows, wielding guns.“They are going to shoot!” Anna exclaimed in a panicked tone as she immediately put her head down.The next moment, the thugs opened fire, spraying Ethan's car with hot lead.Ethan tried to avoid the guns aimed at him but that proved quite difficult as there was not enough room to maneuver as he
