Its influence extended to governments, financial markets, and global business ventures, and its leaders were known for their shrewdness and strategic vision.Inside the conference room, the atmosphere was tense. The room was adorned with exquisite furnishings and paintings, but the executives were too preoccupied to appreciate the luxury. Sara Willow, the chairperson and matriarch of the Willow family, sat at the head of the table, exuding an air of authority.The executives, in their finely tailored suits and stern expressions, appeared agitated by Sara's recent decision. They were not pleased that she had chose
The Callous CEO Chapter 186 The Willows
Inside the conference room, the tension had eased, but the cold atmosphere remained. The executives glanced at each other, unsure of how to proceed after Ethan's bold words during the meeting. But Ethan's focus was on his grandmother, Sara Willow, the formidable chairperson of the company.Sara's calm exterior belied the emotions swirling within her. As she observed Ethan, sitting across from her with a calm expression, she couldn't help but feel a mix of pride and apprehension. She had brought him here to prove himself, but she also yearned for a rekindling of their family bond.Ethan met Sara's gaze, his blue eyes unwavering. He saw the smile on her face, but he remained aloof, as if her presence meant nothing to him. Deep down, he knew he had missed his grandmother, but he had learned to suppress such emotions.Sara's assistant, who had been observing the exchange between the two, was perplexed by their behavior. She had expected a warm reunion between the family, but instead

Ethan sat in his office, going through some important documents with his now trusted advisor, Joan. She was praising him for his quick wit and ability to convince the executives, making them believe in his abilities."Mr. Ethan, you handled that meeting like a true leader! I must say, you have an impressive way of getting people to trust in your vision," Joan said, genuinely impressed.Ethan chuckled, "Well, I learned from the best. Your guidance has been invaluable, Joan. I couldn't have done it without you. You know I was surprised when I saw that you could take care of everything this easily. This isn't what you showed me back in Houston”Joan was trying to put on her seductive self bit of a of a stopped when she saw the look on Ethan's face,“Fine I will stop”Just then, the office door opened, and Ethan's assistant walked in. "Mr. Ethan, there's someone here to see you."Ethan assumed it was one of the people he was scheduled to have a meeting with. But as he turned his attent

The next day, Ethan woke up early, his mind already focused on the day ahead. He got dressed in a sharp black suit, the crimson tie matching his scarlet eyes. His appearance exuded confidence and determination, the perfect image of a leader ready to take on any challenge.As he descended the stairs, he noticed something unusual. Sara was already seated at the dining table, having her breakfast. It was a rare sight, as Ethan had never seen her at the table during his stay at the mansion.“This is new," he murmured to himself. Not wanting to make a big deal out of it, Ethan calmly walked to his seat, which was directly opposite Sara. He greeted her with a nod, and they both started eating their breakfast in silence.Butler Charles and Sara's assistant stood nearby, exchanging resigned glances. The tension between the grandmother and the son was noticeable, and it seemed like neither of them had any intention of engaging in conversation.As Ethan sipped his coffee, he could feel Sa

The sleek black car glided through the streets, carrying Adam and Robert back to their mansion. Robert couldn't contain his frustration and began venting his feelings about Ethan."Father, I can't stand Ethan's arrogance. He thinks he can do whatever he wants just because he's got Grandma's backing. It's infuriating," Robert complained, scowling.Adam stared coldly at his son through the rearview mirror, a hint of disappointment in his eyes. "Robert, you need to control your emotions. Have you forgotten where you are? “But his words were just to make him angry as his expressions became very grieve, “ Ethan is a very smart person and he's proven himself to be a quick-witted person, smart. You on the other hand should stop being jealous as it won't get you anywhere.""But Dad, I'm more capable than him! I could handle the company better, why should grandmother give him everything” Robert retorted, his frustration evident.Adam let out a deep sigh. "If you were as smart as you claim

As Sara finished her breakfast, she reminded Ethan about the meeting with the Williams and emphasized its importance. The two of them, accompanied by her assistant, made their way to the large backyard where a private helicopter stood.Assistant: "Are you sure about leaving the Williams matter in Ethan's hands, Chairwoman?"Sara, exuding a calm and cold aura, replied confidently, "This is Ethan's responsibility now. I've entrusted everything to him, and I don't need to worry about anything else."Assistant: "But they are a significant client, Chairwoman. Are you certain this is the right decision?"Sara: "Yes, I am. Ethan has proven himself capable, and I trust his judgment. Besides, it's time he takes on more responsibilities."With that, Sara boarded the helicopter, her assistant following suit. As they took off, she felt a mix of pride and anticipation for Ethan's capabilities.Meanwhile, back at the mansion, Ethan finished his breakfast after a few minutes of Sara's departure. H

Claudia couldn't shake the feeling of unease as she stared at her twin brother, James, who seemed more interested in his phone than addressing her question."Why did you lie?" she asked firmly, determined not to let the matter slide.James looked up from his phone, a smirk playing on his lips. "Lie? What are you talking about, Claudia?"Claudia's expression hardened. She wasn't going to let him evade the question. "Don't play dumb, James. You told me someone from our family's company was spreading rumors about our collaboration with the Willows. But I know you were the one who started those ‘rumors’. What you said holds no truth and you know that ."James sighed, his amusement fading slightly. "Alright, fine. I did it, but it's for the best. We can't trust others completely can we ?”Claudia's eyes narrowed. "Trust has to start somewhere, James. We can't build a successful relationship on lies and deception. What's your real motive for doing all this? Isn't it for his attention “Jame
