Unknown to Ethan, James happened to be with Claire at the same restaurant, and as they entered, they couldn't help but notice Ethan sitting with Arva.James was surprised to see Arva with someone as she was known to be cold and unapproachable, but with Ethan, she seemed unusually friendly.James nudged Claire, trying to contain his surprise. "Hey, look over there. Isn't that Arva? And she's actually smiling and engaged in a conversation with someone."Claire glanced over, equally surprised. "You're right! I've never seen her like this before. Who's that guy she's with?"James shrugged, "I have no idea, but they seem pretty comfortable with each other."Curiosity got the better of them, and they decided to sit at a nearby table, pretending not to notice Arva and Ethan.They kept an eye on them, trying to eavesdrop on their conversation.As they pretended to read their menus, they couldn't help but overhear snippets of Arva and Ethan's conversation.Arva's voice sounded different, softe
Ethan walked into his room with a dejected look, his thoughts still swirling around his conversation with his grandmother. Just as he sat down, his phone rang. Glancing at the screen, he saw it was Dan, his ‘dearest’ personal doctor whom he hasn't heard from since he moved from Houston ."Ethan! You won't believe what's going on," Dan exclaimed excitedly as soon as Ethan answered the call.“And to think, I thought you will start acting a little bit professional. Who would have assumed you will still act immature and annoying? Why I'm I not even surprised?” Ethan scolded Dan without giving him face .Dan who is in his lab coat and has yet to leave for the house held his nose in embarrassment and even forgot that Ethan wasn't in the hospital not to talk of Houston.“Okay, I know I'm annoying. But can you at least be a little nice? What I want to tell you is good news” Dan complained angrily.Ethan rolled his eyes and wanted to be done with this person as soon as possible.Ethan raise
The day went by very fast and soon it was time to get off work.Ethan walked downstairs to his car and soon arrived at the mansion which looked like a palace everytime he looks at it.He was still a bit lost in thought about his invite to Brian farewell party. He knew there is no way Steve will not invite Leona.But he also did not want to have anything to do with her anymore as she always gets into trouble when she is with him.He knew he didn't want to admit it before but he knew deep within his heart that he has fallen deeply in love with that stubborn and strong headed actress.But he also couldn't do anything about it. “This is for the best”. He murmured to himself .He was brought back to reality by the absence of his grandmother when he entered the mansion. Confused, he glanced around and noticed Charles giving him a nervous and worried look."Welcome , young master . You are home early today," Charles remarked trying to sound cheerfulEthan nodded as he quietly looked at
“She… she “ Charles stammered .He was confused with what was happening and for the first time he was in such a dire situation.And this also happened in just a few weeks after Ethan arrived .This could only means…..But this is also not the time to dwell on what this means . Ethan's gaze turned even colder, his voice demanding, "Charles, speak up. It can’t be that cat got your trouble now , is it ? What do you know about my grandmother's whereabouts?"Charles shifted nervously, feeling the weight of Ethan's intensity. He felt so intimidated with Ethan’s voice that he was surprised .Even the chairwoman doesn’t have such imposing character about her ."Young master, I'm afraid we don't know where she is. Her location is untraceable at the moment." He said. Ethan's lips curled into a cold smirk. "Untraceable? That means someone on the inside might be helping them. There's no way the Willow family, with all its influence, can't find out something if there isn't an insider involved."
Back in Scott, Sara and Princess Arva found themselves in a peculiar place. Instead of the expected abandoned hideout, they were in a room with luxurious furnishings, an elegant canopy bed, and opulent decorations that spoke of wealth. Sara calmly opened her eyes, her demeanor composed as she took in their surroundings. Beside her, Arva remained unconscious, her expression twisted in distress.As Arva's eyes fluttered open, she let out a loud, frightened scream, realizing she was tied to the bed. “Ahhh!!”“Wh… where am I ? What happened?” Sara turned her gaze to Arva, her voice soothing, "Arva, calm down. We need to figure out where we are."Arva's panic persisted, her voice shrill, "Sara… Sara , what's happening? Why are we here?"Sara's eyes scanned the room, her voice unwavering, "I don't have all the answers, but panicking won't help. Let's assess the situation first."Arva continued to struggle against her restraints, her words a mixture of fear and anger, "How can you be so
Ethan's lips tightened, his gaze fixed on the small bomb attached to Sara's back. The gravity of the situation hung heavily in the air as he watched his family now being in such a situation.This reminded him of the same situation he saved Brian from.“This is really funny” he said and looked away hiding the coldness in his voice. Sara looked at him quietly. His expression did not escape her vision.“What's funny ?” she asked with a raised eyebrows .“Seeing us in this situation is funny. Are you even listening to yourself. Do something. The Willows are know for their supernatural abilities and toy are here just standing there with no intentions to do anything about this matter” Aria said with a crazy look.“And who said I would want to waste my breath on someone like you?” Ethan said to her without giving her any face .“You…” Aria said with a surprise look.“ENOUGH!!”The man said with an annoyed expression. , “the last time I called I am still the one who got the upper hand in
Back in England, Ethan and Sara found themselves in her study room, both wearing serious expressions.Sara couldn't help but break the silence, asking, "How did you find out?"Ethan's smirk was dangerously cold as he replied, "It was rather obvious."Sara wasn't surprised by his response and calmly said, "I would've been quite disappointed if the heir of the Willows empire and CEO of HD Company didn't possess abilities like his parents."Ethan's smile grew colder as he answered, "What did surprise me was that the chairwoman of the Willows empire allowed herself to be captured over a simple test."Sara acted surprised, "You discovered my little test, did you?"Ethan continued, his tone unwavering, "You shouldn't have bothered acting vulnerable. Letting Arva think she had the upper hand in this kidnapping was a mistake."Their words continued to flow back and forth, their conversation filled with tension. Their eyes turned to Arva, now tied and lying on the floor, her face cold.Ethan a
Sara and Thessa settled into a conversation, their words flowing effortlessly. Thessa began by asking about Sara's health, her tone full of genuine concern. "Sara, how have you been holding up? This whole ordeal must have been incredibly stressful."she asked. Sara smiled warmly, appreciating Thessa's care. She held Tgessas hand intimately unlike her usual distant and cold attitude ."I've been better, but I'm a tough old lady. I won't let this situation bring me down." Sara answered with a smile .“I'm only glad you are back home safety” Thessa said with a concern look. “ It's heartwarming to have people like you around, Thessa. Your concern means a lot to me.” Sara chipped in with a delighted look.Thessa glanced towards Ethan, pretending not to recognize him. "And is this young man Ethan? The one who saved you?"she asked with a curious look. Sara's eyes sparkled with pride as she nodded. "Yes, that's him. Ethan is the reason I'm safe and sound right now. He handled that dange
