“Now, leave us,” Joan said coldly at Manager Lin.“Me?” he asked with a confused look“Who else I’m I talking to?" Joan replied in an angry voice.Seeing that she was going to explode anytime soon, he excused himself.“Sorry, Sorry. I will take my leave.” He said and gave Ethan an angry look before he left.Ethan rolled his eyes at her after they were left alone.He couldn’t keep up with this lady anymore.She was becoming more unbearable to be with.“Boss, what did I do just now? You were impressed right?" Joan said with her eyes shining like a kid waiting to be rewarded for doing a good thing.“What are you doing here ?” Ethan asked with his hands crossed on his chest.“I came to take care of you," she replied with a smile.“The last time I checked, I didn't need your help in taking care of things here. “ he said with a cold look.Joan was a bit taken aback by his looks and knew she had gone overboard.But was he expecting her to react when the heir of the Willow family is now a
Joan felt no regret how she reacted towards him and it showed on her face.“The role of the young heir of the Willow family is no joke. Maybe Kate and Steve might not have explained your identity very well to you. But believe me, it's much more than going around ordering people in a company.”She paused and looked at his expression to see if she could read his emotions.But as it turned out, he looked more like a block than a human.There was nothing she would see. And as someone who can usually read people, this young master was different.Seeing that he said nothing she continued .“The fact that you weren’t even brought home or raised at home should tell you, your life is not as easy as you predicted. I had to make sure you are worthy of the title as the heir of the family,”“And what was the result?” Ethan asked calmly .“You are the heir. The moment I saw that glow in your eyes, I knew you are more deserving than anyone else. You have all the qualifications and with those e
Ethan walked hastily towards the car and drove off.His face was clouded in the coldness that Kate who was pulled along with him felt she would freeze before they reached the destination.She first thought something had happened to him but instead, it was about that boy he saved.He seemed to have caused a bit of trouble in school.As they entered the school compound, the teachers and kids who were were back from break were all frightened by his gaze.But soon it was replaced with admiration. Even though his handsome face was hidden behind his glasses, his good looks, and features couldn’t be hidden.The female students all started shouting with some even saying they would die with regret if they don't get kids from him.“Oh my goodness, he is so good looking ““Is he by any chance some kind of an influential man here in the city?”“I don’t see anything special about him. I just see an ordinary man with glass on having such a scary gaze”One of the jealous males who has always been p
Ethan ignored the look Brian was giving him and stared directly at the principal with coldness on his face.“I just heard you rebuking him over something he just did to defend himself. May I ask if is it also okay for one to openly bully one in school."Ethan asked as he pointed at Brian.The principal was taken aback as this was the first time someone was talking to him in such a manner.Even Jack’s uncle who was the mayor always showed him some respect while talking to him.But this brother of Brian whom he had never heard of was acting all high and mighty towards him.He felt enraged and it showed on his face.“Well for your information, this school has rules that there shouldn't be any violence between the students or any fights in the school. They can settle whatever grudge they have with each other outside. But your dear brother here went against the rule. And that is very unacceptable ” the principal said with a calm look.“So what you are trying to say is, if one tried
Brian was quiet as he sat in the car with Ethan.He was taking secret peeks at him not believing what he just experienced at the principal's office not long ago. Because he didn’t want to worry his nanny, he called Ethan for help.He first thought he would come and then accept to pay the fine for Jack’s treatment.Who would have thought that he would be the one to be given the fine for the little bruise on his face?He still doesn’t know what magical powers Ethan performed to get the Mayor to personally call and apologize for his nephew’s mistake.He looked like he made the right decision to trust him.His phone rang to dispute the silence in the car.He looked at it and saw that it was his nanny calling.“Hello,” he said in an obedient voice.“Brain, I just got a call from one of your classmates that you put yourself in trouble," His nanny's anxious voice could be heard on the phone .Ethan looked at him and silently looked away.Brian on the other hand was cursing at which of
Ethan had no emotion on his face even after all that was being said about him by those people.He was sure Daphne was very enraged inward but was just pretending to be okay on the outside as he saw her calm expression.He looked at Tim who had been silent all these while and saw that his expression was also ugly.It was hard for an heir like him who is always being sorted out by most ladies in the city, to be looked down on by the people here.He looked at the person responsible for this and saw that Ethan was just silently standing there without saying anything.“It’s better if you tame your woman. She is being unruly and it isn’t looking good for your image.” Ethan said in a friendly reminder and walked away.Daphne thought she had suffered enough humiliation that he would at least leave her face even after bringing up their past relationship.Tim was also not happy, but he kept his emotions in check as he knew he still needed Daphne and her family’s help.If not, he would hav
Dan did not know what was going on in Ethan’s mind.To him, his ultimate priority was to protect himself from anyone who would go against him.“I. I only…”Brian couldn’t bring himself to say the words he wanted.He felt that if he explained himself soon, he might lose the only people whom he could rely on apart from his parents. “I don’t care what you have schemed. Or what your motives are. But I would never allow you or anyone else to hurt Ethan," Dan declared with a heavy look.“That’s enough,” Ethan said and for the first time, he held Dan's hands with an assuring face though there was no warmth in his eyes.“But he might be here to harm you, “ Dan said with a worried look.“It’s okay," Ethan said and looked at Brian, Waiting to hear what he had to say.Brian wanted to keep this a secret and not let anyone else know about this.He wanted to keep this from them but it looks like that would not happen.He resigned to his fate and closed his eyes.“He is someone I know and can t
“LEONA”Mila couldn’t keep it in any longer and exploded.“Yes, I’m right here, why are you screaming? I almost became deaf”Leona said as she picked up her ears. This act was like she was having ear problems because of her scream.“You shouldn’t forget my influence in the city. I can make you suffer in such a way that you will regret forever for going against me” Mila threatened.She has always maintained herself and wouldn't lose control when someone tries to make her angry.But with Leona, her face alone was enough to make her so angry.How she wished she could tear that face off her.With this face. She was always a real problem to her.Even her brother who was working in a different city and came for a visit saw her picture and declared he had to get her.Even after she explains to him that she has been nothing but a pain in the ass.He still wanted to have her.To him, she is the missing piece he had been searching for.Though she knew about her brother’s obsession with beauty
