The Insurmountable Rise Of Ethan Watson

Extravagant decorations beautified the Graham family mansion with crystal chandeliers illuminating its features and giving it that warm and classy look.The wedding anniversary of Eric and Claire Graham, the parents of Melissa Graham was today and the family had gone all out to throw a party for them, inviting guests from only the top echelon of the city.Tonight was the party and they were the center of attraction seated on the sizable stage that had been mounted in the living room.There was a ton of dancing and eating and then it was time to gift the couple, so all the family members gathered around them."Mom, I see the way you watch the game of tennis keenly. I couldn't find a better gift for you except this crystal tennis bracelet worth $50,000, and it is one out of only 5 in the world." Melissa said with a look of endearment as she handed her the gift."..and dad, because of your love for playing dart games, I bought you this dart made of solid gold worth $70,000." Eric grinned

AT THE GRAHAM'S MANSIONEric Graham watched as Ethan drove out through the gate before he reached for his safe and brought out his burner phone making an anonymous call. The only thing being said was, “Do it now” and he disconnected the call. Turning in his chair with a cynical smirk, he reached for the drawer where he kept the contract signed by Ethan. He dropped the contract and removed the carbon paper that covered the actual document he needed Ethan's signature for, divorce papers.He packaged the divorce papers with Ethan's signature in a big brown envelope and used Ethan's phone to send a text message to Melissa that read, “Mel, I'm sorry it has to happen this way. I couldn't bear to see you crying, that's why I have to do it this way. We've been together for 5 years, married for three, and in all these years, I've always felt like I'm pulling you back and bringing shame to you. I love you too much to let it continue. You deserve more than I have to offer and it's a terrible f

The moment the doctor discharged Ethan, he ordered, "Let's go break the amazing news to Melissa and her family. I can't wait to see the look on their faces." He sounded delighted.On the way to Graham's mansion, Ethan had a taste of wealth as he saw Beryl City in a new light from the Ferrari Monza SP1 he sat in. This was the first time that he sat in a luxurious car with the likelihood of it being his.He had more appreciation for everything he saw and contemplated if this was a dream or if this would be his new life. He fantasized about vacations with Melissa and the respect he'll get from his in-laws whom he'll prove wrong for advising against his marriage with Melissa.“We're here sir,” Tony said, interrupting Ethan's fantasies. Ethan looked through the car window to see a lineup of cars that he only ever saw when the Grahams hosted events in the mansion. Puzzled and wondering what they could be celebrating, he asked Tony to find the nearest space to park as there was no way to dr

After the drama that ensued in the Graham's mansion, Ethan and Tony went to Paradise Valley, the city where Ethan's biological family resides.Upon Ethan's arrival, he gaped as this Mansion could comfortably contain 3 different buildings and there would still be space. It was 3 times bigger than what he had ever seen in his life.The drive-through had fields on each side with the grasses leveled, giving the scenery a feel of nature's touch. Ethan had some flashes of the times he spent playing with his sister, mother, and father here and noticed the gardens which still had red and white roses planted and this added color and beauty to the classy nature of the surroundings.Tony pushed the imposing mahogany doors to the mansion open, revealing Ethan's grandfather, Mr. Ben Watson, and Ethan's mother, Brianna Watson. Ethan had vague flashes revealing some memories from his childhood.Brianna rushed towards Ethan, holding his cheeks like she was holding her lost gold, "It's him. It's reall

Ethan woke up the next day and rolled into a sitting position on his 60 by 80 inches queen-sized bed.He stared at the ceiling and for a brief moment admired the beautiful POP ceiling designs illuminated by the diamond-shaped chandelier.He got up and took a walk to the window and looked through the window pane at a vibrant city littered with middle-class working men. He stared at those on construction sites a few meters away, as they laughed, drank beer, and made use of heavy machinery.He looked down on the street and took a glance at businessmen and women running behind time and the performers by the road playing to the emotions of passers-by with the hope of getting some cents out of them.It was a beautiful city for those in power and wealth. He had never seen the city from this view before. And since his ascent up the ladder of social class, he had been too busy to enjoy this view. This was the first time since he could remember that he didn't feel like everything was against hi
