VIP pass please” the chubby bulked up man at the checkpoint asked, stretching out his arm towards Ethan and Jack as they approached.“I hope you didn't forget that, with all your talks of victory over me?” Jack threw accusatory glances, as he turned to look at Ethan.“VIP membership card coming right up!” Ethan said as he held the card and flew it like an airplane into the hands of the security at the checkpoint.The security took the card and scanned it shortly. “Here, have it” He said as he handed the card back to Ethan.“Thank you” Ethan replied with a smile and he turned to Jack and said, “See? Easy-peasy. Card accepted and now I'm taking you to the slaughter, where I'll show you who's king between us” “Much talk from a man who hasn't been able to beat me since college” Jack retorted, as he grinned in self-satisfaction Ethan and Jack walked towards the lawn tennis court to pick up their rackets and stretch for sometime when Claire's voice was heard, “I'm guessing they let just a
Having already drawn the attention of people who were around them but were now dispersing as they saw Ethan turn to walk away from the scene.Rora saw an incoming call. It was from the personal assistant of the new investor she had just secured to officially launch her brand, Rora's makeovers.As she saw the call, she quickly called Ethan's attention saying, "Guess who's calling? My new investor's personal assistant. He is probably calling to sign the contract today itself. You see, this is what happens when you burst your ass and your hard work pays off."Ethan stopped in his tracks and Jack joined where he was now standing. Claire walked up to Jack and Ethan and said, "This, right here, is what success sounds, looks and feels like. Too sad, you would never be able to experience this."The crowd had gathered again. Claire encouraged Rora, "Pick up the call and share the pleasant news with us.""Oh! Right! I almost forgot about that," Rora said as she picked up the call."Hello, Rora
Ethan and Jack's laughter resounded across the lawn, and if looks could kill, Ethan and Jack would be 6 feet under, with the way Claire shot daggers at them.Cassie finally spoke up, "You stand there to mock Rora when both of you combined are not even worth half of what Rora is worth.""At least we know this as a fact and we're not living in denial." Jack retorted as they continued laughing.Some members amongst the crowd joined them to laugh and mock Rora for trying to deceive them with her lies."Enough!!! Your presence here has spoiled the aura and purity of these grounds. You have ruined the once fun, peaceful ambience that filled this place. You have done enough and you should leave." Claire commanded Ethan and Jack."Excuse me!!! But I know for a fact that you do not own this place, so you have absolutely no right to chase us away from here." Ethan made sure to put Claire in her place."Yeah, he's right. The same way you struggled and waited for ages to become a VIP member, we a
Ethan woke up to the rays of the sun peaking through the curtains.He had a swell day with Jack the day before, after Claire was thrown out of the sports arena.For most of it, he defeated Jack as he had promised, whilst Jack kept bragging about his little wins.Ethan stretched to pick his phone up from the night stand and he saw 10 missed calls from Tony.Ethan had put his phone in silence mode after he got back from the sports arena. He was so tired and he needed a peaceful sleep without any disturbance from anybody.He informed his manservant to not allow anybody into his room to disturb him and he silenced his phone.Seeing 10 missed calls from Tony as he woke up, he pinched his forehead and wondered, 'what could be wrong?'He immediately dialed Tony's number in and it started ringing. Tony picked up on the first ring and said, "Sir Ethan, I've got important information for you concerning your sister, Elora."At the mention of his sister, Elora, Ethan's eyes brightened and he was
It was date night for Melissa and Jason and they had a blast at the restaurant chosen by Claire Graham, Melissa's mom.“Why'd your mom pick out a restaurant for us?” Jason asked Melissa as they held hands and walked out of the restaurant into the car.“I don't know, I guess she was just being nice and supportive. Who knows?” Melissa answered.“Your dad also called me to ask how the date went. Why do I feel really awkward about all these? Hope they're not planning something we're not ready for” Jason said as he walked over to his side of the car without opening the door for Melissa.Melissa was used to this as Jason never gave her princess treatment, only Ethan did. She opened the door for herself and got into the car as they started their journey home.“Babe, I really enjoyed tonight. Everything was perfect. The lights, the aesthetics and the food, oh my God the food! I loved it and the music was timely” Melissa gushed over the whole experience to Jason in the car, as she was filled w
The news channel was interrupted by “Breaking News”.Breaking News! The TV presenter was seated in his chair as the camera returned to the studio and he said, “Good morning and welcome back to BC news. My name is James Boulder and today I'll be bringing to you the breaking news of the day. The Graham's have made a huge announcement today, In a week's time, the only daughter of Eric and Claire Graham will be getting married to Jason Miller, the heir to Miller companies.He took a pause and turned around like there was someone around when he continued, “Wow! What a union. I had to check around to see if any other person was bewildered by this news, hahaha. In a historic…”Ethan switched off the TV while the broadcast was ongoing. He got up from his chair and paced around a bit. He walked to the nightstand by the bed and picked his phone that was on it and called Sarah.“Hello?”“Yeah, I'm fine. How're you?”“Alright, could you come to the restaurant we went to last time so we'll talk?”
Tony rushed down to Ethan's penthouse to know what the call was about.He walked into the building and hopped into the lift to reach the penthouse. “Good day sir” Tony echoed as he stood in the living room of the penthouse.“Tony! How're you?” Ethan asked as he got out of the room to sit in the living room with Tony.Tony bowed his head as he stood to watch Ethan sit. “Sit please” Ethan said, gesturing to the other sofa beside Tony.“Thank you, young Master” Tony said but received a death stare from Ethan who had warned him about calling him ‘young master’.“I'm sorry sir” he said, realizing his mistake.“So, how have things been for you sir?” Tony asked as he lowered himself onto the sofa. “Well, I've been good actually but I'm about to be better. How have you been?” Ethan said with a smirk.“I'm doing quite well sir. What do you mean sir, when you say you're about to be better? Would it have anything to do with your reason for summoning me?” Tony replied.“Well indeed Tony, indeed
“Is she sick or something?”“ Can't she tell he's broke? I mean look at the cheap clothes he's wearing.”The remarks were random from the sales reps gathering to watch Tyra attend to Ethan.Tyra walked up to Ethan and asked, "How may I be of help to you , Sir? Is there anything specific you're looking for? I could show you around and help you select something that fits your physique."He looked around and seemed to have a hard time determining what he wanted.The other sales rep took it as a sign that he was looking for what to steal and the fastest route to run away with it.“ You can't steal anything here and run away successfully,” one of the sales reps said to Ethan.“Steal? Who said I planned on stealing? I'm only here to buy clothes and I'll leave your precious space.“You obviously can't afford anything here so why are you distracting this young girl from attending to better clients?”Another sales rep asked.Ethan turned deaf ears to them and asked Tyra,”Tyra, is it?”“Yes it i
