The Insurmountable Rise Of Ethan Watson CHAPTER 58
Jason noticed Melissa's eyes were staring daggers at him and he left the lady he was dancing with, to give Melissa some attention.He hugged her and with the stench of alcohol in his mouth, he screamed amidst the music playing in the background, “Hey babe! You remember her from highschool?”Melissa was disgusted by his behavior and the alcohol he poured from his breath right into her nostrils, but with a condescending look she replied, “Yes, your hooker girl back in the day. How could I forget?”Melissa turned to the lady and asked,” Charlene is it?”“Yes it is. And I don't see myself as a ‘hooker girl’. We're just two people who love to unwind and party. You should try it sometimes” Charlene replied.Charlene turned to Jason with a disappointed look as she held his face “Gotta go now. Your girl is still a party pooper, even if she's with you now. See you later”.Charlene walked away right after slipping her number written on a paper inside Jason's pocket.Frustrated and let down, Jas

"Jack, you finally made it. Took you long enough." Ethan said as he returned to Sarah's side and they noticed Jack walk in.Jack walked happily with his arm candy towards Ethan as he greeted and hugged both Sarah and Ethan.“Took you long enough” Sarah said to Jack with her eyes staring at the lady beside Jack.“It's not what you think guys” Jack said as soon as he noticed Ethan and Sarah staring suspiciously.“Ethan and Sarah, this is Lydia. And Lydia dear, these are my friends, Sarah and Ethan” Jack continued.Lydia walked over to hug Ethan and Sarah with her auspicious smile and they smiled back at her.“So, what's the story with you two? Are you dating or?” Sarah started with an expectant look for a continuation.Lydia and Jack laughed as Ethan and Sarah stared confusingly then Lydia spoke up, “Oh no, we're not dating. We are childhood friends and since you both came as a pair, he asked me to join him and get a chance to meet his friends and I couldn't say no. He has those puppy e

"You deserved that." Sarah spat at Ted before walking away with Ethan, Jack and Lydia."But how did that just happen? I mean how did Ted lose everything in one swift move." Lydia asked with curiosity written all over her features."They probably found out that instead of using the original materials that were supposed to be used for the brand, Ted got greedy and used substandard materials instead." Jack tried explaining"Plus, I had everything streamed live, so that must've dealt the final blow to his bullshit." Ethan smiled mischievously, wiggling his phone in his hand."Thanks man for having my back." "Hey, hey, hey, you would do the same for me."Jack and Ethan bro-hugged before Lydia broke the bonding moment and said,"Enough with all the mushy mushy. I heard there's supposed to be a homecoming king and queen at this reunion. Something like back in the days in highschool and college.""Yeah, I heard that too, but I'm not interested. Are you?" Sarah threw the question to Lydia."I

"Enough of the scrawny looks on our faces. They would think they had an effect on us if we keep on like this." Lydia sighed, as she rubbed Jack's back."She's right. We can't keep giving them that satisfaction." Ethan said to the group."What are we doing standing around here? Let's get the dance floor lit." Sarah said, trying to lift the mood and turn their frowns to a smile.Sarah pulled Ethan to the dance floor with her and soon enough, Jack and Lydia joined them.While on the dance floor, two of their colleagues begun whispering,"I heard Ethan and Sarah want to run for homecoming king and queen against Melissa and Jason.""Ethan and Sarah are just wannabees. They would never match up to Melissa and Jason.""Right!!! I wonder what I was thinking when I almost walked over to Ethan to talk to him when he walked in here looking like some charming prince.""You forgot that he was the pauper that was kissing Melissa's ass back in the day.""Hahaha.." Both of them burst out laughing."I

“Woah! The energy here is off the roof!!!” the compere said with a smile, trying to calm everyone and make it look like it was part of an act.“Hand over what is mine, you cheating slut!” Melissa screamed, as she rushed towards Sarah but was stopped by the compere.Sarah held onto Ethan's arm tightly like a little child who had just seen a ghost.“This year's reunion sure is creative! I like this. Having a paid actress to fight for the crown, showing the importance of the crown in one's life. Please let's give it up for the organizers of this year's reunion.” the compere said, while signaling the security nervously.The crowd laughed so hard at what the compere just said and Melissa kept on hearing murmurs from the crowd,“She's so miserable”“She’s like an 80 year old lady seeking validation from a children's pageantry. It's so sad”“What a sore loser”“I wouldn't want to be her”Melissa pulled on her hair as she knelt on stage in frustration and screamed out,“You all are nothing in

"Baby!!! You look like you just got hit by a truck, what happened?" Claire inquired, as Melissa and Jason walked through the door."C'mon mom, it's not that bad." Melissa said, trying to console herself with how terrible she looked and felt."Not thay bad, huh? Jason is literally limping and your mascara is all over your face like you cried. What happened at the reunion?" Melissa and Jason fell unto the couch, fatigued.Before they could respond to all the questions that Claire was throwing at them, Eric came storming down the stairs,"What the heck did you two do now? Why are the Grahams trending again, for the wrong reasons? I thought I gave a stern warning concerning that?"Jason was groaning in pain as he had sprained his ankle from the fall.Melissa begun wailing after Eric yelled at her and Jason."Mom, Dad, everything is ruined and it's all Ethan's fault.""Ethan's fault? What did he do this time?" Claire asked impatiently."Ethan.." Jason was about to explain what happened, w

“How about doing something that he would never be forgiven for and no one will want to side him on?” Henry suggested.“Yes? But that's almost impossible, he won't do anything like that. He's too much of a righteous being when it comes to the things he does and doesn't” Melissa chipped in.“So what do we do about that?” Claire questioned.“Can we set him up and make him do it? By drugging him or any means necessary?” Eric added.“Who said anything about him doing anything? Henry said as he sat upright on the couch.With everyone staring at him expectantly and their eyes signaling him to continue with sharing the details of his plan, he began to explain, “What if we can find someone that will be willing to blackmail him for doing something unforgivable and we can forge proof with Photoshop. The Internet doesn't do much research with these sensitive matters, they mostly just go with the ladies' story. If we can use that to our advantage, he'd be locked up for life”.“That's a brilliant i

Hello, Why are you not home yet?” Henry said on the phone. He had gone back to an empty house he had rented for her but coming home to the empty house wasn't quite unusual.“I…I went to see mom. The doctor called so I had to rush over, I should have called to inform you, I'm sorry about that.” Kehlani said hurriedly knowing fully well what reaction would follow the situation.“Well, get here. Now.” Henry ended the call abruptly, then tossed his phone on the couch.He reached to lessen the pressure of his tie while striding towards the mini bar. A smile curled on his lips as he thought about the plan he's about to actualize.He got hold of a bottle of bourbon before he could think of an actual choice of drink. He chose the bottle of bourbon because it tends to help him think better.The sound of a closed door drew him out of oblivion, he checked his watch to find out that an hour had gone by.“Took you long enough.” He said blandly. His eyes moved up and down her figure, and a smile t

Kehlani stared through the window of the car as she sat at the back seat of the taxi.Her hands fidgeted in fear as she thought of the ways she would be dealt with by Henry.“We're here ma'am” the taxi driver called out as he infiltrated her subconscious.Startled she sprung out of the car and started moving away when she hit her head against the stop sign and turned around to see the driver facepalming himself.Khelani walked towards the car and picked up her purse that contained her phone and some cash and handed the amount for the ride to the driver after which he zoomed off.She took at deep breath and walked up into the apartment.“Woman! Where are you waddling into this house from?” Henry yelled out as soon Kehlani opened the door to the sight of him sitting on the couch.“I'm very sorry” Khelani went on her knees and begged as she crawled to Henry.“Why are you begging? Where have you been?” Henry insisted.“I've been at the…” Khelani Paused to think of how to tell Henry she's

“Yes, I am at the hospital,” Kehlani answered.“What the fuck does that have to do with you not being home? Get your ass over here now!” Henry yelled from the other end of the phone.“Won't you want to know what I'm doing in the hospital? Aren't you worried at all?” Surprise was stamped on Kehlani's face as she questioned Henry.There was a certain silence as she questioned Henry, but it was short lived as he picked up yelling, “Why would I care? Do you think I go around my day wondering what you're doing and probably not doing? I couldn't give two fucks about that and quite frankly, you still haven't answered the original question; why are you not at home?”.“My mom…” Kehlani was interrupted by Henry's sudden question, “Right! Your mom, is she dead?”“No! Why would you say such a thing?” Kehlani retorted.“You know what? I'm tired and this conversation is draining my good energy, get home now” Henry ordered.Khelani almost immediately rushed to tell Henry, "I'm currently in…”, but

Ethan strode down the steps defeated and worried when he saw the doctor that handled Kehlani's mother's surgery.“Doctor, how is Mrs. Michaels? Is she getting better?”“Yes, she just woke up and is talking to her daughter right now.” The doctor responded casually.Ethan almost walked away when he understood what the doctor meant and stopped him to ask, “wait, her daughter? Is she there with her right now?”“Her daughter, the lady you came with earlier, is there with her mother. Will that be all sir?” The doctor asked Ethan politely.Ethan raced up the stairs to Mrs. Michael's room and gently knocked on the door. “Come in,” Kehlani replied.Ethan heaved a sigh of relief as he opened the door, “Hello ma'am, and hello Khelani”.“You look worried sir, I hope all is well?” Khelani asked Ethan, whose brows were furrowed in frustration.“Well, all is well now. I just came from your room, and I thought you had left the hospital, but I'm glad you're here with your mom.” Ethan said, as he drag

“Please help me get up” Kehlani asked Ethan, as she winced in pain.“Slowly. Take it easy” Ethan guided, as she sat upright and he helped her on to the wheelchair by the bedside.“How do you feel? Comfortable?” Ethan questioned, as he checked the wheelchair to see if there was any issue before moving.“It's okay. I'm okay, let's go see my mom” Kehlani said with a smile, before Ethan wheeled her round the hospital and into the recovery room where her mom was kept.“Please we can't let strangers see patients” a male nurse that has just resumed duty for his afternoon shift said to Ethan.“I agree I'm a stranger but she's not. She's the daughter of the patient” Ethan said, pointing to Kehlani in the wheelchair.“Please what is the name of the patient you wish to see?” the nurse asked.“Mrs. Michael. Daniella Michael is her name” Kehlani responded with a nonchalant look.“And what is your name ma? Please may I have your file to confirm that too?” “I'm Kehlani Michael and here's my file to

"Nice to meet you, Kehlani. You seemed to be in a haste when you tripped over the huge rock in front of the hospital, causing the fall that impacted your head. Is everything alright?" Kehlani instantly remembered that she was rushing to the hospital to plead with the doctors to accept half payment in order to proceed with her mom's surgery, as she was informed that her mom needed the surgery urgently."My mom! Where is my mom? I need to get to her right now." Kehlani moved to leave the bed frantically, but Ethan didn't let her."Your mom? What happened to your mom? I'm sorry I can't let you get off this bed. The nurse said you need rest." Kehlani tried struggling in Ethan's grasp but Ethan didn't flinch and she broke into tears."My mom needs urgent surgical attention and I only have half the money for the surgery. I need to plead with the doctors to understand my situation and help my mom, so I won't lose her." Kehlani said in-between tears."That's the problem? I need you to stop

“Good day sir, please help me” Kehlani said, as she dropped slowly to the floor with her injured forehead bouncing off the hospital tiles.“Somebody help her! Nurses! Doctors! Help!” Ethan cried out as he saw the young lady look up to him helplessly before she passed out.A team of doctors and nurses ran out and lifted the patient onto a stretcher and admitted her to be treated, while Ethan waited to make sure she was okay.Ethan paced back and forth the waiting room as his thoughts raged free enough to make him scared for the lady.“Who could she be?“She fell so abruptly, will she need surgery?”“I hope she gets better,” Ethan whispered under his breath.“Mr. Ethan?” A nurse called out.“Yes? That would be me” Ethan replied as his body trembled with thoughts of what the news could be .“Sir, the patient you brought to our attention is stable but she's unconscious. Do you know her name and other details we could write down in her file?” The nurse asked with a smile.Ethan heaved a si
