“She really needs medical attention right now. I think she is losing her breath. The more you keep asking her certain questions, the more she keeps getting tired of answering." Alex suggested this while standing beside Mr.Ethan outside of the basement.“Oh! That’s a good idea, Alex. Let me go get my car keys, and we will both head to the nearest hospital in the city.” He responded as he hurriedly searched his pockets, looking for the car keys.“What are you looking for, sir?”“My car keys I thought I dropped in my pocket, and here I am looking for them without any traces of where I dropped them last.” -Ethan said with a sad look on his face. He felt that he was wasting so much time and taking Nadia's health for granted. On the other hand, while he was busy complaining about his carelessness, Alex was with his torchlight searching for where the keys might have dropped.“Finally! I found it.” Alex exclaimed as he picked up the key from the entrance of the basement and gave it to Ethan.“Tha
An hour later, Mr. Daniel, the doctor, walked into the receptionist room and asked for Mr. Ethan. As Ethan saw the doctor fast approaching, he ran towards the doctor with questions lingering on his face.“Good morning, doctor. My name is Ethan. I….I…Wa….” He kept on stuttering as he tried to introduce himself.Dr. Daniel could sense the tension on Ethan's face, so he parted him on his shoulder and told him to keep calm.‘I’m sorry about that, doctor. Let me introduce myself better now that I am calm. My name is Ethan. I’d love to know the state of that young girl. Has she gained consciousness? How is she doing now? Can I see her?” -Ethan kept on asking the doctor so many questions, as he didn’t give him any breathing space at all.“Mr. Ethan,I want you to calm down for a second. You are asking me too many questions at the same time. As for the young girl, she is doing so well. I’m so glad you brought her in as early as that. Assuming you brought her in by this time, I don’t know what the
Friday came so early, and it was time for Nadia to leave the hospital. She was excited that she'd be leaving the hospital that very day just to be at home with her uncle.“Here, take some fruits before we head back home,Ethan said to her as he opened the nylon bag he had with him, stacked up with some fruits of different kinds in it.Nadia was surprised to see different kinds of fruit in there.All these fruits for me," Nadia asked.“Yes! They aren’t too much, and besides, the doctor emphasised that you need to take more fruits for a healthy body. Don’t you want to stay fit again?” He asked her jokingly.“Who doesn't want to stay fit? I believe everyone wants to stay fit. We just don’t always find time for our bodies. But, as for me, I’ll prioritise my health above everything," she said to him.“That’s very good. I can’t believe all these smart words came out of your mouth," he jokingly said as he laughed with her and played with her hair.They both exchanged glances as they focused more on
CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE:“Why are you still looking at your phone? Is anything the problem?” Bella asked as she saw the long pause Marco took after he received a message from his phone.“It’s nothing, babe. It’s a message from the office. A new deal has been brought to us, and we have to think about it thoroughly before signing it." He responded as he dropped his phone and pulled off his clothes,planning to change into his pyjamas.“Wow! That’s a huge win,babe. Congratulations on that, and more congratulations to you as you keep on bagging new contracts." -“Thank you, babe, but I'd rather not be so excited about the win until we get to meet the CEO of the company and the board members, then I can partially rejoice a bit." He responded to her while he hopped on the bed to lay on his back and take some rest.“Okayyy.”Bella went into the bathroom and changed into something sexy and appealing to the eyes. She had a pink G-string on and a tiny bra that only covered her nipples. The most beautiful
“You can confide in me, Nadia. Whatever you are going through, you have me here to fight it out with you." -Ethan reassured her again for the second time.“Uncle Ethan I'm not going through a lot. In fact, no one came into the house. I went to the basement by myself when I was looking for you." She said to him:"Looking for me? Why were you looking for me? I thought I wrote a letter for you and dropped it on the bed." -he responded.“Yes! You wrote a letter, and I read it before I came down stairs, but I thought it was one of your sick games you enjoyed doing anytime you want to play hide and seek games with me, she said to him.“No! Why would I want to play hide-and-seek games with you as early as that? It’s not my thing, and I wouldn't jeopardise your health because of that. I clearly wrote it in the letter that I won't be around, and you should stay safe while I rush back home to you.""But I was scared. How do you expect only me to stay in this mansion and not be terrified?" She said
“Are you sure about that name?” He asked her with a low voice because he was standing at the entrance of the board room.“Yes! Sir, I’m sure about the research I conducted before I discovered that he was the one that entered that room.” She reassured him with her words.“Hmmm…. That’s fine. Thank you for the information.” He answered while adjusting his suit a bit before making an attempt to enter the boardroom.“Hold on a second!” Stella exclaimed“Sir, Is there a problem? If you don’t want to have the meeting with Mr. Marco, I can help you cut it off and come up with an excuse to give them.”“No! Everything is fine. Thank you for everything, Stella. If there is no further information, I'd rather just go in there and anchor the meeting rather than stand out here and keep them idle.” -“Sure! You can go in there and anchor it the best way possible.” She said this to him with a big smile on her face.He smiled back at her and entered the boardroom. As he got in there, he was surprised to see
“Nothing is wrong. I guess you are the one making dirty assumptions in your head and not thinking about the positive side.” He blurted it out as he moved away from Austin.“I’m not a kid anymore, Marco. There is something that you are holding back, and I know that you are hiding something from me with the way you are behaving. This is unlike you. What exactly is going on? Why this sudden attitude and character all of a sudden?” He questioned me while I was walking in his direction."Please don’t piss me off. Since we are done with the meeting for today, why don’t you just grab your bag and let’s go back to our office? You can as well stay back if you feel like maybe he’ll end up employing you.” He stumbled out of the office, closing the door in full force.“What exactly is wrong with Marco? Should I call this hate or just pure anger?” Austin questioned himself before following him out of the meeting room.Meanwhile, Marco had a strong face while walking out of the Greyport company. Some
Ethan entered his office and stumbled on his chair, processing everything that happened in the boardroom. He wasn’t happy that Marco would come up with the greedy idea of sharing the percentage in a 50-50 deal.“What has gotten into that boy’s head? Does he think that I am still that low-life Ethan’s boy that has been controlled by Bella? Oh! Poor Marco! I know you never believed that I would be the one behind the number one leading company in the city.” He thought to himself.“I think I need to come up with another plan that’s better than this one. I really need something that can bring me and Marco closer so that I’ll be able to attack him when he thinks I mean no harm to him," he muttered to himself, sketching something on the drawing pad.Ring!Ring!His phone rang and brought his attention back to reality. He picked his phone down on the desk and turned it to see who was calling him. His screen graced his eyes with Nadia’s name popping in. Immediately, his heart raced as he thought so
