Chapter twenty two.

Caleb's father received a call, and he answered, "Yes?"

"Sir, we sent you the documents for Miracle Doctor," the voice on the other end said.

"Good. I'll check them now." With that, Caleb's father ended the call.

He settled into his bed, putting on his glasses as he unlocked his phone and scrolled to the message. He opened it, but his brow furrowed in confusion - there was nothing there.

"How can a son of a nobody try to sabotage my son?" he muttered under his breath, a low hiss escaping his lips.

He quickly dialed the number again. The man answered on the first ring.

"Are you sure that's the right file?" Caleb's father asked, his tone laced with skepticism.

"Yes, sir. That's all we could lay our hands on," the man replied.

“Hmmmm,” Caleb's father hummed, his mind racing with possibilities.

"I want you to keep an eye on Ethan, track his every move, and monitor his calls," Caleb's father instructed.

"This task is difficult, sir," the person responded hesitantly.

    Chapter twenty three."Are you out of your mind?" Caleb's father thundered, his face red with rage.Caleb rolled his eyes. "Father, I've made up my mind. I'm getting married tomorrow."His father let out a disgusted hiss. "Do you know we have more pressing issues, and all you can think about is getting married? How on earth are you my son?"Caleb tuned out his father's rant, his mind made up. "Father, I'm getting married tomorrow, and it's final. You may think I'm on the wrong path, but trust me, this will solve many problems. Besides, you don't need to invite many people."As he spoke, Caleb's father placed his hands on his neck, and Caleb flinched, raising an eyebrow. "What's the meaning of that, Dad?" he asked, a hint of wariness creeping into his voice."I just wanted to make sure you're okay because..."

"I would have asked whether you liked my gift," Ethan said, his eyes glinting with amusement, "but from everything that's happened, I think it's clear you both not just like but love my gift. But it's nothing, really – just a token."Caleb's anger simmered, his teeth gritted. He was already irritated with Maria for openly displaying her happiness without a second thought, and now Ethan was mocking them openly."I'm sure you stole the car," Caleb spat.Ethan chuckled, his smile widening. "Do I need to remind you to add 'allegedly' to that statement? My lawyers are jobless, and they won't hesitate to take you to court."Rose stepped forward, her voice sharp. "How dare you ta

    Chapter twenty six."I will drop you off at your place," Ethan said, as they finished their breakfast at the upscale restaurant. Victoria nodded, still feeling a little frustrated that Ethan had insisted on paying the bill despite her offers to cover it."Thank you," Victoria said, smiling up at Ethan as they walked to the car.Ethan opened the door for her, and she slid into the passenger seat. As they drove away, Victoria couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment. She had been trying to tell herself to stop falling for Ethan, but it was getting harder by the day.The worst part was that Ethan seemed completely oblivious to her feelings. He was so caught up in his own world that he barely noticed anything outside of it.As they drove, Ethan turned on the radio, filling the car with the sound of upbeat music. Victoria gazed out the window, lost in her own thoughts, wondering if she would ever be able to get through to Ethan.They had been driving for a while, and the scenery

    Ethan's eyes snapped open, and he flinched, surprised to see his men from the West standing over him. But what really caught him off guard was their attire - they were all dressed in nurse uniforms."What are you doing here? And this outfit?" Ethan asked, trying to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through his leg, and he realized he couldn't move it. "What's going on?" he demanded, his eyes narrowing.One of his men stepped forward, his expression serious. "Sir, that's why we're here. You were in danger of being arrested, and if you didn't end up in jail, it would have meant exposing your true identity."Ethan's face darkened into a scowl. "What do you mean by arrested?" he asked, confusion etched on his face.His men explained that initially, they had discovered someone trying to access his classified file. They had attempted to contact him, but he hadn't responded. So, they decided to intervene, only to find out that the police were looking for an imposter - and that imposter was Et

"Let me get the first aid kit."Caleb's expression darkened, and he barked, "I'm fine! Why can't you get that in your head?"Maria's eyes darted back, fear flickering across her face. For a moment, Caleb's anger had transformed him into a stranger, a monster.But as quickly as it had appeared, Caleb's anger dissipated.

"This can't be real, it's all a prank."He returned Maria's phone, his hands shaking as he searched his pockets for his car keys. His gaze fell on the table, and he snatched the keys."Caleb, Caleb, Caleb!" Maria called after him, but he ignored her, striding purposefully towards his car.He slid into the driver's seat and started the engine, speeding away from the chaos. Caleb's mind raced with denial."This has to be a prank," he told himself. "Ethan's just a son of a nobody. There's no way he could have pulled this off."Caleb's confidence grew with each passing mile. He had hired a powerful hitman; there was no way Ethan could have survived.A cold smile spread across his face. "Ethan's just trying to scare me," he thought. "But I'm not buying it.”Caleb's eyes widened as he pulled up to the warehouse. The building was re

    Chapter fifty four.Maria looked at him, confused. "You were expecting me to come?” she asked. Ethan nodded, lighting a cigarette. "Yes, I thought you'd fall to your knees, crying and pleading, like you usually do when you're in a tight spot." He said this with a smug tone. But Maria surprised him by letting out a sigh of relief, rather than taking offense. She remained calm, knowing she has a mission to accomplish.She put on a bright smile as Ethan gazed at her with an unreadable expression. Swaying her hips, she walked towards him and wrapped her arms around his shoulders, smiling seductively. However, her charm had no effect on Ethan; instead, he felt disgusted by her behavior.

"Good, so I've come up with a way for us to get back at him," Caleb continued, a hint of a plan forming on his face. Maria chuckled, skeptical. "Getting back at Ethan isn't easy. He's powerful, and everyone will work in his favor, not ours," she said, her frown deepening as she sipped her coffee. Caleb's expression turned intense. "I know. That's where you come in," he said, his eyes locking onto hers. Maria's frown deepened, her disbelief evident. "Me?" she asked, her voice laced with skepticism.

"I'm sure you're not talking to me," she said, her tone dripping with sarcasm.Maria moved closer, her voice rising. "Who else would I be talking to? Husband snatcher!" Victoria corrected her, shaking her head, "No! Ex-husband. Ethan is your ex-husband. Move on, girl. You're married."Maria's face twisted in rage, her teeth gritted. She hated Victoria's confidence. "Caleb and I are getting divorced," she spat. "Watch me win Ethan back."Victoria smiled, unfazed. "I love a lady who dreams. Ethan can never be yours."

    Chapter forty Eight.Maria's anger flared as Ethan seemed unfazed by the encounter. Instead of apologizing, he acted nonchalant, like he owned the place. A waiter passed by, and Maria swiftly grabbed a glass of wine from his tray. With a swift motion, she poured the wine directly onto Ethan's face.The waiter gasped, "Ma'am, do—"But Ethan's calm demeanor silenced her. He raised his hand, and the waiter nodded, backing away. "You may go," Maria said, her voice firm. The waiter hurried off.As the wine dripped from Ethan's face, he chuckled. "You're lucky it's only wine I have access to. Otherwise, you'd have faced worse,” She said. Maria's actions had no effect on his attitude, and his calm demeanor unnerved her. She walked closer, folding her arms across her chest, a smirk on her face. Ethan didn't flinch, his hands still clasped behind his back."I hope you don't regret this," Ethan said, his voice low and even.Maria's smirk faltered for a moment, but she regained her composure

    Chapter forty seven.It was the day of the party, and the venue was lavishly decorated. The hall was filled with families of the elite, and Maria stood there with Caleb beside her and Rose on the other side. Maria wore a stunning black, long, off-the-shoulder gown, complete with gloves and a fan that she used to cool herself slightly. Rose wore a similar outfit, but in red, with her hair styled elegantly and a crown on her head.That night, Maria and Rose had a shared goal: to catch the General of West's attention and seduce him. Meanwhile, Caleb's goal was to make a good impression on the General and, if possible, get to have a relationship with his sister. However, none of them revealed their plans to each other."Do you think he's handsome?" Rose asked as she picked up a cocktail. "Yes, I've learned that no man meets his standards," Maria responded. Caleb scoffed, disliking the fact that they were already hyping up the General of West without even seeing him, but he remained s
