last update Last Updated: 2025-01-14 21:30:50

Finding a decent line of work in London is a hard one however Ethan a 32-year-old who is from London was ideal to have an employment and not just any rate work but he was an effective senior financier.

Ethan is a tall refined man, with earthy colored eyes and full hair, he is the first child of his parents and he was getting along nicely.

Ethan lives alone in his condo in London.

It was cold on a Monday morning, and at precisely 5:00 Am which was Ethan’s ordinary season of awakening, his caution rang and he awakened

Ethan adores his work however he can't stand Mondays

"Goodness, I disdain Mondays, the dawns exceptionally quick every Sunday night, is it that each Sunday night is a brief time, how I wish I can rest all the more yet I can't on the grounds that I would rather not be behind schedule for work" Ethan soliloquizes

He got up and said his morning petitions then he went to shower and do different things after which he bundled his morning meal and left for work

Ethan typically goes out at precisely 6:30 Am consistently despite the fact that work begins by 8:00 Am, and he will arrive as early as 7:00 Am

"In as much as I disdain Mondays, I can't skip work on Mondays, yes it's something that is normal for everyone because everybody abhors Mondays since Mondays reminds you that resting days are over" Ethan Soliloquizes as he enters the bank

After the manager, the security, and the cleaners, Ethan was the 6th individual that generally comes to work on time

One of the cleaners by the name of Angela who has eyes for Ethan saw that he was soliloquizing then she chose to know why

"Sir, Ethan, good morning," Angela welcomed

"Morning Angela, how are you?" Ethan inquire

"I am fine Sir, gratitude for asking, and you?" Angela addressed

"Well as you can see am OK" Ethan answered rapidly

"Sir, pardon me but I was contemplating whether anything is annoying you?" Angela asked

"I don't have the foggiest idea about, how do you mean?" Ethan responds

"I saw you were soliloquizing when you strolled in and my Dad generally says that when one soliloquizes he's upset," Angela said

"Goodness, that, Its nothing, it's simply that I disdain Mondays, it reminds me that resting days are over, I need to awaken and come to work and I will do that till Friday" Ethan makes sense of

"Haha, me as well, I disdain Mondays, early today when my caution rang, I was like 'Monday business day' however I truly need this work so I had to come but do you have any idea why one gets worn out on Monday morning?" Angela snickered and addressed

"No, tell me" Ethan mentioned

"Indeed, one gets drained on Monday morning as a result of a lot of flexing during the weekends," Angela makes sense of

"Haha, you're hilarious Angela and in some way you're correct however I don't do flexing, I spend my weekends on my PC setting flies that I will use to work, the most un-outing I do is to stroll to my closest companion's home and chill with him in his home, nothing much, so assuming you're figuring I did a ton of flexing during the weekends you're off-base in light of the fact that flexing isn't my thing" Ethan chuckled and said swiftly

"I know sir," Angela answered

"How did you know?" Ethan inquire

"Because if you flex, you will not have the potency to be coming to work right on time from Mondays to Fridays, since I began working here I have never seen you come to work late and somebody who flexes won't be coming to work this early because they will be worn out" Angela elucidates

Ethan was amused that he had to ask "Wow, Angela, did you study psychology in school?"

"No, I didn't, but my Father did thus he thought me a ton about individuals' way of behaving and character and I read a ton of books about psychology" Angela explains smiling

"Alright, so what did you study in school?" Ethan questioned quickly

"I'm not yet in school sir" Angela answered

"Hmm, may I ask why ?" Ethan ask of

"Because there isn't any funds to further my education sir, it's the reason am really buckling down in other to acquire funds for that" Angela describes

"Goodness, am heartbroken about that, are you the one sponsoring yourself in school, what might be said about your parents?" Ethan enquired

"My Dad was the one sponsoring me in school before he lost his employment and as of now my parents are in the town" Angela responded ruefully

"Good gracious, sorry about that, so who are you living with presently?" Ethan inquired of

"All things considered, I was living with my auntie however she drove me out of the house so I stay alone in an apartment at this point" Angela replied

Ethan needed to find out more about Angela yet there was very little time since work begins by 8:00 And so he quickly asks her out for dinner

"Gee, Angela, I would have wanted to examine more about you but I really want to accomplish a few work now and you want to wrap up your chores too so how about we talk after work" Ethan recommended

"Okay sir," Angela answered

Ethan smile as he gaze at Angela

"Would you want to go out with me today for dinner by 5:00 Pm?" Ethan inquire

This was the moment that Angela has been waiting for her entire life, to go out with the man of her fantasies and without a second thought, she replied

"Indeed I would like that sir" Angela immediately replied

"Alright, here is my card, call me by 5:00 Pm and I will come get you or better still we'll meet at Bishops Bar so when you're prepared simply go there and sit tight for me however call me prior to

    After sitting for fifteen minutes without sight of Alfie, he decided to search for him. Upon exiting, he found him in the sitting room. “My goodness, Alfie, where have you been? I have been searching for you everywhere!” Ethan inquired hastily. “I merely stepped outside for some fresh air,” Alfie responded. Ethan approached him. “Alfie, you have saved me numerous times today, and the most crucial instance was when I ran out of fabrications. How did you know my parents were here, and that I was in conversation with them? I hadn’t informed you of their arrival,” Ethan queried. “Well, after you went to check who was at the door, I waited for you to return but you did not come back inside, nor did I hear your voice. I decided to investigate and spotted your parents, so I concealed myself and listened to your conversation. I realised you had run out of prevarications, and I thought it prudent to intervene, as I knew you would not want them to discover your current situation, as it wou

    “I went to collect a file from my office regarding a murder case I will soon be handling. I am yet to learn who my opponent is; that will be revealed in court, but I was on my way home when I encountered you,” Charlotte elaborated. Ethan cleared his throat and immediately asked, “A murder case? Forgive my curiosity, but was it your client who committed the act, or was it the opposite?” “Actually, it was my client who was murdered, and I aim to seek justice for them,” Charlotte clarified. “Understood,” Ethan responded slowly. “Ethan, could you do me a favour?” Charlotte asked. “What kind of favour?” Ethan inquired. “I would like you to attend the court so that you may observe my defence,” Charlotte requested. “I will attempt to be there, but I cannot guarantee it,” Ethan replied. Charlotte jumped with excitement and embraced Ethan. “Thank you!” she exclaimed. “Why are you so thrilled?” Ethan queried. “I simply felt like celebrating,” Charlotte responded. “Very wel

    "Yes, sir," Alfie affirmed. "Hmm, how credible is this information? I have not heard anything about it in the news," Mr. Ronald queried. "Um, perhaps you were not listening to the news on the day it was announced," Alfie replied effortlessly. "Very well, you may have a point, but I did not see it in the newspapers either," Mr. Ronald continued. "Perhaps the papers were sold out before you had the chance to purchase one," Alfie suggested, glancing upwards. Mr. and Mrs. Ronald began to exhibit signs of anxiety and suspicion. "Ethan, what is happening here? Is what Alfie is saying true?" Mrs. Ronald pressed. "Yes, it is true, and it is quite serious. Furthermore, the issue is being addressed," Ethan muttered. "Hmm, very well. What about your savings? I know you maintain a savings account for emergencies such as this," Mr. Ronald asked. Ethan fabricated a response, "I have deposited them in a fixed account and will not be able to access them for six months." "That is quite a lon

    see your car parked outside," Mr. Ronald stated. Ethan fell silent for a moment as he contemplated the most suitable lie to concoct. Ethan stammered, "Um..., um..., actually..." Before Ethan could complete his intended evasion, Alfie, who had been eavesdropping on their conversation, unexpectedly emerged and addressed the question posed to Ethan. "Actually, the car broke down yesterday and is currently in a mechanic's workshop," Alfie stated nonchalantly. Ethan was left speechless when Alfie interjected with his response. Alfie is well-regarded by Ethan's family as his closest friend; upon seeing him, Ethan's parents smiled warmly, and he immediately embraced them. Alfie promptly saluted, "Welcome, sir, welcome, ma'am." "Thank you, Alfie," they both replied in unison. "It is indeed a delightful surprise," Alfie remarked. "Yes, in fact, we intended to pay Ethan an unplanned visit at his residence, but the situation did not unfold as we anticipated. We were not even meant to a

    our son, he did not mention anything of the sort," Mrs. Ronald noted. "I do not think Solomon was deceiving us; I see no reason for him to lie to us at our age. Furthermore, I advise you to exercise a bit of patience until we reach Alfie's house; then we will ascertain whether Solomon was indeed playing a prank," Mr. Ronald responded. "Very well," Mrs. Ronald murmured. It took Mr. and Mrs. Ronald an hour to reach Alfie's house. Upon their arrival, they knocked but received no response. "Are you certain this is the correct address?" Mrs. Ronald asked. "Indeed, it is, but I am perplexed as to why there is no response," Mr. Ronald replied. "I believe we should knock again," Mrs. Ronald suggested. They knocked once more but still received no answer. "Hmm, it appears that no one is home," Mr. Ronald remarked. "Let us not jump to conclusions just yet, dear," Mrs. Ronald suggested. Mrs. Ronald then noticed a doorbell beside the door. "Um, dear, I believe we ought to ring the door

    Therefore, I would like you to inform the bank manager of my situation," Steven requested. "Is that truly necessary?" Barrister Robert questioned. "Yes, although I am aware the bank manager may take pleasure in my unfortunate circumstances, as he holds me in disdain. Nevertheless, I do not care," Steven elucidated. "Steven, may I offer advice as a friend rather than as your barrister?" Barrister Robert asked. "Of course, you may," Steven replied. "I would advise against informing your bank manager or colleagues about this case. Given that it is a murder charge and you just mentioned that the bank manager harbours animosity towards you, it would be prudent to keep this information private. If he does not hear from you, he may assume you resigned due to his disdain, which may be the preferable outcome," Barrister Robert suggested. After contemplating Barrister Robert's counsel for a few moments, Steven agreed, "I believe you are correct, Barrister. I will follow your advice.
