Ethan

I was sitting in the living room in the morning, tapping my fingers on the table as Dave stood in front of me, reading the email. His voice was calm, but what he was saying made me boil inside.

Many investors were pulling out of my company and the stock was dropping fast.

“Damn it,” I cursed quietly.

I knew this would happen. They were trying to destroy me, yeah, I knew that Tina, Alex, and whoever else was working with them were all trying to bring me down. They thought if they ruined my name, I would fall. But they were wrong. I have been through worse so I won’t give up now.

When Dave finished reading, he looked at me with worry in his eyes.

“Boss… I think you need to act fast. If we don’t do something now, it might be too late.”

I didn’t say anything right away. I just leaned back, thinking hard. I had to be smart. There’s always a way to fight back.

Just then, I heard the sound of heels clicking on the floor. I looked up and saw Sonia descending down the stairs.

Why didn't he get on to denying the claims & showing proof of the doctored photos asap, instead of hoping it would all go away? Of course he's losing investors! why is Ethan visiting Celine's dad? He should have told Mr Edwards to come to his office if he wanted to talk. Bad idea Ethan.

  • Mr Billionaire's Regret: Chasing Back My Ex-wife    chapter 220

    Sonia *The End**Four Months Later*I stood quietly by the window, the soft wind brushing against the curtain as I stared at Alex’s photo in my hands. God, I still couldn’t believe he was gone.Tears slipped down my cheeks, one after the other. Yeah, I knew he hurt me… he hurt Ethan but even with all that, I couldn’t bring myself to hate him because Alex wasn’t always a monster. He was once my protector… my friend.During my darkest days, he stood by me, he helped me when no one else did. I will never forget that part of him... Ever.Last month, Ethan and I talked and we agreed to build an orphanage in Alex’s memory. A place for children to feel safe, loved and never forgotten. Just like I wished Alex had felt before he let his demons consume him.Life is truly unimaginable. One moment you’re smiling and the next you’re gasping for air in pain. That’s why in every step we take, we must be very careful because we don’t always get a second chance to fix what we break.“Mommy, are you

    AlexI stared at the grey wall of my cell, empty and cold. I couldn’t sleep, I couldn’t think. My mind was heavy and my chest felt like it carried a mountain.I knew I was not going to come out of this mess. Whether it was a death sentence or life imprisonment, it didn’t matter anymore. My fate is already sealed but there is one thing I needed to do before that judgment came... I have to bury my father.Yes, He may not have been the best man but he is my father, my blood, the only person I have in this world. After thinking all through the night, in the morning, I asked to see Fred.When I walked into his office, he looked up at me, his eyes tired, filled with the kind of pity I never thought I’d see from him. For a second, we were just two old friends again but then the handcuffs reminded me of who I had become.“I want to bury my father,” I said quietly. “Please. I want to bury my father before I am sentenced. It’s the only thing I can do for him now. I know what Is waiting for me

    Ethan I stared at Alex as sweat poured from his forehead, his lips trembled and his entire body looked like it would give out any second. "Good." I smiled inwardly. Let the weight of what he has done crush him.Alex looked from me to the DPO with panic all over his face like a scared child caught red-handed.“Do you still need me to tell you that you are a murderer?” I asked, my voice steady but cold.“It was a mistake,” he muttered, looking at the DPO now. “Please… Fred, it was a mistake. I didn’t mean to…”The DPO just shook his head and let out a deep sigh. He looked torn but I didn’t care about his feelings right now.I stepped forward. “If you still want to keep your badge and your job,” I said to the DPO, my tone sharp, “then do your duty. I want him charged to court first thing tomorrow morning.”The DPO nodded slowly. “Understood.”Alex looked at me with pleading eyes. “Ethan, please… I’m sorry. I lost control. It was a mistake... my father just died... I wasn’t thinking st

    EthanI couldn’t believe it.First, I got a call that Mr. Johnson was dead. That alone knocked the air out of my lungs but before I could even process that shocking news, another message came in that Alex had shot Tina.For a moment, I just stood there, frozen as my phone nearly slipped from my hand.Tina?I couldn't believe it.Yeah, I knew Tina betrayed me. Yes, she turned against me but no matter how much I hated what she did, she is still my sister, my blood. I couldn’t just sit and do nothing.“Get the car ready. Now!” I barked at my driver as I grabbed my jacket and stormed out of the house.The ride to the hospital was a blur. My fists were clenched the whole time. My thoughts were wild. God, What the hell is Alex thinking? How could he do something like that to her?As soon as we arrived, I didn’t waste a second. I marched straight in and spotted a doctor speaking with a nurse.“I need to see Tina Adamson,” I said, barely able to keep the panic out of my voice.The doctor tur

    AlexAfter I deposited my father's body in the morgue, I drove home like a ghost behind the wheel, my bloodied shirt sticking to my skin as my mind replayed everything that happened like a cursed film I couldn’t stop. The silence in the house was unbearable. I changed into fresh clothes, but no matter how many times I scrubbed my hands, I still felt the blood there. My father's blood and Tina’s blood.When I returned to the hospital, I went straight to Tina’s room. When I got there, I met three nurses by her side, checking her vitals and adjusting her drip. They turned when I walked in and gave me a small bow.“Good evening, Mr. Johnson.”“How is she?” I asked quietly. “Has she woken up?”One of them shook her head. “No, sir. But she’s responding to treatment. Her pulse is stable.”I nodded and sighed heavily, pressing my fingers against my temple. That was good news. It had to be but I couldn’t ignore the tightness in my chest.What if she doesn’t make it… ?“God, please don’t let

    Alex's My hands wouldn’t stop shaking as I stared at Tina lying in a pool of her own blood. Her chest rose and fell in shallow gasps, and blood stained the floor like something out of a nightmare. "What have I done?" I murmured, my body drenched with sweat.I quickly shoved the gun back into my waistband, my heart pounding louder than the echo of the gunshot still ringing in my ears. My breath came in short, panicked bursts. This isn't supposed to happen. I didn’t mean to shoot her. I didn’t... I swear I didn’t.The door flung open and a group of doctors and nurses rushed in, their eyes wide in horror.“What happened, Mr. Johnson? We heard a gunshot!” one of the doctors asked, his voice sharp and alert.“I... I don’t have time to explain,” I choked, my throat tightening. “Please. Save her. I can’t lose her too. Please…”The look the doctor gave me said he didn’t fully believe me but he didn’t question further. Two nurses hurried over and gently lifted Tina from the floor. She didn’
