I thought you had never ask, you always seemed uninterested in my affairs" Darth grinned and Ethan's face contorted into a frown. "Answer my question"he demanded."you've forgotten so soon? Well, I might as well remind you, I've been awarded a new position." Darth smirked stroking his chin.Ethan's expression turned sour as he shot back, "You weren't awarded, you pushed your way there. So what does that have to do with my question?" he asked losing his patience."It's a business conference, isn't it? I think I have the right to be here just as you are" Darth replied flashing a wicked grin.Ethan looked slightly confused as he retorted, "You're no businessman, you don't even own a company." But Darth's grin only grew as he countered, "Are you so sure about that?" he asked and Ethan shook his head in annoyance, why was he even wasting his time having a conversation with this man, he turned around and began to walk away. But as he walked off, Darth's parting words hung in the air like a

Immediately he spoke, Ethan walked towards them as they both watched in shock. Mel looked the most confused as he was the least person she expected to save her from Leah's beration."You permitted her? Leah asked In disbelieve."Yes I did, any problem with that?" Ethan asked looking over her shoulders."N..o... No. Leah replied in between stutters as she walked away feeling humiliated by Ethan's glare. "Miss Andrae, he called as he turned to face Mel. Meet me in my office." Ethan said before walking towards his office.Mel nodded her head slightly wondering what he was planning to say to her. She followed behind him hoping that it would not be another series of blame.Immediately she walked into his office, she began to apologize "Sir I'm really sorry, I had to...""You escorted Maya to the airport right?" He asked and she nodded thankful that he understood her reason for coming late, but how did he know though?."It's fine for you to do that for your friend but you need to at least

Her surprise grew, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of apprehension. Was this just a friendly gesture, or was there something more to it? As Liam approached their table, she tried to read his expression for any clues, but he was smiling in his usual affable manner. Nevertheless, Mel couldn't shake off the nagging feeling that something was off. Meanwhile, Ethan observed Mel's reaction with interest, trying to decipher what was going on. He too noticed Liam's unusual accessory and wondered what it meant. As Liam greeted them and took a seat, Ethan couldn't resist asking, "So, Liam, what's with the flowers?" Liam chuckled and replied, "Just a small surprise for Mel; I heard she's been doing amazing work lately, and to congratulate her on anchoring the new shoe project," Liam said while grinning and observing Mel."With all this knowledge, you're probably now supervising the shoe department and not our dear clothes anymore." Ethan joked, and they all laughed."Well, I have to be

Lisa sat in her apartment, staring at her phone for what seemed like the hundredth time that day. It had been three days since she arrived in the country, and still, there was no call from Ethan. She couldn't understand why he wouldn't reach out to her after all these years when she finally came to live at Jenovia.With a heavy sigh, Lisa stood up and picked up her car keys from the table. She had had enough of waiting around for Ethan to reach out to her. She made her way out of the apartment and walked towards her car. As she drove towards LIM, her mind raced with thoughts of Ethan. When they first met in the past, he had always acted distant but he wasn't heartless, so she had managed to find a way to relate with him. However, after high school, they had lost touch, and she only found out about his new position as the President of LIM through the news. Coincidentally, her family had to relocate to Jenovia due to her father's new political position. She had hoped that being in the

As night descended, the office grew dimmer, and Ethan remained seated at his desk with his gaze fixed on the computer screen in front of him. Twelve long hours had passed since he had arrived at work, and his mind began to wander. Despite having attended numerous meetings and responding to all his pending emails, he found himself distracted, unable to shake off the weight of his thoughts. He sifted through papers he didn't have to read, trying to avoid thinking about the situation at hand. Checking the time, he realized it was already past 10 pm. and he needed to leave, as Butler William would worry if he stayed any longer. Ethan grabbed his suitcase, ready to call it a day.Just as he was about to leave, his phone rang. Jace was calling back with some information he had found. Ethan listened closely as Jace explained what he had uncovered so far. Although there were only a few clues, Ethan felt relieved to have some progress in the case. Jace promised to keep digging and complete the
