Sarah's POV"They're really annoying," Ethan said beside me, his complaint sounding more like he sympathised with them and tried to cheer me up by cursing them.I nodded my head in agreement at his words, which did speak the truth. "They don't seem to have anything else to do but annoy."Ethan led me over. He separated himself from the crowd that had led him to scatter away from me. He handed me a drink that he had gotten from the waiter, who was offering a wide variety of cocktails there. Then, I heard someone speaking on loudspeaker at the podium in the centre of the party.All eyes turned to the man speaking. He first opened with a greeting and all manner of pleasantries until he got to the reason why the party was being held. "This party is being held by the Murrey family for a purpose. They want us to witness and celebrate the election of the heir to the Murrey family."The hall began to sound noisy with whispers from the guests who were talking incoherently, but I could feel gl

Alex's pov"Ah, shit! How did this all happen?" I pushed the door of the house with full force before entering and forcing it open. Behind me I knew my mom was following but I didn't care, I was no longer going to try to hold myself back from controlling my emotions just to be careful because my mom was there. I don't care if she calls me ignorant or whatever. I no longer care.I turned around and looked at her with annoyance, this decision had been authorized by grandpa and of course mom would know. "Suddenly Ethan?" I said the name in front of him with the worst expression I could show him, my chest was still heaving furiously. "Ethan's in charge."My head was like being hit right now with something that was very difficult for me to accept. That jerk was the leader while I had no clear status. "How can he?!" I rebelled in front of the woman whose face was also messed up and looked gloomy. "Mom told me that he would never be a part of the Murray family and that I had nothing to worr

Alex’s POV"You'll be in trouble soon, Ethan." I smiled proudly at myself in the mirror.Today, I contacted most of the company's shareholders and directors, talking them into siding with me and my mom to have the election of the new president re-run. I can't let Ethan take over the situation. He has no right to my seat.I had dreamed of it for a long time, believing that I would become the absolute decision-maker of the company, replacing my grandfather. Ethan didn't deserve it. He wasn't part of the full Murrey family, and his blood wasn't as pure as mine. He was an unwanted child, a child from an unworthy relationship.While my mother is the child of a legitimate wife, my grandmother clearly influenced the growth of the group built by the Murray family, so clearly, my mother has more rights. My mother was more deserving of claiming everything the Murray family had and deserved to inherit.I turned away from the glass in front of me, picked up my tie, and started putting it on. I lo

Alex POVIt's a good thing these people will side with me soon. They'll know that I'm more fit to lead than Ethan, who certainly doesn't know anything about business. Uncle Dave needs to corner him even more. I'm really looking forward to being the elder in the company and having that kind of influence to pressure Ethan and make Ethan falter."So indirectly, you want to call me incompetent?" Ethan responded, his eyes looking flat. All I could see was that he was trying to dominate with his attitude, trying to get them to bend the knee to his will.It was annoying. Who did he think he was? Why would someone like him be that arrogant? What was he trying to brag about?He looked straight at Uncle Dave, who was trying not to be affected by her aura. "You're talking as if I don't know anything about business."I can't let Uncle Dave's attack go to waste and make him feel like he's fighting alone there. The truth was that many disagreed with his leadership, and Ethan needed to know about th

Alex’s PovNo, no, no. No... there's no way he has that kind of ability.My heart beating rapidly, I began to frantically stare at him. I subconsciously felt the fear of completely losing that place as a position I could have.It shouldn't be like this. He should be sliding because his educational background and experience were not favourable, but again, he seemed to blink the situation from every attack I had prepared to take her down."This can't be." I stared at him wide-eyed.At his desk, Ethan seemed to be sitting casually and staring arrogantly. "What's impossible?" His tone of voice sounded playful to me, like he was talking to a child he was teasing. My hands clenched into fists, and my jaw hardened.Damn that, Ethan! Mom should have made him completely disappear if she felt he was a threat to us.Now look at what he did to secretly make us lose what was rightfully ours.The file was forcefully snatched from my hands by a stranger who looked like his subordinate. He took it an

Ethan’s POV"What did you say?" Alex glared at me, from his eyes I could see anger and resentment rising there.Much to my amusement, my hand pulled his shoulder closer. I patted and smoothed his collar. There was no need for me to be aggressive like him by pulling his collar and speaking rudely out loud in front of the reasonable people who were currently busy assessing the candidate who wanted to become the president of the Reserve and me, who had officially taken office as the president.There was no need to be as primitive as an ancient animal like Alex just to show that I had influence and power. I chuckled and patted his shoulder. The poor baby who was always with his mother must be very sad and disappointed right now. "I said I could fire you whenever I wanted, Alex." This was my warning to her.This is not a warning for him to improve his attitude and become more self-aware, but rather a warning for him to prepare himself because sooner or later, I will destroy him. I've been

Ethan's Pov"Tell me what you mean?" the ignorant fool who didn't seem to accept it chased after me. He stopped me just as I got into the car and opened the door.His hand pushed the car door frame back closed, his action then made me sharpen my gaze on his hand leaning on the door frame then, my eyes moved up and glanced at him. "I mean, I'm going to kick you out."I knew that he wasn't smart but I didn't think that he was that stupid to understand what I was saying to him, let alone my reason for telling her to clean up his stuff. There's no way I could have asked him to stay with me for that reason. It really doesn't make sense. I will never become friendly with her, or Diana, ever again.Alex has never been an adorable nephew to me, even when he was just born. He was never visible to me when he was a baby, but as he grew and toddled, his annoying attitude did appear.I don't know what his mother said to influence his brain's reaction to me, but that little toddler knew how to igni

Sarah's pov"Oh... what happened?" My body was pushed back as Ethan suddenly came over and hugged me.What I saw earlier when I heard the sound of the elevator opening, I could see his face looking grim and heavy, he looked exhausted and I remember smiling at him. I didn't expect him to hug me so tightly without any reason or explanation.I'm sure there wasn't anyone watching at the moment, and he had to pretend to be intimate with me. We didn't need to show our harmonious relationship. But maybe that guy is tired right now. He hugged me so tightly while burying his face between my shoulders."Are you okay, Ethan?" I gently rubbed the big man's back, comforting him, who was probably very tired because there were so many things he needed to do. "Do you want me to get you something?"Maybe some warm tea would help him feel better. I remember I kept chamomile that I used to brew into tea. Sometimes, I would drink it when my head was a bit throbbing, or I was tired, with a lot of thoughts
