Ben happily left Gwen and head to his office. He started planning on how he was going to sleep with her and where they should meet. He knew that the Croydon company has hotels and clubs everywhere. He wondered. He opened the office door and looked around, there was no sign of Peter anywhere. All he found was a box, a red box. "Peter?" He called out. He kept looking around because it was starting to get creepy. "Peter?" He called again and this time, he was closer to the table. He placed the cup of coffee on the table and looked at the box. He slowly touched the cap of the cap and wanted to open it. He immediately heard something sparking behind him. He turned his head and saw something burning from behind. He fell on the floor and dragged himself to the corner of the office. It was burning and it was starting to turn to fire. He started sweating and murmuring words. He rocked himself slowly while the fire kept burning at the corner of his office. Peter immediately walked closer t
Wilson drove off to his house while Ethan entered into the house. The butler opened the door for him. "Thank you" he said. The man smiled. Ethan saw his sister, Kelly, dragging a luggage down the stairs. "Shouldn't you get a guard or someone to help with that?" Ethan asked. Kelly saw Ethan behind her and sighed deeply."I didn't see you there. Shouldn't you help me or something?" She asked in response. Ethan rolled his eyes. He wanted to leave his sister but, he just helped her drag the huge luggage down the stairs. They reached the last floor. Ethan stopped to catch his breath. "What's in this?" He asked. "Clothes, make up, jewelleries... Other stuff" she said, looking confused. "Where are you going with those stuff?" He asked. "Oh, it's not mine...""It's mine!" Chloe said from upstairs. Ethan shook his head in disappointment. "I should have known it was yours" he mumbled She was dressed fully, ready to leave. She had her sunglasses on."Thanks for helping me little broth
Michelle sat in front of the mirror, getting ready to leave the house. She was meeting with her friends later today. They were just going to chat and drink wine.They finally made her come out of the house after Evan's death. She looked at the red dress she was wearing and her beautiful face. She was just wearing a light make up. Christopher came from behind and kissed her cheek. "What are you thinking about? You already look beautiful" He asked."Can I really go out? I just lost my son. Should I be out chatting and drinking wine?" She asked, softly. She lowered her head, like she wanted to cry."Hey, look at me" he said. She slowly raised her head and stared into his eyes. "I also lost Evan and I swear, I miss him. But, we have to move on. We can't forget him because he'll forever be in our heart. I'm not stopping you from mourning him, but Evan won't like if you keep sulking and thinking about him"She smiled weirdly and nodded."Of course, I shouldn't cry. I'm strong" she said.
Since it was Friday, the day ended early. Ethan was already tired from trying to finish all of those bulky work early. He leaned back on the chair, trying to rest when Wilson entered his office. "The advertising company is ready. We just need to come up with an advertising strategy""That's for the advertising team to do. Tell them there'll be a meeting on Monday by 4pm. No one should be late" he said. But, he was writing something else on the paper. The meeting was really 12pm, after lunch. He didn't want Ben and his assistant to get that information and ruin the meeting like they did today's meeting. "Understood sir, besides that. Which model are we using for the advertising?" Wilson asked. "I could have used my sister but, she already left the country and is busy with her shoot. I'll find the models, we can't use the company model" Ethan replied. Wilson nodded and looked at his wrist watch. "We should go home now. You must be tired""Of course, I am" Ethan said and stretched hi
Ethan already prepared to sleep early when he heard a knock on the door. He sat up and frowned. He was lazy to walk up to the door, so he yelled. "Who is it?" He asked. "Um, it is I... Your grandfather has asked to see you" the maid spoke. Ethan furrowed his eyebrows, as confusion washed over him. He hasn't spoken to his grandfather in ages. But now, he was asking after him. He only remembered seeing him the last time at the last family gathering.He threw his legs off the bed and slipped his foot into his slippers. Lazily, he walked out of the room and appeared at his grandfather's room. He knocked the door and yawned, covering his mouth. "Come in Ethan" his grandfather spoke from inside. He gathered strength and entered the room. "Hello grandfather" he greeted. "Ethan... It's great to see you. Come in" his grandfather said, walking around the room. Even if he was old, he still looked fit. He closed the windows himself. He even walked to his table and fetched a cup of water fo
Gwen arrived at the club already. She stood in front, seeing the naked ladies and other men hooking up and smooching in front. She squeezed her face in disgust as it made her remember her former boss who gave her a job in exchange for her body. She bit her lower lips and clenched her fist. "It's not new to you Gwen. If he asks for it, give it to him" she said to herself and walked in. She walked pass the huge men by the door. One of the stopped her and check a picture on his phone. "She's the one" he said. "I'll take her to him!" The second one added and stretched his hand. "This way, miss" he said. "Huh?" Gwen asked. "He has been waiting for you" he said. It was then Gwen knew they were talking about Ben. She wore a fake smile and entered into the club. The loud music enveloped her. The sight of naked ladies dancing on poles, exposing their tits and bare ass to the men who were getting tempted to touch them. She took her gaze off their body and walked up the stairs till she
Ethan gently dragged Gwen to the kitchen and helped her with her burnt finger. Gwen didn't expect that type of help from her boss. She just kept smiling and looking at him. She gripped the tip of her gown, thinking of how to thank him for last night. She knew that if he hadn't come on time, Ben would have tried to hurt her or even do the unthinkable."Thank you for saving me from your cousin, Ethan" she finally spoke. "I did what I had to do, as your boss" he replied, without looking at her. Gwen felt awkward. "I know your mom didn't know you were my boss and she thought I was your girlfriend..." He let go of her hand. "Well, she's wrong. I apologize for that. You're not my girlfriend, you're just an employee of mine and it's my duty to save my employees. There's nothing between us Gwen. You don't need to feel comfortable around me" he said and walked away. Gwen gazed at her finger and left after him. She went back to the dinning table and ate silently. She watched as Mr and Mr
Everyone got to the house after dropping Gwen's grandmother at the hospital. It was a long ride. Michelle helped her move into her new room. "Again, I welcome you to the Croydon's manor" she said. Gwen smiled. "Thanks ma'am. I promise to leave after all is over""Oh, it's okay. You can stay here. I'm sure Ethan will be happy" Michelle said. Gwen just lowered her head and blushed secretly. "You have access to a balcony and also to the kitchen. You have access to everywhere just don't go to Christopher's office" "Of course ma'am"Michelle said and wanted to leave. She remembered something. "Don't say a word about the investigation to Ethan. I don't want him to get worried""I won't" Michelle placed a hand on her shoulder and finally left. He went to the lobby where Christopher and detective Jones were. "Ben or his father?" Detective Jones asked Christopher.She walked in, hearing that question. "Ginny didn't give me the details but, she told me that Ben came home badly hurt a
