Meanwhile, Ethan sat in his office, engrossed in his thoughts when a knock on the door interrupted his solitude. "Come in," he called out, and his assistant, Charles, walked in with an eager expression on his face.
"What is it?" Ethan inquired, curious about Charles' enthusiasm."Sir, the court case, Darth has withdrawn from it," Charles exclaimed, his face beaming with excitement."Is that so?
