CHAPTER 41: CHEERS TO MY FUTURE PROMOTIONS

"Hmm, very well, enlighten me on how you executed this," Jane insisted. "Well, I had his computer hacked, which provided me with easy access to his information. I reviewed his client list, and one of the VIP clients caught my attention. Consequently, I embezzled a substantial sum from the VIP client’s account into Ethan's account, ensuring he was not notified of the transfer. Additionally, I made certain that he could not access his computer for twenty-four hours; had he done so, my plan would have been compromised," Steven elaborated. "Wow, my younger brother possesses a remarkable competency of which I am proud," Jane remarked. Susan then interjected, "Alright, enough of this discussion; let us celebrate this victory." "Indeed, we should celebrate now," Jane agreed. They raised their glasses in a toast. "Cheers to a new level," Susan toasted. "Cheers to Steven's victory," Jane added. "Cheers to my accomplishments and future promotions," Steven toasted to himself. I

CHAPTER 42: MY CONSCIENCE IS CLEAR

What is happening here, and why are you posing such an absurd question?" Anna retorted rudely. Alfie leaned in and whispered to Ethan, urging him to provide her with a brief explanation regarding the nature of his inquiry. "I was wrongfully accused of defrauding a VIP customer at work, resulting in my dismissal. I came to ascertain whether you had any connection to this matter," Ethan clarified. Anna coughed and cleared her throat. "I remain perplexed; let me ensure I understand correctly: you were framed, you lost your job, and you suspect me of being involved?" Ethan nodded, swallowing hard. At that moment, Anna raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, "And why would you even consider that I would do something like that to you?" "Because we had some misunderstandings in the past, primarily due to Angela," Ethan explained. Anna took a deep breath and responded, "Ethan, to be frank, I genuinely do not know what you are referring to. I must confess that I was completely unawar

CHAPTER 43: HAVE HOPE, YOU’LL FIND ANOTHER JOB

pulled Ethan back to safety. "Be careful!" Harper exclaimed as he dragged Ethan to the side of the road. Startled, Ethan began to breathe rapidly. Harper inquired, "What is troubling you so deeply that you would risk your life? Are you aware that you nearly got hit by a car?" Ethan lost his composure and collapsed into tears, akin to a child, seated on the ground. In his distress, he recounted to Harper how he had been framed and subsequently dismissed from his job. Though Harper was unfamiliar with Ethan, he felt a profound sense of compassion for him. "I am truly sorry to hear that you lost your job, but you must not consider taking such drastic measures. Your life is far more valuable than any position you have lost. If you were to die now, the job would continue, and the person responsible for your misfortune would be out there, enjoying themselves. You must gather your strength," Harper advised. "You truly do not understand. They have taken everything from me, leavi

CHAPTER 44: UNEMPLOYED AND ODOROUS MAN

and replied, “Ethan, please calm down.” Henry interjected, “Angela, who is this unemployed and odorous man?” Ethan was taken aback upon hearing Henry refer to him as unemployed. “So, Angela, you have been informing everyone that I am unemployed, have you?” Ethan asked, his anger evident. “And why would I do such a thing?” Angela retorted. Frustrated, Ethan pushed Henry, who, in turn, became irate and was about to retaliate when Angela intervened. “Henry! Stop it! Ethan, please leave; you have caused me enough embarrassment for today. I will speak with you later,” Angela instructed. Henry, clearly irritated, remarked, “Angela, when you are ready to tell me who this pig is, you know where to find me,” before storming out. “Since when did you begin to give me orders? You even had the audacity to disclose my personal circumstances to this fool. His mention of knowing where to find him, which implies that you have been seeing him behind my back. Is this truly how you conduct yourse

CHAPTER 45: NEMESIS CAUGHT UP WITH STEVEN

“You know I do not drink, and even if I did, it would not be to the extent of intoxication. She compelled me to do so; the thought of her seeking favour from me while I am now without purpose made me feel like she was looking for a chance to discard me. I must say, I now believe you; you were right about her from the beginning. All she wanted was my money, nothing more,” Ethan elaborated. “Ethan, please calm down. You are overreacting. We both know how much Angela cares for you. I believe you should answer her calls and allow her the opportunity to explain herself. Although I am quite upset with her, I recognise that your current state has clouded your judgement; this too shall pass,” Alfie reassured Ethan. “If only I could discover who has betrayed me, it might provide me with some solace. Even if I do not regain my job, I will ensure that I exact my revenge on the individual responsible, making them suffer more than I have,” Ethan lamented. “Come here, my friend. I can see you ne

CHAPTER 46: I AM STILL IN MY PREVIOUS POSITION

"Can you believe it? It has been a month since I orchestrated Ethan's dismissal, yet I am still in my previous position despite my hard work. The bank manager does not seem to notice my efforts, or perhaps I should say he dislikes me, as I am emulating everything Ethan used to do," Steven articulated. "That is unfortunate. What do you intend to do now?" Jane questioned. "I am uncertain; if I had a solution, I would not be calling you," Steven responded. "Calm yourself. Since you have stated that you are undertaking all the tasks Ethan performed that previously benefitted him, and it has not yielded the same results for you, I suggest you inquire with Ethan about his approach. He may be employing strategies of which you are unaware, and you might be overlooking something significant," Jane advised. "That would be challenging, dear sister," Steven replied. "Why do you say that? There is no harm in reaching out. You could either call Ethan or visit him if speaking over the phon

CHAPTER 47: CHARLOTTE! MY EX-GIRLFRIEND

work with the Supreme Court," Charlotte replied. Steven was amused by Charlotte's transformation into a lawyer, recalling how unremarkable she had been during their high school years, often overlooked even by teachers. "Goodness, Charlotte, how did you achieve this? It is truly remarkable!" Steven exclaimed. "It is all thanks to God. I transferred to another school, which allowed me to focus on my studies. I left behind distractions that had hindered my academic progress, and I became quite studious. That is how I reached this point in my life," Charlotte elucidated. "That is splendid. Please provide me with your contact number so that I may reach out to you whenever I encounter a problem. From this moment on, you shall be my lawyer; however, I would like to observe your courtroom performance first," Steven stated. "That is not an issue. I am currently handling a high-profile case; perhaps you could attend and observe on Thursday," Charlotte suggested. "Certainly, I shall be ava

CHAPTER 48: SEEING IS BELIEVING

Moreover, we do not know where to begin." Charlotte was rendered speechless. Ethan promptly added, "Charlotte, Steven is correct; at this moment, I do not have any funds." Charlotte reassured him, "It is perfectly fine; do not concern yourself with that. I will take care of it for the sake of old times, and I will do it pro bono." Upon hearing this, Angela's mood shifted, and she cast an unfavourable glance at Ethan, which he noticed. "Charlotte, please do not worry about assisting me. Thank you," Ethan expressed his gratitude. Meanwhile, Steven was eager to learn about Ethan's secret regarding his promotions but felt it was not the appropriate moment to discuss it. He resolved to defer the conversation until their next meeting, even though he had not received a promotion at work since Ethan's dismissal, he felt content that Ethan was no longer a factor in the workplace. Angela remained silent. After a lengthy discussion with Ethan, Steven realised that he would not have the c

CHAPTER 49: EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT

"Oh my goodness, are you serious?" Angela asked. "Yes, my dear, and I stood there in stunned silence," Ethan admitted. "How was it that you were able to open the door? Was it not locked?" Angela inquired. "The door was indeed unlocked; I suspect they did not expect anyone to arrive at that moment, or perhaps he simply neglected to lock it," Ethan inferred. "What happened next?" Angela queried. "When I opened the door, Jennifer immediately saw me, gasped, and began pleading for forgiveness. Conversely, Edward was so overwhelmed with shame that he could not meet my gaze or utter a word," Ethan recounted. "Naturally, he had ample reason to feel ashamed. What actions did you take following your discovery?" Angela inquired with a laugh. "I did nothing; I was too heartbroken. Instead, I merely shook my head in disbelief, glaring at both of them with intense resentment," Ethan revealed. "I empathise with your pain, but did she offer any explanation for her infidelity?

CHAPTER 50: MARK MY WORDS, ONE DAY YOU WILL NEED MY ASSISTANCE

the financial resources to investigate who framed me. Why can you not simply let it go?" Ethan asked. "I did not come here for that," Charlotte replied. Ethan blinked in surprise and queried, "Then why are you here if not concerning my situation?" "I am here because of our past, and I wish to discuss what happened between us and explore the possibility of making amends," Charlotte stated. Ethan was amused and he exclaimed, "What! You cannot be serious. There is no 'us,' so please return home." "Ethan, please refrain from being rude and allow me to explain," Charlotte pleaded. "For what reason? Is it only now that you think of me after you vanished without a trace? You blocked my contacts and refused to communicate with me. Now you stand here asking me to refrain from being rude?" Ethan lamented, his frustration evident. "I understand your feelings, and you are justified in feeling that way. However, I did not leave intentionally; it was a sudden decision. It was difficult for m
