6- Don't Leave

Ethan was surprised by Chris' absence and not attending the meeting

"Where's Chris?!"

Ethan added in question after entering the conference room

The staff looked at each other before one of them spoke nervously

" He left "

"Without telling me?!!!"

"We don't know, sir. He left the company after he left your office."

"Okay...let's start now."

Ethan discusses a new deal and distributes tasks to everyone and then gets up and goes back to his office

He started calling Chris but his phone was switched off

[This bastard is going to the club now... he'll be drinking all day... I'll have to go get him]

muttered annoyed

He started to finish his work quickly to go

Jenny opened her eyes, staring at her watch

"I fell asleep, I didn't realize it"

She got up and changed her clothes. She wanted to go out

She went downstairs to meet her mother

"Where are you leaving now?!"

" to the city "

"It's 6 pm Jenny, when will you come back if you go now?!"

" I do not know "

"Hey baby, I know your dad is no longer with us, but that doesn't mean you should be so reckless."

"I'm leaving"

That's all she wanted to say before she left the house

She arrived in town at eight o'clock.

Ethan left for the club knowing Chris was there

"This bastard won't change."

He blinked softly after seeing him drinking surrounded by girls

Everyone turned away from him when Ethan approached standing in front of him quietly looking at him and put his hand in his pocket

"Hey where are you going?"

Chris said drunk, then raised his eyes to find Ethan standing in front of him

"Drink without me, traitor."

He approached and took the cup from his hand and took it

"What brings you here, you arrogant..."

"Haha, the drunken episode has begun, and as usual you utter nonsense, and the second day you tell me that you don't remember anything."

"Mr Ethan Wells is an idiot yelling at everyone... haha... I'm your friend... and you scream at me, huh, you bastard! Who are you, sometimes you act like an angel and in the end your actions prove that you are hell itself!"

Ethan smiled sideways, staring at the empty cup he passed between his fingers

"You left today and came here without telling me."

"Why… do I mean something to you… you don't even consider me your friend… I was just a worker at one of your damned companies."

"No, you are an important person in my life."

"Because I bear your anger...I bear everything you do to me, although I grieve to treat you...I know that my father is the driver of your family....You gave us a lot and I am really grateful, but enough screaming enough screaming at everyone Ethan, no one will tolerate you as I do."

Some looked at Chris as he added to the emotion with calm Ethan

Chris laughed sarcastically, reeling in front of the other after standing up

Ethan grabbed the bottle from the table and took it, staring ahead with a wandering mind, letting the other say what he wanted. At least he knew Chris had done nothing wrong. .....

Jennie called Yuna and told her to meet her for a drink

Yona told her that she would be late because of her work, she would finish and come to her

Jenny sat quietly drinking until she got drunk

She did not pay attention to the eyes that devour her body

Those eyes you stare at with lust

After a while, two of them approached

"Um, looks like you're here on your own."

One of them added a smile to his side after winking at the others

"Then... what do you think of spending a night with us, believe me, we will make it an unforgettable night"

"Hmmm... get out of my face now."

She got up to leave with staggering steps, she saw her blurred, head about to explode from a headache.

Someone grabbed her hand and then pulled her to him violently

"Why don't you come baby, I'll give you everything you want!"

" Get away from me"

She screamed loudly and then pushed him

He came close and grabbed her by the hair, pulling her tightly

"Did you forget yourself, bitch?!..... Really being polite to people like you doesn't work."

"Oh..ha..behaving with idiots like you..it brings results, and do you know what it is?!!!.....you are so mean"

"Haha, I like your tongue, little one.... I'd love to hear my name from him so much...my cat."

Before he takes her to a room...

Before he went, a hand was placed on his own to prevent him

He pulled her by the hand to rest her head on his chest

" What do you do?! "

"This girl is with me..."

"Hey, you're lying."

"You'd better not let me repeat it again!!"

He blinked sharply, with his terrified look

The two slowly walked back until they left

After they left, he left her and went back to his seat

He doesn't know why he helped her, he just didn't want anyone to touch her!!

She opened her eyes sluggishly, smiling happily

She ran to him clinging to him by the arm like children

" What do you do?! "

He was surprised when she sat next to him

" Thanks "

"It looks like you're going to die... our third meeting, you're polite to me!!."

blink softly

"Do you want to get drunk with me?!"

"Aren't you enough?!"

She shook her head in denial

He tried to push her away but she doesn't move away and tells him that she wants to sleep leaning on his arm

Ethan stared at his watch, it was late

Chris woke up a little drunk when he drank his coffee

"I wish I wasn't offended by my words."

He smiled sarcastically for Ethan to do the same

"Believe me, you did!!"

"Oh...I don't know what I said but...whatever I tell you I don't mean, believe me..."

"It's okay, Chris... you should leave now."

"So what about you?!"

"I'm going to drink a little and then go home."

"Don't get drunk!! understand"

"Don't worry, no one will call you and tell you to come get me this time, I'll make sure I get home on my feet."

Before Kris left, he spotted a girl sleeping on the couch next to Ethan.... rubbing his eye as he closed and opened it.

Hit his head lightly to wake up

"Looks like I'm still so drunk....I can't believe you're letting a girl sit next to you!! It can't..ha I shouldn't have been drinking so much I'm fantasizing now..I swear my head is going to explode..I'm leaving Take care of yourself"

Ethan just shook his head lightly

He doesn't allow a girl to sit next to him so girls leave when you see him unless he chooses one himself

He got up to leave but this little hand grabbed the edge of his suit

She opened her eyes lazily

" where are you going ?! " yawned

He looked at her face, then looked back at her hand holding his

He shook his hand from hers, then turned his back to leave

Jenny stood up quickly before he got out of her sight and ran after him

" wait "

Ethan stood... when she wrapped her arms around him, hugging him from behind

".you will leave..me."

He sighed in annoyance before answering her sarcastically

"Huh, why!! am I not the most despicable person you have ever seen?"

She stood in front of him with heavy steps, struggling to keep her eyes open

"You..are not a jerk..mm..you helped me a while ago"

"I really want to see your reaction when the traces of drunkenness are removed from you and you see me in front of you.... It will be the best dramatic scene in history."

Before she loses her balance and falls, he pulls her hand against his body

Lifting his head up, he exhales tiredly

Moments until he felt something wet his shirt

He made her stand up and stare at her features

He felt a throbbing pulse as his eyes met his own

"Why are you crying?!"

question with interest

"Because I don't want you to leave... please."

Eathn was surprised by her speech

She took a step back, before she fell, he had wrapped his hand around her body holding her

"You don't know how much I want to throw you right now but..... I can't!!!! and I don't know why!!"

He blinked softly, looking at her with a smile on her small features

"Dad....don't leave please..everyone will bully me without you you're the only one who helps me every time....lm telling you that I met a rich, fucking cold bastard...."

Ethan closed his eyes, convincing himself not to throw her to the floor

"I can guess that this guy is me!!"

"He was going to kill me.... I can't believe until this moment that he would have done this....Despite his method, I looked well into his eyes.... Like you told me, I should look with one eye." others so that I know what they are!!"

"And what did you know about him, you idiot?"

He sarcastically continued walking to his house, which was a few steps away

"I miss your scolding me, Dad. If talking to you would mean scolding me, I will bear all of this with an open heart….. about this man. I think he is… not bad, that's why I went too far with him. I knew he wouldn't hurt me, he needs someone I don't know who but he misses someone maybe he misses himself!! Angry, sad. All his feelings are negative.... He pissed me off so much his cold reaction... He doesn't care about something like a piece of ice despite this he didn't I'm afraid of him and his threats... I hesitated a lot to argue with him, I just wanted to let him know that the poor are not nobody like he said... When he pulled out his gun and shot me... All of this evaporated, I thought he would shoot me once another and end my life was angry...was scary"

Ethan's calm features have not changed, he feels comfortable speaking

"Do you hate him?!"

"Maybe if he wasn't rich, I'd like him."

He smiled mockingly at her words

"It's not like you are different from others!!"

mumbled softly

He bit his lip lightly before asking seriously

"So is he a cold-hearted beast!!?"

He wondered even though he knew the answer

"Yeah....."
