Chapter 74
“Summon all the male workers in the house to the living room now, everyone needs to be questioned” Ethan said.
“Okay Mr Ethan” Javad said.
“Including you Javad” Ethan said, shocking Javad to the bone.
He feels so bad that Ethan doesn’t seem to trust him anymore! And that’s gonna make things more difficult cause obviously he’ll start questioning his every move.
And he had told Morgan to change the plan but Catherine had insisted on taking Irish out of the way first cause she’s being a pain in her ass.
Arusha had entered instead of her and he wouldn’t have mind to kill him alongside Irish but the boy had been smart enough to run out.
Now it seems Ethan lost his trust in him already and obviously Morgan is gonna be mad at him for the plan failure.
Arrrgh!

Ethan finished addressing the male workers and they all left.
Arin and Arusha went to bed already.
“Do you think the person will come to you?” Irish asked.
Ethan had told the workers of the incidence and the perpetrator being in the house, he had threatened the anonymous perpetrator to come to him before he involves the cops.
“I don’t know” Ethan sighed.
“And involving the cops… everything will be spilled to the press” Irish said.
“Exactly! And i hate being in the news. It really sucks! ” Ethan said.
“You don’t have to involve the cops ”
“Your life is at stake here” Ethan said.
“And your reputation is as well… if it gets to the news that your daughter’s nanny almost got killed by.. by an anonymous person who obviously stays in this house, it’s gonna soil your reputation and not only that, but also affect your businesses all over the world ”
“It’s not like loosing business partners would affect me….”Ethan shrugged.
He has enough money to last him for his lifetime without even working anymore.
“I know but i won’t be the reason for that. Let’s just let it go. I’m sure whoever it is would have seen the handwriting on the wall and won’t try such again” Irish said.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“You always want to let go of everything, it’ll be selfish of me to protect my own business while putting your life at stake” Ethan said.
“Mr Ethan, involving the cops might truly soil your reputation, I’m going to start protecting Irish from now, the incidence won’t repeat itself anymore. I promise” Carl said and Ethan sigheddeeply.
“It’s still hard to believe someone’s after your life in this house…” Ethan said.
“It’s all so confusing, I’m scared out of my wits” Irish said.
“Of course you should be. Im so sorry you’re in this mess”
“No, you shouldn’t be please. Going through all these is not even enough to pay you for all you’ve done for me”
“I don’t want you to feel okay with everything that happens to you in this house just because you feel indebted to me okay?” Ethan said.
Irish nodded.
“Go meet Gladys to show you to your room and i made sure it’s opposite Irish’s. Have you gotten your luggages?” Ethan asked.
“No Mr Ethan, i will after i check out my room” Carl said.
“Ohh… okay” Ethan said.

“Have you heard from Doc Luc?” Irish asked.
“No, he hasn’t called and i called him, he’s not picking up neither is he replying to my messages”
“Really?”
“Yeah”
“He.. might be busy but isn’t mum’s legs surgery…”
“Exactly why i wanted to hear from him, i just hope everything’s fine” Ethan said.
“Me too” Irish said.
“Let’s go to sleep, I’ll try to contact him in the morning, I’m sure he would have solved whatever issue it is and be rest assured, you’ll be fine okay?” Ethan said and Irish nodded.

“Let’s get you dressed for school Arin” Irish said to Arin who was reluctant.
“What’s wrong?” Irish asked knowing Arin isn’t a kid who doesn’t like going to school.
She would have been in the bathroom by the time she comes into her room.
“What’s going on? Why are there bodyguards suddenly at our door, why?” Arin asked.”I just felt we have to strengthen our security ” Ethan walked in before Irish could answer and she sighed in relief.
“Good morning Dad” Arin walked up to him.
“Good morning princess” He bent to kiss her forehead.
“Good morning…” Irish said.
“Good morning Irish” Ethan smiled.
“Dad, Why do you feel we have to strengthen our security? Did anything happen?” Arin asked. “Nothing, believe me princess” Ethan said.
“Okay Dad”
“Go get ready for school, time is running fast” Ethan said.
“I’m pissed at Jessy and grandma” Arin frowned.
“Why?”
“They postponed their visit again!” Arin said.
“Really?” Ethan asked.
“Yeah, Gabrielle told me that yesternight. They keep postponing their visit and my birthday is in few days”Arin groaned.
“Ohh… they might be here before your birthday, you know Jessy won’t miss your birthday for anything”
“But i…”
“Let’s continue this after you’re back from school, you’re running late already” Ethan said. “Okay Dad” Arin said and walked into the bathroom.
“How was your night? I hope you had a sound sleep?” Ethan asked Irish.
“Yeah, i tried as much as possible not to allow the incidence affect my sleep and knowing Carl is right at my door gave me more relief”
