The Billionaire I Fell In Love With

Ethan sat in his office, working.

He has not had a rest or eaten since morning.

He has to catch up on all the works that has been left behind for days.

His manager can do that but Ethan loves doing things himself, he loves doing things to his own satisfaction.

And the great time he had spent with Irish yesterday, made him work happily.

The intercom buzzed and he picked it up.

“Hey” He said.

” Mr Ethan, Morgan Harlow is here to see you” His secretary said.

“Ohh… really?” Ethan asked, not surprised a bit.

“But i told him there’s no way he can, he refused to leave but the securities are on their way to lead him out. I just wanted to inform you.

“Let him in” Ethan said.

“Sir??

“Let him in” Ethan repeated.

“Ohh… okay sir”

The call disconnected and the secretary turned to face Morgan and his multiple bodyguards.

“Uhh.. He said you can come in” She said and Morgan gave her a one sided smiled.

“I told you he won’t dare refuse to let me in.” Morgan grinned.

“You’ll be led to his office” She said.

“I know my way” Morgan said and then walked to the elevator with his bodyguards.

He had grown up with Ethan for years and even though hates to admit it, Ethan had a hand in making him this successful today.

“Have you gotten that stuff ready?” Morgan whispered to one of his bodyguards.

“Yes boss” The bodyguard bowed and Morgan laughed as he got into the elevator.

“I’m sorry but you can’t go in with your bodyguards!” Robbins said sternly to Morgan.

“Says who?” Morgan asked.

“It’s not allowed, no one goes into my boss’s office with bodyguards ” Robbins said.

“Move out of the way” Morgan said menacingly.

“Morgan Harlow, you really need to give yourself some respect. I’m sure your bodyguards do follow everything you tell them, you don’t expect me to disobey my boss too. Javad why aren’t you saying anything?!” Robbins asked, quite surprised by Javad’s sudden behavior.

They were both assigned to stay by Mr Ethan’s door.

“Your boss wouldn’t dare tell me not to come in with my bodyguards. Move out of the way” Morgan said.

“I dare tell you Morgan Harlow, not to come into my office with any bodyguard. If you insist, then you can take your leave” Ethan said, appearing at the door.

“Ohh… i can see you gave your bodyguard the opportunity to stand before me and say thrash” Morgan said.

“You gave your bodyguards the freedom to glare at me too” Ethan asked.

“Why do they look so malnourished? I bet Robbins can beat up the ten of them in just few minutes” Ethan laughed.

Morgan looked annoyed “Are you mocking my bodyguards?”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“Of course not but you shouldn’t eat all the meals alone, make them feed well and work out, you know they are the ones meant to protect you whenever you’re in danger, they look so starved they could pass for gatekeepers and even my gatekeeper is not as malnourished as they are.”Ethan said, wearing a mockery smile.

Morgan saw his bodyguards stare at their feet and he was so angry they had allowed Ethan words get to them.

He gritted his teeth and glared hard at Ethan who doesn’t even seem affected by anything.

“And why do you have to go out with ten bodyguards? Are your bad deeds that much that you need ten bodyguards to follow you wherever you go. You don’t feel safe cause you’ve hurt so many people and you’re afraid of being hurt too. I go out with just two bodyguards or none at all, don’t you feel choked with all these people around you?” Ethan asked.

“Keep shut! Fool” Morgan barked angrily.

“Okay kid brother” Ethan laughed and Robbins laughed too.

Morgan had initially thought he’d be the one to make mockery of Ethan but tables are turned already.

“Damn! Look at that one at the back. Is he eighteen?” Ethan asked pointing to a bodyguard who looked so thin and frail.

“Matcha is seventeen boss” Robbins reminded Ethan and they both bursted out laughing. “Right! Matcha is seventeen and he’s even more built than this guy. He looks matured, i think he only needs some diet.” Ethan said feeling so sorry for him.

” Before they leave, make Anna write a cheque of $200, 000 and give it to him secretly”Ethan whispered to Robbins who nodded.

“I’m so sorry guards, i didn’t mean to mock you all” Ethan apologized and they all stared in surprise.

“If you’re still insisting on coming in with your bodyguards, then you may leave” Ethan said, making to close the door.

“Fine, I’ll come in alone” Morgan said through gritted teeth.

He was so mad his plan just got ruined.

Ethan was seated comfortable on his seat when Morgan walked in.

“Sit” He offered.

“I don’t need to” Morgan said.

“You can stand then. Why are you here?” Ethan asked, he wouldn’t allow Morgan threaten him and push him around like a bushbaby anymore.

“Irish” Morgan said and Ethan bursted into a loud laughter.

“If I can think we, my name is not Irish, and Irish is a lady. Do I look like a lady? Ethan asked, touching his face dramatically.

“I’m not here to joke Ethan!” Morgan yelled, banging the table.

He sent some files flying in the air and that almost pissed Ethan off but he remained calm. He picked his phone and placed a call across Robbins.

“Send one of Morgan’s bodyguards in now.

“Okay Mr Ethan.

The door opened and a bodyguard walked in.

“Clean your boss’s mess” Ethan said to him pointing to the files on the floor and the bodyguard didn’t hesitate, he picked the files and arranged it neatly on Ethan’s table.

He so much wished he was working for Ethan.

“Thank you, you can leave” Ethan smiled and the bodyguard left.

Morgan’s eyes dimmed with anger ” What did you just do?”

“You were not blind, you saw it all and didn’t stop me” Ethan said.

“You do not have the right to order my bodyguard around” Morgan said.

“I did not, i only asked him to clean your mess. Isn’t it part of their duty?” Ethan asked. “Whatever! I want Irish. I’ve been interested in her from day one, and I’ve come to let you know that I love her and ready to have her as my wife, not minding that.. thing, or baby she’s carrying” Morgan grinned.

“Okay, have you told her?” Ethan asked, looking so unmoved that it pissed Morgan off. He had wanted to see Ethan look threatened and scared but the fool is looking otherwise.

“What exactly do you want? Are you here to talk about your so called love for Irish or something else? I have so many work to do.” Ethan said.

“Like i once said, I’m done with Catherine and now I’m moving to Irish”

“You must be a dunderhead to think you can win Irish over that easily. Do you know her at all? Even if you offer her the whole wealth in the world, she is going to remain on her stand. I should give you a hint, you can’t win Irish over with wealth, or material things” Ethan smiled.

“What game are you trying to play Ethan?” Morgan asked suspiciously.

“Game? I do not need to play any game, Irish’s mine already but you are free to ‘shoot your shot’ though” Ethan laughed.

“This was exactly how you claimed Catherine was yours then before i took her away from you” Morgan laughed.

“I know right but can’t you see Irish’s different from Catherine, are you that foolish? How many times have you approached her for sexual affair? Ethan groaned.

“You’re the foolish one here Ethan. Whatever you say won’t make me stop fighting for mr Irish and you know how bloody my fights can be , it’ll be better for you to step down now” Morgan said.

“Oh.. my.. God! I’m scared”Ethan shivered dramatically before bursting into laughter. “You should really desist from threatening people Morgan, you’ve been doing this for years now even when we were little, i thought you’d be more matured by now. I’m so disappointed”Ethan shook his head.

“Step down now Ethan! Or you’ll face the consequences, you know how dangerous i am” Morgan said.

” You’re dangerous right? Then, you shouldn’t be so scared of a weakling like me… gosh” Ethan said.

“Scared?” Morgan laughed. “I’m not scared, i just don’t want to hurt you or people close to you. Especially that miserable parents of yours.”

“I couldn’t fight for Catherine, but now i want to know how it feels to really fight for what you want. I’ll be fighting for Irish and i should warn you to get ready, I’ll not be so nice. And just so you know, she’s carrying my baby”Ethan said and for the first time ever Morgan felt threatened. “Okay, the battle line is drawn”Morgan said with all the courage he could muster.

“You’re so good in doing things like this right?” Ethan asked.

“Of course, are you getting scared already?” Morgan laughed.

“Scared? Hell no but don’t be so relaxed thinking you’re going to win this time cause I’m going to

make you taste my venom” Ethan said, his eyes darkened to the deepest shade of Jade. Morgan covered his fear with a scary laughter.

“Really? Then the best should throw the best pitch” Morgan said.

“And starting now, I’m gonna be pitching knives and spares”Ethan smiled slowly and Morgan tightened his fist.

Damn!
