Capítulo 49: CHAPTER 49: AISHA’S RESOLUTION
Aisha decided to tell Ethan the truth about her identity sooner or later. But first she needed to secure their safety. It would be after the annual symposium for the company. Maybe she still had time to fix everything as well as meet her twin sister. She decided to forget her feelings toward Ethan for her sister's sake. She would just set things in motion before she left the city for good. She was done thinking. She was done planning.
She was done crying and sympathizing with her fate. This time, she would make everything right. She then decided to accept her fate as the mafia heiress in the North. Yes, that was her fate all along.
She dropped by at Hunter's pet shop first. She needed to see the list of the investors and the board members as well. She needed to classify the group of people who joined the Hertiz' revolution and those who remained faithful to the company. She noted everything.
Mr. Katana from Japan, Mr. Schreninger of London and Mr. Salemander of Russia were the people with the highest investments in the company. If they cast their votes against Ethan, then Ethan would surely be done. Aisha needed to see these people. She also needed to convince those board members. Thanks to Hunter, he did a thorough background check on those big people. Ah, this information is more than enough for Aisha to start her plan.
Before leaving Hunter's shop, she called Lisa to set an appointment with Mr. Katana, Mr. Schreninger and Mr. Salemander on different dates. If she needed to fly a plane to talk to them, then she could just travel using Stacy's identity. She needed to move faster because she had a lot of things to do before the annual symposium.
"Good evening!" She greeted Ethan and Eli who were sitting at the dining table with a smile. Eli hugged her but Ethan just stared at her expressionlessly. She smiled at him.
"So what's the plan on Eli's birthday?'' She asked Ethan.
"Let's just do the same thing as last year. Why don't you design it A-G-A-I-N?" Ethan requested. Aisha panicked since she didn't know what happened last year.
"W-why don't we change it instead?" Aisha suggested. Ethan looked at her indifferently.
"Eli sweetheart, what do you want to do on your birthday?'' Aisha shifted her attention to Eli. Eli was thinking.
"Uhm… I want to go to Disneyland!" Eli exclaimed excitedly.
"Why don't we do that instead? Right Ethan?" She asked.
"Ehm… Okay, it's up to you." Then he munched on his food. Aisha looked at him in confusion.
She was thinking what's with Ethan's change in attitude towards her? Did she do anything wrong? She shrugged her thoughts. Anyway it was okay! She didn't want to associate herself with him anymore.
*** Aisha was already asleep when Ethan entered their room. He could not sleep due to his active mind at the moment. He went to his study room after their dinner. He reminisced all the things that the bounty hunter told him this morning.
"Don't you know that she is a Mafia heiress?" The hunter told him. Ethan demanded more information from him.
"Some people placed large bounties for her head. She actually has the highest. We didn't know who she was at first but we learnt that she is a mafia heiress, next in line to Demetrius. As you know, bounty hunters do not care who the target is, we care about the money! It's our profession." The hunter explained.
"Who is trying to kill her?" Ethan was trying to calm his nerves.
"I-I don't know. We are not in the position to know who the clients are."
Ethan's anger was about to explode so he left the cell before he killed the hunter. He went outside to take some fresh air.
"Just what exactly is happening?" He was in deep thought. Ethan knew that the Stacy who was with her was a brand new one. But he never thought that she was a more complicated one.
***Ethan once again looked at the sleeping woman beside him, then he picked up his phone then he stepped out in the terrace. He dialed Shawn's number.
"Release the hunters but never lose your eyes on them. They will definitely contact their clients soon." He ordered him.
"Yes Sir, I will update you as soon as we have a lead." Then he hung up. After their conversation, Ethan called his private investigator as well.
"Yes Sir?'' The guy on the other line answered.
"I need you to research on some things. I will send the details after this call." Ethan instructed before he hung up.
