Understanding what Ethan wanted to say, Lillie immediately felt awkward.
"Uh..I'm..home?" It was more like a question than a statement. Ethan raised his eyebrow and softly glared at her.
Lillie cleared her throat, "I'm home." She said, properly this time. Ethan nodded in satisfaction, walking towards her, he gently grabbed her wrist.
Storm growled at him. Don't you dare put your contaminated paw on my Mistress, human!
"Nanny Ying already prepared dinner. You clean up first, I'll fetch you in 5 minutes." Lillie absentmindedly nodded. She didn't know why but, these pass few weeks she've noticed that Ethan's attitude had changed drastically.
He had also taken good care of her when she was sick, always reminding her to take care of her health, to never skip her meals and to not exert her time too much on work.
What is his agenda? What's the reason behind all of his good deeds towards her?
Ethan smiled, causing Lillie's ears to redden and her heart skip a beat. What's wrong with her? Why is she getting affected by his charms again?
Back then, Lillie noticed Ethan by his looks, then his cool personality. She admitted that he was the first person she knew who acts much like her. But, because Lillie is the type of person who's an expert in keeping her emotions and expression on bay, Ethan would not even know that the looks she was giving him were of admiration and awe.
Even if you were to beat him to death, he would not know a single thing..
Changing into a more comfortable and casual clothing, at exactly five minutes later, Ethan came knocking on her door. Lillie open the door wide enough for him to see her room.
Without her knowing, Ethan's eyes caught a peculiar object on her bed. Is that...a box? The box's key hole was uncannily identical to the key Lillie's wearing as a necklace.
So, it was not an accessory after all. Ethan was relieved that it wasn't a sentimental accessory given to her by a potential lover. But now, he felt that this seem to be worst than a mere sentimental accessory. If Lillie were to wear the box's key, it means that the box's contents were really precious!
Lillie was careless this time. She failed to extinguish Ethan's change of expression, as her mind was occupied by the thoughts concerning the Underworld. Lillie was feeling stressed last night so she pulled out the box of letters from under her bed and began to read them.
If Lillie really wanted to know who the sender was, she could've done it a long time ago but, there was this fear that made her stop. Her mind told her that the sender might already be happy with his life and found someone new. His letters may or may not be just a small crush that was brought by his teenage mind. In those years, people are tend to be unserious in terms of relationships.
They thought it was love and then realized at the end that it was mere puppy love.
She assumed that he would no longer want to see the woman he had a had crush on for so long but never received her affections in return. She may have considered it though, if he made himself known.
Lillie is an open-minded woman, she was open for relationships but, no one had the guts to court her or even stand beside her. They all felt inferior, unworthy in her eyes because of her immense achievements in life.
That is why Ethan, whom felt unworthy to even touch her fingers, did everything to be her equal. But, where did that led him?
Heartache...

"Regarding that property I sent you last week, do you have any thoughts about it?" After they're finished with dinner, Ethan and Lillie (plus Storm) went to the living room to discuss things concerning their company.
Because they are both heirs to their father's business and soon to be married, the company will automatically merge. So, why won't they start it now to cover less ground?
With a glass of red wine on her hand she replied, "I was planning on having another branch of Bai Château." [1]
White Castle is a hotel chain that belongs to White Phoenix Empire. It has a total of 298 branch all around the world and the most popular and expensive hotel you will ever find.
Though, it was expensive but White Castle is worth spending your money for. If you failed to visit this hotel, you will die full of regrets.
Ethan had no problem with it if she've mentioned this earlier but now, he had a plan.
"You know that we're soon to be married right?" Lillie's hand stopped mid-air, the wine glass was inches away from her pink lips.
"Yes, what of it?"
"How about we collaborate in creating another business?"
"What kind?" HL Corp and WPE already have everything from hotels, malls, restaurants, hospitals, IT companies, entertainment industries, clothing lines, cars, jewelry stores and many more.
So, what kind of business does he want to create?
"How about an Entertainment Industry?"
Lillie's face darkens, the hand that held the wine glass clenched. He knew she was weak when it comes to entertainment industries and now he tells her to create one?
Is he making fun of her?
Seeing the dark look on Lillie's eyes, Ethan doesn't know whether to laugh or cry. Waving his hands in defense he said, "Don't misunderstand, it's not like Sunrise Entertainment." Lillie was not convinced.
Ethan sighed, she did misunderstood.
"You know how HL is good with the entertainment industry, right?" Ethan slowly said.
Lillie blinked.
"And WPE is really good with the gaming world." Lillie nodded.
"How about we combine the two?" He suggested.
Ethan's words were still progressing in her mind until...
"eSports?" Lillie's eyes widen as if she had a revelation.
Why haven't she thought of that before?
