Entwined heart

CHAPTER TWO

"Good morning sir" as a Valet greeted an average height build man waiting patiently at the corner of the hotel entrance all dressed up on a well built suit, he exude an air of confident his dark hair slightly tousled his deep brown eyes reflect anticipation. It was Micheal, Samantha's boss, he scan his surrounding as he noticed a female figure rushed into the hotel but he was so distracted to check. He checked his wrist watch to keep in touch with time as he felt the early morning cool air.

He checked his phone to see if he had no missed calls. Few minutes later an all black Lamborghini Aventador with neatly patterned gold stripes, gold wheels with tinted glasses. Michael felt relieved, unlike his previous anxiety.

The nearest Valet came by to help with the door but Micheal raised his hand to put him at hault as he opened the car door himself with a big fat smile on his face like a business man who just got a big deal.

The Lamborghini Aventador door opens, revealing a distinguish gentle man on a tailored suit which fit his athletic physique, his hair perfectly styled and his beard perfectly groomed, his suit is accompany with well polished black sleek Italian leather shoe. The man present command, respect and attention emanating an air of opulence.

He smiled at the gigantic hotel right in front of him, radiating the scene of luxury, exclusive and a prestige view. Proud of what he has made it, the Vegas hotel was amongst the top hotels in Los Angeles. He walked into the entrance with his manger; Michael, who was trying to keep up with his pace of movement along some escort while making their movement toward the elevator.

"Michael what do you have for me, hope my suite is ready"

"Yes sir, the conference room has also been prepared for your meeting to hold,would I be making reservations for your guest sir ? "

"I don't think there would be need for that"

Michael and the man were about to enter the elevator when his name was called

" Ethan"

He looks back to see an average man in suit walking towards him with a file in his hand

"Anthony, I have been trying to reach you" Ethan said while trying to check the file handed over to him

"I was able to get the Mac management to work with us on our new project, they seem to be fine with our proposal" Anthony said as he collects the file from Ethan

"Very good, at least that have been solved. I would be having a meeting with the shareholders, to talk on the hotel stake movement" Ethan said as he moved into the open elevator.

********

The elevator beeps as it got to it's destination, revealing Ethan's suite. He dismissed Michael after a little talk on how the club area were doing. Stepping into the suite as he opened the suite door with a black diamond card in his hand revealing a spacious and tastefully decorated living area, the room features high quality furnishings, a plush king side bed with premium linen, the floor to the ceiling was around 12 feet, the window offering a breath taking view of the city and natural landscape; the window allowing a natural radiance of light to fill the room enhancing the over all sense of warmth and luxury. He head for a cool soak in bath to calm himself and get prepared for business.

All clean and fresh, Ethan stepped out walking towards the window glass to take a sight, enjoying the view with a cup of coffee in his hand, wearing a black robe and a white towel around his neck. He remembered his previous visit to LA and can not seem to forget such delight enjoyment and fun which he had. The cool air blew in, he took a deep breath and gave a sign of relief as he exhale, having a smile on his face as he had flashback images of his previous stay, he has a sudden energetic feeling to get laid instantly, knowing too well a call can get them rolling in all the baddies and goodies LA got in it but he already made a schedule to meet with his business partner and see a old friend.

"Okay Ethan, time to go get more money" he walked to the house phone beside him, called the concierge to get his suit ready.

******

Ethan was in the meeting room when he receive a call from an unknown number he picked up the call

"we have the person you seek sire" the person on the other end said and Ethan ended the call, he looked at his wrist watch again because he was always a person that keeps to time. Quickly finalized whpat he needed to do in the meeting, dismissed the investor and left the room without looking back, headed down to the parking lot telling his driver that he would be driving himself he got into his Lamborghini Aventador and speed out from the hotel toward the location sent by the unknown number.

He arrived at a wooden single pen house at the city outskirt, nothing much out there, trees and nature. Stepped out and went straight for the door, the heavily built guy on a dark glass with a straight face ; giving a dark feeling, opened the door before he got near.

The pen house was dark with a low pendant light over a tied up man on a chair.

"Well, well, well look who it is" Ethan said, clapping both hands as he walked towards the man

"Please Ethan, I've been struggling. I need more time, I'll make it up to you" the man spoke with a shivering and nervous voice as thick liquid draw down his mouth.

"Time ?........ You had time running and hiding, you've been surviving well and over the years you've been able to welcome a new child and you still need time"

The man open widened as he heard Ethan talked about his newly born son

"You surprised, well I've been digging and I know about your family in the UK, unfortunately they are not in your safe net . That isn't why I'm here anyway. Where is my money? "

"I promise, I'm gonna pay"

"That isn't a pay, I only have two option for you cause I've been in lost. You hand over the collateral you've been safeguarding from my reach or your poor family gets a visit, oh God, the little boy just got here. What is your say"

"What about I give you a 70% and make it up to you, please don't hurt my family"

"70% ! You know well that share is low. You've been running for a year. Let calculate the interest over the years, just business here. Well that offer covers what you borrowed and the interest seems missing. How would you feel if what you love got missing"

"Please, Ethan, you know they all I have"

"And you know my money is all I also have. So which is ?"

"Alright, you can have it man. Just don't hurt my family"

"Nice doing business" Ethan said as he smiled and gave him a light touch on his check.

Ethan was disgusted with the little stain of blood on his hand, he brought out an handkerchief wiped it off and cleaned the man's face.

"Untie him, this isn't how you treat a business man, guys" Ethan said to the two hefty men behind them, one would hardly notice their presence in the room.

(Unties the man)

"I hope to see you around soon" Ethan said and left the pen house.
