The Grants: Choosing One Between The Two-Chapter 186: Ethanโs Possessiveness Toward Yvette Aston
Yvette found inexplicable comfort being held by Ethan. ๐๐๐๐ฆ๐๐๐๐๐๐ท๐๐ญ.๐ธ๐ฐ๐
However, the conversation she had just had with Jayden, Ethan must have heard it...
Did he misunderstand?
Jayden looked at Ethan, the two confronted each other sharply in the elevator.
"Yvette is my ex-girlfriend. Arenโt you afraid of the gossip, brother?" Jayden reminded Ethan not to ruin his reputation.
Ethan sneered. "Youโre already engaged, yet youโre entangled with your sister-in-law. Whoโs ruining the reputation here?"
Jayden clenched his fists. "Who doesnโt know that Yvette and I were once together?"
"So what? If you were blind once, does that mean you canโt be cured?" Ethanโs cold eyes glared at Jayden.
Seeing the two about to fight, Yvette instinctively reached out and hugged Ethan, speaking softly. "I... my eyes are cured."
Jayden gripped his fists tightly, his face dark and frightening.
Yvette was deliberately provoking him.
"Ethan, you hate me so much that youโre always competing with me. Yvette is someone I cast aside, but you treat her like treasure." Jayden snorted before leaving the elevator.
"Watching you scramble to find your dignity on the groundโhow pathetic." Ethan held Yvetteโs hand, mocking Jayden.
Jaydenโs knuckles turned white, he paused for a moment, then left quickly.
Soon, Ethan would have his own problems to deal with.
Eric Larson is causing trouble with the project department. Letโs see how Ethan explains to the board.
After Jayden left, Yvette nervously tried to break free from Ethanโs grip.
But Ethan held her wrist tightly, pulling her into the office.
Feeling Ethanโs anger, Yvette was terrified.
Her heart was in her throat.
She was actually very afraid that Ethan would be angry and then abandon her...
"Still in love with Jayden? Hoping he and Charlotte cancel their engagement?" Ethan was heavily irritated.
Yvette looked at Ethan with fear, trembling, not knowing how to explain.
Ethan really was terrifying when he got angry.
"I... I didnโt..." Yvette cried in a hurry. "Thatโs not what I meant."
She was merely sarcastic towards Jayden.
Ethan snorted. "Iโm angry, can you tell?"
Yvetteโs tears rolled down in crystal drops, she nodded vigorously.
She understood.
Ethan felt a twinge of regret... he had scared Yvette.
He lifted her chin and helped her wipe away the tears. "You are mine..."
Yvette looked at Ethan, not daring to speak.
She could see the strong possessiveness in Ethanโs eyes.
It was a more frightening possessiveness than Henryโs.
Oddly, Yvette felt a bit chill.
"Youโve made me angry, how do you plan to make up for it?" Ethan asked.
Yvette bit her lip and shook her head.
"You, how do you want me to make it up..."
Ethan leaned closer to Yvette, suddenly wanting to kiss her.
Yvette was stunned for a moment, her nervous heart was in her throat.
Why did Ethan recently always want to kiss her...
"Summers is going to visit Caden tonight..." Ethan reminded Yvette in a hoarse voice.
Yvette nodded, realizing late. "Yes, right..."
"So tonight... I want to sleep with you." Ethan trapped Yvette against the wall.
Yvette stammered. "Havenโt we always... always slept together?"
"The sleep you mentioned is an adjective. I mean it as a verb." Ethan raised an eyebrow.
"..." Yvetteโs face flushed suddenly.
This guy... how could he be like this?
Who dared to spread the rumor that Ethan wasnโt interested in women and was indifferent?
He was clearly, just, just very excessive.
"Mr. Grant, Eric Larson has the entire project department waiting for you in the conference room." Christopher Carter knocked on the door from outside.
Frightened, Yvette quickly tidied her hair, took the materials, and followed Ethan out of the office.
"Howโs the handling?" Ethan asked.
Christopher nodded, holding the information of a few people. "Iโve already talked a few of them into it."
Ethan took the materials. "Hmm, well done."
Christopher, with dark circles under his eyes, laughed awkwardly, feeling flattered.
He had been up all night...
Yvette followed Christopher and Ethan into the conference room.
In the conference room, Eric Larson looked very displeased, glaring at Yvette with intense anger.
Yvette lowered her head and hid behind Ethan.
"Mr. Grant, our project department personnel intend to resign with me." Eric Larson was still trying to save face, wanting Ethan to ask him to stay.
Ethan sat back in his chair, looking at Eric Larson, then at the project team members. "Whoever is resigning, stand up and let me see."
The project team exchanged glances, nervously looking at each other, no one daring to be the first to stand up.
Eric Larson clenched his fingers and stood up himself.
Ethan nodded. "Only Manager Larson wants to leave?"
Others, seeing Eric Larson stood up, those who had something over them also cautiously stood up.
Ethan glanced at Christopher. "Notify the HR department to proceed with their resignation formalities."
Eric Larson looked at Ethan in shock; was Ethan going to fire the entire project team? "Mr. Grant, doing this, wonโt the board object?"
Eric seemed confident, as Melody Crowe was already on her way.
Melody was surely with Arthur Grant.
The chairman personally came. Letโs see how Ethan handles it.
"Manager Larson seems to be in a hurry, expedite, first approve his resignation formalities, after all, he was the only one who voluntarily submitted a resignation request yesterday." Ethan glanced at Christopher.
Christopher nodded and notified HR to process Eric Larsonโs resignation.
Before Melody Crowe and Arthur arrived.
"Ethan Grant... youโve taken action before informing!" Eric Larson slammed the table in anger.
"Thatโs not right, Manager Larson, you voluntarily proposed resignation, am I, Ethan Grant, the Group CEO, not able to approve an employeeโs resignation?" Ethanโs voice was low.
Yvette glanced at Christopher and pulled up a prepared banner.
It read, Manager Larson Farewell Party for Leaving.
The project team gasped, no one dared to make a sound.
"As for others in the project department who havenโt submitted a resignation application, I assume theyโre just reluctant to part with Manager Larson, understandable. Since there will be a vacancy, we will have internal candidates compete for it. Iโm quite satisfied with a few." Ethan announced the names of those Christopher worked on last night.
This effectively broke them from within.
Several looked at Eric Larson nervously and explained helplessly. "Manager Larson, weโre sorry too. Getting into Grant Group isnโt easy. If we leave with you, we may not have the same stable salary. We also have families to support, apologies."
Eric Larsonโs face darkened, he gritted his teeth hard.
"Letโs see who dares to fire Eric Larson." From the door, Melody Crowe with Jayden, walked in with overpowering anger.
Clearly fighting Ethan for company control.
Ethan squinted slightly, seeing that Arthur hadnโt shown up, huh... giving Melody full confidence.
"Aunt Crowe has quite the audacity." Ethan mocked, smiling. "But youโre late."
Ethan put the news of Eric Larsonโs successful resignation on the projector screen. "It wasnโt me firing Manager Larson; itโs his own voluntary resignation. Two different concepts."
"Ethan Grant!" Melody shivered with anger, her face turning from dark to pale. "Your father said youโve been too stressed lately, so he wants Jayden to temporarily take your place and let you go home and rest!"
Melody came to force Ethan out of the CEO position.
Yvette looked at Ethan nervously. This was definitely Arthurโs words; otherwise, Melody wouldnโt be this confident.
The real storm within the company was about to hit.
