Alani murmured something to him near the elevator, and he marched over to Minna, who was engrossed in her phone.

"Weren't you told to help clean? The Mitchell Group doesn't pay people to loaf around. If you're not going to work, you can pack up your things and leave." Rex had no patience for Minna and didn't bother hiding his disdain.

Minna, feeling slightly uneasy, said, “There's no need to clean here. I've already spoken to the CEO's mother; Brenna will be out of here soon." "Bold words for someone like you. You think you can oust the CEO's girlfriend?" Without hesitation, Rex pulled out his phone to inform Ethan of Minna's behavior.

Just as Ethan's car rolled to a halt outside the hospital, his phone buzzed with a message from Rex. He glanced at the screen, and his already stormy mood darkened further. He muttered, "Does Elsa really have to poke her nose into everything? Will this ever end?" His frustration with Elsa's constant need to control every aspect of his life had reached its peak. Although the situation was annoying, he didn't consider it a major problem-just an inconvenience. No matter how hard Elsa pushed, he wasn't about to give in. If he were that easy to bend, he would have yielded to his mother's will and joined the military long ago.

He scowled, staring at the message for a moment before an idea suddenly sparked in his mind. After parking the car, Neville noticed Ethan hadn't moved and said, "Sir, we have arrived." Ethan responded with a quiet hum and locked eyes with Neville. "I need to make a call first." He dialed a familiar number, fully aware that his grandmother's movements had slowed to a crawl these days. It would take tfor her to answer the phone. At eighty-seven, it was impressive enough that she managed to take care of herself without troubling her children.

When no answer came, he ended the call and waited patiently. Two minutes later, he tried again, and this tthe call was answered. His tone warmed considerably, a genuine smile curling at the corners of his lips. "Grandma, how have you been? I miss you."

As Ethan's uncle often liked to say, "Belén loves her twin grandsons more than her other grandchildren, maybe even more than her own children."

Elsa used to serve in the military and always had a packed schedule, sp she rarely had tto visit her mother. Even after retiring recently, she still hadn't made the trip.

But Ethan knew how much Elsa cared about her mother. She always told him that once she retired, she' would make up for the tshe missed with Belén. And now that she finally had the time, wasn't this the perfect chance?
