After all, Ethan wasn’t just the owner of Drizzlewood Retreat-he was Nina’s right-hand man.
His visit was practically equivalent to Nina herself coming to the mansion. Word of this woul do wonders for the Stewart family’s reputation and status.
The Stewart family climbed into their cars, and Ethan followed in his own vehicle, speeding toward the Stewart Mansion.
Inside the car, Hewitt and the others were thrilled.
“Grandpa, does Ethan want to sign the contract at the mansion?” Zoey asked.
Hank cut in, “Zoey, that’s perfect! We’ll sign with Ethan in front of everyone. Just imagine thei faces!”
Micah said slowly, “Ethan has a good reason for this. This contract is too important. Signing it in front of the whole family will avoid future disputes.”
“Dad’s right. With everyone watching, Chuck and the others won’t have a leg to stand on,” Hewitt smiled. “Also, I think we should spread the word about Ethan’s visit.”
“Just hint at it. Don’t make a big fuss, or Ethan might get upset,” Micah said seriously.
He knew better than to overuse a powerful person’s influence-it could backfire.

At the Stewart Mansion, Silas walked into the West Compound Villa and reported, “Mr. Chuck Stewart, Mr. Micah Stewart says everyone must go to Hidden Dragon Hall at once.”
Chuck was in a bad mood. He frowned at Silas. “Why Hidden Dragon Hall again? Didn’t Dad leave with Hewitt?”
Silas explained patiently, “They’re back. And Mr. Micah Stewart said a special guest was here- he wants the entire family in the hall.”
“A special guest?” Chuck frowned. He told Audrey to call Stefan and Sara downstairs, then headed to the hall with them.
Soon, Chuck’s group arrived at Hidden Dragon Hall.

Stefan came along, curious about this “special guest” Micah had summoned everyone for.
The second branch, including Frazier, was already there.
At the center of the hall, Micah, Hewitt, and the others gathered around a slightly plump middle-aged man. They chatted casually, bringing him up to speed on the Stewart family.
Stefan’s eyes widened.
Ethan?
What’s he doing here?
“Ethan, everyone’s here. Please take a seat of honor,” Micah said respectfully, gesturing to a chair.
Ethan nodded. He scanned the room, his gaze briefly passing over Stefan and Sara.
He realized the Stewart family had no idea who Stefan really was-and for some reason, Stefan hadn’t told them.
Ethan wasn’t about to reveal Stefan’s identity as Nina’s special guest.
He knew better than to overstep.
“Ethan’s visit is a great honor for our family-it shows how much Ms. Reed values this partnership,” Hewitt stated, as if he were already the family head.
He looked around the hall and said, “Ethan wants to sign the contract in front of everyone, which is why Dad called us all here.”
Stefan glanced at Ethan and understood why Ethan had come to the Stewart Mansion in
person.
Sara and Philip looked at Ethan, too-Sara calm, Philip quietly hopeful.
“Mr. Hewitt Stewart is right. I’m here to sign this contract in front of the entire Stewart family,” Ethan smiled, pulling the drafted contract out of his briefcase.
