Chapter40:So are we supposed to hug or something?

Ethan’s POV I saw Corey on my way in but didn’t say anything. He looked awful. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked slightly disheveled. Did he stay up all night drinking? I wanted to ask but held myself back. According to the contract, I had to keep personal conversation to a minimum. I hated this stupid contract. I want to rip it to shreds then burn it. But I promised him. I went into my office and called my secretary. “Send Mr. Price some fresh coffee at his desk,” I instructed her. I thought about Charles. I couldn’t believe he was the same Charlie I remembered from my childhood. I couldn’t believe he was my brother. I had to make it right with him. It wasn’t his fault that he had a shitty father like mine. I’d be hopelessly angry too if I was him. I decided to call him. It was time we settle things, I thought. “What do you want?” Charles barked on the other line. “Come by the office today. We need to talk,” I said. “You don’t get to bark orders at me anymore,” he said. I sighed.
