Chapter 218: The ‘Psychatric Clinic’ V

"Were you able to get the information on Ethan Patterson?" Ewan asked Sandro as he halted right in the middle of Connor’s living room.

Sandro nodded and deftly brought up his iPad, scrolling and swiping past a couple of documents.

"He is an orphan, lived from one foster home to another, and finally got dumped at an orphanage... Lucky enough to garner the attention of a reverend father when he topped his classes in the Catholic boarding school. The Father sent him to college..."

An intermittent pause.

"Somehow, he met Athena, because that’s the next information I see right here. The fact that he was seen with Athena at every event, at every gathering—it was like he was a bodyguard, something akin to what Aiden is. Do you think there’s a common ground where they all met?"

"I’m not sure. That’s what research is for, isn’t it?" Ewan stated, drumming his fingers on the table.

Sandro sighed and returned his attention to the tab. "Well, there’s a hole in the research. Holes, actually. Ethan’s life, from when he met Athena, is quite obscure. The only known thing is that he suddenly sprouted up to becoming the CEO of a couple of startups, which, according to him today, all belong to Athena. Yet, it doesn’t stop the fact that he has made his mark in the business world."

"And what about the academy? Did you collect information on that? Is it a school?" Ewan asked, pushing aside questions of Athena’s life that kept popping up.
