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..."

Sandro looked up from the tab to see Zane and Ewan sitting on the wooden chairs around a small dining table by the northern wing of the living room. He joined them, taking a seat directly opposite Ewan.

"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.

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.
