Chapter 4 - Repossessing The Luxury Company Car
Panicking, Ethan rushed out of the café and hurried toward the designated parking space where his sleek luxury sedan sat.
The vehicle had been provided entirely by Sterling Crest Group as part of his executive compensation package.
Except, as he reached the curb, his car was nowhere to be seen in the bustling downtown parking lot.
Instead, a large flatbed tow truck was already hauling down a similar luxury vehicle just two blocks away.
Ethan’s phone buzzed aggressively in his pocket, displaying an urgent text message from the corporate fleet manager.
The message was short, blunt, and carried the terrifying weight of absolute corporate authority.
“Your company vehicle has been reported for unauthorized possession and is currently being towed to our impound facility.”
Ethan stared at his phone screen in sheer disbelief, his mind desperately trying to process how everything went wrong so fast.
He dialed Chloe’s cell phone number, his hands shaking so violently he nearly dropped the device onto the pavement.
“Chloe, something is wrong with my accounts! All our corporate credit lines have been frozen simultaneously!” Ethan yelled.

Chloe answered from the River Oaks mansion, her voice tinged with sudden, sharp panic.
“Ethan, what are you talking about? Your mother just tried to order catering for the baby shower, and her card didn't work either!”
