Ethan Montero

The news hit the media like a bombshell: Ethan Montero is getting married. He, the cold and enigmatic millionaire CEO who never gave interviews; she, a sweet young adult, raised under strict traditions and far removed from the media frenzy. Despite their opposing worlds—and the twenty-year age gap between them—the arranged marriage would go ahead.

Today was the day. Today they would meet for the first time.

Ethan waited silently in front of his mansion's entrance, immaculate as ever, with that presence that intimidated even his closest associates. The enormous doors behind him, bathed in morning light, seemed to mark the beginning of a story neither of them had chosen… but which, nonetheless, they were about to face.

Picture him: ash blonde, that shade that looks expensive even when it's messy. The light falls on him, highlighting the hair fibers like something out of a luxury perfume commercial. Gray eyes, the kind that don't just look: they assess. You can't tell if he's analyzing you or calculating how to buy the company you work for… and the one next door, too.

The guy is tall, not "average tall," no. He's the kind of tall "people are practically moving around in elevators" type. He's muscular, broad-shouldered, and has perfect posture. He walks like he's used to the floor adapting to him, not the other way around. And yes, all this while wearing a long coat and a black sweater that screams, "I can crash the stock market and then go eat an apple in peace." Literally.

As CEO, he's an urban legend with an ID: — He closes impossible deals. — It can subdue rival companies with just a raised eyebrow. — He has a reputation that mixes fear, respect, and a slight “hey… he’s still good.”

But here comes the juicy part: personality. On the outside, it's corporate ice, pure control, zero tremors. But on the inside… mmm, there beats a subtle irony, an almost surgical patience, and a humor that leaves you speechless. He never shouts: he speaks softly and everyone obeys. He has that energy of "if I blink, the economy trembles."

And yet, when you see him holding something simple—like that apple—you understand that behind the business shark there is someone who overthinks, who carries more than he shows, and that if he lets you approach, it's because he won you a VIP ticket to a world that no one else sets foot in.
