“Ha ha ha, young Ethan, what wind blew you to my humble abode? Such an honor, such an honor! Ha ha ha!” Standing before the main entrance of the Sky bar, a middle-aged man with a bald head, clad in a red, modernized traditional long robe, incessantly rubbed his hands together while bursting into obsequious laughter. If not knowing well that the person was Big Brother Jevin, the leader of the Fish Market gang, The Spinel folks would not have recognized him - one of the top figures in the underworld of New Single city. However, Ethan's face bore no expression at this moment. He only glanced at Jevin briefly before walking straight into the bar. Seeing this, the Spinels quickly followed behind him. Meanwhile, the smile on Jevin's face hadn't faded; he even slightly bowed his head, not daring to look straight at Ethan. “Mr. Jevin, who was that just now? Why did they seem so arrogant? They didn't even consider us!” At this moment, standing beside Jevin was a young man, still quite g

"Who?!" Discovering that someone had silently appeared behind her, the masked woman was slightly startled, shouting out in surprise. However, when she saw that the person appearing in front of her was just an ordinary high school girl holding a lollipop, the tension on her face relaxed slightly. "Kid, this matter has nothing to do with you. You'd better stay as far away as possible. Otherwise, don't blame me for my cruelty!" With that, the woman in the shrouded attire planned to carry the unconscious London away from the couch in the living room. But at that moment, the young girl tilted her head, looked at the woman and revealed a somewhat strange smile. "Oh, is that so?" Seeing this action of the young girl, for some reason, the woman in the shrouded attire became slightly terrified. However, after scanning the surroundings once more, she didn't find what she was looking for. Eventually, the woman lost patience, waving dismissively. "Fine then, if you don't know your plac

Of course, Londyn knew that Ethan and London were bluffing. But she didn't want to confront them. Instead, she felt a sense of curiosity about what Ethan's gift might be. "Mommy, you're not mad at me, are you?" London suddenly grasped Londyn's hand, her eyes filled with worry. Seeing her daughter's troubled expression, Londyn leaned down and placed her hand on London's shoulder. "Why would Mommy be mad at you?" Hearing this, London frowned and bit her lip. After a moment, she shook her head. "I shouldn't have lied to Daddy, telling him today is also your birthday." Upon hearing her daughter's answer, Londyn fell silent, not uttering another word. Sensing her mother's silence, little London couldn't help feeling a bit anxious, and decided to speak out. "Mom, you're not really mad at me, are you? I truly didn't mean any harm. I just wanted Dad to give you a present. For years, you've been the one to buy birthday gifts for me, and no one ever gave you one. Now that Dad is back,

"Captain, you've arrived?" Standing before the gates of the mansion, Spinel, dressed in uniform, saluted Ethan with serious respect. In return, she was met with Ethan's stern, unfeeling gaze. "How's the investigation coming along?" At Ethan's question, Spinel hesitated slightly, her face displaying a touch of embarrassment. Nonetheless, she did not hide anything, choosing to spill the truth. "The results are not very promising! Our investigations have led us to suspect the perpetrator might be a member of a professional assassin organization. Moreover, there's an electronic chip implanted in her head. We suspect it's a mini bomb, equipped with an automatic detonation mechanism. It'll explode if her memories are tampered with, simultaneously wiping her entire memory." Ethan listened to Spinel's report in silence, his face impassive, giving nothing away. Then he walked towards the mansion, finally saying with an icy calmness, "Follow me to the interrogation room. I want to see

The next morning, Ethan woke up early as always. Although his body felt a bit tired, he couldn't break his early bird habit. He slowly got out of bed, did some personal hygiene, put on a sports suit, and leisurely strolled outside the mansion around the lake.This time, he didn't encounter the grandfather and grandson duo from the nearby villa, but he did see Spinel and some soldiers from his unit jogging outside the park."Captain!""Captain!"Upon seeing Ethan, all the soldiers shouted in unison. However, since everyone was in casual clothes, nobody noticed anything unusual. Ethan felt a bit awkward, raising his hand and waving it dismissively."Alright, everyone is free today, and when we're not on duty, there's no need to call me captain. You can simply call me by my name!"Having said this, Ethan, without bothering about the soldiers following behind him, set off jogging around the park. After around a dozen laps, he finally returned to the mansion, refreshed himself with a bath,
