Hearing him, Lewis recalled what Ethan had done to him and he thanked Jethro again, “In that case, the William family will repay Mr. Reese with whatever thing he asks of once this is over.”Ethan briefly glanced at the men rushing towards him before slipping out his ringing phone.“Is this Mr. Black?” A man asked as soon as Ethan answered.“Yes.”“Oh, this is Josiah Haworth, the manager of the company you bought. I'm calling to ask if you have any orders for me.” “A moment.” Ethan took the phone down from his ear and grabbed the stick which one of the five people rushing towards him was wielding. Then he unhurriedly used it to whip all five of them at the same place; the back of their necks.Three of them fell to the ground and couldn't get up again, but two of them persisted. They were the two people Jethro Reese had his faith in.When Lewis saw they hadn't fallen like the others, he grew bolder and sneered at Ethan.“Despite everything you've done, the William family has done noth

"Grandpa! Grandpa!" Lewis yelled as he rushed into the William family residence.Adam William, who was standing on the balcony inside the house, was immediately displeased."What are you shouting for?""Grandpa!" Lewis swallowed, looking towards the balcony. "I just saw that good-for-nothing kill someone."Adam frowned. "Good-for-nothing?""That loser, Ethan Black, who's sponging off us!" Lewis nodded.Adam immediately lost interest in what his grandson had to say."I've told you not to be bothered by someone like him. The William family will take care of him at a later date... wait, he killed someone?" He changed his words when Lewis' words registered."Yes, grandpa! I saw it with my own eyes. I-I was with Jethro Reese just some minutes ago. He was disrespected by that loser, so he took some people with him to teach him a lesson. He even had people who were in the army before with him. I thought we'd finally be able to put an end to that rascal, only to see him impale one of the men

By the time they got home, Honey was already fast asleep in Ethan's arm.Chloe pushed the door open to see a full house. For the first time in several months, she saw her father dressed decently and seated on a couch. Although he held a bottle of gin, this was the most sober she had seen him in months.“Bastard! How dare you set foot back in this house after what you did to the William family?!” Scott William suddenly got up and yelled as soon as he saw Ethan.“The scumbag…wait, who the hell do you think you are to ask him that?” Out of habit, Matilda was about to insult Ethan when she recalled the bundle of money he had given her in the morning.Although that didn't change her impression of him, she didn't want to say anything that'd make him stop giving it to her. At least until she finds someone wealthy who'd be willing to marry Chloe.Her change of words surprised Claire. She dropped her phone and looked up at her mother, then asked worriedly, “Mom, did you hit your head somewhere,

A few minutes after Claire left her room, Chloe got up to check on Honey. Claire's room was just opposite hers. So when Chloe saw the door ajar, she got curious and pushed the door open. Her intention was just to look and confirm Claire was on the bed, but when she looked and didn't see her, the sleep left her eyes, and she switched on the light and walked into the room."Claire?" she called and walked around the room. "Claire, are you in the toilet?" She searched the room for two minutes before she realized her sister was gone and quickly ran into Honey's room, where Ethan was standing by the window with his phone pressed against his ear. Hearing someone come in, he turned around with cold eyes, but they turned gentle when he saw it was Chloe.He was about to tell her there was no reason for her to check up on their daughter when she ran towards him, and the reflection coming from the moon outside illuminated the worried look on her face. "Ethan! Claire is missing! No, she has been

"This is the loser causing us to lose so much money? I assumed he'd be someone worthy to look at!""Look at what his goon is doing to the Reese family house. Hermes, do more than break their arms and legs!""My eyes are tainted just by looking at him. I need to wash them once this is all over!""Hermes should've taught him a lesson outside the Reese family house. Why let trash into the Reese family house? It's such a headache."Ethan glanced at his watch. He needed to visit the company he purchased before 12 to see how things were going. So, he didn't want to spend too much time dealing with the Reese family. Furthermore, they weren't worth his time."You're right. That's enough playing with you. Kane!" Ethan sneered coldly and called out to Kane.An elated Kane breezily whipped through the air and around the five men.The Reese family saw nothing happening besides hearing painful loud cries and the sound of bones being snapped into it.Hermes was smiling smugly, knowing fully well th
