“You bastard!” The boss yelled, taking the glass of water on the table, and splashing it on Ethan’s face.“Get out! No one wants a pauper like you here.” She said, through gritted teeth.“And no one wants an unreasonable boss like you!” Ethan fired back, angrily as he couldn’t let her continue to look down on him. At his words, his boss burst into a peal of hilarious laughter mixed with annoyance.“You know what, you are fired!” She declared with a wicked look in her eyes. She wanted Ethan to beg her, groveling on the floor, because she knew he had nowhere else to make more money. “What? You can't fire me! I know my rights!” Ethan said with a firm tone. Though he couldn't keep himself from talking back at his boss, he didn't want to get fired. “Do you think your rights work here? I own this company and even if you complain to HR, no one will help you. Now, leave before I call the police on you!” The boss ordered with an angry look on her face. Ethan was boiling in anger knowing thi

Ethan’s heart skipped a beat just by looking at her, the way she said she was there for him, made it all worse for Ethan. It wasn't that he was falling in love with her but it was because of the system’s instruction. “How do you feel? Do you feel pain?” She asked, with a worried look making Ethan come back to his senses. “I… I...” Ethan stuttered, finding the right words to say while she looked at him with a questionable look. At this point, he almost cursed the system for making him look stupid and giving a mission so abruptly. “What are you saying, Mr. Ethan?” She asked while she placed her hand on his chest. He knew it was his time to make a move, he couldn't continue to look stupid. He placed his hand slowly on hers and then looked straight at her.“I… I… am just too stunned by your beauty.” He muttered, with an intense look in his eyes. His words caused the doctor to gasp a bit, surprised because she never expected it. But then her pale and stressed face blushed slightly, rega

There was a silent stand-off between Ethan and Becca, alongside the men and women by her side. Ethan took a glance at them, his mouth twitching slightly, after a while, she turned around facing the receptionist. “How dare you ignore me?” Becca’s angry voice came just as Ethan turned around. “And what do you expect me to do?” Ethan’s mouth curled up into a smirk as he looked at Becca. “Kneel and greet you? Cause I don’t know what you are expecting from me.” He continued, and the smile on his face widened. “How dare you…” Becca gritted her teeth pointing at Ethan. Her face turned green from embarrassment. “Let me let you know something you don’t know.” Becca sneered, continuing after a while as it seemed like she regained her confidence. “You are at the bottom of the food chain while I am at the top. It's only right that you do what is due because you are not supposed to be here in the first place.” She said with a sneer and then folded her hands as if waiting on the said due.

Everyone halted as they heard that shrill voice. They were quite surprised and of course, they wanted to continue to watch the scene being displayed. Ethan turned around to see Becca staring at him with a livid look. But she folded her arms, trying to look sassy.“Did you just speak to me?” Ethan asked, wondering if she had gone nuts to demand an explanation now. “Yes, I did. And I am asking you to explain yourself this instant.” Becca replied and Ethan frowned in displeasure. He used to look at Becca as a classy girl but now she paled in comparison. She didn't even care if everyone was looking at her weirdly. “What is there to explain?” Ethan asked with a shrug of his shoulders. He looked like he wasn't bothered and he just wanted to leave but then Becca wouldn't let him. “You are asking me that? You lied to me all these while and never even told me you had money. You gave me just measly amounts and now you show up as an honored guest of The Star Hotel. Of course, you do owe me a

At Ray’s order, the ten men surrounded Ethan while Ray dragged Becca to the side. Ethan looked at the men and he tried to determine how long it would take to beat them all. His current fighting skills could suffice and he became even more confident and then a smile crept on his face making the men livid. “Why are you smiling? Are you happy about your upcoming death?” One of the men asked and Ethan’s smile turned wider. It was the same huge man who blocked him and he walked toward the huge guy. “I will like to go against you first.” Ethan suggested and the huge guy laughed. He was looking down at Ethan who was just up to his bulgy chest. He then waved at the other men, telling them to step back. “Alright.” The huge guy said.“I will let everyone watch how I crush you with my bare hands.” He added while he cracked his knuckles. Ethan took a step back to observe his opponent and seeing the bulging muscles on his arms and chest as well as the swelling and redness on his body, Ethan im
