Feeling Ancel Smith's gaze, Londyn shrank back in fear, quickly moving to stand behind Ethan.At this moment, Ethan finally remembered who Ancel was.He was a ruffian who bullied Ethan countless times while attending high school, near Mr. Atticus' former residence.Back then, Ethan's small stature made him an easy target.Furthermore, his body was frail, subject to Ancel's daily torment.Only after completing secondary school and progressing to high school was Ethan able to escape Ancel's grasp.However, five years before Sapphire Dhara trapped Ethan in jail, Ancel made trouble by visiting his family.At that time, Ethan called the police, landing Ancel in a reform school for over half a year.Unexpectedly, Ethan once again crossed paths with Ancel here.Yet, seeing how Ancel was ogling Londyn, Ethan's countenance swiftly turned icy."Ancel, out of respect for our past as classmates, I would advise you to tread carefully lest you wish to disappear from this world."Although Ethan's wo
"Daddy, please don't go today?! I want to sleep with you and Mommy!"Sitting at the dining table, little London pleaded, incessantly shaking Ethan's arm.Ethan glanced at Londyn, but she only cleared her throat before speaking firmly."Ahem, London, you can't bother Daddy while he's eating."Seeing her mother's stern look, London reluctantly lowered her head, then slowly started stirring her food, showing little interest in eating.Seeing this, Ethan's heart ached slightly. With a resigned sigh, he said,"Alright, Daddy will sleep with you tonight! I won't go to work and will tell you a fairy tale!"The previously disheartened little girl brightened instantly upon hearing Ethan's promise."Is that so, father?!""Of course, sweetheart. Would Daddy lie to you?!""Hurrah for Daddy, the best Daddy in the world!""Now finish your food, no wasting, alright?!""Yes, Daddy!"Watching their playful banter, Londyn could not help but roll her eyes.However, seeing her daughter happily digging in
"Alright, then, eat up your food.Today, Daddy will take you out to play!"Ethan felt immense heartache. He gently ruffled his daughter's hair.Hearing Ethan agree to take her out, his daughter was overjoyed. She jumped up and clapped her hands in delight."Hooray for Daddy! Daddy is the best!"And so, Ethan and his daughter quickly finished their breakfast, then the two hailed a taxi and left."Captain, I hope I'm not disturbing you?!"At that moment, Spinel conversed with Ethan while casually glancing at daughter'Ethan, who was playing on a swing in a nearby park.Initially, Ethan planned to take his daughter for a city tour, followed by a visit to a toy store.However, Spinel unexpectedly showed up, claiming to have urgent news to report.So, Ethan let his daughter play on the swing while he stepped aside to talk with Spinel."What is it? Speak freely; there are no third parties around here!"Hearing this, Spinel didn't hesitate any longer and directly informed Ethan about what had
Seeing the target his daughter had pointed out, Ethan was surprised, glancing at his daughter. "Does mommy like this kind of stuffed animal?" "Yes, she does!" The little girl was quite sure as she nodded. At this point, Ethan didn't ponder any longer. He chose the target with the biggest plushie on the shelf and squeezed the rifle trigger. Bang!... Thud! Ethan's air rifle pellet hit the target precisely from over ten meters away. Immediately, the target was knocked down, accompanied by his daughter's elated cheer. "Hooray, Daddy! You hi
Knock, knock, knock! “Who might you gentlemen be? What brings you to our humble corner?" A middle-aged man, with a square face and a cleanly shaved head, a weathered rose tattoo prominently marking his upper left arm, barred the way to Ethan's car. He rapped gently on the vehicle's door with an expectant look on his face. Behind this imposing figure stood five or six younger men, each adorned with similar tattoos on their arms. Observing this spectacle, Ethan chose to remain silent. However, Abraham, otherwise known as the breezy young man with the nom de guerre 'Fox', couldn't help but pop his head out of the car. He flamboyantly waved his hand and called out to the man in a jovial tone. “Baldy, long time no see! How have you been?” At the sound of Abraham's voice, the older man's eyebrows rose sharply. Yet, recognizing a familiar face, he soon softened his stern expression somewhat, though his countenance didn't entirely lighten. "Abraham, what brings you to this part of town
“Kill him for me!" As his command echoed, the men following the man in floral trousers rushed forward, their machetes aiming for the middle-aged man. At this point, Spinel in the car suddenly opened the door. At the same time, Abraham and Joel also got out, glaring at the Dark Dragon gang and shouting loudly. "What are you trying to do? Who dares to cause trouble on our boss's turf?!” Hearing Spinel and the others' shout, the man in floral trousers was taken aback, quickly glancing over. "Who are you? This area now belongs to our Dark Dragon gang. If you do not wish to encounter trouble, then promptly make your exit!" The sudden appearance of the Spinel members caused the flower-pants clad man to flinch slightly. But upon seeing that there were only three of them, he did not continue to take notice, quickly shooing the trio away with a dismissive wave of his hand. At this point, witnessing the Abrahams unexpectedly storm out of the car, the middle-aged man couldn't help but r
"Damn it, even a simple task like that you couldn't handle, what the hell do I keep you around for?!" In the living room of a large mansion by the river, in the suburbs of New Single city, a shirtless middle-aged man, with a milling cutter in hand, still a bit bloodied, slammed his hand onto the table in anger. Kneeling in front of him was the man in floral pants who had just led his gang to the port. The man in floral pants, startled by the sudden outburst, trembled and kept his head low, not daring to look up. "Speak, why aren't you talking now? I sent you with such a large group, you couldn't handle even one bald man? What did you say to me earlier? You were going to bring his head to me? Where is his head now?!" The middle-aged man, Leon, suddenly stood up, landing several heavy kicks on the man in the floral pants. His kicks were so powerful that the man in floral pants couldn't contain himself and spit out a mouthful of fresh blood. Yet he didn't dare utter a word. Becaus
“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
