As far as Ethan knew, his mother had gone missing over half a year ago. It was also around the time the Artificial Superintelligence research project entered its final stages of completion. However, Ethan couldn't determine these things. Until now, everything he knew about his mother's organization came from the Artificial Superintelligence system in his head, and he had only heard about it from Gaius and Dr. Suri."Excuse me, and your food has arrived. May I come in to serve you?"As the two sat silently facing each other in the room, a sudden sound came from the outside, that of a server. Ethan glanced briefly at Dr. Suri, then directed his gaze towards the door and responded,"Come in!"After a moment, the restaurant's waitress entered, placing the food neatly on the table. Seeing that the two had no further requests, she quickly left.Waiting for the restaurant staff to leave, Ethan finally continued the conversation."Alright, the food has been served, and it's past noon. We shou
Seeing the aggressive attitude of the young man, Ethan didn't react. He walked straight up to Selena and observed her for a moment. Then, the corner of his mouth curled up, revealing a wicked grin."After so many years apart, I never thought you'd grow up so much!"Upon recognizing Ethan's intrusive gaze sweeping over her body, Selena's youthful face couldn't help but display a blush of embarrassment.Especially after catching his gaze lingering on certain parts of her body, she became even more ashamed and spoke up."Ethan, you dare to tease me!"Watching the actions and words of the two at this moment, it was impossible not to misunderstand their relationship. Moreover, at this moment, Tarub, who had feelings for Selena, didn't even know the true nature of their relationship. For a moment, it felt as if steam was rising from his head.How dare this shameless couple flirts in front of him?"Damn it, who the hell are you? What's your relationship with her?"Tarub's heart was filled wi
Seeing Ethan's somber demeanor, filled with murderous intent, Tarub suddenly recalled that the person before him wasn't someone to be trifled with. However, his people were about to arrive, so he couldn't afford to appear weak. Therefore, Tarub pretended composed, straightened his back, puffed his chest, and faced Ethan.However, his voice trembled slightly, betraying his feigned composure."What... what do you want? Don't think that I'm afraid of you! I've already called my people. If you dare, wait here. My people... will beat you to a pulp!""Really?"For some reason, seeing Ethan's disdainful sneer, Tarub felt increasingly uneasy and scared.Fortunately, his phone rang at that moment, and on the other end were the thugs he wanted to summon."Where are you guys? Okay, hurry up. I'm near the beach!"Upon learning that the thugs were only a few hundred meters away, Tarub's mood quickly shifted to calm, his eyes filled with a provocative glint as he stared at Ethan."You only know how
A moment ago, when she saw the gangsters speeding towards them, her heart was filled with panic. But in just a short time, these people had been frightened away by her cousin. Moreover, their demeanor towards Ethan was highly respectful, as if they had encountered a deity.It wasn't until Ethan tightly grasped her hand that she managed to react, her face flushed with a hint of embarrassment."Ethan…"As if knowing exactly what his cousin wanted to ask, Ethan smiled softly and shook his head."Don't ask. Just follow me!"Hearing this, Selena didn't know what to think and just let Ethan lead her by the hand.Arriving at the entrance of a rather famous grilled fish restaurant in the city, Ethan finally stopped in his tracks. Just as he was about to lead Selena inside to sit down, his gaze suddenly caught the silhouettes of two people emerging from a car parked in front of a nearby hotel. At that moment, his movements involuntarily paused.From the car descended a middle-aged man, seeming
Knock! Knock!"Ethan, Ethan! What exactly are you doing in there? Are you okay?"Just as Ethan overheard the two of them discussing something important, the bathroom door was suddenly knocked on forcefully, followed by an apprehensive voice of Selena.Ethan almost forgot that he had brought his cousin into the hotel and hid in the bathroom for nearly half an hour.Knowing that Selena was worried about him, Ethan could only reply in a low voice."I'm fine. I just felt unwell and wanted to sit here for a while!"Although Ethan's reason was not very convincing, Selena did not continue to question him. She softly uttered a "hmm" and stopped knocking on the door.However, Ethan noticed that Selena's voice sounded a bit unusual. Nevertheless, listening to the conversation between the two people in room 601 was more important. So, Ethan should have focused on the issue. He shook his head and pressed his ear against the bathroom wall to eavesdrop.While talking to Selena earlier, Ethan wonder
Afterward, he opened the door and stepped out of the bathroom. But having only taken half a step, Ethan's face couldn't help but freeze, his eyes widening in disbelief as if he couldn't fathom the situation unfolding before him."You…""Ethan?!"At this moment, not a single piece of cloth remained on Selena's body, one hand placed on her fair chest, gently kneading and moaning softly. Her other hand unknowingly slipped into her panties, and her face flushed like a fever.Even though Ethan had exceptional self-control, seeing such a steamy scene at this moment, he momentarily froze in place, almost spurting blood from his nostrils."Selena, what... what happened to you?"Forcing down a gulp of saliva, Ethan quickly averted his gaze from Selena's body. Indeed, the scene just now was far too eye-catching. Furthermore, after scanning around, he realized that the once-innocent girl had developed quite well.Her three measurements were perfect, comparable to any beauty queen or a famous act
After finishing the phone call with the receptionist, Ethan looked at the mess in his hands.After pondering for a moment, he finally decided to get up and knock on the bathroom door."Selena, how are you feeling now? These are your clothes, I'll leave them outside the door so you can put them on after your bath. I just called the reception, and they will bring you new clothes soon!"Ethan didn't wait for Selena's response and turned to leave.But he didn't expect Selena's voice to rise from the bathroom suddenly."Ethan, could you... could you bring the clothes in for me?"As she spoke, her voice grew softer, barely audible by the end. However, Ethan's hearing was excellent, and he heard her.Nonetheless, he became more awkward. He had been able to maintain his composure while rescuing Selena, but now he hesitated, unsure whether he should enter or not.Knock, knock!Just as he found himself in a dilemma, there was a sudden knock on the hotel room door. Following that, the voice of a
Upon hearing Ethan criticize her parents, Selena felt an urgency in her heart and hastily defended them: "Ethan, things aren't as you think. Initially, Tarub treated me very well and was very respectful. But for some reason, he pulled this stunt today. My parents genuinely didn't know about any of this!""Do you still want to defend them? When you were little, they almost left you to die in a feverish state because they were busy making money. It was only when I came to check on you that I discovered the situation. Do you think I don't understand your parents' true nature?"Despite their close relationship, Selena knew Ethan was prejudiced against her entire family, especially her parents. Her mother, wanting to win over Emersyn, Ethan's stepmother, had spoken ill of him several times. As a result, their families had stopped interacting years ago.Back then, Selena thought she would never see her cousin again. But now, her parents' family had fallen hard in the capital, forcing them t
