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
The size of this device was truly minuscule, crafted with incredible precision. Ethan would never believe it to be an ordinary object. It was made with a highly advanced technology that an average person could not have hidden in a hotel room like this.As Ethan pondered the origin of this recording device, the woman's voice suddenly rang out."Who?"Startled, Ethan quickly scanned the room. There was no one else in the room besides him and her.However, how could she have detected his well-concealed hiding spot?Nonetheless, Ethan soon realized she was merely calling out as a precaution.After not sensing anyone following her, she casually stepped out of the room.This woman was exceedingly cautious. Just moments ago, her shout had nearly exposed Ethan. Luckily, she had left the room and was heading in his direction. Ethan could take advantage of the element of surprise and snatch the device from her hand.Indeed, after a moment of vigilance, the woman had let her guard down. As she a
However, she seemed to have chosen the wrong tactic to deal with Ethan this time. He was genuinely furious, reaching out and tightening his grip on her throat."Don't you dare put on such an act with me! Tell me, who are you? Why are you targeting the Smith family?"As Ethan's hand tightened around her throat, the woman found breathing increasingly difficult. Her face turned beet red, and her chest heaved violently.Seeing her in this state, Ethan felt a slight urge to slap her hard, but he remained firm and kept his grip on her.Finally, when he saw that she was about to pass out, Ethan loosened his grip."Tell me, who are you?""Cough, cough..."Freed from Ethan's grasp, the woman coughed violently before greedily gasping for air. Eventually, her complexion returned to normal.But this time, she didn't dare try to deceive Ethan and could only answer truthfully."I... I know anything. It was Keyes who
Suddenly receiving a phone call like that, and with the caller's tone being incredibly arrogant, Ethan really wanted to lose his temper, pull the person out of the phone, and give them a beating. Unfortunately, the man was really difficult to deal with. After saying his piece, he immediately hung up, not caring whether Ethan responded.For a moment, Ethan sighed heavily, trying to suppress the anger inside him. During the conversation, he realized that the voice belonged to the man in black who had accompanied Tazanna's father. He wondered what kind of identity this man had, daring to talk to him with such a demeaning attitude. If it wasn't for Ethan not wanting to reveal his true identity, he believed that with just one phone call, someone would help him settle the score with that man.However, that wasn't Ethan's style; he felt that if he wanted revenge, it was better to take matters into his own hands. After calming down, Ethan began to think about this upcoming meeting. Initially,
"You... just wait. Don't get too cocky yet. This isn't over!" Watching Ethan's figure disappearing into the VIP room, the man in the black vest cursed angrily. However, sweat was pouring down his back like rain. Although Ethan had shown mercy, the lingering pain was still highly uncomfortable for him.In the past, the man had been a soldier and even belonged to an elite special forces unit. His physical strength and combat abilities were excellent, and he had saved Wynstan on several occasions, earning his utmost trust. Having his pride crushed by a mere security guard in a shopping mall infuriated him, filling him with a vengeful determination to pay Ethan back.At this point, Ethan was unaware of the situation. Even if he knew, he would have shrugged it off dismissively. A bodyguard following a wealthy man in a second-tier city would have made Ethan a little wary a few months ago, but now such people weren't worth his concern.Pushing the door open and spotting the middle-aged man s
Once Ethan had exited the room, the bodyguards finally dared to crawl back up. Although their appearance was miserable, Ethan had shown restraint in his actions, causing them only a little more pain than usual."Boss!"At this moment, the black-suited bodyguard stood up from outside, his eyes slightly embarrassed as he looked at Wynstan."Open this up, and I want to see the content inside!"However, Wynstan didn't have time to talk much with them. He took Ethan's recording device and handed it to his bodyguards for processing.Quickly, the provocative images from hotel room 601 appeared on the computer screen. Initially, seeing these explicit images, all the men in the room couldn't help but exchange glances, their faces revealing a hint of strangeness.Fortunately, Keyes Swara's bedroom performance was subpar, lasting only a few minutes before he was panting and surrendering. Immediately after, the conversation regarding acquiring Heyday Group's shares began, along with content relat
"Wait..."Leaving the scene, Ethan could not determine the location of the black Audi, so he could only wander around the area, feeling incredibly frustrated and irritated. While fishing at a loss, unsure whether to call for backup, his phone suddenly rang in his pocket.Seeing the incoming number, Ethan couldn't help but frown: "I'm listening." The number belonged to Gaius Ragsdill. Ethan didn't know why Gaius was calling him at this time.However, after hearing his voice, Ethan finally understood the reason: "Young master, there was a gunshot in the city just now. My people reported that they saw you at the scene. Are you alright?" It turned out that these people were secretly following him. Ethan's mood sank, but he didn't want to confront them and casually replied with a smile: "Nothing happened, just an unexpected collision! Oh..."Midway through his sentence, Ethan acted as if he suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked: "By the way, did your people see a black Audi wit
