Ethan turned, surprised to see Carson's arrival. Carson's powerful, imposing figure emanated a terrifyingly intimidating aura that slightly shook Ethan's confidence."Oh, just a little conversation," he replied casually, though a trace of fear glimmered in his eyes.Carson glanced at Alison, ensuring she was okay before returning to Ethan. "Let her go now. She's my wife; don't bother her." Carson's voice was firm, showcasing a fierce determination to defend his wife. Although he appeared relaxed, his aura and intimidation were intense.Alison felt relieved to see Carson arrive as if all the tension within her was slowly dissipating. "Honey, I'm fine. Thank you," she said, trying to calm him.Seeing this, Carson appeared reassured. Meanwhile, Ethan felt embarrassed, realizing many eyes were on him. He suspected people whispering about him, feeding into his negative thoughts."Oh, so he's your husband?" Ethan looked Carson up and down repeatedly. "How unworthy. You settled for a husband
After Alison and Charlotte left, Carson could no longer hold back his emotions. He stepped forward and stood directly before Ethan, his face filled with anger. Carson clenched his fists and gave a small smile. His opponent was only a young man in his twenties—not a challenging adversary. The tension only grew as Ethan showed no signs of backing down.Seeing this, Ethan's friends felt compelled to intervene, surrounding Carson from all sides."You think you're a tough guy, huh? It's funny that you'd dare to challenge me here. You should know this place is like my second home," he said confidently.Ethan believed he could defeat Carson with the help of his friends. They were now a group of ten young men with strong and muscular builds. Fighting wasn't new to them; they often brawled on this beach and always won. This time, they felt equally confident."This won't change anything," Carson said.Ethan laughed. "You're too confident. I'm going to shatter that confidence," he said, brimming
They were in their room and sleeping soundly that night. They had received exceptional service. Before bed, they soaked in a hot tub and enjoyed expensive green tea. After that, the hotel staff gave them massages. Of course, their dinner was also provided with low-calorie food. There was also a free gym available for anyone to use. Carson planned to go there in the evening after Alison and Charlotte had slept. He wanted to keep his muscles trained. Most importantly, there was no one else on that floor. All the rooms were vacant because Carson had rented them out. He didn't want anyone disturbing his holiday, so he had booked the entire tenth floor for himself. His phone vibrated as he sat on the sofa, catching his breath after soaking. With a hip-hop ringtone from his favourite artist, he saw Darwis' name appear on the screen. He answered the call. "What's up?" Carson asked, trying to sound casual. "Sir, is there anything I can help you with? Or is there something I need to
As Alison was about to leave with Charlotte, the woman suddenly grabbed her hand. This made Alison turn around. "What is it?" she asked. "How about we go shopping? I know some nice stores here," she said enthusiastically. The woman was full of friendly smiles. "You'll love it. Trust me." She was trying to reassure Alison. At first, Alison was suspicious, but after thinking it over, she realized she didn't have any important plans. She considered that it wouldn't hurt to give this woman a chance. Finally, Alison nodded. "Alright, I guess it won't hurt to shop occasionally," she agreed to the woman's suggestion. They walked along the sidewalk toward a shopping area near the hotel. It was not far—about 100 meters away—but they just needed to walk a few meters, as the location was still within the hotel grounds. The woman glanced at Alison, who seemed to be keeping her distance. She began to introduce herself. "Oh, sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Victoria. Nic
Victoria finally arrived, but she was immediately surrounded by the thugs. Her expression turned to fear as she took in the situation around her. She had only intended to stop Alison because she hadn't finished exploiting her yet. Unfortunately, this action had led her into a much more serious predicament."What's going on here? What is this?" Victoria shouted, but her voice only added to the tension in the air.One of the thugs glared at Victoria with sharp eyes. They hadn't expected to get another victim. They weren't even looking for trouble; it just came to them. Moreover, this newly arrived woman was wearing what appeared to be luxurious clothing, which piqued their interest."Hand over your money. If you don't, we'll hurt you," he threatened, stepping closer to Alison and Victoria.Victoria assessed the increasingly threatening situation, causing her to panic even more. Of course, she didn't want to become a victim of these people. She quickly had an idea and shoved Alison forwa
Their vacation in this tropical city was really great. Carson Alison and their little daughter Charlotte had been vacationing there for 14 days, and they would enjoy this vacation for maybe 4 or 5 more days. The luxury hotel on the white sandy beach was the perfect choice. Clear blue skies and cool sea breezes continue to decorate their vacation. As they stepped into the hotel lobby, they were greeted with a lobby decorated with beautiful ornaments and colorful tropical plants.The hotel offered a range of luxurious facilities, including a spacious swimming pool with a bar inside, as well as direct access to the beautiful beach. They spent the morning splashing around, having fun in the sun, and enjoying the gentle waves. Charlotte couldn't stop laughing as she ran after the waves, while Carson and Alison smiled as they watched their daughter.After their time at the beach, they explored the colorful local market and its great shops. Alison didn't want to miss the opportunity to buy a
As Carson sat in the hospital waiting room, she tried to calm down. Suddenly, an old grandmother approached him. Her wrinkled face smiled kindly. The grandmother tapped Carson on the shoulder. That made Carson turn his head. When she turned her head, Carson was shocked and immediately smiled."It turns out you're here. It's good to see you again, young man," she said in a grateful tone.Carson felt warm in his heart when he heard those words. The grandmother was one of the people Carson had helped some time ago. Once, the grandmother almost died, but she managed to survive because of Carson. The incident was in the park."Ah, it turns out that you are fine now. Thank goodness you have fully recovered," he said with a friendly smile."It's all thanks to you. I might not be in this world if you hadn't been there." The grandmother was so grateful to have been saved. She would never forget that. She then looked at Carson curiously. "Why are you here? Are you one of the doctors in this hos
Carson stared at the young Doctor with a cold gaze, feeling the pain of the demeaning words that the young Doctor kept throwing out. It was just that he remained silent because he didn't want any fuss. It's just that the more he kept quiet, the bigger this young Doctor got. Carson was cornered by the young Doctor. Hearing that, the grandmother, saved by Carson, tried to defend herself. She didn't want Carson to be belittled like that."Son," said the grandmother firmly, "you must respect others. Carson is my lifesaver. Without him, I might not be here. No matter what, he's still my savior. You should appreciate him more."The young Doctor chuckled. He was still adamant about his opinion and would never change it. He was stubborn and did not want to lose. If he admitted Carson, it would make him feel defeated, so she didn't want to admit him."But it was all just a coincidence. Luck can't be used as a basis if he can treat someone. The actions he took were too risky." Then he looked at
