Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise 37. Waiting Room
As Mr. Smith opened the door to the postoperative room, he perceived an atmosphere of calm and meticulous care. The room was colored white, invoking a sense of purity and sterility. Soft, diffused lighting bathed the space, providing a soothing ambiance that promoted rest and recovery. His eyes scanned the room, taking in the gentle hum of medical equipment, which subtly indicated the presence of advanced technology. Monitors displayed vital signs, their rhythmic beeps serving as a reassuring melody, monitoring the patients' progress. Intricate lines of IV drips traversed overhead, resembling delicate vines, delivering essential fluids and medications to aid in the healing process. But there was more to the scene. Two sick beds occupied the room, placed side by side, with Mr. Alexander in one and Victoria in the other. Both of them lay with closed eyes, their stillness contrasting with the beeping monitors that assured their vitality. To Mr. Smith's surprise, the room was devoid of
Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise 38. F**k That!
And at that moment, with an order flowing from Isabella's mouth like the waters of the Red Sea, the security guard swiftly disengaged the pistol's safety and slowly positioned his finger on the trigger."Any last words, Guard?" He voiced it, his tone filled with mockery and satisfaction for a job well done, like a guard who would get a raise after this.As this transpired, Mr. Smith's acute senses were heightened. Being a trained professional, his skills were what led Augustus Markwood to employ him in the first place. Without even looking at a gun, he could discern its model from the sound of its clicks alone. This heightened perception had always been a part of him, since his military days.Amidst it all, Mr. Smith chuckled, even with the pistol still pressed against his head, and remarked, "For a personal guard, you should wield a semi-automatic pistol, something like an M1911, not this single shot sounding like a feeble pop gun." Mr. Smith retorted with a hint of disdain, his voic
Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise 39. Isabella’s Co-operation.
After about a minute of pleading, Isabella and Mr. Smith locked eyes, and he finally opened his mouth to speak."It was never my master's intention to be hostile towards you or your parents. He is waiting for you in the waiting room," Mr. Smith stated, his voice calm and composed. He proceeded to disassemble the pistol into pieces and walked over to the security guard, who still lay on the floor.As he approached, Mr. Smith knelt down, releasing a deep breath and taking a second look at the weakened security guard.The guard's face exhibited clear signs of his feebleness; his expression was cautious, anticipating any potential threat from Mr. Smith, as if seeking to protect himself in the most weary way possible.Chuckling at the guard's wary demeanor, Mr. Smith placed each disassembled piece of the pistol into the guard's suit pocket. He then patted him on the shoulder, akin to a captain assuring one of his soldiers of a successful mission, and spoke to him. "You are not worthy to be
Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise 40. The Wake
At the moment Ethan left the hospital, Isabella's eyes were filled with desperation, reflecting her sense of urgency. However, she knew it wasn't the appropriate time to spring into action and fulfill Ethan's wishes. Instead, she needed to return to the postoperative room and check on her parents once again.Upon entering the postoperative room, Isabella found Victorial already awake, but the same couldn't be said for Alexander. Despite her mother's wakefulness, Victorial's eyes still radiated weariness, indicating her exhaustion and unwillingness to engage in conversation. Isabella empathized with her mother, knowing the immense challenges she had endured. She sat down on her mother's bed, gently placing her palm over Victorial's, seeking comfort in their connection.The room remained enveloped in silence, except for the rhythmic beeping of the monitor tracking Alexander's heart rate. Just then, the doctor entered the room, locking eyes with Victorial, who was fully awake, and glanci

The security guard revved the engine with such force that smoke billowed from the car's tires, enveloping the surroundings like an ominous cloud of uncertainty."Fasten your seat belt. This should be interesting," the security guard warned, and immediately, the car tires screeched, spinning like a whirling tornado.At that instant, the reporters who had been knocking on the car and demanding an audience quickly retreated, avoiding the risk of being hit as they watched the car speed away like frightened deer fleeing from an oncoming predator. The screeching tires echoed like a siren, piercing the air with urgency as the car accelerated with the force of a bullet leaving the barrel of a gun. The car shook violently, struggling to maintain control and swerving from side to side."Hold on!" the security guard screamed, his voice barely audible over the chaos. He knew that speaking softly would be futile.The car danced from left to right, teetering on the edge of a wild somersault if caut
Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise 42. The Beach House
Suddenly, Isabella heard a beep on her phone while she was still engrossed in scrolling through her social media accounts, drawn to it like a magnet to metal, unable to resist its allure. When she viewed the notification, she noticed that it wasn't from her other social media accounts or an instant messaging app but from YouTube.This was an unusual notification for her since she had never received personal notifications on this app before, except for updates about her favorite shows. Being tagged in a live video was something she didn't experience every day, and so she pressed her finger on the notification button, and her phone opened up like a sinner confessing all her sins to a priest."Quiet!" Isabella yelled at Sophia, who was still weeping like a frightened child caught in a storm, distracting her from listening to the video she had just played."You fool, how dare you betray the hand that has fed you?" She exclaimed under her breath, her eyes fixed on her phone screen like a h
Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise 43. The News and Eldridge
"How did you do it?" Davis asked in wonder, his mouth agape like a child beholding something fascinating for the first time. He hadn't expected the reporters to back off so easily, yet they did, and Isabella got into the car.Still, Isabella didn't answer Davis' question. Her responses were conveyed through a smug smirk that played gently on her cheek like traffic lights. And to Sophia, who looked at her in this very moment, Isabella seemed to remain seething with vexation, akin to African bean cakes dropped into hot oil."Let's go," Isabella suddenly voiced, and like an obedient servant obeying his master, Davis gently placed his finger on his car's start button. Immediately, like a lioness roaring in the jungle, the car came to life again.As he turned the car wheels to the right and gently pressed his foot on the pedal, guiding the car out of the park and toward the beach house gate, where the security personnel had already created a path, Davis glanced at the car's rearview mirror
Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise 44. The Shock And The Intention
Having waited for far too long, Davis was still answering the reporters' different questions like a parrot whose beak had been poked and couldn't stop squawking. At this point, Isabella could no longer take it, as she saw it as total bullsh*t. She wondered about the questions and answers Davis had given to the reporters, and she knew it was time to bail him out and escape the relentless questioning lest he say something they would regret forever.Like an angry queen of doom roaring at her subjects, Isabella stepped out of the car and hurried towards the reporters, who also rushed towards her as they saw her coming to them.As they both reached each other and the cameramen were behind the female reporter, before Isabella could say anything, the female reporter thrust her microphone into Isabella's mouth and another mic into her own as she asked,"Ms. Isabella Rosewood, Mr. Davis John said your father is a thief who masterminded the whole diversion of the company's funds to his own pers
