Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise Chapter 162: The Next Day
The next day was accompanied by a cold morning that arrived with a hushed breath. The air was crisp and biting, stinging the tip of Isabella’s nose with each inhale. Similarly, the floor beneath her feet crunched with each step, and her breath hung in the air like a ghostly apparition.Since the previous night, Isabella had been awake, gazing at the clouds from her hotel room view. She sauntered around the room, pondering a more effective way to approach Ethan this time.Her thoughts barely escaped the reality of her past two days' failure in trying to win Ethan with her fake love. She contemplated what she could do differently this time to make her plan work.Alexa, on the other hand, had remained silent, emitting only a chime sound every few minutes, as Isabella had plugged her phone into the wall socket and instructed her not to speak for the time being.“I still don't understand why you told me not to suggest how to win Ethan's heart today,” Alexa suddenly said. Her female robotic

"The information you gave me is more than enough, Alexa. Thank you," Isabella said suddenly, still viewing Ethan's mansion through the microscope in her eyes.Isabella appreciated Alexa's effort, and Alexa was more than curious to find out why Isabella had asked for the time the security guards changed their shift."Isabella, I am still waiting for you to tell me why you asked for the time the guards change their shifts.""Heh-heh," chuckling gently like a babbling brook, Isabella shifted the lens of the microscope away from her eyes and turned to look into the hotel room as if she wanted to see Alexa in her eyes. Wiping the back of her hand on her nose gently, like a butterfly landing on a flower petal, she began to speak."To know the time the security guards take their shift is not a big deal for me, but it is for my father's hired men," Isabella said, then continued."If today our plan becomes successful and I manage to win that fortunate pauper with my fake love, in a month or tw
Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise Chapter 164: The Doctor and The Captain
Isabella observed how the two soldiers held the doctor by his arms and escorted him out of the operating room. In no time, she witnessed them forcefully pushing the doctor to the ground at the feet of a soldier she presumed to be the captain.The captain, who appeared to be a seasoned soldier in his 50s, donned a well-worn and battle-tested military uniform. His attire bore the insignia of his rank, and his chest displayed a multitude of medals, attesting to his years of service and valor.Similarly, Isabella noticed that the fabric of his uniform exhibited signs of wear and tear, implying that he had undergone numerous missions and faced various challenges.As she inspected his boots, Isabella observed that he wore combat boots that had seen multiple deployments, covered in dust and mud from the field. A holster containing his sidearm was securely fastened to his belt, symbolizing his readiness even in non-combat situations.Upon the doctor being forced to his feet, Isabella witnesse

"What? What the f**k just happened here?" Isabella exclaimed loudly once again, like a thunderclap breaking the silence of a calm night."What do you mean, 'What the f**k just happened here?'" Alexa asked almost immediately, like a detective probing for answers in the aftermath of a mysterious crime scene."The f**king doctor just f**king shot himself, for what?" Isabella exclaimed."This is not the reason why I showed you this footage, Isabella. Did you get the message I tried to convey to you through this footage?" Alexa asked like a teacher, patiently seeking understanding from a perplexed student."What is there not to understand, Alexa? What is there? The doctor just f**king shot himself because the captain asked him to do it." Isabella exclaimed again, like someone trying to make sense of an absurd and incomprehensible situation."Tell me this is a movie and not something that happened," Isabella asked, as if hoping for a twist of reality into fiction."No, this footage is not
Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise Chapter 166: The Plan in Action
Having said all she said, Alexa's words sounded to Isabella once again like a broken record, repeating the same tune of confusion. "Isabella, as you instructed me, I have just withdrawn a small amount from Mr. Adams' illegal funds and credited your bank account with it. Do not be bothered; I made sure the fund is not traceable, so you can spend with perfect peace of mind."As soon as Alexa finished speaking, Isabella heard a beep emanating from her phone, resembling a serendipitous symphony. When her eyes fell upon the notification that appeared in the top right corner of her phone screen, she saw that it was a message.Gently pressing her finger on the message folder, like a cautious explorer treading on unfamiliar ground, Isabella began to read the message."The Rich Bank123 Havenbrook, USA,(555) 124-7867Dear Isabella,We are pleased to inform you that your account has been credited with a total of $50,000.00. Your recent financial transaction has been successfully processed.Acc
Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise Chapter 167: Explain The Plan
"Nobody ever knows this, but I will tell you so that you will understand why I chose the gift strategy to use on Ethan Mark," Isabella said and continued."When Ethan and I were newly married, I had three friends who were daughters of rich men too: Debra, Lucy, and Betty. Each night, we met at the Opulent Elegance, an expensive restaurant that only the wealthy could afford.""Every night, when we went to this restaurant to have some girls' time, Ethan was always at work, toiling away so that we could have something to eat the next day.""Wait! I have a question," Alexa interrupted."Go ahead, Alexa," Isabella said."You said you and your three friends went to Opulent Elegance every night, and this place is an expensive restaurant that only the rich can afford. But at the point when you eloped with Ethan against Master Alexander's wishes, I was the one Master Alexander used to place a restriction on all your accounts, preventing you from accessing money, and you were only allowed to re
Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise Chapter 168: Opulent Elegance
With a sad expression written all over Isabella's face as she told the story to Alexa, she heaved a sigh at that moment and continued talking. "Why would Ethan say such a thing to my friends? Why would he decide he wanted to appreciate them and ridicule me in front of them?" Isabella said. "So, what happened after he appreciated Lucy and the rest for their supposed kind gesture towards him?" "What else could have happened?" Isabella said, her voice going a little bit higher than it was before. "Lucy was confused, Betty was confused, and Debra was confused. They knew they never gave me any money to gift my husband; instead, I have always been the one to always sing it to their ears that my husband was a rich man, hence they wanted to meet him." With a carefully crafted fake smile, Lucy looked back at Ethan and asked him, "Are you not wealthy, Mr. Ethan Mark?" "Silly Ethan, how dare he not think deeply before he answers that question? He looked back at Lucy, then gazed slightly upo
Ethan Mark: Billionaire in Disguise Chapter 169: Go To Ethan
"Alright then, if you say so, let's give it a try," Alexa said."Great. The other time, you said Ethan was going to a board meeting in one hour. How many minutes are remaining for him to go now?" Isabella asked immediately."Isabella, though we spoke at length, we haven't spent up to twenty minutes. We only spoke for a minute, and if you are fast enough, you can still catch up with Ethan in 45 minutes.""Great!" Isabella sounded.Hence, at this moment, she sprang into the bath. In about ten minutes, she was done and delved into one of the clothes in the closet."I can see that you are now rushing, Isabella," Alexa's voice said at this moment."Of course I am. Could you help me calculate the total amount of time I spent in the bath?""Certainly, I can do that, Isabella. You spent a total of ten minutes and 12 seconds in the bath and exactly two minutes dressing up. Your makeup took a total of 9 minutes and 30 seconds, and you have 23 minutes and 18 seconds more to see Ethan before he h

Chapter 245: The Tears And Redemption
Pushing her back into her prison cell like a reluctant pawn being returned to its square on a chessboard, Isabella fell on the prison floor, resembling a fragile autumn leaf descending with a surrender to the inevitable embrace of the cold, hard ground. No matter how her voice had risen in anger towards her mother in the meeting room, she knew very well that she wanted to read the contents of the letter in the envelope and discover the help Ethan Mark had promised her. "Would he file for my release?" "Has he bought me a home as a sign of my forgiveness?" "Would he take me back as his wife?" Different questions rushed through her mind like a tumultuous river, each query cascading over the other. As she held the envelope in her hand, she sat at the corner of her cell and stared at it much more closely. In this way, she saw that the surface of the envelope bore a faint trace of handling, like a blank canvas marked only by the weight of the untold. She also observed the edges, crisp

Chapter 244: What Was She Told?
As Isabella saw her mother through the glass panel, her eyes first peered at her face, which was fresh and glowing like a sun-kissing morning, radiating warmth and vitality. Similarly, she observed her hair, cascading strands of silk, flowing effortlessly, resembling a gentle waterfall gracing a serene landscape.But if that were all, it would be a lie. She also noticed her dress, which was as beautiful as a field of blooming flowers, each petal a vibrant hue, creating a tapestry of elegance. Likewise, her neck, ears, and wrists were adorned with jewelry, resembling constellations adorning the night sky, each piece a sparkling star in the galaxy of her elegance.Taking in this perfect image of her mother, the thought immediately struck Isabella that her mother's current appearance was the complete inverse of hers—a mess in a uniform and in a confined space, akin to a wildflower struggling to bloom in a cramped garden bed."Been a while," Victoria Sinclair said again, immediately as Is

Chapter 243: Isabella and The Tears
Like a fish forced to live in the desert for the crime she had committed, Isabella's prison days wove a bleak tapestry of monotony and despair. The cold, unforgiving reality of prison life left her yearning for freedom, with each passing moment feeling like an eternity. The absence of familiar faces and the pervasive loneliness created a profound sense of desolation that permeated every aspect of her existence.Most especially, the daily beatings from her tormentor, Elara Whitewind, resembled an unrelenting storm, leaving Isabella's spirit battered and broken, akin to a shipwreck in the tempest of her despair. This was the reason she wished she had never set foot in the prison yard, mess hall, or communal bathroom ever again.However, whether she wished to visit those places or not, prison protocol had to be followed, leaving her no choice but to be present even in the devil's face if the protocol demanded it.In the dimly lit mess hall, clattering trays and hushed conversations fille

Chapter 242: The Heart of Gold.
Ethan said nothing in response to Mr. Alexander's words. Instead, as if he hadn't heard him, he seized a seat on the other side of the table and crossed his left leg over his right.Yet, this did not mean he spoke at this moment. The only sound was the rhythmic tapping of his fingers on the table, as if he were playing an invisible piano.In this manner, Ethan Mark exuded authority. Gazing calmly from Mr. Alexander's feet to the tangled mess of hair atop his head, he looked at him. With a serenity akin to the gentle flow of the Nile and a voice as soft as a satisfied dove contemplating a defeated jungle lion, he suddenly spoke."Kneel and apologize."Upon hearing these words, Mr. Alexander's eyes widened in shock. He never anticipated a day when he would be asked to kneel and beg for mercy, especially from the person he had always regarded as a poor bastard.Like an enslaved cat in the presence of a lion, Mr. Alexander fell to his knees as Ethan Mark instructed, pleading, "I was a ter

Chapter 241: The Visitation
Seeing how bold, tall, and dangerous this prisoner appeared and observing his audacious manner of poking at him was akin to witnessing a prowling lion, confident in its dominance, taunting its prey before the impending strike. Mr. Alexander then immediately turned his back, attempting to escape from this menacing part of the communal bathroom like a startled deer seeking refuge from the looming threat in the dark forest. "I have to run," he muttered in total fright, his voice a tremor in the echoing silence, like a desperate whisper carried away by the chilling wind of impending danger. However, if his intention was for success, it was a futile hope. "And where do you think you are running to, huh?" Another prisoner said this behind him and pushed him forward like a pawn on the unforgiving chessboard of the prison's power dynamics. As Mr. Alexander was pushed forward, he witnessed how the older prisoners immediately surrounded him. He also noticed how they revealed smirks on their c

Chapter 240: The Next Morning
After speaking for hours, the man who had conversed with him advised Mr. Alexander to get some sleep. He emphasized the importance of having alert eyes to observe any unfortunate events that might occur in the morning. And with that, Mr. Alexander retreated to the corner of his cell once again, burying his head in his ankle like a ship seeking refuge in the harbor of solitude, sheltering itself from the tempest of the prison's harsh reality. He sat on the ground, succumbing to a haunted sleep. *** The next morning revealed Mr. Alexander as a mere specter of resilience, marked by the weariness of a night spent in the clutches of haunted dreams, like a tattered flag fluttering weakly after enduring the relentless storm of a sleepless night. His eyes, burdened with unrest, betrayed the toll of his surroundings. Disheveled strands of hair clung to his forehead, bearing witness to the restless hours entangled in unsettling dreams. As he rose from the dark corner of his cell, his eyes fir

Chapter 239: The Eerie Prison Cell
"Long story, man," the man answered. However, if this was all he said, it was a lie. He began to unravel his own narrative, detailing how his legs became amputated and one of his hands irreparably broken and dislocated."You see, I entered this prison as a healthy man. My crimes weren't that significant. I robbed a bank because I couldn't bear to watch my daughter suffer. We hadn't eaten for days, and robbing the bank seemed like my only option." He took a deep sigh and continued talking."Yes, you guessed right. The mission was unsuccessful, and before I knew it, I was completely surrounded by the police. I had no guns, only a knife and a dagger. I never headed to the vault but collected pieces from each person I encountered in the bank. I just wanted to be able to feed my daughter and move on with life the next day.""While being surrounded, there was nothing more I could do than raise my hands in the air and let the police apprehend me. God knows it was the biggest mistake I ever m

Chapter 238: The Prison
Arriving at the prison, Mr. Alexander saw how the prison walls were imposing, resembling a fortress of despair that stood as a testament to the shadows of society. Certainly, he shook his head in regret, as he had never been to a place this horrible before.He observed cold steel bars, like sentinels of incarceration, confining notorious men whose stories were etched in the graffiti of hardened souls. Similarly, he noticed how the air hung heavy with the weight of regret, whispers of past misdeeds echoing through the dimly lit corridors.The sounds of his handcuffs tucked in chains down to his ankle made obvious sounds as he was escorted through the corridor harboring the cells of different notorious men by two prison officers whose faces lacked smiles, as if they hadn't smiled for many notorious years. Hence, he saw individuals behind these cells harboring untold secrets with their unappealing faces and frightful behaviors.Upon witnessing him and the others being escorted to their r

Chapter 237: The Question and Live on TV
“Detective Sharon, we would love to ask you a few questions if you do not mind. We are sure this would help the public understand more of what is going on,” one reporter said immediately. “Alright, please go ahead. If this would help the general public understand more of what is going on, “Thank you, Detective Sharon. Now that Mr. Alexander, Mr. X, and Attorney Hughes have been sentenced to lengthy prison terms, and Attorney Reynolds is awaiting the outcome of his investigation before he is sentenced, do you think that would be the end of this deadly organization?” “Yes, Mr. X. Mr. Alexander Rosewood and Attorney Hughes have been sentenced to prison for a very long term, and if care is not taken, for life imprisonment. However, this is not the end of the organization. As you might already know, the deadly organization is a large organization that has penetrated every sector, which could even include the police, the prison officers, the legal system, and many more, which could even i
