Ray tried to recall the events of the previous day. It was clear he had been about to sleep with Aboli, but then he fainted. He was certain this was related to Aboli and the Campbell family. It was even possible that the Campbell family was trying to harm him to replace the position of the Hamel family. Ray looked at his assistant, his eyes filled with coldness and malice. He spoke in a low voice, "I'm sure this is related to the Campbell family!" Pausing for a moment, he added, "I remember Aboli has a fiancé, right? It's time to inform her prospective husband. Tell him that if he arrives late, Aboli will go with another man. Just say it like that."The assistant immediately understood Ray's intention. He nodded and replied, "I'll handle it as soon as possible."Ray said nothing more, closing his eyes on the hospital bed as if intending to recover. Only he knew the speed at which his thoughts were racing. He began to feel the danger; he couldn't afford to let himself sink into t

Everything proceeded as such, Ethan and Aboli went to John’s birthday party as a pair. Ethan dressed as usual, which is to say, it seemed as though he had no concept of personal grooming. However, his excessively perfect appearance masked this carelessness.This was almost the first thing Aboli thought when she saw Ethan standing by the road in black trousers and a black shirt, waiting for her car.Others on such occasions might have been a bit hesitant, at least they would have worn suits. Especially when given the chance to accompany beautiful women, they would not hesitate to showcase their wealth, perhaps by driving a luxury car, wearing an expensive watch, or donning some other form of luxurious jewelry.However, Ethan was different. It appeared that he didn’t care much about what others thought of him and had no intention of making any flirtatious moves.Aboli thought this as Ethan got into the car, glanced at her, and nodded, saying, "Alright, let's go."The car quickly start
Alice seemed to have predicted that Ethan would respond this way. Ever since their divorce and the series of misunderstandings that followed, Ethan had never wanted to have a private conversation with her, not even once."Can’t we talk privately, Ethan? Do you really not want to give me even one chance?" Alice said softly, and Aboli could almost see the pain in her eyes.Unmoved, Ethan replied, "I’ve already given you plenty of chances before. We can’t go back, you know that, Alice."Alice bit her lip and closed her eyes, trying to hide her pain. At this moment, she truly didn’t know what to do. She knew she shouldn’t hope, shouldn’t chase after Ethan like this—it was so undignified.She took a deep breath, telling herself that this would be the last time she sought out Ethan to talk. After all, there was no longer any connection between them.Alice spoke softly, "You were right, Ethan. Boster really is a fraud. I’m very sorry for not trusting you before." Perhaps she had never tru
Ryan's words were extremely clear; just by looking into his eyes, it was evident that he despised and mocked Ethan.Ethan looked at Ryan without saying a word. Instead, John was the first to speak: "Ryan, I know you have power in your hands, but this is my party. You should at least show a certain level of respect. Coming here to cause trouble is not the behavior expected of an heir of one of the three great families."Upon hearing John's words, Ryan sneered: "For Mr. John to protect someone so fiercely, it seems this person is not simple at all, huh?"John said nothing, but Ryan stepped forward as if he wanted to drag Ethan out immediately.However, John quickly stepped in front of Ethan, coldly saying, "If you touch Ethan, you are opposing John Cartie."Ryan raised an eyebrow, seemingly surprised that John would go to such lengths to protect Ethan. He looked at Ethan, then back at John, smirking as he said, "The future is still long."After a pause, he smiled. Though it was a brigh
Ryan took a deep breath and then stepped forward to knock on the door. Although the house was old, it looked quite spacious at a glance. He wondered if anyone would hear him knocking.Just as Ryan was wondering this, the door suddenly opened after he knocked twice, as if someone had been standing behind it, waiting for someone to knock.Instinctively, Ryan stepped back a little, furrowing his brows.At that moment, the person who opened the door revealed himself. He was an elderly man, perhaps over sixty years old, standing straight and dressed in a butler's outfit that seemed out of place with the shabby exterior of the house.Seeing Ryan, the old man smiled and asked, "Are you looking for the young master? He hasn't woken up yet. If you can, please wait."Ryan looked at the man who resembled a butler, his eyes deepening slightly, then nodded and said, "Alright, I'll wait."The butler, named Cale, then slowly led the way for Ryan.As Ryan entered, he noticed that the house was quit
Ryan looked at the bodies of animals like toads and cockroaches and couldn’t help but gulp. Wait a minute, he wasn’t going to have to eat those, right?While Ryan was lost in deep contemplation, Ethan had already sat down and spoke in a low voice, “First of all, the fee for saving you won’t be cheap. Furthermore, after paying the fee, in the future, you’ll need to use the Texas family to support me.”At this, Ryan became serious.He looked at Ethan and said, “As long as it doesn’t affect the entire Texas family. Moreover, after this, if you truly cure me, even if you don’t want to, I will have the entire Texas family follow you!”Ethan: “... It certainly won’t be anything excessive.” Moreover, Ethan couldn’t help but marvel at how quickly Ryan had changed his attitude.Yesterday, he had been completely skeptical, but today, after drinking Cale’s medicinal concoction and feeling slightly better, he was ready to cling to Ethan’s every word.Ethan didn’t show any reaction to this.He loo
