It was finally the day, the day that Ethan, James, and his father had been waiting for. They were to go see Miles and bring him to help James' mother.Although Ethan wasn't that close to Miles and he was certain that he'd face an insult from Miles before being listened to, Ethan was willing to do it; he was willing to go.He wasn't sure why the RRS system had kept warning him all night not to go, but he wasn't going to look back. He had assumed it to be that the RRS system was just strict and wanted him to base his life on revenge alone.Just as Ethan's thoughts were on the task ahead, his phone vibrated, pulling his attention towards it. The second he picked it up, he saw that it was James who was calling him.“Hello, Sir,” James started the second that Ethan picked up the call, placing it to his ear.“Is there a problem, James?” Ethan panicked for a second, thinking that his mother might have died just as they were getting prepared to leave for Doctor Miles.“What? No, no problem at
“Master! The spies that were sent have returned with words that they've moved out of Mr. Harry's mansion!” A hefty man rushed into the house, bowing his head before a masked man who was playing chess alone at the table.A sneer curled up on his lips as he was satisfied with the information he had just received from one of his men. He had sent men to trail Ethan, and he'd do just anything to make sure that he'd end Ethan's life.“That's good...” he emitted, his voice carrying a sense of anger and deceit as he focused on the chess game.“What are we going to do next, Master? We are waiting for your response and order!”“Where are they now?” The masked man asked, and with a bow, his servant responded to him.“They are at the bridge, sir!”“That's good then. Once they cross the bridge, attack, and remember, do not leave any of them breathing!” He gave his command, making his servant snap his gaze to him with his eyes bulging out.“Is there a problem?” He paused his chess game as he lifted
"Start the car right now, turn it around, and get us out of here! Immediately!" Ethan gave the order, and because they were all scared, his driver didn't question him.He started the car and, without hesitation, turned it around. Just as he was about to make his escape, one of the men ran towards the car."You are going nowhere, Ethan!" the man growled as he used the metallic bat in his hand to smash the windshield, making the glass shatter immediately.Ethan and Mr. Harry, who sat in the back, had to dodge the pieces of glass. They hid right behind the car seat, trying their best to stay alive."What the hell do they think they are doing? Who the fuck are they?" Ethan growled, anger written all over his face, his eyes bulging with fury."You want to know who we are? This is who we are!" The man who had struck Ethan's car snarled as he waved his hands to both sides.Ethan couldn't believe this was happening to him."I think they want you, Ethan!" Mr. Harry observed, lifting his head t
Ethan stood firm, eyes blazing with determination as a swarm of men charged toward him. His breath came in ragged gasps, but his resolve only grew stronger. He believed with every fibre of his being that he could defeat them all, leaving none standing.He smirked, remembering the moment of victory when he had forced Mr. Han to kneel and beg for mercy. "Even if I die today," he muttered to himself, "I'll die happy knowing I made him beg.""Get him! Don't let him escape!" their leader barked, and the men surged forward, intent on capturing Ethan. They had no intention of letting him go; their loyalty to their leader was absolute.As they closed in, Ethan sprang into action. With lightning speed, he grabbed each man by the neck and smashed them to the ground. His movements were a blur, a testament to his newfound agility. He had never fought with such intensity before, each blow fueled by a deep-seated need to survive."Arrrggghhh!" they roared, charging at him with ferocity. But Ethan
"Sir!! Sir Ethan!?" Ethan's driver called as he shook Ethan's unconscious body on the ground. At this point, Mr. Harry was already bleeding profusely, and Ethan couldn't utter a single word. They were both mute and immoveable."I have to hurry! I must get them to a safe place… To a hospital at least!"*********The beeping sound of the life machine in the room, produced by the Newhope Robotics Company, echoed loudly, causing throbbing aches for Ethan.Opening his eyes slowly, he was first welcomed by the noisy beeping sound, followed by the stench of blood and drugs oozing in his room."Where am I?" he mumbled, trying to get a hint of where exactly he was. Slowly, his head tilted to the left, and just then, he caught sight of drugs and a syringe on the nightstand closer to him."What the hell happened?" He sat up slowly in confusion, but at that moment, throbbing aches overwhelmed him, making him clench his head tightly and shut his eyes in intense pain."Fuck!! Help!" he gritted, the
“No, Ethan, I should be blamed for this, for everything that is happening! My mother is dying, and my father is in this state. I shouldn't have let him go alone… I just shouldn't have!” James mumbled softly, his heart bleeding and racing with fear of what might happen next to him or his father.At first, he was scared of losing his mother, but as it stood now, it was obvious that his father could die before his mother, which would break him down immediately.“No, James… don't say that, don't blame yourself for anything. I was there, and I couldn't save him from those men. I should be killed myself!” Ethan walked over to where James was seated and with a heavy sigh leaving his lips, he placed his hand right on James' shoulder, feeling bad for him, feeling bad for everything that had happened.“You don't get it, Ethan… if only I was…” He was going to keep talking, but at that moment, Ethan was sick and tired of hearing James cry like he was some little kid.“I promise to find out who at
Exiting the hospital, a Rolls Royce Phantom car stormed up before Ethan. His car had been replaced a few minutes after the attack.With a sneer tugging at the side of his lips, he nodded his head, his hand plunging into his pockets as he stared at the new baby before him.“I'll make you pay dearly… I just can't wait to find out who you truly are!” Ethan mumbled before he lifted his face to his driver, who had opened the door for him to get into the car.The second he got into the car, his driver shut the door, running over to his side to open it, get into the car, and ignite the engine.They were about to leave when Ethan turned to look out of the window. Right before him, by the door, stood James with a sad look on his face.“I'll do what's right this time, James! I will!” Ethan mumbled to himself before he darted his gaze away from where James stood.“Let's go!” he commanded his driver, who immediately nodded his head and zoomed out of sight, stepping on the accelerator.Ethan itche
“There must be a change of assistant! He isn't functioning as he should, Sir Ethan, and there must be a change!” One of the executives declared, making Ethan's brows furrow immediately as he stared at the man who had spewed such nonsense from his mouth.They would have just discussed something else. Something that didn't have to involve Ethan changing his assistant. Something that shouldn't have to do with Ethan changing James.James was the main reason why Ethan had escaped death for the first time. James was his best friend and more like family. James, above all, was the only one that he could trust, and as it stood right now, there was definitely no way he was going to push him aside and pick up some new stranger that he knew nothing about.“I am not changing my assistant, and that is final! He stays with me, and that is the end of it all!” Ethan stood his ground.He couldn't believe that Mr. Han had come to the company just to do one thing: discuss changing his assistant.Mr. Han
