"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
"Take me to Mr. Harry's mansion right now!” Ethan commanded, and just as he had pressed for, his driver drove over to Mr. Harry's home.The minute they got there, Ethan headed straight for the door. He reached for the doorbell, pressed it twice, and the door finally opened.“Sir Ethan?” James exclaimed softly, his eyes widening in shock at seeing Ethan at the door. At this moment, James wasn't expecting to find Ethan at their house because Ethan had clearly stated that he had a meeting with the executives.“Why didn't you tell me that you were coming back home?” Ethan asked. He wasn't mad at James; he was just worried sick.He had prayed silently that James and Mr. Harry were okay and nothing more.“You seemed busy and I didn't want to disturb you. Besides, you…” Just as James was about to continue, Ethan cut in, halting his statement.“Don't ever say such, James! You don't and will never be a bother to me. Is that clear?” Ethan briefly warned, and James nodded his head although he wa
“I'm sorry, but I'm not sure I want to go through the dangers to find anyone!” James admitted, and without a second thought, he climbed out of the car. He was just scared, and he hoped that Ethan would understand that.He wanted Ethan to look at his own aspect of life. How uncomfortable it was going to make him. Just as he was walking back into his house, Ethan stormed out of the car and rushed towards him.He just wasn't going to let James leave that way. He needed James. He needed him to do what was right.“What is it again, Ethan?” James grumbled as he found Ethan standing right before him.“Let's make a comeback, James… please! We must find out who did this to me, who did this to your father!” Ethan let out, knowing that it would provoke James at this moment.He was already angry that his father was weak, so it was definitely going to give him the anger he needed to accept the deal with Ethan.“And what if the plan doesn't work out? What if they come to me!” James sounded a bit wo
