James watched Ethan down another glass of liquor and felt a growing concern. “I think you should stop drinking now, Ethan,” James said firmly, his voice cutting through the loud music and chatter of the club.

He stepped closer to where Ethan was slouched in his seat, clutching a nearly empty bottle of expensive liquor.

“You're going to make a mess of yourself if you continue this way,” he added, noticing the unsteady way Ethan was holding the bottle.

All of them had come to the city's most exclusive and bustling club to celebrate their recent success.

After months of hard work and endless negotiations, they had finally secured a multi-billion dollar contract that would take their company to new heights.

The celebration had started off with laughter and high spirits, but as the night wore on, Ethan had taken to drowning himself in drink after drink, his celebratory mood quickly turning into a drunken stupor.

The once lively glint in his eyes was now dulled by the effects of the al

    Reaching the vehicle, he yanked open the back door and tossed Ethan inside, his movements quick and decisive. Ethan landed in a heap on the seat, still too stunned and drunk to fully process what had happened. James slammed the door shut, his chest heaving with the effort it had taken to get him out of the club. He paused for a moment, rubbing his sore cheek, before heading to the driver’s seat, determined to get Ethan home before he could cause any more trouble.Ethan, still dazed from the alcohol, fumbled clumsily with the door handle, trying to find a way out of the car. His coordination was shot, and his mind foggy; he couldn’t figure out how to open the door, let alone escape. Every attempt he made ended in frustration as he slumped back against the seat, too drunk to understand how trapped he really was.Meanwhile, James settled into the driver’s seat, his patience worn thin by the night’s fight. He turned the key in the ignition, the car roaring to life. Glancing back at

    Gradually, Ethan's eyelids fluttered open, revealing the familiar yet oddly distant ceiling of his bedroom. The cool, white surface above him seemed to be watching him, a witness to his confusion and disorientation.As his vision cleared, he noticed a slight frown forming on his face. The ceiling looked the same as always, but something felt off. A gnawing sense of unease began to creep in. With a sense of urgency, he pushed himself upright, his movements sharp and sudden, driven by the need to understand why he felt so out of place in his own home.But just as quickly as he sat up, a sharp, pounding pain erupted in his skull, stopping him in his tracks. His hands instinctively flew to his temples, trying to ease the intense throbbing that seemed to echo with every beat of his heart."Ahhh!" he groaned, his face contorting in pain as his eyes squeezed shut, seeking help from the bright light streaming in through the windows. For a moment, he remained still, trying to steady his br

    The drive to the company felt much longer to Ethan than he had expected. He was deep in thought and felt nervous, which made the journey seem endless. Every few moments, he would glance at James, who was sitting right next to him, trying to gauge his mood.Ryker, who was also in the car, noticed Ethan's nervousness and started to think that they might have had a disagreement. However, he decided not to bring it up. James, observing Ethan's restless behaviour, saw him turning his head back and forth, but Ethan quickly looked away and focused on the file James had given him earlier that morning.“You know, Ethan,” James said, breaking the silence, “if you have something to say to me, just say it. Don’t make me guess if you’re upset or something.”Ethan shook his head and mumbled, “It’s nothing…” He avoided looking at James, who was trying to get him to talk.“Alright,” James said, sounding a bit frustrated, “but could you please stop staring at me?” He turned his eyes back to the road

    As Ethan walked into the office, a wave of fear and uncertainty hit him hard. His heart pounded in his chest, and his hands felt clammy. The last thing he wanted was to be forced to work with Gideon, the one person he couldn't stand.Ethan couldn’t understand why they would want him to sign a deal with Gideon of all people. It seemed impossible, like some cruel joke. How could they expect him to work alongside his worst enemy?“Gideon, of all investors? Are they out of their minds?” Ethan muttered under his breath, disbelief and frustration mixing in his voice. A scoff slipped out as he shook his head. He made his way over to the large window in his office, gazing out at the city below. The view was calming, a clear difference to the rage churning inside him. He slid his hands into his pockets, trying to find some comfort in the familiar action.For a moment, the peaceful scene outside started to ease his nerves. But just as he began to relax, a loud, mechanical voice echoed inside

    Ethan climbed into his car, feeling the weight of the day's stress slowly lift off his shoulders. He let out a deep sigh of relief, his eyes locking onto the road ahead as if it held the answers to everything troubling him. His grip on the steering wheel tightened, knuckles turning white, as a wave of determination surged through him. It was as if every fibre of his being was urging him to act, pushing him forward with an intensity he had never felt before.With a quick twist of the key, the engine roared to life, filling the quiet day with a steady hum. Without hesitation, he pressed his foot down on the accelerator, feeling the car lurch forward as it quickly picked up speed.

He had to get there, and nothing was going to stop him.After what felt like hours behind the wheel, Ethan finally reached the restaurant. The drive had seemed endle

    Gideon sat down heavily on the worn-out couch in his dimly lit room, the only light coming from a small lamp in the corner. His eyes locked onto the drink sitting on the table in front of him, untouched. His mind was racing, filled with one dark thought: the idea of Ethan being killed. “Why is it so hard to get to you, dear Ethan?” he muttered quietly, his voice barely above a whisper. He kept his gaze fixed on the drink, but his thoughts were far away, focused on Ethan. No matter how hard he tried, every plan he made to bring Ethan down seemed to fail miserably. Each failure left him feeling like the foolish one, and he hated that feeling. He despised how things never went his way, how his schemes fell apart almost every single time. But the desire to win, to finally get Ethan, burned within him. He wouldn’t stop until he found a way to succeed.After Mr. Andrew's death, Gideon had surprisingly remained calm. He was determined to figure out what he was doing wrong, why all his a

    Gideon hesitated for a moment, trying to find the right words. His eyes darted between Samuel and Nick, sensing their worry. “It’s nothing serious,” he finally said, but his voice lacked conviction.“Nothing serious?” Nick echoed, disbelief clear in his voice. “You nearly lost your life! You’re not the unstoppable force we used to know anymore, are you?”Gideon felt a pang of frustration at Nick’s words, but he couldn’t entirely disagree. “That’s not it. I’m just…” he started to explain, his voice trailing off as he tried to articulate the inner turmoil he’d been dealing with. But before he could finish, Samuel cut him off.“Just what?” Samuel pressed, not willing to let him off the hook so easily. “Weak? Of course, Gideon… we all know how weak you are right now!” Samuel taunted, his voice dripping with mockery. The words were meant to provoke, and they hit their mark. Gideon’s fists clenched tightly, his knuckles turning white with the effort to contain his anger.“Watch your words

    “What are they planning now that they’ve returned? Are they coming to kill me, take over my company, or, even worse, hurt me by going after the people I love?” Ethan muttered as he anxiously paced back and forth in the room. His mind raced with worry, unable to settle on what terrible thing might happen next.If there was one thing Ethan wanted more than anything, it was to keep his loved ones safe, especially his mother, who meant the world to him. The mere thought of losing her again, after everything he had fought for in this second chance at life, made his heart ache with fear. He couldn’t bear the idea of watching her suffer or die in front of him, not after all they had been through.Ethan would rather sacrifice himself than see any harm come to his mother or Ryan. At this point, he felt like he was capable of doing anything, no matter how extreme, to protect them.With his hands on his waist, Ethan continued to pace around the office. His thoughts were scattered, and he hadn

    The sudden knock at Ethan's door pulled him out of his trance, making him turn around to find out who it was. As he turned, he saw Daniel, the new chief of staff whom he was uncomfortable with, standing at his door.“Why is he here?” he panicked for a split second before calming his nerves.“Come in,” he demanded, and Daniel didn't hesitate to push the door open and walk into the office.“Hello, Mr. Ethan, I heard you are the…” Daniel began, but Ethan cut him off sharply, not wanting to allow any familiarity or genuine greetings.“Why are you at Newhope Company?” Ethan asked, his eyes searching Daniel’s for any trace of evil intentions.Daniel paused for a second. He definitely wasn't expecting Ethan to ask him such questions—not now, not ever. He thought Ethan would at least welcome him into the company, but the opposite was the case.“I… I am here to work,” he tilted his head slightly to the right, giving Ethan a confused look.“Work? Are you joking? I know you have some evil plans

    “You are our number one suspect, Mr. Ethan, so why don't you let it out? Tell us why you killed Nick? Was it for his money? To get revenge?” the detective questioned with a grin on his lips.Ethan was more confused than ever. How was he enjoying his morning, and all of a sudden, he was now a suspect in Nick’s murder?“We are waiting, Mr. Ethan!” they urged, wanting to get the truth out of him before anyone else did.Ethan, on the other hand, wouldn’t say a single word without his lawyer, but he knew he had to find a way to clear his name.“You are right; Nick bullied me back in school, and if there’s anything I wanted back then—and still do now—it’s revenge! To get revenge on every one of them that bullied me in school, and…” Ethan was about to continue, but the man cut him off before he could say another word.“And killing him now was your only option, right? Just like you said, you wanted justice, and the only way to get it was to kill them all. Who is your next target?”Ethan’s bro

    Three weeks later:Ethan felt a smile slowly spread across his lips as he got up from his bed and walked into the bathroom. His steps were light, and he couldn’t help but hum softly, his mind swirling with feelings of pure joy and relief. It had been three long weeks since he had managed to rescue his mother from the clutches of Gideon, Samuel, and Nick. The memory of that night still lingered, but the sense of triumph overpowered the fear. So far, there had been no signs that any of them would come after him. It seemed, at least for now, that he and his mother were safe, and that thought filled him with a comfort he hadn't felt in a long time.To Ethan, they were too scared to make another silly and daunting move towards him, but Ethan didn't care. As long as he had his mother, everything was fine; everything was okay to him.“Ethan? Breakfast is ready!” His mother's voice echoed through the expanse of the house as she prepared the table for their meal.“Coming, Mom!” Ethan respon

He clenched his fists, every muscle in his body tense with fury. “We both know that if anyone should kneel and beg, it’ll be you! Not me, Gideon!” Ethan shouted, his voice echoing off the walls. “Come on, tell me where the fuck she is!” His voice was raw, filled with the pain of a son desperate to save his mother.Gideon merely snorted, dismissing Ethan’s stubbornness with a wave of his hand. “Let’s go, guys… he isn’t ready!” he said, turning his back on Ethan, his arrogance on full display. He began to walk away, Samuel and Nick following behind him as if this was just another game they were playing.But Ethan wasn’t about to let them leave. Not like this. Not without answers.

    “What do you want from me?” Ethan demanded, his voice tight with frustration as his fists clenched at his sides. He knew Nick all too well—there was no way Nick would release his mother without getting exactly what he wanted in return. “Now you’re talking…” Nick said with a smirk, clearly pleased that Ethan was finally ready to listen. He spun on his heels, not wasting a second. “Come with me.” He motioned for Ethan to follow and started walking down the dimly lit hallway.Ethan hesitated for a moment, his eyes darting around the room as he checked his surroundings. He couldn’t afford to trust Nick, but he also couldn’t leave his mother in danger. Taking a deep breath, Ethan fell in step behind Nick, his senses on high alert, ready for anything.They walked in silence, the sound of their footsteps echoing through the narrow corridor. After a few tense moments, they stopped in front of a heavy, wooden door that looked old and worn. Nick paused, resting his hand on the doorknob. Witho

He desperately needed to know if his mother was still alive, but there was no way to find out until he met with Nick as they had arranged.The moment he got back, he started pacing around his room, unable to sit still. He kept glancing at the clock, watching the minutes crawl by. When the clock finally struck 10:00 p.m., a small smile appeared on his face. The time was almost here.Ethan pulled out a pair of black pants and a matching hoodie from his closet, his mind focused on the task ahead. He dressed quickly, mentally preparing himself for what lay ahead in Sin City. The mansion was quiet, and he moved with purpose, ready to slip out unnoticed.Just as he was finishing getting dressed, the door to his room swung open with a loud thud.

    Ethan shuffled closer to the nightstand, his footsteps growing heavier with each step. The dim light from the lamp cast long shadows, making the room feel eerie and suffocating. As he neared the nightstand, his heart pounded, and an icy dread began to coil around his chest.His hand trembled, and he clenched his fist tightly, fighting against the rising anxiety that twisted in his gut. His fingers finally reached the paper, which felt unnervingly cold and damp. He pulled it towards him, the edges crumpling under his grip. With a deep breath, he flipped it open, every movement feeling like it took an eternity.The message was blunt and ruthless. It simply stated that his mother was gone. The words hit him like a punch to the gut, leaving him gasping for breath as the world seemed to tilt around him.Ethan's eyes filled with tears as he stared at the letter, the sight bringing back painful memories. "They left a letter after all, just like when Ryan was taken," he mumbled, his voice

Please come get him out of here,” the bartender explained, his concern growing as he glanced at Ethan’s dishevelled state.With a curt acknowledgment, James ended the call. His frustration was palpable as he stormed out of the mansion, urgency driving his every step. The drive to the bar was swift, fueled by worry and impatience.When James arrived at the bar, the sight before him was grim. Ethan was slumped in a chair, the remnants of his drinking binge evident in the empty bottles and glasses scattered around him. The dim lighting and the messy scene struck James with a mix of shock and disappointment. “Shit!” he muttered under his breath, rushing to Ethan’s side.He gently but firmly helped Ethan sit up, noting the disorientation and tears streaking down his friend’s face.

The meeting with Samuel had yielded no answers, only deepened his anguish.His eyes stung with the threat of tears, but he fought them back with a grim determination. The workers at Samuel’s mansion watched him with a mix of curiosity and pity, their whispers barely audible over the distant hum of the night. Ethan felt their gazes like piercing needles, their silent judgement branding him as nothing more than a madman driven to the edge of sanity.Without a second glance at the mansion or its workers, Ethan climbed into his car. The engine roared to life, its growl a stark contrast to his inner troubles.
