Erin collapsed to the floor and she sobbed, with her head between her legs. She felt hurt that she and her colleagues were just seen as fools while the police head ordered them around. “Erin…” Ethan called out with a worried look on her face. He killed those bastards for her so they wouldn't touch her but she didn't seem to care. He walked up to her and dragged her up.“See, I can't console you now. We still have a lot to do. The captives are still in there and they are probably terrorized. I trust that you know what to do about your boss. You'll find your way around it.” Ethan explained, holding her shoulders.“You are right.” Erin nodded, wiping her tears with her hands. “This isn't the time to cry. Let’s go.” She said, quickly as she detached herself from him. Ethan watched her go in and out of the office and carried those boys and girls out. Their brains had been blown out and it all happened before Erin. It was no wonder everything was too overwhelming for her. Ethan stepped
Ethan’s eyes were fixated on the road as he drove Erin to her place as she had requested. It had been a few minutes since they broke the kiss and he could say that was the best kiss he had in a long while. It was way more different and connecting than what he ever had with Becca. In the next second, the system’s voice resounded in his head. [You made a female show multiple emotions. Your new skill points are:Women picking skills: 4Charm: 4Looks: 3Fighting skills: 2Overall skills: 13Account balance: $1000000]Seeing that, Ethan let out a smile because he also felt so proud that Erin was so free with him. “Take a turn,” Erin instructed as they got out of Gas Arc and drove onto the highway. “I live at Skyrise Avenue, you know where that is, right?” She asked and Ethan looked at her with surprised eyes. “What? There? You are that rich?” He asked but then shut his mouth immediately while throwing Erin an apologetic look. “Haha, don't be too surprised. My family lives in Skyrise
Ethan stood still and he frowned in displeasure seeing who was at the door. “What are you doing here?” He asked, folding his arms. “I am here to see you. Don't you want to see me anymore?” Becca asked, walking toward Ethan with a sultry look in her eyes. She tried to touch him but then he stepped as if she was garbage.“I see that you have dumped Ray. Why?” Ethan asked, stepping to the side and then going toward the door. He had a long day and he wasn't about to chat away into the midnight with Becca. “You know I only went to Ray because I wanted to give us both a better life. I had to act that way in the hotel so Ray wouldn't be suspicious. I have loved you from the beginning. Why would I date you if I didn't?” She said in one breath. Ethan wasn't moved by her words and he only inserted his key and opened the door. “Are you a mosquito?” He asked before opening the door. “What?” “You are buzzing like one.” He replied and then opened the door, went in, and shut it in her face.
“You see, Ethan…” Ray walked forward and tapped the tip of his gun on Ethan’s head. “I just rendered you immobile and if you don't get immediate treatment, you are going to be crippled, for life.” “You bastard!” Ethan let out through gritted teeth, trying to endure the pain in his legs. His hands fisted tightly and he just wanted to tear Ray apart. “Nah… a crippled man doesn't insult. No matter the amount of money you claim to have, you will end up in the gutter where you belong.” Ray mocked and then took a step back. A wicked smile crept onto his face and he motioned for the men to leave. They got into their cars and drove off, leaving Ethan and Becca who was almost dead. Ethan was losing too much blood and his eyes were starting to close up. He thought he was going to die from losing too much blood but how could he die at this point? “Someone call 911!” A voice resounded in the air as several people rallied around Ethan and Becca and most people were taking pictures.“Call the
The doctor stood there dumbfounded as she looked at Erin. “His girlfriend?” She asked with raised brows. “Yes, are you surprised?” Erin replied and somehow the doctor felt hurt that Ethan had someone else he liked. What was she thinking anyway? That a patient she met in one day would stay faithful to her?She realized she was getting ahead of herself by thinking about Ethan ever since that day. But on the other hand, she didn't want to back down before her fellow woman. “Well, Ethan has to tell me that himself and not you. I do not know you, so get out of the way and let me examine him.” The doctor said and even though Erin was infuriated by her words, she had to step aside. Her eyes followed every little thing the doctor did and a few minutes later, the doctor was done. “Is anything wrong with him?” Erin asked. “No. We just have to wait for him to wake up. Also, a nurse will come to change his bandages. Take care of him.” The doctor informed and then turned around to leave whil
[The Super Healing technique is available. The cost is one million dollars.] Ethan heard those words and he knew he had just one million dollars in his account. At this point, he didn't mind spending all he had to get what he wanted. “I will get the Super Healing technique.” He replied. There was a booting sound in his head and the next second, his phone dinged and it was a debit alert from the bank. He was left with just a few cents but then he didn't worry too much because he trusted in the system and knew he would always earn his money. [20%40%60%80%100% Super Healing Technique installed! Congratulations, Ethan Blackwood, you have gotten super healing and you can now heal yourself within minutes. All you have to do is tap on the option you want on the screen.] The system said as a screen was displayed before his eyes. Ever since he got the system, he never thought he could actually operate it and do what he wanted on the screen. “You mean I can tap on the screen?” Ethan
Ethan walked out of his ward and he saw a nurse walking down the hallway as well. However, he didn't panic and continued to walk. His bandages were covered, so the nurse didn't suspect anything unusual. He walked to the end of the hallway and took the elevator down to the last floor. The lobby of the hospital was a bit rowdy and it was nighttime with many patients taking a walk and some were waiting for the patients they accompanied. Ethan walked out of the hospital like nothing was wrong and he stopped a cab before the hospital. His eyes twinkled as he got in. “Airport, please.” He said, passing the cab man cash. The car moved and in twenty minutes, they were there. Before he got out, he saw that the time was midnight exactly. To him, the time of death of Ray Bastien was approaching. Ethan strode into the airport leisurely and got to the waiting area. The first-class waiting area was a bit closed and he couldn't go there and it had only a thin glass separating both places. But th
Before they knew it, the airport police siren had started to ring out and several footsteps echoed going toward the restroom. “Everyone freeze!” The police shouted as soon as they saw blood spilled all over the floor. The lady still had the knife lodged in Ray’s body and immediately they pointed the gun at her as well as Ethan. “You both are under arrest for the murder of–” “Leave him out of this, officers.” The lady spoke up with a sneer, her eyes blazing dangerously. She didn't look fazed at all. “I killed him as you can see.” She declared proudly. “And if you want to know why. It's because this bastard has molested and blackmailed me for years and he threatened me to come to the airport so he could flee with me.” “I want to put an end to my relationship with this bastard. So, I killed him.” Her words caused the whole place to turn silent.Ethan looked at her with pity in his eyes. He thought she was just a random woman that Ray wanted to molest but it turned out they had a h
