On the way to the police station, Ethan’s car was right behind the police car and then suddenly, the police car swerved to the side so fast, that Ray who was driving had to step on the brakes so quick. He was caught off guard.“Shit!” Ray cursed as the car dragged on the road but at the same time, a truck was coming toward them, speeding so fast.Ethan saw this and without thinking twice, he flew to the driver’s side and alongside Ray, they turned the wheel so hard, the car swerved to the side. But it was a bit late as the truck banged on the side of the car, sending them flying.Ethan’s car somersaulted three times before landing on the tarred road with a loud bang. Everything happened so fast, in the blink of an eye. The car was silent with Ethan and Ray sprawled lifelessly in the car.Blood dripped from their head and Ray had a bloody gash on the side of his face. His breathing was shallow as he hung on to the last thread of his life.On the other hand, Ethan's face was covered in
[Blood Healing Technique activated! The effect will be seen in one minute.]The purchase was made and swiftly, Ethan bit down on his finger so hard, he cut his flesh. Looking into Ray’s opened eyes which were filled with horror and pain, Ethan endured the pain of biting down on his own flesh.“Ray! Hang on, please.” He opened Ray’s mouth and dropped a few drops of blood straight into his mouth. He continued to drop more blood, hoping that the technique would kickstart soon.However, one minute passed and Ethan felt Ray’s body to realize that it was unusually cold.“Wake up.” He shook Ray’s body with a bewildered look on his face. He had just used the technique, why was it not working? “Ray!” Ethan yelled a bad premonition at the back of his mind. Never! He never wanted to think that Ray was actually dead.He bit on another finger again, his eyes red from being so anxious that the worst was going to happen. Cutting his flesh again was as easy as pie and didn’t seem like a big deal to E
At this time, Ray’s body had already been taken away alongside the dead police officer, however, Ethan didn’t dare to follow after Ray. He put a call across to Mason to get guards across to the hospital where Ray would be taken and then asked Mason to meet him at the accident scene.He would not sleep, until he conquered Killeen.Thirty minutes later, the paramedics and police officer were still persuading Ethan to get some treatment and Mason arrived.“Take me to the mansion,” Ethan ordered as he got into the car. The policemen could do nothing but let Ethan go while they go back to make a report on the accident, however, they sure would request Ethan to come in for questioning later.In the car, Mason had a solemn look on his face, he was sad about Ray’s death and Ethan noticed this.“I know you are sad about Ray…” Ethan began. “But I assure you that his killer will not go scot-free.” He vowed once again.Mason only took one look at Ethan and then nodded, “I trust you, boss.” He had
“What happened?” Erin asked, her legs going weak as she found a seat at the table. She had seen Ray just that morning and even if they were not so close, they worked together sometimes and he was a good teammate. Apart from that, they lived in the same mansion.“Killeen caused the crash,” Ethan said and then he went on to explain the issue about the police officers and then brought out his phone to show her footage of when he was being escorted out of the hotel with Ray.“Do you recognize him? They are from the Gas Arc division, where you used to serve.”Erin took a good look at the footage and with one glance, she recognized the second police officer, who wasn’t found, “I know him.”“Good. Do you have any information on him?” Ethan was hopeful.“No, I don’t.” Erin shook her head. “All I know is that he is used to work in Jonathan’s team…”“Wait…” A look of realization came upon Erin’s face and she spoke up, “If he used to work with Jonathan, that means Jonathan must know about him, r
“Should I go with you?” Erin asked as Mason and Ethan got ready to go to Aaron’s hideout.“That’s not necessary.” Ethan shook his head, he didn’t want any distractions and if something dangerous should happen, Mason and he would be able to save themselves quickly. Soon, Ethan walked out of the mansion with Mason trailing behind.However, he looked up at Eva’s bedroom window to see her staring down at him and once she noticed he had seen her, she walked away. However, Ethan didn’t want a repeat of what happened the other night at Killeen’s villa. He would have killed Killeen that night if Eva had not intervened.“Keep an eye on Eva. Don’t let her step an inch out of the mansion.” Ethan instructed and Erin understood perfectly. She watched them leave and went back into the mansion only to see Eva standing in the middle of the large living room.Eva had an angry look on her face and she glared at Erin, “I’m sure he told you to keep an eye on me.”“Yeah, why?” Erin shrugged, not even try
Mason and Ethan drove to the suburbs, away from the main center of the city. It was nighttime already and they stopped before a small bungalow which had its doors wide open. They got out of the car and stood before the bungalow. The gate was wide open and the fences surrounding the house looked like they were about to fall over. “Are you sure he is still here?” Ethan asked, seeing how scattered and untidy the house was. “Yes, he is. I have men keeping an eye on him.” Mason replied. Ethan looked around to see that there were few houses there and bushes were scattered around.It was easy to spy on a person in such a place. “Let’s go in,” Ethan ordered, however, as soon as they approached the front door, the police came walking out. “What… what are you doing here?” Aaron gasped in shock, very surprised to see them there. “What do you think?” Ethan smirked wickedly and he noticed Aaron was dressed in all black. He had a cap to cover his face and he clutched a big travel bag. “I s
“Hmmm…” Aaron’s face was bloodshot, and his body chest dripped with blood but he still couldn't struggle out of the men’s grip. Ethan watched him groaning in pain but he still wasn't satisfied. Ray had died so brutally and it was because of this corrupt police officer. “Just one stab and you are crying already?” Ethan asked, chuckling. “We are not even started yet.” He slammed his hand on the wall and Aaron flinched fearfully. “I will make you suffer the same fate Ray suffered. You will look for death and you will not see it until I am finally done with your sorry ass.” Those words flew off Ethan’s lips carrying weight. Aaron’s eyes widened, realizing Ethan was no joke, “Please… please, don't kill me.” He shook his head. “I will do anything.” “Too late.” Ethan refused and without thinking twice, he stabbed Aaron again, straight in his shoulder. He missed his neck narrowly. The officer was a mess, his body was starting to fail him but he was far from death. Ethan signaled the men
Thirty minutes later, Mason stopped the car a few distances away from the small house. It wasn't fenced or gated. It just stood alone, away from a few houses around. There was a dim light right in front of the house and they could see two men with guns in hand. “It's guarded, boss.” Mason noticed. Ethan nodded and then reasoned, “We can't shoot them else we would alert Killeen.” He wanted to creep in on the Killeen before the bastard even realized it. “You go first.” Ethan pointed to Aaron was who placed in the front seat. “Make sure you distract them. And if you do anything funny, I don't mind discarding my plans just to kill you.” Ethan warned and Aaron had his head bowed.“Do you understand?” Mason snapped at him and Aaron flinched. “Yes… yes… I do.” He nodded frantically. Soon, he got out of the car, wiped the blood on his face and body, and changed his clothes so the gunmen wouldn't suspect him. However, as he stepped out of the car, he looked at Ethan’s car sideways with
