Rags to Stardom Chapter 306
After a few minutes, another set of military vehicles drove into the premises of the Wilkins family with several men alighting from the vehicles and walking into the mansion. Warren became excited when he saw the men, “Boy! You came just in time, seize this fool! The rest of you, I'll deal with your insubordination later!” Warren dished out orders like the high-ranking naval officer that he was. After several years in the Navy, Warren had risen to a rank that many other officers could only dream of! He had a battalion of naval officers at his command, so when he heard what Ethan did to his family, he returned as quickly as he could, vowing to make him pay. “Sir, what are your orders?” The commanding officer of the men who had just arrived ignored Warren like he didn't even exist, directing all their attention to Ethan. All the members of the Wilkins family glared at the officers in shock. Why are they disregarding Warren and showing Ethan so much respect? Warren shook his head in

“Admiral Jenkins told me never to step foot in the cantonment again!” Warren finally responded after several seconds of silence. Warren’s sudden response shook Madam Comfort and the other members of the Wilkins family. The once excited looks on all their faces quickly turned into one of confusion and shock. Warren Wilkins, the high-ranking naval officer who brought so much pride to the Wilkins family was now an ordinary fellow! While Madam Comfort was still lost in thought, Donnie’s phone suddenly rang out. Donnie initially ignored the call but because his phone wouldn't stop ringing, he reached for it, tapping on the screen with checking who the caller was. “Donnie Wilkins here, how may I help you?” Donnie asked casually. But suddenly his mouth dropped as he turned around gawking at Ethan. “Father, who was that?” Farrell asked, taking his father's phone to see who had just called. Farrell furrowed his brows as he recognized the number. “Father, please say something, what hap

Gabriella and Loretta walked into his office at that instant, smiling to themselves. The two ladies had suddenly become friendly to Ethan's surprise. “Hey bro, what's up?” Gabriella asked, kissing him on the cheek. She suddenly caught sight of the video by Damian Crown, “Hmm, don't tell me you play poker?” Loretta stared at Ethan, frowning, “Isn't that gambling?” Ethan chuckled, knowing how Loretta felt about gambling. “Yes, I'm thinking of accepting the challenge!” Ethan announced casually. Loretta's eyes widened instantly, “Not that I fancy gambling or anything of the sort but isn't Damian Crown the best poker player in all of Cedarwood?” Gabriella raised an eyebrow, “Really? He is that good?” “Yeah, he is. He has never lost a poker game before!” Loretta responded, still gawking at Ethan. “If he is that good then there's no need to accept the challenge, Ethan,” Gabriella spoke to her brother with a concerned look. Ethan suddenly got up from his seat, “Relax girls, it's just

Loretta on the other hand was shocked that Ethan was not only risking 30 million dollars but was also using his Maserati as collateral. She tried making several discreet gestures at Ethan to register her disagreement but Ethan simply smiled in response. Gabriella simply glared at her brother, both shocked and impressed with how daring he was. Damian Crown seemed to have noticed the look of displeasure on Loretta's face because suddenly he chuckled excitedly, “It appears the fellow here has met his own side of the deal so let the game begin!” A few minutes later, Loretta gawked at Ethan as Damian Crown initiated a transfer of 300 million dollars to Ethan and also returned the keys to the Maserati. Ethan had defeated Damian Crown! Damian Crown was still in shock as he watched Ethan leave with Gabriella and Loretta. Even those who had been murmuring and mocking Ethan could only glare at him in shock as he walked out. The great Damian Crown had been defeated by an ordinary-looking f

Others in Ethan's shoes would have been too scared to say anything, but Ethan on the other hand spoke to them with so much boldness. The third man furrowed his brows as he turned to Ethan, “Seems you are determined to get beaten. Guys how about we teach this fool a big lesson.” As if waiting for the motivation, the other two men nodded in agreement as they both clenched their fists. All three men suddenly charged at Ethan but he was too swift for them as he simply moved away causing them to crash into the door. Ethan chortled with a mocking expression written on his face when he saw them wreathing in pain, “What fool sent you boys here anyway?” *** Siren sounds blared outside a magnificent building as several men alighted from the vehicle dressed in their smart uniforms. They walked toward the entrance of the building and tapped a few times on the door. The butler suddenly opened a slightly startled expression written on his face as soon as he saw the men in uniform door, “Welc

Meanwhile, Ethan, Gabriella, Loretta, and Samantha went out that evening for a celebratory dinner. Ethan was surprised when he walked into the restaurant to find the Diamond Rhythms playing one of their sensational songs, making the mood in the exquisite restaurant perfect. Ethan turned to Loretta grinning, “You didn't have to.” Loretta chuckled, “Same way you didn't have to purchase the movie production company for my sister's sake.” Ethan smiled, “You found out about that?” “Let's just say I did some snooping into some of your secured files,” she replied, winking. Ethan shook his head, laughing. He knew sooner or later she would find out that he had been responsible for Samantha’s first movie role. “Thanks for doing that, it means a lot,” Loretta added, taking one of his hands as they joined Samantha and Gabriella at their table. *** News of Mr. Camino’s arrest was soon on the lips of everyone especially those whom he closely associated with and one of them was Damian Crown!

Ethan was still busy at the art exhibition center when his phone suddenly rang. It was an unknown number! Ethan furrowed his brows as he picked up the call, “Yes, who is this?” There was a loud chuckle at the other end of the line, “Am I speaking to Ethan Banks?” The person at the other end of the line asked disdainfully. Ethan responded with a cold tone, “Who wants to know?” “I have your girls with me, say hi to them!” The voice responded, laughing mischievously. Suddenly Loretta and Gabriella's voices could be heard in the background, screaming and calling out Ethan's name. “Do I now have your attention?” The voice at the other end of the line suddenly asked. Ethan's face darkened instantly as his grip on his phone tightened, “What do you want? If you touch even a strand of their hair, I'll end you!” There was a loud chuckle at the other end of the line, “Meet me at the address I just forwarded, don't be late!” The phone line suddenly went dead. Ethan clenched his fists as h

“Now, the way I see it, it is you who has a choice to make! You either willingly release the ladies or I put you down and allow my trigger-happy companion standing outside your apartment to go in, you choose!” Ethan narrowed his eyes at Mr. Douglas as he spoke. Mr. Douglas froze instantly, gawking at Ethan in disbelief. ‘How did he find out where I live?’ He wondered. “You idiot! You dare threaten my family?” Mr. Douglas suddenly yelled, gritting his teeth. “You have ten seconds to decide or I'll make the decision for you!” Ethan suddenly snapped as his patience wore thin. Mr. Douglas was about to speak when a loud bang was suddenly heard as he dropped to the ground. “Time up!” Ethan announced as he swiftly took out Mr. Douglas’ men, including Randall. In another few minutes, Zack arrived with several other men from the Cedarwood Police Department and picked up Mr. Douglas and all his men, hauling them into a police van. Ethan simply waved as Zack and the officers drove off. *
