Ethan was left confused as he watched the woman grab hold of his shirt, unwilling to let go.“What is the meaning of this?”“You stole from this store and now you are trying to act innocent?... Disgusting, people like you are why poor people have a bad name.”“Poor?... Lady, I think you have me mistaken with someone else.”“No, I don't. Everyone, I saw him sneaking around and the phones that were missing were in the places he passed. Doesn't that mean he is the prime suspect?”Ethan frowned as he immediately detected a conspiracy in the works against him.Just then, a white-haired man with a casual demeanor emerged from his office. “What's with all the commotion?”“Boss, some phones have been stolen and we think we may have found the culprit.”“What?... A thief in my store?... Preposterous, who is the ballsy fellow?”One of the staff members present pointed to Ethan with the owner of the store marching over.“Is this true?... Are you trying to rob me?”“That's a lie, sir.”“It's not,

By the time the thief, whose name was Alan, was done talking, Amara's fate was already sealed.The guards immediately moved to apprehend her as she tried to escape causing her to glare at Ethan who smiled back in response.“I hope you make better life choices,” Ethan remarked as he let go of Alan to allow the security guards to pick him up as well.Satisfied that he'd cleared his name completely, Ethan turned to face Mr. Sanders only to hear a round of applause directed at him.Everyone had watched his heroics and was impressed by them.It would have been a time to gloat a bit but knowing that he was on a timer, he managed a smile before shifting his attention back to Mr. Sanders.“You can be quite persuasive, Mr. Ghost.”“I appreciate the kind words but I just want to get a phone and be on my way.”“That's fine, however, allow me to treat you to a special gift as a means to thank you for your actions today.”“Fine then.”“Please come with me.” Mr. Sanders immediately led Ethan to a

Ethan snuck into the hospital using the secret entrance he'd learned about via the dark web.Though quite illegal, he couldn't deny its usefulness in his current situation as he got into one of the closets in the hospital building.He immediately took off his clothes and put on a medical overall unique to male nurses before stepping out of the closet to find himself in a neat hallway with a few medical personnel moving about while tending to matters.Ethan avoided eye contact and played it cool as he weaved his way through the workers, acting like he was one of them when he was anything but.Soon, he arrived at his destination, Room 12, which was where Mr. Lincoln Park was being kept.Taking a deep breath, he looked around to see if anyone was watching before quickly rushing into the ward.Once inside, he got a system notification.[Congratulations to Host for passing the hidden quest with flying colors]“Hidden quest?” Ethan thought aloud as his expression contorted in confusion.[Hi

Ethan wasn't quite sure who the culprit of Mr. Park's current condition was, but he could quickly tell with the help of [Detective] that the old man had been suffering some level of torment within the last few months.The numerous injection wounds in his arm were a dead giveaway followed by the marks on his neck and legs.If he was to guess, he had a feeling Mr. Park's condition wasn't a one-time thing but was a continuously induced state that was slowly killing him.Based on looks, only a few people had access to the old man's ward, the most prominent being Dr. Khan. Immediately, a clear picture of the current situation slowly dawned on him.Meanwhile, Khan spat coldly. “You'd best know your place, bastard!... Do you even have any idea what is bothering Mr. Park?”“Not really but I have a feeling it's been overly exaggerated by quite a few negative factors,” Ethan replied.Khan snorted. “What the hell are you talking about?” “That Mr. Park has been experiencing nothing short of tor

“Trina dear, is that you?” Mr. Park inquired in a hoarse tone.Trina, with tears in her eyes, joyfully replied. “Yes, Grandpa, I'm here.”She immediately rushed over to help him as he tried to sit up while Ethan took a few steps back while keeping an eye on Khan who was shocked by the current turn of events.“Are you alright, grandpa?... Are you feeling okay?”“I am. These last few months have been quite torturous. To think I'd be able to survive. Did you do something child?”Trina shook her head. “The medicine god didn't abandon grandfather. He sent a messenger.”“Is that so?” Mr. Park finally glanced at Ethan. “You must be the messenger. I smell the aura of our patron from you.”“He sent me to preserve your life, saying that it wasn't your time to go.”“I am glad to hear that.”“He also told me to inform you that your enemies are closer than you think and most importantly, your sickness was merely an intense case of poisoning carried out continuously.”“What?”“What nonsense are you

A brilliant smile suffused Ethan's lips as he remarked. “Glad I didn't disappoint.”Meanwhile, Mickey was staring in disbelief as everything he'd learned in his years as a medical doctor was overturned.How was this even possible?For a patient on the brink of death to come back so easily?... Was that even possible?'Or is it true that the supernatural is real?... Did I end up offending a master without even knowing it?’ Mickey no longer saw Ethan as a joke as his eyes shone with admiration.Ethan moved to help Anna sit up as he asked. “How are you feeling?”“Like a newborn baby. What did you do, Ethan?”“I'll explain everything in due time. For now, just know that everything is alright.”Anna remained curious but chose to trust Ethan and so nodded in response.Just then, they both heard a thud causing their attention to be drawn to the door where Mickey was currently kowtowing.“I apologize for my earlier demeanor, I had no idea that you were no simple man.”Ethan chuckled. “I though

There were quite a few people who had held a grudge against Ethan during his reign at the top.Selena was one of them.She'd been his girlfriend for a while but she cheated and was caught with Ethan kicking her out of his life permanently.Since then, she'd held a deep-seated hatred toward him which was why when he was arrested and stripped of his honors, she was one of those who celebrated his downfall.To think that he would run into one of his crazy exes in such a place, Ethan couldn't help but feel amused at the opportunity that had fallen onto his lap.“I don't care if you were let out of prison or not but I'm well aware that you are no longer the number one gamer of the past. Right now, you are an ex-convict with nothing to his name. What could a bum like you be doing in an upscale place like Threads?”“I doubt our movement is any of your business.” Anna spat back earning a snort from Selena.“Oh please, can it? Brokies like yourself are better suited for thrift stores where thi

“I'll tell you straightforward, Mr. Jones, I'd like you to get out of my store,” Lucas remarked without mincing words, his words laced with contempt.Ethan raised a brow. “I've never seen a business owner that didn't want money.”“And what money could someone like you possibly have?” Selena inquired in derision.“What's it to you?”“I just don't want Innocents to end up getting scammed by you.”“Quite generous,” Ethan remarked. “But perhaps you should focus on completing your shopping.”“Oh?... Do you think I'm like you, Ethan dear?... Alright, wait a moment, let me show you the difference between us.” Saying that, Selena placed what she wished to buy on the counter with the cashier quickly getting the bill for her.“Your bill is $450,000, ma'am.” Taken aback at first, Selena immediately remarked. “Can't you see that I know your boss?... Lucas, tell them to give me a discount.” Lucas glanced at her. “You know I can't do that. I don't own Threads, I can't give out discounts unless I
