Leilani let out a resigned sigh. “Yeah, you are right. If only she hadn't decided to go down that path.”Mark bit down on his lower lip but ultimately gave no response.“I guess we should get going then.”“Yeah, let's go.” Mark nodded.With that, Leilani nodded before rising to her feet and making her way outside.Meanwhile, Mark watched her back, his gaze flashing with malicious intent.***Outside, the hall was filled with numerous bachelors who had taken residence in the hotel.There were even those who had been called over by their friends, all of whom were gathered to watch the beautiful Leilani.Also known as the Untouched Rose, Leilani was the stuff of their wet dreams, with incredible beauty and an outstanding appearance.She was like a fairy unsullied by nature and for that reason, she was all the more alluring.Several wished to make her their mistress while others were more than okay with bedding her just once so they could have a taste of her.They didn't even bother to hi

Falcon hadn't expected that there would still be someone seeking to throw his life away after he had expressed his interest in Leilani.He looked around, seeking to find out who was so bold, and soon, noticed him.The man seemed unassuming at first but on closer inspection, Falcon realized that he may not be a simple figure at all.Deciding to practice a bit of dialogue, he called one of his subordinates over and sent them to the unassuming man.Meanwhile, Ethan had just placed his bids resulting in a great deal of gazes flocking towards him.Naturally, he remained calm, not even bothering to place any of them in his gaze.“What are you doing?” Anna questioned at this juncture, slightly tensed by the number of people staring at them.Ethan chuckled. “Didn't you say the young lady was pitiful?”“Well, yes…”“So how about saving her?”“But we risk offending a great deal of people.”Ethan snorted. “How does that concern me?... I do what I want when I want. If anyone doesn't like it, they

Ethan laughed out loud, causing Falcon's expression to grow even more sour as he had the desire to cut him into tiny pieces.Unfortunately, he couldn't do so, at least not in the hotel but Falcon swore in his heart that he would teach Ethan a lesson should he dare to step outside after the auction.If he didn't teach the bastard a lesson, then his name wasn't Don Falcon!“Why the fuck are you laughing!?” Falcon questioned after he was unable to hold back any longer. Ethan smirked. “Just amused at how myopic your thinking is. I mean, just because you can't fathom more money than 121 million doesn't mean every other person can't. See what I mean about being a frog in a well?”“Shut the fuck up!” Falcon scolded with Ethan chuckling.“You were the one that asked me why I was laughing.”Falcon gritted his teeth as he realized that a word match with Ethan would end in his defeat, so he had no choice but to back down but that didn't mean he was going to let Leilani escape his grasp so easil

In a way, Ethan understood how Leilani felt being betrayed by the person she trusted the most.Hadn't he been betrayed by the Williams family after giving up everything for them?... They had treated him like scum and even went ahead to kick him out all because he had no value to them.It had made him wonder back then if there were trustworthy people left in the world and though it took some time, he realized that there were trustworthy people.So now it was his chance to make Leilani see that as well.Dropping to his knees, he reached out to grab her shoulders only for Leilani to instinctively pull back, her breathing quickly turning heavy though she didn't meet his gaze.Aware of the reason behind her reaction, Ethan wasn't offended and felt even more pity for her as he remarked. “Look, I promise, I'm not going to hurt you.”Leilani remained silent, unwilling to believe that his words were true and so, Ethan was forced to utilize his skills to better improve his chances of getting th

After Anna had retired to sleep, Ethan got a call from Poltergeist.“How did it go?” She inquired in an excited tone.Ethan shrugged. “So so.” “That's good to know. How much did you dispense?” “Doesn't matter.”“Really?... I planned on paying you back.” Poltergeist remarked in a teasing tone.Ethan replied. “If you want to pay me back, how about you tell me the relationship between you and Leilani?... I thought about it a lot and realized that you guys look alike a great deal.”“Hmmph, now I'm regretting showing you my true appearance.”“Is she your sibling?”“My twin sister,” Poltergeist replied. “We were kept in the same orphanage.” “So why exactly is one sister stinkingly rich while the other has to resort to such things to make money?”Poltergeist let out a sigh as she replied. “It's complicated.”“I'm listening,” Ethan remarked.Letting out yet another sigh, Poltergeist intoned. “Leilani and I were both abandoned in the orphanage at a young age by our mother. It wouldn't be mu

Ethan's run to the hotel garage was punctuated by heavy gunfire with the police officers in pursuit not even bothering to show restraint with the appearance of civilians.They rushed after Ethan with killing intent gushing out, causing him to wonder just what could have caused them to go crazy.Ethan could easily take them even with the artifacts that some of them held but he had to think about Rebecca's safety as well, so he utilized [Hyper Motility] not in an offensive form but instead support, as he finally arrived at the garage.Unfortunately, it seemed the person who had planned the assault expected him to come here as a group of armed men were already waiting to block anyone wishing to pass.“Halt!” The man leading the group exclaimed as he brandished his weapon, prepared to fire should Ethan go against him.Ethan paused and after taking a moment to scrutinize the group, inquired. “Aren't you guys law enforcement?”“Of course!”“Then why are you after me?”“Because you are a ter

“Damn it, how useless can these police bastards be?... I forked over more than 30% of my worth and yet they still haven't caught that bastard. What the fuck am I supposed to say?” Don Falcon cursed loudly as he glared at the messenger who had delivered him reports of how the attack had turned out.He'd expected to see Ethan before him, pleading for his life like the worm he is, but instead, he somehow managed to break out of a surprise encirclement by the police and escaped with no injuries.Didn't this mean that the police were incompetent?... How else were they unable to deal with one man?“Don, please be patient, there's no way that man can leave Rhodes Island. It's only a matter of time before he's caught and brought to you.”“Do you think the current state of things came to be maintained?...

“You dared to show your face despite sensing my presence, it seems you have a death wish,” Hawk remarked coldly as he glared at Ethan.Unmoved by the threat, Ethan intoned. “Not really.”“Well, now that I've found you, you can forget about leaving here alive. I heard you call Don Falcon a frog in a well. Well then, watch how this frog teaches you a lesson in humility. I can assure you that once I'm done with you, you won't even be able to take two steps without crying.”“Has anyone told you that you talk too much?” Ethan inquired causing Hawk's face to sour.“What?”“Stop talking and make a move already. I'm getting bored just standing here.”“How dare you!... Do you have a death wish?”“Boss, let's shoot this bastard down. Does he think we don't dare to kill him?”“Yeah boss, let's teach him a lesson!”As Hawk's men clamored to have a go at Ethan, Ethan merely yawned while Hawk bellowed.“Shut up!” With that, his subordinates went silent and even some trembled, growing pale at the p
