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?... Fucking do what needs to be done before important families in the city start getting restless. When that happens, do you think the police would be able to mobilize like they did today?” Don q

“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

Ethan moved in the shadow of night, stealthily checking on the situation in the city.Contrary to his expectations, the police patrols hadn't reduced and instead had gotten a substantial increase in quantity as policemen patrolled the streets at every corner, knocking on houses and searching thoroughly without pause.Ethan clicked his tongue, Don Falcon truly had the power to be able to mobilize the police in such a way which was amusing considering he was supposed to be the head of the black market and overall master of crime in the city.It seemed it was no exaggeration when they had claimed him to be the one in control of Rhodes Island.Perhaps even the Island governor couldn't be compared to him concerning connections.Regardless, this only exacerbated Ethan's desire to end the bastard's life.Since he was so keen to take Ethan's life, then naturally, Ethan wouldn't back down and would show the same intensity in taking his life.However, the police and general law enforcement curr

“Who are you?” The butler asked in a somewhat aggressive tone as he cocked the shotgun, poised to shoot the moment Ethan made the wrong move.Naturally, Ethan could evade if he wanted to but knowing that doing so would only increase the butler's apprehension towards him, he decided to take a different approach.“I am but a nameless wanderer, like a rolling stone I have no place to call my own. You may call me Ghost.” Ethan recited while feeling his toes curl.Did it have to be so cringe?The butler remained unconvinced. “How did you get past security and why are you here?” “Apologies for coming here unannounced but I am here on the orders of those beyond human understanding to help those in need.” The butler furrowed his brows. “What do you mean?”“Isn't this house in need of help?... I am here to offer up my help.”The butler was just about to speak when an arrogant-looking man arrived. “Albert, who is this?”“Ah, young master Karan, he claims to be here to help us.”Karan raised a

Because of her capabilities, Rowan named her his successor and Karan didn't like that which is why he helped Don Falcon to poison his sister]Ethan finally understood Karan better.If he was right, it meant that maybe Lakshmi wasn't dead yet.However, he had to be sure by seeing her before making any conclusive statements.Finally, he arrived in the room Lakshmi was kept in.It was very big and at the center of the room was a large bed with a very pale woman laying on it.The woman looked frail and her chest was no longer moving.Ethan stood at the door as he also searched for her using the [Search] function of the system.[Name: Lakshmi Walia][Description: Currently medically dead.
