The drive to the orphanage stayed at was a relatively quiet one.With Don Falcon dead and the police force under control, Rhodes Island had begun to regain some semblance of civilization with civilians once again allowed to move as they wished.However, just as they arrived at the orphanage, they were shocked by the scene they saw.Several kids were left stranded on the street, most of which were crying, accompanied by two youthful ladies who had bitter expressions on their faces.Why these kids were crying was easy to tell as the place they called home was about to be demolished with no chance of it ever being rebuilt.“No, please sir, just give me some more time, I promise I'll gather the money.” The matron of the orphanage, Lita, was kowtowing before an arrogant-looking young man wearing a black suit and accompanied by four guards.The arrogant man was Johnson Smith, son of Lincoln Smith, who was said to be a businessman who dabbled in real estate.Due to his connections with Don F

“Men, teach these bastards a lesson!” Johnson ordered with his subordinates swiftly responding to his call.Seeing as Leilani was fearlessly standing her ground, Ethan's evaluation of her went up a notch but that didn't mean he'd allow fall into harm.As long as he was on Rhodes Island, those who dared to touch Leilani and those close to her were simply seeking death!He moved with deadly intent, swiftly dispatching Johnson's subordinates with ease.By the time Ethan was done with the last one, Johnson was left stunned and unable to speak.Ethan then turned his attention to him.Johnson trembled as he took a step back. “You better not come close.”“Oh?... Why not?” Ethan inquired in a mocking tone.“Do you know who I am?... I am…”Before he could finish his statement, a terrifying slap sent him flying back, knocking him out cold the moment he dropped to the ground.Looking closely, one could tell the Smith heir had lost quite a few teeth and his cheek was swollen.Ethan snorted. “I ha

Lincoln watched the black card fall to the ground before quickly shifting his attention back to Ethan who calmly remarked.“That card is worth 2.5 million. You can cash it out at any bank of your choice. With this, you no longer have any connections with Miss Lita and her orphanage. Dare to go against our agreement and you will be hearing from me.”With that, he turned and left, allowing Lincoln to digest the ominous words he left behind.It was only after several minutes that he managed to calm his nerves after which he lamented. “It seems this foolish son of mine has gone ahead to touch a hornet's nest.”He could only be thankful that he was let off without damage.In the future, he'd have to be careful to teach Johnson that there were people he absolutely couldn't offend.Meanwhile, Ethan didn't return to the orphanage and instead made his way to Commissioner Rowan’s house for a quick chat.Naturally, he brought up the orphanage and asked the Commissioner to look after them which R

“I'm sure we are all aware of the great and mighty, Lumina Empire, which is regarded as one of the top powers in world politics. This envelope holds information that could potentially cause the nation to fracture. Even if it doesn't fall, its power to make global decisions would be affected. So ladies and gentlemen, for such a precious item, we shall start the bid at 100 million dollars. I believe this is not too small, correct?” Poltergeist remarked with a mischievous grin.None gave a response and just like that, the auction began.The first to bid was a man wearing a skull mask.

Lady Spice's expression looked bitter as she glared daggers at Ethan.If she could, she would flay him alive for daring to humiliate her like this.When was the last time someone had dared to be so presumptuous in her presence?[100 billion]She placed yet another bid only for Ethan to counter it.[200 billion]“Are you really planning on making Northland an enemy?” Lady Spice questioned aggressively.As it was, she had been given a budget of 300 billion.She had planned to purchase information on Lumina Empire and also prevent any information on Northland from getting out.Who would have thought that Ethan would cause her to go above her budget on just one item?How would she be able to meet the Empress to let her know that she had lost such precious information?Clicking her tongue, she knew that if she went too far, then it might be possible that this nameless bastard would just purchase any information on Northland that was available and that was something she couldn't do.“I'll

“Going once, going twice… sold!” Poltergeist exclaimed.Reginald watched in horror as the envelope floated towards Ethan.Despite his best efforts, he understood that facing Ethan head-on was a flawed process from the start.He clicked his tongue in frustration just as Ethan turned to look in his direction.Even as he was completely covered in a dark cloak, Reginald felt mockery in the gaze directed towards him.To think that he would end up losing so badly, he cursed himself for leaving Ethan alive.If he had known such a day would come, he would have contacted people in the penitentiary to end Ethan's life.Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret and all he could do now was damage control.Having gotten what he already wanted, Ethan had no reason to stay but he was curious to know what else Poltergeist had to sell.The subsequent items, though intriguing, weren't things that directly affected him so he didn't bother to bid for them.Soon enough, the auction ended and Polterg

Ethan didn't think that renewing the license was a problem though so they didn't discuss much on that. So, he ended the call soon after and reached out to Francisca to organize a meeting for all the managers from all the companies he'd purchased to attend.With Gamer Boy complete, he felt it was time to begin the first steps toward a merger.Of course, the question remained on what exactly would be the face of the company.With so many sectors, it was bound to be a tough decision.Scheduling a meeting for tomorrow, Ethan ended the call and intended to reach out to the Brewsters next when an explosion in front caught his attention.The girls were immediately gripped by terror as voices were heard across the intercom shared by Aaron and his men.“We are under attack!... The attackers are unknown, secure the main cargo and ensure they reach their destination!”Before a response could be given, yet another explosion occurred, this time behind the car.Whoever orchestrated the attack was

Crossbones expression turned ghastly as he stared at Ethan.He had planned to use the chaos caused by the attack to take Anna and the other girls as hostages, forcing Ethan to enter into a weakened state so he could finish him off easily.Judging from what Reginald had told him, Ethan was supposedly an Apostle who was on very good terms with his patron deity, which meant he would be difficult to handle in a one-on-one fight.But this didn't mean Crossbones was going to back away now that the target was before him.Grinning wickedly, he remarked. “Well, well, if it isn't the great Ethan Jones. One would think after you were released from prison, you'd live a low-key life, but no, you just have to be a pain in the ass.”“I'm guessing Reginald sent you.”“Does it matter?”Ethan shook his head. “No, just wanted to be sure.”“Boss, I thought you went in a different direction.”“I had a gut feeling so I decided to tail you guys. Thankfully I did else the situation would have been much worse
