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. [105 million] appeared above his head.“And we have 105. Do I hear 120?” Poltergeist said.[120 million]Before she could even speak up, another displayed 130 and then another displayed 150.Just like that, Ethan watched as the value climbed from a hundred to five hundred and it was still climbing.It seemed these people understood the value of the information on Lumina Empire.Just then, one of those who

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

Ethan stepped up and explained only to receive a scolding from Anna for trying to act like Superman.Naturally, he could only allow her to conclude her rant before she finally hugged him, thankful that he was okay.At this point, one might think she was his mom and he was an irresponsible child.In any case, once that was done, they headed back to where their car had crashed before finally finding the road only to discover that Aaron had managed to beat back the enemies, though at the cost of five officers.“I'm sorry.” Ethan apologized once he learned of this.Aaron shook his head. “It's not your fault. We were the ones who chose to accept employment under you. We were already prepared for loss.” “I understand.”“Just tell me you know the bastard that dared to ambush you.”Aaron was looking for someone to vent on and who else but the person who made the ambush happen?Ethan nodded while pointing at an unconscious Crossbones. “We won't let any of them off.”Aaron seemed satisfied as

Seeing Francisca come to her aid, Lilian immediately grew bolder as she cried out. “Young miss, save me, these men are accusing me wrongly.”“Sir Ghost, what's going on?... Surely there has to be a reason you wish to detain Lilian.” Francisca remarked.“Were you the one in charge of the convoy that was designed to bring me back home?”“That…” Francisca trailed off as she realized her mistake.Ethan had informed her not to delegate that task to anyone else but because she trusted Lilian, she hadn't considered it then but now, she realized there was something deeper going on.“Sir, is there a problem?”“The convoy was ambushed and five men died trying to deal with the enemies. You tell me if that's a problem or not.” Ethan remarked.“This… but how come?”“I have enemies, Francisca, which is why I warned you not to let anyone know of the convoy yet you went ahead to give this traitor. Do I take it that you are tired of working for me!?” Ethan questioned harshly.As much as he tried to re
