Ethan grinned inwardly though his outward appearance was the epitome of tranquility.Jason had fallen beautifully for his trap and now it was only a matter of time before he realized the unfortunate situation he was in.However, before he could offer a response to Jason's reaction to his bait, Jason intoned. “But we have to make it a little more interesting else I don't plan on taking part.”“Oh?” Ethan raised a brow. “What do you have in mind?”“The loser of the bid would have to publicly apologize to the winner by kowtowing seven times. Understood?”Ethan gawked, causing Jason to smirk. “What?... Cat caught your tongue perhaps?”'Hmmph, you dare to try and embarrass me?... Be prepared to pay the price!’ Jason thought, even expecting Ethan to back out so he could mock him.However, just then, he couldn't help but notice that Ethan was trembling but it wasn't out of fear, no, it was one born out of joy.'This imbecile just keeps making things better!’ Ethan celebrated inwardly as he w

It was a lavish room worthy of the title VIP as it was outfitted with the best money could buy while the table had quite a few delicacies, both local and foreign, placed on it with five maids waiting to offer their services should they be called upon.Ethan sat in the room across from Oswald who had intentions of suddenly bringing him to such a place.Of course, Ethan wasn't flustered in the slightest and instead, looked forward to what was to be his first step into the business world.“So, may I ask why you called me to such a place, Mr. Oswald?” Ethan calmly inquired as he indulged in a samosa.Oswald chuckled. “Nothing at all, Mr. Ghost. You see, when I see successful young men like yourself, I feel it necessary to get acquainted.”“Oh?”“Of course!... I believe the future is with me like you so to not be left behind, it's only right that I do so.”“I guess you are correct.”“So tell me, are you new in the city?” Oswald inquired.Though his question seemed innocent at first glance,

[Carrying out the exchange now][Exchange completed][Current account balance: 138,000,000]Ethan nearly choked though he expected the amount.Before he was arrested and jailed for Mr. Williams's crimes, he had been worth a little over 45 million, yet in one day, he had surpassed his entire life's worth with the aid of the system.It almost felt like he'd been living life in hard mode until today.Chuckling in amusement, he shifted his attention to another matter.[Level1= (100/100)[Would the host like to proceed with leveling up?]“Yes.” [Leveling up will take place now. Please wait]Ethan immediately felt a strange energy course through his veins causing him to feel a jolt of pain after which it stopped.His breathing was erratic, and he immediately felt like he had undergone a qualitative change.“So this is what it means to level up?... I wonder just how powerful I'd be once I reach level 10… or perhaps level 100.” He began to get an inkling as to why the system was catered to

Fred's mind was already filled with the thoughts of the extra money that would be made from the order causing him to up the ante on the type of car he wished to buy.Unfortunately, the waitress's next words served to douse the excitement brewing in his heart. “It's only one man sir.”Fred paused. “Sorry, I don't think I heard you correctly. You say only one man ordered all this?”“Yes sir.”“Damn it, just what kind of troublemaker dared to enter into my establishment so early in the morning!” “That's why I decided to bring it to you.”“Is the man still there now?”“I think so.”“That's good, let me see the fucker that dared to come in here looking for who to scam.”Rising to his feet, he ordered the waitress. “Lead the way!”The waitress, whose name was Joan, nodded as she proceeded to lead Fred to Ethan's table, the latter was currently indulging in a glass of water while waiting for his order.“So you are the troublemaker trying to play games, huh?” Fred remarked disdainfully as he

Being surrounded by influential people with the men trying to befriend him and the women fawning over him, reminded Ethan of his days as a top gamer.At that time he was a hot cake with several companies and celebrities trying to get into the same boat with him.Unfortunately, after he took the blame for Mr. Williams' crimes, they all ran away without even bothering to check if the allegations were true.In a way, he couldn't blame them, he would have done the same considering the circumstances.Funny how it was only after he'd experienced the lowest point of life that he understood that wealth and power weren't the only important parts of life.True family and friends were important as well as they helped one persevere through the hardest of times.It was unfortunate that he never considered those who truly cared for him.Taking a deep breath, he thought it would be best to reach out to those he'd abandoned all because he thought they were no longer on the same level.Apart from his

Ethan approached Anna, noting her shocked expression as a smile emerged at the corners of his lips.“Missed me?” He inquired once he'd gotten within arm's length.“... Ethan is that you?” She inquired back in a hoarse tone.“Of course, who else could look so dashing?”Anna managed a melancholic smile as she muttered. “There's no way I won't recognize that arrogance. But how come, I thought you were in for life?”“I was let out early on good behavior. Thought I'd surprise you.”“But all this… what's going on Ethan?” “I'll explain everything later but for now, how about you explain what's happening here?”“That…”“Hey!... Enough of this bullshit.” Mr. Kent bellowed in annoyance.He glared hatefully at the pretty boy who had come to ruin his victory with Ethan looking back.“Who are you?” Mr. Kent asked with Ethan asking back.“I should be asking you, who are you?”Instead of responding, Mr. Kent burst into mocking laughter. “You fool!... You don't even know who I am.”“Am I supposed to

Seeing her so flustered, Ethan teased. “What?... Taken aback by my incredible handsomeness?”“... Ethan, what's going on?” Anna inquired, ignoring his lame joke in the process.Coughing awkwardly, Ethan remarked. “I'll answer all your questions later, but for now, don't you think you have to take care of something?”As he spoke, he gestured behind causing Anna to glance back only to find her tenants staring at her, waiting for her to address them.Confused at first, she recalled the papers in her hands which she raised triumphantly before announcing. “We did it!”The helpless tenants erupted in joy at the confirmation that their homes wouldn't be destroyed.Seeing them so happy brought a sense of happiness to Ethan and Anna with the duo smiling warmly.Just as Anna attempted to say more, however, her heart suddenly palpitated and she staggered, her eyes swimming.“Anna, are you alright?” Ethan asked worriedly as he moved to support her upon noticing her condition.Anna tried to speak
