Mr. Stone licked his lips as he stared at Grace's eye-catching physique.

Despite being almost forty, she somehow managed to remain a beauty.

“Fine then, but you'll have to come with me first.” Mr. Stone feigned reluctance though he had already begun to imagine quite a few vulgarities he planned on experiencing with the matron.

Grace was no fool so she understood that Mr. Stone was planning on making her his mistress.

But she had no choice if she wanted to save the kids from being homeless.

So, she slowly rose her feet and got Maria to drag the young boy holding her away.

“Sister Grace,” Maria remarked, tears in her eyes as she couldn't watch Grace give up her dignity for their sake.

Grace managed a melancholic smile. “Take them inside. I'll be back later.”

“But…”

“Just do as I've asked. Please.”

Maria hesitated but ultimately nodded as she turned to do as instructed.

Taking a deep breath, Grace moved to stand at arm's length from Mr. Stone who licked his lips again.

“Don't worry, I'l

    “Couldn't be better,” Grace remarked as she embraced Ethan once again.Ethan managed a warm smile as he reciprocated the gesture while using the opportunity to check out his mission progress.[Congratulations, you have completed 20% of the mission: A Good Heart][If you manage to complete the remaining 80% before the days end, your rewards will be tripled][Good luck Host!]Ethan nearly choked as he saw that the rewards could be tripled.He hasn't helped Grace just because of the mission but that didn't mean he was about to reject the opportunity handed to him.Meanwhile, behind, Louisa couldn't help but wonder what it felt like to experience such closeness with a person.Though most people thought the Goldberg family was a close one, it was the opposite.Due to the power they held, the children in the family fought and squabbled at every turn, always trying to overcome the other just to prove themselves worthy of becoming the heir to the Goldberg estate.She had not engaged in petty

    Fully aware that Louisa wouldn't share anything about the problems plaguing her, Ethan decided to focus on his tasks and so made his way to House No. 19 entrance before pressing the doorbell.He pushed it two more times before a woman opened the door and on scrutiny, the woman looked completely unfamiliar.Ethan furrowed his brows as the woman approached.“Who are you?” She inquired with a wary look as she glanced at Ethan and then at Louisa.Ethan replied. “You can call me Ethan, sorry, but is Jacob around?”“Jacob?” The woman furrowed her brows for a moment as she seemed to be thinking about something before inquiring. “Jacob Turner?”“Yeah.” Ethan immediately nodded, grateful that the woman knew who he was talking about.But then she spoke again and his expression fell.“He moved, a year ago with his pregnant wife.”Ethan pursed his lips. “Any idea why?”“Something about being in a boatload of debt after losing his job.”“He lost his job?” Ethan could hardly believe his ears.One h

    Jacob sat at the gambling table where crime heads sat, each one powerful enough to remove him from existence should he overstep his boundaries.Their men stood behind with guns, prepared to shoot him should he do what he wasn't supposed to.In such a situation, he could only pray that he would be able to walk out alive.“Do you know why you are here, Jacob?” The first of the three crime heads, Pablo, inquired.Jacob gulped nervously. “I don't know.”“Is that so?... Well, let me enlighten you.” Pablo remarked. “You are here because you managed to win 3 million dollars in our casino. That had never happened before and we want to know how you did it.”“I just did it,” Jacob replied, unsure of how he was to explain to these thugs that he had used his understanding of mathematics and code to win.“Nah, I don't think so.” Pablo intoned while shaking his head. “I think you cheated.”“I didn't cheat, I promise, there's no way I could have cheated.” Jacob quickly remarked only for one of the g

    Ethan snorted. “Wise choice.” Pablo nearly lost it but managed to remain calm though he stared daggers at Ethan.Ignoring the killer glare, Ethan turned to Jacob. “Let's go.”“But…”“Would you like to sleep here?... I said, let's go.” Ethan said.Unsure of what to make of the current situation, Jacob sent a glance at Pablo to be sure he wouldn't do anything before slowly rising to his feet.Just then, Pablo intoned. “Watch your back.” Ethan looked back and repeated the same words with a touch of flair. “Watch your back as well.”A cold draft blew in from somewhere at that moment, causing Jacob to gulp hard as he instinctively took hold of Ethan's wrist.Together, he and Ethan left Pablo's den untouched.Once they were gone, one of the two seated with Pablo inquired. “Why did you let him go, boss?... That bastard not only insulted you, he didn't even put us in his eyes at all.”“Shut up before I rip your tongue out,” Pablo remarked before adding. “Gather the men. Go after that bastar

    “Ethan, what's going on?” Louisa couldn't hold herself back any longer as she inquired, her chest heaving as she struggled to hold back the terror within.“I'll explain everything later but for now I need you to leave with Jacob,” Ethan remarked before glancing at Jacob who immediately understood what he was trying to do.“You can't do that. Those guys are going to kill you.”Ethan shook his head. “They won't.”“They will, Ethan!” Jacob exclaimed. “You aren't super man that can shrug off bullets.”“You'd be surprised.” Ethan intoned in a jocular tone earning a frown from Jacob.“Take this seriously!” “I am taking this seriously, Jacob. That's why I'm telling you to leave, now.” Ethan remarked.Jacob gritted his teeth. “No, I'm the one that caused this. I deserve to stay behind.”He tried to get out of the car but Ethan proved a bit too strong for him to move out of the way.“Lisa is waiting,” Ethan remarked. “She and your daughter. So go.”“Do you expect me to just leave you here?”“

    The Jeep came to a stop a few meters away from the Porsche and since Jacob was familiar with the makeup, he immediately grew tense.He thought it was Pablo and his goons, who came to make him pay for running away.He wondered how he was going to protect Lisa by himself though he knew he had to do so.But then the car opened and Ethan stepped down, his entire appearance something that could be said to be straight out of a horror movie as he was covered in dried blood and seemed exhausted.“Ghost!” Louisa instinctively exclaimed as she rushed to him.Jacob seemed shocked as well as he rushed over to support him.“What happened?... How are you here?... How did you get away?” Jacob asked rapid-fire questions with Ethan replying with a simple.“At least get a man some water first before bombarding him with questions.” “Ah, sorry. Come.”Once inside, Ethan explained what happened, heavily embellishing the story to avoid letting them know that he was a real-life superhuman.Still, his feat

    It took roughly an hour and thirty minutes before they arrived at the gates, only to be ushered in with respect by the guards.“Would you like me to come in?” Louisa inquired with Ethan nodding.“Alright.”Together, they got down with Jacob stepping out as well only to be hit with a wave of nostalgia.This has been his life once upon a time.It felt weird to be back in a place that had humiliated him thoroughly. Ethan walked alongside Louisa until they reached the reception.“Hello, sir, how may I help you?”“I would like to speak with Lucas Graham.” Ethan calmly remarked.The receptionist replied. “Sorry sir but do you have an appointment?”“Tell Lucas that Miss Goldberg is here to see him.” Louisa quickly said, saving Ethan the stress of explaining.The receptionist immediately grew tense as she heard the name Goldberg.“Alright, please give me a moment.”Immediately, she put a call across to relevant parties before finally dropping the telephone.“Please wait a minute, a staff memb

    Taking a deep breath, Jacob replied. “I'm here to carry out a business deal.”“Huh?” Sandy raised a brow in disbelief. “With what money exactly?... A pauper like you wouldn't even be able to afford meals if the State didn't have rules tending to people like you.”“You don't know anything about me, Sandy.” Sandy snorted. “Of course, I know. At least, I know your bank accounts are still frozen and your assets are still impounded. One of the perks of being part of management.”She wasn't hesitating to rub her good fortune in his face but Jacob managed to remain calm, his gaze impassive as he stared at her. “What?... Shocked to hear that I'm part of management?... Oh yeah, that should have been you, right?... Unfortunately, you couldn't keep your hands to yourself.”Jacob trembled but still managed to keep his cool as he intoned. “You and I both know the truth about what happened that night.”“The night you attacked and molested me?... Oh, yes, I am well aware.” Jacob gritted his teeth

But at least… let me try.” Aurora nodded. “Since you saved me… I have no reason to refuse your request. But then, how do you plan to help me regain my memories?”“I have my ways.” Ethan confidently replied.Looking down at her cup of cocoa, Aurora replied. “Fine then, I'll cooperate.”“Thank you.” Relieved that she accepted, Ethan didn't hesitate to activate [LifeGiver].Moving to sit beside Aurora, he asked for permission to touch her head which she gave after which he placed his hand on her temple and got to work.Aurora’s expression shifted as the deepest recesses of her mind were healed from the trauma she'd experienced due to the accident.However, it allowed her to figure out so many things that had been unclear to her before now.Gasping, she pulled away from Ethan's palm with the latter growing worried. “Is everything okay?

    With Ethan at the helm, he replied with conviction. “That woman is related to Rani and Leilani.”“Why do you say so?”“It's just a gut feeling.”“But didn't she die?”“Maybe she didn't. I mean, she was an Apostle who managed to escape the GK Council for a long time. What's the likelihood that she didn't do something to herself so they won't be able to find her?”“You have a point.”Pursing his lips, Ethan decided to test something out first.He called up the system tab. “Reach out to the God of Information.”[Reaching out… the God of Information has arrived]“Did your previous Apostle die?”[The God of Information is silent]“Damn it, answer the question!”[He says that he doesn't know.

If possible, would you like to regain your memories?”“... I don't know if I want to. Whenever I try to think back, only fear, regret, and apprehension await. What kind of life would be waiting for me if I did?”“That…”“I'm sorry but I need to go. Since the manager lost his job, I'd have to seek employment elsewhere.”“Aren't you curious?... To know if you forgot something really important in your past?” The woman remained quiet for a prolonged period before shaking her head. “If it's not with me now, it must not have been important.”With those words, she got to her feet and added. “I'll be taking my leave now.”Then she left, leaving Ethan feeling frustrated and Kiara curious.“Damn it!...

I'm not sure. I feel like I know that woman.”Glancing at the woman, Kiara shifted her attention back to Ethan, unsure of what to make of the situation.On getting to their table, the waitress, who looked to be in her late forties made eye contact with Ethan only to freeze as an indescribable emotion crossed her eyes.Instinctively, Ethan intoned. “You...”The next moment, there was a loud crash as the food spilled all over the ground, catching everyone present by surprise.The woman snapped out of the temporary shock she was in and immediately turned fearful as she moved to clean up the mess, her body trembling as she muttered repeatedly. “Oh no, oh no, oh no.” As Ethan tried to stand up to help

Just watch.”Then the video moved forward quickly before pausing to reveal when Vivian sneakily approached the man she accused of stealing and placed the necklace into his pocket herself.A flurry of gasps escaped the lips of those present at that moment.Ethan shifted his attention to her, his expression riddled with disappointment. “When people like you do shit like this, it makes others wonder if I only pick on the rich. I don't do that. My only wish is that people are treated equally regardless of how much money they have. If he had truly stolen your necklace, I would have been the one to mete out punishment without hesitation but this… what do you have to say for yourself, Ms. Vivian?”Vivian hesitated as several gazes filled wit

    A glance was enough for people to guess that the man she was pointing at was lower class.The man stuttered. “What…”Before he could say more, he was immediately tackled by two muscular men that served as guards for Vivian who was heiress to the Carris family wealth. “I didn't do anything. Let me go!” The man cried out but Vivian only snorted as she reached into his pocket and pulled out an expensive-looking necklace.“You thief, you dare to take my expensive necklace. Do you know how much I bought it?... I will make sure you pay for this.”Just as Vivian was about to order her men to act, Ethan arrived at the scene. “What's happening here?” Adjusting herself to look more appealing to him, Vivian replied. “This pauper dared to try and steal my necklace. I want him punished immediately!”Ethan frowned before glancing at the man.“Mr. Jones, I didn't do it. It's all a misunderstanding.”Vivian snorted. “Then where did I find the necklace?...

    Even the waiter gasped as he watched the bill reach up to a hundred thousand and even then, it did not stop.Once they were done, he was forced to ask if they were certain with Anna inquiring.“Do you think we can't afford it?”“... Not at all ma'am. I'll get them right away.”Watching the waiter scurry away, Anna chuckled.Ethan sighed. “Stop bullying the poor guy.”“It's just so much fun,” Anna remarked with a wide smile.Just as the group delved into discussions about various topics, someone approached their table at that moment.It was a young blonde man with an arrogant smile.“Excuse me, Miss, but would you be interested in joining me at my table?” He began, barely paying any attention to Ethan.Taken aback at first, Aquila looked about, unsure if the man was talking to her.Realizing that he was indeed speaking to her, Aquila intoned. “I'm sorry, what?”“My name is Gilbert Junior Jones, son of Gilbert Senior and heir to the Jones estate.

    Glancing at the origin, Austin found Ethan staring daggers at him with eyes that screamed of murder.Before the situation escalated further, someone, or rather a group, arrived while calling out respectfully.“Ethan!”Ethan shifted his gaze away, allowing Austin to breathe once again.He found a man in a suit approaching, accompanied by guards. But that wasn't what caught his attention.Instead, it was the three beautiful women dressed provocatively behind the man who did for the dual fact that they were the ones who had called out to him and that they were, in fact, Louisa, Aquila, and Anna.They were breathtakingly beautiful to the extent that everyone was staring at them, including Rani.Ethan was rendered speechless with his killing intent vanishing as he stared at the women.Only when Louisa coughed did the atmosphere manage to relax somewhat, with the guards at the gate immediately greeting. “Good evening sir.”The manager glanced at them before remarking. “You both are fired.”
