THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 138: there are plenty of things you could do for me..
“Whoa!” Mike exclaimed, eyes wide in shock. His face turned serious with a hint of nervousness. “Man, that’s... seriously intense.” Ethan smirked. “It gets better. Her husband’s going to catch you two in bed.” Mike nearly jumped out of his seat. “Hey, don’t joke like that!” He looked genuinely alarmed. “Come on, we’ve been friends for over a decade—you wouldn’t throw me under the bus like that, right?” Clearly shaken, Mike imagined worst-case scenarios. What if the husband showed up with a gun? Or even a baseball bat? Either way, it sounded painful. But Ethan reassured him calmly, “Relax. The guy’s not violent. If he walks in, the worst he’ll do is break down in tears. He’s not the type to get physical.” Mike breathed a little easier, but was still puzzled. “So what’s the deal? What did this guy do to you that you want to put him through something like that?” Ethan’s tone softened. “You’ve got it wrong. He didn’t do anything to me. He’s actually a good man, and I consider him a
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 139: All this while you never notices me
Ethan could easily tell that, as a businessman, Corny didn’t really have much in common with an unemployed guy like him. But Corny still seemed eager to get closer to Clara through Ethan. Ethan smiled and said, “No problem! When are you coming back to Los Angeles? I’ll set up a dinner for you and Miss Clara.” Corny replied, “Let me check my schedule... The earliest I can make it is the day after tomorrow.” Ethan then added, “Corny, do me a favor—don’t let your wife know you're coming back just yet.” Corny sounded puzzled. “Why? Every time I come home from a business trip, I always let her know in advance. If I don’t, she gets upset.” “My wife loves me a lot. She even insists on picking me up at the airport whenever I get back. She says she likes the feeling of welcoming her husband home.” Ethan sneered inwardly. Corny, you poor fool. You’ve been living in the dark for so many years and still have no clue! 'Why do you think she insists you tell her ahead of time? It’s because sh

Ethan sat in a modest room at an Express Hotel, sipping a cup of black tea from a paper cup. Across from him sat Mike—an old friend, now his ally in a new mission.Whenever Mike traveled to New York, he usually stayed at luxury hotels like The Peninsula. But this time, he didn’t bat an eye at the modest Express Hotel room Ethan had booked—a place that cost less than $50 a night.Mike understood Ethan’s background well. Despite not coming from wealth, Ethan had once trained alongside basketball legends like LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, and Dwyane Wade—an opportunity few from humble origins ever had.“It was actually pretty easy getting here by plane,” Mike said casually as he settled in.Ethan studied his old friend’s striking features—so reminiscent of a young Leonardo DiCaprio—and spoke sincerely. “Mike, I asked you to come not just to catch up, but also because I need a favor.”Mike picked up the paper cup and took a sip of the cheap black tea without complaint.“Say no more, man,

THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 1: Good For Nothing Cab Driver
A cab pulls up to the grand entrance of the Sunset Tower Hotel, its sleek exterior gleaming under the golden rays of the afternoon sun. The hotel's majestic billboard, adorned with the iconic Sunset Tower Hotel logo, proudly stands guard over the entrance.**"Sir, we've arrived at the Sunset Tower Hotel!" A soft, calming voice filled the air, courtesy of Ethan Sinclair, the taxi driver. His words gently broke the steadiness that enveloped the luxury establishment."Thank you," the stranger replied, a hint of relief in his voice. "Could you please help me with my luggage out of the trunk?""Of course," Ethan responded promptly, exiting his cab and assisting the stranger in retrieving his belongings. As he closed the trunk, the stranger inquired, "How much do I owe you?""Two hundred bucks!!" Ethan replied, referring to his standard fare."Here, I'll give you five hundred bucks for the extra effort I put in for you today!!" the stranger said, reaching for his wallet. However, upon exam
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 02: Young Master
Without any warning, the caller abruptly terminated the call, leaving Ethan in a state of bewildered curiosity. He questioned the identity of the mysterious "Young Master" and wondered how an unfamiliar voice had obtained his private phone number.Despite the pain of his wife's betrayal, he pushed it aside and eagerly pressed the down-floor button, longing for the safety of the lobby.As the elevator doors glided open, Ethan stepped out into the vibrant and bustling lobby. His thoughts were consumed by the painful scene of his wife's betrayal, playing on a loop in his mind.Lost in thought, Ethan accidentally collided with a stylishly attired man adorned with sleek black glasses."I'm sorry," Ethan mumbled apologetically. However, the man, his expression concealed behind an inscrutable mask, adjusted himself with composure and silently walked away, leaving Ethan unsettled and unanswered.Moving toward where he parked his cab, Ethan's mind became a whirlwind of apprehension.The unkn
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 3: She Kicked Ethan out
In Ethan's mindscape, digital chimes formed a symphony, harmonizing with the emergence of a serene voice."New Host Founded. Welcome, esteemed Master. I am Amanda, your Ancestral heir System. It is my pleasure to guide you through this grand initiation?""Let's see what you got?," Ethan replied, his voice tinged with both curiosity and trepidation."Initiating system loading sequence. 100%... 90%... 60%... 40%... 20%... 10%... Congratulations, Master! You have successfully unlocked the Ancestor System."The ethereal voice accompanied a mesmerizing display of code materializing before Ethan's eyes. As if guided by an unseen force, the code coalesced into an intricate screen, presenting two distinct options:"Grand Master Legacy.""New Mission""Please select your desired starting point, Young Master."Ethan, his heart thrumming with anticipation, made his choice. "Let's begin with the Grand Master Legacy.""An excellent decision, Young Master. The Grand Master Legacy unveils the rewards
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 4: Let's Get Divorce
The iron gates slammed shut with a clang that echoed through Ethan's bones. Adrenaline still thrumming, he stood up, brushing off the dust that clung to his clothes like a mocking taunt. "You'll regret this," he spat.A guttural laugh from one of the guards cut through the air."Get out of here, loser! No one wants you or your threats."Ethan swallowed the bile that rose in his throat. His mind, a frantic kaleidoscope, ticked away the seconds. 9:46 PM. 59 seconds left. The weight of the timer on his wrist was a physical ache.He stumbled towards his cab, the world blurring into a smear of neon and honking horns. Every stop sign and every red light felt like a personal attack.His mission, once a thrilling gamble, was now a desperate scramble for survival.As he weaved through the city, a flicker of hope caught his eye. A tiny storefront, its window aglow with the warm light of a single bulb. A woman, her face etched with the weariness of a thousand closed doors, sat huddled inside.Et

Chapter 137: Putting Renee down
Ethan had already settled the score with Tony and Cayden. Now, there was one more person on his list—Renee. Renee hadn’t harmed Ethan directly. In fact, she hadn’t even blocked his number. He figured that if they happened to cross paths on the street, she’d probably still smile and greet him as if nothing ever happened. Over the past three years, unlike others, Renee had never mocked him for being a live-in son-in-law. And yet, Ethan still held resentment toward her. “If it weren’t for Renee Quinn,” Ethan thought, “maybe Maya wouldn’t have changed into the person she is today.” He could still vividly recall the sweet, sincere, and innocent Maya from three years ago. Back then, after marrying Ethan, she would politely ignore flirtatious advances from other guys on campus and purposely maintain a respectful distance from any man. She had once been the picture of loyalty and purity. But everything changed after Maya witnessed Renee cheating on her husband for the first time follow
Chapter 136: Custody of the child
Maya stared at Cayden in disbelief. They had never been intimate, so she knew without a doubt that the baby wasn’t his.“What are you saying?” she asked, confused. “If I don’t go through with the abortion, how can we even get married?”Cayden had previously told her he didn’t mind the pregnancy, but also claimed that his grandfather was old-fashioned and would never approve unless she terminated the baby.Now, Cayden took a deep breath, already prepared with an answer. “Maya… I need to be honest. I lied to you.”“Lied to me?” Maya’s expression froze. “About what?”Lowering his head, Cayden put on a guilty, remorseful look. “The truth is… my grandfather doesn’t even know you’re pregnant—or that you’ve been married before. I never told him.”“As for what I said about needing to have an abortion before we could get married… I made that up too.”Maya blinked, puzzled. “But why would you lie about something like that?”Cayden sighed, playing the part of the conflicted lover. “Because I was
Chapter 135: Cayden's plans
“What’s going on, Shane?”Cayden looked at his brother, confused and concerned. They were close, and he could tell something was off. Shane seemed unusually downcast, and it even looked like he had been crying.Letting out a heavy sigh, Shane said quietly, “Cayden, there’s something you need to know. Your symptoms may have eased for now, but the doctors found... side effects.”He hesitated, then continued, “They believe the virus you were infected with may have affected your fertility.”Cayden’s expression froze, the color draining from his face.To a man, losing a finger or even a limb was painful—but losing the ability to have children was a crushing blow to his pride and identity.Physically, he might still appear whole—but in this vital way, he was now broken.“You’re saying... I’ll never be able to father a child?” Cayden asked, grabbing Shane’s arm in panic.Shane tried to reassure him. “Cayden, don’t jump to conclusions. It’s just a possibility, not a certainty. The medical res
Chapter 134: Cayden's infertility
Cayden was in an exceptionally good mood today. He believed he had finally succeeded in toppling Ethan from his role as president of the Walt Disney Corporation, reducing him to nothing more than a broke nobody.Even better, he had forced Ethan to divorce Maya—the woman Cayden had been pursuing—effectively stealing her away.To Cayden, everything was going exactly according to plan.He’d never been one to lose in matters of love, and this felt like just another victory.Although Ethan had injured one of Cayden’s fingers, it wasn’t something that seriously disrupted his daily life.He had trained himself to be ambidextrous, so eating, drinking, or even playing games on his phone posed no issue.After chatting with Maya on the phone for a while, and feeling pleased with himself, Cayden finished his IV treatment and invited her to join him for a round of Call of Duty: Warzone.Cayden couldn’t move the index and middle fingers on his right hand, but luckily, he only needed his thumb to pl
Chapter 133: Castrate Tony West
If Tony and Cayden had stayed in New York, Ethan might have found it harder to deal with them. The Huxley family still held considerable influence there, and Ferragamo and Salvatore wouldn’t have had the freedom to act as boldly as they did in Los Angeles. But Tony and Cayden had foolishly come to L.A., stepping straight into Ethan’s territory. In doing so, they had sealed their own fate. It wouldn’t be Ethan’s fault if they left the city broken and ruined. He dialed Ferragamo and said calmly but coldly, “It’s time. Handle it.” Ferragamo replied, “Understood, Mr. Ethan. Do you want me to eliminate Tony West?” Given that the West family was already nearing bankruptcy and Tony had the audacity to sleep with Maya, getting rid of him wouldn’t take much effort. But Ethan didn’t want to go that far—at least not for now. He remembered Tony’s mother once tearfully begging him for mercy, and he wasn’t completely heartless. “Don’t kill him,” Ethan said flatly. “Just make sure he can never
