The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Enigmatic Ethan Black Chapter 121
Ethan didn't know who the man with Violet was, but as an engaged woman, she wouldn't be bold enough to show up in public holding hands with another man.So he just concluded he was her fiancé, Vincent Dutchman.Vincent Dutchman brazenly stepped into the limelight and twirled himself around as he looked into the faces of those close to him."Why, you may ask? Look around you. This place is filled with most of the wealthy and famous people in Springdale.""He's not famous and he's definitely not from a rich family, so how did he come in here?"Violet cleared her throat noisily and glared at Ethan."Didn't you hear him? Tell everyone where you got the invitation you showed the guards at the door because they wouldn't have let you in without you showing them an invitation!"The girls who had been outside with Violet immediately stepped forward and chipped in, "That's true. When we saw him lurking outside the parking lot, he didn't have an invitation.""If he had an invitation card he woul

His response got everyone talking, and the loudest voice belonged to Vincent."What? You do not have an invitation? How did you get in then? I'm pretty sure the security men at the front would never let anyone in without confirming your invitation card," Vincent exclaimed."I didn't say I didn't give them an invitation to confirm. I said I'm not with it," Ethan nonchalantly rephrased.Vincent's brow furrowed into an annoyed frown. "If you gave them your invitation card, then you should be with it. What the hell are you saying?""I was with it, but I don't remember putting it back into my pocket when I walked past them. I think I've forgotten it somewhere," Ethan kept saying, not looking the least bothered that his nonchalant replies were getting on Vincent's nerves.Seeing Vincent get angry, Violet turned and violently slammed her palm on the table next to her. "Ethan Black! Is this all some kind of joke to you?""Because of you, Mr. Reese totally misunderstood my fiancé's intentions

Andy sighed deeply."Yes, Commander. Hamon knows you took his grandson, and it's common knowledge he doesn't play with this particular grandson of his. Doesn't matter what he has to do to get him back and get back at you."Ethan finally grasped what was going on."So let me get this straight. The security camera right outside the hall's exit has cameras which caught me staring at the child for two minutes, and his grandfather thinks I took his boy?""Yes, Commander. The moment you walked past Tyrion, the camera went blank, and by the time it was restored, the boy was missing along with the other children who were with him."Andy paused, realizing he was doing a lot of explaining. Why was the Commander sounding like he had no idea what was going on? The security footage clearly showed that he took Tyrion. Was he mistaken, or did Ethan really take Tyrion and was just denying it?Andy was still trying to figure out what was happening when Ethan's voice came up in his ear."I don't know w

The night sky brightened up in just a few hours. Matilda left her room to get coffee from the kitchen. On her way back, she saw Chloe and Ethan walking out of the house."Good morning, Mom," Chloe greeted when her eyes met Matilda's.Matilda looked like she wanted to say something, but she reined it in and just hummed in reply to Chloe's greeting. Then sauntered back to her room."I think my mother is finally starting to like you," Chloe chuckled as she proceeded out of the house with Ethan.Ethan only had one helmet, so he helped Chloe wear it.It was his first time wearing it on someone else. So he took his time to make sure it was sitting securely on Chloe's head before backing away from her.Chloe hurriedly climbed the bike, thankful that she was wearing a helmet which hid her rosy turned cheeks.When Ethan helped her put her helmet on, she didn't know why, but her heart was beating crazily. Maybe she was falling sick and didn't know it.Ethan didn't know what was going through Ch

Josiah did as instructed; he made sure the news got to the ears of the people it was meant for, and he used words these people would understand without giving too much away.Daniel Voltia didn't react at first when he heard the news.Ethan was sitting on the swivel chair in his office at Astoria Corporation when Kane called him."Commander, did you ask Daniel Voltia to keep watch over your wife and daughter?""Why would I? You're already doing it," Ethan replied.Hearing him, Kane reported, "I don't know how he did it, but three of his men are working as security guards in Honey's school just this afternoon, and four others are lurking around the school pretending to be passersby.""Then there are also three new security guards in Pearl Hotel, and there are also four men outside posing as passersby.""A bold way to tell others whose side he is on. Keep an eye on them and don't let them know you're watching them.""Okay, Commander."As the call ended, the door to his office was pushed

Once it was a few minutes to 6pm, Ethan abandoned every other thing he had going on and rode back to the house. Claire had dressed up Honey and herself. Despite coming in late and even changed into fresh clothes, he still had to wait an additional ten minutes for Matilda to finish dressing herself. "We're not going to a fashion parade or anything. Why are you decked in luxurious clothes and why are you putting on so many jewelries?" Claire couldn't help but ask when she saw Matilda walk out shining. The woman had spent more than an hour meticulously dressing herself up for a mere dinner. "We're going to eat in Pearl Hotel. You have no idea who we'll encounter there, it's only right that I dress like this so that whoever I come across, whether a stranger or someone I've always known will know I'm no longer the Matilda they used to know." "I'm now Matilda Brown, the mother of Chloe William who's the assistant manager of Pearl Hotel! Whether they like it or not, they'll need to acco

Inside one of the hotel rooms on the second floor of the Pearl Hotel, Matilda threw her phone at Claire and quickly held her cutlery."Here, I want you to take unaware pictures of me when I'm eating steak. I want it to be as natural as possible, so don't tell me before you take the picture."Claire collected the phone and got up, standing in different angles to get good shots."Why didn't dad come with you?" Chloe couldn't hold it any longer and voiced out.Her question was meant for Claire, but Matilda snorted loudly."Your loser father is always busy drinking himself to stupor somewhere or gambling. Besides, I'm already humiliated when the sisters I play cards with mention what kind of loser he is.""I would rather the ground open and swallow me if I let such a disgrace come with me to a place like this where any of my sisters could stumble upon him."Chloe's grip on the spoon she was feeding Honey with tightened, but she said nothing else in reply.After taking more than a hundred p

The room suddenly fell silent as everyone gazed at the car key in disbelief. However, Joffrey Bolton snorted and snatched the key from Ethan. He held it up to his eyes, turning it around to have a better look at it before he sneered. "What is this? Do you think we're children that you can easily fool? The Koenigsegg Jesko is a sports car, and it's not hidden knowledge that most cars are automatic.""I've driven the Koenigsegg Jesko before, and it was without a key. If there was a slot for a key, then I would know." Rose folded her hands underneath her bosom and snickered, "Chloe William, is your husband really trying to fool adults like us by acting like a rich man? He really has no shame!"Leonard stretched his hand towards Joffrey, who dropped the keys in his palm. He stared down at it for a long time before he carelessly tossed it on the table."This is really a Koenigsegg Jesko's car key. Some old versions of the Jesko work with a key like every other normal car, but even cars

Wexford That evening, Declan Wellington felt cooped up at home, so he left the house to spend the day golfing with a close friend of the Wellingtons who owned a golf course. They golfed together for three hours before they got tired and drove to his house to rest. Marvin Phelps poured him a drink before asking politely, “This may be out of place for me to ask, Mr. Wellington, but you seemed out of it throughout today. Is anything the matter?” “What?” An absent-minded Declan didn’t know when he blurted out, glancing at him. Marvin Phelps sat up, now fully convinced there was something on Declan’s mind. With a serious look on his face, he cautiously continued, “What is the problem? Is anyone troubling you? Say the word and I’ll have that person’s legs crushed to bits and forcefully drag them here!” Declan raised his eyes to look at him. Even if he said nothing, his eyes lit up a little when he recalled who Marvin was. The Phelps family was headed by this man despit

Scott William was instantly taken aback. Then he gritted his teeth in rage and resisted the urge to grab her by the collar as he yelled at her angrily. “What do you think you’re doing? He’s your son-in-law, how could you think of doing something so despicable to him!”“I know you’ve been looking for ways to get rid of him, but he’s having a psychotic breakdown? Matilda Brown, are you out of your mind?!” However, the woman ignored him and reached into her bag for a file. She placed it on the counter and continued speaking to the officer with a straight face. “Here. This is the result of the psych evaluation. You can check with the hospital he took it at just to be sure.” Scott closed the distance between them and grabbed her arm firmly, “If you have nothing better to do, then turn around and go back home.” “I know you’re scared of this affecting our family, but you don’t have anything to worry about because I’ll take care of this!” “Ethan didn’t do what they’re accusing him of

The sergeant and the other officers were slightly taken aback by his sudden compliance. Given that Charles and Kane were questioning their every word, they assumed they would have to use force to get him out of here. However, not only was he complying, but he was even flashing them a faint, non-aggressive smile. It was as though he had the situation under control which caused them to wonder why. They were yet to be reached by anyone from the higherups, so what was this guy doing. Since Ethan was coming with them willingly, there was no need to cuff him at all. So the sergeant nodded and led him to the station. The reception was decvoid of people, but those who were in their rooms before a few minutes ago, were all standing beside their windows watching who was getting arrested. Ethan walked to the passenger side of the car and glanced around him with an unbothered smile before proceeding to get in. In Wexford County, in the Wellington family residence, Declan Wellington was w

Ethan’s eyes darkened instantly. Almost immediately, he felt a call come into his phone and checked the caller to see it was Declan calling. He was silent for a few seconds before assured her calmly, “I’ll bring them back. Chloe and Honey, I’ll make sure they come back without a scratch.” “For now, focus on getting better. Neither of them would like it if return to see you in such a terrible state.” Then he ended the call without waiting for her response and answered Declan’s. As soon as the call connected, Declan’s bubbly voice sounded in his ears, “Your little bastard is a little too pretty. Truly her mother’s daughter.” “Your genes almost lost the fight, but her eyes saved you. Hopefully, if your other bastard lives, it would put up a fight to look exactly like you.” Ethan tightened his grip around his phone, but said nothing. He remained expressionless, but his eyes beamed furious. Yet, he couldn’t bring himself to say anything in really. Declan had truly blinded him from

Ethan didn’t react immediately. He was silent for several seconds before he responded. “You’re the highly esteemed head of the Welllington family. Why resort to threatening your enemy with somsone close to them when you can face them head on yourself?”Declan yawned boredly from the other end. “What nonsense are you talking about? My enemy? You? You really think I think of you as my enemy?” “In what world did you think a bastard like you is worthy of becoming an enemy of Declan Wellington?” “We may share the same father, but to me, you’re nothing more than a confused rat. Sure, you’ve spent a few years in the army and earned yourself a few lackeys, but vagrant like you should know their place.”“Simply talking to me is a privilege you should never have. Whatever I’ll make you go through is a privilege you don’t deserve. Even if I kill you, you should be grateful I let you die by my hands!”Ethan chuckled calmly and went on to reply. “I was told you sent one of the best men your

Meanwhile, Charles Wilkins was looking into the people who crashed into Claire’s car and took Chloe. He tracked them down to their base in a nightclub. The club had lax security. Hence, he wasn’t stopped by the hefty men standing the door as he walked into the club. It was a few minutes past 7 in the evening and the club was getting filled by people. He stood in the middle of the room and glanced around before he spotted the VIP section and strutted straight to it. It didn’t take him long to find the room of the club’s own given that there were six hefty bodyguards in front of the door. Inside the room, a short and fat man was sitting on the couch with two of his colleagues while watching three unclad ladies dancing on a strip poles. Because the music in the room was so loud, he didn’t hear the tussle outside and only realized something was wrong when an unfamiliar man walked into the room wiping his hands seemingly clean hands clean. Charles didn’t look at anyone as he

As soon as Lewis William ended the call, he stood over an unconscious Chloe with a lewd look in his eyes. Ever since he knew right from wrong, he was always told of her lucky he was to have such beautiful cousins. Had Chloe not fallen out of grace with the William family and most people in Springdale, he had no doubt his life would still be filled with words of how lucky he was to have Chloe and Claire as his cousins. He never saw the beauty everyone saw, but now that he was alone with her and could see her up close, he finally saw it. Was she not his cousin, he would’ve slept with her first before handing her over to this gallery director. As he walked out of the house, he received a call from somsone. “What do you think you’re doing? I clearly told you the person I am after is Claire William!” Vivian Martell yelled from the other end as soon as the call connected. Lewis sucked in a deep breath to keep himself from screaming back at her and retorted calmly, “There’s no need to

A minute later, Charles turned to Ethan and reported solemnly, “Mrs. Black wasn’t taken by Declan Wellington. She was taken by the William family.” In the William family residence. Adam William paced to and fro in the living room, his hands clasped behind his back and brows knitted together in worry. “Grandfather, after today, I will make sure our William family will no longer be looked down on by other families!” Those were the words Lewis said to him this morning before he left the house. Ever since Astoria Corporation pulled away their investment, other companies followed suit. They were not only knee-deep in debt, but every valuable thing in their house had been taken by the bank and everyone they were owing. They took everything ranging from jewelries, electronics and furnitures. Even the expensive looking lights were not left out. Adam had run to those whom he had helped when the William family were at its peak a few months ago, but they all hung up on him the moment th

He called her three times and each time, the phone wasn’t answered. There was no denying it now. Soenthing had really happened. His brows knitted into a tight frown as he switched to calling Claire. But just like Chloe, Claire didn’t answer her phone either. As soon as the third call ended, the screen of his phone lit up with a call from Claire and he eagerly answered it. “Where are you? I’ve been calling Chloe. Did something…” He was suddenly cut off by a voice that didn’t belong to Claire. “Hello, this phone belongs to a woman involved in a car accident. Seeing that your contact is saved with ‘Brother-in-law’ I thought it was wise to return your call.” His pupils instantly dilated and he strutted quickly to the window, away from Honey’s earshot.. He pressed the phone against his ear rig heed and repeated in disbelief, “Accident? She was involved in an accident? What about the other woman in the car with her? Is she badly injured? In fact, tell me which hospital you are!” In
