In the vastness of the dark sky, the stars and moon shine brightly. Making it an amazing sight that is always awaited and longed for by every human being. As if to tell you that in this world, there is no such thing as loneliness.Everyone is in the same circle and will definitely get the same thing, too. Just waiting to open the knot shackling the heart and misleading the mind.In the middle of the crowded street, Ethan rode his motorcycle at a low speed.He was trying to blend in with nature, enjoying the serene atmosphere he had just experienced for the first time.Looking at the dozens of vehicles that passed by endlessly, as if they knew no time, coupled with the street lights that illuminated them, made Ethan feel a sense of freedom.All the hatred and resentment accumulated in his chest for a moment unraveled until it became empty. There was no other thought but to continue traveling and no feeling but calmness. Everything felt good.After riding for a long time for no apparent
"After living abroad for so long, it seems like your brain has changed. I think you should go get yourself checked out," Ethan finally said.Not wanting to experience anything more unexpected, he continued his pace quickly and got on his motorcycle. However, just as he was about to put on his helmet, a disparaging laugh sounded from behind."Hahaha, good drama. What do you guys think?""I think it's better than the dramas on television. A girl goes after an ex-husband who her ex-friend dumped. Isn't that an amazing title?""Hahaha!""How about two losers getting together?""That sounds even more interesting. I'm sure there will be a lot of people interested in watching it. Hahaha!""Really? I think everyone will laugh at them until they're sick."Ethan slowly lowered his helmet again and looked down.Zinnia originally wanted to ignore her three former friends, but when she saw Ethan, who was silent like that, she felt annoyed. She immediately stepped forward and spoke loudly. "Only cr
And just as Hazel had said earlier, Ethan was now standing in front of the five-star hotel where the introduction party was being held.He was accompanied by Hazel, as usual. But this time, there were three bodyguards behind them."I don't know why I feel awkward just for coming here at this hour. I have an important meeting. But... never mind, let's go in! The sooner you come, the sooner the event will be over." Ethan stepped inside with his wide strides.His face, which usually looked calm with a charming smile, now looked tense.Apart from meeting people who contributed greatly to the company, this was the second time he had come to the hotel. It was also the first time something unpleasant happened."Sir, over here." Hazel pointed to the room on the left as they reached the branching hallway.Ethan followed her directions without speaking. But when he reached the double doors, he stopped. His gaze went straight to the object. "I have to get through this and get recognized by them,
"Why are you still missing? Didn't I say to keep a close eye on the published articles and then immediately delete them before anyone sees them?" Ethan walked hurriedly out of the hotel and entered the car with wide-open doors.Hazel took a small jog around the car, and once inside, she said, "The article that was just published didn't have the company hashtag, so our team accidentally missed it. It seems like the person who published this knew about your order beforehand.""Investigate who gave the photo to the journalist!" ordered Ethan, massaging his throbbing forehead. "And don't forget to erase all traces of the photo!""Yes." Then Hazel struggled with her phone and tablet.In the background, Ethan let out several long sighs. None of this would have happened if not for his carelessness. Once again, he regretted his actions last night.For the person who spread it... suddenly, Ethan opened his eyes. Yesterday, he met Ariana's friends. Did they do it?He immediately shook his head
Ethan's car continued to drive through the streets to the city's outskirts.After traveling for almost 2 hours, the four-wheeled vehicle stopped in front of an abandoned building. Ethan got out and looked around the building, filled with grass and moss. The towering gate looked rusty, as did the name plaque that had almost fallen off.Prosperous Orphanage.Ethan sighed softly and slowly entered the courtyard carefully. His eyes kept looking around, trying to get an idea of when the building was still in operation."Even if it's abandoned, it still looks beautiful," Ethan muttered. "A building that could really be them."Ethan's steps stopped at the swing. He held the rusted metal, and when he saw no signs of fragility, he sat on it. His smile was genuine as if he had found the place he had been longing for."Maybe if I had grown up here, things would have been different," Ethan murmured and then slowly began to move the swing, creating a screeching sound from being idle for too long.H
As Ethan had expected, Celeste's main house was busy. Three different cars arrived one after another. Mr. Celeste and his family walked in hurriedly. Their faces did not look good. Even Mr. Celeste's steps looked more firm with both hands clenched tightly, showing how emotional he was at the moment.After reaching the living room, they sat down obediently.Great Master Celeste, sitting alone with Great Mistress Celeste on the far sofa, looked straight ahead with a sharp look in their eyes."You said you would settle everything quietly, but what is this? You're putting our family on the line!" shouted Great Master Celeste angrily.Everyone instantly looked down in fear.Grand Master Celeste's breathing was ragged. He hit the sofa handle and continued, "Just a loser with no background, but why can't you? Look, you're so proud of yourselves. You are saying that he's just useless trash. Now, I guess you're the trash! Useless!""Grandpa!" exclaimed Ariana, who couldn't take it anymore. "I
"Butler, can you escort me to the monitor room?" Ethan stood on the last step of the stairs, staring at the butler, who had his back to him, busy giving instructions to the servants to finish their work.Suddenly, the thin man wearing a special black uniform turned his head.As soon as he knew that it was Ethan calling him, he immediately approached and bowed briefly. "Do you need anything, Young Master?""Can you escort me to the monitor room? I just realized that since coming here, I wasn't informed of its location," Ethan replied seriously."Perhaps the Great Master forgot about it," the butler replied with a simple smile."If you want to go there, I can take you there. Please follow me, Young Master!" Then, the butler tilted his body with one outstretched hand. When Ethan nodded, he then walked towards the interior of the mansion."I've been here for two months, you can take it easy. It would be nice if I had a friend here," Ethan said, breaking the silence between them."It's an
"Why are there only them?" Ethan stared at the monitor intently, then switched to another monitor. "Is there still a room that hasn't appeared yet?""Just a moment, Young Master." The officer returned to his keyboard, and soon, a recording image appeared on the far monitor. "Everything is complete."Ethan stared at the monitors individually and stopped at the far end. "They have their own business," he muttered with a lopsided smile.In Great Mistress Celeste's den, Madame Bernita looked at her mother-in-law with teary eyes. "All my life, I have always been devoted to you and considered you as my mother. But why do you have the heart to treat me like this?""Hah! Since you think of me as a mother, I will teach you properly. One blow is not enough to make you realize what you have done!" shouted Great Mistress Celeste, who raised her hand to give Madam Bernita a second slap, making the woman spontaneously dodge and fall, holding Great Mistress Celeste's left hand."I know I was wrong.
