The System of Power is Money Chapter 147
Amel appeared nervous, finding it difficult to express herself to the man in front of her.Even swallowing her saliva seemed to require a great deal of strength.The sharp gaze Ethan gave her made Amel feel she had no other choice.It seemed she really had to tell Ethan the truth."I'm sorry, bro."Amel lowered her head, her voice weakening, causing Ethan, who was emotional at that moment, to lower his tone.Slowly, the sound of crying began to be heard, causing Amel's body to visibly shake, rising and falling with the rhythm of her sobs."Forgive me, bro."Those were the only words that kept coming out of Amel's mouth. She said it over and over, leaving a big question mark in Ethan's mind.What had actually happened? Why was Amel behaving like this? What was the reason behind the tears and repeated apologies from her mouth?A rather long sigh then escaped his mouth, trying to calm the woman's unceasing tears."Listen to me... tell me everything clearly so I can understand. Whatever h

Citra stared at her bedroom ceiling, which seemed more interesting than her surroundings.Her gaze hadn't shifted for a while.This was followed by a long sigh escaping from her mouth.Images of the events surrounding her engagement swirled in her head.Some time ago, when she and her family had just returned from the engagement venue.They had gotten into an argument when they were in the living room.Citra was no longer willing to stay quiet and resigned. She put up resistance when she felt let down by her own parents."No more objections. You must get ready because Mama and Martin's parents have prepared the wedding for you and Martin," Mrs. Merry said firmly, sounding like she didn't want to be argued with.Citra shook her head repeatedly, rejecting the words of the middle-aged woman."Enough, Ma! Stop controlling every aspect of my life. Have you ever thought about how I feel? Do you have any consideration for all of this? Am I really your child or not?"Citra hoped that her word

Citra stared at the thugs who had just been beaten up by Ethan. She was standing about 50 meters behind him."Run away! Quick, run!"The thugs there were trying to stand up straight with what little strength they had left, while Ethan could be heard letting out a long sigh.The corner of his lip was torn from a punch by one of the thugs that he couldn't dodge in time."Ethan!" Citra called out, making the man turn around and look intently at her.A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. It had been a long time since he'd heard that voice call his name directly.Citra then approached Ethan. As soon as she was in front of him, she immediately wrapped her arms around him in a hug, conveying the sense of calm and safety she felt."Thank you for saving me," Citra said, still hugging him.Ethan was surprised, not expecting the woman to embrace him like that."You're welcome, Citra," Ethan replied, raising his hand to stroke her hair.Slowly, they released their embrace.Without them rea

"Have a drink first, sis."Amel handed a glass of orange juice to the woman.A perfect smile was etched on her face, happy to see Citra again after not meeting for some time.Currently, the three of them were taking seats in the living room, specifically on the row of sofas."How are you, Citra?" asked Amel, touching the back of the woman's hand.Amel couldn't hold herself back anymore, she immediately hugged the woman's body for a long time.She felt so grateful and lucky to have met Citra, who was so kind that she was willing to sacrifice her own happiness for Amel's safety."I'm sorry, sis. It's all my fault."Citra shook her head, disagreeing with the girl's words that seemed to only blame herself."No, Amel. All of this isn't solely your fault. Ethan and I also made the same mistake because we were too busy working, we didn't pay attention to you," said Citra, bringing the girl into her embrace.Amel shook her head, still feeling that everything started from her being easily infl

Milena scanned her eyes around the entire room. The woman was quite surprised that Ethan could live in such a luxurious apartment. Previously, he could only afford to rent a small apartment."How could Ethan get all of this?" Milena muttered, still looking around Ethan's entire apartment.If only Milena had known this from the start, Milena certainly wouldn't have turned her back on Ethan. Moreover, Ethan's appearance cannot be denied, the man is so handsome, it's just that he doesn't have much wealth.But now that Ethan's position was no longer at the bottom, Milena naturally wanted to get back with that man.Milena's smile rose on her face. The woman nodded her head with that thought. "Yes, Ethan would definitely want to get back with me."Her admiration for Ethan's apartment made Milena unconsciously walk towards Ethan's room. But before the woman could open the slightly ajar apartment door, a voice stopped her."Where are you going, Milena? What are you doing?" asked Ethan, who im

Ethan remained silent, allowing the kiss to continue for a moment. His mind seemed blank, unable to react to Milena's sudden action.Getting a green light from Ethan made Milena smile. Without breaking their kiss, Milena tried to wrap her arms around Ethan's neck, deepening their kiss even more.Crash!The sound of something falling from inside made Ethan immediately aware of what they were doing. He quickly broke off the kiss with Milena."Stop it, Milena!" Ethan said, immediately pushing Milena's hands away.What Ethan did surprised Milena quite a bit. They had both been enjoying the kiss just moments ago."What's wrong, Ethan?"Ethan didn't answer. He chose to move to sit on the couch across from her, trying to calm himself down after what he had just done. After his awareness fully returned, he looked at Milena, who appeared disappointed and annoyed."What's wrong?" Milena asked again.Ethan sighed. What Milena had just done was way out of line. They were no longer in a relationsh

Milena smiled seeing Ethan's expression that couldn't refuse her. The man certainly couldn't kick her out, considering Ethan needed her right now."That's right, Ethan! You can't possibly kick me out, can you? I have something you want."Ethan looked at Milena with disgust, he regretted enough having known that woman, even to the point of having a relationship for more than 2 years."Alright, Milena." Ethan took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. "Now give me that recording," he said finally.Milena raised her eyebrows, shaking her head in disagreement, "Didn't I say we don't need to rush, Ethan? I still want a reunion between us."Milena pulled up the corner of her mouth, it felt good to be able to play with Ethan like this. Moreover, Ethan's adorable expression made Milena unable to resist. True, she had regretted wasting the handsome Ethan."I miss you, Ethan, sorry I acted stupidly." Milena pulled Ethan's hand, held the man's hand and brought it to her chest. "My heart still beat

In prison, Richard had truly reached his breaking point. The man who usually lived freely was now locked up behind bars with other inmates."Damn it! I can't keep going on like this, argh!"Richard's shout became the center of attention for the other prisoners. One of them glared sharply at Richard. "Have you gone crazy? You're making everyone uncomfortable."Richard turned, his irritation growing as someone dared to try to control him. "Do you know who I am?" Richard said, challenging the man with an equally sharp stare.The man with tattoos on his arms immediately stood up and approached Richard with an unfriendly look. "Hey! New inmate, you trying to act tough in front of us, huh? Don't you know who I am?" The man grabbed Richard's collar. "You should have found out who you're dealing with first."Richard smiled cynically, ignoring and unafraid of the man still gripping his collar. "You're the one who should find out who you're dealing with. I am..."Bam!Before Richard could finis

As promised to the woman, Ethan decided to go to Citra's house and talk to her parents.His hand, which was already holding several plastic bags filled with fruits, was immediately taken over by a household assistant when the man arrived at Citra's house. Citra, who was at the top of the stairs, immediately descended it, smiling when she saw that he was already at her house. This was something she had been waiting for, she was really happy that the person she loved would express his desire to marry her to her parents. "Your parents are there, right Citra?" Asked Etha after the two of them decided to sit on a fairly soft sofa in the living room.Citra wanted to answer, but suddenly from the other direction came the voice of Citra's father. "We're here, Ethan." Ethan turned his head towards our parents who were currently walking towards the two of them and decided to sit on the opposite sofa. Suddenly, the man's heart was unsafe in the presence of Citra's parents, as if he really fel

After their romantic dinner, Ethan drove slowly towards Citra's house. But before he actually left he turned to Amel who was still on the terrace of the restaurant. "Come on Amel, let's go home together," said Ethan who couldn't possibly leave his sister alone at the restaurant.Amel smiled, of course she couldn't possibly interfere with the two of them being together. She then shook her head and said, "Don't worry, Ethan, I'll go with lecturer Malik. In a few minutes he will come to pick me up."Hearing the words from Amel made Ethan nod his head, he then decided to get into Citra's car, considering that Citra brought a car and there was no way if he let her drive alone. He then got into the car after making sure Citra was in the car. He then began to drive the car through the crowded city. While driving, Ethan occasionally turned his head towards Citra, feeling happy that she had accepted his feelings. Even though he had felt that she would not accept his feelings, especially sin
Chapter 302
For a long time Ethan waited for Citra's arrival who had yet to show her nose. He really felt worried if she didn't come to see him in the end. Even though he had tried to give his best to her. If she didn't come, what about her? Will he continue to wait like this and not express his feelings? Of course that can't happen. He had to keep expressing his feelings to her and hope that she would come soon and accept his feelings.Amel, who had been beside the man all along, of course knew what the man was worried about. It had been more than 10 minutes since the woman he was waiting for had shown her nose, and he was also afraid that she wouldn't come in the end. But Amel thought that the woman would definitely come, considering that she seemed so worried about her brother's condition and always tried to get close to him. But why she hadn't shown up yet made her feel worried."Why hasn't Citra come yet?" Amel muttered to herself. Her gaze continued to settle on the door of the restaurant,
Chapter 301
Tonight as planned, Ethan and Amel went to a restaurant that the man had booked in advance. Of course, this is because he wants to express his feelings to someone so special. That someone, of course, was none other than Citra. Tonight, he was going to express those feelings to her. He had been harboring his feelings for a long time, and it was time for him to express them. He didn't want her to leave him and choose to be with another man who was more serious. He must choose to be serious before someone else is serious to that woman."How is it, Brother Ethan? Are you ready now?"Of course, Amel as the younger sister of the man agreed with her brother's idea. She certainly wanted to see her brother happy together with the woman he loved. Moreover, she was a good woman who never left her brother under any circumstances, and she liked her very much. Besides being kind, she was also beautiful and very smart. There were so many women who envied that woman, and so many men who wanted to mak

After a few days of hospitalization, Ethan decided to go home because he was now in a better condition than before. His gaze then turned towards a woman who was currently standing not far from him. The woman was none other than Citra who was staring at him while wearing a smile. Of course, Citra knew that this time they decided to go home because last night the man said he no longer felt at home in the hospital. Actually, Ethan still had to be treated in order to be really in good condition, but since he felt uncomfortable in the hospital, inevitably, Citra agreed to the man's request and chose to take care of him when at home. At least the man wouldn't feel bored if he was at home."We're going home now, right, Citra?"The man asked again because he was afraid that suddenly a doctor or nurse would try to get in the way. Ethan already felt tired and shouldn't be in a hospital like this which would only make him more tired. Actually, he wasn't doing anything and wasn't really doing muc

Leona left the hospital with blurred eyes. She really felt sad because she got a rejection from the man who was supposed to be hers. How could that man reject her, after so many men wanted to have her and wanted to make her their lover? But what about that man? Yes, not affected by him at all. He should have had the same feelings as other men when he was close to her. But, unfortunately, that man seemed to have no heart.Leona, who continued to walk and saw nothing, suddenly bumped into a man who was just about to enter the hospital. The man was quite surprised when someone suddenly bumped into him. Luckily, he immediately tried to catch Leona who was about to fall or else she would have fallen on the floor."I'm sorry that I didn't see," Leona said, feeling a little guilty for suddenly realizing that she was trying to make a man fall because of her negligence.Without caring about the man, Leona decided to quickly walk away. In fact, she did not heed the man's calls at all. Meanwhile
Chapter 298
"Ethan, I have something to say to you, Ethan."After a long period of silence where it was just the two of them, Leona felt that this was her chance to express her feelings for him. After all, how long was she going to keep her feelings bottled up? The man in front of her had to know that she actually had feelings and wanted to be in a relationship. Even though he knew that the man liked Citra, but still, he should at least let him know that he had more feelings for the man and hope that those feelings would be reciprocated by the man.Ethan frowned in confusion, looking suspiciously at the woman in front of him. What was the woman going to ask? That is, what did she want to say? There seemed to be something quite important that the woman wanted to say, but somehow she was not ready to listen to it. However, refusing to listen didn't seem like a good idea, so inevitably she chose to nod her head, letting the woman say everything she wanted to say, even though she didn't like what the

"How are you, Ethan? Are you okay?"Leona asked immediately when she was right inside the man's room. It appeared that the man was currently hospitalized, and he was on a bed with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened to him. Though it was clear that the man had been kidnapped by someone unknown to Leona. She didn't know who had tried to kidnap the man. It seemed like she would ask later after having a short conversation with the man.Ethan smiled as he nodded his head. He knew that Leona had also helped search for him by mobilizing several men, as well as Leo who did not remain silent when he was in danger. The two of them were really instrumental in finding him, making him feel happy to have people close to him who were so kind and willing to look for him when in danger."I'm fine, Leona. Thank you for worrying about me."Leona just nodded her head. The woman decided to put down the fruits she had bought at a shop on the side of the road. She placed it right on the table,

"Where am I?"Ethan's gaze turned right and left, trying to ascertain where he was. Last he remembered, he was in a stuffy warehouse where people were trying to torture him, let alone a fat man who was so creepy. But why was she in a place that was all white, as if it was a hospital? It was because she had come to the hospital before, and had even been a patient. But, how could he be in a hospital like this now? Shouldn't he still be in the warehouse?Those questions kept swirling in his brain until he finally caught the face of someone smiling at him. It was Citra, a woman who was always by his side when he was not well. She smiled as if she was happy to see him awake."Citra, how did I get here? Wasn't I in a warehouse before?" he asked, staring at the beautiful woman whose gaze was currently drawn to him.Citra gave him a smile. She then helped the man to sit up and rested his head right on the back of the bed. "It's a long story, Ethan. But everything is fine now. You're safe now.
