The System of Power is Money Chapter 185
Ethan parked his car in a fairly large yard, among the houses of people in the neighborhood.He then let out a long sigh, looking at his appearance, which was currently only wearing a neat suit as if going to a formal event."I hope I can do all this well," Ethan muttered in his heart.He then turned off the car engine, not forgetting to make sure that his car had been locked. His footsteps felt heavy, but what could he do, the man still had to continue his steps.Just as Ethan was about to extend his hand, knocking on the dark brown door, suddenly the door was already wide open, revealing a man much older than himself."Hey, Mr. Ethan! You've arrived? Looks like my feeling was quite strong too," Leo said to the man.Ethan, who received such a welcome, seemed to throw a very sweet smile at the man. He then took a subtle breath, not wanting to be heard by the man."Yes, Mr. Leo. I hope I'm not late to pick up your niece," Ethan replied, smiling at the man.Leo then nodded, looking inte

A wide smile appeared perfectly at the corner of Leona's lips; the woman looked very happy. Especially now that they had arrived at the exhibition showcasing many artworks made by villagers.However, as the pamphlets had been widely distributed to the public, the exhibition attracted many people, evident from how Ethan and Leona were struggling to find parking."Oh come on! Can't we go any faster? I can't wait to see the exhibition there. Can't you park more quickly?" asked Leona, who seemed full of enthusiasm.She looked at the people who were already visiting many of the stalls where people were selling things there; she really couldn't wait to visit all the stalls there."Be patient, Miss Leona. There are so many people coming to this exhibition, and it seems that because of the long time you used earlier, we're now having trouble getting a parking spot," Ethan said to the woman.It was visible how Leona became flustered because indeed, she had taken too long getting ready. After s

Ethan was about to approach Citra, but Leona quickly grabbed his hand.She pulled his hand away even before Ethan could speak to Citra."How about that booth over there? Wow! They seem to be selling all their woven goods. I want to buy that knitted sweater they made. Come on, Mr. Ethan! We need to go there before they sell out!"Leona kept pulling Ethan's hand with all her might, but the man clenched his fist tightly, clearly showing how annoyed he was with Leona trying to get his attention."Come on! Don't stop walking like that," Leona scolded him.She blinked her eyes several times, begging Ethan to follow her lead.However, Ethan's thoughts were so scattered that he couldn't think of anything else right now."Enough! I can't accompany you anymore, Miss. Please, give me time to leave for a moment. There's someone I need to meet urgently. I hope you'll understand what I'm saying, Miss," said Ethan as he extended his hand to release Leona's grip on him.At this point, Ethan no longer

"Sorry."Ethan said that one word, which held so many implicit meanings.Only certain people, especially Citra, would understand all the meanings contained in that short word."Why are you here? Aren't you with your girlfriend?" Citra asked, frowning in annoyance.She then folded her arms across her chest, rolling her eyes lazily."Girlfriend? You mean Leona? The woman who met you earlier at the booth...""Enough, stop. Don't talk anymore if you just want to show off about your relationship with that woman. Without you explaining in more detail, I already know that you've been in a relationship with her."Citra folded her arms across her chest, averting her gaze elsewhere.She didn't want to look at Ethan's eyes at all.Just as Ethan took a seat next to her, Citra immediately shifted her position almost to the very edge."Stay where you are or I'll leave," Citra said, making Ethan instantly turn into a statue.He didn't want to take any further risks.A long sigh escaped Ethan's mouth

Ethan immediately sped up his car to a high speed. He really didn't know what else to do at this point.His mind felt truly chaotic. Thinking about what had happened to the woman who had previously gone with him.At first, the man thought everything would be fine. However, suddenly Mr. Leo sent him a message about what had happened to Leona.The man said that his niece was now being rushed to a hospital, he said someone saw Leona get hit by a car."You should have been able to take good care of my niece, Mr. Ethan. So, how is she now, Mr. Ethan? You should have just said if you didn't want to be with her, I would have accompanied her earlier."Those were the words that came out of Mr. Leo's mouth when the phone connection was established with the man.The man's thoughts were really in turmoil right now, he couldn't think clearly anymore."What happened?! How could all this happen?! What should I do now, I've really made a big mistake. Mr. Leo must be furious with me right now."Ethan

Ethan and Mr. Leo's attention was visibly drawn to the doctor who came out with his nurse."You go ahead and take care of it first," said the doctor, giving orders to the nurse behind him, before finally turning his focus to the two anxious-looking men.A sweet smile appeared perfectly at the corner of Robi's lips. After all, he had to be able to calm and ease the tense atmosphere that had built up at that time."How is my niece's condition, doc? Is she okay? Nothing serious happened to her, right? How is she doing?"The barrage of questions expressing his concern came from the man's mouth. A warm smile appeared to calm the worries of the two men."Calm down, sir. We will certainly do our best to treat the patient. You don't need to feel overly worried because the bleeding that occurred could be quickly stopped and handled thanks to the patient being brought in faster. If it had been too late to bring her here, I'm not sure if we could have saved the patient's life or not," said Docto

Amel arrived at the hospital, asking the staff where the room containing the patient who had just been admitted was located.A long sigh escaped the woman's mouth as she turned her gaze elsewhere.She vaguely thought she saw a man who looked familiar in her sight, and quickly abandoned her intention, even though the nurse had clearly been about to say something to her."Miss! Miss!" called the nurse, but Amel clearly ignored her.The woman continued walking, approaching a man who appeared to have just ended a phone call.He seemed to have just contacted someone and ended the call while carrying several plastic bags containing food."Excuse me! I'm sorry, sir. You... know my brother, don't you?"Amel immediately stopped the man, noticing that he appeared much older than Ethan, her brother.The woman still recognized that face; she had been told about him by Ethan, but she forgot the person's name.A long sigh escaped Amel's mouth as she then took a deep breath, trying to regulate her b

Citra glared at the man who was right in front of her. The woman had repeatedly stated that she would never want to go with him, but Martin was forcing her to go."I don't want to go with you. I beg you to leave here now. I don't want to see you here at all. Please, leave my place right now. I want to rest. Please, don't force me to go with you."Citra took a deep breath, trying to hold back the emotions that were about to erupt from within her.It was clear how the woman clenched her fist as if ready to give Martin a raw punch right now.She was really sick of the man's presence who didn't listen to her at all."No, Citra. I will never leave here before you agree to come with me. Come on, no need to play hard to get. Don't worry, I won't take you to a place like before. I just want to invite you for dinner together. Please," the man kept persuading her.It was visible how Martin was also not being stubborn and rude as usual towards her, he seemed like a new person Citra had met.Howe

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

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,

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

"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.
