Price Of Grace: The System Made Me Billionaire
He sacrificed everything for the woman he loved. She left him and his mother to die. Now, a mysterious game is giving him a chance to take everything back.
For three years, Ethan sacrificed his dreams, career, and self-respect for his marriage. He believed that love meant standing by his wife, even when she treated him like a failure.
But when a horrific car accident left him and his mother trapped inside a burning vehicle, his wife made a choice that shattered everything.
She believed another man over her own husband.
She ignored his desperate pleas.
And when he begged her for money to save his dying mother, she made him kneel before humiliating him in front of everyone.
Ethan survived, but the man who once loved her died that night.
Then something unimaginable happens to him.
A mysterious gaming app gave him a real life task, and after finishing it, not only he earned enough money to save his mother, but also provided financial freedom with every task assigned.
But the game has rules he doesn't know.
Its missions are becoming increasingly dangerous.
And someone may already be watching his every move.
Will Ethan use this second chance to become the man he was meant to be, or will the game turn him into something far more dangerous?
After all, survival is only the beginning.

Chapter: she is easy to talkEthan’s P.O.V. (Continued)A young woman stood near the entrance, holding a bouquet in one hand and a small gift bag in the other.She was dressed in a light blue formal suit, with her long brown hair falling neatly over her shoulders.There was an air of confidence about her, although the slight hesitation in her eyes suggested that she wasn't entirely sure whether she had entered the right room.I just stared at her blankly, watching her approach my bed hesitantly.“Uhhhh…… I am sorry, Miss. I didn’t recognise you.” I said to her apologetically, trying to adjust my position, but it only made me wince.“I am Ava Bennett, Mr. Vance.” She introduced herself quietly.“And yes, we don’t know each other.” She added with an apologetic smile.I was relieved that there was no identity mistake. But her last name sounded familiar.I just didn’t remember where I heard it.“My father is Richard Bennett, the old man you saved yesterday,” she explained, and I remembered her.She was with her fath

Chapter: confronting herEthan’s P.O.V. (Continued)For a moment, neither of us spoke.She brought all the memories of my humiliation last night.How she made me kneel and begged her for the money so that I could save my mother.She believed Mike over him and let Mike humiliate him in front of everyone.Sarah stood at the entrance, wearing a beige designer coat over a black dress.Her dark hair was tied loosely behind her head, and oversized sunglasses covered most of her face.She looked as though she had come directly from a luxury hotel rather than our home.But something was different.Her usual arrogance was still there, yet she appeared uncomfortable.Her gaze moved from my face to the bandages covering my chest and arms.Then she looked at the IV drip connected to my hand.Her expression changed slightly.She removed her sunglasses.Her eyes were slightly swollen, and there were faint traces of yesterday's makeup beneath them.For several seconds, she stared at me.She cleared her throat before speakin

Chapter: enough money to save herEthan’s P.O.V.Every inch of my body started screaming in pain when I tried to move a little.I felt as if I was beaten to death.“Mr Vance. How are you feeling now?” I stopped groaning when I heard someone calling my name.I wanted to open my eyes, but my eyelids felt heavy.“Don’t force yourself, Mr. Vance. You fainted last night due to your injuries, blood loss, and severe exhaustion. Your vitals are stable for now, but you are still weak.” The person continued explaining things, but my mind caught only two words.Injuries..Blood loss….Then came the memories…The memories of crash..My whole body jolted awake, and I snapped open my eyes.Despite the jolts of pain shooting everywhere in my body, I moved my head towards the person standing beside me.It was a nurse, adjusting the IV drip.“Mo..m…. My mom… she is in ICU.” My voice was hoarse, and my throat was so parched that every word coming out scratched my throat.“Hey! Don’t move. You have broken ribs.” She pressed her hand on

Chapter: he got the moneyEthan’s P.O.V.For several seconds, I couldn't bring myself to touch my pocket.I could hear the violent pounding of my heart.It was so loud that all the noises around me vanished.I had been using the same banking application for years, and I could recognise that sound even in my sleep.But what if I heard it wrong?What if it was another notification from that ridiculous game?Or worse, what if someone had deliberately programmed the application to imitate my bank's notification sound?I couldn't bear another disappointment.Not tonight.I had already suffered enough humiliation, desperation, and helplessness for one night.For a brief moment, I wanted to pretend I hadn't heard anything.But my resolution wavered the second my gaze moved towards the ICU lobby.The thought of Mom lying unconscious in the ICU forced me to reach for my phone.My fingers trembled as I pulled it out of my pocket.The screen was still badly cracked, but the display had returned to normal.A notification

Chapter: a mysterious gameEthan’s frown deepened.He didn’t remember installing any game app that had this kind of setting.The notification had appeared over a black icon bearing a strange silver emblem.He instantly opened his phone and looked for that emblem.That silver emblem was sitting among his other apps as though it had always been there.As a software developer, his first instinct was to uninstall the app and run a virus checker.However, in his haste, he accidentally clicked on the icon.He grimaced and tried to close the app, but his damaged phone wasn’t responding properly.The screen flickered, and the usual navigation buttons had stopped working.He had more important things to worry about than a suspicious application.His mother needed surgery, and he still had to figure out how to arrange the money.Therefore, he decided to wait for the application to open completely so that he could close it properly and uninstall it.The screen remained blank for several seconds.Then a faint metallic soun

Chapter: no one to helpEthan didn’t know how he got back to the hospital.His mind was completely numb, and he walked back from the club to the hospital in heavy rain without noticing a single thing.His mother was losing her chance to live with every passing minute, and he had no means to save her.He felt useless, and for a second, he thought about dying.But he knew that he couldn’t.The heavy downpour had washed away the soot, but it couldn't cleanse the shame clinging to Ethan’s skin.For three years…For three years, he did everything to keep his marriage going smoothly.He had given up his career, his freedom, and his self-respect for Sarah, only to be cast aside like trash when his mother needed help the most.His mother was dying, and Sarah made his pain a topic of their fun.He staggered into the hospital lobby, drenched to the bone, water pooling around his ruined shoes.Every step forward felt like dragging anchor chains.He sat down on a bench outside the ICU and leaned his head against the col
