Chapter 11
Ethan stopped his car outside Pink Petal Hotel, a four star hotel. Kane, who was resting on one of the hotel pillars, walked towards the Koenigsegg Jesko as soon as he saw it drive in."Bad news, Commander. The auction is an exclusive one, and an invitation is only extended to people from top families," He reported as Ethan got out of the car."Oh?" Ethan parted his lips a little and said. He knew he could get one in less than thirty minutes if he made a call, but that would only bring him the attention he didn't want."What atrocity are you cooking up now?" Ethan naturally felt suspicious seeing Kane suddenly grin."When I found out there was no way I could get my hands on an invite, I found a way to get the list of families who have been invited to the auction," Kane revealed, staring behind Ethan.Ethan followed his gaze and settled it on a man dressed in an expensive silver suit. His blonde hair was brushed backward in a boyish way, and he dragged a struggling woman with him."Yo

Preston Wilton stiffened in his seat. The transaction was approved?His darkened eyes followed Ethan back to his seat. He'd glance back every now and then to see if Ethan raised his hand again."You're not going to compete with him, are you?" His sister, Priscilla asked without sparing him a glance."If news of this gets out, everyone will talk down on me and our family. I'm doing this for our family," he replied and clenched his jaw tightly."And for our final item before the auction comes to a close is Astoria Corporation, a renewable energy company that went bankrupt two years ago. The starting price is $1,000,000," the auctioneer's voice rang out, and Ethan's eyes shot towards him.Astoria Corporation…It was the top grossing company in Springdale for more than twenty years until they made some bad investments and ran into a debt of hundreds of millions. They had to liquidate everything they had to pay up but still couldn't meet up. In the end, the manager ended up selling it two

Honey quickly hid her face between her legs, waiting to feel the pain from Cara's hit."Who the hell are you? Let go of me!" Cara Radford screamed in pain as a tall and lanky man appeared out of nowhere and grabbed her hand mid-air.Ethan narrowed his eyes coldly at the woman. If he had been ten seconds late, his daughter would've been hit by another stranger. Another reason to kill Preston Wilton."I said, let go of me!" Cara Radford got desperate when Ethan's grip on her wrist tightened, and she felt excruciating pain from it."Do you know who I am? My husband is Jeremy Radford, and I tell you, you do not want to get into the bad books of the Radford family!"Three seconds later, Ethan realized he was prioritizing the wrong person and released his grip on her. Then he walked to Honey and scooped her into his arm."D-daddy!" The little girl shuddered in delight and held onto his neck tightly.Cara Radford massaged her red wrist for a moment, then laughed arrogantly thinking she scare

The eyes of the three defeated underground boxers quivered in fear realizing how easily Ethan immobilized them.The man didn't just immobilize them; he also broke a leg each in less than two minutes. This man is a beast!Jeremy Radford's expression also cracked as he stared at the scene in disbelief. The three men were underground boxing champions that he had managed with great difficulty to recruit as his bodyguards for a very high price.The mere presence of them inspired fear in people, so he wasn't messed with unnecessarily. He had spent so much on them, and they had clearly proved to be more than they were worth. Yet, such a lanky man was able to bring them down without breaking a sweat.It didn't even take a minute for him to render all three of them immobile. For someone who knew how strong his three bodyguards were, Jeremy subconsciously took a step backward.Cara had no idea what was going through her husband's mind, so she turned to him as soon as she saw his three bodyguard

"N-no, please. This wasn't me. This was the idea of Hamon Lauthner, the head of the Lauthner family!" Gauche Stokes shuddered and crawled backward.Previously, he thought 50 goons would be more than enough to take care of both Ethan and Kane. But after witnessing Kane beat up the goons in less than five minutes, he realized there was more to Kane than met the eyes."Hamon Lauthner did this? How disappointing. And I thought he'd be a worthy opponent since he's the head of the Lauthner family. That family is a bunch of sissies." Kane creased his brows."P-please spare me, sir. I beg you! I will leave Springdale and never return. Please!" Gauche begged, getting on his knees."Shut up!" Kane's thunderous voice was accompanied with a hard glare, which forced Gauche to stop talking.Kane proceeded to take out his phone and placed a call to Ethan.Ethan was still in the car with Honey and Claire when Kane's call came in. He slowed down and pressed the phone against his ear."We underestimate

Eric's eyes quickly assessed the tall and lanky man standing in the middle of the room; then, the corners of his lips curled up in contempt."So, you are the bastard who laid your filthy hands on my son. Those hands of yours, I intend to break them," he snorted."What was the noise earlier?" Jonas shifted his attention to the person who walked in with Ethan.The man scurried over to his side and pointed at Ethan. "He rammed into the gate with his car, pulling it down as he drove into the compound.""The William family was right; you deserve to be taught a lesson. Even if you work 24 hours every day for the rest of your life, you'll never be able to purchase the gate you just pulled down. Consider that another offense," Eric's face darkened.Ethan stared at him blandly. He didn't need to say anything for them to know he wasn't taking them seriously."I heard you gave the William family a condition before you continue doing business again with them; either they get me to come here, or m

Topper Kingston burst into laughter upon hearing Ethan."Being in Battalion number 1 has been the dream of many young men and women in the army. However, it's just a dream and will always remain that way. So I won't judge you for what you just said because I too had the same dream." The man harrumphed amidst laughter, looking at Ethan like he was looking at some fool."You, a member and Commander of the formidable 1st Battalion? Hmph! Talk about an idiot who only knows cheap talk!" Jonas scoffed, wheeling himself around to take a closer look at Ethan."You may have gotten into the army and made it to the rank of a Corporal, but that's all you'll ever get to be!""Topper is kind enough to let you off the hook for saying that, but the Kendrick family never will!" Eric seconded, walking closer to his son."Did you really think being in the army is capable of scaring off the Kendrick family? While common folks respect and take those in the army seriously, we; the ones at the top of the py

"Boss? You're delusional if you think this little show of strength can cripple the Kendrick family. When we come for you two, Ethan Black won't be able to protect himself, let alone protect you." Jonas immediately laughed out in mockery."The Kendrick family has been existing for decades and will continue to exist. Unfortunately for you, you'll be the last of your lineage!""Why the silence? If physical strength were more important than wealth, numerous families would prioritize it. So don't be fooled into believing someone as wretched as him can be your master, provided you do everything he asks. It's not too late for the Kendrick family to accept you back. All you have to do is do away with this wretched eyesore right here and now!" Eric spat out in a venomous tone.A short silence ensued. It was during this time that a thoughtful Ethan reasoned out loud, "The Kendrick family has been around for decades, and you're barely a first-tier family? That's embarrassing."Eric's face turned

When Chloe arrived at the Kendrick family house and saw their gate pulled down with Ethan's car in the middle of the compound, she became even more flustered.Ethan had caused such a scene; given what she knew about them, they'd never let this slide.So, when she rushed into the living room and saw someone pointing a revolver at Ethan, she panicked and called out to him, "Ethan!"Before she could blink, she saw the man with the revolver shift it towards her. Her brain instinctively issued a command for her to close her eyes.Even though she hadn't been shot before, she had watched numerous movies and heard about the experiences of people who have been shot before. From their experiences, it was a pain worse than death.She had her eyelids tightly pressed together, awaiting the pain. But one second turned into ten, and she slowly peeled her eyes open to see why she was yet to feel the effect of the bullet.Ethan's gentle smile as he towered over her was the first thing her eyes met."E

"Ah!" Jonas screamed in agony as blood spilled from the bullet wound on his thigh. Steven had shot his broken leg."Whatever you think you're doing, stop it! Right now!" Eric ordered sternly and tried to move toward his son, but Steven pressed the other revolver to the side of his head again."You don't seem to get it, do you? Right now, I'm the one everyone should listen to because I've got the gun," Steven said coldly."If Jonas doesn't get immediate medical attention, he'd bleed to death. Let's halt whatever this is until we are certain he'd be fine," Eric gritted his teeth worriedly, glancing at his son who was writhing in pain."That is none of my business, Eric. In fact…"Steven placed both revolvers on the floor, kicked one towards Jonas, and the other to Eric's foot."Pick up the revolvers and aim them at yourselves. The first person to pull the trigger lives," he announced with a broad smile."You don't know what you're doing, Steven. Are you sure you really want to do this?"
